That's a pretty broad statement. You might want to elaborate a bit.

On my vs980, the new build flashes everything.

Can't even install custom recovery on 30b...boots up to lg screen says security error and turns itself off

Mine as well, I have the latest twrp and running just fine along side lollipop
[G2 Android Development] Lawlrus:
Is that lollipop?
[G2 Android Development] jamesd1085:
Yes...its stock 5.0.2...works great...rooted but no way to get custom recovery has been found yet
[G2 Android Development] Lawlrus:
Oh okay, I get it now. I misread my previous post. You guys are saying that you can't install it on a stock lollipop ROM. I read it that you can't flash ROMs that are based on lollipop.

Well, that's what happened ladies and gents. In 4.4 lg blocked Loki. On 5.0 they blocked bump.

I don't know about any device other than the vs980 really, and we had some people figure out a way to get a recovery on the 5.0 bootstack FOR THE VS980 ONLY.

So if you guys don't have anyrhig like that in your phones home forum, d802 whatever, then you need to be on the 4.4 bootstack so you can use bump, or 4.2 for Loki.

If auto rec will not work for you guys now, use the lg flash tool to go back to a previous kdz or tot

[G2 Android Development] :
Basically, they just used the last kk bootstack that still supported bump and added the LP modem.

But really... Posting that this recovery doesn't work with stock lollipop bootstacks derails the thread. It's a known thing that LG patched the vulnerability and its not specific to this recovery.

If you don't know for sure that something should boot with your configuration, shame on you. Keep up to date with agates going on or use the tools provided... Blindly flashing without knowledge leads to bricks.

Please get back on topic, the op states that he'll only support issues specific to his mods on this recovery.

.... Sorry Lawlrus not sure why that quoted you.

Recovery works on lp but then the sys can't boot. Tried few hours ago..will play with it tomorrow
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
A ROM will never stop the recovery from working. All about bootloader. New bootloader probably fixed bump just like they fixed loki. Downgrade and problem solved.

All should be happy they didn't blow so-called "e-fuse" to prevent downgrade of BL. We can all be happy for that!!!
[G2 Android Development] Led Zeppelin:
Recovery issue fixed

1) download files and copy your phone

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934549502

2)install AutoRec apk

3)Flash recovery with Autorec and reboot to recovery

4)Install 30Drecovery.zip

That's all

Can you make new apk with new source...
[G2 Android Development] Crumplet:
Or implement kexec.
[G2 Android Development] :
There's no apk in twrp.

How did this thread get from being about blastagators twrp mods to what ever random info and requests people want to toss in it?
[G2 Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
Yea, I second this remark.

If you guys wanna discuss installation of new ROMs, apks, and other things UNRELATED to Blast's TWRP; go to the relevant threads.

And since I'm already posting something - thanks for the excellent work you've done with TWRP. Been using it since you first started releasing it, and doubt I'll ever change to another.

F320k stock 5.0 ROM rooted

I am using F320k with stock 5.0 ROM, I am rooted but without any custom recovery.

Is there a working twrp version I can flash using flashify. I tried the 2 variants available in the teamwin website for my unit but I get some sort of Demigod error. I had to press volume down to boot the phone back up.

I am wondering if there is a way to get this one for my phone. An img file perhaps? I read the thread and it seems that an older twrp is needed to flash this. Sorry, noob here :) Maybe I was just lucky to have flashed things I dont understand for 3 of my other phones.

So far, this is the hardest phone to get a custom recovery with.

I installed this and i have recovery on my v30d :) everything is working :good::good::good:

I had v30a leak with root and twrp i installed v30d on this without wipe + at the same time I installed this v30d recovery + root + xposed. EVERYTHING is working, recovery, xposed, root, i didn't lost my data. great :good:

Last night I updated to 2.8.6.1. While I did a Nand backup the recovery kept preventing the screen from turning off and kept creating a new unlock screen. By the end of the back up I went though 3 swipe to unlocks.

Sorry for this being a poor bug report.

Flash jb booloader if you have kk bootloader reboot to recovery and flash twrp.

