[RECOVERY][m7wls] TWRP 3.1.1-0 touch recovery [2017-05-19]

[KidCarter93]

Yup, I believe I remember seeing it. However, if they flash the boot.img like I do in the stock ROM, no need for it

Ok cool. If it is included, maybe Dees_Troy should add it to the OP so that others are aware of it.

Dumlock was developed by me and was originally part of TWRP more than a year ago even before we released 2.1. We include Dumlock on any device that needs it. To me it's a ubiquitous feature of TWRP and I don't feel a strong need to specifically state that a certain build of TWRP has Dumlock or not.

forgive my ignorance, but shouldn't this post have been put in android general? since this built isn't specific to the one but adding support for it? at the very least it will keep poor viper from having a stroke

It's not my thread, I just try to help out. And it should be here because it has the first build for our device. All TWRP threads belong in Original Development, and so they all are

I flashed TWRP on my HTC One - ATT version and it was successful, however, TWRP was unable to mount /data or /sdcard. Consequently, it was unable to root when I went into system - reboot, and I could not root it via flashing a .zip on my sdcard either.

I tried to install manually first, then flashed via goo manager, then tried manually again - each time the same v2.5.0.0 (was just hopeful ).

If you have the ATT version, I recommend CWM no touch, as it worked for me. Looking forward to TWRP working on the ATT brand soon!

Thanks!

To get root:

Unlock your device via http://htcdev.com
Download the latest TWRP from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7wls

Shut off your device.
Press and hold volume down and then press power. Keep holding volume down until a menu shows on your screen.
Use the volume rocker to select fastboot and press power to select fastboot.
Plug the device into your computer.
If you have the right drivers installed your phone screen will now say: FASTBOOT USB

Using a command prompt, type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Your device will reboot. Use the volume rocker to select recovery and press power. You will now boot TWRP.

In TWRP, select reboot -> system. You will be prompted to install SuperSU. Swipe to confirm.

When your device boots you will see a prompt to install the full version of SuperSU. Select to do the TWRP install. Your device will download a file, reboot into TWRP which will automatically install the file, then reboot again.

Congratulations, you are now rooted!

I can't seem to get beyond the bold item above. Instead of rebooting into TWRP, I see the splash screen with the "entering recovery..." message and after about 15 seconds, end up with a black screen. It takes a hard reset to get out of it from that point. I've downloaded three times, flashed manually 4 times (all with no errors or issues) and even tried installing via GOO Manager, all with the exact same results.

I had no problems unlocking the bootloader and have been tinkering with it for an hour or so now trying to get TWRP installed. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!

im having the same exact issue

That's actually comforting. I've been toying with android for a few years now and thought flashing a recovery was pretty easy. I was beginning to think I was missing something really simple.

Quizo, Dees helped me in IRC. He uploaded a new file to the download site to correct the issue. Try that one and it should work for you.

 

[jmlott]

It took me a few tries, but I finally got it to boot into TWRP. Go through the whole process each time. Also make sure you md5sum the file you downloaded and make sure it didn't get corrupted or something.

 

[Dees_Troy]

erikivy joined our IRC channel. I'm not sure why the download was broken (md5's matched and everything) but I deleted the download and recreated it and now it seems fine. Sorry for the troubles.

I was also having problems with getting a working recovery to boot after unlocking.

What worked for me: After installing the recovery, I chose "Power Down" off the Bootloader menu. I then turned the power back on, let it boot up to Android normally. I then rebooted into Recovery and it finally worked.

Took me a bit to get this working, only because I had to read between the lines a bit and walk myself through a few things. BUT, I did it and I'm rooted without any issues. Just got my TB installed and ready to tear this phone up!

Thanks Dees_Troy

I'm seeing issues with paid apps installing possibly due to the Root method are any of you experiencing these?

Its the fault of the ROMs. they weren't developed while the dev had a device onhand, so there are bound to be issues. Stock with root works fine.

viper had the phone pre release, which is how he was able to build the ROMs...

Lol. I knew that, htc elevate. I don't even know why I said that. but yeah. It has to be the roms, as I'm running absolute stock with root and it works fine.

edit: its late. like two devs here were developing without devices and I didnt sleep much last night.

I've installed a few paid apps and I'm not having any issues at all.

All the **Tampered** and Red Words on the splash screens are scarry looking huh? Guess they try to make you worried about rooting and installing custome recoveries.

 

[OMJ]

thx for the recovery TW!

Am I missing something or is mounting the storage not working?
