That's crazy. Worth a shot don't know if it will help. But re fastboot flash the twrp 2.7.0.2 an then try. Can't hurt nothing for sure. If you made your backup in the newer twrp you could be screwed as it does make bad backups. When I was on the newer twrp made a backup an couldn't get it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Keithn:
I can do both
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] vampir4997:
I am also having issues with 2.7.0.2. I have 1 backup that works but all the others i make fail on restoring data.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] hgoldner:
I have been on TWRP 2.7.1.0 on my Verizon M8 for quite a while; the only goofy symptom is that after a Nandroid it says the size is 0 bytes, but it does a proper Nandroid and I've restored such Nandroids without any issues. Sees my sdcard, whether formatted FAT32 or exFAT. Flashes zip files, have used it to flash my current ROM as well as CleanROM with a nandroid restore in between. It just works.

Are the folks using clockwork with this phone having the same problems. Is there anyway to convert a twrp back up to clockwork? Think I'm going to switch with all these problems.

Here is a copy of TWRP built from these sources: https://github.com/TEAM-Gummy/android_bootable_recovery_TWRP/commits/kk4.4

The last change to the recovery was on august 15th

I edited the fstab for our VZW(wlv) variant. I was able to successfully make a backup but haven't had a chance to flash anything yet. Let me know how it goes and i will periodically update it.

http://projectelite.net/actngrezy/buck/m8/vzw/TWRP/Buck-TWRP-2.7.1.0-m8wlv.img

EDIT: one bug found. If you power off and plug in it will take you into recovery and touch doesn't work so you have to do a virtual battery pull. I'll see if I can fix it today.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Shadow Death:
So... I decided to stop and read the comments left.

Let me get this straight.. You guys can do a backup but you can't restore? Can you modify /system files and make them stick? For that matter did you flash a boot.img that will allow you to modify the /system folder? An unsecure kernel isn't enough from what I understand.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Keithn:
I don't know what anyone else is running but I've had no issues on AOSP or GPE/Sense.

Sent from my One M8
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Shadow Death:
Same. These phones have write protected /System and the kernel is also designed to block changes to /System.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Keithn:
Yeah I remember dealing with that when I got the phone shortly after it was available. I think I had that taken care of by the time I had a different recovery on it.

Yes
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dodge DeBoulet:
[MENTION=2967322]buckmarble[/MENTION], is there anything you can do about backups reporting 0 bytes backed up on completion? My guess is they're OK, but it's always a bit disconcerting after you've waited 4-5 minutes for your backup to complete ;)

The realtime progress reporting (with real file counts and megabytes!) is great. If it helps, the last backup I performed was 4098MB.

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] buckmarble:
I'll take a look and see if any patches have been made to fix this issue.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Dodge DeBoulet:
Nothing in the patches, [MENTION=2967322]buckmarble[/MENTION]? I'm thinking it's a signed integer overflow issue of some sort. My backups used to report the number of bytes backed up at the end, but at some point just started reporting 0. The change may have been at the 4GB boundary; I could try moving some stuff around to get the backup below 4096MB and see what happens, I suppose.

Should I fear restoring? I've made plenty of backups, but through rooting/S-OFFing/ROM installation/etc. I've never managed to get my phone into a state where a restore was necessary.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] buckmarble:
No you shouldn't fear it. There haven't been any patches yet. There are some for native otg coming down the pipe but that's it. Try a restore and see what happens. Take a screen shot too. You can do this by pressing power+vol down in recovery.

Has anyone come up with the blank os fix for the Verizon version? I know the international version has an unofficial fix. And 2.8 still has the issue...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
This should be fixed for the next (minor) version.

I've been working with [MENTION=912474]Dees_Troy[/MENTION] on a consolidated TWRP build that'll work on all variants. The OS bug fix has now been applied to his BoardConfig and is fixed going forward. I think the last thing he was working on fixing was offmode charging, and I believe I provided him with the necessary information for that fix as well.

However, MTP doesn't work (yet), as the kernel is missing the necessary sysfs paths that assign vendor & product IDs.

I am running GPE rom and I am Encrypted. I am not getting prompt to decrypt when entering recovery. I spent a couple hours researching and I feel like I am missing something. It can't mount E:/data to back up my stuff. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
TWRP only handles AOSP (read: open-source) encryption, not whatever HTC uses. So you won't be able to access data/sdcard in TWRP that you've encrypted with Sense.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Oh, sorry, missed the mention of GPE. But likely, GPE isn't using AOSP encryption, since the ROM itself includes HTC's closed source elements.

You did already say that TWRP isn't prompting you to decrypt it. I was just explaining why. Unless you think there's another reason.

That's what I am trying to understand. Is there a flag on the partition?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
I don't know what you mean. You said that you were "encrypted," which means TWRP won't be able to read your data. If your data was encrypted using AOSP encryption, TWRP would be able to read it. As it stands, TWRP cannot, which leads us to the conclusion that GPE is using some non-standard, non-AOSP encryption. What is it you don't understand?

Need Help!

