UPDATE: I am no longer maintaining TWRP for devices that I do not possess. I am also no longer posting on XDA.

All flashing is done at your own risk!
While nothing from this thread should break your device,
don't come back here blaming anyone if it does!

Introduction
Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its 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.

Installation instructions
TWRP Image Install method:
Most devices can be updated quickly and easily within TWRP if you already have version 2.8.4.0 or higher installed.
  1. Download the latest version of TWRP appropriate for your device/firmware
  2. Reboot to TWRP
  3. Hit Install and tap the "Install Image" button in the lower right
  4. Browse to the location of the TWRP image on your device and select it
  5. Select recovery from the partition list and swipe to flash

Alternate Installation Method:
Fastboot Install Method:
You will need the platform-tools from the Android SDK on your computer. Find the Android command line tools section on the page linked and install the SDK tools package. From the SDK Manager, download only the platform-tools to get adb and fastboot binaries.

Windows users will need proper drivers installed on their computer. You can try the Naked ADB drivers or the Universal ADB drivers if you don't already have a working driver installed

On your device, go into Settings -> About and find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable developer settings. Press back and go into Developer Options and enable USB debugging. From your computer, open a command prompt and type:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
You should now be in fastboot mode.

Download the correct image file and copy the file into the same folder as your adb and fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.img and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Code:
fastboot reboot

[*]Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)
[*]Update AOSP base to 6.0
[*]A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks[/LIST]
[U]Additional Notes[/U]
[LIST]WARNING: This is our first release in a long time. We have a lot of new and somewhat aggressive changes in this new release. The changes to the graphics back-end may cause some devices to not boot up properly or have other display-related issues. If you are not in a position to reflash an older build of TWRP, then wait until you are or at least wait until others have tried the new version for your specific device. You don’t want to end up with a non-working recovery and have to wait several hours or days to get to a computer to be able to fix it.
[*]Notes for themers: In addition to the updated theme, we have introduced a theme version variable to the TWRP theme system. If the theme version does not match the version that TWRP expects, TWRP will reject the custom theme and load its stock theme. This change will ensure that people who update TWRP without updating their theme will still have a workable recovery. We have removed libjpeg support. The stock theme was only using a jpeg image for the splash / curtain. This change means that any custom themes will no longer be able to use jpeg images. It also means that tools used to repack recovery images with a different curtain / splash will need to be updated to use the new method.
[*]Version number notes: For a while we’ve been using a 4 digit version number and reserved the 4th digit for device-specific updates. For instance, we find and fix a device-specific issue like decryption of data on Nexus 5, we would release that as a 2.8.7.1. After a while, some people would start asking where 2.8.7.1 was for other devices. So, going forward we have decided to change the numbering scheme to 3.0.0-2, etc. Our hope is that this version numbering scheme will more clearly identify that the 4th digit does not indicate a version change for the code base.
[*]We need your help! The bulk of TWRP work is done by 3 people on a volunteer basis. We have pushed most of our device files to our github and we have a gerrit instance. If you have the ability, please help us maintain our official devices and/or add your device to our official device list. Thanks in advance![/LIST]

[SIZE="4"][COLOR="Green"]2.8.7.0:[/COLOR][/SIZE]
[LIST]Initial ground work for software drawn keyboard (_that)
[*]Fix handling of wiping internal storage on datamedia devices (xuefer)
[*]Allow DataManager to set and read values from the system properties (xuefer)
[*]Fix crash when taking screenshots on arm64 devices (xuefer)
[*]Fix error message after an ORS script completes (Dees_Troy)
[*]Fix crashes / error when creating encrypted backups (_that, Dees_Troy)
[*]Add system read only option – more details below (Dees_Troy)
[*]Add resize2fs and GUI option to run resize2fs (Dees_Troy)
[*]Fix crash loop caused by empty lines in AOSP recovery command file (_that)
[*]Prevent duplicate page overlays such as multiple lock screens (mdmower)[/LIST]
[U]Additional Notes[/U]
[LIST]Note: As always, be sure your custom theme is up to date (or remove your custom theme) before updating TWRP.
[*]System read only option: Devices that ship with 5.0 and higher as their initial OS are using block level OTA updates. With this style of OTA update, the update script checks to see if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. Further, the script also usually runs an SHA sum of the entire system partition to detect if any changes have been made. If any changes have been made, the OTA update will refuse to install. Since not all OEMs and devices have factory images available, we have created a new feature in TWRP that detects if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. If not, you will be prompted asking if you want TWRP to mount system as read/write. If you choose not to allow TWRP to mount as read/write, TWRP won’t prompt to install SuperSU and TWRP won’t try to patch the stock ROM to prevent TWRP from being replaced by stock recovery. The goal of this option is to hopefully allow the user to make a raw system image backup that they can use to get back to a state where they can take OTA updates again.
[*]resize2fs feature: On some devices like the Nexus 6, the factory images include a userdata image that is the proper size only for the 32GB units. If you flash the factory image to a 64GB Nexus 6, the data partition will appear as if it only has the free space of a 32GB device. Using the resize2fs option, TWRP can resize your data partition to take up the full space available. The resize2fs may also be useful to resize system partitions on devices where custom ROM system images don’t take up the full partition space. Lastly, resize2fs may be useful in some cases to reserve the proper space at the end of a data partition for a full disk encryption key, should your partition be formatted incorrectly for some reason.
[*]This new version also marks our first set of full builds using our new jenkins build server. You can track the progress of builds at [url]https://jenkins.twrp.me[/url] and we have taken additional steps to make it easier for device maintainers to step up and submit patches to our gerrit server at [url]https://gerrit.twrp.me[/url] to help us keep devices up to date and working.[/LIST]

