TWRP for Ulefone Gemini Pro - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
trying to track down a TWRP recovery for Ulefone Gemini Pro? I've tried using the Umidigi Pro Z but it won't "stick", i.e. it is installing however it boots back to normal system & reinstalls the stock recovery.
I realise it is a newish phone so a custom recovery may not have been created as yet?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have created a recovery for Ulefone gemini pro. You can try this and see how it goes:
https://mega.nz/#!8f43VYLa!o-elPp74o35tm3AdtcW1wVbFnBHIGi_dUP7skWWGmOM
The problem is that touch is not working. The issue is not with the Recovery image, but the device itself. If I flash the image to boot partition, touch works. I have tried flashing the boot image to recovery partition and it booted to the OS, but touch was not working. So it looks like kernel booting from recovery partition cannot iniialize the touch sensor. Kernel logs also shows that touch sensor failed to initialize. Will create a new thread to discuss this.
You also need a modified boot image for the recovery image not to be re-written. You can use this modified boot image here:

Hi,
thanks for this however neither seem to be working? I installed both, lost touch completely & couldn't boot into recovery? I then had to restart the phone & everything was back to normal.
Looks like more work has to be done in this area however I'm not the one that can do it! Nice try though!

Thanks for trying it out. Actually, if you install the recovery.img to boot partition, touch works. So looks like the device has disabled touch hardware when booting from recovery. I have started a separate thread asking for help

maybe this is kinda obvious for you, but you can use a mouse to use the twrp. took me days to realize this "genius" solution

Hello!!! Is this true? Can you handle TWRP recovery with a mouse ??? I need to do root because I have lost the IMEIs.
Could a non-tactile recovery work like the CWM Recovery from Clockworkmod ???
could a non-tactile recovery work?
Regars from Spain

So we can root only if we have a :
- OTG cable
- A mouse
Can you guys do a instructive tutorial ? Like step by step and just not dropping the files and good luck ?
Because it's just not about me but the others that will come and they want to root their phones too
Ps : i know that i can use adb to flash my images etc .. i'm just not too sure about it , and for now i don't have a OTG cable so any of you have any news why the touch isn't working with twrp ?
Thank you , have a nice day !

Found this on Russian 4PDA forum TWRP 3.1.1 I am not sure if it's touch is working or not as google does not translate it very well.
I do not own this device so I am unable to test it.

Hey man , nice found !
from what google translate translated in french this root work :
AVERTISSEMENT !! Après avoir installé rekaveri, sous réserve deautorisation des changements dans le système,installation obligatoire SuperSU, sinon le système ne démarre pas.
ATTENTION : After you install rekavery ( WTF is that ?? ) you need to accept modifications on the system , and you HAVE to install SuperSU otherwise the system will not boot
Russian language is like black magic xD
If someone tris it can you confirm this work ?
Thanks

Hi. I repeat again that it does not matter that the touch does not work ... the Recovery works with a mouse and an OTG adapter. Recovery is only for root or to install some zip. Anyway, this Recovery YES works with a mouse.

[Solved] How to root acer liquid zest (3g) model T06

Hey can anyone help me on how to root acer liquid zest (t06) 3g version? I don't seem to find any guides on how to root this phone.
If anyone can help me thanks in advance
Edit:
(Must be flashed with unlocked bootloader.)
To those asking on how I rooted my phone here:
Get this recovery and flash it:Flash this via fastboot/ADB
Mod edit: Link removed as recovery was causing issues with users' devices.
If flashing it doesn't work try booting it instead:
https://aubykhan.wordpress.com/2013/07/21/-tip-boot-into-twrp-or-cwm-recovery-without-flashing/
After Flashing the recovery download supersu and flash it:
https://download.chainfire.eu/969/Su...0630161323.zip
Done you rooted your phone
For anyone asking for a custom rom here:
http://www.droidpeepz.xyz/2016/08/cm-rom-601-cyanogenmod-13-unofficial.html
I know this isn't for acer liquid zest but it worked for me without porting it
try changing themes and settings if the rom is lagging or stuttering
For the stock rom I still need to upload it

