UnOfficial Update To TWRP

Hey guys , I have got a lot of pm lately wrt to the latest twrp not being able to flash aroma based roms. Actually its a bug in the latest twrp sources and have been reported over here : https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/135

So I went ahead and compiled TWRP from an earlier and much more stabler verson of TWRP ie 2.4.2.0

ChangeLogs

=>Reboot within recovery is fixed in this.No more reboots when trying to backup! Thanks to nexusprime

=>All roms flash correctly.

=>Poweroff button now fuctions properly and all button press delays fixed.

=>So basically ALL BUGS have been FIXED now :)

FAQ

1. What is adb sideload?

adb side load is a feature in the recovery by which you can flash a rom via adb and you dont have to copy it to your sdcard all the time.

You can use adb side load by Pressing > Advanced>ADB SIDELOAD and swipe

Then copy your rom to the folder where you have your adb installed and type

adb sideload romname.zip

2.How to enable adb while in recovery?

You can perform basic adb operations like adb pull , adb push etc while in recovery. To enable adb in recovery first you have to use adb sideload as explained above. Then click cancel. Now adb will be enabled.

All working great so far nik . One interesting thing which I havn't had before is that my backups work with the updated recovery .

Previously I've had to swap back and forth between recoveries to re-backup my roms

So thankyou again :)

trying to flash via fastboot.

(bootloader) signature checking...

FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

finished. total time: 1.489s

my phone is not unlocked yet, i need a recovery installed to back stock rom first, as stock phone has no recovery!

Does phone need to be unlocked to do this?
[HTC Desire C] nikhil16242:
Sorry ,You cannot flash it without unlocking.
[HTC Desire C] russell664:
[MENTION=3335159]stevengw[/MENTION], look at some of the bootloader unlock guides present in the desire C forum. That should set you on your way to getting custom Roms on your device. :)

This is the stable version :)
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
For me, 2.5.0.0 reboots when connected to the PC using the USB cable. I'm using 2.4.2.0 at the moment.
[HTC Desire C] nikhil16242:
Could you try 2.6.0.0 ? They might have used my updated device tree for that ( Use goo manager to download it)
[HTC Desire C] aashay960:
Yes 2.6.0.0 seems to be working fine. No reboot on connecting USB :) Here is the direct link just in case.. https://www.dropbox.com/s/2wfyp4nsmn7fd3e/recovery_twrp_2.6.0.0.img

[HTC Desire C] fankool:
Anyone tried the last version, 2.7.1.0? Works, but I've never finished a backup. After some minutes the phone restarts and the backup is always unfinished. Anyone has the same problem with backup?
[HTC Desire C] kodirovshchik:
Nope. 2.7.1.0 works well.
[HTC Desire C] fankool:
I was thinking the problem could be the nope kernel @ 850MHz, maybe the cpu was burning? But why, using the same kernel, backup with CWM works well?

But we both want the same thing. To hide the freaking number when the contact is already saved.

I hope some developer finds a way to make this mode

I'm sorry if this has been asked already, but recently I flashed MIUI 3.2.8, I didn't really like it so I backed up my data/apps and flashed PA 3.0, but I cant access any of the files or storage that MIUI was using, it's still showing likes it's taking up the space(on phone and computer), but I can't find the files anywhere. I know I could probably just reflash MIUI, but if there's an easier way, any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krohnjw:
Go into device manager and install the ADB driver for the now unknown device.

I have the exact same problem, i used the driver that SDK manager downloaded.

In device manager its called "Android Composite ADB Interface"

but when i reboot Nexus 4 into recovery mode, windows does not recognize the device..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AdamLange:
Update adb.exe to the latest version (from sdk) , connect and allow to use PC with ADB in android for the first time, then it should work in recovery also

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handman29:
I did that, still doesn't work
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozzykid:
Install the naked drivers (found here on xda). And if sideload isn't recognized, your SDK is not up to date.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handman29:
OK maybe my drivers..do you know if they work on windows 8
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handman29:
Side load is recognized but adb can locate my device in recovery
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozzykid:
Did you select the adb option in recovery? If you did, then your drivers are not installed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsandroid:
same problem here, i just downloaded SDK now, and the first thing i did was to use SDK manager to update the USB driver..

it does work when Nexus is booted in normal mode, but not in recovery.

i guess this is a windows 8 driver issue.

tried to install the driver from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2019273

but it will not even install in windows 8
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handman29:
So there are different drivers for fast boot and recovery?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handman29:
I did a driver test from all in one tool kit and all the drivers work just not in adb recovery
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravneetg:
I had the same problem, on Windows 8, but while your device is in recovery, go to Device Manager, and choose 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers...', there you will see something like 'Android ADB device'. Install that, and voila! your device will now be recognized in recovery mode.

Sideloaded 4.2.2 on my N4 last night.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsandroid:
On my computer, the device is not even listed in device manager while in recovery mode, so there is no device to update..

wierd.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quiro91:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flintdragon:
if you are still having issues, definitely try the naked drivers. I couldn't get other drivers including the SDK ones to detect my phone that is in recovery/sideload mode. The naked ones worked right off the bat.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
Adb won't be recognized in stock recovery until you choose the sideload option.

