Need Twrp Latest Version 2.8.7 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all users and devs. Can you give me link or topic if it is made for TWRP 2.8.7 for our old GT-I9300(international)? Because on TWRP website I couldn't find it. Maybe someone tried to make a flashable .zip or .tar file to have latest version of TWRP.

I know it is quite hard to find, as i9300 has currently no maintainer AFAIK and in the thread title stands 2.8.6.0, but there is a user build
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61481355&postcount=1034
for future builds try to search in the linked thread.

[Q] Rooting Android 4.1.2

Would just like to confirm before i proceed as i do not want to brick my phone.
Since I'm running i9300 stock android 4.1.2, is it safe to root using the method found here?
Since recovery won't be installed, i am unable to find an odin flashable cwm 6.0.4.x which is required for kitkat roms.
There is twrp 2.6.3.0 here, but i'm unfamiliar with it and the version needed to flash kitkat roms.
Any help would be appreciated as search/stickies did not help.

thank you for the reply
tbh i prefer twrp but will use cwm if twrp does not support kitkat flashing.
have tried philz but did not like it...would use it only if cwm and twrp aren't available.

search in the twrp thread with the keyword "cm11" and you'll find the answer:
in short you do not need the version in the op but from the main website and in the thread is a link to it. but better look yourself
if you are unsure ask in the thread, which roms are flashable through twrp and which one causes problems

For anyone interested:
Yes you can use cf auto root in the op link to root jb 4.1.2
For Recovery:
CWM: You have to flash via odin cwm 6.0.3.2 then install the 6.0.4.4 zip via recovery
TWRP: odin flashable twrp 2.6.3.1(required for kitkat) is available on the twrp website.
Philz: odin flashable zip can be found in this thread. Not sure about kitkat compatibility tho.

latest cwm update

When I first bought the nook tablet I rooted it and put CM7 on there. Everything has been fine and it works as expected but I want to upgrade to CM11 and it requires a higher version of clockworkmod. Everywhere I've looked are just guides and downloads for installing cwm from scratch. Does any one have a link or can point me to where I can get a zip file that can be flashed by an older version of cwm to update it to the new one?
You can find a flashable zip for Chris Hoffman's CWM 6.0.4.5+ at https://www.mediafire.com/folder/xjwc1a482a6ll/Nook_Tablet.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670589 for info/pointers on how to update to CM11 from an older version of CM.

For future, remember please that questions do not belong here, there is a dedicated QA section.
Download the latest version, 2.8.5.0 directly from TWRP portal (no interface needed) and either flash it with Odin (tar) or download the zip version and flash it from recovery...or you can install TWRP Manager (ROOT) from Play store and install it using the app.

[Q] [CM12.1] Downgrade from CM13.1 - HELP -

Hi everyone. I was read a lot off discussions about i9100 with CM12.1 but I still don't know how to do it without some problems.
My phone actually running CM13.1 latest nightly build with Team Win TWRP recovery v 2.8.XXX and maybe DorimanX kernel? I don't know how to find Kernel name and version... I would like to ask you how to go to Cm12.1 build with pico or nano GAPPS (And what build I should download). I need the most stable build for daily use. Next how to replace CM recovery with TWRP 3.0.2. . I am totally confused. I'll be glad for any help.
Oh. I have that problem too. CM 13.1 not stable!

Firstly look under settings -> about device and it will tell you the kernel version. If it says 3.0.101-CM------, you have the stock CM13 kernel. You said you have TWRP 2.8.x.x and not CM recovery?? This means you already have the isorec recovery enabled. All you need to do is flash the 3.0.2-1 .img from this recovery and you will have the newer one installed. And just do normal backup/wipes and install CM12.1 as you would any other rom. Just remember to use 5.1 gapps(arm;5.1;pico/nano)
Here is the last official CM12.1 I uploaded
Here is a more up to date unofficial CM12.1

Yes I have stock cm13 kernel and TWRP flashed. Can I flash new TWRP via Odin?
Thank you very much!

I don't think you can flash a .img file with odin. Honestly if you want to downgrade to 5.1.1 it would be easier to do it in one go.
Flash CM12.1, gapps, then TWRP 3.0.2-1.img all from TWRP 2.8

Ohh I thought that TWRP can't flash img file.
Thanks for advice. I try it today.
So I try that and almost everything works fine. Only GPS fixing seems like a little bit problematic. But I don't know my testing was short. I will see.
May I ask a supplementary question - I am in a similar position, I have an i9100 which I upgraded from stock 4.1.2 Jelly Bean to CM13 following (most of) djibe's guide here
So I now have CM13 ROM with kernel version 3.0.101, re-partitioned with Lanchons repit, and with recovery TWRP 3.1.0 installed and functioning.
I want to revert from CM13 to CM12.1. From above, I believe that I can simply backup, wipe, then flash the CM12.1 ROM (I'll be using the last nightly, cm-12.1-20160203-NIGHTLY-i9100.zip) - is that correct?
My question/confusion is, do I also need to flash an isorec-compatible kernel (ie kernel-Lanchon-TRIM-IsoRec-20160111-cm-12.1-i9100.zip)? The isorec thread (here) says that the "Official CyanogenMod 12.1 and 13 kernels are now IsoRec-compatible", so it seems to me unnecessary, but many threads/guides on XDA say to flash one of Lanchon's kernels.
Please could someone advise, and my apologies for what is probably an ignorant question.

You are correct. Isorec support was implemented before that last nightly iirc. No need to flash any kernels.
Note: Only use the official TWRP 3.1 from the TWRP website or the.gangster's one which is basically the same. They are compatible with the earlier android versions.
Hi Noppy,
Thanks very much for taking the time to reply and help - I am using "the gangsters" TWRP 3.1 from djibe's thread, appreciate the heads up. I can confirm that I flashed CM12.1, and it works fine!

Bootloader changed, what about stock recovery?

Hello there,
after all the fuss about the new bootloader, has OnePlus updated the stock recovery?
Regardless of the answer, where i can download the latest one? In many thread i read from the OnePlus Official Download page but i can only see flashable .zip of the system partition.
Furthermore, has anyone a list of the changes done on the stock recovery?
thank you for the help
EDIT: i flashed the recovery from Oxygen 2.x and it's not booting, so i guess it has benn updated... Where i can find it?
EDIT 2: nvm found http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/OPX_MM_recovery.img
