I have to say, this is very good, still concerned that it is an unsupported recovery now, though I did see that Philz updated sources today with a fixed lib file. Good work @mythi. Are you going to update this or does it matter?

Why would he post the fact that it needs fixed and the fix in that thread then? I know he stopped support due to work, but then he must feel it important enough to post about it?
Hi guys. Does anyone know if backup and restore works on 4.4.2 kitkat with this recovery?
I'll answer my own question. Yes it does, as I did a restore from my backup last night making it, imho the best recovery for our device.

CWM is very outdated, brain dead (it will kill root on zip flashes) and unsupported. Philz is a better choice if you like that kind of recovery, but it is abandoned as well. TWRP is a better choice if you grab the one from the Multi-ROM thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...mod-multirom-v30-multirom-twrp-i9295-t2962492
philz touch builds are currently broken on cm12 so there isnt much todo on cm12 , will see if its same on cm11
Am i the only one with following problem?
When i turn off the phone and plug in the power cable, the Stock charging animation appears but its freezed. After 15 seconds a smaler charging animation appears. Next thing is: During this, i cant use the power button to power on the phone. The phone restarts, but it will go back into the charging animation. I must unplug the power cable to boot the phone into android.
I think this is a problem of CWM/PhilZ ?!

You need to wait at least a minute after flashing recovery.
Don't touch phone till then.
After a min press power button once. You can unlock the recovery.
After that go to setting in recovery. Change brightness to 10% . small issue. But bothers lot in beginning.

Hello...
8 - "DONT REBOOT TO NORMAL MODE"?
I do not understand step 9 ... I did not understand which buttons to press. I may not be able to restart in recovery mode.
Root = flash the zip with TWRP. Right?
Xposed = flash sdk23 / arm64 zip with TWRP. Right?
I couldn't get TWRP work in my phone, not sure what step I misunderstood or missed out. After the unlock process the phone will be reset and I need to set up dev, usb debugging again after normal reboot. After renaming/replacing recovery.img run the install twrp script. The phone will reboot into recovery and it normally says "press any key to continue" until the process is completed, then wait for a few minutes. However when I reboot to recovery mode it's still "Lenovo recovery" not TWRP. I did it about 3x with the same result. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

WHAT IS TWRP?
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.
Read more about TWRP here: https://twrp.me/about/
What's new in 3.2.1-0:
* minui fixes (cryptomilk) * Better android-8.0 compatibility in ROM trees (Dees_Troy) * Fix missing library in android-8.0 (nkk71) * Fix inconsistent SDCard naming (DevUt) * Default to TWRP restore instead of adb backup restore to fix restore on fresh TWRP boot (jlask)
INSTALLATION:
Most devices can be updated quickly and easily within TWRP if you already have version 2.8.4.0 or higher installed
1) Download the latest version above
2) Reboot to TWRP
3) Hit Install and tap the "Install Image" button in the lower right
4) Browse to the location of the TWRP image on your device and select it
5) Select recovery from the partition list and swipe to flash
To install from SP Flash Tools:
1) Download scatter file attached to this post
2) Load scatter file into SPFT
3) Plug USB cable into device and computer
4) Press download in SPFT
5) Reboot device
To install from offical TWRP App (Requires a rooted device.)
1) Download Official TWRP App from playstore
2) Choose the device (elephone P9000 -- p9000)
3) Install it
BUGS:
If you have an issue, the first step is to post a recovery log so we can determine the cause of the issue. This is done in recovery using Advanced -> Copy Log, or adb pull /tmp/recovery.log. Once a log is uploaded we can determine how best to proceed.

Great work, however, I can't find it in twrp app from playstore. Will this be updated soon?
What's the difference between an installation from twrp-App and flashtools?

That's good news.
But again, what's the difference between an installation of twrp from its app and via flashtools. Is it in the end the same? Or do you recommend one of both methods?

