Hi,

As I was not able to fing a CWM (clock work mode) recovery image, neither a TWRP (TeamWin Recovery Project) recovery image for Huawei SnapTo, I'm planning on building CWM for that phone on Arch.

I was looking at [1], so to have an idea of what packages I needed to install, but [1] doesn't focus on building CWM/TWRP, besides I couldn't notice how the sdk and others under [2] were sourced, or included into PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.

So I have already installed:

android-tools android-sdk android-sdk-platform-tools android-sdk-build-tools android-platform

And several other android build requirements, except for ncurses5-compat-libs and lib32-ncurses5-compat-libs (not planning to install them unless strictly necessary).

However searching I found [3], which in turns indicate one should do:

export PATH="/opt/android-build:/opt/jdk1.6.0_45/bin:$PATH"

But then it also indicates:

. build/envsetup.sh lunch cyanogen_cooperve-eng make clean

Which I'd guess those are the initial cyanogen build steps, and depend on the cynogenmod sources being downloaded there.

However I'm still missing how to build CWM/TWRP recovery images for that particular phone model.

If anyone has pointers to where one can read how to build such images for any phone model (being able to specify the one for which it's to be built), or huawei snapto in particular, then that'd be great. Or if anyone can include instructions on how to build such images, then that'd be also great.

Thanks a lot,

Hi Javier, try to switch python to python2 during the build, then you can switch back to python3: $ sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python [ do the build ] $ sudo ln -sf /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python It's ugly, I know. Also you can try to use virtualenv2, it's explained in the wiki [1]. [1]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Android#Setting_up_the_build_environmen...
