TWRP 2.8.7.0 for LG G3
D850 / D851 / D852 / D855 / LS990 / VS985
Team Win Recovery Project 2.x, or twrp2 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 2.8.7.0:
-Initial ground work for software drawn keyboard (_that)
-Fix handling of wiping internal storage on datamedia devices (xuefer)
-Allow DataManager to set and read values from the system properties (xuefer)
-Fix crash when taking screenshots on arm64 devices (xuefer)
-Fix error message after an ORS script completes (Dees_Troy)
-Fix crashes / error when creating encrypted backups (_that, Dees_Troy)
-Add system read only option – more details below (Dees_Troy)
-Add resize2fs and GUI option to run resize2fs (Dees_Troy)
-Fix crash loop caused by empty lines in AOSP recovery command file (_that)
-Prevent duplicate page overlays such as multiple lock screens (mdmower)
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.

Adding the modem backup is very simple, just edit the fstab file in the ramdisk.
Skin1980, any chance you could do this please, I'm sure it would be appreciated by many users

Thanks alot for this! I just decompiled your recovery image (.img) and repacked it and flashed via flashify but it failed! Is there some type of signing that needs to be done?
I'm only trying to replace curtain.jpg with the attached image
i can't change button vibration.
settings > vibration duration > button vibration is set to 80 and i cant change it to 0

I think you need to rebump the recompiled recovery img...
@777jon and everyone interested in this recovery:
Latest release (12-09) doesn't boot, phone seem to be bootlooping in the recovery... had to roll back to 12-09 and everything works fine again.
EDIT: I'm on a D855 and I refer to that release.
EDIT2: Maybe a problem with my settings...
New release 10 Dec lost modem backup/restore support. D855
TWRP run greate and my Backup is okay with efs md5 and efs.img...
When install the theme from 2.8.0.0 gives Recovery Loop....
Say me..
Give theme for TWRP 2.8.2.0 ???

Flashify method works perfectly, no issues.
is it normal to get a "(bootloader) Variable not supported" message?
edit: trying to get into twrp it says 'no command' with a dead android
oh I seem to recall that I have to use mfastboot (Motorola's modified version of fastboot)?
edit: yep, using mfastboot worked! (I got the file here if anyone needs it)

Happens when wiping system, too.
Just hangs forever on make_ext4fs, need to reboot to get back to a usable recovery.
Now my /system and /cache can't be mounted or wiped even in fastboot...
Backups don't seem to work right either, considering apparently a backup I made under this TWRP build just disappeared...

"Backups don't seem to work right either, considering apparently a backup I made under this TWRP build just disappeared..."
It seems that nobody here reads something warns that make backup of everything.
I builded this using Marshmallow branch for Moto X and it maybe cause to the disappearance of their contents in SD, and created in folder called 0 or legacy, I warned in OP, now I maded Test's about all, Creating backups, restoring backups, wiping partitions etc and everything works fine
EDIT:
If anyone have problems with System go to mount's and mount system partition.
In next release I add Forced Not unmount System.
cheers
I did actually read, and I did have backups of my backups, for what it's worth. I was well aware that it may be unstable.
I was just trying to let you know what happened.
I'd get a log, if I could, but seeing as I have to restart the phone and I can't get adb to work in recovery, I can't help in those regards.
gran trabajo,
congratulations

