[MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION]

Is this thread still being officially supported by you? If so, great, otherwise, please let us to know, so we can release unofficial twrp recovery versions! Thank you!!
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AdrianDC:
Interested to know that, as I had TWRP sources ready to go based on my Huashan / Mint / Tsubasa / Hayabusa official structures with the android-6.0 mainline ready to go

but you went for your cm-13.0, and given the amount of testing & usage of TWRP - MultiROM I do it's quite stable and reliable :D .
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AndroPlus:
yes, but I have little time for now...

I don't stop unofficial build since this is open source project, though I'd love to get PR or patch from you to improve official build.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] serajr:
Your MultiROM TWRP does work flawlessly! :highfive:

It would be great if you could help AndroPlus somehow on the official build. Unfortunately I don't have spare time to do that right now, maybe soon!

Take your time bro! :good:

Previously I successfully installed TWRP 3.0.2.0 but when I try to install the image for TWRP 3.0.2.0 or 3.0.3.0 now I get the message when starting to flash

'error at opening twrp-3-0-3-0-dora.img not a directory'.

This happens when I install from within TWRP I haven't tried the other method yet.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] itflexes:
Just bought the F8131 and got some question. Does installing TWRP and flashing kernel void the warranty? and How do I go back to original recovery? Will it disable android pay too?
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
Nougat and TWRP 3.0.3-0

I just installed android nougat on my Xperia x performance and flashed TWRP 3.0.3-0, but when rebooting pressing the volume down on the rocker switch does not get me into recovery, the hone just boots up.

I thaught TWRP 3.0.3-0 was nougat compatible, what might e going on?
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
I'm afraid I can second that. So I guess I will have to use the multiboot TWRP version for now.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
So where to get this multiboot twrp and how to solve it then?
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Look at AdrianDC's signature in post 22, under Multi-Rom Xperia X Perf. That leads you to this page.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
If I read it well, you need a custom recovery to install the multirom, I flashed Nougat and do not have a custom recovery anymore. Does this mean I have to revert to marshmallow and start all over again, first install MM and then nougat as second rom?
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Not at all. You first flash the latest Andro Plus Kernel, then the recovery. I don't think second ROM really works, or at least if you have to ask it's to difficult for you! (As it is for me...)
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AdrianDC:
If we're talking only about Recovery, you can use my MultiROM Recovery directly without one already there.

I added an info on how to flash the recovery only in case that can help you.

Just for those who'd not know, our MultiROM Recovery is mostly based on TWRP 3.0.2,

with additional features to support MultiROM of course, as well as general fixes made mostly with nkk71.

Also on a side note, MultiROM is working perfectly fine on the X Perf since more than 3 months,

I'm using it daily and all my "daily" ROMs on my devices are on the MicroSDs to leave primary for development & tests.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
I flashed twrp.img from multirom-20161218-recovery-fota-dora.zip but on reboot I still cannot get into recovery. I flashed it with fastboot. At reboot volume down does ot seem to work.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AdrianDC:
If you flashed that twrp.img with fastboot flash recovery, it has to work just fine when booting from Volume- & Power (BL has to be unlocked of course) and obviously the device has to be off before, it's a hardware boot to recovery.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
Correct, it does work as well as with twrp 3.0.3.0 but the activation method is a little bit different. Shutdown device boot while pressing and holding volume down and power button end then you boot into twrp. It used to be different under MM, then you could boot and press volume down multiple times to boot into twrp.

That was my mistake, I always tried on the MM way.

Thanks a lot

TWRP 3.0.3.0 does work but the activation is different.

Shutdown device boot while pressing and holding volume down and power button end then you boot into twrp. It used to be different under MM, then you could boot and press volume down multiple times to boot into twrp.

That was my mistake, I always tried on the MM way.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Let me see if I understand this. I have to first boot the phone, then press the power button and choose "reboot" and then hold the volume down while rebooting? Because if you mean to hold down the volume down constantly and then press power button and hold that, or even just press power button until it vibrates, then I have tried that. No multiple button presses here.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
For me the sequence is

Shut down the phone

press and hold volume down and powerbutton simultaneously until twrp screen appears, this can take a while

My phone does not vibrate when booting (this worked fine under MM)
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] serajr:
TWRP recovery of this thread (which still must be fixed) and Adrian DC's Multirom TWRP recovery (which works great) are meant for unlocked BL devices (the only requirement needed), and they also work with any custom kernel, like the one you can build with tobias's tool (Z5 forum)! Then to boot up into recovery you must always use combo-keys (Power and Volume Down)!

And "... press volume down multiple times to boot into twrp" will work with AndroPlus kernel only!!
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AdrianDC:
Will also work with my init_sony project (included in my stock patcher alternative)

used on most AOSP and CM/Lineage Sony projects since Marshmallow.

