TWRP 2.4 is out - TouchPad General

Hello fellow Touchpad enthusiasts,
I happened to see TWRP has a version 2.4 available to us - http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/tenderloin
I saw it posted in other device forums, but not ours so thought I'd share the news.
About all I can tell you is it installed without any major problems. Nothing else tested other than boot into it and reboot to CM 10. I just moved ver 2.3 and copy/renamed 2.4 into same directory. Only problem encountered was old ver permissions were messed up so had to mess around before I was able to move the old ver. That and I reset permission on new ver to match - forget what I modeled it after - the other recovery uImage since I have them both installed.
As always ymmv.

It would be easier for you to install from goo manager, just tap install openrecoveryscript and your done.

Good idea, thanks dawg

I read about incompatibility problems between TWRP 2.4.3.0 and TouchPad.
But does anybody know what about the new twrp-2.4.4.0-tenderloin?
Please fulfill:
TWRP v.________ and ROM ToolBox
CWM v._________ and GooManager
Edit:
Above is false. You should use ...
... TWRP with GooManager and ...
... CWM with ROM ToolBox!

I will stick with CWM. Seems stable enough, it works as it should, and I don't mind to scroll through using my volume rocker.

I updated to 2.4.4 but haven't tested yet, but lots of people were having issues on the Nexus 4 on 2.4.3.0 and after the update nobody has any problems. I know the touchpad is a different animal but i bet it works now. No way I'm ever going back to cwm. Twrp has the best setup & all the right features.

Everytime I tried to flash a zip for a bug fix (headphone detection glitch, etc) it would fail in TWRP. Every time. So I went back to CWM. Goomanager is completely unreliable in regards to finding rom updates, etc.

Are you using the latest version? Twrp is working perfectly for me.
Update:
I take my message back. I backed up, did a factory reset, restored my backup, & everything is there except it twrp didn't restore my app data nor my system settings data.
Update:
I just flashed shumash's new build with success. So flashing in twrp is now working fine for me. Going to have to investigate why my restore didn't fully work on my previous post.

Is anybody else using the latest Twrp?

New twrp 2.5 out. Haven't tested it out yet. But it looks like they fixed the restore issues.

Nice! Let us know how it goes for you. I had a few issues with 2.4.4 but my last couple backups and restores worked great. Thanks for letting us know!

And it don't work. Its worse. It restored 5 apps out off 250... It booted though. But i also had a cwm backup done right before so its all good.

So did you have 2.4.4 before & if so did you have success with that?

I did and it had the same issue but I was only missing 20 apps or so

[RECOVERY]TWRP v2.4.0.0 [2/1/2013]

No longer supporting TWRP.
Does this build include the charging under recovery, aroma fix? Also, just out of curiosity, why not use 2.4.0.0 alpha as base?

It does support that. Aroma my testers said it work. I was talkin with dees_troy, He said 2.4.0.0 isn't exactly ready yet. So 2.3.3.0 is stable.

You must if you want to use it. That hasn't been tested actually.
Hey Fly,
Thank you again for all of your hard work on this! I have tested every function that I usually use in TWRP and so far so good. No issues with 3 separate backups now, even changing the name. It is especially fast at making backups, only a minute or so. Flashing (even with Aroma) seems to be quick and painless. Add in the Flash Image app and this phone is worth some of my time now. No longer am I stuck getting my flash fix on my other 4 devices. If I had any thanks left you would get them all...but you already did.
Cheers

If I can get other feedback of it not working i'll look into it. I wiped my linux box(my way of building recoveries) clean as can be. Got to rebuild it today. So if I can get other feedback of it not working i'll look into it more. But all the code looks right to make ADB turn on.
Try doing this. I learned this on the Rezound. Go under advanced. ADB Sideload. Go into it and back out of sideload. That usually jump started ADB for me.

Oh, hey, that did the trick! Thanks! Will report back with Aroma status in a bit.
EDIT:
adb will connect automatically sometimes, but sometimes I have to do the sideload trick to get it to connect.
Aroma seems to work perfectly on installer pages without a whole lot of content, but on pages like those found in CODIS with tons of options, it still freezes sometimes. Much more stable, though
Thanks for all your work and dedication!
Just another confirmation that this version of TWRP worked with aroma

past 3 posts showed him having issues with aroma. This version of TWRP set him straight :good:

I was having the same issue last night. But it happened on any type of wipe I tried. So I tried reflashing recovery, still did the same thing. It's odd because I was able to wipe everything before I installed a different ROM yesterday morning.
Edit: Removed the custom theme I was using and all is well. Go figure.

Rom Manager

Currently have TWR recovery I flashed using goomanager but have been hearing bad thing about it. Can I just download Rom Manager from the play store and use it to flash clockwork or do I need to us another way to flash it ? Thanks !
If TWRP works fine for you then who cares what other people say or think about. I only run TWRP and have no issues with it.
Don't just go by what other people say, check out some videos on YouTube of ClockworkMod and see if it's for you. Very recently, an official CWM build appears to have become available so if you want to use that, it should be as simple as downloading ROM Manager and doing recovery setup.
I havent used TWR to flash anything yet just used it to to a backup of my stock rooted rom. Thanks for the replys.