2nd ROM : Waiting for custom recovery ;)

MODS: Still searching
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I considered adding ability to backup/restore other partitions including aboot. However, I decided most people would likely break things if they had the ability to easily change those partitions.

My recommendation, make a zip that installs whichever bootloader, similar to what dori did - he inspired me to make these - http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php

I'd suggest making similar packages for your model - or finding them. Easiest way to not break things :)
[G2 Android Development] jamesd1085:
I have d801 and have used these files time and again...just wondered if it was possible to make recovery look and see if you are on L and trying to restore a KK backup and automatically fix issues that would cause it not to boot due to BL issue or other partitions that vary between the two versions...kind of like how panel detection makes sure jdi screens get jdi drivers...basically taking the guess work out of it so people weren't screwing up their g2 and adding a level of ease to it...thanks for this recovery too i works great on d80130b after fixing bootstack issues
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
This was something the recovery never did and not something I'd add due to the changes to the recovery code.

This was originally handled by loki. See the code: https://github.com/djrbliss/loki/blob/master/loki_patch.c

This is what causes

assert failed: run_program(" /tmp/loki.sh") == 0

If someone made an android based open bump (I believe I saw something called "live bump" awhile ago that was this concept) these checks could be added. But even then, you just end up with everyone posting "OMG I DUNNO WHAT THIS ERROR MEANS HALP!"

So things will likely stay the way they are and people will just have to be boot-loader savvy - which quite frankly is fairly basic.

Hope this explains!

Problem encountered with v2.8.6.1

I apologize if this topic was already discussed, but I do not speak English and I have great difficulty doing a search for this topic here.

It seems that in some cases the v.2.8.6.1 failed to successfully complete the flash (of course after the required four wipes), leading to the brick (solvable) of the device. The flash was later successfully completed with v.2.8.5.1

Look Out !!! I do not want to arouse alarm, I'm just asking a question ! For this reason, perhaps it's better that [MENTION=5031300]blastagator[/MENTION] to give me an answer

Hi . . .
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
You did not give me any details about this "problem" so I can't answer anything. What were you trying to flash, what error, etc. etc.
[G2 Android Development] raulx222:
[MENTION=5031300]blastagator[/MENTION]

Hey!

I have a d802, and on latest TWRP the backup scripts(from addon.d folder) from AOSP ROMs aren't executed well, causing FC and bootloop. If a backup script is present, after updating ROM (flashing CM nighlty for example, without any wipe) the phone get stuck in bootloop or the additional apps which should be backed up and restored shows FC.

The latest build on which backup scripts are woking is 2.8.3.1 (I tried 2.8.6.1, 2.8.5.1, 2.8.4.0 and only on 2.8.3.1 the scripts are still working :D )
[G2 Android Development] xNotta:
This just happened again.

Seems like the screen just froze completely on the unlock screen.

Stayed like that for about 30min. Normally only takes about 10min to backup.

Phone was very hot to the touch and I had to hold the power button to get out of recovery.

Is this issue isolated to me? Is the issue known? Is there a fox?
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
Please try TWRP 2.8.6.0 from Dees_Troy's thread. If bugs exist on his version, report to him - that means it is in main code! If it is just broken in my code, let me know and I'll see if I can track it down.
[G2 Android Development] raulx222:
With TWRP 2.8.6.0 from Dees_Troy the backup scripts are working.

I wiped system, flashed CM nightly from April 02, flashed Slim GApps mini, flashed CM nightly from April 03..and what I observed: after doing those steps with Dees_Troy twrp and booted system, Android was saying: "Optimizing apps" and I had to wait until 114 apps were "optimized"... But with your TWRP 2.8.6.1 after doing those steps, when I booted up system, no " Optimizing apps" was shown.. And the screen is spammed by FC from gapps

EDIT: [MENTION=2808286]xNotta[/MENTION] I also have this issue with more lock screens..but I haven't tried to see if this is also on Dees_Troy twrp
[G2 Android Development] Danzano:
Downloads are not working for d802
[G2 Android Development] xNotta:
I tried 2.8.60 from Dees_Troy.

