Hey guys,
do you know how i can directly reboot into recovery and flash a .zip file via script for terminal emulator?
I think you know the ROMManager, you can download updates there, it automatically reboots into recovery and flashes without asking the .zip file, how can i realize that via script for the terminal emulator? cuz i want to create a updater for my and my friends roms
Is there any way to realize that?
Thanks,
Glenn

So, first, GlenniBoy and I, we're working on a new project. Currently we're using CWM.

as u said the rom manager contains the feature u want to use on the terminal for the roms want to use.
check out the rom manager apk with the apk tool
u might find a hint in there (a script or something) because i guess something like that has to be there
Did it work?
We didn't know, I'll try it later, but already pressed Thanks
I installed a long time ago a xrecovery using an android app. This xrecovery (Ithink it is the latest...) is still working, but my problem is that xrecovery or CWM are preinstalled with the kernels. So I have now 2 xrecovery...
Some one know how can I remove it? I didn't tried to reinstall the android app to see if there was a uninstall function, because I did not found it (and I was a bit lazy to use the pc for that
Uhhh just like reflash to generic and then redo everything you have done

i would do it this way so you dont break offline charging
delete /system/bin/chargemon
rename /system/bin/charger to chargemon
then delete the /system/xbin/recovery.tar
that will remove it all.

Pvy, I have the same issue. I want to remove xrecovery from my xperia x8, running on stock kernel with stock rom, but I don't see file with name "charger" in system/bin. There is only chargemon!? Then, when I go to system/xbin i don't have recovery.tar either. I saw a file named xrecovery.tar, but it is located in system/bin. Please tell me how to remove xrecovry safely from my phone and how to restore the offline charging. Thanks in advance

OK, I'll give it a try, thanks BTW can I flash CWM via xrecovery by install.zip? Done this way can make xrecovery to disappear and it will be replaced by CWM My final goal is to flash nAa's jb kernel in order to put on Mini CM10. That's why I desperately need to remove xrecovery in order to install CWM.
Sometimes.. you see apps on xda.. that are required to be flashed.. and are in the form of zip files. Now how are these different from apk files with their regular installation? is it something to do with giving these apps you flash a deeper level permission? if so.. if your rooted can't you just give those apps those permissions after a normal install?
Usually making them flashable is just easier for some and if you were to extract the .apk from the zip and install it from sdcard it would work the same. Sometimes the app may require extra libs that are flashed at the same time as the app so they are bundled together as a zip. Or possibly it is being flashed to system for whatever reason and can't be done this way installed through os.
There are lots of varying reasons why it may be a .zip but you could also install it probably any way you'd like (including pushing with adb) if you want to know what's in the .zip just extract its contents, if you want to know what happens when you flash it look at the updater-script

Thank you..! I have one more question.. in some cases.. you are instructed to "copy apk's to system\app folder with a file manager with root permissions and then reboot" ... why this? does this produce the same effect as flashing it?
I guess it depends on the app, but it may only function properly as a system app, and yes it would be just as possible to flash it through recovery or push with adb to get the same effect

Hello!
After looking into the issue of offline charging I did lot of research that what is it causing which affects offline charging and the answer is root and CWM, and I have found a fix to it NOTE : I have tested this method several times only on newly flashed ftf so I recommend using newly flashed ftf and then trying this , so if you want to fix offline charging you have to flash a new ftf, Steps-
1 - root using DooMLord's method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405933
2 - install CWM for locked/unlocked bootloaders : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2352920 until you don't root and install CWM offline charging will work but as soon as you root and install CWM offline charging wont work anymore
3 - open root explorer go to folder "Data" and then open "Local" folder, in local folder open tmp folder you will see many files there, from all those files replace "Charger" files with the file given in attachments and delete "Chargemon" file and power off your device get into CWM wipe cache and power off thats it! You have your offline charging working again even after root and CWM! This method is fully tested by me on several devices and it works without any problems so you can do this without thinking twice, good luck! Do report me!
There is no file named charger in tmp folder..... Infact there is only one file in it named init.rc......

You guys sure you are looking in the correct folder. It is /data/local/temp/
I have just installed as per the instructions and there is no difference. When charger is connected, the phone boots. Not sure about deleting Chargemon either.
Yes sure looking at correct location
Sent from my C5303 using xda premium
Hello, RuchRha,
i think that nothing can be. charger file is different in each locale. And it must match with locale/customize information in the build.prop for your locale.
Furthermore, it is also in my device in the path /data/local/temp only one file init.rc.
The charger file is in root / and can not delete or replace with a rootexplorer!
The Right Fix must be done befor you flash custom rom:
-before the flash needs charger in custom rom under /system/bin to be replaced with your own (match the locale of your device! best copy out of a stockrom recovery)
-in the build.prop of the custom rom need to be replaced before the flash even the lines for customize and locale.
So, don `t flash custom rom with false information for charger and locale. otherwise you lose offline charge!
+also pays attention to the following when locked bootloader! in our custom rom under /system/bin must be a recovery.tar, chargmon and ric available, otherwise you will lose the CWM after flash!

no custum rom installed after CWM installation?
I think that the files are present there only after the install of CWM. The installer copies the files there. After you flash in CWM a custum rom on locked bootloader this files receives anymore, because they then write directly into system/bin directory.
followed the instructions, but no luck.
even unZIPed the file from the ZIP and copied it to /data/local/temp
Not working. Tried for 3-4 times

hello rucha
tried but not working...
No need for a "Fix" if using DooMLoRD's easy rooting on a locked bootloader.
After rooting and installing the CWM recovery for locked bootlaoders and checking for proper root acces, flash the correct kernel in flashmode but select ALL the wipes, EXCLUDE SYSTEM and check NO FINAL VERIFICATION. The phone will start like new, but with CWM, Root and no longer the offline charging bug.

Have u ever taken a backup of any apk like systemui and then got bootloop due to another and u wanted to restore backup but now u hv to flash stock again?

clarify what you do you mean please?
first note,Aroma File Manager is TEMPORARY.
so,everytime you need to use it,reflash via CWM.
