[RECOVERY][OFFICIAL][kagura] TWRP 3.1.1-0 touch recovery [2016-10-08]

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

CHANGELOG for 3.0.2-0:
-Fix a bug with the input box that affected masked inputs (passwords). This fixes decrypt of full device encryption on devices that support decrypt. This bug also impacts encrypted backups. Users are highly encouraged to stop using 3.0.1 if you use encrypted backups or if you need decrypt of data in TWRP.
-Add Greek translation to some builds.
Note: As always, be sure your custom theme is up to date (or remove your custom theme) before updating TWRP.
System read only option: Devices that ship with 5.0 and higher as their initial OS are using block level OTA updates. With this style of OTA update, the update script checks to see if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. Further, the script also usually runs an SHA sum of the entire system partition to detect if any changes have been made. If any changes have been made, the OTA update will refuse to install. Since not all OEMs and devices have factory images available, we have created a new feature in TWRP that detects if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. If not, you will be prompted asking if you want TWRP to mount system as read/write. If you choose not to allow TWRP to mount as read/write, TWRP won’t prompt to install SuperSU and TWRP won’t try to patch the stock ROM to prevent TWRP from being replaced by stock recovery. The goal of this option is to hopefully allow the user to make a raw system image backup that they can use to get back to a state where they can take OTA updates again.
resize2fs feature: On some devices like the Nexus 6, the factory images include a userdata image that is the proper size only for the 32GB units. If you flash the factory image to a 64GB Nexus 6, the data partition will appear as if it only has the free space of a 32GB device. Using the resize2fs option, TWRP can resize your data partition to take up the full space available. The resize2fs may also be useful to resize system partitions on devices where custom ROM system images don’t take up the full partition space. Lastly, resize2fs may be useful in some cases to reserve the proper space at the end of a data partition for a full disk encryption key, should your partition be formatted incorrectly for some reason.
This new version also marks our first set of full builds using our new jenkins build server. You can track the progress of builds at https://jenkins.twrp.me and we have taken additional steps to make it easier for device maintainers to step up and submit patches to our gerrit server at https://gerrit.twrp.me to help us keep devices up to date and working.
DOWNLOAD:

Now it's official!

Make a material version?
Sent from my F8332 using Tapatalk

Can someone post a detailed instruction please? I followed the TWRP instructions but kept getting stuck on "waiting for devices" on fastboot. I tried several different drivers suggested in other threads but none worked for me

@AndroPlus Do we need an unlocked bootloader for this?

Yes we do.

@AndroPlus, please maybe you can give some hint. I unlocked the bootloader (worked), when I installed TWRP with fastboot and the installation seemed to be sucessful, but I cant boot into TWRP. During boot I'm pressing vol+, but nothing happens. Even the LED shows no light during boot. What I did wrong or what can I do to boot into TWRP?
edit: problem solved I installed your kernel with: sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img
and now I can boot into TWRP and LED during boot shows light. Seems to be a really great kernel.

1. Turn your device off.
2. At the same time, press the Power button and Volume down until your device vibrates.
3. Quickly release the Power button, but keep pressing Volume down (5 sec or more).

@AndroPlus will that work with the dual Sim version F8332 also?

yes

Thanks a lot for your great amazing efforts @AndroPlus, is there any need to unlock the bootloader prior to rooting or flashing TWRP? And if yes, is it simply booting into fastboot and running the command "fastboot oem unlock" or enabling it from the Developer Options?

Click to collapse
You have to enable oem unlock in developer options and run "fastboot oem unlock", then flash my custom kernel.
Because of strict security, we have to edit kernel to disable sony_ric and dm-verity to root if you want to custom /system.
If you can use system-less SuperSU you don't need to flash custom kernel.

Restore bug?
I just restored my backup and IMEI was gone. So the backup as such works fine besides the IMEI. Consequently I couldn't connect to the mobile network. I had to flashtool the original rom and restart the whole process.
Anyone else experienced such a problem?

I've repacked the 250 stock kernel with everything (except twrp, indeed). I use your recovery, and it works fine so far. But from system, I can't boot into twrp directly (e. g. from Titanium Backup or NeoPowerMenu).
For any help thanks in advance!

Hi, I flashed the twrp.img, but when I tried wipe or install rom to xperia XZ, I got can't unmount system, 'device or resource busy' error. Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks

Yes, indeed.

No boot in recovery
Problem: Unlock done and OK, flashed TWRP and OK. But I cannot boot in TWRP. Not with buttons, not with adb. I see only the message, that my device is unlocked.... The LED ist dark.
Today I flashed the kernel v4 and Ok, flashed TWRP again and ok, same result. No boot in recovery. Only the f***in message that my device is unlocked, Firmware is..... . 260 and a German xz single Sim.
Any Idea? Sorry for my poor English.

Flashed, no problem...excellent development, thank you!

There's no direct button for it within RW Recovery, but it has adb working, so once you're started up in Red Wolf Recovery, just plug into the computer and send it "adb reboot edl" from a terminal. I just tested it and it worked fine.
I'm assuming you have a functional installation of android sdk or platform tools and working USB drivers on a capable computer, otherwise what exactly did you plan on doing with EDL mode anyway?