I have the same problem as you do and have installed twrp several times but it's not helping i still get stuck into the bootloop that shows twrp trying to do some things but can't do it. So do anybody know where you can find the stock recovery for this device?
do you have a different link for the CyanogenMod? i can't download it in Mega Server, it says "Limit Exceeded".
Hey guys, bought this phone a month back and tried the recovery in the op and the display was off. As well as a couple of the partitions. Just booting the recovery once messed up my touchscreen somehow and I was unable to repair my phone. So I got another one and I went ahead and unpacked the recovery and repacked it with my recovery kernel as well as removed unnecessary partitions from the list of used partitions in the recovery. If anyone has a new liquid zest with Android 6.0, use this recovery:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4bOoJ_E5XzaktJVTcwNFNGazQ/view?usp=drivesdk
Also, I found the stock firmware if anyone needs it, just shout me a message and I'll upload it for you.

that is the stock firmware for the acer z525 aka the t06 aka liquid zest. This firmware flashes with sp flash tools. you will need the mtk preloader driver. alternativly, you can just flash the recovery and boot images included in the firmware package with fastboot. the commands are "fastboot flash boot <image>" for the boot and "fastboot flash recovery <image>" for the recovery. now as I said, this recovery works 100% for me and i have the same phone.... so When you unlocked your bootloader, you used the "fastboot oem unlock" command? and did you press the vol up button on the phone afterwards to confirm the unlock? and did it do a factory reset? all of these things are mandatory prior to flashing the recovery. if you did all of that then i gotta ask, Are you sure you have the z525 and not the z528 with lte?

I have a few questions re TWRP:
1.
Are there different versions available for the X720? If yes, which ones (including download link)?
I believe that I have installed this one ( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862668751 ) which seems to differ from this one: http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-leeco-le-pro-3/
2.
How are the partitions organized on the Le Pro 3? See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/development/ref-lex720-64gb-partition-infos-t3493528
What is the difference between system and systemimage (as shown in TWRP)?
3.
Does the Le Pro 3 TWRP port still have any bugs?
For instance, it says that system is not mounted and, therefore, I cannot easily restore system partition. I tried to mount it but thereafter the phone did not boot.
Is it normal that system apps get restored if I only restore the data partion?
Thanks.

Sometimes I have the same problem, /system couldn't be mounted.
I solved it like this:
In TWRP go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check System Partition -> Repair or Change File System -> Change File System -> EXT4.
Has anyone installed this successfully on 727 US version?

On my x720 I use another one, the latest V4 from chinese sites :
https://mega.nz/#!EVcUCY4J!nN9r170x1eL9uvZg2p4h-q_M9T3I3HxcdSRigl2DNj4
I have now installed TWRP v4 but still have problems to restore a backup.
First, I backed up everything. I tried to restore boot, system, systemimage and data. I did not restore efs, recovery and firmware. Do I have to restore firmware? What is that? What is the difference between system and system image? In any case, I got a lot of errors and the phone is very slow after I restored boot, system, systemimage and data.
Thanks!
The TWRP versions I tried (including v4) have problems and do not reliably mount my encrypted data partition. (I had a similar problem with the initial TWRP ports for the Elephone P8000. The problems were fixed and subsequent ports worked without problems.)
Moreover, if I boot into TWRP recovery the screen is flickering from time to time (probably just a cosmetic issue).
Is there an updated TWRP version 5 or something? Could you please link to the Chinese website where the TWRP port for the LePro3 is made available? Thanks!
I am trying to unlock the bootloader right now using the fastboot oem unlock-go command and it is not working on the US variety. I have also enabled the oem unlocking in dev options, as well as, debugging. Has the US variant changed things to prevent the bootloader from being unlocked?

