Hi there.
I have this device and willing to participate in the test of CM12 builds.

I own the n5120 and am interested in helping. But I need a little help first...
I have root but the version is too low. I need a recovery archive that will work with Android 4.4 and above. "CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7" sure would help me!
Can someone assist?

I've done full wipe: /system, /data, /cache, /data/media (internal memory). Then I've installed ROM zip (nothing else, no gapps or supersu). Archive was installed too fast IMO, faster than just copying zip file from sdcard to internal memory. Installation script reported status code '0.200000'. After reboot I've got 'infinite' boot animation (waited for 10 minutes, animation didn't stop and nothing else happened). Device became moderately warm.

Understood. It's not easy to work on a device I don't even own.
Gonna work on next release.
Thanks

Installation aborted
Tried to install via CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7.
Result :
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E:Can't open /external_sd/.../cm-12.1....zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.
Do you have checksum for the zip-file?
lg,

Big thanks to you that you are trying to do it, because I had no hope that my n5120 will get update.
I had infinite boot animation problem on Galaxy Note 2 (n7100). Somehow I've managed to start adb daemon during boot process, so I've got shell and logcat and solved the problem. Unfortunately, this was long ago and I cannot reproduce same thing on n5120. Maybe, if you guide me, I could start adb again during boot and get some logs for you?

Yes, full wipe. I waited 20 minutes or so.

hangs
Tested with TEST3 and hangs when booting using as the CWM recovery

Clean flashed test3 zip on my n5120, bootloop. tried SferaDev's rom, also the same.

Full wipe (/system, /cache, /data, /data/media/0, /tombstones). TEST#3 still stuck in boot animation. Waited for 20-25 minutes.

TEST #03 - Bootloop after fullwipe.

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?

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

Hello all I have rooted my note10.1 NI1 and I cannot flash any recoveries without boot looping has anyone tested this on on 10.1 WiFi. Version
Could someone please tell me where I can find themes for 2.8.x ?
Thank you!
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.

Use odin to flash the tarfile in download mode.
Well, I have a problem with flashing : 3 I flashed the Recovery and such yet it just stops on the logo of "Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo" And it doesn't do anything farther than that, I also renamed the file in System which prevents booting into it as I have read somewhere else, Yet, When I flash back the stock recovery it works perfectly. : 3 Can anyone help?
I have the same problem!
I flashed the recovery "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.0-hlltexx.img.tar" with ODIN (tried V3.07, V3.09 and V3.10). But the phone stucks at the samsung logo when I try to boot into recovery. Booting the ROM (4.4.2) is still possible but I can't boot into the recovery.

There are 2 different bootloaders for this device. Make sure you flash the latest version of TWRP as well 2.8.4.0. You either need 4.3 or 4.4 bootloader version depending on what you have installed. If one doesn't work try the other one.

Having an issue. not sure TWRP related or not.
When I go into Root Explorer or Root Browser, I've tried both, I have no TWRP folder.
My wife's tablet is okay. It shows TWRP.
As I wrote on the main thread, after flashing TWRP, it only boots to it if the tablet is connected to the computer...
Is it going to be built new release with encryption feature for Lollipop?
I too am having the issue of TWRP not seeing my internal storage. My N7 came with 5.0.1 and was updated with the OTA to 5.0.2. I then unlocked it in fastboot and flashed TWRP. I cannot see any files or mount any partitions in TWRP. I have tried the last 2.8.5.0 and 2.8.2.2 as suggested by other posters without success. Anyone have any suggestions as to what is going on? I have also tried running 'fastboot -w' and that didn't help either.

2.8.7.0 < 10 mo
Hi maximusmullivan,
Can you please tell us where you dl that version which is < 10M, because on the official website dl.twrp.me/deb/, the only version I see is 10.9M?
I tried installing 2.8.6.0 instead, but my Nexus 7 wouldn't start. I believe it is not compatible with Lollipop 5.1.1 (but that's only a guess because I'm no expert).
Thanks,
Ben

unable to install TWRP on Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100
Hello,
I want to install TWRP 2.8.3.x in my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100. I downloaded the relevant .tar files for ODIN, my phone in download mode was detected in ODIN, loaded the file in AP (ODIN) and started the flashing. But my recovery mode is still the same old stock ones and says NO COMMAND. Where could I have gone wrong?
Kindly rep soon.

Have you tried using the zip update method in TWRP itself?
TWRP
Sorry no. I did not try.
Can you give me a small hint how do I do it?
Also, should my phone be factory reset while I perform all these?