WARNING: This is our first release in a long time. We have a lot of new and somewhat aggressive changes in this new release. The changes to the graphics back-end may cause some devices to not boot up properly or have other display-related issues. If you are not in a position to reflash an older build of TWRP, then wait until you are or at least wait until others have tried the new version for your specific device. You don’t want to end up with a non-working recovery and have to wait several hours or days to get to a computer to be able to fix it.
Notes for themers: In addition to the udpated theme, we have introduced a theme version variable to the TWRP theme system. If the theme version does not match the version that TWRP expects, TWRP will reject the custom theme and load its stock theme. This change will ensure that people who update TWRP without updating their theme will still have a workable recovery. We have removed libjpeg support. The stock theme was only using a jpeg image for the splash / curtain. This change means that any custom themes will no longer be able to use jpeg images. It also means that tools used to repack recovery images with a different curtain / splash will need to be updated to use the new method.
Version number notes: For a while we’ve been using a 4 digit version number and reserved the 4th digit for device-specific updates. For instance, we find and fix a device-specific issue like decryption of data on Nexus 5, we would release that as a 2.8.7.1. After a while, some people would start asking where 2.8.7.1 was for other devices. So, going forward we have decided to change the numbering scheme to 3.0.0-2, etc. Our hope is that this version numbering scheme will more clearly identify that the 4th digit does not indicate a version change for the code base.
We need your help! The bulk of TWRP work is done by 3 people on a volunteer basis. We have pushed most of our device files to our github and we have a gerrit instance. If you have the ability, please help us maintain our official devices and/or add your device to our official device list. Thanks in advance!
CHANGELOG for 2.8.7.0:
-Initial ground work for software drawn keyboard (_that)
-Fix handling of wiping internal storage on datamedia devices (xuefer)
-Allow DataManager to set and read values from the system properties (xuefer)
-Fix crash when taking screenshots on arm64 devices (xuefer)
-Fix error message after an ORS script completes (Dees_Troy)
-Fix crashes / error when creating encrypted backups (_that, Dees_Troy)
-Add system read only option – more details below (Dees_Troy)
-Add resize2fs and GUI option to run resize2fs (Dees_Troy)
-Fix crash loop caused by empty lines in AOSP recovery command file (_that)
-Prevent duplicate page overlays such as multiple lock screens (mdmower)
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.

How to use F2FS
Download TWRP from the link above
Grab a rom that supports F2FS
Back up any important data as this will wipe your entire internal storage
Boot into the bootloader and flash the recovery
Boot into TWRP and go into Wipe > Advanced Wipe
Select Data and then hit "Change or Repair File System"
Hit Change File System
Choose F2FS and slide to confirm
Repeat the previous three steps for cache partition
Reboot and move all of your files back over (if restoring through TWRP, make sure to check the option to use rm -rf instead of formatting)
If you have any issues with this, feel free to ask me.
NOTE:
Xiaomi added dm-verity check on Bootloader. You will be need to disable it for modifying system. You can do it simply via adb.
Connect phone with adb (you need to execute this command with root)
Code:
adb root
Code:
adb disable-verity
That's it
Enjoy
Nice, great work Anik!

Thank you! I will flash this once I have unlocked my BL.
@Anik_khan can i execute flash the root only via adb? Or any method how to root dev rom locked bootloader?
After flashing (which went pretty smooth)....the recovery page only shows a mobile screen with usb plugged in, no stock or twrp!!! am I doing something wrong here?

I too have that problem. Could it be that I went back to the latest rom available (V7.2.4.0.LHP) ?
I unlocked the bootloader from dev rom.
Switched back to V7.2.4.0.LHP, but checked for bootloader : still unlocked.
Then i proceeded to fastboot flash the recovery, everything went fine with the regular fastboot message confirming transfert and write, but when I reboot into recovery mode, it shows the Xiaomi recovery picture like @raad.sobhan described.
I'll try in few minutes with dev rom to see if it changes anything.
Ok so, I tried with dev rom miui_HM3_6.3.17 and same result.
Here's a pic of the recovery once the following commands were issued:
Code:
X:\XX\XX>fastboot flash recovery TWRP_3.0.0-0-ido.img
target reported max download size of 268435456 bytes
sending 'recovery' (13496 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.438s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.500s]
finished. total time: 0.938s
X:\XX\XX>fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.000s
@Anik_khan, if there's any logs I could grab to sort the problem out, let me know.
you need
fastboot.exe flash recovery TWRP_3.0.0-0-ido.img
and then
fastboot.exe boot TWRP_3.0.0-0-ido.img
the first boot from file actually make this recovery flash permanent
Oh thanks ! I feel dumb for not trying to boot directly the img file.

Oh I didn't realise that but it makes sense.
However when I use adb root under android, I have "adbd cannot run as root in production builds". Do I need a modified boot.img for that or am I missing something ?