Adb access recovery wide is a custom ROM feature.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whatsandroid:
OK, did not know that.

but still getting the same error message as the OP when i try to sideload.

and adb devices is not showing any devices, should adb devices work on a device with stock while in recovery?

also tried that "naked" usb driver that someone posted
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunny4691:
Did you try the method which I posted? I was having the same exact problem.

ADB devices should work while in recovery.

Firt, put your original build.prop in your system, or, flash JB again via RSDLite.

Then, open the phone app, and dial this: *#*#6686#*#* . Then, you're able to enable the option 'Wake-up phone via volume up/down'

[HTC Sensation] ahsan64:
go in bootloader and then use fastboot and use this " fastboot getvar version-main " to check your firmware . If you are on 3.32 firmware u can flash any rom but 3.33 is recommended as it is latest.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
Alright, so I got my Nexus 7 last Christmas like a lot of people did, and I've been having fun with all the modifications, CM 10.1, ParanoidAndroid, SmoothROM and stuff.

Yesterday I switched to AOKP to give it a spin, but for some reason none of my Google apps carried over like they usually did, so I just switched back to my usual rom and noticed that I was strangely going through the initial setup process for Android devices. Like picking the language, giving your Google account and name, etc. Except every single time I go through this, I get similar errors that the setup crashed, or gapps crashed, or something Google-app oriented is dead. Anything with gapps flashed or included that has this same error (pictured below) in the set up and I have no access to other apps besides elementary things like Settings. If I install SmoothROM without Google apps, it will allow me access to everything, minus gmail, G+, Play Store, Maps, Chrome account, YouTube account, etc. It's a pain.

Since I can't get past the set up on my usual roms, I decided to try a 4.2.2 rom since those are new and cool I guess, and it might work, idk. Apparently I thought it was more simple than it is, because it ended up booting after flashing and having the exact same problem, but now when I switch back to any 4.2.1 rom, it boot loops at the boot animation. Basically now I'm stuck with the setup error on only that 4.2.2 rom, because everything else is unusable.

TL;DR, I'm getting this ^ error on every rom I can use, and now that I've tried a 4.2.2 thing, it bootloops earlier on any 4.2.1 rom.

Any possible knowledge or aid in getting this to work without wiping my stuff would be awesome. Although if it has to resort to wiping/factory reset, I will. Backup advice would be nice as well in that case. Google apps is a core problem, because its apps are crashing, and the problem was nonexistent if I had no gapps installed. (However that was before the 4.2.2 problem.)

Thanks.

Also, this is the 4.2.2 rom I used, if that matters.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AssailantLF@gmail.com:
Alright, well I ended up being unable to fix the problem, so I just did a factory reset/wipe and reflashed SmoothROM and it's working like a charm again. This post was just my last resort effort to possibly fix it, and with the delivery of my MOGA controller today, I had to get it running immediately.

I guess the moral of the story is to always be informed before installing alternate versions of Android, and to know what you're doing with Google Apps, because they're integral and important to the OS.

(ps the MOGA controller is amazing)

Radio aka Modem is controller software for the phones radio/modem (in this sense these terms are synonyms) hardware.

A quick guide:

1. Go to 'settings-apps' on your phone.

2. Check the option 'unknown sources'.

3. Go to 'settings-apps-development' and check the option 'USB-Debugging'

4.Download and install the software from this link (for windows):

5. Connect your turned on phone to your computer (if its the first time you connected your phone, a popup like 'installing new driver software' could appear, wait till it says 'successfully installed')

6. Open the software you installed.

7. Click 'Root' in the newly opened window.

8. Wait for the process to finish.

9. Done! Your phone is rooted!

Now I'm trying to install a ROM, but the requiriments are:

Root and CWM Recovery already installed

Latest 2.1.1.A.0.6 SE firmware due to kernel dependencies.

My firmware version is 2.0.A.0.504 so I tried it below:

Force-update to 2.1.1.A.0.6

Grab this build.prop file and copy it to your sdcard

Using Root explorer, backup your /system/build.prop file and copy the grabbed build.prop file to /system/build.prop

Reboot twice and try to re-update your firware. You might need to force-update if SEUS or PC-Companion says you already have the latest firware.

Once the update completes, check again your firmware version.

Unfortunately, after I did it above, still can't update the firmware. Tried with SEUS and PC-Companion and both says that I already have the latest version and gave me no option to force update.

What can I do now?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Kilroy.:
Just install newest software via Seus, even if it says you have newest software (NOTE: I'm not absolutely sure if this works, only whenever I reflashed via Seus, I always had newest firmware on my phone).

Please press thanks if I helped :D .
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Crazy Seed:
Yes that's right :). You just need to install via SEUS even if it says that you already have latest version bla bla bla it doesn't matter just install anyway. The rest is just root phone and instal cwm ( for me i used unlockroot to root the phone, it never fails ), then just flash the kernel you want by flashtool and you're ready to go, the rest is just flash your roms and stuff xD.

Hi,

I just bought an adaptor cable for my n8010 to allow me to connect flash drives and other usb devices. However, every usb device that I have connected (a couple of flash drives and a usb keyboard) seems to have the same issue. Basically, I connect the device and it will continously connect and then a few seconds later disconnect the device. This just keeps looping until I physically disconnect the device.

With the usb keyboard I find that I can actually use the device while it says it is connected. However, I dont seem able to see the usb drives mounted anywhere.

Has anyone managed to get a flash pen and keyboard working using an adaptor cable?

Im using Revolution HD 4.1 if that makes any difference.
