[G2 Android Development] PolishVodka:
Sorry for posting little bit noob question here, but I'm still learning about G2. I've updated my phone to LP, root is done, so I now only need this Recovery.

I was wrong, because I do not know one thing, I must downgrade again to KK bootloader (when I was on it, I've done a backup of ABOOT partition) because LP bootloader has other security to block untrusted images of boot/recovery (BUMP workaround not working). Flashed TWRP 2.8.7.3 via "dd" option and now I got error of certification when entering to recovery mode....

As I understand, flashing backuped KK bootloader will fix it? Bootloader is only on ABOOT partition?

Oh, and I must bump stock LP kernel to boot up a system, yes?
[G2 Android Development] Sunandroid:
There's an app called autorec in the playstore which does everything you need to do to get the recovery going with 5.0 stock rom/kernel. No need to bump the kernel btw. Why signing a kernel that has a "official" LG signature on it already? ;)
[G2 Android Development] PolishVodka:
I know about AutoRec, this was way for me to flash Recovery on KK.

But I only wanna ask if my method is right, to flash backuped KK bootloader (ABOOT partition) and bumped kernel (maybe this step is useless, this is official kernel).
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
No, anything pre-3.0 it doesn't matter if you have JB or KK.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
February 13, 2016 (3.0.0-3)

-Issues with JB fixed! Can now boot on JB or KK.

++Now using CM kernel

++Reverted a bunch of CM kernel commits

++To fix JB, reverted all commits back to when JB support was removed

++Added my commits on top of that

-Reverted some crypto stuff, may have caused issues for some devices.

++Decryption is still working as it should.

-Fixed ADB. ADB working now as it should.

Also, I don't know what the deal with aroma is, nor have I really spent any time on it. (Just FYI, before someone asks)

VS980 flashed 3.0.0-3 I am still having a very long pause with the LG screen and then with the initial TWRP screen. Maybe 10+ seconds for each now. Never had this before. Is this normal with 3.0? Bootloader is xdabbeb_vs98039a

v3.0.0-3 same as 3.0.0-1 on my D802 and hybrid bootstack works as it should. Thanks.

I installed the Google Edition 1.4 and Aroma worked but did not check if it works after reboot into recovery .

But still log of twrp breaks in aroma and we kinda distorted screen .
[G2 Android Development] desirexel:
D800 3.0.0-3 works no white line as in 3.0.0-2.. Backing up data is ok.. But flashing takes an eternity... It does flash but takes so long that people think is not flashing..
[G2 Android Development] DS-1:
I've waited for an hour, while with 2.8.7.1 it doesn't stopped on 65% and the whole flash time was less than a minute!

In my L01f, CM 13 flashed with 3.0.0-3 for about 10 min slower than usual. But everything else works fine.
[G2 Android Development] dredq:
I agree flashing takes a very long time. And TWRP 3.0.0-3 is very slow with everything.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
Lots of you:

If ROM flashing isn't working at all, you should check the Mount tab and make sure your system isn't mounted Read-Only.

As to speed, I still haven't decided what to do about it.

Check your adb version and try a different one perhaps. 1.0.32 is what is working for me.
[G2 Android Development] skepticmisfit:
3.0.0-3, also have the installation issue with the newest cm nightly. i feel like that's not a TWRP issue though, take my words with a grain of salt.

and my system is not mounted read only.
[G2 Android Development] Startrek852:
I'm using 1.0.32, I even tried a different computer, but adb still says unauthorized.

Thanks you [MENTION=5031300]blastagator[/MENTION] for all your hard work man! We all appreciate it. Maybe take a break and come back to it another day. 2.8.7.3 still works fine.

[G2 Android Development] johnb380:
Tbh my pc is down so I'm waiting to flash Twrp 3 until it is confirmed stable and all issues are ironed out. Sorry. I am more than happy with 2.8.7.3.

