[RECOVERY] Working recovery with UI glitches

[joenilan]

I can only boot to recovery once. After that just shows the recovery bg image for a few seconds then ideos boot and then loads my os factory resetted. Known issue? or anyone else experienced this? It did flash my custom rom though and everything worked that didnt before as i predicted which was very cool.

Description:
work in the same way with the one for 2.1
added fixpartition and sdcard partition.

Thanx to xau for porting on 2.1 and give us the source code.

adb was weird for me as well with the Eclair port. If I remember correctly, I got adb working using files from perivarlura's recovery.

well we need then for kernel 2.6.32... now

so as a requirement what is needed for adb to work?
this is what i think its needed
1 - the executable adb file
2 - the kernel of that file
3 - de setting on default.prop= persist.service.adb.enable=1
4 - ???? the usb device driver for android...???? .......need to check this too
5 - put it all together on a recovery.img

perivarlura's recovery has a lot of files inside /system
all the other recovery i downloaded included mine dont have any files inside /system only a dir /system/bin and is empty
can you people check that please?

Oddly stumbled upon this thread... I can tell you how a very similar issue was resolved on a phone, but since I am not familiar with the hardware for your particular device, it probably would only provide you with the theoretical solution. Ok... whoever made this recovery (don't know who that is either). You made it most likely by building your recovery image by utilizing a (flattened) device tree, no? It is how it's usually done. You will want to edit the information in your device tree. and include a graphics patch suitable for your hardware. Let me point you to (someone else's) github and explain. The device in question is a phone.. but the same general principles apply.
HCDRJacob, a young enterprising chap who administers the HTC Wildfire branch of CyanogenMod... New device comes along.. HTC Wildfire S (gsm version)... He helps by building the device tree from his knowledge of previous model... His github for initial build of device tree can be found here: https://github.com/HCDRJacob/device_htc_marvel . So ok now an enterprising developer gets it and builds an unofficial CWM recovery.. alquez. Builds it, it works, but gads it's all pink and green (instead of the intended blue) [the graphics are off]. HCDRJacob ammends the aforementioned device tree here: https://github.com/HCDRJacob/device_htc_marvel/tree/patch-1 adding the following lines as seen by a diff check https://github.com/HCDRJacob/device_htc_marvel/compare/master...patch-1 ... Works like a charm So basically you guys probably need to get a hardware guru to modify your device tree imo. Hope that helps.
