What you mean with "Easy rooting"? I used already but I not found anything related to rooting :/

This recovery is buggy, i can backup data but can't restore it, also maybe we need official TWRP

I agree. It may look nice but it's sluggish, buggy and is a pain in the butt to unlock its lockscreen. Regular TWRP is a billion times better

I used this TWRP about 2 months without any problems, almost on a daily basis.
Countless of backup/restores...
It is necessary only to turn off the screen timeout in settings, like in all versions of TWRP's.

This recovery working normaly with me.

I use this recovery since I've got my phone ( 2 mounths) and it works perfectly ! Backup/Restore works everytime, you can change the unlock method or just disable the time-out... Easy root mean that the recovery see when you have an un-root ROM and when you choose Restart System will ask you to flash SuperSU ( ex: MIUI Stable ROM ).

I use that recovery and backup and restore works fine for me.

Hmm wait, i remember,i had mounted system partition before i restore my backup, mount system partition is buggy if i want to flash / restore something maybe :/

Hi,
Followed the instructions but every time I try to install it I get the following error (see picture)
I'm on MIUI Global 7.1.1.0 (LHMMICK) Stable.
What am I doing wrong?

The best way is to flash it using SP Flash ! I've flashed it like this and I never loss my TWRP recovery !

But do I have to unzip the file first to get the scatter file in to SP Flash?

I've used this ( 7.0.8.0 fastboot ). I don't know, maybe they are all the same
Use what you want !

* Mi PC Suite (for the drivers)
* ADB Fastboot Tool
* materialized_twrp287_hermes.img
rename it into recovery.img & move it to ADB Fastboot Directory.
Connect your phone
MSDOS :
Change directory to ADB Fastboot directory
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
disconnect & reboot by press power + vol up.

[TWRP] TWRP/No-Verity Kernel for Moto E5 (Nora)(XT1944-2/-4)

Hi guys, today I'm going to explain you, how to use TWRP and also how to disable forced encryption
Very Important!!!!
Works for all ROMs included stock ROM
Take a backup of boot partition with TWRP in case of something goes wrong
Pre-requisites
1.- Unlocked Bootloader
2.- PC, drivers installed and plattform tools folder: https://www.dropbox.com/s/c3c8rev5e40gy5b/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip?dl=0
3.- TWRP for Moto E5 Play by @CodyF86 : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832239867
4. No verity kernel by @MotoJunkie01 (Only for XT1944-2 or XT1944-4!!!!) : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NcyuFRgvvRiS5MT5Jxl3uS3XHCnULBMc/view
5. fstab.qcom by CodyF86 also: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=674106145207491856
Procedure
1.- While you have downloaded all necessary files, go to platform tools folder, and put there TWRP image
2.- Reboot your phone onto fastboot/bootloader, then open cmd and boot into TWRP with this code: fastboot boot twrp_james.img (don't try to flash it because it won't work, and you will need to do that in order to use TWRP, all the time!!!)
3.- While you are in TWRP, go to bakcup and select everything, put the backup into SD Card to prevent some accidents. (The time that it will take depends on how much things you have on your phone)
4.- When backup it's done reboot to bootloader and flash the no-verity kernel
5.- Reboot system
6.- Then use some root explorer, this one is free and very useful https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691
7.- Copy downloaded fstab.qcom and go to vendor/etc, the replace the file with the new one and reboot
8.- Boot again into TWRP, and swipe for factory reset, then format data (Remember that you'll lost your data
9.- Reboot the device, and wait.
This method is easier than the other and works fine, if you go to settings/security you'll see that device is encrypted but if you open that option, you'll notice that encryption is gone.*
Thanks to @MotoJunkie01 for the kernel
Thanks to @CodyF86 for TWRP and fstab.qcom

Maybe, try by your own risk, make a backup of boot partition because is the one that you'll need in case of something goes wrong

Thread updated, I've noticed that the previous method didn't work at all, and also I discovered that stock rom works fine without encryption, then if stock is decrypted, other roms won't be encrypted anymore

No verity kernel link is down pls re-upload it bro

hello first congratulations for this tutorial and your work, but there is a small problem with the famous no-verity ^^ it is impossible to download would it be possible to have new links? thank you in advance!!

Hi there. I tried a thousand times now ... no succeed. Everytime I try to boot to twrp_james.img the screen is not accessable anymore. No interaction possible.
Switching device off -> switching device on .... even the "swipe to unlock" doesn't work. I use Motorola Moto E5 Nora XT1944-2.
Any ideas?!

