I re-formated card again and still TWRP when making backup can't write to SD card.. I will try to get another SD card. Is it ok to format cad on NTFS? Or should be ext-FAT?

EDIT: When formating on extFAT it is working!

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Stonish_KG:
I installed it via Odin and tar file, installed it via img file and flashify and installed it via official app. All of them with a success but when I enter recovery mode I can not see TWRP but standard android "Downloading... Do not turn off target!" info. I can see in the upper left corner "ODIN MODE".

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Aparently I used wrong button combination - was suppose to just press Volume Down + Power button. While I can not see Downloading... Mode anymore - I can see just S5 logo showing up and then after few seconds my phone vibrates and repeats the cycle. Can't access TWRP.

EDIT2: Managed to get into TWRP by using a QUICK BOOT app. Hope I will have no more problems with that (Y)

Sorry, I see that 3.1.1 is not available yet there either. And my twrp app is used on G900P so maybe that is why it shows here but it does not show klte from app either so I hesitate to try it.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] fubo73:
Exactly. But the thread title reports 3.1.1-0 released on 2017-05-19.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Legitsu:
the app is frankly the stupidest thing I have ever encountered on xda

the search function is entirely unintuitive and unnecessary. the app should be-able to auto-detect what recovery and what device its on and doesn't so you are left scrolling though a list of devices and images which btw opens a browser window instead of a wget or direct http link from within the app its self

when it comes to device critical images your auto update MUST be retard proof and completely hands off or not exist at all

a direct link in the op for KLTE is all that should be required
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Muppet the Wonder Dog:
Installed on S5 SM900F with Lineage 7.1.1. Works fine until backup. TWRP identifies a mismatch in sizes of files being backed up to eventual backup on SD card. MD5 checksum takes nearly as long as the backup. But....all the files, folders, paths on the SD are corrupted according to chkdsk. Wonder what I'm doing wrong. Worked fine for install root, su, rom. sigh.

I have a problem.

I'm trying to install the latest version from TWRP

Now I'm on version 2.7.00 and tried to install the latest version with the app but this doesn't work because I'm still on the same version but the problem is that the GSM only starts up in TWRP and not in the "usual" GSM software so I can't use the phone.

How do I solve this??

Update:

And the problem is getting worser because now I only have a blue curve on the screen .........
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] vincom:
stop using the app as its useless, imo.

use odin to flash twrp tar file

https://dl.twrp.me/klte/
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Dudash:
I feel like all the TWRP threads shouldn't be renamed to the latest version/release until it is actually available for the device(s) listed in the thread. Since 3.1.1-0 isn't available officially, or even unofficially, yet, the thread title is misleading.

I do find it odd that the Qualcomm S3 and other S5 variants have official 3.1.1-0 available yet the Qualcomm S5 doesn't.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] vincom:
i swear 3.1.1-0 was posted on official twrp dl page, https://dl.twrp.me/klte/

but its not there, but im pretty sure thats wherei got it as i wouldnt trust another source for a recovery, but i am running 3.1.1-0

edit. my bad, thats on my n4
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] AbdexD:
major problem

my S5 (SM-G900F) is driving me nuts i can't install twrp on it always gives me (Fail size) on odin and i soft bricked my firmware a couple of times trying to do it, i had to use a pit file and re-flash the whole firmware to recover but i am back to square one, fastboot and adb aren't responding i tried disabling driver signature in windows installed the adb drivers in more than 1 different way yet it still won't respond.

i'd really appreciate any reply on this matter.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] MysteryIII:
Maybe you have a slack joint? It happens to Micro USB very often. An easy and cheap way to fix it is to put a piece of paper on the downside of the cable connector (all pins are on the upside). You won't have a loose contact any more.

Maybe installing the driver in many different ways is the problem. Use USBDeview to uninstall all corresponding drivers, then reboot and install drivers again. It already happened to me that some Devices didn't work because a corrupt driver "blocked" it and just installing other driver didn't fix it.

