[Unofficial] TWRP 3.1.1-0 Moto G5 Plus [potter]

Santhosh M

Inactive Recognized Developer / Inactive Recognize
TWRP 3.1.1-0 Moto G5 plus (potter)

Latest TWRP changelog :

3.1.1-0 full changelog


Working/Bugs :

I have just basically tested and all seems to be working (including decryption of /data). If something is broken lemme know.

Please do read the installation guide note !

IMPORTANT NOTE :
  • At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda

  • Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well

    If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data



Installation Guide :

  • Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
  • Reboot to bootloader
  • fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary
    boot)

Download Link :

twrp_3.1.1-0_potter


Have used prebuilt kernel of existing sdcard fixed twrp released by vache and hence there is no kernel source to provide

IMPORTANT NOTE : Since force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS TWRP will/might ask for decrypt password for /data while you boot for first time.
You would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to recovery for twrp for functioning of /data

Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary
boot)

Make sure u read whole OP at least once. Try to boot into fastboot. And flash again the twrp. U need to wipe your data with twrp first. Than boot ur device. Than flash latest stable SuperSu zip.


Thanks @Santhosh M for bringing twrp this fast will flash it as soon as my device arives.

Any advice? @Santhosh M

@Santhosh M
Are you going to develop for G5 Plus? I enjoyed your roms for kenzo but you left the development.

Any plans for G5/G5 Plus?
+1
Never had kenzo but I was looking at development from beginning on that device. He was the first who brings custom rom to kenzo.
Squid will support and now santhosh has already started and gave twrp very fast. Future looks very bright to me. :D