If you already have root, i recommend the app, since its an easier to way to download, install/update the recovery, but if you dont have root you need at least once to install it from flash tools, since the app is not an option yet for the moment(its not on devices list, but you can manually install it), you can download the image and flash it through the app (if you have root, that is) if you dont have roog you need to use flash tools
I have P9000 with Nougat on it, version Elephone_P9000_20170418 and I'm trying to install TWRP 3.0.2 with SPFlash Tool, I only check recovery and flash it, but when I start the phone in recovery mod displays only show "no command". Is there any scatter file for this version, and what should I do to flash it through SPFlash Tool?

Any scatter file from one of our stock roms should do the trick, just put it alongside the downloaded twrp image, and flash it, also twrp 3.0.2 is not official, unlike this one, this one will be able to be updated directly through the twrp app once the issue is fixed.

Without root then or is it always required for this app?

the app will always require root, but you can always use magisk with the certification bug fix and magisk hide so that you can have the device certified and still be rooted. (if you dont know what certification is used for, its to allways allow the usage of android pay)
Thanks for your work
The onely thing that doesn't work for me is OTG.

Thanks for the log but next time use pastebin so you dont make a huge post (and i have copied the log and later on ill see it, so you can edit and delete the log from post so it doesnt fill the thread, thanks)
Good day!
My apologies as I am new to this, but I can't seem to find the link to the scatter file that you mention. Could you help me, please?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for the trouble.

You can try to compare your sources with those of Jonny. The TWRP versions which he build worked for me.
Edit: I tried to fix it by myself and after I used another kernel (Darksense kernel) as prebuild kernel it worked.

[Root/Magisk] [BQ Aquaris X2 / X2 PRO] Without Custom Recovery [Stock ROM]

Hey there!
I don't own this device anymore!
There will be no updates from me anymore.
This is how to Root the BQ Aquaris X2 / X2 PRO without a Custom Recovery like TWRP!
This is more or less a workaround until an official TWRP recovery will be available.
*** WARNING ***
This will work for the following builds:
- 1.3.0 -> 1.7.2
Requirements:
- ADB/Fastboot + Drivers
- Unlocked Bootloader
- Working Brain
How to:
Unlock Bootloader:
Unlocking Method
Our Aquaris X2 PRO is locked and needs to be unlocked before flashing anything.
STEPS:
1. Connect your phone to your PC using ADB.
2. > adb reboot bootloader
3. Your phone will now enter the fastboot mode
4. > fastboot flashing unlock
5. Your phone will be unlocked.
*** Make a backup of all your data as it might get erased during the process***
*** Warning***
After you unlock the device, it will become less secure. Your personal data might be leaked or lost.
Please think twice before flashing your phone and do it at your own risk.
Root / install Magisk:
Step 1:
Download the latest Magisk Manager from this Link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
And install the APK File.
Step 2:
Download the patched boot image for your firmware version (See attached screenshot):
Aquaris X2 PRO
Version 1.3.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.3.0.img
Version 1.4.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.4.0.img
Version 1.5.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.5.0.img
Version 1.6.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.6.0.img
Version 1.7.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.7.0.img
Version 1.7.1_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.7.1.img
Version 1.7.2_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2pro/patched_boot_1.7.2.img
---
Aquaris X2 Thanks to tomparr for providing the images!
Version 1.3.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.3.0.img
Version 1.4.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.4.0.img
Version 1.5.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.5.0.img
Version 1.5.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.6.0.img
Version 1.7.0_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.7.0.img
Version 1.7.1_x:
https://tt-services.de/xda/aquarisx2/patched_boot_1.7.1.img
Step 3:
Use ADB to boot into Bootloader:
> adb reboot bootloader
Now try if the patched Boot Image will work for you:
> fastboot boot <<path to boot image>>
Now the Device should boot with this Image.
Check if the device will boot as expected and take a look at the Magisk Manager APP to check if everything has succeeded.
Sometimes this will not always work as expected. If your device stuck at the Android one screen try to flash the image directly (See next step)
If so you can flash the Boot image with the folowing Steps:
> adb reboot bootloader
> fastboot flash boot <<path to boot image>>
Done! :fingers-crossed:
