[Recovery] Official TWRP for Galaxy S6 edge+ (3.0.2-1)

Team Win Recovery Project 3.0.2-1
WARNING #1: Flashing a custom recovery to your device will trip the Knox warranty bit on your phone. Check with your mobile provider to see if they will still cover warranty on Knox bit triggered devices. If you understand this risk, continue on.
You generally don't have to worry, as it's incredibly hard to brick a Samsung device, and physical damage warranties should be exempt from Knox triggering.
WARNING #2: The Galaxy S6 edge+ stock boot image has dm-verity, which prevents you from booting if you swipe to enable system modifications!
SOLUTION: Flash a root such as SuperSU or phh-superuser. You can also flash .
WHAT IS TWRP?
Oh come on, you know what it is - don't try to fool me!
In case you're serious, though...
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.
DOWNLOAD
You can find the device page here:
[url]http://teamw.in/devices/samsunggalaxys6edgeplus.html
There is a download link there, as well as instructions on how to flash it.
I highly recommend using Odin to flash when possible.
You can find a zip containing Odin as well as a link to Samsung's Mobile drivers page here:
https://idlekernel.com/flash-tools/
FULL STEPS FOR ROOTING YOUR DEVICE
In your ROM, go to Settings -> About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now go to Settings -> Developer options. (above About device)
You need to enable OEM unlock, otherwise you might end up with boot problems or be unable to flash later on.
Extract Odin_3.12.3.zip to your computer.
Install Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers for Odin to find your device.
Download a .tar image of TWRP for your device variant.
Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, select reboot from the power menu and hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons while your device reboots.
Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.
Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot without touching any other options, then press [Start].
Hold [Volume Up] + [Home] buttons near the end of the flash, and keep holding them until you are in recovery.
At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow step 12 you will be unable to boot!
If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.
Only if you want your internal storage or data partition to work in TWRP:
Go to [Wipe] -> [Format Data] (not advanced wipe) -> type "yes".
WARNING: This will wipe your internal storage, disable encryption, and factory reset your phone!
Go to [Reboot] -> [Recovery].
If you only want a bootable system partition or readable data in TWRP:
Download dm-verity and force encryption disabler.
Without exiting TWRP, transfer no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.
** If your internal storage is encrypted, you will need to use adb sideload instead.
Go to [Reboot] -> [System].
Wait up to 5 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.
* MTP, known as Media Transfer Protocol, is the same way you transfer files from your PC to your device when booted into system.

not crashing
backup & restore works for each partition
mtp
vibration
otg storage
whatever else you can think of checking

welcome to xda, don't say you'll do things, just do things, it makes people think that they don't have to do it because someone else will do it eventually, slowing things down for everyone.

But there has never been a custom recovery for the s6 edge + USC model. (SM-G928R4 US Cellular) Unless I have missed something then please point me in the right direction for a custom recovery for this specific model.

perfect update TWRP for G928F
https://idlekernel.com/twrp/zenlte/3.0.2-1/twrp-3.0.2-1-zenlte.zip
flash from CWM

It works perfectly fine! The only bug I've found is that vibration doesn't work but that's really not important
Sent from my SM-G928F using XDA-Developers mobile app

Can someone please work on a custom recovery for SM-G928R4? I mean come on now :'(

Works really great on my 928g only vibrations don't work but I don't care thanks a lot.

Guys help
I am using note 5 twrp-3.0.0-0-nobleltezt recovery for my G928C so how to flash this

I have the international SM-G9287 Duo variant on the latest firmware 6.0.1/MMB29K/G9287ZHU2BPC6 (marshmallow) and it's rooted. When I get to the step to press Home+Vol up towards the end of the flash it just reboots normal. Then when I turn of to boot into recovery Home+Vol up+Power I get "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" in red along the top with the Samsung GS6 logo. I have a tar file with the stock recovery and that boots fine. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I can't find the download link to v.3.0.2-1 on the device page. Am I searching in the wrong place? (https://dl.twrp.me/zenlte)

