Team Win Recovery Project 3.0.2-0




WHAT IS TWRP?

Oh come on, you know what it is - don't try to fool me!
In case you're serious, though...

Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.

DOWNLOAD

You can find the device page here:
http://teamw.in/devices/samsunggalaxys5plus.html

There is a download link there, as well as instructions on how to flash it.

I highly recommend using Odin to flash when possible.
You can find a zip containing Odin as well as a link to Samsung's Mobile drivers page here:
https://idlekernel.com/flash-tools/

Seems to be working well. Backup, Restore, Install from zip, Mount, Settings all worked flawlessly for me. Only concern: CPU temp rose to about 80C during backup, with a spike of 95C.

did you actually feel the heat (that intense) or did it just say that on the screen?
its possible the temperate may be being misread

official build is up now

The thread title still says “3.1.0-0”, btw.
fixed the version in title, the arial black thing is actually a bug with xda forums that they introduced a few days ago I think

I can't see our device in the device list of TWRP Manager. Is not all official builds available through the app?

Same here.
And I'm probably missing something, but .img files are not flashable through Odin...

I got an answer on that separately. The app isn't actually officially supported by the TWRP team. The app maintaner has to add new models/builds to the list. Once I found out it was unofficial I just carried on using Flashify, which offers similar, except its list includes our device.

As for the img file thing, you are correct. You either need to convert it (which I did try, and didn't succeed at) or use something like Flashify to flash the img file.

ok installed via flashify, thanks to the poster who posted this, twrp shame on them for not fixing their documentation.

Now the issue is its still buggy like theunofficial builds.

1 - brightness setting doesnt work
2 - vibrate doesnt work
3 - if dont touch screen for 5 seconds it then freezes for 30 seconds before responds again
4 - device reboots during backup

I managed to do backups now, so at least it functions now. Will keep this over philz since CM/philz is dead.

and yes I did read the offiical page, it has incorrect info, as it says to use the app which wont work, I used flashify. They need to edit that page to tell people to use flashify and warn some features dont work, thats all.

i don't own this device myself, if you have those issues then come to #twrp on freenode irc and we can work on making test builds to fix those issues.
the tester had told us that everything was working fine.

Can some folks please try this: https://idlekernel.com/twrp/kccat6/twrp-3.0.2-1-b4-kccat6.tar.md5

I've updated f2fs drivers, now using CPE1 kernel sources from Marshmallow.

I've added more partitions to EFS backup, and fixed any possible issues that might be happening during modem/firmware backups.

I also added CM13 hardware qcom encryption support.

And fixed the brightness adjustment hopefully...

Of course I still need someone to report back and let me know if these are actually *fixed*. ;)
I'm still going in blind as it's not a device I own.

Here are the complete changes: https://github.com/jcadduono/androi...mmit/dc77b5ca4fde9148211515d7600776b1b27da1ca

Please also let me know if there are other issues I don't know about!

    Hi Corinna
    Happy NY in first place[emoji106]
    I saw you wrote a version TWRP yourself in wich the problem is fixed. Maybe a stupid question but does that version work for all Roms or just CM?

    There's nothing special in my version of TWRP. It's just a rebuild from stock TWRP repo, in which the problem with logd is already fixed.
    Otherwise it should work exactly as the official TWRP 3.0.2-0 release.
    @jcadduono, would it be much of a problem for you to upload a kccat6 TWRP built from the current repo to avoid this logd problem? I can provide this version for myself, but having this version officially from the TWRP website would be nice.

    Thanks,
    Corinna
