Just want to be on the safe side, when i make a backup it can be restored without any issue using this recovery am i right?
While it is unofficial several of us have been successful at backups and restore.

It is unofficial because it is not from Koush.

Not if you are boot looping, recovery must be launched from within the rom.
maybe we could get hashcode to bring us safestrap. i use ti on my D3 and it is wonderful to have. you can boot into it at start and also you can have a backed up ready to boot original stock OS and then a second rom or whatever you want and you can switch back and forth.
Safestrap should be something like 2ndinit. I can try to port it, but I won't until an rsd recovery solution will come out!

So once there are custom roms...
Can rom manager be used to flash them or is it via recovery only?
If there was cm7 out for this phone could it be flashed as of now?

Cm7 requires its own kernel so a Dev would need to do extra work porting it to work with a stock kernel.

Anyone have a successful restore from a backup made by this?
I installed the apk and the app FCs on me when I try to open. Any ideas? I'm on rooted VZW XT912.
Get into recovery?
I f'ed up. I installed RAZR bootstrap, successfully created a nandroid backup, but wasn't thinking and did a system restore, cleared advanced/system, cache, etc, and then proceeded to reboot. It wouldn't get past the Moto logo....
How do I get back to the recovery screen to restore from nandroid backup?

Good morning everyone:
So as of last night, my TB now is fully rooted with Clockwork recovery, but all of the available recoveries are 3.x and I'm not sure if any of them are intended for backing up 2.2. Does anyone know if any of the earlier 3.x available recoveries will work backing up my newly rooted stock rom?
Secondly, if the answer is a confirmed 'no', is there a possibility to get this accomplished by flashing an alternate recovery such as Amon Ra?
Sent from my Thunderbolt using Tapatalk
Nvm on the second question, I just noticed there are no alternate recoveries available in Rom Manager...
Sent from my Thunderbolt using Tapatalk
The 3.x is the version of the recovery, not the OS version it supports. Your good to go as far as compatibility.
Interesting because on other HTC phones the orange recovery only works with 2.3 roms... Anyone been able to successfully back up stock TB rom using orange CLockwork recovery?

I was able to make a backup of the stock rom last night. I read in another thread that backups don't restore though, but I haven't tried yet so I don't know if that's true.

Not true
The new clockwork uses the intended update script called edify that made amend (old update script) useless
We on xda kept the old update script due to it being Easyer to write. Now our beloved koush is forcing us to update to the new update script so that's why cwm 3 was born
Hate it or love it your stuck with it untilled we get amon_ra

which kernel are you trying to install?
there is a new kernel, that you can flash through recovery, all the older kernels out there must be pushed through ADB.

Nope. Just install and go! As a heads up: It's usually preferable to make a backup using ClockworkMod Recovery/ROM Manager before installing anything.
Well I have a backup of my stock ROM already. Should I let it back up my custom ROM as well? Will that erase the stock backup?

yeah you should prob take a backup of your current setup. the whole idea is that anytime you install something, you should have a backup in case the install goes bad (rarely does though). having a backup of your stock ROM is fine in a last resort kinda way. but i'm sure you'd rather restore right back to your custom ROM should something happen.
I have Htc Flyer.
I update it from Gingerbread 2.3.3 to Honycomb 3.2.
I want to downgrade it again >>>> How can I downgrade it ?????????????
If there is a 2.3 rom for your device then flash it, or if there is a stock rom flash that. Next time you do an update make a nandroid backup, so if you dont like the new rom then just restore back

Yes i have ClockWork Recoveries that i manually named so i know what rom is what rom at any point i can switch to and from any backup and access whichever version i choose at a moments notice in my opinion you MUST rename them because you know the default name is something like "2012 08.04-12:34:26" just fully remane it so you know what it is!
Its ok to rename in rom manager before you make a backup, but never rename the backup file on a PC and then flash the file, it wont work

I have a noob question. I unlocked/rooted my phone using the CASUAL method and it put twrp recovery on there. Is it possible to switch that to clockwork mod that I am more familiar with and if so, how do I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Ah ok. From the 1-2 times I have used it it seemed fairly straight forward. I just know for things like CM10 rom it says install cwmod first then flash the rom. Is it possible to flash cm10 from twrp?