What's AOSP?
AOSP is Android as Google publish without other modifications. More or less AOSP is the Nexus devices stock rom without gapps.
What's Working:
RIL (Calls, SMS, Data)
Fingerprint
Wi-Fi
Bluetooth
Camera
Camcorder
Video Playback
Audio
Sensors
Flash
LED
GPS
Important Info:
To flash this rom you need TWRP 3.3.1.0 or newer.
Make sure you have the vendor, radio, & bootloader img's installed, from the stock oreo 8.1 OPM7.181205.001 Dec 2018 factory image.
They can be extracted from the factory image on google's site here. Or you can use the ones linked below that I already extracted:
vendor, radio, bootloader img's: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=286833
The vendor img is flashable with twrp or fastboot. For the radio and bootloader img, use fastboot.
Instructions:
If updating from a previous AOSP-10 build, follow the steps below:
If you don't already have them installed, flash the newest vendor, radio, and bootloader img's linked above.
Boot into TWRP.
Flash the ROM zip.
Reboot & enjoy.
Note: if you previously flashed gapps and/or the su addon, there's no need to flash them again. They will be automatically re-installed during rom zip installation.
If coming from a different ROM:
If you don't already have them installed, flash the newest vendor, radio, and bootloader img's linked above. also make sure you have the newest twrp, linked above.
Boot into TWRP.
Wipe system & data & cache partitions.
Format data.
Flash rom & GApps & su zips (GApps & su zips are optional).
Reboot & enjoy.
Note:
If your phone suffers from the bootloop issue, download the BLOD patch and install it via TWRP (4 Core) after flashing the ROM .

Install Instructions
Grab our recovery from the OP Post section and install it.
Through TWRP Recovery:
Install Zip > Install Image > Choose ‘recovery.img‘ > Select partition ‘Recovery’ > Swipe to confirm flash
Through Fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Install the ROM and then wipe your internal data partition.
Through TWRP Recovery:
Wipe > Format data
Through Fastboot:
Code:
fastboot -w
Reboot into system and wait until the process finishes, it could take a little bit. After the installation is done, I suggest waiting before using the phone because it usually goes into thermal throttling after installing a ROM.

Google Drive is fine. Thanks!

Probably a noob question, but how do I know if I have the bootloader, vendor and radio installed? And if they're installed (which I don't know) and I flash the ones linked above, would it cause any issues to my phone?
New here btw, thank you very much!

Bootloader and radio are installed for sure by default. You can check their versions starting the device to bootloader.
If there is a Vendor mismatch is show to you as soon as you enter the home.

if I am doing a clean install is it necessary to flash Gapps ?

No. You can either flash or not flash GApps.

I just wanted to chime in and Say thank you @PixelBoot! Also does anyone have a recommended stock like Gaaps that replaces all default apps with their Google counterpart?

I hope there's anybody can help me. I wiped system & data & cache, then flashed the rom. As TWRP said - successfully. While trying to boot the system I saw the message that there is "no OS installed". I tried to boot it anyway and it worked. System booted normally, but it's looking very old fashioned. According to system information in the menu it is android 10 aosp. I realized there is no gapps so I wanted to install them. And here my problem starts - while trying to open TWRP from bootloader by choosing 'Recovery mode' it every time boots the system instead TWRP.

1. It seems the official TWRP 3.1.1.0 does not work, and one must use the "FBE" version. Otherwise it will not boot and the recovery cannot decrypt the storage.
2. After each startup, recovery becomes inaccessible. Trying to boot to recovery just boots to the system instead. I had to re-flash the recovery each time.
3. Background music slightly stutters when other sound clip starts to play (for example, a button sound effect in an app) or the screen rotates.
4. Some useful LineageOS features are not present, such as: double-tap to wake, ADB over Wi-Fi, volume button reorient when rotating, scramble number positions for lock screen PIN input, power button long-press for torch.
5. Auto-brightness seems often suddenly to make the screen too dim.
6. Fingerprint sensor is a lot less sensitive than the stock or LineageOS.

