Can't install TWRP recovery succesfully

This is really funny because I keep finding all these weird issues with my phone and because I am still under 10 posts I can't post in the appropriate threads to find a solution and I have to write here. I am trying to install TWRP and than Husen4u's 4.2.2 rom.
As Husen4u helped me on a message he suggested I should flash KK beta instead of CN118 in order to avoid the brick chance before I flash the last TWRP recovery. I am now on 4.4.2 beta. I do exactly as the guide suggests to install TWRP recovery and I can't get into TWRP recovery after installing it, I just get stuck in Ascend logo screen. Even though I get the report that TWRP-recovery flashed succesfully and the phone reboots back into the system. What is the problem in this case?
Judge teptrar
Problem solved, I needed the TWRP especially for KK only! Even though the other was supposed to work too it had some issues. But can I use that to install a 4.2.2 rom? I guess I can?

Another funny bug, I wanted to switch to B118 recovery to apply an update and when I did the bug returned! you can't upload original rom if you don't put in internal storage now (like it was in the beginning). Also I have noticed the vibration stays on for as long as you are on original recovery

Running good on my Find7a. Thanks!
@Phil3759
I installed this recovery and was working fine on my find7a. But when try to run the aroma installer I made it got stuck when launching the zip file.
All other custom recovery works fine with the aroma installer I made for find7a.

Yeah i can confirm that it doesn't work on Find 7 (X9076)
I installed via fastboot method and booted in CWM with any issue, but next time I wanted to boot into CWM it booted to stock recovery :/ The same for Flashify app method. Any suggestions? I am rooted and with Find 7a, still on ColorOS.
Thanks
Phil3759,
Just installed version 6.48.4 for tests (I used TWRP 2.7.1.0 before) using Tantrums's Recovery flasher v2 (in which I renamed and inserted your new recovery replacinf the 6.42.2) because I simply like your recovery
That said, my first tests are not really good as backup is deadly slow and crashed before the end. For the record, TWRP backup is quite quick (it is having some bugs either such as a magnificent "0 MB has been saved") but it is working OK anyways and custom restore can be done using Titanium Backup.
I attached the recovery log file. As usual, feel free to let me know if I can provide more information.
Sadly I have to go back to TWRP 2.7.1.0 :crying:

maybe try to set backup format to CWM, not TWRP mode
Also, are you sure you have enough space ?

Good news, CWM mode is working fine. Still really really slow but 100% functional.
Funny though, you have the same 0.00MB saved issue as TWRP (see attached logs).
I'll do further tests tomorrow.
Phil3759,
I finally found where my issues were coming from. I used Find7 recovery instead of Find7a one. I was simply attracted by higher build number
Fortunately, it did no brick my phone

will it work for x9076
rayQ111,
It is supposed to work with x9076 but I installed it on a x9006 hence my slowness issues.
Do we have to stay with 6.42.2 or can we update to 6.48.4 ? Or is it unnecessary ?
@Phil3759
i made backup on my oppo 7a and while trying to restore the backup now, it gave me all the time the error messgae "No files found"
How can i solve this issue?
Even tried to copy the backup to internal memory but same issue....backup isn't possible
edit: solved is working!
Does aromafm.zip load correctly?
Phil3759,

TWRP v2.8.0.0 for P605
Hi! - I also have the "TWRP v2.8.0.0 (external-) backup files not found on SD card"-problem! ... Only internal backup works (to: data\media\0\TWRP)! - If backing up to either external_sd (extSdCard) or USB storage, TWRP first seems to do the job (works, and works ...), but after reboot, no files are stored under: storage\extSdCard\TWRP or under data\media\0\TWRP, or on an attached USB stick/card-reader! ... Only backup to "internal storage" works (correctly?) - and everybody needs root-access for to move the backup to an external medium, especially, if the small 16GB internal memory is full!
I now have bought a Galaxy Note 4, the last week, have rooted it and have installed TWRP v2.8.1.0 on it. - There everything works perfectly! ... Why not on Note 10.1 2014? ... I still wait for the v2.8.1.0 update of TWRP for the P605 device. Will it change that issue?

Do you have lt03wifiue?
No, I don't have the Wifi only version. The P605 is with LTE and Qualcom. - Are you sure, that I also can use the v2.8.1.0 of TWRP for the P600 (Wifi only tablet)?

Hi!... v2.8.1.1 /4.4 works perfectly! Thank you very much for your support!... Many people are using either the P600 or the P605 - and I believe, that the official support (also regarding tools to root them, or CyanogenMod) for these tablets is unfortunately a bit slow in contrast to Samsung phones... But somehow, with a bit luck, everything is to find somewhere... I like you!... Carsten

Hi,
TWRP manager crashes when I try to install TWRP. I select the device as lt03wifiue and select openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-lt03wifiue.img. Then, when I hit install recovery, it downloads and then asks me to verify the partition as /dev/block/mmcblk0p10. When I click yes, it starts and then crashes. I tried multiple twrp versions, but they all crash.
EDIT: I ended up doing it through odin.

