*NEW* ! Amon Ras' Recovery v1.2.3 for the Dream 10/11/09

[simms22]

Thanks to Amon Ra , we have this full featured recovery for our Dream(G1) phones
this was taken directly from his xda thread . i did change the install to be done through terminal instead of adb . here is his full thread...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...51#post4647751

This is a custom recovery based on Cyanogen's v1.4 recovery.
The purpose of this recovery is to avoid using the console by accessing all features directly from the menu.

DO NOT USE the recovery command to return back from console to recovery! Use the reboot command instead! Some scripts (like nandroid) will not work properly if you do so!

Features
[*]full ADB access in recovery mode[*]Busybox[*]Extended menu (with keyboard-shortcuts):

• Nandroid v2.2 backup and restore
• Regular update.zip flash
• Flash any .zip from your SD-card
• Console
• Wipe data + cache (factory reset)
• Wipe ext partition on SD-card
• Wipe Dalvik-cache on SD-card (NOT on /data !)
• Partition SD-card : 500MB Ext2, 32MB Swap, remaining Fat32
• Partition SD-card : Only Fat32
• Repair ext filesystem
• Convert ext2 to ext3
• Fix package UID mismatches
• Fix auto-rotate issues
• Toggle USB-Mass storage on and off

[*]Scripts available from console :
[*]BART v0.9.2 (Backup and Restore Tool) : enter "utility" to start.[*]switchrom.sh V1.1 : enter "switchrom" to start.[*]sdparted v0.5.3 : enter "sdparted" to start.

If you have problems with a "no space on device" error, try using fastboot and erasing first:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-dream-v1.2.2.img


Change-log :
v1.2.3

*added squashfs to fstab (should fix issues accessing system and xbin for people using Cyanogen's ROM)
*Replaced the GREEN-key by the HOME-key for confirmation
*Removed the menu title to create more space
*Added Wipe SDalvik-cache
*Added Rotate fix
*Removed "Move apps to SD" because it's automatically implemented by most ROMs already.
*Added confirmation before performing a nandroid backup
*Set swap back to 32MB instead of 96MB when doing an auto partition SD-card from the menu
*Upgraded fix_permissions to v1.31-R3
*Added BART v0.9.2
*Fixed many bugs (mostly in scripts)

his recovery has been out for a while for the magic but i dont really care much for this one

its basically the same as cyan but with the options on the menu

its basically the same as cyan but with the options on the menu

thats the idea , to make it easy . you dont have to go into console and type out the commands . it does the partitioning for you , backup/restore the ext partition , wipes the partition , etc . plus that switchrom is pretty cool

[konzern]

ummmmm *shrugs my shoulders* its ok i guess

[simms22]

anyways , i flashed it myself . it works , and im definately keeping it

[simms22]

Anyone else try this ?

[notxel21]

I have this version and the same version but for the HTC Hero on both of my phones and I love it!!
No complaints here (It's based off of Cyan's and JF recovery anyway so it's good to go!)

On a side note, thank you simms for creating this thread! (One less thread I have to maintain)