I have the same problem, I tried everything.
I'm unable to use TWRP (james).
after "fastboot boot twrp_james.img"
TWRP comes up with the Mount/dycrypt your data screen, a mouse pointer is visible in the middle. No user interaction is possible twrp doesn't seem to respond to touch screen user input.
Also the "No verity kernel by @MotoJunkie01 (Only for XT1944-2 or XT1944-4!!!!) : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ncy...XHCnULBMc/view" link is dead. Can someone reupload this files.
Does anybody have a fix for this problem? I'm using the Moto E5 XT1944-2.

I found a solution to use twrp on the Moto E5 Nora XT1944-2:
Use a micro usb to usb adapter (OTG adapter) and connect a mouse to you phone, now you can use twrp using the mouse.

Live l1 and lite l1 is a completely different devices

This TWRP actually partially works for Live L1 (ZA550KL, SD425). The problems are 1) it can't decrypt /data, 2) it fails to mount /xrom (which is inexistent on the Go variant) and 3) no ADB/MTP, but for flashing ROMs/addons, backing up and restoring, it works nicely. Just letting y'all know about it.

Can you link me to the one you know of? I just found another one from TWRP Builder, and it did fix most problems, but I still can't use decrypted data (shows "encryption unsuccessful" on boot). And it doesn't expose /vendor either which is a small letdown. <- Fixed by unpacking and editing recovery.fstab.

I used a GSI to update from Oreo to Pie. But the TWRP has only 2 options (boot & Recovery) to flash the .img file. However, I did a restore & back with the old Oreo. I want to upgrade my Asus Lite 1 to Pie!! Is there any possibility to get the mobile back to the factory state including recovery? So, that I can begin from one.

About Team win recovery project
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.

Nokia 7.2 is an A/B system, not sure where you would get a recovery.img
Additionally, coming from 00WW_1_200 (September update), WiFi module fails after flashing TWRP, and it seems you have to reflash original kernel/boot.img to get the WiFi back. It would be helpful if someone is willing/able to provide it.

The reason behind this we need a proper kernel sources from hmd Nokia . For that reason i used prebuilt kernel from stock rom and that rom is based on August so here August kernel & wifi modules signed with different keys and September kernel & wifi modules signed with different keys so here August kernel and September wifi modules signatures are different that's why wifi got broken

You have to flash twrp According to your security patch
For example September security patch download from 2019-09-19
For example August security patch download from
2019-08-19
And also if you want to boot back to twrp after flashing twrp and rebooting in to system
Just power off your phone and reboot to download mode and press reboot to recovery now you will boot in to twrp.
If you know what exactly you are doing you won't get confused just follow steps
If you still can't able to boot then you are unlucky because all of the people who viewed this thread successfully booted as well

i have model TA-1193 on november 5 security patch, os version is 00ww_1_200_SP01.
was able to successfully un lock bootloader today. Which TWRP should i flash? there are multiple images in https://sourceforge.net/projects/ddv-sprout/files/TWRP/PIE/2019-11-05/\
tried Flashing all the recoveries from the folder, wifi doesnt work.! any help how to fix it?

I wiped my SD card, now instead of 256GB it shows as 16MB, any ideas? Crap, now when i boot into Recovery, i just get a dead robot and 'No Command".

Why do the instructions here say to flash it to the boot partition, but the instructions on the twrp site say to flash it to the recovery partition? IMO recovery makes more sense but I'm no expert.
Which one is correct?
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
or
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I've had bat luck flashing things to boot in the past so want to make sure.
----- EDIT -----
Nvm my silly question. I've been out of the loop for a while and didn't realise there isn't even a recovery partition anymore. I've now flashed TWRP, boots up fine. No issues with anything on the stock rom afterwards.
However, my question now is how to get TWRP to work with the internal storage? I wanted to make a somewhat stock backup before rooting and the internal storage is full of jibberish folders and files. (See attached image)

Well even I appreciate the work of this guy, you have to be careful. 1st - if you on Nokia 7.2 keep in mind that all his stuff based not on Nokia 7.2 sources because Nokia not released any souses yet. 2nd - he warned about it if read carefully. 3rd - all his ROMs for Nokia 7.2 have same trouble as LineageOS and treble. I prefer stay on stock with MicroG, at least all stuff works. 4th - for internal access from twrp you have flash DisableForceEncryption_Treble. Don't use Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_10.20.2019 it has bugs and not works. Just look for same name as I give Disable_Forse_Encryption_Treble. Careful with, it removes encryption but leaves verity in tact. Read all warning about using it, google in help. After reboot in twrp you would read internal and data. Hope that helps. Also check version twrp that he uploading, they base on security patch and I guess it have to match your system. But I'm using fine 11/28 on august security patch.
O, and one more thing - don't relay completely on twrp backups, they not working in 100%, just try restore before. Good luck.

