[RECOVERY][P6S-U06][Unofficial TWRP Recovery 3.0.3-0]

Hi everyone.
Here's my build of TWRP for P6S-U06.
Features:
Supports USB OTG, so you can use USB flash drive as external storage for backups, zip installations.
Because device doesn't support external SD card, I've added feature to make backup of internal storage (to USB flash of course).
Combined with stock EMUI 3.1 recovery. In case of power-on by holding power + vol+ or rebooting into recovery by command or any 3rd part application: will boot in TWRP. In case of local update, OTA-update, "force update" (3buttons method) or factory reset: will boot into EMUI recovery.
Off-mode charger updated from EMUI 3.1
custom.bin and cust symlinks are saved/restored (if they were exist) in case of Wipe/Format Data. So there not gonna be "cust" issues after factory reset in TWRP.
Requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Android 4.4.2 - 5.1.1
Installation:
Reboot in fastboot mode
Flash image via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_Recovery-3.0.3-0.img
fastboot reboot
From TWRP: Press "Install" and select zip-archive
Notes:
Because internal storage is not a separate block device and just a subfolder of "userdata" partition, before you can make backup/restore of internal storage, first you should do Mount -> Data.
It will not work on P6, it's for P6S only.

No, it will not boot.

THANK YOU !!!
Tell you my story : a week ago i bought a P6S-U06 from aliexpress. It came with the 4.2 system. Interesting was that there was no update , not by wifi nor by Hisuite.
And i wanted to update to 4.4 And i try all kind of recoveries and boot.img untill i bricked it.... Actually i got the bootloader locked and i can not flash anytrhing anymore.....
Now i bought a second P6S-U06 that came with 4.4 . Thanks to your twrp, now i have twrp on my phone.
Please help me also with a nice kernel and a nice rom. I found some stuff on 4pda forum but i do not know russian and i cannot make an account to download .
If you do not want to post here, please send them in privat.
Once again , THANK YOU !!!
My phone is now TWRP with P6S-U06V100R001C17B606 .

Hi .I have 2 P6S-U06 . Both of them 4.4.2 In one of them i flashed thru fastboot and twrp works perfect.
The other one simply does not accept that. see attached picture .
I forced it installing Flashify . I wrote the recovery with it. After reboot, the leds start blicking red and green and after that a screen appears saying something happened sith my boot, press power button for 6 seconds. I turn off the phone , restart it, it boots to system but stock recovery...
How is this possible ?
WHat can i do ?
Also is there a 5.1.1 image that can be updated as update.app in dload folder ?

TWRP changelog : Here
Working/Bugs : Lemme knoe if anything broken
Please do read the installation guide note !
IMPORTANT NOTE :
1. At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda
2. Encryption is enabled by default
3. If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data
Installation Guide :
1. Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
2. Reboot to bootloader
3. fastboot flash recovery twrp-xxxx.img (if you want permanent flash) or
fastboot boot twrp-xxxx.img (if you want temporary boot)

You can use it for N or O. No issues.

It says encryption is enabled!
Does that mean the problem where in the custom recovery couldn't mount anything when the device was encrypted, is solved with this??
Earlier I did need to do a factory reset from the stock recovery and then do anything on TWRP.

Oreo roms always says Encrypted but I've never noticed true encryption.

No not this one! I am talking about the situation when i encrypt the phone! Once the phone is encrypted the custom recovery fails to read /data.. which leads to no flashing or anything else, until i factory reset the device via stock recovery!
I will try it out anyway!

Thanks brother! I can confirm it works perfectly on device protected with encryption !!

Sorry i couldn't understand the first important note. Will i lose data if i allow system modifications? As far as i remembered this option also shows on previous versions and ive always given permission to modify. Is this the same?

Unless you do anything to system (for eg :wipe) allowing system modifications will not harm.

The official version can't use some Motorola configurations because their politics. TWRP unofficial can use that configurations, allowing to decrypt and encrypt /data. In summary, unofficial is better.

I think I can't format /data with F2FS. The option doesn't appear in TWRP.

Not sure if I understood the instructions at twrp.me right:
I have the 5.1.1 stock ROM already rooted and with TWRP 2.8.7.0 (XZ Dual Recovery).
Can I simply flash the recovery from twrp.me, or will it break my phone?
Or do I need to repack the kernel (see section 5 here)?

no repacking, the image goes to the FOTA partition

To all: Please test first official build, based on new device tree(android-7.1) - http://build.twrp.me/twrp-3.2.1-0-odin.img (not compatible with android 5.0.2/5.1.1)

Doesn't work. I assume it's because the stock kernel does not support a recovery on the FOTA partition.

