Re: [RECOVERY][EVO4GLTE] TWRP 2.4.4.0 Touch Recovery! [2013-3-12]

Kinda. I just wiped a 64 gb sdcard on accident, and wasn't able to recover a lot of files because they were overwritten. :/

Re: [RECOVERY][EVO4GLTE] TWRP 2.4.4.0 Touch Recovery! [2013-3-12]

Is there something wrong with goo manager? Or is 2.4.4.0 just not downloadable from it? Ever since 2.4.4.0 came out, goo manager says they are no recoveries for your device when I hit install open recovery script.

I can not get 2.3.3.0 touch to work.. It loads fine.. When I go to 2.4.4.0 touch works but wont let me install a rom.

I dont understand why some roms install fine with 2.4.4.0 and some do not. On one of my LTE phones its the same thing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Did you upgrade your touch panel firmware to the latest? The latest touch panel firmware is only compatible with TWRP 2.4+, so that explains why you have no touch on 2.3.3.0. If you are having problems with 2.4.4.0, I would suggest rolling back to 2.4.1.0.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] budeone:
I have tries a few diffrent ones. I was trying for hours yesterday. 2.3.30 and b4 works installing the roms and once I go above that it wont flash.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Hmm, well did you ever update your touch panel firmware? If you did, just roll back to the older touch panel firmware (from 3.15) and you will be able to use the older TWRP versions.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
It's because of the update binary included in some ROMs. MeanBean will work with the latest TWRP as will Viper4G. I have some rooted stock versions on my dev-host that also work. Any AOSP-based ROM should work. Besides that, people just need to update their binaries.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DNarsingh:
Hmm now I'm really confused. If your are s-on then you never could have updated your touch panel firmware, unless you took an OTA or ran an RUU? Either way, I would suggest you s-off as well, it would make things easier.

EDIT: Captain Throwback knows what's up, just listen to him, lol.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
That's exactly what the person did.

The only way to be S-ON and have the latest baseband is to have taken the OTA - which means the latest touch panel firmware would've been installed as well.

It came out of the box yesterday and did the normal the normal htc unlock and the push of twrp 2.4.4.0

Installed superuser and moved a rom I use on 4 Sprint LTE phones and kept getting flash failed.

I had this issue but on a s-oof phone and put on 2.3.3.0 and flashes perfect.

pushed 2.3.3.0 on the phone and no touch. pushed it again and still nothing.

upgraded to 2.4.4.0 and flash worked and tried Viper and it flashes perfect.

Never took an OTA or ran an RUU

Tried a clean and redline vii rom again and no go. Tried another rom from Mickey and no go. It seems to only flash certain roms.

Thank you guys for responding. I will just flash roms that work right now until they update binaries... You guys rock!

Haven't been able to mount my EXTERNAL (removable) SD card in recovery with 2.5.0.0., tried checking/unchecking just about every combo of options I could think of. Anybody else?? Also anyone know of a free app to mount the external SD card?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Maybe he's talking about in 2.4.4.0 where if you flashed a rom that had the old SU app, the recovery would force you to install SuperSU. It would actually throw a scary error message that takes you off guard the first time you see it.

I haven't updated to the latest version but I know I had the issue with a couple roms. Maybe it's optional for the recovery to check the SU installed and replace now if wanted.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ASSAULT WEAPONS
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I'm pretty sure the poster saw me talking about 'updating binaries' and assumed it had something to do with Superuser. Obviously, it doesn't. But as far as I know, TWRP never forced you to install anything. It only looks for the su binary and if it doesn't see it, gives you the option to install it to root your ROM. But it's always been optional.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dees_Troy:
The words "force" and "scary" should not come to anyone's mind when they see this screen. There's a big "Do Not Install" button right smack in the center if you don't want it. This screen only shows up if we don't find a su file in one of 3 locations so if you're already rooted you won't see the screen at all. Probably 75% of the people in this thread have never seen this screen at all.

Now I will admit that it might throw you off guard, so you got me there... >_>
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
Well now, that's not so scary anymore and I guess force wasn't really the right terminology. It "suggested" that you fix something that was some how broken. :D The message in 2.4.4.0 was much scarier than that! Lol It said root permission were "lost" (*So I'm thinking, how the hell did I just lose root by flashing a rom) and just gave the option to "Fix Root" or "Do Not Fix" and you really didn't know what/why you were fixing it (always being rooted/s-off from the beginning, then flashing a rom and the recovery telling you that your device isn't rooted is a bit scary and scratch your head like WTH just happened) and what "not" fixing would do. Turns out, not fixing didn't effect the rom at all but I had to do some testing to confirm that. Truth be told, I'm admittedly timid when I see errors in the recovery because of past experiences so maybe it's not scary, normally. :)

Pretty nice to see the change in messaging and as always, with every release, advancements in what you all are delivering to the community. I can't imagine not having the touch UI and full featured recovery now. Amon_RA was the ONE back in the day and now, where TWRP has gone, it's just ancient and it was cutting edge just 3-4yr ago. BRAVO!!! and THANK YOU ALL!

