Not working ???
Please help me test and find out.

To install:

fastboot
download fastboot if you don't have it already and unzip it. Move it to a place on your hard dive that is easy for you to find.
move the "recovery.img" file to that location also. now the fun part.
open a cmd window and navigate to the fold you are using and type or paste.
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Downloads

Fastboot --> Zippyshare.com - fastboot.zip

twrp recovery --> Zippyshare.com - twrp-2.7.0.0-recovery.zip


Flashable::

To use: copy to sdcard. boot to recovery flash like a rom. done. reboot injoy.

twrp-2.7.0.0-recovery-evo-design-flashable.zip

(I tested this by flashing it in clockwork 5.0.2.7 ) ymmv


This uses htc kernel sources (from htcdev) then compiled with selinux.
 
I already have 2.5 what is the difference and is it worth upgrading if so can you put it in a zip please.... And thank you for your work with this phone we don't have many people anymore I personally will say thank you again
 
SELinix is needed to flash kitkat roms or you will just error out. and for right now if you don't see a need to up date then you should not. i am working on kitkat but i am new to all this. so this is all from the ground up for me.

i will see what i can do for a flash zip

Hell yeah! thanks for making this dude, I think I'll flash it soon! hopefully you can get a flash zip working, cause that'd be alot easier to use, especially since I'm on linux, thanks dude!
 
Hey man, should add screenshot functionality. Can get the code from gerrit. Just cherry pick it to your source and build the recovery. Awesome feature to have. Especially for devs and recovery themers.
 
Hey peeps, I know this phone is barely alive these days, but my lovely lady still has it. So I decided to build for her TWRP 2.7.1.0.

I would also like to share it here as well (I have no intentions of opening a thread).

So, here it is.

TWRP 2.7.1.0 for the kingdom

For the device configuration source used to build this TWRP recovery you can find it from this commit on my github: 66a9f53133

Currently ZERO bugs to report at this time.

TWRP 2.7.1.0 built from Omni 4.4 source. It is built ready for SElinux support. Only thing it needs is a custom kernel that supports SElinux, but I don't plan to go that far. I will leave it for someone else to do.

Regarding SElinux, since the kernel is not custom built to support SElinux then one must be provided. Just grab a kernel that does support SElinux, unpack this recovery image, swap out the old with the new kernel, repack back to a recovery.img. Flash, done - Full SElinux Support.

I would have done it myself, but my lady needed TWRP for her device last night so I was real quick on building this for her in just a matter of hours and didn't tackle the kernel source, but it appears the developer of this thread has already handled that for his version 2.7.0.0.

If SElinux is a must for you given any 4.3 and/or 4.4 roms then don't use it unless you swap the kernel.

The source on my github is ready for building twrp. If you know how to build from source, just fork my repo to your github and have at it :-).

I don't own this device anymore lol, in fact my old lady uses it, but since yesterday she has had me wanting to look in to some development work for her. So as that may or may not progress down the road based upon her request to me, I may or may not be providing some dev support on here. Meanwhile, I'm just gonna be floating around here like a ghost. :-)