"Doesn't work. " is not a valid reply to what I posted. In fact the fota recovery will override the recovery built into the rom.

I flashed TWRP 3.2.1 to the FOTA partitition, but after i reboot into recovery, I still end up with TWRP 2.8.7 that was installed before.
Please note that TWRP 2.8.7 is not the "normal" TWRP, but part of XZ Dual Recovery, that unfortunately is no longer updated.
UPDATE:
When I use the hardware keys to enter recovery, I get a blank screen. (3.2.1 really seems to not be compatible with Android 5.1.1. )
When I use the small app that comes with the XZDualRecovery to boot into recovery, I end up with 2.8.7
So FOTA seems to work, but TWRP 3.2.1 is not compatible with my old ROM....

Need a little advice.
Hello my friends!
My phone: Xperia ZL C6503.
I used to have stock 5.1.1 in my phone, but thanks to this forum I have managed to flash the RR O v6.0.0. Everything is working fine, just have a question for you guys: Can I flash the latest TWRP now the I'm using Android 8.1.0? And if I want to flash my stock rom again in the future, will I have any problem with the updated TWRP?
Any help will be much appreciated!

INSTALLATION:
0. Backup your ROM, your data, your internal storage, and your settings/apps, to an external device
1. Download the Pitchblack zip file to your device
2. Reboot to your custom TWRP-based Recovery
3. Install the PitchBlack zip file as a normal zip
4. Reboot to recovery after installation
5. Enjoy!
What different?
It can decrypt encrypted /data (asked password for decryption)
Fixed "wrapped key" error flag shown on console
Notes:
It can be installed on willow (theoretically), so I need more tester for willow (because I don't have the device).

Backup in Recovery (PitchBlack, ...) could still gzip the image, which would save a lot of space (and wouldn't break dm-verity) ...

Excellent work. I'm with Willow and it works great. It also works with Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip mod, because with twrp-3.4.0-0-ginkgo, I had problems. Everything is fine here. I have only one remark, some lines from the menu are in very small font and I can't read them. Please correct this.

what is the full list of partition that can PitchBlack make a recovery image ???

Bugs:​- Decryption not working
Install Instructions:​- Update to Android 10 (it will probably boot on Android 9 firmware, but it wasn't tested).
- Make sure your bootloader is unlocked. If not, unlock it first. Check out the "Unlocking the bootloader" section of this post.
- Reboot to bootloader
- Execute:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
- Or to boot directly without flashing:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
- Boot using power, volume down and volume up pressed simultaneously.
Note: Stock ROM will keep replacing the recovery with it's own recovery. You need to boot to recovery right after flashing it. Booting to stock ROM after flashing may cause it to replace TWRP with the stock recovery. So either find and remove the script responsible for this, flash a GSI or just wait for custom ROMs.

OMFG. nice
will test here soon. I'm glad to see some activity with this tablet. Its a very capable tablet if all the hardware would work right with gsi. Debloated its great though.
Will report back in a bit to see if it works on my ytx705f.
UPDATE: Can confirm, Works except decryption. Good job dude.

Thanks for this twrp. Am happy finally, Someone made twrp for this device.

Hi, I have used this twrp in my YT-705X and installed descendent gsi. It's working without any issues. Thanks for your work.

That's not a big deal for me. I use my tab for only media streaming and has sd card for my documents and other works. And I'm happy as long as I am enjoying latest Android flavour on my tab. Your TWRP eased the procedure for me in using gsi and I'm happy about it.

thanks for this and the github link. I want to port TWRP to my device, a Lenovo Yoga Tab 11 (YT-J706F) what are the steps you did to port twrp from the lenovo stock files?.
To be honest I think it's a bit different because it looks like my device doesn't have a recovery partition / img only a ramdisk.

The first step is to get the kernel image from stock ROM. It should be in zImage format (search for mkbootimg tool). Place it in the "prebuilt" directory of the device tree as "Image.gz-dtb". Then take the dtbo.img from stock ROM and place it in the "prebuitlt" directory as well. These are the minimal changes to get it booting... you might also have a look at libraries in "rootdir" and replace them later.

Update
Download
Updated kernel and dtbo images from YT_X705F_S001137_220721_ROW.

You're already in fastboot mode. You just have some weird firmware installed, which for some reason has tux as the fastboot logo. It happened to me too.
