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.
CHANGELOG for 3.0.0-0:
-Completely new theme - Much more modern and much nicer looking (by z31s1g)
-True Terminal Emulator - Includes arrow keys, tab and tab completion, etc. (by _that)
-Language translation - It won’t be perfect and especially some languages that require large font files like Chinese & Japanese won’t be availble on most devices. Also some languages may only be partially translated at this time. Feel free to submit more translations to OmniROM’s Gerrit. (mostly by Dees_Troy)
-Flashing of sparse images - On select devices you will be able to flash some parts of factory images via the TWRP GUI (by HashBang173)
-Adopted storage support for select devices - TWRP can now decrypt adopted storage partitions from Marshmallow
-Reworked graphics to bring us more up to date with AOSP - includes support for adf and drm graphics (by Dees_Troy)
-SuperSU prompt will no longer display if a Marshmallow ROM is installed
-Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)
-Update AOSP base to 6.0
-A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks
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.

FAQ:
How to install with Fastboot:
1. Download the fastboot binary for your computer from HTC
2. Connect your phone and boot it into fastboot
3. Run fastboot with the command
Code:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery-twrp-crespo4g-1.0.3.img
Error when flashing some zip files:
twrp only supports the latest and greatest edify script for zip flashing. Please bug the zip developer to update the zip script to edify.
Does this back up the WiMAX partition?
That is an option if you chose, but you'll find it under "efs" and not wimax. Both the NS4G and the GSM Nexus S have an efs partition. The efs partition on the NS4G includes WiMAX along with some other fairly crucial data. It's a good idea to back up your efs separately (e.g. just pick efs and don't choose any other partitions) and keep this backup in a safe place.

What partition?
Most are img files just with a different extension some are .tars. You can try it. If it doesn't work you can just restore.
If i go in TWRP on my storage and look at the backed up images like system.win, data.win, boot.win. how would i use that image in fastboot if for some reason i couldnt get to recovery? Rename it to .img?
Uncle Jimmy says hello
The .win files are either .tar or .tgz files (depending on whether you chose compression or not). The backups themselves are usually done with dd. So long as you're not messing with the recovery partition itself and leaving compression turned off, you should be good to go with fastboot flashing, though I don't have a NS4G myself to check.

No, you can not fastboot system/data/cache/sd-ext/.android_secure as those are essentially tgz. You can how ever fastboot or dd the others which are boot/recovery/efs by renaming it to .img

very very well done.
would there be a way to implement the option to perform backup/restore via adb like on RA recovery?

We don't use nandroid.sh at all. It's not included in our recovery. All of our backups are done in C, so this isn't possible. Sorry.
We didn't base our recovery on CWM or Amon_RA. While we may have used a few bits of code here and there, for the most part we tried to write our own recovery doing things the best way that we thought was possible.

id love to try this out, but from the comments on the site, it appears that the commands listed do not work... also i have a mac so its probably different.
Sweet! I'll have to try this out!
I just gave the new version a quick run around the block...
PROS: The distribution is no longer a boot image that forces a flash of the old FFF 1.0 along with TWRP. It's now an actual recovery image that can be flashed through fastboot like... "fastboot flash recovery twrp-fire-2.1.0.img"
CONS: Even though there are some more reboot options in this new version, they are all still broken. Just as in 2.0.0, none of the reboot options (system, recovery, bootloader... I'm assuming the last one is supposed to boot into fastboot mode) will reset the bootmode accordingly before the device is restarted. That makes these options pretty useless as the device will still continue to boot in the previous bootmode. So, the TWRP bootloops will continue to plague new users who have no idea how to get it to boot to the system.... bummer.
I love that we got this! Buuuuttttt I like 2.0 just fine. Its stable. It works. love to see progress though.

This version is really not ready for use. Hang on to your version 2.0.0 for at least a little while longer.
While I agree its not ready it did work for me to make a back up and then install Hashcode's test rom and restore a back up another user posted for us.

Yeah it will, until you assign the bootmode outside of using the power button from firefirefire (in other words, use fastboot, adb or 'reboot recovery' from a rom to set the bootmode) the reboot wrappers won't set it back. It is actually a relatively simple solution and Smirkis' is familiar with what's required if he is talking to the OP I would expect a solution for this.

