Wiping cache and dalvik-cache with ART enabled

[MENTION=3082717]Flyhalf205[/MENTION] I'm running the GPE 4.4 KitKat ROM with ART enabled. Is wiping cache/dalvik-cache necessary anymore when flashing updates to a ROM or in general? Just wondering as I've done alot of searching in the forums, and can't find a definitive answer. Thanks!!

upgrade from 2.6.3.3 to 2.6.3.4

Hi if I already have TWRP 2.6.3.3 on my phone what is the proper way to upgrade to 2.6.3.4? Do I just flash a zip in recovery? Also, will my backups from an older 2.6.3.3 work with 2.6.3.4? Sorry.....I am a noobie.

No not in recovery simply fastboot flash 2.6.3.4....yes your backups will work just fine.

this is more of an "im a tard" complaint for not reading my screen, but from .3 to .4 you changed the order of things on the wipe screen and now ive wiped my internal storage cause i wasnt paying attention and just hit the first 4 in the list like before. again this is my fault but i would suggest keeping the order the same so others dont do the same thing and start flaming over their own mistake. again this is my fault and no big deal i know how to fix it. just saying this cause others may get butthurt over it even it is their fault. thanks for the recovery fly.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
fastboot flash boot recovery.img.. that is so very wrong. :

boot = kernel

so if you were to do this, you'd be flashing the kernel to your recovery partition, possibly messing things up.

ADB sideload function

OK, I messed up. I did the firmware upgrade out of order and now I need to get the ROM.zip onto my phone in Recovery or Fastboot, because it wont boot completely.

I'm trying the TWRP ADB sideload function, but it never shows anything after "Starting ADB sideload feature..."

The ADB command returns error.

C:\Android Dev\sdk\platform-tools>adb sideload C:\Users\Jeff\One_ROMs\VZW_43_Deodex_DeBloat.zip

error: device not found

C:\Android Dev\sdk\platform-tools>

Is there something else I need to do to get that function running?

I will try "flashing" in fastboot if needed.

From the TeamWin site:

Set the device into ADB sideload mode. In TWRP you do this by going to Advanced then ADB Sideload.

From the command line, type adb sideload /path/to/rom.zip

Should I be putting the zip into the platform-tools folder as with fastboot and entering /sdcard/filename.zip after the command?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tigerstown:

Backup Fails

I'm trying to create a backup and each time it only says "Failed" and it says "E: Unable to to locate storage device." I am on TWRP version v2.6.3.4 and on Santod's newest Stock Odexed Debloated Rom with the most current firmware and I have never had this problem before. I tried reflashing the recovery in fastboot and the problem persists. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Edit2: Problem persists after changing rom to ViperOne... Now I'm worried...

Edit3: Alright I solved the problem, USB-OTG was mounted as the storage for some reason although this has never appeared before and so I simply had to mount the internal storage instead and the problem was fixed. Nevermind.

Flashing zips appears to stall

Hello All

I have noticed something about this latest version of TWRP in that i have noticed some zips or at random, zips take an extremely long time to flash, meaning it will sit there like its trying and then about 45 seconds or longer later says complete. Now these are only zips under 3 meg so thaey are not huge, furthermore an older version of twrp didnt have this problem, and when going back to the a pre 3.3 version 2.6.0.1 i think, does not have this issue. I also installed a different recovery and and things went smoothly

Has anyone noticed a lag or unusually long time flashing files in this version of twrp?

wrong thread
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Mike02z:
It does but since I never let my battery get low, not an issue for me.

Initially, 2.6.3.4 ran great. Then I noticed it would take forever to flash something. At times it would also hang entering TWRP. At first it was once and a while. The more I used it (I'm a flashaholic) the more issues I had with slowness flashing and often would just sit at the initial TWRP screen without loading. Most times if a flash was taking too long I would wait for it to lock the screen and then upon unlock, it would finish.

I'm sure FlyHalf will figure it out but until then, I needed to go back to 2.6.3.3. As long as you don't let your battery totally die, you should be fine temporarily.

EDIT: I did try a re-flash to ensure something did not get messed up on initial flash.

Crap. I accidentally installed openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-m7ul.img instead of the Verizon one linked in this thread.

When I flash the Verizon one, either through fastboot or Flashify, it reboots as normal when I try to reboot into recovery. This happens when I try to flash either m7vzw 2.6.3.4 and 2.6.3.3.

When I restored the backup I created initially with this recovery, I am now somehow unable to access the play store, getting a message about needing to enable background data, even though background data is clearly enabled. See screenshot. How do I fix this?

All I can say is 2.6.3.3 works fine with KitKat roms. There is a bug with 2.6.3.3.that if you let the battery go totally dead you can have an issue getting your phone to boot. This is a serious bug but I never let my phone get below 20% so it's not a deal breaker for me. I can tell you that I had numerous issues with 2.6.3.4. Non fatal, but enough to make me go back to 2.6.3.3

Sometimes 2.6.3.4 would take 2-3 minutes for TWRP to start and often the battery would get HOT while waiting. It would also flash a rom then sit until the screen locked and I unlocked it. I had checked the MD5 and re downloaded and flashed again just in case it was a bad download. At times it would work fine. At others it scared the cr*p out of me.

I've been using TWRP so long I have no desire to try another recovery. I certainly would not even mention any other recoveries in a TWRP thread.

TWRP has always been one very solid recovery but 2.6.3.4 has issues for me and the 3 One's I support in my home :(

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] NotATreoFan:
This is backward. The phone ships as m7vzw, and regardless of which ROM I have run TWRP always identified itself that way.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
Is it not possible that twrp has made two separate versions of the recovery to prevent bugs from having both aosp and sense partitions in one recovery?

FYI- The board name for the Verizon m7 is m7_wlv and the device name is m7_vzw. Sprint has the board name m7_ul and the device name is m7_spr.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brymaster5000:
I believe sprint is m7_wls. International LTE is ul. And i think you're right on the dual versions...I would always have to flash AOSP...let it reboot...flash again dirty and it would work...pain in the a$$, but...hopefully their updates fixes that.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jpradley:
I see that distinction of board and device as well. TWRP (regardless of the wlv|vzw string in its image name) deals equally well with Sense ROMs or AOSP ROMs.

See: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/Build.html
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] disconnecktie:
I see your point but that doesnt mean it is handling the distinction between the partitions of sense and aosp correctly. There is clearly a bug causing aosp ROMs to not flash correctly. Makes sense to me to separate the sense and aosp versions until the bug is corrected.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Pretty sure the root cause of this, is the made up device name that CM has used for our device from day one.

m7vzw does not exist technically. It should have been used as a build product name only, maybe...if that.

As per HTC:

ro.product.model=HTC6500LVW (this is also confusing, as the "LVW" is different then the product device name > "wlv")

ro.product.name=HTCOneVZW

ro.product.device=m7wlv

ro.build.product=m7wlv

As per CM:

ro.product.model=One

ro.product.name=HTCOneVZW

ro.product.device=m7vzw
