TWRP, etc

How long will it take to get TWRP, custom ROMs, etc?

I don't think anyone knows right now. I know our phones have different partitions than others so it may take some time for it to be stable for us to use. I did see jcase post something on twitter about TWRP on a Pixel.

I saw a post in the dev thread (the only kernel thread right now) that they are working on twrp. The biggest challenge sounds like figuring out the file based encryption used on the pixel device.

I hope they hurry!

The saying "you never know what you've got until it's gone" is very true. :crying:

My prediction is next week... Possibly this weekend.

Dont rush them, be respectful.

No disrespect was intended. My post is a lighthearted comment on life without a rooted device.

My guess is that they're trying to figure out how to best accommodate and exploit the dual partition goodness.

I'm patient. I was just curious.

Does anyone know where we can monitor the progress of TWRP?
AFAIK, the Dev isn't huge on posting Twitter/G+ updates but I could be wrong.

I'm not asking for a progress update (I may be lying).

TWRP and Xposed for 7.1 are the next huge things we're waiting on.
And then we all wait for our favorite ROM to get developed.
Dirty Unicorns or Broken OS for me please. :good:

Sounds like Ethan is making progress on TWRP but still has a ways to go.

TLDR: Successfully decrypted File Based Encryption in recovery. Now we can start working on integrating decrypt and new features, but still a ways to go.

Something to look forward to.
You just know there are already several devs waiting to drop ROM bombs on us. :good:
