There arent many changes from the previous one, but backup restore maybe a bit faster(restored my backup in 2-2.5 min lol) in this one, might be a little more responsive and a few other bugfixes too.
I will not provide anymore updates until the reboot issue gets solved :)

In the meanwhile I have managed to build CM9 for our device from source too :victory:. Atm im using munjenis device tree but i will move over to explorers device tree(with our files of course) soon.

f**k me your a hero :laugh::laugh:
I quite agree with you holding fire on Twerp . It's pretty damn awsome as it is .
And thankyou for CM9 too :victory:
I can't hit thanks as my thankyou spamming has left the bank empty already :(

Re: [Recovery][WIP] TWRP v 2.4.1.0

Great, you're a true hero. Btw about thanks limit, you can actually thanks more than 8x from the android app :p this bug happens when you are on a very slow network like G and it is very helpful.

Recovery Link Updated [18/02/2013]

BugFixes:

=>Partially fixed the power off button recovery freeze bug (Now it takes you into bootloader mode and you can power down from there instead of freezing)
=>Fixed some display issues ( Text exceeding the screen size)

More slimmer recovery than the previous one :) ( Only 4.3 mb compared to the previous 4.83 mb )
So now only the reboot issue remains and i will try my best to fix that too in the future :)

Re: [Recovery][BETA] TWRP v 2.4.1.0

Again,
People get it moved to original android development by your mod, all source built ROMs, kernels,recoveries belong there ;)

Link Updated

Change Log :

=>Build based on the latest TWRP commits
=>Now button highlights itself on key press (Earlier there was no way to find out if you had pressed a button)
=>Removed the Power off button
=>New Option for screen time out in settings
=>Tweaked Brightness levels ie you can find brightness level options in Settings
=>This one I have build directly from the latest htc kernel source rather than from a boot image.
=>Added emmc (internal sd card ) Backup support
=>Fixed some bugs from the last one.

PS : The delay issue seems to be a kernel issue as quoted by Lead TWRP Developer Dees_Troy
Some kernels are very slow to reboot. You can try to find a different kernel or just live with it.

Haha, its fine whoamigriffiths :laugh:

The reboot issue seems to be un fixable atm :( . I have tried building the recovery directly from 8 different kernel sources and also tried several patches but still seem to face this issue. So could anyone with an updated hboot ( ie > 1.28.0000) try this and comment over here :)

Re: [Recovery][BETA] TWRP v 2.4.1.0

Nik, why don't u build first a bugless cwm recovery then continue this teamwin, it will be easier to fix since twr is dependent on cwm. Not sure though.

I have already built CWM 6.0.12 :)
But even on that I am experiencing the same reboot issue. Not sure what is causing this issue :(

Einstein , I also checked CWM 6.0.12 build by mmmfc , that too has this issue. So theres some thing really weird with our Device since we have 3 recoveries built by different guys but all of them have the exact same bug.

    Team Win Recovery v 2.6.0.0


    15mh5s5.jpg


    Team Win Recovery Project 2.4.3.0, 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.

    Code:
    #include 
    /*
     * Your warranty is now void.
     *
     * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
     * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
     * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this Recovery
     * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
     * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
     */

    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 much more

    CHANGELOG for 2.5.0.0:

    Special Note: If you are running a custom theme, you will likely need to remove that theme before updating to 2.5.0.0 as your custom theme will likely not be compatible with the new changes!

    -Added scrollable partition lists for mount, backup, restore, wipe, and storage selection
    -Add new SliderValue GUI element for selecting brightness and screen timeout (thanks to Tassadar)
    -Re-work AOSP and TWRP code to improve license compatibility between GPL and Apache
    -Added official theme for 1080x1920 portrait devices (HTC One m7, HTC DNA, HTC Butterfly, Oppo Find 5, Sony Xperia Z, etc)
    -Fixed a problem with directory permissions on split archive backups (backups usually restored with no app data)
    -Fixed a problem with md5 verification of backups
    -Added a search function to libtar (thanks to kokotas)
    -Improve handling of XML errors (fix permissions)
    -Fixed handling of subpartitions
    -Improvements to recovery.fstab flags
    -Fixed a problem with decryption not being able to locate the decryption key in some situations
    What's new in 2.4.4.0:

    Added another libtar hardlink workaround to fix restore of some backups (usually related to Ubuntu Touch)
    More fixes for the file selector
    Switched from using busybox md5sum to a direct C function call
    Fixed capturing the exit status of tar based backups/restore - TWRP will display that there was an error if there was one again
    Update exFAT to latest commits
    Added a build flag to disable using the ioctl for screen blanking

    CHANGELOG for 2.4.3.0:
    -Fixed 2 bugs related to restore, one dealing with mknod failures (by bigbiff) and one dealing with restoring hardlinks (by Dees_Troy)
    NOTE: If your backups weren't restoring correctly in earlier 2.4.x versions they should restore correctly now. Hopefully you didn't delete those backups. If you're still having problems, run the restore, go to advanced and copy log, then give us the log. Complaints without logs will be rightfully ignored.
    -Added a scroll bar to file selectors and listboxes courtesy of Tassadar
    -Added libblkid for more accurate detection of file systems and can now detect exFAT properly thanks to bigbiff
    -Added a screen dim effect 2 seconds before screen off on some devices
    -Finally fixed file selector crash (one of the joys of working with multi-threaded software)
    -Fixed loading of screen timeout setting during startup
    -Improvements and bugfixes to screen timeout code
    -Fixed persistence of the 24 hour / military time setting

