[RECOVERY][jflteatt] TWRP 3.1.1-0 touch recovery [2017-05-19]

[burningembers]

Oops! It was probably the typo. loki_flash.c works fine.

Nonetheless, I did it manually: dd of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery if=/data/local/tmp/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jflteatt.lok

And it worked great. Do not recommend.

It worked, successfully installed twrp but after booting to recovery, twrp can't decrypt my phone it says invalid password even though I know I'm entering the password right.

Attached is TWRP 2.5.0.1 in Loki format. Curious about Loki? See Dan Rosenberg's (@djrbliss) disclosure on unlocking the bootloader here.

This was made for JDQ39.I337UCUAMDL so I believe you will need the OTA to properly use it (for aboot from the OTA specifically).

I can't take screenshots in recovery but I've tested and it is working.

Steps:

1) Download the attached zip and extract the .lok file to your desktop. Download loki_flash from Dan's GitHub here.
2) Push loki_flash and the .lok file with adb
- adb push loki_flash /data/local/tmp
- adb push openrecovery*.lok /data/local/tmp
3) Using the device, flash the recovery image.
- adb shell
- su
- cd /data/local/tmp
- chmod 755 loki_flash
- ./loki_flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jflteatt.lok
4) Reboot into recovery and enjoy!

ALL THANKS TO DAN ROSENBERG and the creators of TWRP. I just used their tools to put this together for the less inclined.

So let me get this straight, if i'm on JDQ39.I337UCUAMDL which i am and i'm rooted, all i have to do is follow the instruction above and this will take care of the Boatloader and i will have TWRP installed ?. I download the TWRP zip and i notice it's not an image file it's like a text file is that correct ?.

Sorry to post in the AT&T section, but would some kind and generous soul please post a "how to" guide for TWRP on VZW in our forums? I love TWRP... Just not as savoy as most with cell phones and such....

If we make a backup with twrp, does the backup need to be patched with loki before it can be used?

Follow those instructions and it will work, or you can just download goo manager and do it that way.

the zip file you downloaded needs to be extracted, inside you will find a .lok file.

the loki_flash file will download as a text file if you are on windows, just erase the .txt file extension.

For those who arent ADB aware, here are the steps I took to get this to work on my phone

1. Start with a rooted AMDL
2. Download loki_flash and romracers loki'd twrp recovery. (you have to unzip his download to get the .lok file)
3. Connect phone to computer
4. Move loki_flash and openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jflteatt.lok to your sdcard
5. Open a root explorer like ES File Explorer and move both files to /data/local/tmp
6. Use a Terminal Emulator from the Play Store (I use Android Terminal Emulator) and run the commands below 1 at a time

su
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 loki_flash
./loki_flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.1-jflteatt.lok

7. Use Goo Manager or physical buttons to boot into recovery.

^Yes

Look on Page 5 for romracer's post. He said Windows might rename the file becuase it doesnt know what it is. are you talking about the loki_flash file? not the zip containing the twrp recovery right?

I did it on my Mac and the file is extracted but it's not an image file like i would normally get for a recovery it the same format as the .lok file .

Dees_Troy;41010145]NOTE: The 2.5.0.2 build of TWRP is already loki modified. Simply root your device then use GooManager to flash the image or download and flash manually.

I guess you can just use the new method straight through Goo Manager.

Simple install. Just backed up my stock rom and ready to play with some flashes Took about 5 mins tho and 2% of my battery

What are the BIG benefits of the compression ? I just sort of don't trust it since I personally feel it being risky.

When i backed it up, and did a reboot to system. it said " root permission has been lost " and allowed it again. hmmm probably not a big issue

I didn't have to push anything. Just downloed GooManager and clicked the stuff stated. Then it auto DLs and installs.

TWRP is working great for me, but it thinks that it is 1970. Is anyone else having this problem?