I mean it's recovery I need it to work and I only use it to flash roms and kernels once in awhile. I don't need bleeding edge features and looks I just need something that works and 2.8.7.3 does so I'm happy!
[G2 Android Development] Startrek852:
Well, that sucks! Does anyone else have a D801 that can test this?
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I will revert to the old tree and run the new build and designate as BETA again. Will only do next release after good beta testing. As someone pointed out, recovery doesn't need every bell and whistle, it just needs to work reliably. Previous tree was good to us and that is what really matters :)
[G2 Android Development] PYCON:
Thank u for your hard work, we'll very happy of TWRP daily use :good:

I'm not an expert but I suppose that only latest 3.0.0-3 has a little bug, not the whole family 3.x :highfive:
[G2 Android Development] dorimanx:
All i miss in 2.8.7.3 is ntfs for otg.

Nothing else needed :)

Can you please add it, just small old ver for devs. Without recovery i am doomed. So i didnt used any of 3.x

Any way thanks for your hard work.
[G2 Android Development] skepticmisfit:
3.0.0-0 flashes ROMs fine for me, is something super broken about it?
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I'm going to run a beta using omni-6 tree and then if still problems, probably try 5.1 and then ultimately back to 4.4

Next batch will have beta version number :)
[G2 Android Development] tmanschuette:
This version just has the new mounts allowed, it will not auto convert your filesystem.

I don't know what you mean. How can you select zips if there is no file manager?
[G2 Android Development] je2854:
I've tried formatting /data and it days input password...

It acts like I've put a password on it but how when it's freshly formatted?

I was poking around some older Nexus 7 f2fs threads and I came across a couple things:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=51521754&highlight=f2fs#post51521754

from [MENTION=788951]LiquidSolstice[/MENTION]

"I figured out what the problem was. It's a lot simpler than what you describe.*

The reason why I (and I imagine, you as well as the others) are running into this issue has to do with how we're reading the instructions. When the OP says "Format Data" and not to use the "Wipe/Factory Reset", I assumed he was referring to wiping the partitions through the Advanced Wipe menu.

What he's actually referring to is the Format Data button to the right of "Advanced Wipe". The one where you have to manually type "yes" to properly format your storage. That's where I went wrong, and I hope that helps you out too."

Apparently using the normal wipe only wipes /data, but skips /data/media.

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/f2fs-put-to-the-test-against-ext4/#comment-1312611581

Also from [MENTION=788951]LiquidSolstice[/MENTION]

" The encryption bug because you need to convert the entire data partition to F2FS, not just /data, because formatting /data in TWRP will always skip /data/media*."

nexus 7 4.4.4 f2fs
[G2 Android Development] je2854:
Found out the hard way...

If you convert /data with F2FS

/data/media goes with it.
[G2 Android Development] dorimanx:
if you format /data/media you will loose all the SDCARD storage.

it's not belong to encryption.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I'm out! Until next Monday. Hope everything continues to work swimmingly. :)

[G2 Android Development] 60nine:
- i downloaded your TWRP zip for my d802 model

- i'm using Cloudyfa G3 v2.0 rom with dorimanx' latest beta kernel (v8.7.1)

probbably a stupid question(s), but still:

can i just flash your recovery zip through my old autorec flashed TWRP 2.7.x.x without losing any data, reflashing rom etc.? (i don't care about f2fs, i just want to update the recovery version)

before someone fishslaps me - i went through all the posts in this thread... and sorry for asking a question in the dev thread... (maybe this question can be a part of FAQ in the OP so noone asks it again - just a suggestion)

thanks in advance
[G2 Android Development] luv2increase:
Just flash recovery through your twrp recovery. After you do it, reboot into recovery. Simple. You flash it just like anything else.

[G2 Android Development] Startrek852:
Dude, everybody knows!!! People have known since beta 0.8.9.5, so no need to keep telling them.
[G2 Android Development] blastagator:
I will check in on IRC later with the TWRP guys to see if aroma is an issue on other devices. This build I didn't really change anything that should affect AROMA, so I'm not really sure what I can do.