Cant update TWRP to 3.0.0 (Castor_windy version)

Hi Guys,
I've got a SGP511 WiFi only (castor_windy), with root access and an unlocked bootloader. but to install AOSP 7.1 I need to update my version of TWRP to 3.0.0.
I installed TWRP via TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file and can access recovery but every time i select install look at my SD card and change to images and select the castor_winsy 3.0.0 image i dont get an option to install to recovery i only get kernel how do i resolve this ?
I have re flashed FW (KitKat) via flashtool loads of times
rooted
installed TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file
and every time i get the same option.... cant flash to recovery or boot only kernel
i have attached a screenshot so that nobody thinks i am going mad
can you please help me thanks :fingers-crossed:
It's been a while since I used TWRP 2.8.XX...so no idea what's the issue there but I'd just flash TWRP recovery via fastboot. Worked for me without any problems :good:

Hi ... Is that using the ADB fastboot recovery TWRP.img?
I am on KitKat just wondering if that's why it won't work have you got to be on 6.01 ?
Well, actually it shouldn't matter on which Android version you are, but to have the latest boot.img and radio.img installed I'd flash the latest stock ROM available here on XDA which means by the way having TWRP 3.0.2.0 as well and after that you might be ready for AOSP 7.1
Just have look at kulvertti's thread in the "General" subforum. Since you have already intalled a custom recovery there shouldn't be any problems.

in the terminal window whilst my SGP511 was in fastboot mode i typed fastboot recovery Twrp-3.0.0-0-castor-windy.img is this is correct script or have i got this wrong ?

Hello, you can try out the TWRP recovery I ported. Let me know how it goes. You can flash it via SP Flashtool with your scatter file.

Really You can try re-flashing it and boot into recovery directly via button combos. In the meantime, I will try to port another and post link.

Hi, I tried this one too and also touch didn't work. One more thing I try to used with an OTG mouse to make a backup and after use it my phone got stuck in ulefone logo. I have to unbrick with sp flash tool.
i was able to root my gemini... using the last recovery that Christianihechi give us... i flashed the recovery, got into recovery "touch doesnt work so i connected a usb mouse" and i was able to swape to continue, install supersu zip file, exit from recovery reboot disconect the usb mouse and let the phone boot... and it works fine :laugh:
Wow. That sounds real good. Kudos.

Flashing is via SP Flashtool. You can give it a shot.

Sorry about that. You can use the recovery here if you haven't successfully rooted your Ulefone Gemini.

I've flashed this recovery via SP Flash Tool but when I try to turn on the smartphone in recovery mode the OS gets booted. If I try to use adb reboot recovery I only get a dead droid with the no command prompt. What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: nvm changing SP Flash Tool version did the trick

Hai Bro,i m using a china unbranded phone mtk 6737T android 6.01+ and can i use this recovery to sp flash to root my phone ? Thank.

Access recovery with Magisk installed (no ramdisk) - HELP!

So i manage to get the perfect rom for my needs, with everything working flawless on a TX3 Max.
I just needed to patch magisk to be able to get a valid Play protect certification.
As soon as i flashed the box with the patched recovery i lost the front LED with the clock, and was going to try flash the CLOCK FIX from other TANIX roms on TWRP and see if it would work
It was when i realised i couldn´t acceess recovery from anywhere . Tried holding the reset button, recovery reboot from ADB, reboot recovey apps even from TWRP official app with no luck, allways boot straight to ATV.
Allso tested to enter fastboot or botloader, as this video shows, to try to sideload TWRP, but it seems these boxes don´t work that way:
The question is, is the recovery completely wiped? or is it hidden somewhere, and how can I access it?
And if someone hasa better suggestion on how to get a valid Play protect certification I would be glad to test it.
Tks everyone
have u solved it now?

No, searched everywhere, no answers , and ended up flashing another rom from Aiden, and lived with no root, but play protected.
