I have the same problem on my GNex, it's a real pain, the N7 & N10 seems OK so far.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mpmilestogo:
I have a similar problem on my nexus 10 but when I flash new roms. I get reboots about 30 percent of the time. Only started noticing on the 2.5.0 release.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] xdapooh:
Yes, unfortunately I got this a lot on 2.5 to the point where it became unusable for me.

Sometimes it rebooted once, sometimes it entered into a bootloop where all that came up was the TWRP logo, then haptic feedback, then reboot, then the TWRP logo ad infinitum. Even powering it off it it went back into that loop. Eventually I could get it into fastboot, then back into recovery, and start again. It seemed to happen most often restoring data (or maybe large partitions).

I reverted to 2.4.4 because 2.5.0.0 became a question of crossing fingers and hoping for the best.

It's a shame, as TWRP is a great piece of kit. I wish there was some way we could help provide more information to get to the bottom of this?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Well, it's nice to know I have company at least. Thank god I never experienced that bootloop, but I did get good at holding my breath for 3-4 minutes, lol.

I reverted back to 2.3.3.0 because I had read that 2.4 had similar problems (which I think the TWRP site claimed they had addressed in 2.5). But if you're no longer having problems, that's good to know.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] xdapooh:
OK, regarding 2.4... I didn't want to seem a downer but, yes, I occasionally get a sporadic reboot on that level too. However, it's night and day and it doesn't get stuck in a boot-loop which was, to me, the most troublesome. With 2.5 it was a problem from the get-go. With 2.4 it really was once in a while and so infrequent that it didn't seem worth worrying about.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
I tried 2.4.1.0 and it crashed the first time I attempted a restore. So back to 2.3.3.0. I was hoping to keep as up to date as possible, but I guess for my needs this will be fine.

On a related note, I've noticed that TiBU can't see inside compressed backups. A little surprising since ROMToolbox can.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] xdapooh:
If it helps any, I'm running 2.4.4.0 but if you've found a version stable enough for your needs, it's understandable to stay put.

On the subject of TiBU, I reported that very problem a while back, but heard nothing back in return. It's shame as it's otherwise wonderful.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] VivaErBetis:
Today I've done my first restore from a backup (TWRP 2.5.0.0) and it worked without problems like reboots. Just for the records.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] :
Is the navbar bug still in the newest nightly?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Well, 2.3.3.0 is now crashing on restore. This time at the end, restoring the boot. Might as well go back to 2.5.5.0, I guess. <sigh>
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] CaliLove310:
Why is my data partition so large.13109MB, it's making my backups fail. How do I fix this?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] impulse101:
It's because that is how much data you have in your device i would assume
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] DefinityX:
It's a known issue on this device. The data partition fails to restore at times. And usually the more data you have, the more likely it is to happen.

So far, no love from the Devs.... Yet!

Some have had success just waiting and trying again after a few reboots. Others, like me, had to go back to stock, then reflash TWRP completely. But you should copy your backups to a different device first. That way you can use them after you have done a clean flash of TWRP.

Still sitting in my corner with fingers crossed...
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] djd338:
I have 2 users on my device, so my backups are always approx. 1.5 - 1.6 GB. I'm having zero issues with backups or with them restoring. On 2.5.0.0, & after the initial install using Goo Manager I recall having some glitch or other but if anything's questionable, I always reflash over again using the app. Don't know...but twrp's latest works fine here so far with large files so it is possible.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Just wondering if compressing backups increases the chance for fail. Since I stopped compressing them I haven't had a problem, but that could just be coincidental.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] lKBZl:
Hm well I think that explains it. I did a restore of my first rom, tested one, and when I restored the old backup, it didn't restore any app or setting. You're saying this is normal with twrp, as long compression is enabled? I hope that's true, I wanna test some roms but I don't feel like installing all the apps and losing the data again.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Pure speculation on my part. But the failure referred to here isn't what's restored (or not), but the actual process within TWRP (usually during the data phase). I was just throwing out the possibility restoring a compressed backup vs. an uncompressed one might be a factor. I have absolutely no idea if that's true. ;)

