I have the same issue you do . I haven't been able to successfully restore a backup yet. (And no, I don't compress my backups ) . Also, my backups are on internal SD (since my phone doesn't see my 32gb SD card)
As far as I've seen , there are a lot of people having the same issue we are with all recoveries .

Loving TWRP, but this issue made me change it to Philz ATM.

I feel that there is some issue effecting some devices. Can those with issues confirm s-off or not so we can begin to eliminate possible issues causing this. Also confirm if using Int/Ext SD for backups/restores?

Thanks -- I can confirm S-OFF on mine. Just to be clear, here's what I've got from the boot loader:


*** UNLOCKED ***
M8_WLV PVT SHIP S-OFF
CID-VZW__001
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-0.89.20.0321
OpenDSP-v38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Apr 1 2014,00:26:53.0

I have tried this with and without an external SD card.

EDIT: I flashed PhilZ Touch 6.27.5 using Flashify and it just did a backup without issue.

yeah I have S-off and, when I get my phone all set-up the way I like it, I do a back-up, but it wont boot all the way with that back up restored, but I have a back-up that just the stock rom with root that`s it, no frozen apps or anything and it boots fine. has me puzzled why this acting this way.:confused:

If you had read the last few pages you would know some ppl have problems with back ups that they are corrupted or also restoring always fails...try another recovery

+1 for the same issue a lot of others seem to be having. After trying to restore my first, stock rooted backup it would not boot past the HTC logo. I'm s-off, used external SD, no compression.

Will upload 2.7.0.4 later today when I get home from work. All backups restore fine and have had no known issues.

Phone: T-Mobile HTC M8 Rooted/SuperCID/S-Off
ROM: Latest Cyanogen
Recovery: Lates TWRP
The latest available from the TWRP site is still 2.7.0.2.
Are you sure you're not actually running JMZ's unofficial build which is actually 2.7.0.2?

Please make file manager text size some big so choosing file some more accurate

First, you're in the thread for the HTC One M8, not the One S that you have.
Next, the correct place to post such requests is on the TWRP GitHub Issues log.
Finally, you may want to watch this enhancement specifically: Add FreeType font support #142.

I'm pretty sure it's TWRP 2.7.0.4 and its in another thread for HTC M8.

Yeah, that's the one I'm referring to which is actually functionally identical to the 2.7.0.2 here as explained in the 2nd link I gave which is a post earlier in this very thread.

Hi,

someone has a changelog for the new version?

regards

starbase64

It's common courtesy to not ask. Especially when it's already been said.

When DT updates the OP, it will be there. However, if you're feeling impatient - here you go.

What's new in 2.7.1.0:

-Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. This option should make it a little easier to migrate a device from ext4 -> f2fs, for instance. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button. If a developer has added f2fs support for your device and we don't have it in TWRP, please contact me via PM to arrange for it to be added.
-Various bugfixes to backup and restore
-Improvements to USB storage handling
-Added a class to search for files to make finding the correct brightness file automatic in most cases
-Various other bugfixes and tweaks

    Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its 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.




    CHANGELOG for 3.0.2-0:

    -Backups will now include adopted storage keys (Dees_Troy)
    -Fixed an adb restore issue (bigbiff)
    -Fixed rebooting when no OS is present (Dees_Troy)
    -Fixed line wrapping in the GUI terminal (_that)
    -Updated TWRP source code to AOSP 7.1.2 (Dees_Troy)


    CHANGELOG for 3.1.0-0:

    -vold decrypt on a few select HTC devices, TWRP will now attempt to use the system partition's vold and vdc binaries and libraries to decrypt the data partition (nkk71 and CaptainThrowback)
    -adb backup to stream a backup directly to or from your PC, see documentation here: https://github.com/omnirom/android_bootable_recovery/commit/ce8f83c48d200106ff61ad530c863b15c16949d9 (bigbiff)
    -tweak MTP startup routines (mdmower)
    -support new Android 7.x xattrs for backup and restore to fix loss of data after a restore (Dees_Troy)
    -support POSIX file capabilities backup and restore to fix VoLTE on HTC devices and possibly other issues (Dees_Troy)
    -better indicate to users that internal storage is not backed up (Dees_Troy)
    -improve automatic determination of TW_THEME (mdmower)
    -minimal getcap and setcap support (_that)
    -try mounting both ext4 and f2fs during decrypt (jcadduono and Dees_Troy)
    -shut off backlight with power key (mdmower)
    -timeout during FDE decrypt (Dees_Troy and nkk71)
    -support for FBE decrypt and backing up and restoring FBE policies (Dees_Troy)
    -boot slot support (Dees_Troy)
    -TWRP app install prompt during reboot (Dees_Troy)
    -support for AB OTA zips (Dees_Troy)
    -support new Android 7.x log command (Dees_Troy)
    -update recovery sources to AOSP 7.1 (Dees_Troy)
    -numerous bugfixes and improvements by too many people to mention

    CHANGELOG for 3.0.2-0:

    -Fix a bug with the input box that affected masked inputs (passwords). This fixes decrypt of full device encryption on devices that support decrypt. This bug also impacts encrypted backups. Users are highly encouraged to stop using 3.0.1 if you use encrypted backups or if you need decrypt of data in TWRP.
    -Add Greek translation to some builds.

