Are you on lollipop or KitKat?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Grondinm:
And did you have the issue with 2.8.1.0 and changed permissions on TWRP before going to 2.8.3.0?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] revengineer:
My setup is as described by dobbs3x and yes I had the same trouble with 2.8.1.0.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] revengineer:
My OTG adapter just arrived and I can report that backups with v2.8.3.0 work fine when using an external USB drive formatted as FAT32 as the target drive. So something is definitely weird with the Moto X internal memory. Given the small (32 GB in my case) amount of memory, it may be better to not junk up the storage with TWRP backup, and I am happy with keeping these backups externally on my server.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

New issue with 2.8.3.0: I noticed that the settings (e.g., time zone) are not preserved. Following a reboot, all settings are reverted to default. So it's back to v2.8.0.1. Given the fact that there are no dev responses to these issues, I am wondering if anyone knows of a better thread/forum to discuss the bugs.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] alediniz:
OP updated :D

CHANGELOG for 2.8.4.0:

-Add flashing of boot and recovery images via the TWRP GUI (Find the Images button on the Install page)

-Fix some MTP related crashes and bugs

-Eliminate TWRP toggling USB IDs during boot if MTP is enabled

-Fix various adb sideload issues

-Improve threading of actions

-Eliminate separate thread for screen timeout

-Update libblkid to 2.25.0

-Use power button as back button on watch themes for easier navigation

-Add mutex locking to data manager

-Improve custom theme handling on encrypted devices

-Allow the stock theme to be offset by build flags so we can center a lower res theme on a higher res screen especially for watches with round screens

Hi guys, I kinda screwed up today and allowed my phone to enter OTA Update mode with the custom recovery. Anyone here have the stock one for 4.4.4 victara_br?? Also, some instructions on how to proceed.

If no one did that before, the phone keeps returning to recovery, since it didn't updated yet.

EDIT: Wiping cache and dalvik made the phone boot up again, the update file is at /cache/file.zip

Does this support encryption?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] revengineer:
Tested v2.8.4.0. Works fine with OTG. However, I still cannot backup to internal storage. It seems that the issue with the settings not being retained has been resolved.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] skulldreamz:
Strange, twrp has worked perfect backing up to internal and usb-otg for me. What error are you getting when backing up to internal storage? 1 thing I always do is wipe EVERYTHING and format data/media and then reboot back into twrp to mount data, do another factory reset and then flash a rom using adb sideload and/or usb-otg. I know my way might sound a bit excessive but I never experience issues that others do. Might be worth a shot..
[X 2014 Original Android Development] revengineer:
I did not do any of this. My phone is stock kitkat with unlocked bootloader and root. I read someone fixed the issue by formatting data in twrp. I have not yet tried that. My issue is same as user reported with screen shots above. Cannot the create directory or something like that.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] sivarticus85:
It was noticed that TWRP does not format the Data partition as f2fs, but as ext4. Will this be added at a later date?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] Shemploo:
It looks like the option to change FS to F2FS is there when you install a theme, I got it under TWRP Materiel theme, but it seems that this might just be a button designed in case the function is introduced as it actually does not convert the FS.

After loading the Material theme to get the Change FS to F2FS, the log says "mkfs.f2fs binary not found, using rm -rf to wipe" which leads me to believe something got left out of latest version of TWRP and it's causing this issue?

I'm going to try previous versions of TWRP see if that fixes it.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] michyall:
Did you tried last version? I'm on last version and i'm experiencing same issues. Wrong time/date and settings resetted. I've read about qualcomm and twrp date/time but have found no further answers/solutions, is this still a known issue or is there a solution?

If you solved rolling back to older version i think that my readings about qualcomm and twrp is no more valid, that's why i am confused.

how to move my TWRP backup folder into PC? (without usb otg)

i can see the folder on root explorer, but when i connected to pc i cant see the backup folder
[X 2014 Original Android Development] michyall:
Adb pull from recovery
[X 2014 Original Android Development] henhida:

[X 2014 Original Android Development] michyall:
1) search in internet for adb pull push

2) buy usb otg cable or dual usb memory

3) try to copy backup folder into another folder like download and see if you can move to your pc.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] -iNSiGhT-:
Two ways :

-find a flashable zip of the newest version and just flash it through TWRP.