I'm trying to install the xposed zip that's been released for the Samsung devices but due to the unsigned zip I need something other than stock recovery. I've been able to sign the zip but when I try to install I receive a bad header (or very similar) message. Obviously I'd like to try and keep the device as close to stock regarding kernal and recovery as possible, but to gain other features the custom recovery is the way to go.
I've decided on using TWRP but can't find a compatible build.
Where would I ask to see if a build for this version can be had and what would I need to provide to facilitate the build. I own a Samsung SM-P607T (lt03ltetmo), Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 version).
It appears that I've been able to get a good backup of the stock kernal and recovery including what appears to be a valid backup of all the blocks for the device.
I've used Chainfires adb insecure to try and install the zip file, but that turns USB debugging off and I haven't found a work around or fix for that yet.
Thanks for your help.

Would you mind if we took this offline and I ask some questions that I think you can answer for me, rellated.to trying to keep as close to stock as possible while using certain toolsets to enhance the tablet experience.
I think I'll try that version later today, when I have some time...I hadn't noticed it when I was searching for a compatible version.

I need to correct myself, I did see that update. I'm on 5.1.1 and the latest version I've seen is 4.6 and I don't know what I'll break, if anything, or if I currently have the knowledge to roll back to functioning stock recovery if needed. Granted I have backups of the kernal and recovery (from two different sources), first 100 meg blocks...all the device blocks and partitions. It's been about 8 years since I was able to setiously pursue testing and many things have changed on me.

Please ask questions here for others benefit.
I am not sure what you are referring to with version 4.6. All you usually need is your stock odin firmware tar to return to stock using Odin.

First, bigbiff I really appreciate your patience with me and taking the time to answer my questions and help me through this process.
I thought the 4.6 was the Android version the recovery was built for and I'm on 5.1.1 and thought I would run into issues considering what I'm reading about this 5.1.1 and the changes that have been incorporated.
My goal in this is to get xposed installed, functioning, and upgradeable if and when the opportunities present themselves, while remaining as close to stock as possible and not tripping that switch (whatever it's named) which for me is still 0x0 although the device status reads custom (fairly easily resolved with a full wipe and factory install is my understanding) .
Currently I'm rooted with Chainfires cf-auto-root for lt03ltetmo. Evrything still works, S-Pen, wireless, etc., etc., etc.
Clearly I need to install a custom recovery. In my reading I came across this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...root-tmobile-sm-p607t-5-1-1-firmware-t3215541 and a modded kernal from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10-2014/general/root-root-stock-kernel-t3240218. With my current root status and SuperSu installation I'm thinking I need to clean up and uninstall SuperSU and then proceed with the above recommendations.
That is unless just installing the TWRP you mentioned will get me to a stable position.
I'm just looking for the best method to use to get the xposed installed that leaves me with the fewest or no issues as far as using the tablet.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Hello, I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition. SM-P600. Running Stock 5.1.1 and Rooted.
I am looking for correct TWRP .tar file to flash with ODIN. Thanks.

Don't worry, I can understand you. Because cm12 is a new version of android from 4.4, you need to have a special recovery. Off you read his first post on the cm12 forum, it says you need to use the one he linked, which is Clockworkmod 2.5.x I believe (I may be mistaken) just download the recovery he linked with adb and it should work fin! When you flash, it gives you an error, but ignore it it still flashed successfully.
Best of luck,

TWRP crashes with blue LED and vibration

Hi,
so today I tried to update my P2 to Android 9. I was using the following rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/rom-aospextended-rom-v6-3-lenovo-p2-t3903454
It was a clean flash, meaning that everything was wiped. After installing the rom, I noticed that TWRP gets stuck at the logo and then just turns black. The blue LED and vibration appear.
I cannot restore any backup but I CAN boot into the rom itself.
I tried to use other recoveries, but didn't have success yet. Is there any TWRP version for Android Pie?
The recovery also crashes when I try to boot it via fastboot.
Thanks for your help.
SOLVED!
Here's how:
Simply use the recovery that is linked here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/how-to/guide-step-step-installation-android-t3893625
It's an extractable Zip with a working recovery.

this issue seems to pop-up now and then.
just to make it easier for future users coming across this issue. I had explained the issue here in the following post and how to fix it.
just scroll down till it says: "so for those that would like to switch to f2fs but for some reason end up in "black screen with blue led and the phone vibrates".
it applys to the same /data issue.

Same problem
Hi all,
I also have the same problem. I tried everything from erasing the system, reflashing the device, flashing recovery to a fork of TWRP but none of this worked.
I want to be able to run updates, which is not possible without a working recovery!
Has anyone else a solution?

Hi!
As I've mentioned in the "solved" answer to my own question, the TWRP recovery linked here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/how-to/guide-step-step-installation-android-t3893625 works just fine. It's called lineagerecovery.zip and you can download it in the download section of that guide.
This is a direct link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4693524&d=1548436798#
Only use this recovery since it's the only one working for the P2 at the moment. Also make sure that your P2 is the p2a42.
For further questions, feel free to comment again.

This is a direct link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4693524&d=1548436798#
Only use this recovery since it's the only one working for the P2 at the moment. Also make sure that your P2 is the p2a42.
For further questions, feel free to comment again.

Thanks a lot. This helped me. I was searching for a solution and then i found this. I would just like to know why this happened and would be highly obliged if you could explain it to me.
Once again thank you Sir.