    CHANGELOG for 3.0.1-0:

    -support new CM 13.0 pattern encryption (sultanqasim)
    -fix slow flashing issue due to modprobe (present on only some devices) (#twrp)
    -libtar updated to latest upstream and fixes (jcadduono)
    -fixes for loading custom themes (_that)
    -TWRP will now detect and install TWRP themes automatically through the normal zip install process (Dees_Troy)
    -translation updates - added Italian, Czech and Polish and significant updates to Dutch
    -progress bar improvements - progress bar updates during image flashing and better tracks progress during file system backups (tar) (Dees_Troy)
    -fix input box text display (Dees_Troy)
    -reboot option after zip install complete (bigbiff)
    -other mostly invisible bug fixes and improvements

    CHANGELOG for 3.0.0-0:

    -Completely new theme - Much more modern and much nicer looking (by z31s1g)
    -True Terminal Emulator - Includes arrow keys, tab and tab completion, etc. (by _that)
    -Language translation - It won’t be perfect and especially some languages that require large font files like Chinese & Japanese won’t be availble on most devices. Also some languages may only be partially translated at this time. Feel free to submit more translations to OmniROM’s Gerrit. (mostly by Dees_Troy)
    -Flashing of sparse images - On select devices you will be able to flash some parts of factory images via the TWRP GUI (by HashBang173)
    -Adopted storage support for select devices - TWRP can now decrypt adopted storage partitions from Marshmallow
    -Reworked graphics to bring us more up to date with AOSP - includes support for adf and drm graphics (by Dees_Troy)
    -SuperSU prompt will no longer display if a Marshmallow ROM is installed
    -Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)
    -Update AOSP base to 6.0
    -A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks

    WARNING: This is our first release in a long time. We have a lot of new and somewhat aggressive changes in this new release. The changes to the graphics back-end may cause some devices to not boot up properly or have other display-related issues. If you are not in a position to reflash an older build of TWRP, then wait until you are or at least wait until others have tried the new version for your specific device. You don’t want to end up with a non-working recovery and have to wait several hours or days to get to a computer to be able to fix it.

    Notes for themers: In addition to the udpated theme, we have introduced a theme version variable to the TWRP theme system. If the theme version does not match the version that TWRP expects, TWRP will reject the custom theme and load its stock theme. This change will ensure that people who update TWRP without updating their theme will still have a workable recovery. We have removed libjpeg support. The stock theme was only using a jpeg image for the splash / curtain. This change means that any custom themes will no longer be able to use jpeg images. It also means that tools used to repack recovery images with a different curtain / splash will need to be updated to use the new method.

    Version number notes: For a while we’ve been using a 4 digit version number and reserved the 4th digit for device-specific updates. For instance, we find and fix a device-specific issue like decryption of data on Nexus 5, we would release that as a 2.8.7.1. After a while, some people would start asking where 2.8.7.1 was for other devices. So, going forward we have decided to change the numbering scheme to 3.0.0-2, etc. Our hope is that this version numbering scheme will more clearly identify that the 4th digit does not indicate a version change for the code base.

    We need your help! The bulk of TWRP work is done by 3 people on a volunteer basis. We have pushed most of our device files to our github and we have a gerrit instance. If you have the ability, please help us maintain our official devices and/or add your device to our official device list. Thanks in advance!

    1) Install the TWRP app from the Play Store or grab the apk from our website
    2) Open the app, agree to the terms, and enable root access
    3) Select TWRP Flash
    4) Search for your device and select the version you wish to download
    5) Once the download is complete, select the file (it's usually in your downloads folder) and then Flash Recovery

    Most devices can be updated quickly and easily within TWRP if you already have version 2.8.4.0 or higher installed
    1) Download the latest version from our website on your device
    2) Reboot to TWRP

    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 40 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!

    Would be great if this could be fixed in official version.

    Haven't had an update in here for a while.

    Hopefully with the next official version of TWRP, all decryption methods (yes, this includes stock Sense) will be supported! @nkk71 is still putting the finishing touches on the patch, and it has to be reviewed by the TWRP team, but if all goes well, the support will be included. I'm not sure how many people are still using stock Sense on this device, but I figure it'll be nice to have the support anyway :).

    TWRP 3.0.0.0 for the M8 is up and can be found here!
