hey guys i am still thinking if i should install this recovery or stick to CWM, any comments? Suggestion? description about TWRP? Screenshots? MANY THANKS :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
Honestly, this looks *mighty* interesting. I've installed it on my tablet, and it's amazingly user-friendly (y)

Now I'm going to take it for a spin on my W. If it doesn't work out, as long as I have access to Terminal I can always reflash CWM over it :)

So how is it?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Brian_SGW_CM9:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] pepoluan:
Haven't tested on the W, but on my tablet, it has a bug:

No matter what method I specified for wiping, TWRP keeps insisting on using rm -rf to wipe /data, resulting in me failing to install Crystal Clear ROM. I had to go back to CWM to wipe /data.

ETA: That was the experience on my tablet; the W's version might or might not have the same bug; a test is needed! As it happens, I'm planning to install CM9RC2 + CITK, the Pristine way of course.

Expect me to post another report re: TWRP several hours from now...

Build.prop check inside Goo Manager needs to be updated

Many Galaxy W I8150 with latest stock rom have:

ro.product.name=GT-I8150

ro.product.device=GT-I8150

ro.product.board=GT-I8150

instead of

ro.product.name=cm_ancora

ro.product.device=ancora

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.0.0 touch recovery [2013-01-29]

OK....so installed TWRP via GooManager and then flashed.......

CM10 a4.1 k2.6

JB Gapps

Seeder v7.....

Flawlessly......

Wiped cache and dalvic....again no problems.......

Rebooted the phone to DL all my apps from play store......

started up LBE privacy guard and as expected after gaining super user permissions, it caused boot loop. Rebooted into recovery to fix permissions (this is a known solution for this)

Fix Permissions.......FAILED.....

Re flashed ROM, gapps and seeder (didn't install LBE) wiped cache & dalvic successfully, tried to fix permissions (again)......FAILED.....

Attempted to flash SwapSD zip (ported from another forum for the W).......FAILED......

All of the above FAILED processes were completed without issue with CWM......I've tried reverting to CWM via the terminal emulator method without success, so it looks like I'm staying with TWRP.....just hope someone can provide solutions for the issues I've had......

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.0.0 touch recovery [2013-01-29]

I understand that in most cases, it isn't necessary.....but for those running JB who want to use LBE, it is..........

And there's still the mystery of why a zip file failed to flash with TWRP, when with CWM, everything went OK........

Sent from my GT-I8150 using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Dees_Troy:
If you want to run fix permissions the "CWM way" then run fix_permissions.sh via the terminal emulator in TWRP and you'll get the old shell script way.

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.0.0 touch recovery [2013-01-29]

Thanks for the help fella, I'm not great with typing T.E. commands (unless I'm shown EXACTLY what code to type) so I'd prefer to do it "as intended" in TWRP and have it work. For now, LBE remains uninstalled.......

But what about the zip that wouldn't flash? Do you have any ideas as to why? Does TWRP flash zips differently to CWM? Does it look at the code in any given zip in a different way to CWM?.......

The zip in question was created by a dev called jocala and is called SwapSD.

Anyway, enough of the negativity, this recovery seems to do *most* of what I need it to do, the touch UI is well thought out, and although I too have big fingers/thumbs, I also have a stylus....lol, so selecting some of the (admittedly) small options isn't too much of a problem.......

Overall, apart from the issues detailed in my first comment, the decision to change recoveries was a good one.....thumbs up.....

Hello my friend....long time OK....thanks for remembering me from the "old days".......

you know I still have the Wonder, but soon it will be my second phone, one to play with and try out all these new things on.

things have happened.........bad things.

but hopefully I am on the road to recovery.....again!!!

My nemesis, cancer, came back, and bit me for the second time, so I don't know, I can just hope to survive....more surgery!!! too much surgery!!!

I have a loving wife and 2 beautiful sons, friends, family, and you guys........and my little Wonder :laugh:

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.1.0 touch recovery [2013-02-01]

If you're using Christian Troy's CM, high probability that there's a TWRP that will run.

I know because CT's CM runs quite well on my Ainol tablet, and there *is* a TWRP for it.

Maybe you can check if your device has its own forum in slatedroid.com? Because there's where I get my 'fix' for my cheapo tablet :cool:

Keep up the spirit mate! :thumbup:

I lost my grandma to cancer, but my mom's a cancer survivor. So I know firsthand how they fought that damned disease.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] irishpancake:
Thank you very much for the support pep.....you do trojan work here, I have been watching!!!!

