Yesterday, we covered a guide by XDA Recognized Developer Dees_Troy on compiling TWRP recovery. As powerful, user friendly, and customizable as TWRP is, some people still prefer other recoveries such as the popular ClockworkMod Recovery. Yes, we're aware that there's the automated CWM Recovery Builder, which turns the whole affair into a point-and-click affair. But let's face it: The...

Unofficial CWM Recovery Port for the Ouya

Will Verduzco May 27, 2013

Some time ago, we gave the Android-powered Ouya game console a place in our forums. Since then, we've not heard too much about this curious little non-phone/tablet device other than a guide to help users connect via ADB, sideload apps, and obtain root access and some as of yet fruitless efforts towards UART and Play Store access.

liwen January 29, 2012

We've previously shown you some touch-enabled recoveries: for one, the fully touch-based 4EXT Recovery Touch, but also modded CWM versions. However, both had their own shortcomings; while the modded CWM versions use on-screen buttons which emulate the functions of hardware keys, without taking full advantage of the touchscreen, not everyone might be willing to change...