Here you get official and "clean" (without additional Software) USB drivers.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Legitsu:
I don't think hes got a unlocked bootloader ....
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] MysteryIII:
SM-G900F is always unlocked. Samsung doesn't lock bootloader only some Reseller do like Verizon i.e.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Legitsu:
uhh thats wholy incorrect these days

Samsung locks everything down
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] vincom:
which pit file did u use? which whole firmware file did u use? thats what probably changed ur partitions sizes, to what? idk

if it boots what model does it state and what baseband is it on
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] MysteryIII:
Well, they make sure you loose warrenty if you root thanks to Knox and encrypted storage gives a lot of trouble and there might be some other obstacles for Custom ROM and so on. But at least until S7 the bootloader of Samsung phones are unlocked, just Variants of AT&T, Telecom i.e. have locked bootloader. That's what I mean by only "Reseller" lock bootloader. Even when there was a (stupid) country based SIM Lock for Samsung devices for a short period, the bootloader was never locked.

True, Samsung gives developers a very hard time by changing immersive system functions without documenting it and I totally understand why so many developers left to other brands (compared to the time of S3).

And there's still this confusing changelog in the OP that has two times 3.0.2.0, one at top, one below 3.1.0, while the thread name says 3.1.1.0...

I really don't get it why no one of twrp team cares about that for months...

Is there an easy way to flash TWRP from CWM? seems maybe TWRP used to be available as a .zip that was flashable. Is there still a source for a flashable .zip?

I have CWM6.0.4.7 which nolonger seems able to root my phone (with Lineage March 03 nightly). So the TWRP app won't work.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] MysteryIII:
I didn't see a flashable ZIP of TWRP for a long time. But whats wrong with Odin? It's only four clicks to flash TWRP tar file. It's as easy as flashing zip in Recovery.

1. Connect phone in Download Mode

2. Select TWRP as "AP" in Odin

3. Start

4. Reboot.

That's all to it.

Another way without a computer would be using Flashfire.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] SuperSandro2000:
Twrp is only available as img and tar file. Maybe you can flash an older version of it. You could try to update lineage to a more recent version and use their root add-on or use supersu.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] tdunham:
It is not very difficult to create a zip flashable version with Linux.

Flashfire is fine but you have to be already rooted so it cannot be used to get twrp onto a stock phone.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] jdrch:
Without more details, this isn't very helpful to someone who needs assistance.

*unrooted phone. It works on stock rooted TouchWiz just fine, for example. It does not work by default on LineageOS without changing SELinux settings to Permissive.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] tdunham:
TWRP flashable zip versions.

Cannot be flashed with odin you must already have a previous twrp recovery installed.

If you would like to create your own, just download the img file from the twrp team repository, rename to recovery.img and replace the one in the zip and then rename the new zip filename accordingly to reflect the version.

Note:

This flashable will check the phone asset information and will only flash on the supported klte models.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Titus_Andronicus:
Holy Cow! That worked. THANKS So much!!!

Nothing is wrong with Odin, I just don't currently have a machine with Odin installed.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Titus_Andronicus:
In the theme of avoiding using Odin, is there a way to make a flashable .zip file to update the firmware/baseband using TWRP?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] culiacanazo:
The closest would be dual boot, BUT it won't touch protected partitions, so still far by a shot, lemme know if you do find something

(Perhaps it can be tweaked/modded/accommodated somehow?!)
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Titus_Andronicus:
I ended up using Odin to do the baseband flash. Worked like a charm.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] erikoplak:
ask

why can't install opengapps aroma?
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] SuperSandro2000:
Aroma support was dropped with I think twrp 3.0.0
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] culiacanazo:
Why was it dropped? And it's 3.0.0.1 the latest that will support it
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] SuperSandro2000:
I think because the maintainer needed to fix compatibility with MM bootloaders and it broke aroma and no one ever fixed it.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] culiacanazo:
I still keep (and use) it. It takes but a second to switch
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] culiacanazo:

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] SuperSandro2000:

You can still use it.

Step 1. Have current recovery.

Step 2. Keep aroma recovery around.