TWRP 3.0.3-0

[MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION] thank you for the updated version (3.0.3-0), it does boot up now as it should, but it still needs some work on decrypt data/stotage (Adrian DC's twrp does decrypt data/stotage with default_password and works flawlesly, maybe you should look into his code).

Here are some screenshots and its log:
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Beetle84:
What buttons do you use to enter recovery? Ive tried Vol down and power, vol up/down when the green led lights up but no luck.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] serajr:
Firstly turn device off. Now turn it on by pressing

Power

and

Volume Down

buttons at same time, after vibration, release the

Power

button only, and keep pressed

Volume Down

(release it bit later, about 5 secs).
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Beetle84:
No good, is 3.0.3-0 MM only? I may have rushed in a bit, im using nougat.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] serajr:
I don't think so! I think it is supposed to work on both MM and N.

Did you flash it with fastboot (fastboot flash recovery ...)?
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Beetle84:
No im on holiday and away from my computer and I flashed it as an .img through twrp. I'll be home in 10 days and can try through fastboot then.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Beetle84, try to flash it a second time. I just did, and this time it took. So now it starts up in recovery when I hold the volume down-button.

Edit: Just to make it clear, I first flashed it, then I flashed back to the multi-boot version and today I flashed the latest version again, and this time it actually starts up in recovery. No idea why, I didn't do anything different from the previous time, and it's the same file (I didn't even re-download it).
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Beetle84:
Thanks, but i went to an internet Cafe and downloaded minimal adb and fastboot and updated their drivers :)

Problem solved!
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] shoey63:
Building TWRP from official sources for X/suzu results in the same data decryption issues. [MENTION=2233641]Adrian DC[/MENTION], what commits or fstab tweaks do I need to apply to get twrp to read encrypted /data? I'm building with Omnirom 6.0 sources and bootable/recovery 7.1.1 branch for twrp.

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] AdrianDC:
I had started TWRP sources for the Xperia X, tested with another dev who owns it,

but as you said the decryption side is not working properly,

and working remote for these kind of things is slow and hard,

I didn't have time to look into it since that.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] lucifero13:
Is it okay to "install" the TWRP from Play Store? Total noob here
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] tatomolina11:
[MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION] I'm having an issue with recovery it doesn't shows the internal storage... Using X Performance Dual 64gb is there any fix?

Edit: Using Andro Plus Kernel V21 and TWRP-3.0.2-4-dora on FW .417
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] R_captivate:
When is ask for the password use your phone password. It worked for me.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] orkanamn:
Yeah it's fine to download the Official TWRP app. I'm not sure how well it works though, I ended up downloading latest twrp through it and flashed with Rashr.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] tatomolina11:
That made it, thanks mate!
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] tatomolina11:
I flash files through recovery but not mod installed, try on YouTube and stock screen recording and no mod
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] serajr:
OP you should try to keep the title of the thread updated, please do so if (and when) you have some free time.

TWRP 3.1.0-0 has just been released!
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] wzhy:
Got freezed or the touch could not working? The only way to work around is turn off screen and then turn on. How to fix this?

I enter the FOTA kernel by pressing power and vol down when poweroff. then it will boot the fota partition as well.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] deboopi2:
I've got the same problem with a frozen window (currently on twrp 3.1.1.0) and indeed turn screen off and on again fixes this, it's a not a big problem but always nice to see it fixed
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] tomhtg90:
i know this problem it's happened a long time ago.

But, after unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, i do this : (Please read this before you doing it. Because it will delete all of your data)

1. Unplug the phone from your pc and then turn off the phone

2. Boot into fastboot mode (hold the volume up button while plugging the phone into your pc)

3. Open CMD and type

fastboot format userdata

4. And then unplug the phone from your pc again and then boot into TWRP (hold volume -/down and power button simultanieuosly. Release the power button when the the phone vibrate. Release the volume -/down when the Sony logo came up)

5. Flash Androplus kernel or other patched kernel that support your phone.

6. Flash supersu or magisk (optional)

7. Now you can reboot your phone

Enjoy your phone. I hope it helps.

Hi, [MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION]

Oreo for XP is rolling out, can you add support for it?

It says it can't decrypt or mount /data.

