twrp 2.6.3.1 questions - Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I heard that data mounting is broken and can't seem to find a file for it...I want kitkat
So...the questions are:
Where can I download it?
Is data mounting broken?and what do they mean by "data mounting?" Am I better off waiting for a new fixed version of twrp? Possibly 2.6.3.2 will be out soon?

bumping for answers. Im looking for the latest TWRP as well.

Thanks for the bump.I really want kitkat on my fire as I haven't got it on my nexus 7 2013 or obviously my 2012 nexus 7 that doesn't respond to touch...

I actually haven't heard anything about the data mounting being broken. I just flashed the newest version with flashify. And I'm running CM11 now.

You can flash a recovery in a recovery?

You are correct. Data mounting is broken for me and some others on the KF Sub-Forum. So if I were you, I would wait about a month or 2. If you can't, oh well. You were warned
EDIT: Made a guide. Flash TWRP first but if you have problems with it after you install it like I had (data mount errors), then follow this guide to fix it.

cant get newer twrp to work
I am having trouble with getting the newer versions of twrp to boot up correctly. I have manually flashed all the most recent versions of TWRP with command prompt, I even used flashify but every version would either freeze at the teamwin logo or would not boot into recovery at all. I went down the list (downloaded and installed each version) and the only version of twrp that would work on my kindle is 2.4.0. Even after doing this, I cant seem to get passed the boot animation when flashing roms, the boot animation is off centered and cut off to the top right. The boot animation would play then freeze then would start a boot loop. I wiped all data, cache and everything else needed before and after flashing the rom but no results. Can someone please help me out?

Can someone give me the link to go from 4.3.1 to 4.4??

I'm running Dirty Unicorn 4.3.1 and MK4 and want to root to 4.4 kit kat and load some new roms.
I have tried just wiping and flashing, but I get no data unless i'm on wifi.
Is there a step by step to get the update?? I also read about some knox crap also. Don't know what that is.
Please advise.......
Thanks in advance

Well if you read most of the 4.4 rom threads you will see you need to use cwm recovery or philz recovery. Since you are using twrp you wont get data to work without going through a few hoops.

I did download rom manager and Philz. I just wasn't sure how to get them to override TWRP. Do I just flash Philz??
Thanks so much for chiming in. I've been rooted for several years, but this update flew right by me.
Keep talking......
Yeah just flash it through ROM manager then reboot into recovery. If it is not philz recovery (although it should be) then you can just flash it in recovery.

I downloaded rom manager, but it doesn't seem to override TWRP. I also tried to flash Philz (which I preferred), but I could only try to flash it with TWRP, and of course, it failed.
Do I need to freeze TWRP in Titanium backup ???
Please re-download Philz and verify md5 then flash in twrp. After flashing in twrp reboot the recovery within twrp and boom! you have Philz!

Each time I download Philz, I try to flash it, (through TWRP),but it fails.

Like you, I could not get TWRP to leave my device (no matter what I tried). Only thing that finally worked was this flasher utility to get CWM:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools
Granted I didn't try to Odin PhilZ or CWM but that was about the only thing left I hadn't tried.
I had twrp for a recovery. When I installed DU 4.4.2, I downloaded cwm 6.0.4.3 because I guess twrp and 4.4 roms don't play nice. I actually downloaded the cwm recovery, saved it on my external sd, and booted into twrp recovery, flashed the recovery file for cwm, and it rebooted. I boot back into recovery with cwm on board, and then downloaded whatever 4.4 roms and gapps package that was necessary. It works fine for me.

Update TWRP

I bought a used phone that already has TWRP 2.3.3.1 installed. I'm trying to update the rom in used, but first need to update TWRP to 2.7.0.0 (since I receive a set_metadata_recursive failure). I tried with goomanager, it says it updated recovery sucessfully, but when booting, still have 2.3.3.1. I tryed using dd, but still have the old version. Seems the only solution left is Odin, which require windows ? That I don't have.
Any other solution to update TWRP ?

Try flashify root

Have you tried mobile odin? Also lots of people having problems with latest twrp, but the most recent 2.6 (can't remember the whole version #) works fine
Thanks

well i took that file from freegee folder, maybe you must flash this file first
Download CWM OR TWRP without any hassle
Just download freegee(root) from Google play store and once installed and opened ....let it download the necessary....then just click on cwm or twrp as per ur wish ......u might then feel as if the app has frozen....but it is the process of downloading...... And once finished it will show flash successful ....
Works with 4.4.2?
I used the FreeGee app on stock 4.4.2 V20c earlier, but it bricked my device. Why is that? How do I install a recovery on 4.4.2?
i have a question on flashing the cwm recovery image, i had to go back to stock as i was soft bricked - i now need to install a recovery and i am sure that when i did this a few weeks ago on my g pro i used flashify and flashed the cwm recovery image through this app and everything works ed well, now i am trying to do it and it flashes the file but wont go into recovery - it says fastboot mode started but never goes into recovery, i also tried rom toolbox to flash it and not having any luck - anyone have a way to do this ?

I would like to install a CWM touch variant, is there a way to get it done with KK stock rom?
I know it needs to be "lokified", but I have no clue how to do this.
Is there any tutorial to do this?

Philz touch cwm is a good one, you can find here on xda, or via Google search. However, my personal experience with cwm touch variant on e980 is that it causes the recovery bootloop (where you just keeps on going back to the recovery screen). Version 6.0.47 is stable , and will not cause the boot loop say when you try to open the recovery by using the up volume + power buttons. This seem to be the issue too with the cwm provided by cm update in the developer's option. Read the postings in the Philz's thread if you want to know more about the recovery loop and the touch cwm.
I get wrong date and time whene i make a backup. I have a E986. How can i fix this?

Stuck after Install Rom

Hello to everyone ,
i installed miui v6 to my M8 and after that i cant flash any other rom.
I install a new rom from zip but after the reboot it stucks on the first screen of the new rom.
Waited for 3 hours but nothing.
What do you suggest ?

simple question, do you flashed the boot.img inside the rom using fastboot?(fastboot flash boot boot.img)
Simple answer.
No.
Now what ?

This isn't normally required on the M8, unless its some quirk specific to MIUI (which is a ROM I don't a have much knowledge of).
Make sure your TWRP version is up to date.
Make sure your hboot is up to date.
Wipe user data and cache (default wipe in TWRP) before flashing the ROM.
Those are the most common reasons for no boot after flashing multiple ROMs.
I dont use TWRP. I use Philz Touch recovery.
Where can i download latest TWRP ?

That may be the issue right there. I know some folks are still using it, but Philz hasn't been updated in a long time. And since some newer ROMs have issues with older TWRP builds, I would assume the same would be true with Philz.

You should be able to boot to bootloader if it's the same problem I have. You can then either flash the stock recovery or this version of TWRP which should fix the problem; https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70296158&postcount=79
