cwm recovery for rk3188

[tdriver]

And particularly the 'RKAndroidTool' flashing method. I just tried terminal-based flashing and it worked like a charm.

did you do it with lewy hibrid rom for T428 and it's working? please post a link how to use terminal based flashing.

i tried again.....with the terminal window this time, it is not working. (T428) n is there a way to check if the cwm.img file has been loaded properly via terminal?

Doobol-u2-cwm-recovery.img is working OK !

Tested backup on and recovery from internal (nand) memory and external SD card (formatted by Android OS, don't know which format it is).
Don't work on external SD card formatted NTFS.

Thanks !

I do it step by step and I will post what you must write in red, the rest is what the terminal will show:

root@android:/ # [COLOR=#ff0000]su[/COLOR]
root@android:/ # [COLOR=#ff0000]cd /sdcard/Download[/COLOR]
root@android:/sdcard/Download # [COLOR=#ff0000]unzip term-install.zip [/COLOR]
Archive:  term-install.zip
  inflating: cwm.sh
  inflating: flash_image
root@android:/sdcard/Download #[COLOR=#ff0000]unzip T428-cwm-recovery.img.zip[/COLOR]                                               <
Archive:  T428-cwm-recovery.img.zip
  inflating: T428-cwm-recovery.img
root@android:/sdcard/Download # [COLOR=#ff0000]mv T428-cwm-recovery.img cwm-recovery.img[/COLOR]       
root@android:/sdcard/Download # [COLOR=#ff0000]sh cwm.sh[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000ff]wrote recovery partition[/COLOR]
root@android:/sdcard/Download # [COLOR=#00ff00]reboot recovery[/COLOR]

The last you must see is the blue line, this one informs that the recovery partition has been wroted, after that, you must write the last line (in green) and then the stick must enter in cwm recovery.

EDIT Please remember that linux is case sensitive. So T and t are not the same, write the lines exactly like they are in the red part.