That recovery did not have the screen time out and didn't have any lock screen.

I also noticed the phone stayed about 10c cooler than v2.8.6.1. Sat about 73c while 6.1 was hitting 84c+.

No lockscreen problem on 2.8.6.0... Also no lock screen or screen timeout at all.

2.8.6.0 gave an error about the /sns partition. Should I report that to Dees_Troy?
[G2 Android Development] mcqaissi:
after I flash new build

my phone is stuck main screen no inter to recovery

I installed twrp app is crashed
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
If that is the version I realized of 2.8.6.0, it is no good, flash new build. If that is Dees_Troy version - report over there. I dont think his version does the sensors partition though, so I'm guessing that is my old broken release. Update and try again.

Also, Please get rid of big pictures.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
Seems working fine, at least now.

Also, Please get rid of big picture.

edit: l01f links fixed. Sorry about that.
[G2 Android Development] xNotta:
It was Dees_Troy's version. I reported it over there but they don't seem concerned and said I did something to my phone to cause the error. (it's complete stock and was freshly tot'd about 2 weeks ago)

Sorry about the images. Tapatalk has really gone to crap and now it only lets you upload like that.

I removed it.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
Did you use my version prior to going to his? I believe the TWRP settings file retains the partitions you had checked for your last backup. I don't believe his version supports /sns at all. Therefore, the /sns attempted backup was leftover check box from the settings file. Since dees_troy's version doesn't support /sns, that is why you got error.

Or at least this is my best attempt to figure out what happened.
[G2 Android Development] xNotta:
Sounds good to me.

I did use yours before trying his and did a dirty flash of the recovery.

I don't think that error was causing any problems other than the message appearing.

Is there any way to reset settings to default? Maybe that's what was causing the lock screen glitch?
[G2 Android Development] jamesd1085:
Press settings and the reset to default button is bottom left corner
[G2 Android Development] xNotta:
Just tried a backup with your current recovery and still got the multiple lock screens.

I did a restore default then rebooted so everything should have been set correctly.

Thinking it's the official source since the Dees_Troy's release didn't even have a lock screen or screen timeout.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I see the multi lockscreen issue after running a backup. Odd indeed. However, I didn't actually change anything in my device source, so I am guessing this must stem from upstream. Not sure. I will look into it more when I get a chance. Slammed at work again.

On a good note, the backup appears to have succeeded (of all partitions). This just seems like a minor annoyance.

Anyone else facing issues with getting TWRP to boot. This is now happening to me the third time, the only way to fix it is to kdz back to stock and start all over again.

This rom I flashed successfully before using TWRP 2.8.5.0. I have modified the /data and /cache to F2FS recently. How do I go back to dee's TWRP so I can test out the issue.

Currently can't be unlocked. I hear there might be a way and people are looking into it.
[G2 Android Development] _that:
You're only wasting your time. Flashing a recovery completely replaces the previous one, so you can update to the latest version directly - it leads to the same result, but faster.
[G2 Android Development] d00lz:
I don't know how I'll ever get those 2 minutes of my life back ;).

I guess I'm a strong believer in peace of mind.
[G2 Android Development] _that:
My peace of mind comes from knowing what I'm doing. :)
[G2 Android Development] :
Really it shouldn't give you any peace of mind... Each zip completely rewrites the recovery partition. By flashing more than what's needed you're just increasing the chances that one of your zips is corrupt and making your recovery not boot.

Really, the only thing that you need to do to keep peace of mind is never reflash your rom and recovery at the same time. That way if your recovery doesn't flash right, you can boot your rom and manually dd a new recovery image.

But hey.... Whatever works for you.
[G2 Android Development] d00lz:
I didn't know people got so annoyed over someone doing something that is unnecessary but deems the same result. You've both clearly stated that I don't have too and thank you for sharing your knowledge on the subject and helping increase mine but unfortunately, old habits die hard.

I'm sure the information you both have given will become valuable for others who have the same misconception and OCD as I do.

"But hey... Whatever works for you" is a perfect way to end this discussion.
