INTRODUCTION:

Hey guys! I'll keep updating this thread with the lastest news from developer kbzona, responsible for making this port for our beloved P500. Team Win Recovery Project 2.0, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. 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.


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)
  • And many more!...


KNOWN ISSUES:

  • Testing Phase
  • USB Storage is not working yet.
  • Wiping of Data is not working.
  • Invalid or corrupt zip files will crash or hang recovery (AOSP issue)
  • Zip files that install more data than free space is available will crash or hang recovery (AOSP issue)


SPECIAL SHOUT OUTS:

  • kbzona - for his wonderful port for our P500
  • TWRP2 Development Team - agrabren, Dees_Troy, ViViDboarder, AssassinsLament
  • Toastcfh - for his underappreciated dedication to the community
  • s0up, kevank - for their hard work on the web side of things.
  • Amon_RA - for his great Recovery
  • Koush - for his dedication to the community and ClockworkMod
  • For all the help with devices and testing - Akmzero, arif-ali, Evil_DevNull, gus6464, Jesusice, Pyrostic, [R], Rootzwiki
  • The rest of Team Win - shift, onicrom, netarchy, kevank, myndwire, bigbiff, dkelle4, shinzul, spiicytuna, and eyeballer

Who knows a bug may happen, such as you touch one button but it wasn't the one you intended and for the confirmations, you know some users don't read them/ignore them or just used to keep on touching and oh noes.....

Lol, well yeah, it can happen, anyway physical keys are also not free from accidents, users can accidentaly press a key twice and bum!, formated something he didnt wanted to..... So yeah either using touch screen or physical keys you're still not free of an accidental action....

What would be the best is to have access to both touch and physical keys... @MakTail: seems you have some contact with TWRP dev, maybe you could tell him this suggestion and see if he can implement it

And i still prefer having a touch interface, in case something happens to the menu key :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Words from kbzona himself:

1) No ETA's yet.
2) Yes it's going to have multi-rom
2) I really don't know about this physical buttons, since all UI code was rewritten and revamped i really dont know if there's still support for both physical buttons and touch in the GUI build, anyway still i will be able to build a non-GUI version of TWRP 2.0 for those who wants the lastest TWRP but with old interface... (I'll talk to a TeamWin dev to see if GUI version (since GUI code is closed souce unfortunately) still has physical key support so maybe i can make a dual interface that is changeable on the fly).

I have SGS today and I miss TWRP.
SGS is very popular, but there is only ClockworkMod recovery and it's, comparing to TWRP, terrible.

First post updated with a small video showing off all features available on TWRP 2.0.
It's not from our phone, but everything you see there will be exactly the same (plus MultiROM).

Official news:

- Source wont be available till post new year, so multi-rom and other additional custom features (listed below) wont be available until then...
- Recovery maintains it's code for physical keys, so a switch to enable them would be perfectly doable...
- TeamWin is trying to compile a testing version cuz the lastest code commits screwed booting on O1, now we are in the process to see which of the lastest commits is guilty...

So we will have a working test version ASAP

Port news (After source is released):

° Many features from RZRecovery will be added:
- Recovery overclock (potentially increase backup/restoring times)
- Plugin support (This is, ability to run custom shell scripts)
- Others i dont remember right now but i consider useful
