[RECOVERY] TWRP touch recovery v2.8.6.0

dd98 · Jun 12, 2014

Since there has been some confusion about which recovery to use when flashing KitKat and Lollipop ROMs, here is the thread for it.
This is NOT my work, all thanks go to @mdmower

This recovery is REQUIRED for flashing KitKat ROMs and Lollipop ROMs

To install, go to bootloader and type in: fastboot flash recovery (filename).img

Official TWRP (All Hboots) - 2.8.6.0

Unofficial TWRP (All Hboots) - 2.8.5.5

Maybe it is a good thing to put also the changelog in OP. I was wondering what's the difference to the official TWRP builds and others may ask as well. Also state that this is an unofficial TWRP build

Unofficial 2.7.1.0a: Important changes since official 2.7.1.0
- libtar: don’t set parent dir’s context when extracting a file
- HTC LED charging indicator
Unofficial 2.7.1.0a: Known issues and limitations
- This should be fixed with 2.7.1.0, but I have not confirmed: When upgrading from some other maintainers’ TWRP builds, it may be necessary to delete the settings file /sdcard/TWRP/.twrps or TWRP will loop its startup routine at the splash screen.
- Off-mode charging does not display charging images; the LED works though.

From recovery log. Couldn't extract via terminal with /dev/block/platform or cat proc/partitions. So i guess it's same block.

Hi! is this compatible with MaximusHD? After the recovery update, can I backup and restore my MaxHD rom?

It should, but just to be safe make a backup with TWRP 2.6.1.0 that came with Maximus and try to restore with TWRP on this thread, if it doesn't work then flash TWRP 2.6.1.0

Did it work?

nate51 · Jun 29, 2014

I'm on HBOOT 2.16 and recovery 2.7.0.8 I tried flashing the zip file and it's giving me an error "E:Error executing updater binary in zip..." I deleted the .twrps file so not sure whats going wrong in the flash.

It might be my fault, just flash it in fastboot or flash image gui

I tried the flash image GUI but it's not responsive for some reason, I open the app grant SU permission and it just gives me a blank screen. I tried Fastboot but something about Sense 6 does not allow ADB to read my phone anymore, I didn't have the problem when using CM11. Just Sense 6 4.4.2. So flashing in recovery was kind of my last ditch option.

My bad, I just had to update Superuser binary and the GUI app worked, I successfully flashed 2.7.1.0a img. Thanks for the help.

Well known common problem. Make sure to have your ROM zip on internal storage before you wipe system. Or search how to adb sideload.

Hi. Is there any way to make the same TWRP2.7.1.0 for VilleC2?