Step 3. Flash recovery from recovery.

Step 4. Reboot into recovery.

Step 5. Do recovery stuff.

Step 6. When done, and if so wished, revert necessary steps.

Step 7. Done.

Step 8. Enjoy.
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Legitsu:
idiotic

there is nothing aroma does worth any of that
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] GeTex:
I am referring to the use of the aroma open gapps package. I find it easier to use when I have between 7 devices to flash each with a different configuration

[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Ibuprophen:
I had asked this within another thread and realized that not many members go there... LMAO!

I'm hoping that someone here can help me out with this since it involves TWRP.

Well even the more experienced individual gets a bit thrown off and needs help...

I was just given a Verizon GS5 from a relative who just upgraded their device to a much newer one.

After going through a zillion threads, websites and such then a good night's sleep, i have never been as confused as i am now. I'm far from being new to the world of Unlocking, Rooting and such but, this really throws me into the noob arena.

I haven't tried anything yet because, if I'm not positive, I won't do anything until i am so I've got a few questions in hopes of getting a bottom line confirmation/answer.

From what I'm understanding, thus far, I've got the more desirable S5 with the he CID being 15 and an Android v5.

Scrapping my knowledge of flashing TWRP, what do I need to do to get TWRP installed?

I know that Unlocking the bootloader is the first hurdle but, unlike other Galaxy devices, it doesn't seem as though just opening up ODIN and flashing the TWRP Recovery will work.

But, I could be wrong and I'm not sure...

Thank you ALL very much for your time and understanding!

It would be great if a member could point me to a thread that works where i can get this knocked out fairly quickly.

I could help you with absolutely ALL aspects whatsoever of your inquiry, if it ONLY weren't for the "V" word :(

However, I did read once that bootloader unlocking was achieved in that "V"ariant
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Legitsu:
https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/testers-required-easier-root-method-t3561529

here is why its 'harder' then other devices

- you need root to execute the exploit ( no root exists for >5.01)

- you need to downgrade to a engineering firmware to get root and the appropriate selinux bypass to execute the exploit

-you need busy box

all in all the process should take 20m and a couple of reboots why people find that so difficult is beyond me
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] GeTex:
Unlock bootloader via exploit

then just flash twrp via ODIN or Flashfire

To everyone else I still haven't found the answer to my question, newest twrp has OTG issues
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Ibuprophen:
That's it? Where's the hard part?

This was simple and to the point... I thank you very much for this.

Root isn't a problem at all. I've got it rooted with SuperSU installed with the Binaries all set.

BusyBox is not a problem at all.

For SELinux... I'm a developer for The SELinux Switch App already released. That's not a problem.

The issue i was facing wasn't with it being difficult at all. The issue that i was facing was with all the tutorials outlining various different ways, i just couldn't get heads or tails as to which will ultimately work.

I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion with my question.

You provided a very good outline for this.

I should be good to go from here.

Follow the instructions here. Since you're not installing a ROM, you can skip the steps that involve that. Basically you'll have to flash back to an older build that supports rooting, then root, then unlock the bootloader, then install TWRP.

I'm OK with answering questions, but please thoroughly read the above before asking as it's difficult to answer questions that I've already addressed, plus it's been so long since I rooted and modded my S5 that I don't recall the process exactly.

Hope that helps!
[Galaxy S 5 Original Android Development] Ibuprophen:
All the responses helped me out tremendously!

I'm the type of individual who goes through the steps slowly with extreme care to prevent dealing with bricked devices again. It's been a while and not a fun thing to Undo.

With that stated... After 2 hours of reading and taking each step one at a time... IT WAS A BABY TWRP! LMAO :)

I got to the final step with a successful flash that resulted in an older version of TWRP. Then, within the recovery, i updated it to the latest version successfully.

Then i realized that i had forgotten to download LineageOS and the GApps package. LOL!

Thank you ALL very much for your time, understanding and especially your patience!

I look forward to roaming the klte halls with you all and, maybe, get some developments accomplished with an added device.