If you used the power button to get into recovery while FFF was loading, reboot to system will work fine. That's not what's being discussed here.
If you got to recovery that way, the bootmode was never changed and stayed (presumably) on 4000. So, hitting the reboot from within TWRP will continue to boot in normal mode and it "seems" to work fine.
Try setting the bootmode to recovery (5001) and restart the device to get to TWRP. Then if you try rebooting into the system, it will go back into TWRP because TWRP does not change the bootmode back to normal (4000) before attempting to reboot into the system.
The same problem exists for all the reboot options in 2.1.0... whether normal, recovery, or bootloader, it will not change the bootmode to the appropriate value before restarting the device. As a result, the device will just reboot using whatever bootmode is already set.
EDIT: What Sblood86 said above... I'm just longer winded.
I knew what you meant, but that's not what you explained in your first post. Had you been this specific in your initial post then this conversation would have never happened.
On another note, this recovery might as well be forgotten about. Doesn't seem like they are ever going to fix it completely.
EDIT: Didn't mean for that to sound like i was being rude to kinfauns. That's not how i meant it to be.

I wasn't offended by your post, so you shouldn't take this post that way either... but I don't think you read the thread very carefully before you posted. I think I was fairly clear about what the problem entailed in my first post of this thread. I made it a point to mention that TWRP does not set the bootmode properly before rebooting. In addition, smirkis noted that he's gotten the developer's ear in getting some problems fixed, so things are looking up in terms of getting past these issues.
Furthermore, TWRP can't simply be "forgotten about" because the super majority of articles on the Internet detailing steps in modifying the Kindle Fire mention TWRP. New users will continue to use TWRP just for the fact that it's simply the more recognized recovery program of the two we have available.
FWIW, I'm more hopeful than ever TWRP will get fixed and continued to be developed.
I really do hope it gets fixed. I really like the themeing capabilities. It's a great recovery, just doesn't seem to have much support.

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.

Will nandroids from other recovey work??

Definitely will be keeping an eye on this. Great work.
I can stand bugs, but taking a full minute may be a but much, considering how often I am in recovery. I'm really happy to see it here, though, and can't wait for a more finished product.

From past experience, no. Different file format used in the backup from this recovery and clockwork.
gunna give this a shot. TWRP was awesome on my E3D
EDIT: Working good so far. Screen formatting is a little odd, but not a big deal. The 60 second boot up was a little odd too, but worth it.
Back up in 76 seconds!! File manager!! Win!!
GNEX
I'll definately be following this. I use Boot Manager so I'm only in CWM if a rom wont boot. Once the 60 second issue is fixed, this will be a daily recovery for me. Thanks!

Using this now and even with the bugs it kicks ass, thanks!

same here once the 60 secs is gone this will be my new recovery!
For whatever reason, mine didnt take 60s to come up. I wasnt timing it but it was a reasonable amount of time.
Thanks Dees_Troy and the rest of the TeamWin team, I've been hoping to get a chance to try out TWRP, it sounds very promising! I'm looking forward to future releases that iron out the kinks. Thanks again!
What does it do that clockworkmod doesn't? Except take forever to load. No one's gonna wait 60 seconds to go in recovery. Booting all the way into Android doesn't even take that long. And clockworkmod touch has been around for a while so get that if you want the touch feature.

The interface is 100x better.... And are you in such a hurry that you can't wait a minute to boot into recovery? It's not that serious.
I've never liked CWM so this is a no brainer for me. Plus CWM Touch is just the standard CWM with added touch. Seems cheap to me. TWRP 2 is a completely touch orientated recovery, built from the ground up to do so.

Every zip that I try to flash errors out and fails. Using a verizon gnex.
*update* I flashed the recovery through fastboot and it works fine now. Not sure if something is up with your recovery zip.
There were a few problems with installing zips on the builds I uploaded earlier. If you aren't sure, go ahead and re-update just in case. Sorry.
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.

Works and Yes install through GOO is fine. Only issue experienced from the install so far is when in recovery trying to type or select sometimes creates double entries or backs out of the function completely. But aside from that it is working as expected.

so awesome to have this on the note.
just wondering, does installing this through goo fix the problem we had with CWM root method where if you boot into recovery it would auto write a script to reinstall the standard recovery? right now i am rooted but because of this bug with the new firmware my CWM is gone and i haven't used the adb instructions to fix it.
once you use TWRP you'll never go back to CWM imo

