[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
If you look at the update script for the OTA, the first two thirds of it are dedicated to checking the system partition (and maybe other partitions. It's a pretty long read and I certainly haven't read all of it) for modifications. If the update is failing, that means it has detected something that does not match what it is checking for. I don't think the qe flag matters, because in the past I'm pretty sure that I've been at 1/1, and after a successful OTA it changes to 0/1.

trial TWRP or temp TWRP custom recovery

trial TWRP or temp TWRP custom recovery

Don't know if this would help someone install an update like this, but let me throw this out there. There's a way to boot to TWRP custom recovery and use TWRP without installing TWRP. Think of it as "temporary" TWRP.

Thus, you should still be able to flash stuff, including any TWRP-flashable updates,

boot logos (to replace the unlocked bootloader warning

, SuperSu, etc -- and when you reboot you still have stock recovery.

Now, I don't know why anyone would want to keep stock recovery when TWRP recovery does so much more... But I just recently helped someone with the same suggestion. He wanted to install SuperSu, get root, but keep stock recovery -- for some reason.

Anyway, think of it as "trial TWRP" or "temp TWRP".

I remembered when I made factory images for my Quark, in a variety of states, I used this temporary TWRP trick. I'd almost forgotten about it! ;)

So, seems like you could flash THIS

TWRP-flashable version of this update

while temporarily booting to TWRP (but not actually installing it), and it wouldn't matter if everything "checked" out or not.

Of course, if you like it, then you can always install it permanently.

For reference, here's the most recent version of TWRP for our phone. (use the one with the most recent post date. [MENTION=5747496]bhb27[/MENTION] updates it fairly often.)

TWRP FOR QUARK

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=39562

Here's my complete reply:

______

TEMPORARY TWRP

OK, here's another suggestion. There is a way to boot to TWRP to install SuperSu but NOT install TWRP. You will not be flashing TWRP over stock recovery. You will STILL have stock recovery when you reboot. Think of it as "temporary" TWRP.

Put the TWRP file in your ADB folder and use this command. Your phone will boot to TWRP, but it will not be permanently installed. You can then flash SuperSu while booted into the TWRP interface and then reboot back to your system.

fastboot boot file-name.img (whatever your file name of TWRP is.)

Whereas, the command to permanently install TWRP is this:

fastboot flash recovery file-name.img (whatever your file name of TWRP is.)

___

Back when I first got this phone -- now over two years ago -- I made a bunch of backups in TWRP and posted the images online in various stages -- pure stock, stock + root, stock + root + TWRP. I made the first two with the "temporary" TWRP. People could flash them and already have root without having TWRP installed.

Moto Maxx - Moto Turbo XT1225 factory images (Mexico | Puerto Rico | India | Brazil)

https://xdaforums.com/moto-maxx/development/moto-maxx-moto-turbo-xt1225-factory-t3078274

See? Even just stock + rooted but with no TWRP. I made that backup with a "temporary" TWRP which did not overwrite the stock recovery.

But they were only for 4.4.4 Kitkat, which came with this phone. After we went to Lollipop, I posted some more images, but just pure factory. Still, the "temporary" TWRP trick is useful.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Emppulis:
Ok. Today after i updated my honor 8 to EMUI 5.0 my root was gone. I went and tried rooting my system again and when i was in TWRP i acidentally deleted EVERYTHING on the device (dont ask me how i can be so retarded). I then tried to find a solution on how to unbrick my Honor 8.

After downloading the stock firmware for Honor 8 and trying to flash it onto my device i ran into a problem. When i tried flashing cust.img, and system.img it just didnt work. Here are the results.

Just think about it:

if we could combine the home-screen of PointUI with the contact list and sms-functions of PocketCM and the full screen caller ID of S2U2.

That would be the perfect WM5/6 phone: user friendly and with all the options, IMHO better than the cube.

Any genius that knows how to? I'm only good with thinking it up :-P
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Gajet:
I already do this.

The Pointui forum explains how to change the lock application, so it can be pointed to S2U2. I don't use it's Caller ID function, but can't see there'd be a problem, I might have a play later, but the wife has nicked my phone.

