TWRP 2.6.3 with f2fs support - For unlocked bootloader - Moto X Android Development

TeamWin Recovery Project 2.6.3​
So it took a little finesse but we have working TWRP now with f2fs support and touch working.
Device Tree Source: https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/
Background and geeky ****:
First off we need DTB (Device Tree Binary) for touch support. The X bootloader adds the dtb onto anything flashed to boot partition. So I built recovery and fastboot it to the boot partition. Ooops image is too big. Recompile kernel with xz compression and loose about 3 MB then it flashes to boot partition. Then I just "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/twrp263.img" and voila we have a working flashable recovery.img with DTB appended
OK, so on to what you came for:
Download: http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/MotoX/twrp263.img
Reboot to booloader and:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp263.img
Hope you guys enjoy!
Special thanks to Dees Troy for the source and for implementing my mkfs.f2fs into TWRP.

The normal GSM version can be unlocked through the online moto method, right?

Hey brudda, I just got my Dev Edition through Verizon and I can unlock bootloader through the moto website but was just wondering what steps do I need to take to get TWRP running. Do I unlock bootloader first with the moto website but then how do I obtain root? Right now I have root through JCase's PawnMyMoto exploit. Now do I need to start from scratch and get rid of his exploit so I won't be rooted anymore? Sometimes I think I should just wait until a dev has created a nice boot loader unlock, root and flash custom recovery tool.

You just unlock through moto website and fastboot recovery. It will ask you if you want to root when you reboot, if you're not rooted. Or you can flash the superuser of your vice in recovery. No exploit needed when unlocked.

Ok so, I should get rid of the root I'm on and go to moto and unlock bootloader, then in fastboot go to recovery and from there obtain root. Then finally I can flash TWRP. RIGHT?

You don't have to unroot unless you want to.
1. Go to moto bootloader unlock site follow the steps to unlock bootloader.
2. Fastboot flash recovery twrp263.img
3. Boot into recovery. If you are not rooted it will ask you if you want to root when you exit.

Just wanted to say thanks a bunch for doing this. Finally broke down and unlocked. Fastbooted this and made a backup.

just wanted to say thanks this all worked for me.

thank you for this... worked like a charm

Guys it's been a little while since I've used abd so I just wanna make sure I got this right. After unlocking the bootloader at moto website, I download the twrp image file and put it in the same adb folder where fastboot is (within adb folders), then shift + rt click, open command window and push the twrp image file. It's that correct? No YouTube videos yet, huh?
Thanks in advance!

You do not push the image to your phone, you flash it from your computer.
To boot into bootloader mode (fastboot) you can use adb (adb reboot recovery) or hold the power button and volume down for about 5 seconds.
the fastboot command you must issue is fastboot flash recovery <image_name>.img

You need to make sure the twrp img file is in the same folder that your fastboot.exe is in. Open a command prompt. Using the CD command navigate to that folder. Then use the fastboot command listed replacing the entire "<image_name>" with the file name for the recovery.
Side note - once rooted, for a quick no nonsense method to boot into fastboot / recovery, you can install a simple little app called Quick Boot from the Play store.

[BOOT Image]Insecure Boot Image for Droid Incredible 4G LTE

This is an insecure boot image. It gives you full shell root. I will be uploading a true root package soon.
To use
0) Unlock via HTCDev.com
1) Boot to fastboot
2) Do "fastboot flash boot fireballBOOTINSECURE.img"
3) Original boot.img is attached if you need to revert.

Thanks again Con for all the hard work. Just to update all, I have successfully installed SuperSU using Con's insecure boot and ported TWRP recovery. You can get the flashable SuperSU zip file here on xda (just do simple search).
I have been able to remove so far 130 megs of bloat from this sucker. Also changed lcd density. Basically root access is here!
Big thanks again to Con for the help and efforts to help all of us inc 4g users.
Thank you soooo much for this. Like a dumbass, I had an old HTC One S boot.img that I managed to flash to my DINC4g and you saved me from the brick I created. I am very grateful.

This is shell root. This is something that roms should include, but it is not "root" as you know it.
Did you use a command line when you rebuilt the kernel? I have been trying to make a kernel for AOSP and the boot.img is failing. I'm hoping this is where I am going wrong.

I htcdev unlocked my evo 4g lte bootloader...now what?

So I decided to use htcdev to unlock my bootloader last night for the first time. I am on OTA 1.22.651.3. I know I am not "rooted" and am confused as to if I can actually try any custom ROMs. I read REGAWMOD's post regarding his rooter not working right now...is there another option? Sorry if I missed a post that explains this situation, but I just want to try a custom rom without screwing up my phone.

