Question Is there even ONE working custom recovery?

[invincible64]

I bought this phone in large part due to the EDL flashing tool which OnePlus decided to lock down and start charging money for. So I'm pretty bummed to see a landscape without much activity or support from various well known projects like TWRP and Lineage. Is there any recovery out there on par with TWRP that works right now whose GitHub repo hasn't been deleted?

Custom recvoerys like TWRP dont play a big role anymore. At least i did not need one on my last 3 devices. OnePlus 8 Pro, Nothing Phone 1, Pixel 7 Pro. All have custom roms and everything is fine.

The only thing i am missing is NandroidBackup but without sdcard sot Nandroid is not really useful anyway.

Short answer: No we have no custom recovery but we dont need one.

Nandroid backup saved me so many times...
I would like so much TWRP

For me, that's not true.
I have a couple of cases that the TWRP can solve.

- delete some apps in the super partition.
- use scripts from @osm0sis to deactivate force encryption and make super partition writable again
- nandroid backup
- delete magisk modules if they make problems or bootloops
- and much more that I have forgotten

I'm not an expert, but I loved to flash ROM (before my NP!)
Now I'm with 1.5.3 with a big fear to brick my NP1 to jump on a Custom ROM
Every Custom ROM has a particular instruction to flash it, XDA is no more the basic area where the threat are updated, now is Telegram where are all the info
But these "info" are not simple and explained step by step...
TWRP would have been a safe port for me (us? @dreas74 )

... I have no such scripts.

I may have mistaken the author.
In any case, the works are inspired by you.

[Deprecated] Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota Disabler [11/2/2020]

Hi all! For the past couple of months, I've been looking into making a more universal solution to disable dm-verity and forceencrypt. Needing to take different zips, modify them for different devices, and then cross your fingers when you switch...

I think the problem for the most users is they can't handle adb and fastboot and that's why they want a recovery. I haven't used any recovery since OnePlus 8 series and i never missed it.

Then put us in the entire light of the platform tools gods.

How can I disable encryption of the data partition and how can I delete youtube parts in the system partition with ADB or fastboot?

I use ADB and fastboot all the time, but it would be nice to regain the ability to do things without being tethered to a laptop.