    CHANGELOG for 2.4.2.0:
    -Add screen timeout - screen will turn off automatically after 60 seconds, saves battery and prevents screen burn-in especially on AMOLED devices
    -Add a brightness setting (requires device specific setup and only some devices have been added)
    -Add a root checker and offer to install SuperSU if the device isn't already rooted
    -Add a write buffer to libtar backups, significant improvements to speeds when backing up to exFAT target, minor improvements for other file systems
    -Check and offer to fix root permissions if broken
    -Add an option for a 24 hour clock display instead of AM/PM (aka military time)
    -Move stock recovery reflash check to occur during the reboot cycle
    -Add support for some MTK6xxx devices
    -Change libtar to vfork to help prevent memory problems
    -Add a "clicked" effect to most buttons, file selector, and listbox
    -Improve timezone listbox to be more like file selector (per pixel kinetic scrolling, etc)
    -Remove some no longer used settings (Forced MD5 sum on zips, size checking on image backups)
    -Other minor bugfixes and improvements

    CHANGELOG for 2.4.1.0:
    -Fixed a problem with mkdosfs that formatted sdcards to 2GB
    -Fixed handoff between vfat and exFAT on devices where blkid didn't detect vfat (fixes some issues with mounting sdcards)
    -Fixed problems with changing working directory on MD5 creation/checking that may have prevented unmounting
    -Backups will now store a copy of the backup log after the backup is completed (only if backup is successful)

    CHANGELOG for 2.4.0.0:
    -Using libtar instead of busybox's tar for better control over tar file creation and breaking the 2GB barrier that busybox imposes (thanks to bigbiff)
    -Support for exFAT formatted sdcards (also thanks to bigbiff)
    -Support for decrypting Samsung TouchWiz encrypted devices including internal and external storage (special thanks to a3955269 for figuring it out)
    -Improvements to OpenRecoveryScript including displaying a proper GUI while the script is running
    -Added wipe cache and dalvik after ADB Sideload
    -Replaced many system calls with their native C counterparts
    -Fixed bugs in file manager where it would display an empty list after moving or deleting a folder
    -Fixed AOSP recovery commands to run after decryption on encrypted devices
    -Improvements for building TWRP in CM10.1
    -Other minor bugfixes and improvements
    NOTE: 2.4.0.0 is, as always, still compatible with your older backups!

    CHANGELOG for 2.3.3.0:
    -Fix renaming backups with a space in the name
    -Add decrypt button to mount page if you cancel decryption during startup
    -Added ignore blkid flag
    -Fixed handling of MTD partitions during mount
    -Fixed some keyboard mapping issues on 800x1280 layout

    DOWNLOADS:


    =>Please use the recovery found over Here . All bugs have been fixed by me in this build.

    UnOfficial Update To TWRP

    Hey guys , I have got a lot of pm lately wrt to the latest twrp not being able to flash aroma based roms. Actually its a bug in the latest twrp sources and have been reported over here : https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/135

    So I went ahead and compiled TWRP from an earlier and much more stabler verson of TWRP ie 2.4.2.0

    ChangeLogs

    =>Reboot within recovery is fixed in this.No more reboots when trying to backup! Thanks to nexusprime

    =>All roms flash correctly.
    =>Poweroff button now fuctions properly and all button press delays fixed.
    =>So basically ALL BUGS have been FIXED now :)

    FAQ

    1. What is adb sideload?
    adb side load is a feature in the recovery by which you can flash a rom via adb and you dont have to copy it to your sdcard all the time.
    You can use adb side load by Pressing > Advanced>ADB SIDELOAD and swipe

    Then copy your rom to the folder where you have your adb installed and type

    Code:
    adb sideload romname.zip

    2.How to enable adb while in recovery?
    You can perform basic adb operations like adb pull , adb push etc while in recovery. To enable adb in recovery first you have to use adb sideload as explained above. Then click cancel. Now adb will be enabled.

    1. Download Goo Manager
    2. Install the app.
    3. Open it and click on settings >> Install Open Recovery Script. Then download the recovery via goomanager.

    Wow! Thanks nikhil I was just about to make this recovery myself. :)

    Great job!

    Thanks nikhil, i'm glad you did this! I will test it later for you!

    :D

    Wow, thank you!
    I´m going to test later xP

    No problem guys. But remember its still in alpha stage. So expect some bugs here and there :)

    Link updated. Forgot to add some options in the earlier one :)

    Wooha, it has a handy-dandy file manager as well, no need for aroma file manager!
    I made a backup with compression, it says Backup Complete and under it Failed. I checked in file manager, it is indeed not a full backup.
    I tried again without compression, it says Successful, looks it has all the files. Restore however fails (but at least it doesn't freak you out with rebooting like CWM lol). I attached the logs, maybe they are the same but just in case.
    Mounting-unmounting external/internal USB is fine.

    Other:
    I liked the android animation in CWM, but oh well:)
    I don't know if you can do something about it, or it's like that by default but the fonts look a bit fragmented, as if scaled badly or something. And some color option other than yellow would be nice, or just green or blue, makes me more relaxed when messing with recovery lol. - If I don't ask too much:)
    Also on the info screen while backing up, the text is out of the screen, doesn't affect usability, just saying.

    Question: does it backup kernel as well? because I read CWM even if it's bug-free does not do it, despite that it backups boot.img.

    I will take a look at the issues soon. Try using option of skipping MD5Sum verification while restoring back up.Regular back and restore work flawlessly for me though. You can theme TWRP recovery anyway you want :p . Just need to do some xml editing. I will try to theme it as well , but only after some of the major issues get resolved :).

    PS: If you want I could make an option to flash the kernel without fastboot :D . Check this http://teamw.in/project/htcdumlock . I might implement it in the future :)

    Link Updated Again. Changed Theme to stock blue instead of orange :)
