[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] forumber2:
Team Win Recovery Project , or twrp for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

BUGS:

-OffMode charge not working

-Repartition zips are not working with TWRP

CHANGELOG:

v2.7.0.0 > v2.7.1.0

-Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button.

-Various bugfixes to backup and restore

-Improvements to USB storage handling

-Various other bugfixes and tweaks

-Various other minor bug fixes and tweaks

v2.5.0.0 > v2.6.0.0

Notes about encrypted backups:

Why encrypt your backups? -- Most people store their backups on the device. Any app that has permission to access storage could potentially read your backup files and try to harvest your data. Encrypted backups also provide an added layer of security if you move your backups to other storage devices or to the cloud. The encryption that we're using is probably not strong enough for enterprise level security, but should be strong enough to make it significantly difficult to get to your data.

Encryption is using OpenAES which uses AES 128-bit cbc encryption. If you happen to use a longer password (over 16 characters) then the encryption strength improves to 192 or 256 bits. Do not forget your password. If you forget your password you will be unable to restore your backup. We don't encrypt the entire backup. Encryption is very CPU intensive and can be fairly slow even when we spread the workload over multiple cores even on the latest high-end devices. To ensure that encrypted backups don't take forever, we don't encrypt any other partitions besides /data and in /data we don't encrypt /data/app (or other app related directories where apks are stored) and we don't encrypt dalvik cache.
