Hi everyone,

I finally decided to see if JB is available for TP. I am currently on CM7. I tried to install TWRP from goomanager on CM7, this error came up:

checking uimage... invalid data crc

I googled it, and landed on this thread. I saw someone had the issue earlier, but the problem is I don't have any recovery and it won't let me delete the previous install of TWRP or copy the new file there. I am using ES file explore. Should I be using another file explorer?

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
ES File Explorer is not a good app to use if you need to work in the /boot folder. Use Rom Toolbox Lite. The "Install Recovery Script" feature of GooManager deleted your CWM uImage, and failed to install TWRP. Instead of trying to use GooManager, download the .img file from this website and rename it uImage.TWRP and copy and paste it into the /boot folder, or if you know how to push it with ADB, but I have never used ADB, don't know how to. There may also be a recovery.default folder in the /boot that you should change to read TWRP. That way when you reboot to recovery, it will work correctly. BTW, you spell uimage with a upper case i. uImage.

If I were you, try installing CM9 first. CM10 is highly experimental and can be tricky to install. If you absolutely have to go JB, make a nandroid backup and do a clean install of CM10. That means uninstall CM7, and use ACME3 to install CM10. If you have been letting Android backup to Google servers, when you setup CM10 with your Google account info, most of your apps, settings and data should automatically download to your new CM10 install.

TeamWin Website

@ViViDboarder,

I was on the TW website, Touchoad section, and noticed the .img link said it is 2.3.1.0. If someone wants to paste TWRP themselves in the /boot folder, wouldn't you want them to be able to download the latest version, 2.3.3.0? Can that be fixed? Thanks
[TouchPad Development] gdfajkldfkwfj:
It seems to be working fine. I installed the latest version from goomanager in CM9 and flashed SCHIZOID 12JAN13 and gapps from goomanager as well, no problems so far
[TouchPad Development] proplaya422:
Thanks for the reply. Sorry for the late response, I had the flu and just recovered. I tried what you described. I was able to move the new uImage.TWRP (which I renamed to that of course) to the boot folder. I looked for a recover.default folder, but there was none. When I restarted, I got the same issue as before. However, I think it's interesting because it says:

Loading..uImage.TWRP... OK

Checking uImage....Invalid Data CRC

Does this mean I need to delete all other folders that start with uImage?

Thanks

2.2 didn't work for me. After I downloaded 2.3, it finally worked!! Thank you!!
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Don't do that or you will brick your TouchPad. Try downloading the file again, you may have a bad download. If the uImage.ClockworkMod is still there, delete it and only it. Were you careful about the way you named the TWRP file? It has to be an uppercase i.

If all else fails, you may want to backup, uninstall and start over and restore the backup.

Update: One more suggestion, go back to CWM6 for now. You can download the zip, extract the uImage.ClockworkMod and place it in the /boot folder.

New Update 2.4.1.0

New update , now 2.4.1.0

I've installed and made and run a backup . All seems fine don't really notice any difference .

What's new in 2.4.1.0:

Fixed a problem with mkdosfs that formatted sdcards to 2GB

Fixed handoff between vfat and exFAT on devices where blkid didn't detect vfat (fixes some issues with mounting sdcards)

Fixed problems with changing working directory on MD5 creation/checking that may have prevented unmounting

Backups will now store a copy of the backup log after the backup is completed (only if backup is successful)

[TouchPad Development] sstar:
Re: [RECOVERY][Touchpad] TWRP 2.3.2.3 with on-screen keyboard! [2012-12-17]

That is because you have too much in your boot folder the max is just over 32mb below is a snapshot of my boot folder which is 27.71 mb just to give you an idea .
[TouchPad Development] sina.1993h:
Re: [RECOVERY][Touchpad] TWRP 2.3.2.3 with on-screen keyboard! [2012-12-17]

Its weired but now its 29 mb:confused:
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
I don't think you get what sstar is trying to tell you. As long as you have your /boot folder practically filled up, you cannot use TWRP to flash CWM to try and get rid of TWRP. You said you tried several root browsers and none worked. He suggested you try Rom Toolbox Lite. Most other root browsers have a problem working in the /boot folder, but Rom Toolbox does not have that problem. Use it to delete the uImage.twrp and that should give you enough room in that folder to install cwm6. You can do that one of two ways, use ACMEInstaller3 or just copy and paste the uImage.clockworkMod into the /boot folder using guess what, Rom Toolbox.