I will survive, until I die, that's how I look at it, no victim here......

same as everyone else, just use time and intelligence wisely, and hurt no-one.....

hope your grandma [RIP] had a easy passage, best of luck to your mum, may she survive and prosper in the best way, by being healthy and happy and laugh in the face of it....

I have a back-up of stuff to get to now,

my cheepo tablet is fine, it runs as well as can be expected on CT's CM9....did not go to CM10 as it seems to be somewhat incomplete??

BTW, I think Seeder[Apk] works well on the Tablet, it seems so to me....and no impact on Battery AFAICS.....

I am on Slatedroid, but can't find anything specific about flashing TWRP, so may leave it...unless it can be flashed using Goo Manager??

Then I gotta get to my wife's Huawei g300, and the best til last, my son gave me a Samsung S3!!!! no ****tin'.......

I think he was being incredibly generous to me,without letting on.....he knows how to keep the old man happy!!!!

And of course, my trusty old Wonder, which I dropped and smashed the screen of, put in a replacement digitizer, just about works, but hyper sensitive to touch now, and I can find no calibrate method for this, thought this cwm zip worked [link in the thread], but sadly, it is really no improvement at all.

So, what to do next????

Re: [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.4.1.0 touch recovery [2013-02-01]

Well... my grandma -- God rest her soul -- struggled... she went into a coma after her 3rd surgery, never regained consciousness, and passed away just when my dad and my mum was visiting.

My mum is now enjoying life, most notably helped by the little 2 y.o. bundle of joy that is her first (and currently, only) grandchild, my son :)

Yeah, development seems to be stuck in water for some time... the cheapo tablet vendors just created too many variants of their devices, it currently looks like a losing battle to properly test CM10 -- with its huge under-the-hood changes -- on all device variants.

No matter how disappointed we are with Samsung for abandoning the W, at least it has only a single variant, hardware-wise, thus enabling (relatively) rapid development cycle and easy troubleshooting.

Hmmm... you can try, Goo Manager seems to be conservative...

Wha... *I'm* ****ting with envy here... :p

<glances to my 2 y.o. boy> Hey son, grow up quickly and go buy your Dad the latest and greatest Android phone, will ya? :D

Now that's a new problem I've never encountered before...

Most likely it will need a component replacement somewhere...

Can you complain about it to an SSC?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] irishpancake:
Good....and great to hear you have a 2 yr old boy :good: :highfive: Hold him close and love him with all your heart and soul.....he is precious and individual!!

Our only grandchild, a beautiful girl, will be 4 yrs next month.....she kept me going during the difficult times past, you know, G+ and Skype, etc....thank God for the technology...her Dad, my son, is a s/w developer, and has been into this stuff since I introduced it into normal life in our home back in the mid-90's....I remember using Netscape Navigator with my boys back then....sigh.......

Agreed, I am very happy with the Tablet performance utilising CT's CM9, so I will just leave it.......I mention Seeder again, it does bring noticeable improvement by reducing lag in the GUI, it seems to me, so I am going to continue with V2 on the Ployer Momo11 Bird....it is OK for very small money, about €130'ish.

He will grow up before you know it...and then what devices will we have????

look forward to it, and I wish him very good health, don't worry about the wealth bit.....if you got health, that is wealth, believe me.

I would be ashamed to do that, as I broke the screen, dropped it on the ground, smashed it......and then I put in a cheapo replacement digitizer, which works, but has the hyper-sensitivity issue......problem with scrolling in app drawer, sometimes you launch an app by just looking at it :laugh:

anyway, thanks for all your suggestions and the chat, I appreciate it....

I always said it, this Wonder forum is the most friendly place on XDA, not very much whining!!!!

My apologies to the OP fror all the off-topic stuff, Ii will stop now.......

Latest TWRP

Yeah, it's true, the recovery has the SELinux functionalities, but the used kernel can't handle this. Like it was stated before.

So without a proper one, we can't get the fully fun and are not able to flash kitkat.

I have made me a recovery by changing the kernel and adding some files and it also worked for me. The log in recovery mode said full support

and flashing of for example CM11 was successfully.

I attach the img and tar.md5 file, so you can flash it at your own risk and try it yourself. tar.md5 for odin or img file for flashing through terminal emulator or anything else which comes to your mind. :silly:

It is based on the TWRP-Recovery version 2.7.0.1. and like I wrote above exchange the kernel and add some kernel files,

so it gets bigger than the normal recovery and may be not so good like a compiled ones from source.

Just rename the tar file to tar.md5 or try flashing directly the tar file with odin.

If you need photos as proof, I could do you some in the next days.