- get the .img from TWRP site then, in bootloader (fastboot mode) flash the image with this command line :

fastboot flash recovery NameOfTheFile.img
[X 2014 Original Android Development] fhreire:
I flashed the ".img" file through TWRP, thanks.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] DIXZ06:

[X 2014 Original Android Development] kcustom11:
Does anyone get a password prompt for when they have an encrypted data partition? I thought twrp was supposed to have encryption support. Most of the forums talk about how to convert a grid password into numbers, however I never get the prompt for a password when I try to mount data. It just tells me that its unable to mount /data. Is encryption not working on the moto x yet working on other devices? Or should I do something differently?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
If you search the cm 12 thread, I posted a test version of twrp that should support encrypted devices. Those changes should also be in the next official release.

[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
That looks right and matches what twrp is using as a partition size. Maybe a bad download? Next time you install twrp, try the fastboot again.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] alvareo:
I really hope it will, it's specially annoying since we can't restore /data like this. I assume using stock recovery to wipe data will return it to f2fs? Let's see.

It does. I tested this out around the same time that I posted my comment.

It didn't for me, strangely enough, which means I'm stuck with EXT4 unless I want to delete everything all over again (I assume EXT4 backups are as incompatible with F2FS as F2FS backups are to EXT4?)

Trouble with encrypted volumes

I have an encrypted phone, and I can't seem to mount it using TWRP 2.8.5.0. I used to have an encrypted Nexus 4, and on it TRWP managed to mount the data properly, after asking for the key. Is it some known issue, or am I missing something?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] alvareo:
The above mentioned CM TWRP has support for encrypted partitions
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
I know it has support for encrypted partitions. I used it with an encrypted Nexus 4. But it doesn't seem to work with my Moto-X, so I am wondering if there is some known issue.

Does anyone here use an encrypted Moto-X, and manage to mount it in TWRP?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] alvareo:
If your issue is with the CM TWRP you should ask about it in its respective thread
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
OK, so maybe I am missing something - what is CM TWRP? I have TWRP 2.8.5.0 installed on my Moto-X, and I can't seem to mount my encrypted partition. You believe it might be related to me using CM12? It might, I really wouldn't know. But that's why I am asking if anyone else here is using an encrypted Moto-X with TWRP, and whether or not it works for them, so I can try and find out if it is related to my current ROM, or maybe there is something else.

[X 2014 Original Android Development] nerotix:
[MENTION=912474]Dees_Troy[/MENTION]

[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:

[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
Can you grab the recovery.log?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
I tried, but not being able to mount my data, I don't think the "Copy log to SDCard" really works...

Is there some way I can use adb get the logs out?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
Use the terminal (under advanced, I think?) and copy it to a USB stick?
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
I actually got an OTG cable from someone here at work, which worked fine in normal boot. But I couldn't mount the USB OTG in TWRP. Sorry.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] alvareo:
adb pull should work
[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
I didn't suggest adb pull as I thought adb was secure in twrp. If I'm wrong, just do that. If not, maybe use the twrp terminal to cat the log and then use something else to take a picture? Hopefully any error will be at the end of the log and visible.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
Maybe I am missing something - where can I adb pull *from*? When I'm in TWRP, I can go to "Advanced" and then tap on "Copy Log to SD". It says "Copied recovery log to /data/media." But my /data partition is not even mounted, so I was really not surprised I couldn't find any log file in there.

Do the TWRP log contain any more info than what I actually see in the TWRP console? Because if that is all there is, it's quite short and simple -

I can take a photo of it, but there isn't anything else in there.

If the logs contain more detailed information, how can I view it? or how can I pull it? (from where?)
[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
A quick search gives this which looks believable (I haven't checked that it is still valid though):

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/24120-how-to-get-a-log-from-twrp/
[X 2014 Original Android Development] ATGardner:
OK, I think I got it -

I couldn't connect with adb to my device while in TWPR (driver problems, maybe), but I did find the log file in the cache/recovery folder, and after a reboot back to system, I found this file in there. I hope these logs help.
[X 2014 Original Android Development] crpalmer:
The logs do help. It looks like something went wrong with how the 2.8.6 version was built relative to how I was building it when making the changes to support encryption. I'll need to dig more into it (I'm not really a twrp developer, just helping out a little bit).

Just out of curiosity, does this one work any better? I compile my own releases and noticed mine came out bigger, but its using the same device trees (or should be). Maybe post the logs again if it still fails.

This zip is not flashable, you'll have to extract the image and use fastboot. The image itself is too big to attach directly.

I can confirm from a friend that the "fastboot boot recoveryimage.img" command does not work on 2.8.6.0. I did not try it personally, but I am sure it'll be the same result for me. 2.8.5.0 works with that command though