Thanks for the tips boomo15. I ended up installing the Lineage OS rom though.
WiFi works now, data is decrypted and the other system UI crashing bug I had has gone as well. Very pleased with the phone now.
NFC and DDTW don't work and cam quality is poor but even with those issues Lineage is still preferable to me.

As I told before stock works best for me, but last week I install AOSP phh_treble version for Pie 123. Since 109 a lot off better.All works smooth and fine, detects my sim card w/o problems (got 1 sim not dual). Replaced camera (crashed all time) with ported by Balu GCam works fine for me. Got one issue - can send sms but can't receive. Tried fix myself but no luck, so asked for help on AOSP treble tread. Hope somebody know what's going on. Don't use NFC can't tell if it works or not.

That' strange about SMS. Did you set your APN correctly? Or does your carrier auto set it like mine does?
Also for NFC could you see if you have the option for it in settings? It should be around WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.

Not sure about your version, I got Nokia 7.2 TA-1178 no any problems on stock. The problem that I experienced with was when I used Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_10. - bootloop. For root I used Magisk versions from 19.3-20.2 w/o any problems. Read couple treads above what I used to disable encryption. Also I use w/o problems Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_08.18.2019.zip - it do all job remove encryption and verity if you interested. Also not all backups that I made using TWRP posted here worked.

Okay lets not try it this is my main phone :/

I tried to build TWRP myself using your device tree and the latest stock kernel that I extracted from the OTA. The result was a working wifi module, but whenever I set a device unlock PIN, entering the correct PIN doesn't unlock the device. It just says "Wrong PIN". Do you have any thoughts about what could be happening? I'm at a loss.

Question Fastboot Boot TWRP wipes OS

As mentioned in the title, fastboot booting a twrp.img to enter a temp TWRP seems to completely wipe everything else on the device, including the current OS. To bypass this I'm using a method in one of the guides using a nonflagged twrp.img to format data, re-fastboot boot into recovery, unmount-remount data. This allows me access to storage again so I can flash a different ROM. If I make the TWRP permanent, booting from new ROM system into recovery also wipes the OS. I'm not sure what other details to provide but I can answer any questions. Help would be appreciated, thank you!

I have never heard of this problem, what TWRP are you using? Firmware? ROM?

Started with base MIUI, I believe it was 12, then updated to 12.5, so I got hit with ARB from the start. Switched to custom ROM, I went through crDroid, EvoX, and HavocOS before switching to Descendant 12, which is what I'm on now.
I'm pretty sure the issue began when I was flashing 12 after updating to 12.5 (to make sure all the tail ends were cleaned up I suppose) before flashing crDroid.
edit: I flashed stock through MiFlash so it just didn't work and I moved on, no bricking from ARB with TWRP
I've been using the Nebrassy TWRP, following this guide.
I'm not sure what you mean by firmware. I do not use a custom kernel if that is what you're asking.

Try to flash the latest fastboot original MIUI ROM for your device, that normally gets rid of most conflicts, and I would recommend following the flashing steps from CrDroid 8.1

How can I do that when my ARB is higher than stock ROM
Edit: I removed the ARB check in the .bat file and then flashed stock MIUI 12.5.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

}
I get this error after flashing but everything seems fine once booted up.
Edit2: Attempt to flash Descendant 12:
1. Boot into stock ROM, set pin, finish setup
2. Boot into bootloader -> fastboot boot twrp.img
3. Flash descendant.zip -> I get this:
ERROR: failed to mount /system_ext
failed to mount /product
3a. (optionally) make TWRP permanent -> flash current TWRP
same errors
3b. system OS is wiped, sdcard is empty
4. Boot into system. Buggy (most notably audio freezing/cutting out)
4a. fastboot boot twrp.img
4b. OS is wiped, sdcard empty
I tried this twice. First time was 1-3b, second time 1-3, 4-4b.
I will try with the crDroid 8.1 posted TWRP file.
Edit3: using crDroid TWRP file
1. fastboot boot twrp-crdroid.img
2. flash crDroid (auto-flash twrp toggled)
3. reboot recovery
4. flash everything
5. FORMAT VERY IMPORTANT
6. boot system
On further consideration, I made two mistakes. One was getting too fixated on the errors, the other was not formatting after flashing. The twrp file really helped to resolve these issues. Thanks for your help.

what MIUI are you trying to flash? what phone do you have? K40?, F3 global? China?

12.5.5, the latest official ROM. I have F3 global.
Edit: It seems to be more an issue with Descendant than the other ROMs. PEX and crDroid, although also having mounting errors, did not come with the same ones. /vendor is okay, but it seems to be an error when failing to mount /oem and/or /system(.extensions) -- this would make sense, obviously.
I may try HavocOS and some other ROMS at a later time.
