it may appear to hang on the twrp curtain, let it boot there is nothing wrong here

Do you want a flashable zip? Also if I make you a bootloader upgrade with this TWRP built in would you be able to test it as I don't have access to the machine any more?

I am going to make a flashable zip.... :good:

Try this one first mate. I made this the other day for das chaos but he bricked his machine before he could test it.

Link removed for now.

This is the bootloader upgrade and twrp 2.8.4.0 and the partition table setup. If this works then it will be simple for me to make one using your file above.

The best way to test this is to use my downgrade zip to go back to 4.1.1 and then try this to upgrade.

No one else test this please unless you know what you are doing and have nvflash backups. I don't like uploading things I haven't tested myself but have no other option here.

zip flashed just fine ....

Rebooted TWRP ......

Blue bar filled to about 85% ......

Tablet did what can only be called a soft reboot ....

As in did not power all the way off, just flashed back to the bootloader screen with 'THIS DEVICE IS UNLOCKED'

But now the blue bar was gone .... It did boot into 2.8.4.0 TWRP and could not mount anything ...

A simple reboot back into TWRP and all is good ....

I am now on your WW bootloader flashed my kang TWRP and installed zombi-pop ....

Life is good ......

Thx Josh

This is fantastic for users of rom/data2SD!

Question about that, however: Will this have an option to automatically flash zips to romSD/dataSD, or will we still have to use the ROM2SD/DATA2SD zips when not flashing something that already has a script for it?

Well if it is built into the ROM as it is for zombi and crombi then ....

There will be no need for the extra zips .... I am still trying to think how we can ....

Support other ROMS easily, but this is going to take some doing ..... Stay turned ..... :good:

I'm testing DATA2SD on a non-supported ROM (Katkiss LP with Grimlock 300t/201 kernel) and so far with this recovery and the DATA2SD zip it seems to be working fine. This looks pretty promising

I can confirm that this works thanks to Josh's help/instruction on doing it. He is an awesome & great teacher as I learned so much from him.

GREAT RECOVERY! Thanks again Josh! :good:

Thanks! I'm testing 2.8.5.1 with ZOMBi-POP

Is there any way to change partition sizes from this recovery? I can't find it

No there is not yet, I am looking into making this happen...

Not sure if it will ever happen as I think I would also have to let users partition the internal storage also ...

I dont know if I am ready for the storm of bricks that may bring ....

Maybe choosing among some predefined templates would do the trick for most users. But yes, it can be potentially problematic hehe

Thanks!

Img vs. blob

@lj50036 - Hi Josh, a stupid question - what´s the difference between img and blob file regarding recovery??? Did they flash the same via fastboot? And why did you switched from blob to img? Just asking, to learn something new.
Thx in advance

It is not a .img it is still a blob, but when I build it the process outputs a recovery.img

Even thought its a blob ....

if you would like to learn about blobs check this out by @_that

So, the name, including file format, actually doesn´t matter as the output is done right? As the file will be just pushed to recovery partition? Or should it be renamed to foo.blob???