It also explains how you can alter the default media player link, just change this to point to PocketCM, OK currently you can't change the icon, so PocketCM will still be presented as the musical note icon, but you know what it does.

It all works pretty well.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Daanmannetje:
Ok I couldn't find it yet, I'll look for it.

Hopefully in the future it will be integraded, but for now I love PointUI.

I found some minor issues, but this is only version 1.01, I'm looking forward to the next version..

By the way, I really don't like S2U2, I just like the full screen caller ID
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elFahd:
to merge S2U2 with pointUI you gotta do this:

with a registry editor procede with the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > Software > Pointui > Pointui.home > 1.01b

there create a String Value with the following information

Name
App.Path.LockScreen

Value
\Program Files\S2U2\S2U2.exe

of course assuming that S2U2 is installed on phone memory. if not get the path of S2U2.exe from File Explorer.

Now you can press the lock button from pointUI home and lock ur device with S2U2 and having its full screen dialer.

CHEERS 8-)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ramontrotman:
what about the pocketcm one? :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Daanmannetje:
I got it working, but why can't I change the phone icon to pocketCM? I tried to add App.Path.Phone, but it didn't work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
Because they (PointUI devs) haven't made that icon configurable. But otherwise, I do this. I have my lock point to S2U2, use callerID of S2U2 with no issues. I have my music icon point to FFF for contacts. (I had it set to my PocketPlayer for music at first, but I use FFF more often, so I switched it.)

Also, since S2U2 has the "lock on wake up" option, and the "lock on timeout" options, it still autostarts. I still leave iLock2.exe in my start up folder with home.exe. I let S2U2 engage even when Home is running (at first I tried to exclude it, but it makes more sense not to exclude it). So, all 3 progs work nicely together! And on my Kaiser, memory is not an issue!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 2manyphones:
They are 3 different developers...

These will always be 3 different applications, so we just need to wait for more customization of PointUI for better integration. I have all 3 running great right now. A couple ways (other than mapping the music icon or going into applications) I have found you can access pocket CM currently:

1. A. Down arrow at bottom of home screen. B. Favorites. C. PocketCM. Yes it is three keys, but it isn't bad.

2. I don't use Tasks, so I created a registry string to map tasks to PocketCM. Now all I do is scroll to "Tasks" on the screen and press it and it opens PocketCM. The string name is App.Path.Tasks and the data is \Program Files\PocketCM\PocketCM.exe (assuming you have it installed to the device).

There are a couple ways to get to the Chrome browser, and that's what you want to do. What I did was type in the login field, select the text, and then select "ASSIST" in the pop-up window.

When the Google App appears, start typing "Chrome." Select the Chrome app when it appears.

In Chrome, search for "Test DPC Apk." Dowload. Open and install. You'll have to give permission to use unkown third-party apps in settings. Once installed, run. Select "Set up device owner." Keep going through all the options. Expect the tablet to restart a couple times. Then go to settings and do a factory reset.

Encryption/decryption support is related to the /data partition (where your user files are stored). The encryption scheme changed for Nougat, so this is the first TWRP that supports being able to read/write to that encrypted /data partition.

Read-only system mode (aka systemless mode) - some people do not touch the system partition, so they can later apply OTAs easier (as they perform a diff on system files)

What if you boot again to fastbot and do: fastboot reboot (as it worked for you first time, upon the installation of TWRP.

Or: adb reboot recovery

And/or to flash TWRP again.

In that case you could flash 3.1.0-0 and the install 3.1.0-1 from TWRP 3.1.0-0.

Most of us did it probably that way since 3.1.0-1 is brand new, and we already had 3.1.0-0

Once I had problem with backing up Data (I didn't try to restore it since I didn't have yet its backup).

It was solved by flashing the stock boot image (and by rooting it again) - although I don"t understand how/why it helped.

Since you can boot to TWRP and you didn't root, you can try by installing the plain stock boot image b378_boot_stock.img

Only if you lock botloader again (same/similar procedure as tor unlocking), but it will also initiate hard reset (as unlocking the bootloader does), hence you will loose everything.