I've ran both on multiple devices and i also prefer twrp. It's laid out nicer. Being able to wipe cache and dalvik in one shot or at least in one menu screen is way more convenient than them being separate options on separate screens.

[Q] cant install RLS 6 Hyperdrive in my s4

when i install RLS 6 hyperdrive my phone starts fine but after one minute it restarts and again turns again on works fine for 30 seconds and again restart help!!!!
When posting something like this its good to know the beforehand so people know what led up to this. Did you wipe? What recovery you using? Did you follow the install instructions word for word?
SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
A couple of possibilities:
Make sure you wipe per the dev's recommendations prior to flashing.
Try installing with minimal mods and see if you can get it to boot. Once you flash, you can always dirty flash the same installer and pick a couple additional mods and see what's causing the issue. Some people noted they were having problems with the Walkman mod causing bootloops.
Check the MD5 of your download against what is in the OP. If you downloaded to PC then copied to SD card, check that the MD5 on the card matches that on the PC and what's online (some people had problems where the file was corrupted during transfer to phone).
Also making sure you have one of the most recent recoveries is a good thing to check. I believe I used TWRP 2.6.0.0 and it worked fine for me.
Finally, try using the stock kernel instead of stock optimized or a third party kernel. I can use stock or stock optimized, for example, but when I flash faux it bootloops about 80% of the time on my phone.
There is a good bit of info about the bootlooping issue on RLS6 in the original Hyperdrive thread. Start on page 472 and read on from there.

Did you flash with twrp or cwm. Theres been a few people reporting bootloops when wiping/flashing with twrp. If so you might want to try cwm. Have been using cwm since the DX was the "it" phone. Got it on 4 devices now and have never had a single problem with it.

One time my uncle was over and I was telling him about a marital concern. He told me that I should probably not do what I had been doing and that there was probably a better way. I listened to him and life has been better. Life is full of choices.

I have also been having difficulty with both bootloops and the phone freezing on the Samsung image and not booting past this point.
I did a full wipe including data with Twrp. After multiple attempts I'm considering switching to CWM. My question is how to I install CWM on a device without a functioning rom?
Does this require flashing back to stock with odin or is there an easier way?

You can flash CWM from within TWRP, just use ADB to copy the zip file onto your phone then flash, or alternatively you can use fastboot to flash a new recovery directly to the phone. Neither method needs a working ROM to accomplish.

Trouble with TWRP 2.7.10

I have a Galaxy S5 from T-Mobile and was using TWRP recovery. I had made a back-up of everything and had to restore using it. After the restore Every app I tried to open had this error "unfortunately (app name) has stopped. This was with every app!!! Is there a setting I am missing? Could it have to do with other back-ups , i.e. Dropbox , Google or Samsung. Do these have to be turned off?
Please help.

Hey Leon, sorry for your problem.
When you made a back up, it was with twrp or titanium backup, or something else?
I had an issue using the backup feature of any custom recovery, so I stick to using titanium backup and having it back everything up to my sd card so if I flash anything and the internal memory is wiped, I still have my data.
Hope you get it figured out Leon.
TWRP 2.7.0.0 makes reliable backups for the S5. There was an update to 2.7.1.0 a few weeks ago (the version number in your thread title is incorrect). The changelog for the current version doesn't appear to suggest any major changes and I don't see any reason to rush into an upgrade. Newer isn't necessarily better and I will wait a while before updating in case any unexpected bugs arise.
Having said that, it's unlikely that there is a problem with TWRP. The TWRP team does great work and bugs are rare. You should read the TWRP threads to see if anyone else is having problems. The existing threads would also be a more effective place to seek assistance. Bugs should be posted to the TWRP github issues log so that they can address them.
.
I have there exact same problem. I was too lazy to report that and then I saw your that. After restoring the backup, none of the apps open. No solution yet.

An easy workaround and a way to identify some alternate causes of your difficulties would be to use version 2.7.0.0 for now since it has been widely reported as reliable.

You posted earlier that you had the exact same problem as the OP. But now it turns out that you're not even using the same version of TWRP as he is.
If you missed that critical detail, it raises the real possibility that you might be using a TWRP build intended for a different device. And that would surely cause just the type of problem that you are having. Ensure that you are using a TWRP or Philz build that is intended for your exact handset.

TWRP crashing...

I'm trying to use TWRP to update to a new cm12 nightly, but every time I select the zip and try to flash it, TWRP crashes and reboots. Is there something I'm missing? It's probably just a noob mistake... For example I only today figured out how to get TWRP to cooperate with encryption and my pattern lock on boot up, hah. I thought it wasn't mounting storage because something was corrupted. Anyways, thanks for any suggestions you can give.

2.8.5.0. But I did some more tinkering today and eventually solved my problem. Here's to help you others who saw the same thing: I tried using progressively older versions of TWRP to see if they're used work, until version 2.8.2.1 I think. At that version, instead of crashing, it gave me an error that my zip file was corrupted. I deleted the zip and downloaded it again, switched back to version 2.8.5.0, and everything worked. (except for the Rom, which had bugs that made it unusable, but at least it flashed successfully and booted lol). Hopefully my experience can help someone else now.
I'm having issues with twrp hopefully I found the right thread. It shows no storage available? I'm trying to flash CM. Thanks