There's really no reason to manually root if you've already unlocked the bootloader. All you need to do is flash a recovery and then you can flash any ROM, which will already have root access. Here's a good instructional on flashing a recovery:

Thanks premo15 for the info and link.
The funny thing about htcdev was the stuff they make you download and the steps they make you go through to unlock the bootloader. I was thinking they were going to make me hop on one foot while patting my head and belly simultaneously. :laugh:
I read over and over, did some research, tried running cmd and so on.
having no luck
I went through the HTCDev, s-on but bootloader unlocked
I'm running stock 2.13
After unlock you need to flash twrp, you can use fastboot to do so, just download twrp from the teamwin website and put the image file in adb tools or android sdk folder and in the bootloader type fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img

the steps i've taken were similar to the htcdev steps,
finish steps 1-7
after I typed "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" into command prompt and gives me
"error: cannot load 'recovery.img'"
The name has to match, when you download twrp 2.2 the full name is openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img so it would be fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img or you can rename to recovery.img

make sure Fast Boot is NOT selected in Settings/Power. Then turn the phone COMPLETELY OFF and boot to Hboot then fastboot and flash recovery again. Then power off and reboot to hboot. If it says *Tampered* at the top your all set, if it doesn't, then recovery didn't take. I had to flash recovery 6 or 8 times, but I think the deciding factor was when I turned fast boot off in Settings.
Ok. In order to flash a boot.img do we have to rename it to boot.img.zip ? I'm trying to completely understand how to flash the boot.img using HTC dumlock rather than having to use the computer all the time for fast boot.

[Q] cant get into recovery after relocking EVOLTE

Ok So....
I was S-On cause i have 64bit Win7. I was going to return LTE for Upgrade to ONE. So i used this to get back to stock. $250 is too much for me right now to upgrade so i'll be keeping my LTE for a couple more months. At least to see whats up with the Mega. Anyways I went back to reroot but im havent been able to get to recovery. I have all my root files (HTC Dev Unlock token) I can Unlock and relock Boot loader. This is where I'm at... See photo 1.
*** UNLOCKED *** ( I Noticed it no longer says "Tampered" across the top. Does that make a diference?)
S-On
HBoot 2.09
Radio 1.12.11.1119
I used the JB OTA firmware from unlimited.io/jewel.htm
I have tried to reflash TWRP 2.4.1.0 But I can't access Recovery. Second photo shows error icon when rebooting to recovery from Boot Loader. I tried re flashing SU, even stock_EVO4gLTE_recovery.img though i dont think that last one would work cause im now on updated firmware.
Am i just SOL and can no longer access recovery?
Will Dirty Racoon help me get recovery back?. Im just now getting familiar to fastboot. Linux is a bit intimidating.

Put the phone back n bootloader like the 1st pic.
Then select Fastboot
Then connect phone to Pc
Then the Bootloader should show Fastboot USB.
Now open up the folder on your Pc that has Fastboot then open a command Window and type fastboot flash recovery what ever the recovery image name is.

so follow the guide carefully!
<<<<<<I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY KIND OF DAMAGE YOU MAKE OR FOR ANY BRIKED DEVICES!>>>>>>>
Click to expand...

STEP BY STEP GUIDE!
GUIDE 1:: {unlocking the bootloader!}
This is htc amaze 4g unlocking,flashing recoveries and rooting filekit by playboydroid at xda developers.

STEP 2>> go into my filekit select data folder>install htc drivers.
STEP 3>> connect your pc to phone with usb cable then in data folder slect reboot into bootloader when you get into bootloader so use volume keys to navigate and
power key to select,you should be connected with usb cable between your phone and pc you will see written fastboot usb highlited with red if you cannot see
so select fastboot written in the bootloader menu so when you see fastboot usb in red colour, then select token id windows batch file present in data folder of my
FILEKIT so by selecting token id from pc will help you in getting the token so select the token as follows:
When copying the token, start with this line:

EXTRA GUIDE FOR S-ON USERS;FLASH 4EXT RECOVERY:

IS THE BEST RECOVERY AND WELL FEATURED!
TO FLASH 4EXT RECOVERY GO TO: AND FROM THERE DOWNLOAD 4EXT RECOVERY!
THEN YOU WILL GET 4EXT RECOVERY.ZIP SO SEND IT TO YOUR SD CARD THEN BOOT YOUR PHONE INTO BOOTLOADER USE THE
REBOOT INTO BOOTLOADER FILE FROM MY FILEKIT>DATA AFTER THAT NAVIGATE TO RECOVERY AND SELECT
4EXT RECOVERY.ZIP AFTER IT FLASHES SUCESSFULLY REBOOT YOUR SYSTEM OR REBOOT RECOVERY SO THEN
NEW RECOVERY WILL BE SEEN..
ALL GUIDES AND FILES ARE AVAILABILE IN THE ZIP..
EXCEPT 4EXT!
ALTHOUGH I HAD INCLUDED 4EXT RECOVERY IN THE FOLDER BUT IT IS NOT WORKING!
YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE 4EXT RECOVERY UPDATER APP AND YOU CAN FLASH LATEST RECOVERY FROM THAT APP AFTER ROOTING!
4EXT Recovery App
so first download the zip from here
unzip it and use the guides above to proceed! use 7zip or similar

