thanks.. But Im Asking About the rom of paul.. if im gonna use Cwm3 or 4 because on his V19 he use Cwm4 and im confuse..
flash via cwm installed in rom!
what do you mean paul.. im just flash it on my MiniCm7 pro v16? on cwm3?
ClockworkMod v3.2.0.0-r5
Only for clarification sir paul.. Im going to Flash V20 on my current rom which is V16. before i Flash it using CWM3 do i need to wipe all like the dalvik, battery stats etc..
I had a Clockworkmod "v3.2.0.0-r3" not V3.2.0.0-r5.. is it ok to flash the miniCm7 v20?

Sure, put your sdcard in your computer, or connect it to your computer with the USB cable and mount the sdcard. Download the PB00IMG.zip with root, flash_image, and recovery.img. Shut the phone down, and then do the VOL DOWN+Power ON to flash PB00IMG to the phone. Once done flashing, go in to the android market and download a terminal emulator. Type these commands:
su
after su, phone should change from sh-3.2$ to sh 3.2#
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
If you do that, it should allow you to do it without adb on the computer. Just remember to type the 5 commands in the terminal emulator.
I just talked to devs and they told me that It can be done, Just download the rom Manager and install the recovery from there without using adb at all.
You just have to install the root rom first, then you should be able to use the rom manager to install the recovery img, which in my opinion the clockworkmod recovery is a lot better than the RA recovery which is listed in the rom.
thanks guys seemed like it was doable but wanted to double check here first.
Guys my phone took a nose dive. I flashed back to global 2.1 from Eternity 2.1. I rooted via superoneclick. Installed busybox so I can reinstall xrecovery. Now when I try to install busybox it is telling me I am rooted but will not install due not being nand unlocked or unable to remount. Please help fast.
Update: I tried rooting with z4 still unsuccessful. busybox is in system/bin so I do not know. First time I have ran into this type of problem. do not know if is on my end or busybox's
1. remove busybox
- use rootexpoler mount r/w in /system/bin/busybox delete it
- download busybox in market and install busybox
2. xRecovery
copy 3 file /sdcard/android/data/com.zoz33.xRecoveryInstall/Xrecovery.rar/system/bin/
- chargemon
- busybox
- xrecovery.tar
to /system/bin/ mount r/w and past 3 file in filder
thanks I figured out that it was a bad flash file I used. It wouldn't save the information I was putting into it.
Here is what I believe is a simple way of rooting and installing CWM for Windows.
I have bricked my phone many times now and used SEUS to get it back to 2.1.1.A.0.6 and had to go through the process of rooting and installing CWM again. Here is what I have found.
Download SuperOneClick to a folder, e.g. C:\SuperOneClick
Create a sub-folder under this folder, e.g. C:\SuperOneClick\CWM
Download your preferred version of CWM or xRecovery (should be the 3 files "busybox", "chargemon", "recovery.tar")
Copy these 3 files into the sub-folder you created, e.g. C:\SuperOneClick\CWM
Copy the code snippet below and save as INSTALL.BAT in the sub-folder
Reflash your phone with SEUS to get back to plain 2.1.1.A.0.6
Reboot and set USB debugging mode
Run SuperOneClick and click Root - do not reboot
Once Root has finished click Shell Root - do not reboot
Open a command window and enter CD C:\SuperOneClick\CWM
Run INSTALL.BAT - this will reboot the phone at the end
Press BACK key on the phone at the Sony Ericcson text - you should get into CWM
The benefit of the above is that if you keep the files in the folder above you can repeat from step 6 very easily.
Code:
@echo off
echo.
echo.1) Run SuperOneClick
echo. a) Click Root - do not reboot
echo. b) Click Shell Root - do not reboot
echo.2) Press any key in this window to install CWM - phone will reboot
echo.
pause
..\adb devices
..\adb remount
..\adb push busybox /system/bin
..\adb push chargemon /system/bin
..\adb push recovery.tar /system/bin
..\adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox
..\adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/chargemon
..\adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/recovery.tar
..\adb reboot
This technique does not require installing BusyBox from the Market, setting permissions via Root Explorer or anything like that. It just uses SuperOneClick and a small script using the ADB program in the SuperOneClick folder.
I got SuperOneClick from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=515017&d=1297434892 (from thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950324)

Very useful, thank you. I usually spend a couple of minutes re-installing CWMR via a root explorer and it annoys me. This saves 10-20 minutes per restore
It doesn't work..
I bricked my phone 3 timies..

are you using the same busybox/chargemon and recovery tar that you usually manually install?