New 2.4.2 Tested

New version is out 2.4.2.

I've made a recovery and it rebooted fine, didn't run it though.

Details of update

*What's new in 2.4.2.0:

Add screen timeout - screen will turn off automatically after 60 seconds, saves battery and prevents screen burn-in especially on AMOLED devices

Add a brightness setting (requires device specific setup and only some devices have been added)

Add a root checker and offer to install SuperSU if the device isn't already rooted........

Add a write buffer to libtar backups, significant improvements to speeds when backing up to exFAT target, minor improvements for other file systems

Check and offer to fix root permissions if broken

Add an option for a 24 hour clock display instead of AM/PM (aka military time)

Move stock recovery reflash check to occur during the reboot cycle

Add support for some MTK6xxx devices

Change libtar to vfork to help prevent memory problems

Add a "clicked" effect to most buttons, file selector, and listbox

Improve timezone listbox to be more like file selector (per pixel kinetic scrolling, etc)

Remove some no longer used settings (Forced MD5 sum on zips, size checking on image backups)

Other minor bugfixes and improvements
[TouchPad Development] steventrannn:
What do I wipe in TWRP when installing a new rom? Is wiping cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, & wiping system sufficient? And when, I update the same rom, wipe cache & dalvik?
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
Yes and if you flash via goo Manager it will give you the options.
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
Twrp 2.4.3.0 out

I have made a recovery and rebooted without problems although I haven't flashed it.

CHANGELOG for 2.4.3.0

-Fixed 2 bugs related to restore, one dealing with mknod failures (by bigbiff) and one dealing with restoring hardlinks (by Dees_Troy)

NOTE: If your backups weren't restoring correctly in earlier 2.4.x versions they should restore correctly now. Hopefully you didn't delete those backups. If you're still having problems, run the restore, go to advanced and copy log, then give us the log. Complaints without logs will be rightfully ignored.

-Added a scroll bar to file selectors and listboxes courtesy of Tassadar

-Added libblkid for more accurate detection of file systems and can now detect exFAT properly thanks to bigbiff

-Added a screen dim effect 2 seconds before screen off on some devices...

-Finally fixed file selector crash (one of the joys of working with multi-threaded software)

-Fixed loading of screen timeout setting during startup

-Improvements and bugfixes to screen timeout code

-Fixed persistence of the 24 hour / military time setting

Pardon the dumb question but I have searched and have not found any answer to my issue. I tried installing TWRP but I got an invalid boot error when trying to launch it from Moboot (0.3.3). Now I don't have any recovery available to access. I checked the boot folder using ROM Toolbox and I see a TWRM .img file there but I can't figure out why its not opening. I also don't have CWM anymore either. Currently I'm running CM9 nightlies but wanted to try CM10. Just don't have a recovery. I'm out of ideas and need help please.
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
A couple of things, you appear to be running an old version of moboot it's up to 3.8 now and people have been having problems with the latest TWRP (2.4.3.0) so you would probably be better off with cwm or 2.4.1.

It's possible that your boot folder is to full it should not be more than 32mb and if you are going to try CM10 you will have to increase the partition size with acmeuninstaller 3.

This worked perfect. I stayed with moboot 3.5 for now cause it's a stable release and I'm back to CWM. Thanks
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
The only reason to move to Moboot 0.3.8 is if you are having problems with certain games like Asphalt III. Moboot 0.3.8 also forces TWRP to create and save backups in a different named folder. Not a big deal. Easily fixed by moving one's backups to the new folder.

