TWRP Recovery?

[Guest Ianis G. Vasilev]

Okay, first - I won't even try doing this because I just bricked a phone and if I brick this one I won't forgive myself.

Many of you probably don't know what TWRP recovery is. For those - please search it, the project site doesn't give a good description and the features in the recovery include custom settings for standard directory, verification and md5 sum options, visual themes, batch zip installation and more...)

I know we have CWM and AmonRa, but the features of TWRP recovery makes it unique, so I hope some of our devs will try to make a port (official TWRP support is hard to get...)

first of I'll try to build touch recovery, then maybe that one.. but remember that recovery is not mine first priority.

[Guest Ianis G. Vasilev]

I'll be glad to test whenever you decide to release something.

By the way, TWRP 2.0 is also a touch recovery.

I seems starting to get why they don't have much devices.. there are no instructions to build their recovery :P

it is represented like koush's one but something strange happens when trying to replace his source over cm..

[Guest Ianis G. Vasilev]

I couldn't find a way to contact the developer responsible for the unofficial LG P500 port of the recovery, so I'll see what I can find.

For now having only problems with nandroid..it is just don't want to work.

Poll is useless.

That recovery just doesn't matches our partition table, that setups recovery size thresold about 5 mb,

backup problems are about userdebug build type, that contains incomplete recovery implementation. for complete one I have to use eng type that exceeds 5mb thresold..

EDIT:

Busybox on it just HUGE. if I shorten it with for example MIUI one, I could flash recovery again... but nothing happens! It still can't backup anything, also rom installing is not working (even with .md5 file).

So I'm giving up on building 1.1.1. Maybe I will have more luck with 2.0.

eh.. was so happy with acid-like themes :D
