Hi!

I've compiled a TWRP 2.6.3.0 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LTE (GT-I9195) with crypto support. I've attached a screencapture during an installation of an cyanogenmod update from my encrypted /data partition using goomanager. So i thought, maybe someone can use this because i didn't find any build for the device yet.
I'm not sure if you can use it with encrypted stock samsung roms (I've included some samsung libs, but i couldn't test it), but for cm it should work. And any unencrypted devices..

Installation as usual (Odin (tar.md5.zip - needs to be unzipped) or Heimdall (.img)) ...
Hello, as i already said before ... you did a wonderful job with your build; may i suggest you to submit it to the TWRP team @ http://teamw.in/

I've tested it with I9195XXUAMF7 stock ROM ... no problem at all, works really great :thumbup:

PS : I am not affiliated with TeamWin team in any kind of way ;)

One more Q ..I have couple backups in CWM folder...can I copy them to twrp or I have to backup all again?
In order to restore backups with TWRP, you must previously back your phone up with TWRP ... restoring CWM backups with TWRP will not work ... ;)

Best regards

One more Q...When I try to backup my rom whit TWRP on sd card..I got error ...fail to create backup folder :S
When you're talking about sdcard, do you mean internal storage or external micro sdcard ? I'm using my external micro sdcard [FAT32 formatted] with TWRP on my GT-I9195 without any issue ... :D

and for the I9192? ;)
any love for the GT-i9190 ?

:eek:
Anyone of you tried to flash the image for the GT-i9195? I'm not sure if that will work, but i think the recovery is mostly a kernel with a busybox (so a lightweight linux userland). I mean, the devices only differ in dual sim, NFC and high level things that doesn't matter for the recovery anyways, right? Either it will boot the recovery or not. You can still flash a different one if it fails in download mode.

I'm a bit low of time right now, maybe i can compile them this weekend, but still i won't be able to test them since i don't own a GT-i919{0,2}.

Hmz, not sure it will work I remember I had an HTC One S ( c2 ) and that was some sick variant with different cpu than the one s normal.
I tried the one s recovery and did not end well.

Just downloaded to my i9192, it seems to run, currently making a full backup for testing ;)

Backup complete and all features looks ok !

Okay, then i think it's fully functional if you can do backups. I thought so, since the chipset (CPU, Mainboard, ..) should be the same and also the EMMC storage and its partitions. Thats cool!
