I put up 2.6.3.3 which on the twrp website is only a flashable zip. but if you don't have a recovery on 12b what good is a flashable zip?

ahh i gotcha. Wasnt sure of the purpose of these. but, now i know.

i'm still getting errors when flashing kernels...assert failed: run_program(" /tmp/loki.sh")
i only got this after updating to 12B (derp). flashing roms works fine however.
any ideas? and thank you for your post.

thanks for taking a look! :good:

Thanks man, really appreciate it.
I'd love it of you'd upload it. More importantly tho can you explain why certain Roms/kernels don't flash without error? It's a recovery issue I'm assuming? Hoping a recovery is update will be made available soon. If not I'm contemplating flashing back back to 11A lol.

[TWRP][RECOVERY] ODIN .TAR (2.7.1.0) for I9505G GE Galaxy S IV

Hey Everyone the folks over at TEAM WIN RECOVERY PROJECT put together an image file for TWRP recovery for the I9505G. I take NO CREDIT for this but I did convert the image into an ODIN flashable .TAR file because an ODIN tar was not available on TWRP website. I have tested and flashed this on my Locked Bootloader and Stock Google Edition Galaxy S IV running 4.2.2. Please make sure you Unlock the Bootloader if you want to Root your phone, the Root will not work if you try to install it from Recovery on reboot.
As Always I am not responsible if you brick your phone doing any modification
HOW TO INSTALL
Open up ODIN and click on PDA
Select Recovery.tar from the attachment you downloaded
Make sure ONLY "AUTO REBOOT" is checked
Click START
After you see the PASS on Odin and "Removed" Unplug
Power Off or Pull the battery
Use Volume Up and the Power till you see the SAMSUNG logo and let go of all. Wait for TWRP to boot, it took a little longer so your not stuck, just be patient.
8/30/2023 / 2.6.1.0
10/14/2013 / 2.6.3.0
07/21/2014 / 2.7.1.0
UPDATED TWRP IMAGES AND .TAR ODIN FILES http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jgedlte
-----------------------------------------
KNOWN ISSUES For 2.6.0.0 & 2.6.1.0: 8/31/2023 ( post any help info on further releases ) UPDATE 7/21/2014 I have not been using the I9505G for awhile now so I am not sure of any issues or bugs on the latest releases please post them in the thread.
I have used TWRP from the Team Win site and the Odin package image I put together here and I have noticed and reported 2 bugs. The first is you can get stuck on TWRP screen booting into recovery, just pull the battery or reflash again until it boots up. The second is that when you restore sometimes you will get a FAIL immediately, don't panic, (1) reflash a ROM, and Restore or (2), pull battery and reboot back into recovery and Restore or (3) wipe and then Restore.
This build has some minor issues but if you follow this guide you will be OK.
Thanks to the Folks at TEAM WIN RECOVERY PROJECT and Chahk

I did not try to do a Nandroid this was the image from Team Wins website so I don't think you will have any backup issues like some did with the I9505 image. Goo Manager is always the best option but a .tar comes in handy at times that is the only reason I converted their image.

This is big news, but the lack of replies has me worried. I need more brave souls to flash before me.
BTW, did this trip your counter MJ?
Apologies if I am completely wrong - but does this mean that if I use this recovery my phone will be 100% identical to the official S4GE? I assume that would make a lot more stable and efficient than the current dumbs we have been leaked?
Thanks in advance!

From my understanding this is just a TWRP recovery. It's not something that will make your phone a stock S4GE because this is a custom recovery. It's a custom recovery for the S4GE GT-I9505G.

Odin is easier for most Windows users because of its GUI, using standard USB drivers, and not having to mess around with Command Prompt.

If there is no difference between that .img and the one downloaded from goo.manager, Its freezing under advanced settings. Cant restore defaults. It froze on me trying to do a back up. Im sure there are several other issues as I have not had a chance to review the thread in general section yet, but just a few results from my own experience.
EDIT: I stand corrected, I thought I was getting freezes, I let it sit and it finally completed.

Like I mention in every one of these threads, Status 7 is, at least 99% of the time, a bad download. Redownload and verify the MD5 checksum.
The MD5 for the official nightly is "513639551c586888db38bc9b17c7dab2". Use this program to verify the MD5 checksum.

4.4 needs the latest CWM to install. Try using Philz Touch Recovery or install the latest img from the Clockwork website.
I don't know if any of you guys solved your issues but you need to download cm11 onto external SD card then download philz touch version of cwm also on ESD card. Flash philz touch in your already existing cwm whatever version that may be. I forgot if it will boot back into recovery automatically but get back into recovery. If you are soft bricked get back in recovery by holding the power and vol up button I think and just flash rom as normal wipe data/cache/dalvik etc. That's how fixed my status 7 and flashed OSE 4.4.2 and loving it. Hope I helped.

You can still weekly update with TWRP. I've been doing it since I got the phone 2-3 weeks ago. It just launches the updater script in TWRP and installs fine
Ok.. Nice! I've just read that TWRP would break the updates. I'll try when the next one comes. Thanks☺

I stand corrected. This week's update didn't work for me. I checked my downloaded_rom folder and it seemed to be downloading entire ROMs the past two weeks, except this week it was just the patch. With. The entire rom download, it installed but with this week's update only it did not install.
Mine did not update as well.. Just froze at the MI logo.. Tried twice.

TWRP does break the updates and even after restoring stock recovery it still won't do it just download the full rom and dirty flash it through TWRP. If you still need stock recovery here's my backup. https://mega.co.nz/#!KFckQTBR!r3zUx_6OoKiusgPWRSBYhltvHP48RLfhuSnZ59wXF2k
I have made the backup using Flashify so you will need to install Flashify and place the file inside Android/data/com.cgollner.flashify/files/flashify-backup/recovery

Yup you can switch between them as much as you like.
What is the need of TWRP on a Miui device like a Note Pro?

If you revert to stock recovery it should work... Use the recovery from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-note-pro/development/recovery-stock-recovery-t3157942

Thanks Kahun, but you mentioned earlier it won't work. Anyway I backup the stock recovery using flashify when I flashed the TWRP, so I will use that and try again

Yeah it didn't work for a while but it randomly started working again and I havent had any problems since.
Yea I tried that, then realized how much I used TWRP and reverted back after 2 hours.
I only use twrp when I need it so I connect it to my PC and use fastboot boot TWRP.img
