Installing CWM guide» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
NOTE: Make sure you have busybox install before you begin, you can get it from market by searching "Busybox Installer" then install it to /system/xbin/
It is recommended that your phone is at least on 2.3.4 firmware. If you're still on 2.3.3 refer above for upgrade guide.
1. Download FeaMod Recovery from
XDA 2. Switch off your phone and boot to downloading mode. (volume DOWN key + Home button + power)
3. Plug your phone to PC and open odin. place ariesVE.ops in OPS. Tick one package. Place FeaMod in one package file and then click start. Let your phone restart by itself.
4. To access your new CWM, switch off your phone and press volume up + power and hold it a bit longer after the samsung logo.
5. That's it, in this menu you can now do a nandroid backup (that's what we call it) to backup your entire ROM. You can choose whether you want to backup it in your external SD or internal but do take note that since it is backing up the whole system, the size will be big, it can go as much as 500MB. When you are satisfy with it, you can reboot your phone.
*Navigation in CWM is different with the stock version, in stock version you use home button to select but in CWM you use the menu button to select*
All taikor,
Good day, need help on the CWM thing.
B4 following the guide above, I've previously pandai-pandai install Rom Manager and flash CWM from there (I chose the SGS I9000 version as it's the nearest choice). This is as per the SGT 10.1 as I've one. After that then I found out have to flash CWM as per the guide. I've done it as per the guide but cannot go to the correct CWM for SGS I9001 already....
When I go to CWM the msg is : Feamod Recovery v1.2- based on CWM v5.0.2.7
When I try to backup, the msg is : Can't mount backup path
But i can to wipe data, any taikor can advise on the backup problem.??
Thks in advance
ok, my bad, everything is OK just need to "backup to internal SD card" instead of "backup"