I've never had an instance where data and settings didn't restore. I'm assuming you selected the default partitions to restore which would include data?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] lKBZl:
Well those partitions are selected by default. What I did was select all of them, to be sure I don't lose anything. The result was that I got nothin restored. That's why I still haven't tested any other ROM except the one i'm using lol.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] stonebear:
I am still using 2.3.3 with no problems, there have been issues for a long time on the Manta with the later versions. I used to have the link to download it but can't find it now, however Rom Toolbox will install 2.3.3 for you.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mistermidas:
Same here, I've been using that version with MINOR issues. Won't say any none because I have had that restore issue a few times on that version also. But after it restarts, I always am able to restore without a problem afterward.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] stonebear:
Actually, yea I had that once but like you it worked when I tried again.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Maybe you should try again. I know the prospect of having to restore everything from scratch isn't fun, but with something like Titanium or RomToolbox you can at least shorten the process with batch restores (in which case I always do a reboot since I have a couple of apps whose settings don't get restored properly if I don't). Like I said, I've never experienced what you describe, so hopefully it was a one-time fluke.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] wayne710:
No Data Restore

I had been using TWRP 2.5.0.0 successfully for a few weeks until a few days ago when I ran into two issues. First, when starting to restore a backup, TWRP would just reboot back to the recovery screen rather than proceeding with the restore. Then, if the restore did proceed, the ROM would be restored but none of the apps or data along with it. After two ROM rebuilds with Titanium Backup and the same result, I tried reflashing the TWRP recovery image but the problem persisted. I then read thru this thread and saw that a few other users were experiencing a similar problem, so although I favor the TWRP interface I have gone back to CWM Touch Recovery 6.0.3.0 which so far has been trouble free.

I will continue to watch this thread and hopefully at a later point I will be able to return to TWRP recovery.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] djd338:
Add me to the list with problems. Am/was on 2.5.0.0. I've been going along thinking all is well & making backups. Well, today I got in a bind & needed to restore one. Wrong! Nothing would complete. Most tries would hang half way through, a couple would reboot to twrp home screen. I think I saw all the failures previously described. In my opinion this recovery, on this device, needs some work. It was totally useless in my case today other than allowing me a factory reset & clean install. So I guess I can delete all my previous BU's, try again or try a different recovery.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
As someone who also saw his share of reboots with TWRP, and not just 2.5.0.0, I can say that in the dozen or so restores I've made since disabling compression, I haven't had one with 2.5. Don't know if this is a clue or a coincidence.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] scottypimpin636:
Stuck in a boot loop on 2.5.0.0 how do you get out of it? I've tried fast boot to power the device off but I get to the team win screen and that's it.

I've had it reboot on me before but it usually gets into recovery eventually.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Do you have a removable battery on your device? Try taking it out and booting to bootloader, then to recovery and wiping both caches. If that doesn't work, I would re-flash TWRP.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] scottypimpin636:
I figured out how to install clockwork mod via fastboot and called it a day

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] housry23:
Does the new version fix all the little bugs that were in 2.5.0.0? Just wondering. I prefer twrp, but have been using cwm on the n10 because it just works so much better.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] VivaErBetis:
I don't know but the new version has a new and very important bug: the backups created under 2.6 cannot be transferred to a PC or another android device. It gives a file system error during transfer for .win data files...
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] cien12:
I have the same problem
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] wptski:
+3 on that but it will transfer backups created with v2.5.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] cien12:
With 2.5 the file transfer will work for me fine.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] wptski:
V2.5 won't transfer a backup file created with v2.6.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] supertaco:
But the bugs are solved? I don't have backups...