Known Issues

Bug Reporting
If you have an issue, the first step is to post a recovery log so we can determine the cause of the issue. This is done in recovery using Advanced -> Copy Log, or adb pull /tmp/recovery.log. Once a log is uploaded we can determine how best to proceed. NOTE: Posts that are reporting bugs or issues without an accompanying recovery log will be ignored! Additionally, providing details about your device setup, including variant, firmware version, and exact steps to reproduce your issue will also be helpful in diagnosing the problem.
74479355.jpg

If your issue is determined to be a bug, please consider posting it to our github issues log. It's pretty much impossible for us to keep up with the more than 40 threads that we have for the devices that we "directly" support. If you have a significant problem that cannot be answered in this thread, your best bet is to contact us via our website, or find us in our IRC channel below. If you see someone that's struggling, feel free to point it out to us. We need your help to help us keep track of all of our devices! Thanks!

Additional Help/Support:
Live support is available via #twrp on Freenode with your IRC client or just click this link.

Thanks for the official release.
If you have some spare time, could you consider material design ?

Sent from my HTC One_E8 dual sim using Tapatalk
Use the Materialised theme.

When the stock theme is overhauled (expected with TWRP v3.0), I believe it will include some Material design elements.

I just flashed twrp 2.8.5.0 it's working great thanks.

I always had one problem which is when I press any button in the reboot menu there is a 5 second delay before it reboots.

All the previous versions had the same problem.

Is this permanent or can you fix it in future releases.

And the playstore twrp app doesn't have E8 on its menu, not even a single variant.

Can you please look into that too.

Thanks in advance.

The reboot "delay" is normal.

And there is no official TWRP app on the Play Store.

2.8.7.0 is uploaded.

NOTE: If you have already updated to Lollipop, then it's possible the latest version will not work on your device. If you determine that this is the case, let me know - I can upload a beta M8 version that should work on the E8.

TWRP 2.8.7.0 has my sd write-protected
tried it with 2 SD cards is effective immediately back on ... and this write protection can be removed by anything neither format or the like can you please fix

I think you may be confused by the system read-only prompt. Did you read the change log in the OP? Recovery can't write-protect your device. No kernel changes were made for this device, so it can't be anything the recovery did.

Just disable the read-only option. I don't really understand your issue (language barrier?). If the previous version works fine for you, feel free to continue using it.

    [U]Additional Notes[/U]
    [LIST]Note: As always, be sure your custom theme is up to date (or remove your custom theme) before updating TWRP.
    [*]System read only option: Devices that ship with 5.0 and higher as their initial OS are using block level OTA updates. With this style of OTA update, the update script checks to see if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. Further, the script also usually runs an SHA sum of the entire system partition to detect if any changes have been made. If any changes have been made, the OTA update will refuse to install. Since not all OEMs and devices have factory images available, we have created a new feature in TWRP that detects if the system partition has ever been mounted read/write. If not, you will be prompted asking if you want TWRP to mount system as read/write. If you choose not to allow TWRP to mount as read/write, TWRP won’t prompt to install SuperSU and TWRP won’t try to patch the stock ROM to prevent TWRP from being replaced by stock recovery. The goal of this option is to hopefully allow the user to make a raw system image backup that they can use to get back to a state where they can take OTA updates again.
    [*]resize2fs feature: On some devices like the Nexus 6, the factory images include a userdata image that is the proper size only for the 32GB units. If you flash the factory image to a 64GB Nexus 6, the data partition will appear as if it only has the free space of a 32GB device. Using the resize2fs option, TWRP can resize your data partition to take up the full space available. The resize2fs may also be useful to resize system partitions on devices where custom ROM system images don’t take up the full partition space. Lastly, resize2fs may be useful in some cases to reserve the proper space at the end of a data partition for a full disk encryption key, should your partition be formatted incorrectly for some reason.
    [*]This new version also marks our first set of full builds using our new jenkins build server. You can track the progress of builds at [url]https://jenkins.twrp.me[/url] and we have taken additional steps to make it easier for device maintainers to step up and submit patches to our gerrit server at [url]https://gerrit.twrp.me[/url] to help us keep devices up to date and working.[/LIST]

    Known Issues

    Bug Reporting
    If you have an issue, the first step is to post a recovery log so we can determine the cause of the issue. This is done in recovery using Advanced -> Copy Log, or adb pull /tmp/recovery.log. Once a log is uploaded we can determine how best to proceed. NOTE: Posts that are reporting bugs or issues without an accompanying recovery log will be ignored! Additionally, providing details about your device setup, including variant, firmware version, and exact steps to reproduce your issue will also be helpful in diagnosing the problem.

    Thanks for the official release.
    If you have some spare time, could you consider material design ?

    Use the Materialised theme.

    When the stock theme is overhauled (expected with TWRP v3.0), I believe it will include some Material design elements.