... I"m sorry, I don't know what else to say, other than either you're wrong or there must be something wrong with your computer/phone configuration. I literally just started up in the latest red wolf recovery, connected via USB cable to my computer (Windows 10 laptop), opened an administrative command prompt on the computer, cd to directory I unzipped platform tools to, typed "adb reboot edl", and the phone rebooted into emergency download mode, and ran QFIL, which sees a 9008 mode device ready for flash.
However I did also test from within the recovery itself... going to terminal inside RW recovery and typing "reboot download" did not work, it just restarted normally. That is true. But again, it's not an issue since you have the computer & USB cable there (or else you wouldn't need EDL mode) and can just send the adb command from the computer.

I only reported that is impossible to run edl mode from system by ADB and from twrp by download button .

firstly we need a TWRP with decrypt possible for us to disable encryption
and also the ability to edit the fstab in /vendor partition (/vendor/etc/ there are 2 fstab files we need to edit and remove force encrypt to encryptable)
i have tried this with official twrp and didnt work
i cant seem to mount /vendor as R/W in OS or TWRP my changes dont stick for some reason.

@pranavasri
Thank you for sharing.
I'm gonna give it a try!

firstly we need a TWRP with decrypt possible for us to disable encryption
and also the ability to edit the fstab in /vendor partition (/vendor/etc/ there are 2 fstab files we need to edit and remove force encrypt to encryptable)
i have tried this with official twrp and didnt work
i cant seem to mount /vendor as R/W in OS or TWRP my changes dont stick for some reason.

So TB-8504F has a touchscreen issue where you need to sleep and wakeup recovery after it boots for touch to work. Like what @ZONTAC mentioned earlier. I was able to fix it on TWRP 3.6.2 that I built for testing. I would imagine it would work for PBRP as well. It does not affect TB-8504X which is why its not commonly seen. The F variant is not as popular. I have not tested it on 8504X mind you but I don't think that flag will be needed by it.

This flag kills the Himax touch until you lock and unlock on TB-8504F but strangely does not affect TB-8504X

Your recovery advertises that it supports both variants. That patch will fix the issue on TB-8504F, it should not change anything on TB-8504X but I don't have that version to confirm.

If you have build so i can test it on my tab(8504x)

Do You have any idea?
Freshly flashed stock, there everything works, but I cannot flash any ROM - tried both crDroid, RR and Ubuntu. Always same error.
Strange is it mounts system at first... And after formatting it can be mounted again, but than I got error, cos no image is there to be patched, I believe?

Follow proper processor
In your case :- if you are coming from stock , 1. mount system in stock recovery
2.flash pbrp/twrp
3. do factory wipe(or reset)
4. do advance wipe in which wipe system, cache, delvick ,data
5.after that flash system
6. Still having problem try d/f twrp or contact rom dev

Did a test boot without flashing. System starts but hangs on many tasks, even restarting to other modes hangs the system. My device reports as tb_8504x. I had problem with flashing through TWRP so I wanted to try PBRB.

Hello, I got PBRP to boot into recovery, I have OEM bootloader unlocked and USB debugging enabled. I'm trying to completely format the tablet to install LineageOS 18. When I wipe the process gets stuck on "Formatting system using mke2fs". It's been on it for about an hour now. Is that normal? The device is responsive. I can hold the power button down and get reboot options. I can force a reboot and get back into the recovery and try again but each time it gets halted at the format stage. What should I do?

Note1: You need a custom permissive kernel to boot with R/W vendor.
Note2: If you got bootloop on Samsung logo, reboot to TWRP and wipe metadata from Advanced Wipe section

You have no idea how excited I got when I saw this. I'm going to try this first thing tomorrow and post my results! One question though; When you said "You need a custom permissive kernel to boot with R/W vendor.", is that the one that you've linked in the initial post?

Yes its.
Also if anyone have the regular Tab S8 send me recovery.img here or on telegram

Sure, this is for X700XXU1AVCD/X700OXM1AVCD/X700XXU1AVCD (Tab S8 Wi-Fi Middle East).
I used this to root but it may be corrupt so you might wanna check.

Hello ,
Is it possible with this twrp version to use the sd card also ? Thank you for your answer .

I see magisk v25 change log mentions
Fix vb meta extraction implementation.
So does that mean magisk v25 will disable vb meta automatically now?

I belive so. IIRC, if you've rooted your tablet by patching the AP file with Magisk and flashed it in Odin, then vbmeta should already be disabled. Magisk, and therefore root, will still persist even after a factory data reset because your device is running Magisk as a system app.

Finally awake. Gonna go ahead and flash TWRP on my Tab S8+ and share my results!

I don't know about magisk becoming a system app I own the tab s6 I'm on one UI 4.1 and have magisk v25 And it doesn't install the system app so I don't know about that. I don't own s8 tablet

Then don't spam every thread with tab s6 topics

I come baring results. I flashed TWRP and vbmeta in Odin as described in the initial post, and it booted into TWRP! However, the good news ends there. The touch screen doesn't seem to work when in TWRP, and interestingly, when I have the keyboard attachment on, the install button darkens as if I'm pressing it no matter what I do on the trackpad. I've tried rebooting the tablet by holding pow + vol- but all it does is reboot once and then put me back in TWRP. I can use ADB to go into download mode, but I can't boot back to Android. Looks like I'm gonna need to flash my patched firmware and try again when this gets fixed. For context, I flashed the gts8p TWRP tar because I have a Tab S8+, but the WIFI only variant (X800), which is in the supported versions list, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
