Reboot to recovery directly from the bootloader, if you reboot to system there are chances that TWRP gets overwritten.
did that it just works one time after i flash the xposed zip file and after reboot it shows xposed framework not installed and says not root access when checked, dont we get root access when we flash a recovery by default.

PS: iam on oreo, i've used the arm files not the arm64 files, could this be the issue? :mad:

You still have to flash magisk or supersu in order to gain root access on the system. On stock oreo arm packages are correct, only 8.1 custom roms run at 64 bit.

Thank you for the link. I'd strongly suggest caution. For one thing, that random build is already two months behind in security patches. Anybody knows if this 'fab' developer is at least on XDA ?
 

Probably just grabbed Albertos 15.0 and changed the settings strings.
Can you verify it has all the Android 8.1 features?

No, I would never use it without knowing where it comes from, and at any rate, as I already said, it is lacking in security patches, it was built in February. Better leave it alone. We're off topic anyway.

better to install mindthegapps instead of gapps better compatibilty
I'm seriously having doubts with regards to the authenticity of this ROM. For one, if the dev does have an xda account, then why did he not create a thread about this? Does it show the Android Oreo as the easter egg instead of the orange and yellow circles? Does it have a translucent quick settings panel? Is the power off and reboot button shifted to the right?

Anyways, I'll just create a separate thread for this.

Again off-topic, but to avoid leaving readers of this thread on an alarm note, or thinking there is a regular 15.1 build :

It is a one-off, and shouldn't be used at this point, if only because it lacks security patches, two soon to be three : March, April, and May, but fablebreton has built before various things and posted them in XDA. There is no thread simply because that is not a regularly maintained and released build, he's building for himself and decided to share that one. Also it was a 64 bit build, I doubt Lineage will build anything other than 32 bit, although I'd love to be proven wrong.

Does anyone know if it there is any danger to the device if using this recovery on a Z2 play? I want to modify files on my data partition and I could successfully boot and decrypt it with this recovery, but not the ones that are meant for my device. Details

    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.

    Unlocked bootloader is required.


    README:
    Code:
    Our device comes with forced encryption and, more important,
    verity which checks at every boot if /system partition has been changed or not.
    If /system has been changed, verity won't allow booting your device which means
    you can't flash anything unless you disable verity.

    Installation
    To temporarily boot this recovery:
    Code:
    fastboot boot twrp.img
    To permanently flash it:
    Code:
    fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

    Disable Verity
    Oreo
    • Flash this kernel (only compatible with latest oreo build, OPNS27.76-12-22-9) through fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot-noverity.img) or TWRP (Install -> Install image -> Select Boot -> Swipe to install)
    • Verity is now disabled, you can flash Magisk or anything else
    Marshmallow/Nougat
    • If you aren't going to root your device, you can use my patcher (that disables forced encryption as well) else Magisk/SuperSU will do this for you.
    • In order to definitely get rid of encryption, if you wish to, you'll have to erase userdata with fastboot

    Thanks to @vache we have working SDCard now (a new build is up). Meanwhile omni team pushed a fix for adb backup to 7.1 branch so that's another working feature!

    A new build based on the oreo kernel with improved encryption support for oreo is out. There also is a possible fix for the touchscreen issue, let me know if you still hit it.
    14
    The first official build is out (\o/) but there isn't any difference with the latest unofficial I posted few days ago right now.

    Are there any drawbacks to be expected when using it in combination with Marshmallow or Nougat?
    I can't guarantee that encryption will work on Nougat (but it should), almost certainly it will not on Marshmallow

    It looks like touch screen issue is fixed ;) .... is there any way to make backup faster to adopted storage - it takes for me 772 sek , avg. speed 13 mb/sek - while to internal memory it takes 407 sek,speed 24mb/sek ? (11.3 gb of data with digest ON)
    Nothing that I can do but there is an option to skip digest generation during the backup, that will save some time but if for some reason the backup gets corrupted you will not be warned
    14
    A new version with improved support for Nougat encryption and fixed F2FS is available, it took me a while since I had to upgrade the build environment to 7.1.1 (local manifest here if you need a minimal omni one).

    Also back in december I developed a patcher that disables verity and forced encryption. You don't really need it if you root your device though as these zips already disable verity and FE.
    I wanted to thank squid2 for helping me in building proper binaries to run in recovery, gladiac and Chainfire for some ideas I took from FED-Patcher and SuperSU.