TWRP 2.6 didn't work for me on latest bootloader, freezes on splash screen (CWM Touch does)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Koopa777:
It still reboots on restores, compression disabled. I'm using 2.5 0.0. It always works after 3-4 retries, it's just annoying haha. Is there any fix for this? Also will using compression work? Because if it takes 3 tries to restore anyway, I might as well compress them.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
There doesn't appear to be a clear answer (if there is I haven't come across it). I have 2.5 on both my Nexus 4 & 10. There's less storage on the N4, so I compress those. But I haven't had a reboot in months, whereas before that it was happening every 3 or 4 times.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] VivaErBetis:
Had the same problem, reboots during restore.

The version 2.6.0.0 solves it, at least for me. It restores the backups done under 2.5.0.0 without problems.

About compression, I think it doesn't matter because the reboots were done with and without it.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] halrulez:
I never got any reboots on 2.5 but now on 2.6 I get reboots all the time from the past month. I have to do backups or restores ² to ³ times
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] VivaErBetis:
In that case I think that we need to evaluate the possibility of changing the recovery because it's just unreliable regardless of the version. I've heard that Philz Touch recovery (CWM based) is compatible with the backups done under TWRP. I may give it a try.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Mike02z:
Thanks. That did it. I was trying to do a "Factory Wipe" and it kept failing. Once I did "Format Data" and "Wipe Cache" it booted fine. I feel like a newb now :(
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Grandroidster:
saweeeeeet been waiting for this ,TWRP is definitely my fav recovery ,anywho,i'll be trying this out tonight fasho ,thanks a lot man =)

Damn formatted system by mistake. Do I now have to flash stock img again?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Yep.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Icetech3:
Just curious if you guys could point me at the best way to root to install this? the guides i see on here install CWM and i would much rather have twrp...
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] momulah:
Tell me this. Is it possible to flash the aosp rom posted via adb fastboot? I already have it downloaded and to download the factory image it'll take hours.

Is there an way possible to transfer the aosp rom to my device via recovery/adb because mounting usb does not work with TWRP. Anyone please!!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] johno86:
Works perfect on my N10 other than the undersized noted in OP. Thank you for this!
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Icetech3:
Whoop.. working perfect, thank you... and just to be sure.. the proper way to go into TWRP is to hold power/up/down then choose recovery? Thats how im doing it.. just making sure there isn't some other key combo thats easier..

Ooops... spoke too soon.. can't see the sd mount to move roms over..
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
If you are talking about usb storage mode, it will never work on the nexus 10. I will be hiding that option in the future. See this for more information:

http://teamw.in/DataMedia

If needed, you can use adb push or adb sideload to get zips onto your tablet or use usb otg.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Lumsdoni:
Oy of interest, is it possible to unroot?

I rooted using twrp and then flashing supersu.

Just in case they get sky go working
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Randomwalker:
I'd rather install the recovery through fastboot and then install su via the recovery. But you also can install CWM, then root and then TWRP through goo, although I fail to see the point.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Icetech3:
Thanks random.. i did it all through fastboot last night, and you were right... it was more a issue of not doing this before and not wanting to ruin anything.. thus the silly questions.. on my fire i used fire fire fire which is like 1 click and done.. :)

DEES, mind if i ask why storage mount will never work for the n10?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
See this for more information:

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Icetech3:
Thank you, cleared it up:)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
2.3.2.3 update has full sized theme and decrypt support.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] johno86:
Installed through fastboot and the theme was still undersized.

Re-installed it through goo.im and everything worked!

Thank you :)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mldiroff:
'No command'?

So, I flashed TWRP, rebooted, went back to fastboot, tried to enter recovery mode and all I get is a red exclamation point with a 'No Command' message. I'm an idiot, I'm sure, so if I'm missing something, what is it?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dees_Troy:
Flash TWRP again & boot TWRP before booting Android again. The stock rom tries to replace TWRP but TWRP will fix that on its first boot.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] mldiroff:
Thanks Dees! Worked like a charm and now I feel dumber :)
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Weird... all of the partitions seem to fail to mount. Yes, I am using the manta images and everything is perfectly sized so I'd assume it would work. I'll try a reflash.

