Root [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.8.1.0

whoshotjr2006

Android Enthusiast
UPDATE: This is will be the final KitKat version of twrp unless something big pops up that needs fixed. It is fully working as far as I can tell. The zv4 no radio issue was a fluke, one most likely caused by Archikitchen since zv5 works just fine with twrp. Once cm12 is good, we will get a new version that is in line with lollipop.

disclaimer: what you do with what I provide is your responsibility. if what I made messes up your phone, its on you not on me. So with that said, I will do what I can to help you recover, but its ultimately your fault if something breaks.

Flash this just like you flash clockworkmod recovery.

fastboot flash recovery recovery_bumped.img

Or use flashify, that should work too.

After first boot, just use an app inside android to reboot to recovery, I personally use APM+ and xposed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/advanced-power-menu-apm-t2842792

The next sources were very heavily based off of Quarx's, Shinobisofts' and Zaaap's work for similar devices on github. Find them somewhere and buy em a beer if you like what you see!

And finally, the TWRP Volt v2 download here:

or

for those that have problems with mediafire.

Find something wrong? send me bug reports. Just post em up in this thread. Good ones are dmesg and adb logs.

Great work, if you dont mind I can upload to github.

glad to see you still here and sure no problem, i am going to be working on getting cm11 booting now that we have twrp and a device tree, so things are gonna change somewhat with the device files, but ill keep you updated. i got frustrated with omni source over the caf-new drivers so i think cm will be the way to go for now.

Backup/restore work no problem.
So nice to have touch recovery!

isnt it though? lol i was happy as a clam when it booted for me, thank you for testing backup and restore, i really appreciate it!
 
I have a small issue..
I flashed the updated stock ROM after wiping everything except internal and SD.
It boots fine but my phone says service disconnected and a x on signal bars. I tried twice and same result...i tried the different dialer codes to reset and all that would happen is a reboot. Still no network connection. it is the same zip I used with cwm and I had no issues...
Restoring my backup works fine and all is good now.
Let me know if there is something I can try or log for you.

thats odd. im not sure what in twrp would make the radio not come up in a normal rom boot. did you flash the updated radio zip that donjuro posted, or just the rom zip? im downloading cm11 source right now, so my internet is slow, if you could pull the updater-script out of /META-INF/com/google/android/ in the rom zip and post it that would help me see if its set up to flash the radio or anything.

also, see what the output of this is:

logcat -v time -b radio -d

thats just a regular radio log and if you get an output from it, that tells us your binaries in the rom zip are working to bring up radio.

i looked at zaaap's device tree for the d620 and he has a few more things in his twrp.fstab than i do in ours, he defines a radio/modem mountpoint that i didnt, but im not sure if twrp even needs that. so maybe that could be it? once i get my source all set up again I can tweak twrp.fstab, recompile, post it and we can see what happens.

thanks for letting me know, and hopefully we can figure this out.

Did you try ##72786# ?
 
No edit button here... Driving me nuts.. I reflashed the ROM and then flashed the radio.zip as well still no change.
Tried the ##72786# and same results.
The radio log is above.

Has anyone else tried to flash a ROM?

i found these:
01-02 13:00:03.479 D/TelephonyManager( 302): No /proc/cmdline exception=java.io.FileNotFoundException: /proc/cmdline: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)
01-02 13:00:17.039 E/LGUICC ( 1486): [LGUiccManager] getProperty: fail to get service
01-02 13:00:13.449 E/use-Rlog/RLOG-RILD( 300): ***************QCCI VSS COMMON Init Failed****************

in the radio log, and also a lot of null properties. something is going on, but i have no clue what. you said when you restore a rom through recovery radio works though? lol im really stumped, i havnt flashed anything with twrp yet as ive been working on school projects and cm source, im afraid this is above my head. if anyone else knows the answer please do tell.

I've restored a backup 4 or 5 times now and haven't had a single hiccup.
 
i have cwm now will i need to flash this to be able to flash cm11 when it becomes available or will cwm work ?

Also can I flash this using sammyz laf recovery tool?

cwm should work if we get cm11. also, im pretty sure you could use sammyz laf recovery tool, just take the twrp download recovery_bumped.img and rename it recovery.img. then put it into the folder where cwm was for sammyz tool.
