Recovery with ROM dump

[Finless]

I have not worked on a CWM for a long time now. I am sure Randy can get one figured out for you. I don't have time right now sorry.

i try this parameter just now ...

edit: WORK !!! many thanks !!

next step is cmw ... if i don't bother you

p.s. is possible to have a PARAMETER with 4Gb or 8Gb ??? (if you tell me how i can change myself, if is easy)

Now that we have a working parameter it will be easy to do 4 AND 8 gig files.

I'm afraid I'm not the authority on CWM either. Fun has made several on his site for specific devices. Since we failed with the generic version, you might ask him for one for this tablet. Just share him the link to this ROM.

Meantime, I'll create a new thread for this Rom.

Randy, his error messages tell whats going on. The mk4fs binary is not compatible with this recovery kernel. Or the MTD block is wrong.

If you take the mk4fs binary from /system/bin of your ROM and put it into the sbin folder of the recovery. It may solve it. Also check the fstab in recovery and make sure all the block defs are correct.

Sounds good.

We had some really bad weather here for a while, so I was away from my computer.

I'll take a look at that recovery.

I've already put together some parameter files for this ROM.

There is no mk4fs in system/bin of this Rom. What next?

There is a mke2fs.

Is this 4.2.2 or when the stock recovery boots, what version of recovery does it say?

Oh and sorry if this is 4.2.2 the binary is called
make_ext4fs

His recovery gives that name on the screen shot so I assume it's there at least in recovery.
If's it's not in /system/bin then take apart the stock recovery and get it from there.

I think this is 4.1.1.

Anyway, neither of those files exist anywhere.


Randy

Thanks for your help. I posted a new ROM in the MID Rom section if you want to provide a link to it on your site.

I'll keep working on a CWM as I get time. Right now I have two other ROMs to get out.

i found a CMW working (i only try to make a backup and it work) but when i reboot to system the tablet freeze at RileyRom logo ... i wait 10-15 minutes ...

i found that cmw here

I think the reason it freezes is that CWM has the wrong kernel inside it. I'll see if I can get your correct kernel into it and hopefully make it work.

another test ... i try to flash your last rom with system from your PIPO M1 4.2.2 ...
rom start but with wrong screen and some errors in it ...

it's just a try !

[rrileypm]

Yes, I tried mixing 4.1 stuff with 4.2 stuff, but nothing ever worked...too much difference.

Yes, I tried mixing 4.1 stuff with 4.2 stuff, but nothing ever worked...too much difference.

I have tried your 1.1 ROM for my tablet but no one of 4,6 and 8 GB parameter file/partition works ...
6 and 8 give me 127Mb of system partition
And 4 give me correct amount of system but 0 for internal SD card ...
I flash 2gb now and continue testing and search for CMW ...
