Here's TWRP 2.5, freshly compiled from source. It's an .img file, so you'll need to flash through fastboot.

Thanks Cap! Works fine here, android secure is fixed in both spots, like you said. I haven't backed anything up yet, but I'll bet that works just fine too. I noticed the font is bigger in the terminal screen, thanks for that too. Much easier to read. Thanks again :)

Request for testing

Note: I have obtained permission from Dees_Troy to post this here.
Caution: Advanced users only. I will not take responsibility for damaged devices.

I put some work into updating and unifying the TWRP device trees for evita, jewel, fireball, and ville. Before I make a pull-request to TeamWin, I need the below recovery image tested. Everything should work just as well as in the official TWRP 2.5.0.0. If there are any regressions, please report them!

A couple changes worth noting:
  1. Can backup encrypted data partitions of AOSP based ROMs (see notes below for CyanogenMod example)
  2. sdcard is now called Internal Storage (path: /sdcard)
  3. sdcard2 is now called MicroSD (path: /external_sd)

Download

CyanogenMod Encryption notes
Pre-requisites:
  1. CyanogenMod with this patch applied (has not been merged yet)
Encryption procedure:
  1. Make a full backup in TWRP
  2. Restore your backup - This seemingly odd step will ensure a footer is allocated at the end of your data partition for encryption data.
  3. Install a CM build with the above patch applied and wipe Dalvik cache
  4. Reboot and let phone battery charge to 100%
  5. Turn on Airplane mode
  6. Settings > Security > Encrypt phone
    Be patient, your screen may go black for a couple minutes without indication of anything occurring before a reboot occurs and encryption progress is displayed.
Reverting encryption:
  1. Make a full backup in TWRP (you will need to enter your encryption PIN upon entering recovery)
  2. Reboot to TWRP, but instead of entering your encryption pin, just hit cancel
  3. Wipe your data partition
  4. Restore your backup

Doesn't work for me. I don't get images on my screen, just a "static" of sorts.

Thank you for the first report. I've updated the colorspace to RGBX_888. The device tree on github.com/teamwin is a WEEEE out of date for referencing.

Do you currently have OTG support in the official TWRP? This may be the second update I will have to make.

Does that mean that the HTC EVO LTE will now work with fb2png for being able to screenshot in recovery?

Wanted to say thanks again for this. I've been fiddling around with the Supercharger script and patching the services.jar and this version of TWRP 2.5.0.0 hasn't malfunctioned once in reverting back after an error. As an added bonus it seems that both making backups and restoring are taking much less time now. :good:

You will have to keep your eyes on this thread for fb2png. Since Phil3759 has it working on One X now, it's likely that his latest fb2png will work on jewel as well (either with the current official TWRP, or the version I posted above). My fireball is a special... difficult, case.