What I am referring to is with the latest rooting method 2 and if you are on the latest firmware when you reboot the firmware automatically rewrites the cwm image. The only way to stop this is via adb check the instructions below that are to be used in the current method
0) Copy the SU/superSU zip file to your tablet.1) Boot into ODIN mode by holding volume down and power. Volume down is the one closest to power.2) Open ODIN on your computer, select the CWM tar.md5 file in the PDA slot, uncheck auto reboot.3) Hit start. It should flash recovery successfully4) Now you want to boot directly into CWM, or you'll lose it. So while holding down volume UP (the one farther from power), hold down the power button. When you see the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 logo, let go of power, or else you'll keep rebooting, but keep holding volume UP. Or at least that's what I had to do, which was kind of surprising coming from other Samsung devices.5) Once in CWM, flash the superSU zip file. Congratulations, you have root, but if you reboot now the firmware will nuke CWM. We don't want to have to flash it again, so let's remove the shell script that nukes CWM.6) Under mounts and storage in CWM, mount system.7) Back on your computer, run adb shell. If you forget to mount system it'll complain because it can't find sh, silly adb. For a second I thought Samsung didn't include sh out of the box and then I realized that makes no sense.8) Type su to become root9) rm /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
So anyways I personally don't know jack squat about adb so I am rooted but don't have cwm installed because it overwrite.
Flashing twrp with goo it flashes for me successfully it claims but when I reboot to recovery I still have stock recovery. I suspect because I didn't do the adb.instructions above that this is the problem
I was hoping flashing this would automatically remove that script you need to remove in adb

Actually, you don't need to use ADB, but that was just the fastest way to do it for me. The script doesn't remove root so you can let it boot up and delete the sript using a root file explorer (these days I'm partial to Solid Explorer Beta). But you'll just have to flash CWM a second time if you let it boot up once.
No recovery found using GooManager
I tried installing TWRP through GooManager, but after several minutes of 'Looking for recoveries...' I guess it gave up

Awesome I got it working now you definitely must delete the file referenced above if you have recently rooted on the latest firmware.
You can also manually flash with mobile Odin if you don't want to use adb like myself while goo is down. Just rename the file to recovery.img
Wanted to say thanks, Dees_Troy! Just picked up a WiFi GT-8013 and this is the first thing I put on it. If you need any help testing or whatnot, feel free to give me a shout and I will test you stuff
Finally got something to flash on this. Anyways it seems like something is messed up with the touchscreen in twrp recovery. Its either much too sensetive or won't scroll at all. Its near impossible to pick a file to flash right now for me anyways if its in a specific folder like downloads
Anyone else?
Yes, i´ve got the same problem, needed 10 minutes yesterday to pick up all the files for cm10 flash...
Same thing here, although I eventually got it to flash. CitizenX, if you flashed CM10, could you report whether your S Pen still works in the CM10 discussion thread? Mine just stopped working with the same errors I was getting last time the S Pen stopped working for me.

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.

BUGS:
If you have found a bug, please consider posting it to our github issues log. It's pretty much impossible for us to keep up with the more than 40 threads that we have for the devices that we "directly" support. If you have a significant problem that cannot be answered in this thread, your best bet is to PM me directly, contact us via our website, or find us in our IRC channel below. If you see someone that's struggling, feel free to point it out to us. We need your help to help us keep track of all of our devices! Thanks!

People had issues with petrov.0 build I personally haven't tested his. This version includes the time fix which is the only difference besides upstream updates.
Thanx for the Update. It did fix the time problem.
discard
Just flashed and work fine 6045Y, but still bug with the time.
Thank you
Updated to new recovery works fine, but I noticed that it takes a long time to make the two wipe Dalvik cache and cache. It happens to you?

Takes a while to boot as well it's slow in general the UI lags. I'm working on that now.
edit: I have succeeded I will upload it after further testing. It's flying now booted in like 3 seconds from fastboot.

Ok meanwhile I restored to DallasCZ aspect you to edit the new version.
ok, since @Unjustified Dev has this thread i will ask the Mods to close my thread to avoid duplicity.
Just installed on my 6045I and I got this error 255. Did I miss something when I flashed the image?
Am I the only one to whom the recovery is painfully slow when performing a wipe of any partition?
On the "old" TWRP release,a wipe of any partition would be done in less than 5 seconds,but on this release,it takes more than 30 seconds.

For me it took over 35 minutes. I was about to force shutdown. 30 seconds is golden by comparison. I'm back on petrov.