Attachment is recovery log and kernel log

thx
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Yes, please! I'm expecting that update soon too.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Correction: I have that update too now, but I can't really install it before I get root access. Too much apps and stuff that has to be Titanium Backup restored to do it manually.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] gaki25252:
is it any possibility to install this in locked bootloader and how? my device is SOV33 it cannot be opened
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
Do you mean in locked bootloader, not unlocked? If so, I don't think that's possible in any way.
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] gaki25252:
yes, sorry. so I guess I'm stuck then
[Sony Xperia X Performance ROMs, Kernels, Recoverie] Mastiff:
I blieve so. All guides I've seen has said that you need to unlock the bootloader before you can install anything but original ROMs.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] memo45:
Most people say that the oneplus 3's screen is just a piece of crap...I would have bought the axon 7 if its bootloader wasn't locked and it had a better camera. So I have the iPhone 5 and even though it's a 4-inch display it's sharp enough and you can't see any pixels,so how does the pentile screen holds up because the oneplus 3 is one hell of a phone
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] m.denb:
It's plenty sharp unless you want to use it for Virtual Reality. The OP3 actually has a higher pixel per inch count than the iPhone. The pentile matrix does make it a little less sharp, but not something you will notice in normal use. I had my Nexus 5 (2013) and OP3 side by side and I could see a difference, if I held the phone at 20 cm from my face. Anywhere further than that, not at all. Also, it uses less battery than e.g. 1440p displays, which is why the battery life on the OP3 is really good.

Finally, the sRGB mode is heaven for me. Almost perfect color calibration with amoled blacks. I'll take that trade-off for pentile everyday. And if you like high saturation, just turn sRGB off and you also get a white balance slider! The choice is yours.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] memo45:
Actually I do plan on using VR but it's not that big of a deal
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] m.denb:
Depends on how much you use it I'd say. A friend of mine got the S7 edge with a VR headset. He used it twice in the first week he got it. Now it's gathering dust somewhere... It's mostly still a gimmick. But if you're really into it, YouTube is increasing its VR content and some games can be found on the play store.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] memo45:
I care about everyday usage (being fast),normal media consumption (like watching videos or using Spotify) more than VR really and I really care about the camera
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] emptyragnarok:
I have s7 edge and OP 3 both.. I don't feel OP 3 has bad display! it might not be as good as S7 edge.. but definitely it's not pathetic display. It's very good display for day to day usage..
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] 1337jay:
The display on the OnePlus 3 is pretty awesome, far better than on my One M9 for example. It may not be the best on the market but it surely isn't bad and it is far from sucking, lol.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Bidiminished:
At medium or high brightness with sRGB mode the display is great. Look really closely and you can see that it isn't perfectly sharp, but it is nonetheless FHD and you shouldn't be looking at your phone with a viewing distance of 5 cm anyway. Normal viewing distances are fine.

The minimum brightness is a bit problematic: if you turn it down all the way the dark colours seem to become actual black, so it becomes harder to see things.

Calling the display trash is surely an overstatement. It's viewing angles, blacks, minimum/maximum brightness, colour accuracy, resolution and pixel density are good to excellent. It's definitely not the best display you can get, but it's far from being terrible.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Saad Ali:
The people that say the display sucks are people that don't have the phone. I have a nexus 6p and OP 3 and I couldn't tell a difference between the screen resolution of both. Not even when I'm playing game. 1080p is easily rectifiable compared to 720p, 2k is not that much from 1080p unless you're looking at small text from 3 inches.

The colors on the default mode are over saturated and are a bit over the top but majority of casual users like it more. The display on sRGB is one of the best displays on the market. It's so pleasing to the eyes, it's almost 100% accurate yet the blacks are deep. My nexus 6p has almost as good display on sRGB but it has started to suffer from screen burn because of navigation bar.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Daemos:
I have a OP3, LG G4, OPO and LG G3 that I can compare to.

Holding the phone at my normal reading distance or even slightly closer I cannot tell the difference in sharpness between the displays.

The biggest differences are colour saturation and black levels along with screen brightness. The LG G4 and G3 are very saturated and unnatural looking.

Opo with kcal calibration and op3 with sRGB look more neutral.

Min brightness on g3 is high and blacks On op3 is the best.

It's strange that all of you guys are saying that it's not a bad display while the whole forum is *****ing about it

I have seen a review that I could actually see the pixels on oneplus 3 screen's on video,hope it's the camera he was recording with
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Paraless:
Not at all, it's pretty good if you do some necessary tweaks. Personally, I'm using Sultan ROM with sRGB mode (Photography mode) and the following calibrations: Red 93%, Green 87%, Blue 100%, Saturation 6%, Intensity 8. It looks great, natural colors, slightly saturated so they don't look too washed, and AMOLED black. I'm quite happy, honestly.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Madhawk1995:
So you recommend op3?

I have a g3. I don't want to give up ir blaster sd card or removable batteries. Plus glass screen protector with no issues. But night time use with that AMOLED is nice. I don't like how it doesn't have multiwindow nor one handed view like my g3.

Hopefully it gets nougat quickly. I'll see how the Pixel XL is but if it's $750+ I'm not paying double. The OP 3 is a beast. I'll only consider the Google phone if it's $600. Which it won't be so hopefully I get a OnePlus 3 without screen uniformity issue this time.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sofir786:
As soon as you root, you trip knox which is not reversible. Pit files tell odin what files to flash to which partition on the phone, using an incorrect pit file can cause a failed flash and damage to the phone. What you can do is download.
