Ok I have switched back to clockwork, as much as I don't want to bc I like TWRP alot I don't want any problems. But I will be back as soon as I see its stable enough for my liking.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
The majority of users haven't had any issues with TWRP thus far. We spent a while helping one person in our IRC channel (#twrp on Freenode) today and as best we could tell, he had a lot of bad blocks that suddenly showed up in his boot partition. We're using dd to read and write the backups for the boot partition. If there is a problem with TWRP then the problem actually lies with dd, though we could attempt to use a different method for backup and restore. If anyone would like feel free to come to our IRC channel and we'll be happy to help you in any way that we can.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jeremydk:
You guys rocked. Thanks for the help :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
nvm... we're still working on it.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
This happened to me a while back
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
Because of a few cases of boot corruption, I would like to ask everyone to please do not restore BOOT partitions for now, we have a fix already done, but we are going to test diligently first before updating. So please, I repeat, DO NOT RESTORE BOOT partition. Thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
There is something wrong with nandroid restore. I flashed trinity over matr1x, and for whatever reason, it won't load the radio. So I restored my deck+matrix (compressed) backup. Still no signal. So I restored my stock+matrix (uncompressed) backup. Still no signal, and it's still showing the trinity splash screen. I had to flash cwm and restore my most recent backup from there to get it restored properly.

Edit: This is probably all due to my not restoring the boot image.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
Probably module mismatch?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Once i have the source, what are the commands for building this?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
New version now uses the same basic method as CWM for backing up the boot partition, so it should be perfectly save for NS4G. It has been thoroughly tested by our internal testers. Please feel free to give it a try. Thanks for your patience.

There's a link to the latest source on our website. You'd basically just follow the directions to build CM from source and download all of the CM source (Google for a guide). Once you have the CM source, remove/replace the bootable/recovery folder with our source and do a make recoveryimage to build it yourself.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Igotsanevo4g:
Guess I was one of the lucky ones with no issues. But hey, ill take an update :D
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Cool thanks. Recovery is great by the way. Thanks so much
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] thedudejdog:
On the latest update, I just did a nandroid restore. Saved by the bell
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] cdw9800:
nice recovery but seems to restore to google normal recovery after boot
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
I checked TWRP under "BACKUPS" and found my backup but "boot.win is 0 kb. What's that about? If i restore this backup, it will most certainly fail on boot, right? A 0 kb boot.win is not correct huh?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] thedudejdog:
What is "twrp spam" and why should I toggle it?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
Rename /etc/install-recovery.sh to /etc/install-recovery.sh.bak .

Mine is 8 MB. Hopefully, it would error out at the md5 check.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
In v1.0.3, if your boot.win is not the same size as your boot partition, it will not restore. That is part of the "Double checking file size" message you will see while restoring.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
When backing up or restoring, you will see single line output of what files are being backed up and or restored. If you turn on twrp spam, all that output will accumulate. Which looks kinda cool. It doesn't have anything to do with advertisement :p
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Yes. So y did that happen?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
I don't know, in a perfect world it shouldn't have happened. Is the accompanying md5 file correct?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes it seems to match my md5. Im attaching my boot.win and boot.win.md5(renamed to boot.win.md5.txt so windows could read it). Also put boot.win in a zip so i could attach it. Any help would be great. I know you guys are busy.

This would for sure put me in fastboot. I wish i know what happened. I really want to use this recovery.

I used CheckSum Tool to get the md5 of boot.win. boot.win.checksum-result.MD5.txt is the result of this.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] AssassinsLament:
hmm... I don't know what happened, we'll have to put another level of error checking on backups. Try to make a new backup of your boot partition and let me know what the size of it is.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
I just did a fresh backup and the new boot.win is still 0 kb. Oh well. Thanks anyways.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
I am really liking this new recovery option - over cwm - but I still believe it needs some work. I would appreciate a really conservative theme. Also, I noticed when you navigate to the install zip menu, you are given the option to wipe cache and dalvik at once. I believe this should be accessible from the wipe menu as well. Just my 2 cents.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] stillblood:
I get this error when I try to flash any rom. The zips work in cwm
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Smurph82:
Just tried out this recovery and it shows a lot of promise. I had one question, when I selected the efs partition it only created a efs.win.md5 which was 0 kbs. Just wanted to know if I missed something our is there still a problem with the efs partition, which contains the wimax keys.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
If you and snandlal have the time, could you please stop by #twrp on Freenode. Our own testers are unable to reproduce these issues so this is probably specific to your device or configuration. We'll need to work with you directly to resolve the issues.

If you don't know how to deal with IRC, then just click this link.