Here is my takes on these "issues":
1. I have linked the recovery which works in the OP thread both for 4 core and 8 core users. Don't see the reason of flashing the recovery from the TWRP website.
2. Yes. I have noticed this. It is an inconvenient bug, but since recovery isn't used too much, we'll have to deal with this minor issue.
3. Logcat would be appreciated if sent while listening to the music.
4. I'm not sure if you are aware that the reason behind this ROM is for the simplicity and stock AOSP. This is not about being feature packed, but is supposed to simulate a newer version for the Nexus 6P's previous firmwares.
5. This setting is set to the default one of AOSP. No modifications were set unlike that of LineageOS.
6. This should be more or less the same as the experience found on LineageOS as the device tree is very similar.

1. I just happened to already have the official 3.1.1.0 installed before installing this ROM. I read the description and thought that since my version was already 3.1.1.0, I did not have to install a new TWRP. This caused me a lot of problems (wasted time waiting it for to boot, lost all files on the Data, because I had to re-flash the stock ROM). I wrote this to help other users so that the may not experience the same thing I had.
3. I have tried Google Music and another third-party music player and the symptom was the same, so I thought it was a known issue. Anyway, this is not really a big issue, just a small stuttering, and I have disabled screen rotation. I just wrote that to help others to know about it before they decide to move to this ROM.
4. Yeah, I know. I did not write that to complain, or force you to implement those, but as other things, I wrote that to help others to decide before installing. Because changing ROM is a big and time-consuming thing, so it is good to know what it can do and what it cannot do before doing it.
5. I see. I could find a workaround, like creating an app that can modify the dimming degree, or disable auto-brightness.
6. This is strange. I can definitely feel big difference. I had been using LineageOS, and most of the time, I used the fingerprint sensor to turn on the phone instead of pressing the power button. Well, this is not a deal-breaker. I just have to put my finger one or two more times or wait one more second till it gets unlocked.
Thanks for the ROM. So far, for me, the feature I can get from Android 10 outweighs the downsides above. I had been stuck at Android 8 for over two years, and it was boring.

Yup, completely normal.

Can’t modify the system in any way e.g copying Pixel Launcher to system
Is this because of data encryption?

USB-OTG
<!> There can be many more bugs unknown to me and testers. Report as soon as you face problem.
<!> PSA: I don't have the device to verify some of these bugs.
Download:
TWRP (3.7.0): https://github.com/almondnguyen/twr...a32-20230208/TWRP-3.7.0_12.1-a32-20230208.tar

Disable VBMeta: https://forum.xda-developers.com/at...236537/?hash=f7249adaefe16f3aeac3256a63063f0a
(Optional) Root using Magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/
Install:
If you have TWRP or any custom recovery installed and bootable, you can upgrade instead; Look below.
<!> the installation will require WIPING DATA. You will also lose access to all Knox-based solutions like Secure Folder.
Backup every precious data you have on your phone.
<!> PC is required. Windows is preferred. (You probably know what you are doing when using Linux/Heimdall. We don't talk about Macs)
Unlock Bootloader:
Go to Settings > About Phone > About Software. Tap build number (10 times) until "you are now a developer" toast shows up.
Go back, go to Developer Settings.
Turn on OEM unlock toggle.
Turn off your phone, hold vol-up + vol-down, then plug in charging cable (please don't use 3rd-party charging-only cable, it must have data transfer capability).
Your device will boot into download mode with a warning. Accept it.
Hold volume-up until the phone shows the bootloader unlock panel "Unlock Bootloader?".
Press volume-up again. Now your phone bootloader is unlocked.
<!> It will now begin the process of wiping data. Let it do its job.
‎
When it reboots to OS, finish setting up your device.
Double check to make sure OEM Unlock is still ON.
‎ ‎
 
Preparing for the installation:
Download everything above onto your PC.
Install Samsung USB Driver.
Open Odin.
Connect your phone to your PC. There should be a COM entry on the top.
Make sure your phone is in Download Mode. (see step 4 of section Unlock Bootloader)
Make sure that OEM LOCK and REACTIVATION LOCK on your screen show "OFF". If it's not off, DO NOT PROCEED ANY FURTHER.
<!> For those with lock ON, use your device for 7 days without rebooting once. Then check the locks above again.
‎  
 