I agree with that. I would also be willing to donate for continued support of this phone. Hopefully We'll have cm13 eventually as well
-Update- Started by using the Regular version posted by Unjustified Dev. Took forever to actually boot into TWRP. Backups seemed on par though. Test2 version boots great and in a timely fashion like it should. factory reset with that version just took about 15 minutes.
-Update2- It appears the option in TWRP to use rm -rf instead of formatting clears up the time it is taking to do wipes. My times are 100% better with that option ticked. 15 minute factory reset time to 5 seconds!! And if that wasn't good enough, it also fixes the hangups in restore and I was able to restore in about 3 minutes. Thanks much Unjustified Dev. Personally I'd say test2 is the one for me at this point.
TWRP 3.0 released on feb 5th, 2016
http://twrp.me/site/update/2016/02/05/twrp-3.0.0-0-released.html Article has more details.
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.
CHANGELOG for 3.0.2-0:
-Fix a bug with the input box that affected masked inputs (passwords). This fixes decrypt of full device encryption on devices that support decrypt. This bug also impacts encrypted backups. Users are highly encouraged to stop using 3.0.1 if you use encrypted backups or if you need decrypt of data in TWRP.
-Add Greek translation to some builds.
CHANGELOG for 3.0.1-0:
-support new CM 13.0 pattern encryption (sultanqasim)
-fix slow flashing issue due to modprobe (present on only some devices) (#twrp)
-libtar updated to latest upstream and fixes (jcadduono)
-fixes for loading custom themes (_that)
-TWRP will now detect and install TWRP themes automatically through the normal zip install process (Dees_Troy)
-translation updates - added Italian, Czech and Polish and significant updates to Dutch
-progress bar improvements - progress bar updates during image flashing and better tracks progress during file system backups (tar) (Dees_Troy)
-fix input box text display (Dees_Troy)
-reboot option after zip install complete (bigbiff)
-other mostly invisible bug fixes and improvements
CHANGELOG for 3.0.0-0:
-Completely new theme - Much more modern and much nicer looking (by z31s1g)
-True Terminal Emulator - Includes arrow keys, tab and tab completion, etc. (by _that)
-Language translation - It won’t be perfect and especially some languages that require large font files like Chinese & Japanese won’t be availble on most devices. Also some languages may only be partially translated at this time. Feel free to submit more translations to OmniROM’s Gerrit. (mostly by Dees_Troy)
-Flashing of sparse images - On select devices you will be able to flash some parts of factory images via the TWRP GUI (by HashBang173)
-Adopted storage support for select devices - TWRP can now decrypt adopted storage partitions from Marshmallow
-Reworked graphics to bring us more up to date with AOSP - includes support for adf and drm graphics (by Dees_Troy)
-SuperSU prompt will no longer display if a Marshmallow ROM is installed
-Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)
-Update AOSP base to 6.0
-A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks
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.

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.

If the good folks that built the modified version would share the device tree, I can help unify it with the Edge ( I don't have an edge, but can help @nyfl2004 extract the necessary blobs, et al, to build the Edge in).
Did you start with this by chance? https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_samsung_zerofltespr
It won't flash for me....it gets most of the way through and then it fails.

What version of Odin are you using? I personally use the one linked above which worked fine. Make sure you have enabled OEM Unlocking under Dev options. Also, make sure that you don't bump the cable or anything while flashing I suggest that you just plug it in lay it on a flat surface and just let it run.

That's what I normally do. I've used Odin many times...I'm using the latest version of Odin. Just seeing if anyone else had the same problem.

You can just untar it and that will give you the image. For example, in linux:
Code:
tar xvf New_S6_Spr_TWRP_MM_Bootloader2.tar
That will give you a file called "recovery.img"
Then copy that file to your phone, adb shell in, type "su" at the shell prompt (which will ask you for permission, of course, so grant it); then 'dd' it to the recovery partition as described in the section "dd Install Method (Requires Root)" at https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys6sprint.html.
You don't need Odin to install TWRP in most cases.
Once you successfully flash TWRP...all you need to do for root is flash SuperSU 2.68.
So soon we will have the TeamSpr v2 rite ?

Not taking, still on default recovery
Hi,
Just checking if others see this:
1) turn on oem unlocking (even off then on again to assure it's on);
2) load up Odin3 v3.10.7 (used this to flash twrp in LL, works fine, also used to return to stock and take OTA);
3) turn off R. Reset Time;
4) Flash New_S6_Spr_TWRP_MM_Bootloader2.tar
It just reboots to stock MM, then if I force to recover, it's still stock recovery.
?? Anyone have a clue on that one? I can get to stock recovery and reboot to system still, but sheesh -- no take of the Odin flash of TWRP? Not enough knowledge in my head around Odin for that one if anyone has some help.
