I repacked the EasyFlasher tool with this latest 2.6.1.0 for anyone who is rooting for the first time so they can go straight to 2.6.1.0 without having to flash it after the fact.

Fully tested and verified that it works on my TF101.

New version TWRP 2.6.1.0-b

OP updated with download links to new version TWRP 2.6.1.0-b. I have rebased this on timduru's device tree and modified the mount points so that now external microSD storage is identified as 'MicoSD' and internal storage is identified as 'sdcard', representing what was traditionally the /data/media folder, also known as 'sdcard'. You have access to your 'download' folder and media, the same thing that sdcard represents. I've tested flashing a kernel but haven't had a chance to test everything else. There shouldn't be any issues because all that changed were a couple mount points basically. But, test and let me know. Be sure to download the md5 checksum file into the same folder that you will be flashing from to help eliminate any issues arising from corrupt downloads.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] garyngkt:
Managed to flash 2.6.1.0-b this time without issues but there was a prompt to Fix Root before reboot. Rebooted to KatKiss without issues. Thanks :good:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] frederuco:
Strange that some KatKiss users are getting the SuperUser prompt in this recovery. I am not getting it. Are the users who are getting it using a different superuser than what is included with the ROM?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I'm also not seeing it. With prior versions (that I did not build) the only time I ever saw anything about supersu or superuser anything was if I had wiped Android out and was getting ready to reboot before flashing another ROM. The reason for rebooting was because I had formatted /data also and twrp was suggesting a reboot or /data might be unusable. I haven't yet wiped everything completely with my twrp builds.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rjvdhoek:
You only see the red block when themed, deleting the theme-directory makes the white arrow cursor show up again. So it maybe something in the theme?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
It may mean that they later added a cursor function and icon after the time that I pulled from the standard theme to make mine. I'll look into it.

[EDIT] I just looked at the current source and, yes, the white arrow mouse cursor was just added a month ago. My custom theme was put together before that and doesn't include the cursor icon. I will get it added soon.

You flash it from your existing custom recovery.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] citifone:
Well, I didn't have any existing cwm recovery but I found the way by using a software called Oneclickrecovery v0.4.2 found in this forum.

It will flash twrp 2.5.0.0, then used it to flash 2.7.0.0, thanks for your help.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Piehti:
Rom? You keant recovery? It's not Aroma-suppertive actually I think. But itn works for Tims Roms as for OmniRom. So if you have a TF101 and want the get the last out of it and a up to date OS then you should go with twrp recovery. You mitgt also want to download update-supersu from the chainfie fire. OmniRom doesnt install it by itself by default. KatKiss brings su with it.

Cheers.

I personaly think aroma isn't an option to focus on.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I tried to get an older aroma working but didn't have much luck. The newer aroma is neon only and our devices are not. I've used aroma installers with twrp on my phone, which is neon capable. It's just a graphical installer / wrapper, more work than it's worth for a few seconds of eye candy.

Sydneyk, are you aware of some

Modded Twrp that are modded to format /data to f2fs? This would be great for us, because this special recovery don't need compatible Rom, just a compatible kernel. So if we convince Tim make a test version Kat kernel compatible with f2fs we can test without much pain. do you think about this subject?

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I was already looking at that link earlier and others. Sounds like f2fs support is present in 3.8 kernel, so would have to be back ported and patched in to our 2.6.39 kernel. Since our recovery uses a different kernel source, these changes would need to pulled into there, as well. I'll have to look to see what other changes might be necessary within TWRP. My preference would be to wait for this to mature a bit more, but I'll keep looking into it. Currently, there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on the subject.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
According to change logs, twrp already has f2fs support, it would require changes in the kernel and some of the device files and maybe some work within Android for the ROM to use it. With that said, most things I've run across on the subject blame f2fs for some file corruption. I'm OK for now with ext4 for system and vfat for my microsd card. Does everything I need it to do. I'll study it in the meantime and try to learn more about it while it matures more.

Could you please make a 2.7.0.1 for the SL101? :D

I really want to try out your omni Rom but with the current TWRP I have it fails to install...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
If I get the time, I'll try to get some twrp builds out for sl101 and tf101g and maybe even a bonus ROM build for each, since I'll have to reconstruct device trees for both anyway and now Omnirom can build both ROM and recovery at the same time. I don't know if the tf101 build of Omni would flash on either of these devices even with an updated TWRP because I believe the ROM is checking for a valid device before flashing. I'll see what I can do in a couple days when I have some time off.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DK5:
First things first, great thanks!

Your ROM is using Tim's device tree, right?

If so, timduru has developed a compatibility pack for the slider. There are still some annoying things but it works on every kitkat KatKiss ROM I've tried...

I believe it will work if I'll flash it after flashing your ROM, therefore there won't be a need for a whole new device tree :)

Again, thnx a lot!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I need the different device trees to notate proper device names for the recovery and the inverted setting that sl101 needs. I may have most of it already done for recovery, so I'll concentrate there. I also use a different kernel for recovery.

I have the same bootloop issue on 2.7.0.3.

I haven't touched the tab in a long time so the KatKiss I had I think was version 18 with 4.4.2 just bootlooping so my recovery was twrp 2.6 (not sure the full version), went to install the new 2.7.0.3 and I'm still stuck.