Installation instructions
NOTE: Read the FAQ from Post #2 to ensure that you're installing the correct version of TWRP!!
Fastboot Install Method:
You will need the platform-tools from the Android SDK on your computer. Find the Android command line tools section on the page linked and install the SDK tools package. From the SDK Manager, download only the platform-tools to get adb and fastboot binaries.
Windows users will need proper drivers installed on their computer. You can try the Naked ADB drivers or the Universal ADB drivers if you don't already have a working driver installed
On your device, go into Settings -> About and find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable developer settings. Press back and go into Developer Options and enable USB debugging. From your computer, open a command prompt and type:
Code:
adb reboot download
You should now be in fastboot mode.
Download the correct image file and copy the file into the same folder as your adb and fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.img and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Code:
fastboot reboot
Alternate Installation Method (requires prior TWRP installation):
TWRP Image Install method:
Most devices can be updated quickly and easily within TWRP if you already have version 2.8.4.0 or higher installed.
Download the latest version of TWRP appropriate for your device/firmware
Reboot to TWRP
Hit Install and tap the "Install Image" button in the lower right
Browse to the location of the TWRP image on your device and select it

[LIST]WARNING: This is our first release in a long time. We have a lot of new and somewhat aggressive changes in this new release. The changes to the graphics back-end may cause some devices to not boot up properly or have other display-related issues.

The stock theme was only using a jpeg image for the splash / curtain. This change means that any custom themes will no longer be able to use jpeg images. It also means that tools used to repack recovery images with a different curtain / splash will need to be updated to use the new method.

Bug Reporting
If you have an issue, the first step is to post a recovery log so we can determine the cause of the issue. This is done in recovery using Advanced -> Copy Log, or adb pull /tmp/recovery.log. Once a log is uploaded we can determine how best to proceed. NOTE: Posts that are reporting bugs or issues without an accompanying recovery log will be ignored! Additionally, providing details about your device setup, including variant, firmware version, and exact steps to reproduce your issue will also be helpful in diagnosing the problem.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Why is this device different than my previous HTC device?
With newer devices, HTC has moved to a block-based OTA system. This means that even mounting system as read-write (as TWRP typically does during startup checks) will nullify the device's ability to take an OTA. Any other changes to the system partition will also cause an OTA to fail (even if that check is removed from the OTA zip) due to "unexpected contents."
2. Which version of TWRP am I supposed to use?
The best version to use is the latest official (3.2.3-0) from twrp.me.
3. Why is there a "System" backup option and a "System Image" backup option now?
The "System" option is the standard tar backup. "System Image" is a dd backup of the entire system block device (/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system). The "System Image" option is only relevant if your system is unmodified. This allows you to make a fully stock backup that can be restored later to take an OTA.
NOTE: You only need to choose ONE of these options when making a backup!!
[*]NOTE 2: If you are using a FAT32-formatted card, a "System Image" backup may fail, due to the 4GB file limit on that format. For a successful System Image backup, internal storage or NTFS/exFAT-formatted external storage must be used (either SD card or USB-OTG)