That's what I was reading but I don't do much gaming. It's perfect for what I use it for and I actually checked out Ubuntu Touch for the Touchpad which was kinda neat. Just needed to know how to start fresh.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
For what it is worth, I read over on another device's TWRP thread that they are experiencing problems with version 2.4.4.0.

-Updated graphics / icon courtesy of shift

-Updated exFAT to latest commits

-Fixed a problem with Samsung TouchWiz decryption

-Update SuperSU binary

-Fixed saving of backup partitions list

Hey guys, just surfing the forum and figured I'd pop in to see what's up :) It doesn't look like VIVIDboarder will be maintaining this thread any longer if you base it on a recent post by him on the Transformer TF101 thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=43394277&postcount=84

Since the TP version is an official build, might be a good idea to either PM him or Dees_Troy to see who can at least update the thread when new versions are released. I would PM one of them myself but I sold my TP last month.

As an aside, I'm using 2.6.0.0 on both my N7 and Nook HD+ with no issues as yet. However, it seems that the Galaxy Nexus people are having issues copying over their nandroids to a PC. It wasn't just one person having the issue, there were multiple posts. It appears to be some kind of permissions issue and I'm guessing results can/will vary by device.

Anyway, maybe my buddy nickster1, who I know loves TWRP :D can PM one of the above-mentioned people and get this thread freshened.

Take care guys,

Hello guys, I would love to get some help.

My recovery got stolen!

I actually used TWRP since the Gingerbread days and I didn't even account for the data/media things etc, so when I tried out kitkat and the repartitioning, I wanted to update the TWRP. Unfortunatly I can't seem to get the ADB drivers working again and GooManager always failed to even start to download the recovery.

I did a factory reset and went back to 4.3 and tried it again and GooManager downloaded and "installed" TWRP 2.6.3.6 "succesfully", I rebooted and the recovery was gone. Nothing there, the option is gone from boot completly.

No idea what to do, now GooManager doesn't download it again. So I'm stuck without a recovery.

Can you help me?
[TouchPad Development] jforme:
I thought TWRP 2.6.3.0 is the latest version (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/tenderloin) and I have this version on my touchpad and works brilliantly.

That was way esier than I thought it could ever be after all the ****ery of the last weeks. And yeah, 2.6.3.3 is on my nexus 4, you were right.

Thank you so much! The recovery seems to work again.

Unfortunatly, I still don't know how to tell her to make her backups into /data/media and not SD-Card or to mount /data by default. I want the TWRP to behave like on my Nexus 4/7, is this possible?

moboot, twrp and moboot.next

To clarify:

Some *future* version of moboot *may* lift the requirement that the OS

remove the moboot.next file. I did not intend to imply that the next version

would do so.

However, it is my understanding that the next version of TWRP will

remove the moboot.next file.

Also, if you name the TWRP image as per the install instructions (and

do not rename it to ClockworkMod), you should not run into this issue.

When TWRP supports clearing the moboot.next file, I can provide an

update that will set it as the default recovery. Until that time, I would

suggest not renaming it. Just do a normal reboot and select it from the

moboot menu.

[TouchPad Development] dallas.maverick:
If you have ADB, you should be able to do it as well. Have to mount rootfs, make a dir /boot and then mount boot. Once you are one, you can just list the contents of /boot with ls, delete unwanted files and just push your recovery of choice. I put some steps in leo's thread on how to do this, will try and search for you.

adb shell ##should automatically give you a root shell

mount -o rw,remount rootfs / ##this will remount the rootfs (/) partition as read-write

mkdir boot ##make a directory for mounting the partition inside of

mount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk0p13 /boot ##mount the actual boot partition

cd /boot ## Change directory to /boot

ls -l ## list contents of /boot

adb push uImage.twrp /boot ## Remember, if you don't have enough space in /boot, this will fail.
