[DEV][02/May/2015]unOFFICIAL TWRP|v2.8.6.1

[kokotas]

Don't understand why you remove the extended version here?

The main reason is that I don't have enough free time to support it.
Also I think this thread should be all about the official TWRP ported to HD2. I shouldn't have messed things up.

I miss only the size of files in the file manager.

I believe that this could be implemented. We could have the size shown in the page with the operation options. Thanks for the idea.

I'm voting for extended version in this thread too!

Check the link in my signature. I've created the github repo for the extended version. You can check out the code and find the compiled image there too(under /out).
For anything relevant to that version, please use github(create an issue). Not this thread.

Regards!

First, let me tell you that I sincerely appreciate your efforts.
I am indeed currently using your 2.4.0r1 version.

I need to add that I fully intend to respect your decision to take development in a different direction or not to.

Having said that please allow me to say that I do not agree with your direction (although, as I said, I shall respect it) to take it elsewhere. I am certain you know that XDA is frequented by a large number of people and most are used to the format, moderation and readability of these forums. The way it looks to me, your moving the extended version to github removes it from XDA and places it into a new, less comfortable environment, asking your followers to frequent yet another place. It almost seems like your intention is to reduce the number of people involved from the XDA crowd. I do not see how lack of time suggests the use of another media and you could have, just as easily, opened another thread here on XDA for the extended version. You would not have any more or less time and your OP could spell out just how limited your time and presence might be.

I have no intention to continue or debate this post with others participating herein.
I ask everyone reading here not to post replies to me in this thread - I shall not continue or respond to them.
I simply wanted to express a view and am now done.

The above is only my own opinion and, as I already said, I shall respect your decision and thank you for all your efforts, regardless.

 

[kokotas]

Thank you very much for continuing to be such a

You really are... and I think it's mostly because you are a quite perceptive person.:good:
Yes. I have no problem to admit that your view of things is the right one. But that doesn't change the facts.
The lack of time isn't just an excuse. For the past 2-3 weeks that I was working on the Extended versions I started to have REAL problems.
Every single day I was getting late to work because I was messing with the code. Even while at work, I was thinking about the code.. At some point it consumed me!
Until my boss came, we had a nice little chat and that thing had to stop.

I thought of opening a new thread for the Extended versions, but I postponed it for a later/better time... and probably will do it sooner than I was expecting.
For now, the Extended version will be hosted only at github(which may indeed act as a filter, allowing a handful of people instead of a crowd to easily access it, but that's not necessarily bad, is it?).

Regards!

That is too much dedication to the cause. Everyone needs to know these tweaks and ROMs are not people's day jobs and life comes first. I thank you for your efforts in supporting us troublemakers . Of course we are only trying to help IMPROVE your work. I know myself at work that there is nothing better than end user testing to find the weird and obscure bugs in a program.

Interesting post

Came across this post a little while ago in the TWRP thread (emphasis added by me):

Odds are your 64GB card is using exFAT. Wait for Tuesday's TWRP 2.4 release.

Of course, the HD2/Leo does not support exFAT at this stage as far as I know but if/when it may TWRP sounds like will be ready for it. :good:

@kokotas -- does our 2.4.x support it? My response to Dees_Troy is here.

Of course, the HD2/Leo does not support exFAT at this stage as far as I know but if/when it may TWRP sounds like will be ready for it.

Just a nit-pick... the HD2/Leo will support any FS that Recovery, ROM (and kernel?) support, so I am not sure that it is device specific, per se, and do not know whether MAGDLR comes into the picture. MAGDLR is already involved in placing partition size limits (e.g. System's partition size is limited to somewhere around 450M - not great for those of us with 1G ROM space), so you never know.

I am (obviously) not kokotas and will not speak for him but I'd have to say not hardly - it hasn't even been released in the 24.x version from Dees Troy...

I think that is the point. If using Tytung's ROM / kernel the file system (exFAT) is not currently included, hence it is not now supported in this ROM. I suspect there is no HD2 ROM that supports it just yet. Recovery supporting it will be 50% of the game, at best. Necessary, but useless without the kernel also doing it.

Of course, I could be wrong - I have been wrong once before, many years ago when I thought I made a mistake. Turned out I didn't...

exFAT support is a new feature added to the mainline TWRP (v2.4).
I have included it in ours (to the version I'm testing) but while I'm able to create an exFAT partition from inside TWRP, there is a problem when trying to mount it(FUSE issues). If I can find a workaround, I will add it in the next release even though without a Rom that supports exFat this will be of no use.

MAGDLR is already involved in placing partition size limits (e.g. System's partition size is limited to somewhere around 450M - not great for those of us with 1G ROM space), so you never know.

I really don't know all the supported filesystem types in MAGLDR.
But if it doesn't support exfat, then changing the filesystem of our /sdcard to exFat will create problems out of nowhere, since MAGLDR won't be able to read the card.

I thought of opening a new thread for the Extended versions, but I postponed it for a later/better time... and probably will do it sooner than I was expecting.

A new thread for the extended versions is now open!

Regards!

It's been a while since I uploaded an nonofficial compiled TWRP, so here it goes...
v2.4.4.0 is compiled from TeamWin's source (with the minimum known changes needed to make it work for MAGLDR too).
I haven't flashed it so this is not tested.

Regards!

You referenced a thread in which the very first post explains and answers your question. Did you even attempt to read the post you referenced above??? :crying:

 

[jwchips]

What is the difference [ Extended TWRP ] & [ TWRP ] ?

This version is as close to stock official TWRP as kokotas can make it (a few changes for you MAGLDR users), the extended version has loads of (really useful) hd2-specific options. Extended gets more frequently updated, but should be considered less stable.

Sorry if I'm wrong!

Hi guys,

Updated TWRP to v2.5.0.0, thanks to TeamWin which keeps on improving this great project:good:.
This time, when I compiled the unmodified source code and flashed the generated img to my device, it wouldn't get pass the TeamWin's logo.
So I had to make some extra changes to the source JUST to make it boot. I am sure that these changes won't interfere with the core functions! I haven't tested them, so if you have anything to report leave your feedback here.
Change log @ 1st post.

Regards!
