I figured I'd waited long enough for the update via Goo app... apparently not. I'll try it now.

Actually the update was pushed yesterday, so goo manager will now install the latest version 2.1.1. This should fix the touchscreen issues and a rare issue where you may have gotten "stuck" in recovery. Also adds a new stock theme courtesy of racks11479! :)

Touchscreen issues have returned with this latest build, (2.1.1) for me it's only when you try to multitouch the screen though. Nothing but physical buttons respond after that point.

Can anyone else who had touchscreen issues before provide feedback? This should be working the same as the test versions..... I can't replicate this, my touchscreen seems to work with any of the kernels we use.

Hey love the Recovery (using most up to date version). The only thing is for some reason my Nook is now always booting into the Recovery. I can get into a normal boot but have to always go thru the reboot function inside recovery.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Do you have access to adb? If so, can you try running this command in an adb shell while in recovery?

Code:
# ./sbin/runatboot.sh

See if it post any errors about /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 being read only. And if so, can you pull the recovery.log and post it here?

Code:
adb pull /tmp/recovery.log

Thanks,
Racks

I'm still having freezing issues. What's weird is that the unlock screen works during the freeze.

Trying...

Here's something to try.

twrp-2.1-nc-2012-05-17-fullofbugs.tar.gz

Update: use the one in the next post instead.

It defaults to internal SD (/emmc) but once you manually change it ("Mount"->"Using External SD") it should remember it on the next boot.

No helpful anything, it's just a uRecRam. Try at your own risk.

Download and flash in CWM.

Important note -- when you perform a backup, it may allow you to continue before actually completing the backup. Be sure to see the 'backup complete' message on the progress log before pressing the 'return to menu' button.

@Puddynose
Flash CWM from Rom Manager.

Goo Manager did not install this for me as per the instructions:
"Tap menu then hit Install OpenRecoveryScript. Tap Yes. Verify that the filename displays your device's code name and hit Yes. The file will download and your device will reboot and install the recovery automatically."

I had to choose Install, manually browse to /sdcard/goomanager and manually flash the .zip that was downloaded.

Just an FYI to anyone who upon reboot only sees 2.1.0.

Thank you for this recovery. I have tested the followings and everything works as expected.

- flashing CM7 ROM and kernel (MiRaGe)
- mounting USB
- backup/restore

This is such a nice looking, easy to use recovery with so many features. Just one suggestion: if you could supply a flashable zip file it would be easier to users. I used a flashable zip myself.

Kudos to Team Win!

    Team Win Recovery Project 2.3, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

    Phone look:


    Tablet look:


    CHANGELOG for 2.3.1.0:
    -Unmount system after boot to prevent some status 7 symlink failed errors on zip install
    -USB Mass Storage code improvements
    -Better handling of mounting storage during boot for some devices
    -Fixed a problem with sizes of images (boot & recovery) after resetting defaults
    -Fixed size errors during backup for some devices on recovery, etc.
    -Fixed a problem with restoring backups when multiple archives were present

    CHANGELOG for 2.3.0.0:
    -Rebased onto AOSP Jelly Bean source code
    -Rewrote backup, restore, wipe, and mount code in C++ classes for easier maintenance going forward
    NOTE: backups from prior versions of TWRP are still compatible with 2.3
    -ADB sideload functionality from AOSP is included in 2.3, see this link for more info
    -Re-wrote fix permissions entirely in C++ and runs in a few seconds instead of a few minutes (thanks to bigbiff)
    -Improvements to zip finding in OpenRecoveryScript (should be a lot fewer GooManager automation issues)
    -Faster boot times
    -Added charging indicator while in recovery (only updates once every 60 seconds)

    While this update may not bring a host of new must-have features, this update is a significant re-write of much of the core TWRP code. AOSP Jelly Bean recovery source moved to mostly C++ code and now all of the "TWRP" code is fully rewritten into C++ as well. Now that we've laid this groundwork, we're in a much better position to pull in future AOSP recovery updates as well as implementing more great new features.

    Since TWRP 2.3 is based on AOSP jelly bean sources, TWRP now uses recovery API 3 instead of 2. Some zips may no longer work if the developer is using an out-of-date update-binary. This API change should not be a problem on newer devices, but older devices will probably encounter several zips that need to be updated. If needed, you can try using this update-binary that was compiled with current sources. It goes in your zip file in the META-INF/com/google/android folder.

    DOWNLOAD:
    The fastest and easiest way to install TWRP is to use the GooManager app
    For downloads and instructions please visit our TWRP website and choose your device in the dropdown menu

    BUGS:
    If you have found a bug, please consider posting it to our github issues log. It's pretty much impossible for us to keep up with the more than 30 threads that we have for the devices that we "directly" support. If you have a significant problem that cannot be answered in this thread, your best bet is to PM me directly, contact us via our website, or find us in our IRC channel below. If you see someone that's struggling, feel free to point it out to us. We need your help to help us keep track of all of our devices! Thanks!

    SUPPORT:
    Live support is available via #twrp on Freenode with your IRC client or just click this link.