I can get nvflash working without issue but adb won't recognize anything.

Any ideas? I can use wheelie and nvflash just fine but not sure what I can do to reset that flag if I can't get adb shell.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TomTcom:
Now that I think about it I could extract the image, format the recovery partition, then load the image with nvflash.

Hi [MENTION=4342873]sidneyk[/MENTION] . Thank you for your awesome work. Could you tell me what about Aroma support in TWRP? I'm asking because of problems with flashing Android Revolution HD from mike1986. When Aroma starts the whole recovery hangs up :(

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
I, personally, haven't tried any Aroma installers that anyone else built. I tried to get the older non-neon Aroma working, but had about the same luck as you. Newer Aroma builds are neon enabled, which means they are no-go for us non-neon folks. You might ask Mike what recovery he is having luck with getting his Aroma installer to work with. I know Aroma works on my neon-enabled phone in TWRP. It may have something to with with the frame buffer on our deviceand how Aroma is or isn't trying to use it.

Issues w/ restore / backup[?]

Hello,

Comment / feedback.

No problem loading your latest version to the tablet, installed, boots and appears to work fine.

Made a backup of my current setup which was stock ICS + custom kernel.

Everything appears to have backed up correctly, and judging by the file size of the data backup specifically [over 3GB], it seems like all my personal files where backed up as well.

Then loaded latest KatKiss to test out. Wanted to test the nandroid backup so went to reload that backup and everything is working ok however twrp will not restore my old /data/media content.

I understand that normally during the wipe this is not a normal area to erase, however I figured that since I went to KK from ICS that it would be best to reformat the sdcard when going back to ICS as a result of the file system changes that came w/ JB.

I have tried searching all over [maybe I'm not using the right terminology] but I can't seem to find anyone w/ a similar problem. If the nandroid backup is an image of how my system was at that time, why is it not reloading everything as that image? It almost seems like the TWRP backup is more of a complete copy / paste operation rather than a true partition image.

What am I missing??
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
If I'm not mistaken, I believe that /data/media is excluded from the TWRP nandroid backups by default, as it is assumed that it is mostly user data such as media, save game files, etc. to keep the size of the backup smaller. It is assumed (and advised somewhere on TWRP pages) that you keep this part backed up separately. And, yes, I don't believe there is any repartitioning going on. TWRP will restore the backed files to their respective partitions, but doesn't repartition. I don't know if it does any wipes as part of this or just assumes that the user will wipe things before a restore. If you need a complete repartitioning, then you will need to nvflash back to stock. Long and short, if you didn't have /data/media backed up separately or intentionally included in your nandroid backup or saved in the cloud, then they are gone for good.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] SidereusOne:
Thanks for the reply.

Luckily I am more cautious than that and did backup the personal stuff that I actually didn't want to lose, the stuff that didn't make the cut, I don't care if it's there or not.

The dangerous thing with this is that if you google the nandroid backup, there is a lot of articles that will say that it backups everything by default, people clearly just don't realize that it is just not being deleted in the first place.

To confirm, I opened up the 2 .win files that were created for my data partition, there is no /media in it at all. So 100% sure that it does not back it up with the standard settings.

The only annoying thing now is that many of my apps have had their databases restored with links to those areas and it's creating a lot of phantoms all over the system, probably am just going to factory reset and start from scratch.

Good learning experience, glad I did it with this tablet before playing around on my phone where I would have probably missed files I would want to keep.

I also see why now people to TWRP + Titanium [games, etc]. I don't really have many games on the tablet but I could image some people would be quite mad to lose all their progress!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
Again, I believe that when you start the back up, it shows you what partitions are going to be backed up (indicated by checkmarks). Granted, it is only that data that is contained in each that is backed up. It also says that it is backing this stuff up without backing up /data/media. You can manually select internal storage and it will get backed up, too. But, moving from ICS to KitKat, you may not necessarily want to restore that old data and should only restore individual app's data from the ICS backup with Titanium backup or something. Enough has changed between the versions that you will want to install fresh copies of apps from the Playstore because restoring the wrong stuff can mess things up. Then, go one app at a time if restoring app's data, in case of issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] SidereusOne:
I booted back into twrp after your last post, I did not see any other options on the back up screen other than boot cache system and data... Nothing about choosing other locations.

You could use the file manger. I am not seeing where you can add to the backup?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
You're right, I just looked, too. I was trying to operate from memory and apparently didn't remember correctly, sorry. I can't find it right now, but I know I read that /data/media, i.e. /sdcard, is excluded from the backups. If I find the info, I'll post a link to it here. I have, though, made backups of my Omni system, /boot, /system, and /data and restored it from a wiped system to get back pretty much to the same place I was, maybe minus pics, music, downloads (didn't check at the time) that were on the internal storage. It's just a good practice to back up anything on the internal memory in some way away from the internal storage, if you don't want to lose it, particularly any personal media or data.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Magissia:
TWRP never backed up /data/media for me, since the first day i'm using it. It's even written "Excluding /media/data" when doing stuff on /data (wipe, backup).

On older device, it doesn't touch /sdcard either. They just adapted to the fact /media/data is /sdcard.