4. How am I supposed to root?
Since this device has dm-verity enabled and forces encryption by default, root can only be achieved using a "systemless" root method. Magisk is the recommended root solution, as it is actively developed and up-to-date. It also allows devices to pass Google's SafetyNet API for working contactless payments. See the below thread for full details.
Magisk
5. How do I backup stock recovery prior to flashing TWRP?
You can't. The "fastboot boot" command appears to be disabled/broken on this device's ABOOT, so TWRP must be fastboot flashed over stock recovery. You can however, extract the stock recovery.img from the OTA firmware.zip when it's received and use that to install the OTA.
An alternate method to obtain a stock recovery is listed below, but it requires 2 devices (either owned by you, or help from someone else in the forum):
Someone fastboot flash twrp and immediately make a backup of boot and upload it to XDA.
Once the above is available, someone else download that boot.img to their device, and fastboot flash twrp to the BOOT partition of their device.
Once the above is done, reboot the device, which will bring up TWRP, and then backup stock RECOVERY in TWRP, and upload to XDA.
Then, from within TWRP, use the Image install feature in TWRP to flash the stock boot.img.
6. How do I restore stock system so that I can accept an OTA?
Check the "Mount system as read-only" box in the Mount menu.
Restore stock "System Image" backup (This will only work if you've made a System Image backup prior to making any modifications to /system).
Fastboot flash stock recovery (fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img)
NOTE: It is also possible to restore stock recovery via the TWRP GUI. Rename the stock recovery file to "recovery.emmc.win" and place in the backup folder with the stock system image. Recovery will then show as a restore option. MAKE SURE YOU REALLY WANT TO DO THIS, AS TWRP WILL BE GONE WHEN YOU REBOOT OUT OF RECOVERY!!
[*]NOTE 2: It is possible to install an OTA without using stock recovery (i.e. installing it with TWRP). TWRP will not flash the firmware.zip included in an OTA file. Please see here for a detailed description of the process.
Reboot to system, install OTA.
7. What if I have an RUU? Do I need to worry about all this OTA nonsense?
Not if you don't care about losing all your data. If you're S-ON and have an RUU available for your exact variant (model ID and CID must match) and software number (main version must be the same or newer), then you can get back to a fully stock state by relocking (fastboot oem lock) and flashing an RUU. However, if you'd prefer to take an OTA to keep your data intact, the method stated above is how to do so. Or, you can just run a custom ROM and wait for your ROM chef to update their ROM to the latest software (though you'll still have to find a way to update your firmware if you're not S-OFF)
8. After I go through all this and successfully apply an OTA, how do I make sure I have a clean starting point again?
After the OTA is applied and TWRP is flashed, it will once again detect an untouched system, which will mount system read-only and allow you to make a fully stock backup and start the process over again, this time with the new base.
9. After I restored my Data backup and boot back to Android, I'm entering the correct PIN/password, but it's telling me the password is wrong. What happened, and how do I fix it?
It appears that sometimes after restoring a backup of Data where security was enabled (such as a PIN or password lock), the device does not recognize the correct password. There are two ways to avoid this issue:
Disable security in Android before making a backup of data.
After restoring Data, while still in TWRP, use the TWRP File Manager to navigate to /data/system and delete all the locksettings.* files (such as locksettings.db, etc). When you reboot, the password will be gone.
Thanks it works