Installing:
Ensure phone is in Download mode.
In Odin:
Load in Userdata: VBMeta_disabler.tar file.
Load in AP: TWRP TAR file.
Prepare yourself. keep your hand on Volume-up and Power button (don't press yet).
In Odin, press Start. It will flash, then reboot. When the screen turned off, quickly press Vol-up and Power button to boot to recovery (this should take about 20~30 seconds).
<!> You should have TWRP up and running now.
‎  
 
Post-Installation:
MUST: Trigger Multi-disabler.
In TWRP, go to Advanced > Terminal.
Type multidisabler, then enter. If it fails with something about vendor free space, run it again.
Run multidisabler again.
Go to main screen. go to Wipe > Format Data, type yes then swipe.
Reboot to Recovery. Now you can do other stuff.
 
Should: Backup all vital partitions:
In TWRP, go to Backup
Backup: EFS, Modem, NVRAM.
Enjoy: Reboot your phone to have a rooted stock, install custom stuff or do whatever you want.
Upgrade:
<!> Use when you already have any custom recovery installed (TWRP, SHRP, Ofox and the likes)
Download the tar recovery image, then extract it to get recovery.img
Copy it to phone, then reboot to TWRP (Combo is Power + Volume-up)
Go: Install > Install image > select recovery.img file > select Recovery
Swipe to confirm flashing.
If success, reboot to recovery.
<!> You can also use Odin to upgrade, the steps similar to the Install section. All Post-installation, if already done, is unnecessary to do again.
GSI and related stuff:
GSI should be directly flashable now. Big credit to @Long266
Install TWRP, do all the instructions.
Download a GSI. Phh's is a good start.

If downloaded a compressed file (the extension is not .IMG; e.g: `gsi.img.gz` ), extract it to get an IMG file. Copy the IMG file to your phone.
Reboot into TWRP.
Tap Install > Install Image > Select your GSI .img file.
Select System Image, then flash.
If previously you were on stock, Wipe > Format data.
Reboot System.
Profit.

I can't install large IMG files to internal memory? For example a gsi?

I should clarify that I don't own the device and all the testing was/is done by @Long266 .
These specific questions should be inquired to him instead (on his thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...hawk-recovery-project-3-1-2021-03-24.4420469/ ).
Anyways, the bug that you are mentioning means that you can't flash images FROM internal SD card. GSI and image stuff should be flashable from other places like external SD or cache. Zip files are so far working as intended (as is they are flashable from anywhere).
To be fair, there could be flaws in his testing methodology and you should try it yourself.

Thanks Bro
I will owe the test of the A325M. I have no SD card at the moment.

Build 2022-03-25 changes:
Add backup entry for NVRAM, so in case Magisk messes up you still have a working copy intact.
Fix flashing image causing file size exceeded limit.

Updated TWRP Link, previously pointing to dead end.

It worked fine on the A325m, but I had NULL errors when I went to do some actions, and the USB OTG is not working!

How to update the TWRP version if it is already installed?
Is it enough to just flash the new TWRP version in Odin?
Or do I need to do the same steps as with the first installation (i.e. multidisabler, etc)?

You can use the "install Image" under TWRP.
From the <!> For more info part, download .img file instead, copy it to your phone. Then go to TWRP > Install > Install Image > select TWRP img > select Recovery to flash.
If you've done, Post-installation steps are unnecessary to do again.
edit: upgrade section added to main post.

How to deactive KC Client and
Knox Enrollment Service?

Hi, I wanted to try a GSI with this, is it safe to try it? Thanks for developing this TWRP, I can help with testing too.

Okay, I tested flashing phh's AOSP GSI, TWRP doesn't have the entry to flash to the dynamic partitions (system, vendor, product, etc). It can flash only to the super partition. Tried to flash the GSI there just in case, but i get a bootloop obviously. Restored successfully through ODIN. I wont test magisk because I don't want to lose IMEI.