Yes it is. Just use goomanager to update it TWRP to the latest. Also I guess you could just use ROM manager to install CWM, but as stated TWRP seems to be the best for the note

Yep, you can flash it with TWRP, just make sure you are running the latest version.

Awesome! Thanks you gents
This tutorial is for people with A2 Bootloader only. If you are already on official KK with A3 bootloader, don't use this since it will fail.
A lot of people are wondering how to go back to JB roms from Kitkat. So here's a little guide of how to do that without downgrading back to MJ5.
Assuming you are already on Kitkat rom with root and Safestrap installed.
Please download this togetsafestrap first.
DOWNLOAD ME FIRST
Extract the togetsafestrap folder somewhere you can access easily. ( Credit to Drakey for togetsafestrap method)
**** First backup all the data especially your phone internal storage since everything will be deleted. *****
1. Download the JB rom of your choice and copy it to external SD card.
Skip step 2 & 3 if you are not on SafeStrap 3.7.2
2. Uninstall the SafeStrap recovery.
3. Delete/Uninstall the SafeStrap 3.7.2 apk.
4. Install the SafeStrap 3.71 and install the recovery. (please make sure it says installed.)
5. Put your phone into download mode by either press power, restart, download mode if your rom has 4 ways reboot OR power the phone down, load into download mode by holding volume down+Power+Home buttons for few secs.
6. Connect to the pc. (Make sure all the drivers and everything is configured correctly.)
7. Open Odin from the extracted togetsafestrap folder earlier. Your phone should show up as connected.
8. Put AP and BL from togetsafestrap and press start.
9. Once everything is done successfully, the phone will reboot.
10. Now you should see the Safestrap recovery splash screen and click recovery.
11. Now make sure you wipe everything. (Dalvik cache, cache, data, system under Advance)
12. Install the JB rom of your choice from your external SD card
13. Once the rom is successfully flashed, just reboot it normally and you will be back to JellyBean rom with fully working Safestrap.

Let me know if you have any questions.
All credit to Hash and Drakey.
Thanks to Conekiller for those who have trouble installing 3.71. Please try out the method he did and report back if it works same for you.
Conekiller2 said:
For those of you having the issue with safestrap 3.71 not installing the recovery here is the way i was able to do it.
Reinstall the 3.72 recovery
boot into safestrap recovery
wipe rom slot
flash (install) desired jb rom via safestrap
wipe cache/dalvik
go back to main menu
reboot and select download
odin files from op
reboot
setup as usual
install safestrap 3.71
it will show newer recovery
hit uninstall recovery
hit install recovery
done

So you're saying that I can use Odin to go from jellybean to KitKat and with the latest version of safestrap I can flash back to a jellybean Rom or restore a jellybean backup without the need of Odin?

You would still need the ap and bl file from jb to go from kk down to jb. So yes Odin is still needed. The guy above you is clueless lol

You can only do mods , flash and restore backups of the same android version, if you're in jb with safestrap then you use it to do all of those, if you're in KitKat now with the update for safestrap you can do the same, but you need the comingfromjb.zip to upgrade to KitKat, and this method to go back to jb. You can use Odin for any mods as long is the same android base.

Well that depends on the mod, if is made in zip format then you use recovery in safestrap no matter what version of android you're using, I think only tar and pit files are flashed in Odin.

Yes , the process is due to the fact that since we don't have an unlocked bootloader the different bootloader and files like modem and have to be done in Odin, that's why the two step process to go back and forth. But yes I just finally upgraded to kk, just setting up right now, to get safestrap added. I've had a bunch of previous devices and all got unlocked bootloaders so this was a learning process for myself too, but once you learn it, is easy going back and forth.

Ok cool thanks for the info and I agree about locked bootloader first phone that doesn't have a unlock for it so just wanna sure I know everything before I do it and since knoxraid thread is closed and probably won't be updated anytime soon think it's time to go back to jb and has anyone tried this yet?

If not, then just start back from putting in download mode and odin back again. You should get back into safestrap.