*Why does it look for the binaries now, was it an issue before because you are probably right, more than 75% of users have never seen it and in the versions leading up to 2.4.4.0 (may have started earlier) it wasn't a check that was included. Not that anyone at all asked me, but perhaps a small tweak to the language would help still. Maybe something like, "Your rom does not appear to have the most current SuperSU. Would you like to insall now?". I think the part about "rooting" had me (at first) hung up and I'm sure someone seeing the message would wonder why they are rooting, again, when they "just were rooted". Either way, install or not, they are going to be rooted right? Just my 2c that wasn't even asked for but either way, I appreciate the work and time you all put into this utility. TWRP/Titanium Backup/Total Commander are required utilities in my book and should be in every flashaholics as well.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sharkie405:
You can download it to your PC from HERE. Then flash is via fastboot to your device. I don't see how TWRP 2.4.4.0 or any version would have messed up your SDCard. I think your SDCard problem is something separate. Have you tried reformatting it?

In your last attempt to flash it looks like your updater-script is trying to set permissions for /system/bin/netfcg, but netcfg doesn't seem to be in /system/bin. Have you checked to see if in fact you have that file in there?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] mrrogers1:
I'm betting since this is the first iteration if the All-in-one wipe, they'll tweak it on the next release. I still haven't updated but the "native" superwipe functionality was an excellent feature add. The TWRP team certainly listens and I'm sure it will continue to evolve.

Nice work guys, thank you. :thumbup:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I actually suggested this during beta testing, but the idea was to make the wiping process noob-proof. So not likely to be changed (though I accidentally DID factory wipe once during testing :rolleyes: ).

I'm using Rydah's HTC Theme, and I modified it to skip that factory reset screen entirely and go directly to the "advanced" wipe screen. Made my life much better ;).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
That wiuld be awesome. Can you let us know how you did it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Just a few simple edits in the ui.xml to make the Wipe button on the main menu open "advancedwipe" rather than "wipe", and then make the back button on the advanced wipe screen go back to the main menu rather than the wipe screen. Nothing too complicated. I would like the back button after wiping is complete to take you back to the main menu (rather than back to the advanced wipe screen), but I'm not sure if that's possible or not.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Quetzalcoatl:
Accidentally factory reset also because of that wipe thing lol oops.

Well if Captain can accidentally do it and has customized a custom theme to change the behavior, it obviously needs a weeee bit of tweaking. If he can accidentally do it, noobs (as well as us vets) are gonna easy do it. Owells, at least it's not the bootloader Factory reset! :D

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Dees_Troy:
Bear in mind that no matter what a developer does, people will still "accidentally" do things. We build a better idiot every day.

Honestly most people don't understand what they are wiping, or when & why they need to wipe it. The TWRP menus are correct. Most of the time you only need to do a factory reset and most of you are probably wiping many things needlessly. For example, I still see people mention that they do a factory reset & then wipe cache & Dalvik even though those items were wiped during the factory reset. And that doesn't even begin to mention all the people who wipe 3 times.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] EVOuser94:
Very true Dees_troy! Thank God I'm not a developer ;) no really though, most people do want something they can zip right through and have no worries, in reality they get what they get because developers build it the way they see fit :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Not gonna argue with Dees_Troy, for sure. Nothing but huge gratitude and respect. But I will add, often, I think, people are just looking to wipe dalvik and cache before flashing a small mod, and would hate to have accidentally factory reseted . Just my .02¢

In any case, HUGE thanks for the awesomeness you guys bring us.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] R32_Rocky:
I only use the full wipe when flashing a new Rom, which seems to be not as much these days.

But I do wipe cache & dalvick on an almost daily basis due to fc errors and such. So thus, having the full factory reset/wipe as default is an option not always used as much. Luckily, I do still look before I leap (well, this time LOL)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sladehawke:
TWRP 2.5.0.0:

I did the default wipe (which doesn't include any sd cards) and the output scared me!

I didn't take a pic, but I swear it said the internal sd was wiped. It wasn't, but if anyone does a default wipe, look at the output and see if it says the internal SD was wiped. From what i remember, it said data, cache, and internal sd was wiped. It didn't wipe the internal sd, so maybe dalvik was mislabled in some code.