Edit: is fastboot oem unlock supposed to be so fast? This is much faster than it worked on my other devices... I tried a relock and unlock again and it still was instant and is stuck on the boot screen and twrp won't mount. :/
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Koopa777:
I agree. If you do try it out, let us know how it goes. I just don't like that CWM is sorta-proprietary, with it's ROM Manager and whatnot. Plus doesn't CWM not support script functionality(like flashing through goomanager for example)?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] wptski:
Try to copy a 2.6 backup to your PC or anything else for that matter.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Koopa777:
So I tried 2.6, and I could not restore a compressed backup made on 2.5, it failed every time. 2.5 wouldn't work either, so after 3 tries I was able to restore an uncompressed backup made last week. It always fails when data is broken up into multiple archives. I don't want to use CWM, but each update to TWRP adds more problems and issues. I love TWRP, but I need a recovery that works, period.

I sure wish the original post always included a flashable version link. I really don't like the GooManager option. At least while I'm on this trip and away from my desktop I can flash an upgrade.

No matter what TWRP is my go-to recovery.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Yes, thanks for the zip. I first extracted recovery.img and tried to install via terminal with flash_image, but it wouldn't work - "failed with error: -1." The syntax looked right. What does this error mean?

Has anyone experienced boot loops using 2.6.1.0? I selected a backup to restore and it rebooted and now won't get any further than the splash screen before it reboots. Fortunately I can still get into the bootloader.

This is with a Nexus 10.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] VivaErBetis:
The nexus 10 TWRP has bootloops almost in all recovery fails. For instance, if you try to make a backup without enough free space you get a nice boot loop :confused:

But I never experienced one in my nexus 4.

No problems on my side: Nexus 10 and twrp (2.6.1.0) are running fine!

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
It's been a while since I had to restore but something is keeping my CPU running at 80%, so I ended up flashing 2.5 and doing a clean install. But I also have never had a problem with my N4 with any version of TWRP, only the N10.

This was different though. Normally the fails (always during data restore) would result in a restart and the second attempt would work. This time I couldn't get past the splash and it would continue to reboot spontaneously. :confused:
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Dvanzutphenkann:
When I wiping clean to install a new ROM I first factory reset after that I go to the advanced wipe to choose the 5 options like dalvik and data and so on my question is before I enter advanced I see the format system option but it tells me I'll lose encryption among other things is it safe to do as long as I have a nandroid back up to get the cleanest install of a new ROM?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] aaron.bufc:
With the latest release I am unable to use the reboot menu witihn TWRP after flashing ROM/GAPPS etc. Im forced to hard reboot which only brings me back into recovery. Had to use laptop to force a reboot into the ROM which i had just flashed. Going to try an older version.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] bruce7373:
Yeah, personally I'm sticking with 2.5.0.0 for now.

[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Bigralphn:
The only issue I had was that Goo manager will not update the script using the install open recovery function. I must have tried 6 times. It said I succeeded each time but on booting into recovery I was still on 2.6.0.0. Apparently it never worked on the. 1 release either. So I did it manually this time and all is well so far.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] wptski:
It has always worked for me, it does take some time to download/install. Are you waiting for it to finish or just doing other operations?
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] Bigralphn:
Yes it wait. I wait for all the prompts to tell me it is complete. Then I reboot and I am still on the previous version. I flash it manual and I am updated. I have been in twrp since the first versions for the Galaxy Nexus and use it on all my devices. I have had it on other devices but after one retry it always works. It may just be that I need a clean install of my rom. If this is so I will find out next update.
[Nexus 10 Original Android Development] djd338:
Are you on 4.3? If so, you need to change the download path to /legacy instead of /O. This is the same issue as Titanium Backup when it won't restore apps after flashing 4.3
