Official twrp for zl1 vs codeworkx va CrisbalGreece

[randxor]

There is an official twrp for zl1(x720), some people here say you can use it on zl0(x722) as well. Can someone confirm?

And what about CrisbalGreece and codeworkx versions? How do they differ from the official twrp for x720, any specific x722 modifications? I tried, but couldn't find their git repos for this.

I mean no disrespect to anyone, but I think we should focus more on having source code and easy build instructions. Otherwise we're just tolerating flying binaries and not helping people to develop their knowledge, turning them into mere consumers.

Sorry for bumping but this thread is really important.

Codeworkx:
Can you please tell us why did you make a 3.2.1 x722 version of twrp?(x720 3.1.1 seems to work on x722)
Also can you provide the source code/modifications?
btw I tried it and the touch screen did not work with it.

Everyone:
Is the x720 3.1.1 version ok to use?
Tried booting it and it seemed to work fine, touch screen and everything.

PS.
We can boot twrp without flashing it via "fastboot boot twrp.img" and then backup whatever we want.
So you can use twrp without flashing it and also backup stock recovery if you want to.
Why aren't more people aware of this?

Hi, I just read your thread.... I explored that path here..... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75451375&postcount=81
Lemme see what you think 'bout it.

It's quite easy to do a full backup or a partial one.
You can use adb while in twrp, just do fastboot boot twrp.img. Afterwards while in twrp, do adb pull /dev/recovery_partition.
To find the exact recovery partition you will nees to look around in dev. Ie. ls, df,lsblk.

I can provide a step by step tutorial.

But all of this has nothing to do with why are there many different twrp versions?
Ie. I know codeworkx supports encryption, but what about his older version? And CrisbalGreece?