Yes the problem is that you need to flash boot.img from bootloader or for easily flashing roms from recovery ,use 4ext recovery...
Just flash this recovery from an app at play store or xda named 4ext recovery control this will work only if phone is booting or if the phone is not booting so search 4ext recovery.img or .zip on xda and flash it in your current recovery and reboot your recovery...you would now be able to get in new recovery now before flashing roms you need to enable 4ext smart flash,which is available inside tools options in 4ext recovery once you had enabled smart flash start flashing roms and they would boot...but NOTE: when ever you are flashing roms always check that is 4ext smart flash enabled or not ,you need to enable it in order to boot new roms and always make an Nandroid backup...
Happy flashing and don't forget to hit thanks

I have gotten to the point of rooting the phone, however when I install roms from sd card and reboot, the phone gets stuck at the htc logo with the white background. Am I missing something...After i install the super su and reboot, can I just install a rom, or do i need to update the kernel or install an update?
thanks in advance

And please tell me that you're currently on CWM recovery or anyother...
Well CWM recovery is included in the package so hoping you're on custom recovery..
The only solution for your problem is that your phone should be ICS 4.0.3 updated and you should have 4ext recovery with smart flash enabled...
Or other solution is perform S-OFF..which is very hard,because of the wire trick!

Ya the same problem with my htc amaze !
whenever I flashed rom it just stuck at HTC boot logo with white background ...!
but one rom finally works that is viper amaze but in this rom there are some bugs !
for example. Bluetooth is not working, the sound is not working !
These are some bugs which make this rom worst ...
I m soo confused what to do !
And performing s-off is very risky due to wire trick !
Because may be the device get damage ..!
Soo any other help or suggestions ???

I assume that you are on ginger bread with old bootloader,so try CM7 or older roms that might work on your device,for flashing ICS and JB newer roms you will need to be on latest bootloader which you can get after updating your phone to ICS(official)..
if you are having unbranded HTC Amaze Ruby then you need to S-OFF or if you are having Branded i.e T-Mobile or any other just flash the RUU from boot loader....:victory:

ok, so im at a lost, i have used 4ext recovery and used a cyanogen mod and still no luck. I followed your instructions but it still sticks at the htc logo. what is this S-off you are talking about and exactly how risky is it?

Did you enabled smart flash inside tools options in 4ext recovery.?
Just Google s-off,you might find details about it.
And another solution is to try hasoons2000 toolkit for htc amaze and learn how to flash boot.img on bootloader..

did you tried enabling smart flash in recovery?
for s-off visit this.
and for booting a new rom you need to flash boot.img from bootloader.
use this once you enter boot loader and your phone should be connected to pc.see this for more information.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I got through somewhat

Ok, so i extracted the img file and loaded it using the fastboot command, it booted in to Android OS (cm-10-20131006-NIGHTLY-ruby.zip) but it keeps cutting off, I had installed the same rom previously, When loading the boot.img, do i need to extract all the other contents to a folder so it can pull all the files?

1-->Flash rom in recovery with wiping, usually
[wipe data/Factory Reset and Wipe Cache + Dalvik Cache]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2-->boot to Bootloader while connected to PC.[note that the fastboot screen would show fastboot USB written In Red,if not so click the Fastboot Button in bootloader by pressing power button..
3-->now extract the Boot.img of your specific Rom
(which you flashed previosly in recovery..)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4-->use ------>
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
.....
[NOTE: you should open a command propt in the folder where FASTBOOT and BOOT.IMG is present,press SHIFT and then RIGHT CLICK so you would be able to see Open command window here,click it and type the previous command...]

ok, so I did all the above, I also installed an update:
You MUST flash the ICS firmware update when coming from a GINGERBREAD ROM before flashing Viper Amaze
Place the PH85IMG.zip in the root of your
EXTERNAL SDCARD and boot into bootloader
This will update your radio
to 1.15.550L.08D _30.80.550L. 16D
and HBOOT to 1.93.2222
I did the above, installed the Viper Amaze 1.7.2.3 official, and it worked!!!!
thanks again for your help and patient, thank you