I'm used files from first post!
@easyyu
I am sorry that your phone got bricked. Unfortunately you will need to reflash your phone via SEUS. After that check your phone settings are the same as mine below. The 3 files work with my phone settings.
My X10 Mini Pro has the following Settings->About Phone
Model number U20i
Firmware version 2.1-update1
Baseband version M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel version 2.6.29 [email protected] #1
Build number 2.1.1.A.0.6
@svyr
Can you confirm that the above settings are the same as in your phone. This would confirm that the 3 files work for my phone settings.

yes, the above settings from about are the same on my phone.
Hmmm, just reflashed again, ran it and forgot to include busybox/rebooted.
Now it says it can't copy the files/files are read-only and system
Any ideas?
Aside from following the 'do not reboot' (edit: ran superoneclick again and it's all good (re-run the script))
Can't vouch for the busybox/etc set above, but the on I always used still works when installed this way instead of manually.

ps here's the one I use. Can't remember where the chargemon is from, but busybox is from xrec mini and CWM is 3.2.0 rc3
I made this, a lot of test give a lot of success, but it's only for mini pro.
CWM recovery by this script easily: http://www.multiupload.com/NDZB8HSIOV
Heres more easy way to install cwm or xrecovery or jit or apps2sd
this is basically quangnhut123's AAIS script, I modified it to add cwm support,
heres the link to download http://www.4shared.com/file/KQf9bym2/AAIS.html
heres the steps to follow
1) Download n extract the aais.zip to /sdcard
2)Open terminal emulator(available on market)
3) enter following commands
su
cd /sdcard/aais
Sh install.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4) choose ur option and enter the no.
plz note it requires pre rooted device! Only for mini pro! 2.1.1.A.0.6!
Why not try D4rK's recovery installer? It is a one-click installer which lets you choose from xrecovery or CWM...Google search D4 recovery installer
For recovery I made this: http://www.multiupload.com/QE60V6RORD
It works like a charm, thanks to the script xrecovery of mikevhl
Maybe someone could make a script like that for mini ?
D4rK's recovery installer ? I can't find it, even with the google's help...

when i tried it, it didn't work on sdk 7 or was it 8...
What do you mean by sdk 7 or sdk 8? Someone mentioned sdk numbers before. Is this something to do with downloading the complete android stuff onto my windows pc just to get the adb command? This is why I thought using the adb in SuperOneClick was so useful.

no, I thought it was about downloading the SDK, but it's actually about the runtimes on the phone... I think (the only way to change them is pretty much by getting a rom with newer ones )

- boot your phone into xrecovery
- @xrecovery connect with adb shell
- enter this script
rm -r /sdcard
mkdir sdcard
chmod 777 sdcard
-go install what you want to installed
it worked for me, but what I did wrong to get to this?
thanks for the tip

I had the same problem and i fixed it by updating the Xrecovery to v0.3 .
Found here ;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859571
Put the xRecovery v0.3 zip on your sdcard and rename it to update.zip
Then install the update.zip in your current xRecovery. Somehow my old xRecovery could read the update.zip and it worked.
I had tha same problem. My was resolved with a stock firmware downgrade. I've flashed my X10 with stock 2.1 ROM and after that i did rooting, kernel upgrade, xrecovery instalation..step by step. Everything is working fine for me rightnow.
Who can not succed with other methods, can try mine.
Sorry for my bad english

And yes this is my fix.
I first install xRecovery v0. 3 then i boot in recovery menu and i install xrecovery .zip from link above with that script, then i could install feralab v.03 rom.

been trying to update to wolfs rom, but lame thing is xrecovery, cant find way to get it to fully working version that allows me to install the rom, instead just wont load up the sdcard
have gotroot access, busybox installed, flashtool works no problem now just this last stage now is getting to the end of my tether
I have got root explorer so can copy over files to system if needs be, but am now stuck, as have already tried the method of copying files over to update xrecovery, also could not see where adb shell is to run the commands that ive seen so am stuck there
any help would be appreciated
What I recomend that you do is flash back to 2.1 using flashtool, then root, install xRecovery, and then follow the instructions in wolfs thread. That's worked for me and many others. Goodluck