Can someone test whether this TWRP build boots?
«link removed»
That's from the official TWRP Jenkins. It won't decrypt currently, but I really just want to confirm it boots. Thanks!
EDIT: @nenebear confirmed. Official support should *hopefully* be coming soon!

So combine this with Magisk and Supersu and you're good for root?

If you just want root, you don't need Magisk. SuperSU roots just fine without Magisk, and Magisk has its own root now, which allows you to pass SafetyNet checks and use Android Pay. The combination you speak of doesn't allow that.

Good shout, cheers for the heads up.
It can boot up, but it has lot of issues.
The adb not works.
The terminal also not works.
The file manager very limited.
External SD not works.
Reboot to recovery also broken.

Yeah, the OP that says if you have a bug to report, how to do it...I don't see a log anywhere. Did I miss it?
Again, that recovery was tested and confirmed to be fully working. Perhaps you have a different variant or some other variable, but without a log, it's just speculation.

Advanced -> Copy Log, like it says in the OP, perhaps? You said SD card wasn't working but I assume internal storage does. Also, when you boot into system, the log should exist at /cache/recovery/last_log (if you're rooted).

Official TWRP App
Mar 11, 2017
Official TWRP App
The official TWRP app is the first and only first-party app developed by Team Win for TWRP. Please bear with us as we work to fix any bugs and build out the features. The initial version of the app does not support flashing on the Pixel due to the Pixel's A/B partition layout. In addition, the app may not support finding and flashing images from external storage locations. We are working hard to improve these items and bring you more new features.
Download Links:
We recommend downloading the app from the Play Store.
If you do not have Play Store access, you may download the Official TWRP App here: https://dl.twrp.me/twrpapp/
How do I use the app?
When you first open the app, you will be greeted by a few options. First, you will need to agree not to hold us responsible for anything that happens to your device while using the app. You may also grant the app root permissions. The app will work without root, but some functionality like image flashing will be disabled. Lastly, you can opt into enabling InsightCore (more on this feature later).
Once you have passed this initial screen, you will be greeted with the app home screen where you can choose TWRP FLASH or NETWORK STATISTICS (more on the network statistics later). On the TWRP FLASH screen you will need to select a device. Once you have selected a device, the app will periodically check for new TWRP versions for the device that you have selected. The default interval is once per day, but you can tap on the settings icon in the upper-right to change the interval or disable the update check entirely.
If you enabled root access, you will see options for selecting an image and buttons for flashing the selected image to boot or recovery. Note that you should flash TWRP images to recovery. The boot image flashing is for flashing full boot images (not just kernel zImages) and should not be used for flashing TWRP.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADB BACKUP:
https://www.droidorigin.com/take-adb-backup-using-twrp-v3-1-0-0/
Update 1/5/2017
TWRP 3.1.0-1 MM build released.
Current status: BETA
Features:
MTP working
ADB working
SEANDROID warning fix
TWRP and Kernel built from latest source
Factory Image flashing(see below)
NTFS support
F2FS support >> To be added
Twrp app support
ADB backup
New feature available in TWRP v3 is system image backup and restore and factory image flashing (see TWRP changelog for details)
Basically this means factory images from the official firmware can now be flashed with TWRP instead of ODIN. I have extended this feature to include BOOT, RECOVERY, SYSTEM, CACHE, HIDDEN and RADIO(MODEM) partitions.
This feature can be found under INSTALL >> INSTALL IMAGE >> select image to flash >> select partition.
NOTE: To flash the modem, first it needs to be renamed to modem.bin.img
You flash this at your own risk. Please ensure you have the stock ROM to hand downloaded from SAMMOBILE in case of problems. This will trip the knox counter.
Instructions:
Flash with ODIN.
Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode.
Uncheck Auto reboot.
Load the respective file below into the AP slot and hit start.
After flashing and ODIN reports PASS immediately reboot to recovery by holding POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN.
As soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding POWER + HOME.
You should now see TWRP recovery.
NOTE: ON SOME ANDROID 5.1.1/6.0 DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:
Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
DOWNLOAD:
TWRP: twrp_3.1.0-1_sm-j710fn_29417
To Root:
Flash the latest SuperSU release with TWRP:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133/
To disable forced encryption and mount internal storage:
(Note this MUST be flashed after SuperSU if you intend to root)
1. Boot to Twrp
2. Format Data partition using FORMAT DATA button under Wipe options.
(Note: This will wipe the internal storage)
3. Check DATA is mountable.
4. Install SuperSU (if root is required)
5. Install boot image patch below.
6. Reboot
Boot image patch

Well not being funny but the clue is in the question.
TWRP = not official software.

Well, that says it all. The only reason i wanted to root is substratum. But got to know that it wont work. And after getting nougat, root will not be required for substratum to work.
Do I need to unlock bootloader before flashing twrp or does odin do it itself? If I need to unlock it, how do I do it?
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.

I hadn't noticed that yet, but since you brought it to our attention I went ahead and checked for myself.
I can confirm there is a mount issue for sdcard.
I flashed back to previous TWRP version and sdcard mount is fine.
I'm sure it will get worked out soon.

My file system is ExFat. On your 3.1.0.0 it's simply not letting me mount external storage (micro SD) at all when I got into mount and it shows 0 file size when I try to select storage. As noted the previous TWRP for the H819 has external storage working for me.

That is an odd issue. How are you trying to boot into twrp? have you tried "adb reboot recovery" from your system? I have cross flashed the h918 onto my ls997 using this method and it still boots fine. If you did indeed lose your recovery pm me and ill help you get it going again.

For our specific devices i have noticed that backups and restores are much quicker. For the elsa devices there was still static on boot however @jcadduono did a neat little trick of blanking the screen on boot so it would fix that static. I have added the proper device tree fixes to the kernel twrp uses so that no longer is there. The kernel and device trees are fully updated as of release so its the latest and greatest.

I noticed the backup speed after you replied, it IS noticeably quicker. I've been on AOSP's for a bit but I'll try out stock rom's to check out the boot up. Thanks for the new recovery
