[ROM] Evervolv | 3.2.0p1 [AOSP]

preludedrew · May 18, 2014

In preparation for the next build. I've got a new recovery for ya'all. The latest twrp recovery was using the old 2.6 kernel. This is completely updated for newer roms ( 4.0+), but should still allow older roms to be flashed. This is going to be needed because we'll be adding SELinux support. Please let me know if there are any issues with other roms and I'll look into submitting this for official status. So far my testing has concluded with no issues

TWRP 2.7.0.0 --

I'll be adding a zip to run, that will fix some other issues with ext4 partitions. Need to finish testing it though.

Lemme know if there's any questions. If there are any issues, please report right away.

Thanks
-Andrew

Will 4ext still work? I think it was able to flash a lot of the newer roms.

Thanks for your continued support.

@preludeandrew We have been trained by Chilly and others over the years to use the 4EXT recovery. You know much more about this but it has to do with partitions and formatting issues unique to DINC2 as I understand. His superduperwipe needs 4EXT, etc. The latest 4EXT flashes kitkat roms no problem. I personally like TWRP and use it as much as possible except on DINC2. Can you think of any reason why 4EXT has advantages. Having said that, I have gotten used to 4EXT too.

preludedrew · May 18, 2014

Although you shouldn't need to, you can go back to 4EXT when not wanting to flash evervolv ( or any other kitkat roms that move to proper SELinux ). I tested his superduperwipe and it seems to work properly on my device. If chilly reads this, I analyzed what your sdw was doing, and noticed that there's no assert for device. Since your scripts use static block devices, if someone was to take that and think it'd work on another device... they could cause some issues.

Back on the subject of recovery. Going forward, no kitkat Evervolv builds will flash properly without SELinux support in the recovery. ( I spent more than 6 hours last night / this morning making sure this worked properly ). If someone / chilly wants to update 4EXT, let me know and I'll lend my help on the issue.

I was able to put this into a zip file and install with CWM. I tested backup, restore, wipe, install, vibration settings, and adb connection and shell. All seems to work well!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update: I'm not quite sure what happened. I did attempt to do something with the theme, but I did it from the menu.

When I reboot into recovery, I am now in a place where TWRP is just flashing the 'teamwin' screen and not progressing to the option panels.

I can make an adb connection and have reflashed the TWRP recovery through dd in an adb shell, but on reboot, I get the same situation.

I also flashed TWRP from fastboot and got the same result.

I can boot into the rom with no problems.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I ended up reflashing CWM-6.0.4.7 to get a working recovery. Re-installing TWRP just gave me the flashing 'teamwin' screen.

preludedrew · May 23, 2014

Okay, I ran into issues in the first build or so similar to this ( TWRP splash just flashed on for a second, the off and repeated infinitely ). I didn't have the fstab in the correct location. This has been fixed so I'm not sure what your issue is. Try this in the beginning while it's flashing the twrp splash:

Code:

adb shell cat /tmp/recovery.log

it seems to be rebooting twrp continuously, so you may have to run it a couple times and get it at the perfect time.

If/when you get the log, paste it to: http://paste.evervolv.com/ and grab me the link!

I pulled the battery for a while, then re-installed TRWP and it now is working. I will see if I can get it to fail again the same way and get that log for you.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was able to get the behavior again. It happened after I cancelled an adb sideload operation. At least, that was the most unusual thing I did. Your site did not give me a URL, so I am posting the log here.

The actual log is quite long and shows repetition. I included slightly more (two lines are shown twice) than one repetition so you can see what is happening.

polymath257 · May 23, 2014

OK, I can reliably reproduce and fix the problem in TWRP recovery.

The issue comes up if you are under the settings tab and change the different settings too quickly, say by changing the screen settings, then re-setting to defaults, then changing them again. Evidently, if this is done too quickly, the .twrps file gets corrupted. The next time TWRP is booted, it goes into a loop. If, however, the .twrps file is deleted, TWRP will boot normally.

Building another tester for you with a possible fix. I'll let edit this post with the link.

EDIT: I've been unable to reproduce the issue with this recovery: http://www.evervolv.com/get/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-vivow-test2.img
Please re-test everything that should be working again.

I was also unable to break this one. The steps that broke the previous do not break this one. Good work!

Good to know. I'll hopefully be submitting device trees for official support. Until then, this recovery should work perfectly fine for everyone.

@polymath257 could you make a zip of the new 2.7 twrp second good version and post it here?

Recoveries for Vivow

Here is the TWRP-2.7.0.0 recovery from preludrew for vivow in a zip file:

http://d-h.st/mla

and here is the CWM-6.0.4.7 recovery from my own build:

http://d-h.st/hGz

Both can be flashed from your current recovery.

Awesome, I am trying out the build and its great. No problems with your zip either.

I'll update on the ROM asap

phillibl · Jun 3, 2014

Okay I played around a little more and I came across some issues.

The biggest so far is that I cannot make or receive calls. I've tied flashing a few times and fixing permissions with no luck, the screen goes black then my phone restarts.
The other issue I've had is just random laggyness, this is most apparent when rendering webpages in Browser or Chrome.

Thanks for the rom, I look forward to future builds.

Thanks for the twrp zip. Flashed perfectly. Very snappy.

Is this on Verizon CDMA?

Looking forward to SELinux build to try now I have twrp running.

It's on Page Plus a Verizon MVNO. I hope that's not the issue, no other rom has had issues like that.

I went to put my disc2 on verizon but they are making it difficult. I dialed *228 without being online and got the black screen and reboot as well. So I can say CDMA phone does not work as well. Does data work for you?

My builds from Evervolv sources have been failing the last couple of days. Any suggestions?