I could install the Lineageos 19.1 GSI! I had to use this zip as a workaround ChonDoe_Flasher.zip, that allows flashing dynamic partitions even if the TWRP doesn't. I also made a treble overlay for this device (vendor.img), that fixes power profiles and all this stuff, ill upload it now if anyone is interested.
To flash the GSI you have to rename the .img file to system.img, put it in the same location than the zip and flash the zip. I have the scripts inside the zip to check if it didnt do anything weird and the source code seems safe, tried two GSIs today.
What doesnt work with the Lineage GSI or phh's AOSP is MTP and the fingerprint reader. Also i can't get encryption to work, the GSI crashes if i don't use multidisabler to remove encryption from the fstab. Everything else works flawlessly from my testing.
For file transfer i'm using ADB with this tool, it's even faster than MTP somehow Python ADB File Explorer
EDIT: Uploaded vendor.img with the overlay for this device, ill push the changes to github later.
Download here: vendor.img

What's TWRP?
Oh come on, you know what it is - don't try to fool me!
In case you're serious, though...
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, root your device and more.
Read more about TWRP here: https://twrp.me/about/
How do I flash and set it up correctly?
Please notice that the following guide is meant for full stock devices, if you've already rooted your device you can skip it and flash directly the recovery without any extra steps.
Before starting, make sure to backup all your data and important files stored in your phone, since this procedure will format your data partition.
Download Odin3, Samsung's Android USB Drivers, the latest TWRP's tar and a disabled vbmeta image.
Make sure your phone's bootloader is unlocked, follow the guide below in case it isn't:
Spoiler: Unlock the bootloader
Open the Settings app, enter Developer Options and enable OEM unlocking (If you don't see Developer Options, enter into About phone>Software info and tap "Build number" 10 times to show it).
Enter Download Mode: to do so power off your device, connect it to a computer via an USB cable and hold both volume up and volume down buttons.
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and your phone will automatically reboot.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again later. Make sure to connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enter Developer Options and check that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means our bootloader is unlocked and your phone has no KnoxGuard lock set.
Connect your phone to your PC and boot in Download Mode (power off your device and hold both volume up and volume down buttons).
Open Odin3, select the TWRP tar by clicking the "AP" button and the patched vbmeta tar by clicking "USERDATA", then press the Start button.
Reboot your phone in recovery mode: while it still plugged in your PC, hold both the power and volume up buttons.
Once TWRP has booted you need to format again your data partition in order to be able to boot in system again. To do so touch Wipe>Format Data and follow the instructions in screen.
Bugs:
Decryption will only work if no password/PIN/pattern is set in Android (One UI).

Hi, gr8 to see TWRP for this device.
If my phone is already rooted, can I just install without data loss?

Brilliant!! Thankz for this. Now bring on custom stuff lol.

Yes, the guide is for those that are starting with an unrooted device. If you already had the old TWRP or have installed a patched vbmeta you can just flash the new recovery.img without any extra steps

New minor build released to mitigate the /data and /efs backup errors. If you're still having issues, try to delete the /sdcard/TWRP folder and reboot again to recovery.

New version works perfect. Thanks!!

I changed to pattern and the same is huppening. If i try to change to nothing it will remove my fingerprints etc.. its not biggy but this could be a solution for me?

Yeap i changed to none and is working now.... i will do a full backup now and then i will put the security on again.
Thx anyway.. a full phone backup was what i was needing.

Unfortunately with the current build you'll have to choose between disabling encryption in your /data partition or remove any kind of lockscreen protection. I'm already working on fixing this issue, found out it's due to gatekeeper not working correctly

I have some bad news: unfortunately decrypt with password/PIN set in lockscreen is not supported in the TWRP itself, so posting a new build with fixed gatekeeper would be useless anyway. As soon as the android-12.1 TWRP branch fixes this issue I'll be posting a new build for the recovery, hoping this issue will be addressed asap