Hi Guys,

I've Update my Verizon M8 to 4.4.3. I previously had a Bootloader Unlocked and Rooted Phone. I Unrooted it to stock Rom with Stock Recovery while keeping my Bootloader Unlocked. After 4.4.3 Update I want to root my phone again. I have flashed v2.8.0.0 (for Verizon M8) via fastboot. Everything flashed sucessfully. I opened the recovry as well. But whenI try to flash supersu or anyother zip, it fails to flash with a message "cannot mount '/data'". I also, cannot read my internal storage.

I've searched everywhere for a solution but so far cannot find one. Would appreciate if anyone can help me out.

Regards,

Salman

Thanx for the reply. I have tried to format internal storage but its say "unable to mount internal storage" and failed. Any other suggestions?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
Flash a full ruu? That wipes everything and, I think, restores the partition structure and mount points.

Can you do a factory reset in recovery?

Have you tried rolling back to a previous version of twrp, or maybe trying a cwm based recovery?

---------- Post added at 05:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 AM ----------

Twrp has its own kernel so something has to be corrupted with that.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Salman787:
I have not downloaded an ruu yet coz my phone is not s-off and from what I gather flashing ruu requires s-off. I have tested, all the versions of twrp available for verizon m8, without success. I have performed a full format in recovery but the issue persists. I've been reading a lot of forums for a solution. I=1 solution suggests that I format my internal storage via PC. I am using a windows based system and when I connect my phone with the PC I can see my internal storage with all the files but when I right click to format, the menu doe not have the option for it.

I have download the stock recovery for by Software. I'm thinking about flasing it and then performing a factory rest through bootloader. But I have a doubt that by doing so I can wreck the phone. :(
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
Only thing I can think of is to spring for the Sunshine app, it now works for the 4.4.3 ota, and get s-off so you can try to flash an ruu and start from scratch.

I noticed that when I went to install the new version via TWRP Manager, it listed that is was going to write to dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p43

The website lists dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p44

I did not install via TWRP Manager, instead I used Flashify and it worked.

I think I read before that if you flash to mmcblk0p43 that it will cause you to go into a never ending bootloop and you would need to rewrite the partition tables.

Can someone confirm if using TWRP Manager will work or do they need to fix something in the app first?

RECOVERY REPACK FAQ

I'd like a repack for *devicename*, how do I make one?

Download and unpack Android Image Kitchen.

Unpack the zip.

Download the zip containing the custom curtains (splash images).

Get the recovery image you want to modify from the TWRP download site.

Copy the recovery image to the Image Kitchen folder.

In windows explorer, drag & drop the recovery image on the "unpackimg.bat".

Unpacking will create two new folders (ramdisk and split_image).

Rename the splash of your choice to "curtain.jpg" and drop it into /ramdisk/res/images.

Hit "repackimg.bat".

This will create a "image-new.img", which you can then flash away using your preferred method.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llcooljayce:
Hey guys,

For some reason, my GS4 keeps losing its data connection to LTE throughout the day and the only way to get the data connection back is to restart the phone.

I have reflashed the phone once and still have the same problem. When the phone is restarted, the LTE connection picks up immediately but continues to drop. It's not a battery saver issue because this issue occurred even when I kept my phone with the default programs just to see if it would drop out again.

Any thoughts or has anyone experienced this?

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] detartrated:
I've been lurking this forum for quite sometime now...well, several actually but I haven't really seen anyone post about having a working Bluetooth headset for the XDA II (mostly for other XDA versions).

Here are some threads here with "near" solutions but still didnt work for mine...

So, just a couple of quick clarifications...

a) Is streaming music to the XDA II a software or hardware issue? What I mean is if its dependent on buying the "correct" brand/model of BT headset or getting the correct "software" / BT stack upgrade installed on the XDA unit?][/list]

b) Now, just my two-cents of experience, my current BT headset is kinda generic and it doesnt stream music to my XDA...so I thought it must be becoz of the BT headset being cheap and all...but when I tried it on a Motorola RAZr (and other Motorola celfones) it worked just fine...So is it the software on the unit that needs upgrading?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] rmurph17:
?

By headset do you mean:

a) Single earpiece, or

b) Headphones

By stream music do you mean:

a) Play music on XDA's windows media player and want to listen to it through your answer to my first question, or

b) Play music from another source on the XDA, or

c) Something else

If you answered a),a) then it might just be your headset because I use a motorola earpiece and it plays music from the XDA (albeit in mono).

Hope that helps

Regards,

Dr. R. Murphy
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] detartrated:
I meant earpiece actually...it looks like this:

It's a Popcom PM808 Spongebobluetooth edition (kidding!)

and I was just wondering if it can stream...I mean, if it can play audio/music from other celfones...why not from my XDA II??

So I figured...hey, maybe its something "lacking" in my XDA....

This thread says a different version number because this version has been ported by the original developer. One of the ones behind the development of TWRP2. The other was a port by Jmz

They *were*, yes. But he changed that a couple days ago when 2.7.0.2 was officially released. The thread title says the official version is 2.7.0.0 and was released today. But their own official download page says the latest official version is 2.7.0.2 and was released 2 days ago.