Graphics minui was changes a lot in the upgrade to MM/3.0.0 I did enable overlay graphics (which our device supports). Not sure if that is the issue, but it shouldn't be.

edit: per dees_troy: "blastagator, my standard response to aroma problems in TWRP is that it's an aroma problem, not a TWRP problem >_>"

I do not have this issue. I'd recommend disabling the screen timeout. (Probably not the most satisfying answer, but that should work)

What file system?
[G2 Android Development] pdimi70:
You are right, false alarm, usb stick probably damaged
[G2 Android Development] kolouch.petr:
update: I have just entered to TWRP 3.0.0.4 (-Hold power + vol down, then, release and hold vol up + vol down.) but Im not able to repeat it... maybe there is problem in timing. I tried it 50 times and cant figure how to do it right way :(((
[G2 Android Development] johnb380:
I believe you must power off the phone first then click at the exact same time and hold vol - and power til u see LG screen then real fast, like half a second, let go and switch to vol- & vol+ then hold til recovery pops up.
[G2 Android Development] dorimanx:
And just for the record, recovery has no hand in button combo. Its the bootloader who control it.

Do as written above, should work just fine.

i need help. been trying for 2 days with no succes.

i use both recovery and kernel.

am on 9.0 kernel and i have used 2.8.7.3 aand latest 3.0.0.4

on d800 AT&T cheloz 4.0uix. V4 rom

cant get it to stay as f2fs.

ive done it 2 ways. for days this is the second time i struggle twice.

clean installation. all as ext4/ boot into system. and let it settle for 5 mins.

then i install dorimanx 9.0 kernel. boot into system let it settle.. then open dorimanx kernel. just to make sure its online.

boot into recovery. either 2.8.7.3 or newest and do a back up of all. rename data.ext4.win to data.f2fs.win same for cache

change DATA/CACHE to f2fs in back up folder. md5 files too.

go into recovery. select wipe. advance/ then i change system file for data then i go back select cache.

and i reboot into recovery from recovery to take effect.

rename data.ext4.win to data.f2fs.win if am doing the whole nandroid i wipe all and restore back up.

but only cache stays as f2fs. data reverts to ext4 and deletes all settings..

or i do is same jus instead of backing up all i do data and cache back up. change them to file system.then reboot into recovery from recovery. rename data.ext4.win to data.f2fs.win and md5 too. restore them and same thing it never changges to f2fs.. can you please help. ive followed you steps from first page and it doesnt stay f2fs..
[G2 Android Development] smartpr1v4t3:
Why u dont install rom with data and cache in f2fs?

Convert data and cache to f2fs then install rom and kernel.

Done
[G2 Android Development] gozzaa:
Iam having the exact same problem :eek:

I know it's vol down + power then vol up+vol down when lg screen shows up

I get it working every 30 tries or something. I just make sure that I don't bootloop

Never had this problem with old bootloader (vol down+power twice)
[G2 Android Development] raptorddd:
i will try that.. thanks

in that sequence

wipe all

have data/cache converted to f2fs . reboot into recovery to take effect.

install rom and install kernel. boot into system.?

i think ive done it like that and it reverts to ext4. even id system file is f2fs.

only cache stays f2fs..

but will try it just like that
[G2 Android Development] kolouch.petr:
yeah just like me - problem is in bootloader who controls the hardkeys. to enter to recovery. Is there anyone who can advice the right bootloader for D802 and CM13 ?????????? thankss
[G2 Android Development] masteryx:
For those having issues entering recovery with the hardware keys, try this:

- power off the phone, wait 5 seconds

- press vol down, keep it pressed

- press power button, keep it pressed

- when the LG logo shows up, release only the power button (keep pressing vol down)

- immediately press vol up and keep both volume buttons pressed until the erase phone dialog appears.

In other words do what you did before, but without releasing vol down at all. This always worked for me.
[G2 Android Development] kolouch.petr:
not working for me :( Had no problem since I upgraded bootstack.