You can find a preview of the themes here. I feel like the default theme (Team Win) is pretty conservative, as is the CyanogenMod theme. I don't think it gets any more conservative than the Greyballer theme though.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] anaglich:
Just being picky, I think your logo and progress bar should match each individual theme.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] bearsblack:
this.. is.. AWESOME!! thank you guys so much for this greatness!

btw, i flashed this using this method and it seems to be working just fine:

I am working on amon ra recovery and im at a stand still. Can't get the sdcard to mount. Any help would be great. Here is what i have so far.

extract amon0.img from zip to fastboot directory then:

fastboot flash recovery amon0.img
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Many members of Team Win were/are fans of Amon RA recovery, but we specifically moved away from it with TWRP because it would be very difficult to make it work with the newer emmc memory types. Amon RA is still based on cupcake source and my understanding is that updating it would be a pretty major undertaking. While the emmc compatibility may not be an issue with the NS and NS4G, it is an issue with the EVO 3D - the device that most Team Win members use. Good luck with your port, though.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
I see what u mean. Having a hard to getting it to compile. Thanks.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Updated version should finally fix all efs backup issues. Be sure to download the latest. It's still recommended that you only restore efs if you really need to.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Been looking forward to your recovery. What is the recommended backup method? All partitions?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
Thanks for the update Team Win!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] raiderep:
That's how I do it, works like a charm ;)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
So I had an issue flashing this mod here to MIUI

http://forums.miuiandroid.com/showthread.php?t=7738

In recovery there were no errors, said it flashed successful. However, no changes applied when I rebooted. I went back to CWM recovery and the mod worked.

Both times I wiped cache/dalvik

Just wondering if there is something I can do to make the mod work

Thanks guys!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
So I flashed CM nightly 80, everything went fine. I then made my usual mod to center the clock, flashed in TWRP, said Flashed Successful but the mod did not take.

Again, I switched back to CWM 4.0.1.4, flashed the same mod, the changes were made.

Very weird, I really don't know why this is happening

EDIT: Here's the center clock mod I flashed in both recoveries: LINK
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Try flash_image by GUI. I can flash recovery with ease.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Thanks for linking the zip that was in question. We looked at it and it is trying to run commands that are symlinked busybox items. CWM symlinks these items but we are not. When we move to 1.1 we'll change our busybox setup to symlink like CWM to maintain compatibility.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
Thank you! Is there anything I can do to make this work in the meantime? Would updating busybox work? Or changing the update-binary/update-script
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
In the update script, try using:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");

or better yet:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/by-name/system", "/system");

unmount("/system");

Edit: The latter might require a different update-binary, such as the one morfic uses for his Trinity kernel.

...

I got my first bad boot.win backups since 1.0.3 came out. I've done a couple dozen nandroids, then I got two with 7.75 MB boot.win's. The only thing I did differently was changing the theme.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
The efs backup seems to backup only the visible files, not the whole partition. The twrp backup gives me 7.5 KB, but a dd of mtd6 gives me 6.75 MB.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] boktai1000:
Is this ever going to get uploaded to Rom Manager to be accessed under "Alternative Recoveries"? Thanks!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
Why? Get flash_image app or flash through terminal
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Using dd on mtd devices is a bad idea when it comes time to restore. It's a quick path to a brick. It tends to inadvertently mark blocks as bad.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] HareyCarey:
This. Flash Image ftw!
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
What would you suggest, then? MIUI borked my 4G, and	a nandroid restore (including /efs) did not bring it back. Nor did a full wipe & restore to stock. I have a backup of the efs folder, as well as a full dump of mtd6.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Dees_Troy:
I'm not sure what to tell you. You can probably successfully restore a dd image once or twice without issues, but no guarantees. We did fully test our efs backup including having our tester delete everything in efs before restoring and then had him check 4G afterwards. You might want to try reflashing your radios first.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Maximilian Mary:
I finally got it working. Thanks.

Reflashing KE5 didn't do it. I flashed KD8 & stock 2.3.4, factory reset, pulled battery for a while, booted, rebooted while I had wifi tether on with active data, then enabled 4g while I had active wifi tether data.

I'm scared to dd restore an mtd device, but I tried nanwrite on mtd6 with no luck. That is, it didn't break anything (a far as I know) but it didn't fix anything, either. And an md5sum if a second dump didn't match the original. I might try it later with oob data, or play around with nandtest or mtd_debug.

If your tester wants to have some fun, have him reboot into recovery while using active 4g data, do a factory reset, and reboot into system. Don't power completely off. (I think that's how I lost wimax.) That should give you a test bed to see if the part of mtd6 outside the filesystem will restore correctly.

I used ROM Manager and installed Clockwork Recovery and then rebooted phone. Once phone was booted up I used Joeykrim's Flash Image GUI and installed TWRP (I did not check either wipe dalvik or cache) and rebooted. After that everything was working as it should.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] a2k:
Wow, very strange. I just completed your steps and issue still persists :(

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] XfandroidZ:
I was having the same problem where as I would go to do a nandroid back up and it said my sd card was full. There was 13.1gb free space on it. So I tryed to flash the clockwork and did the steps posted a few posts back with no luck. So I decided to try and flash the twrp 1.0.3 version instead of the twrp 1.1.1 version. And behold the twrp 1.0.3 version gave me no problems it nandroided with out any issues hopefully this will help anyone having this problem. Hopefully they can figure out the issue with 1.1.1 as I would liek to use the most up-to date software.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
You can rename it. Their will be a separate folder on the sdcard that I think is named TWRP. Go into that file to view and rename any backups that you make.

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
is there a way to rename the backups?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] wild1z:
I thought that in TI Pro you can rename the BU's. Maybe that is only CWM BU's, not sue. There was a post a page back above yours that said you can rename, just no spaces. I had this recovery and loved it very much but I switched back to CWM for some of the reasons discussed prior by others. A touch interface would be killer!