OK. So it is like copy the TWRP .zip file to external sd card, power off the phone, vol up+power button+home button. Then choose "apply update from external storage"
Attached images are showing while flashing
Please help

Try re-downloading. The zip is corrupted. If you can't open it in 7zip you know there is an issue.
Hi,
Before installing TWRP i understand that I first need to unlock the bootloader.
But there is no download link for N7100XXUEMK9 firmware in the respective thread.
Attached is the screenshot of my phone's stock firmware. Can I go ahead and flash the MJ5BLpatch.tar.md5 using ODIN?
then the respective wifi patch and then the TWRP?
Then flash the rom DN4 tim through TWRP?
Please guide me through this. I've been tryin stuffs for a while.
Thank again.

Tired waiting for someone to repack kernel with your favorite version of recovery? Or tired to run recovery script every time you update your ROM or kernel? Now you don't need any repacked kernels or recovery-scripts. Use your FOTAKernel as recovery partition!
It works on any kernel with extract_elf_ramdisk utility (it's built in mostly all kernels for custom ROMs, but I am not sure) by @Dees_Troy. And don't forget, that you are doing on your own risk, I am not responsible for bricked devices, acid rains or thermonuclear war.
Installation:
Download zip and flash it via your current recovery. If your current recovery is unusable, you can flash it via terminal emulator:
- Extract FOTAKernel.img and place it to the root of your external SD-card
- Type su and grant root access
- Type
Code:
dd if=/ext_card/FOTAKernel.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p23
- Reboot to recovery to test if it works (if not, try again and check if you are doing it correctly).
Download:
TWRP 2.8.4.0 (thanks to @Rohan purohit for compiling it for Xperia L, I just ported and modded it)
TWRP 2.8.0.0/CWM (or scroll down, it's right below this post)
You can restore original FOTAKernel image by following instructions in this post (or just scroll down, it is 3rd post, lol).
Some info:
Sony Xperia devices don't have recovery partition. Instead of this in custom kernels is used recovery-in-boot conception with two-stage boot (ramdisk-recovery is packed inside main ramdisk). And there is partition called FOTAKernel that is used for installing official FOTA (firmware-over-the-air) updates. After unlocking your bootloader it partition becomes redundant, because you cannot use OTA function anymore. So it may be used for storing recovery ramdisk. And this very useful future was implemented by recognized developer @Dees_Troy (lead TWRP developer), he developed utility extract_elf_ramdisk (it is merged to almost all kernels for Sony devices), it extracts recovery ramdisk from FOTA partition instead of using regular one from boot image. So even after updating or changing your kernel or ROM you don't lose your current recovery! Here is some info from Dees_Troy.
BTW, I don't own any of this work, I just adapted recovery images for using them from FOTA partition. And recoveries are not compiled by me.

How to solve image unstability in FOTA TWRP?
Hello @cucumber09. I've been trying your FOTA recovery, which I consider a great solution for our device, but I'm facing image unstability while in recovery: the screen flips and flicks horizontally making it very hard to tap correctly any option, and could lead to fatal errors. Could you please tell me a solution? I've tried flashing several kernels/traditional recoveries, but when I make it work satable in recovery, then the OS does'nt boot (bootloop). I'm using stock 4.3 15.4.A.1.9 ROM, unlocked bootloader, rooted, with Xposed Framework and Gravitybox module.
Also I've tried many KK and LP ROMs but I always return to stock 'cause I can't stand glitches and gaps while listening to my favourite tunes.
Thanks in advance,
e-bert.

Your problem is using the stock sony rom, it doesn't support FOTA recoveries properly, as soon as you switch to any other rom the FOTA recovery will work.
Thanks & new question.

OK. Thank you for your quick response. Now, could you suggest to me any custom ROM that has no glitches or gaps in music playing? In yor opinion, which is the best ROM you've tried for our device (Xperia M SS c1904)?
Thanks again.

Everyone has its own taste in roms, I like stable and clean roms and would suggest cm11 or PA, try some of the roms and I'm sure you'll find your favourite.
Bliss pop is good.try it ,the battery is good.smooth performance and id say not much sound glitch .

All hail to all cucumber..
its so frustrated to install kernel only for recovery..
and its more frustrating when your phone not responsive because incompatible kernel.
i recommended to install this trough recovery..
more reliable and low risk..
if you cant install from recovery (signature verification failed), first install another kernel to get unsigned recovery (niu kernel example)..
its a long way, but i'm prefer this than risking my phone because wrong command..
tested in resurrection remix rom 5.1..
Installed fota twrp with terminal, it freezes
So I did just as it was written. Installed it with command thru terminal on a CM 12 rom on Xperia z2.
It did work, for approx 10 seconds. I reboot in recovery, got first the screen for
CM recovery, before it changed to twrp. When I got there, I couldn't press anything
And suddenly it reboot into normal again. Dunno what it can be?!
Stuck on cyanogenmod boot

It is for Xperia M, not Z2. So it won't work on it.
@Neemac i think z2 have official fota twrp, so why you not use them?
