Introduction:
---------------------
Team Win Recovery Project 2.X, 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:

Notice:
---------------------
The attached recovery images were compiled from TWRP's open source.
They were only tested on a European version of the HTC-HD2 powered by cLK bootloader.
The performance on devices powered by MAGLDR bootloader should be considered untested (and unpredictable).
Disclaimer:
--------------------- As usual, use at your own risk. TeamWin, arif-ali or kokotas is not responsible for anything bad that may occur from using twrp2.
Nobody appointed me to compile TWRP for HD2. It just happened...
If anyone else is willing to do it and probably do it better I will be glad to step aside,
Key Features:
---------------------
* Ability to save custom recovery settings
* Touchscreen driven with real buttons and drag-to-scroll
* XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout – true theming!
* Settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots
* Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore
* Ability to choose to compress backups – now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)
* Basic file manager (copy, move, delete, and chmod any file)
* OpenRecoveryScript scripting engine
* On-screen keyboard in recovery! -- supports long press, backspace repeat, and swipe left deletes everything left of the cursor
* ADB sideload functionality from AOSP
* Pseudo-terminal emulator
* Ability to backup large partitions (size>4GB) by splitting the backup archive.

Installation:
---------------------
Make sure you have adb and fastboot working. Please don't ask here questions about this - a simple web search will be enough to help you.
Make sure that the size of the 'recovery' partition is enough for the image to fit.
Make sure the name of the recovery *.img file is the one you use in the commands or in flash.cfg
[cLK/MAGLDR] Flashing the zip file from Recovery
Download zip file to your computer and copy to /sdcard.
Reboot phone into recovery.
Select to install the zip file from your /sdcard.
Reboot Phone into recovery as normal.
[cLK/MAGLDR] Flashing the *.img file while booted in Android
Download the recovery file to your computer.
If it is a zip file, extract the *.img.
(Win) Open the folder you have the recovery, do a [Shift+RightClick] and select "Open command window here".
(Lnx) Open the folder you have the recovery, RigthClick and select "Open in Terminal".
[cLK] Flashing the *.img file while in fastboot mode(cLK menu)
Download the recovery file to your computer.
If it is a zip file, extract the *.img.
(Win) Open the folder you have the recovery, do a [Shift+RightClick] and select "Open command window here".
(Lnx) Open the folder you have the recovery, RigthClick and select "Open in Terminal".
[MAGLDR] Flashing the *.img file while in USB Flasher mode(using DAF.exe) WARNING!!! This will erase your current Rom on NAND too!
Download the recovery file to your computer.
If it is a zip file, extract the *.img.
Open the folder you have the recovery and place DAF.exe and flash.cfg in that same folder.
Edit flash.cfg according to required recovery partition size:
Make sure the .img file has the name that flash.cfg specifies!!
i.e. If the *.img file is named recovery-leo.img and min-required-size = 6MB then the flash.cfg could be:
Code:
misc ya 1M
recovery rrecov|ro|nospr 6M recovery-leo.img
boot yboot|ro 5M
system ya 150M
cache ya 2M
userdata ya|asize|hr allsize

Q: Will you be providing support for Rom Manager A: Maybe, when I have time, or if Team View release it before me
Q: Does it work with MAGLDR A: Yes, use AD recovery

Q: Will reboot to Recovery work as normal A: Yes
Q: Does Off-mode charging still work A: Yes, same as CWM on cLK. it will charge when off, but pressing the power button while charging will not turn the phone on

wow very nice new features compared to clockworkmod...
Just installed few minutes ago, as far as I can tell, it seems all is working fine!
I might have a "small" request, is it possible to map the buttons just like in cwm? I didn't like the idea of using the end button that much... :P