Bugs
1. TWRP cannot decrypt userdata if you set lockscreen. (someone said it works, other it doesn't, so I'll just leave it here, YMMV)
2. Flashing anything shows many "unlock" red lines. (They are currently harmless by our knowledge).
3.USB-OTG
4. Saving settings is fixed but for fixing settings such as theming resetting on reboot is by editing the bootable/recovery/twrp.cc and at line 396 (as of now) changing the bool to true. This makes the recovery load the themes twice. This should only be for encrypted devices but since it has fixed our issue we'll use this workaround until a proper solution has been found.​
Installation
Code:
If you have TWRP or any custom recovery installed and bootable, you can upgrade instead; Look below.
<!> the installation will require WIPING DATA. You will also lose access to all Knox-based solutions like Secure Folder.
Backup every precious data you have on your phone.
<!> PC is required. Windows is preferred. (You probably know what you are doing when using Linux/Heimdall. We don't talk about Macs)
Unlock Bootloader:
1. Go to Settings > About Phone > About Software. Tap build number (10 times) until "you are now a developer" toast shows up.
2. Go back, go to Developer Settings.
3. Turn on OEM unlock toggle.
4. Turn off your phone, hold vol-up + vol-down, then plug in charging cable (please don't use 3rd-party charging-only cable, it must have data transfer capability).
5. Your device will boot into download mode with a warning. Accept it.
6. Hold volume-up until the phone shows the bootloader unlock panel "Unlock Bootloader?".
Press volume-up again. Now your phone bootloader is unlocked.
<!> It will now begin the process of wiping data. Let it do its job.
7. When it reboots to OS, finish setting up your device.
8. Double check to make sure OEM Unlock is still ON.
 
Preparing for the installation:
1. Download everything above onto your PC.
2. Rename OrangeFox recovery img file to recovery.img and add it to archive using any archiver and select gnu tar.
3. Install Samsung USB Driver.
4. Open Odin.
5. Connect your phone to your PC. There should be a COM entry on the top.
6. Make sure your phone is in Download Mode. (see step 4 of section Unlock Bootloader)
7. Make sure that OEM LOCK and REACTIVATION LOCK on your screen show "OFF". If it's not off, DO NOT PROCEED ANY FURTHER.
<!> For those with lock ON, use your device for 7 days without rebooting once. Then check the locks above again.
‎  
 
Installing:
1. Ensure phone is in Download mode.
In Odin:
Load in Userdata: VBMeta_disabler.tar file.
Load in AP: OrangeFox TAR file.
2. Prepare yourself. keep your hand on Volume-up and Power button (don't press yet).
3. In Odin, press Start. It will flash, then reboot. When the screen turned off, quickly press Vol-up and Power button to boot to recovery (this should take about 20~30 seconds).
<!> You should have OrangeFox up and running now.  
 
Post-Installation:
MUST: Trigger Multi-disabler.
1. In OrangeFox, go to Terminal.
2. Type multidisabler, then enter. If it fails with something about vendor free space, run it again.
3. Run multidisabler again.
4. Go to main screen. go to Wipe > Format Data, type yes then swipe.
5. Reboot to Recovery. Now you can do other stuff.
 
Should: Backup all vital partitions:
1. In OrangeFox, go to Backup
2. Backup: EFS, Modem, NVRAM.
Enjoy: Reboot your phone to have a rooted stock, install custom stuff or do whatever you want.
Upgrade:
<!> Use when you already have any custom recovery installed (TWRP, SHRP, PBRP and the likes)
1. Download the recovery image.
2. Copy it to phone, then reboot to OrangeFox (Combo is Power + Volume-up)
3. Go: Install > select recovery.img file > select Recovery
4. Swipe to confirm flashing.
5. If success, reboot to recovery.
<!> You can also use Odin to upgrade, the steps similar to the Install section. All Post-installation, if already done, is unnecessary to do again.

I have tried to talk to various developers about the settings not saving issue. They have no idea. I have myself tried playing around with the tree but nope. So unless someone has a fix for this i have no idea

New Build!
Whats new?
Fixed the settings such as theming resetting on reboot by editing the bootable/recovery/twrp.cc and at line 396 (as of now) changing the bool to true. This makes the recovery load the themes twice. This should only be for encrypted devices but since it has fixed our issue we'll use this workaround until a proper solution has been found.
If you see the recovery trying to decrypt storage dont worry about it. its just because of this. It does nothing.

then use 7zip or winrar or any other archiver and then add to archive. There select tar and compress. I'll include tar files in next builds by default
