[CLOSED] TWRP 3.3.1-1 for Pixel 3A [OFFICIAL] - Google Pixel 3a ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or TWRP3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Code:
[I]#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* Your warranty is not void.
*
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this recovery
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
*
*/[/I]
Pixel devices have 2 "slots" for ROMs / firmware. TWRP will detect whichever slot is currently active and use that slot for backup AND restore. There are buttons on the reboot page and under backup -> options to change slots. Changing the active slot will cause TWRP to switch which slot that TWRP is backing up or restoring. You can make a backup of slot A, switch to B, then restore the backup which will restore the backup of A to slot B. Changing the slot in TWRP also tells the bootloader to boot that slot.
Note: Please be aware that you cannot install this without a kernel with LZMA compression support, I believe most ROMs have included my commit for this so you should be good for all custom ROMs and kernels (Not Android 10), if not please file a request to the maintainer.
To follow up, please be aware that TWRP is currently not compatible with Android 10. If you would like to use TWRP you will need to go back to Android 9. If you would like more information you can read at the link here.
Installation:
If you already have TWRP installed: Download the latest zip and install the zip using TWRP.
If you do not already have TWRP installed: Download both the img and the zip. You will need to have fastboot binaries and the correct drivers installed. Power off your device completely. Hold volume down and turn on the device. Your device should now be in the bootloader. Connect the device to your PC. Open a command window and run the following command from the proper location:
fastboot boot path/to/twrp.img
This will temporarily boot TWRP on your device. Use ADB or MTP to transfer the zip onto your device.
Go to install and browse to the zip and install the zip. The zip will install TWRP to both boot slots. Installing TWRP at this time will remove root if you are currently rooted.
If you accidently flash TWRP to your device using fastboot instead of temporarily booting the image, you will need to download the latest factory image for your device and reflash the boot image.
Changelog:
[BETA]
3.3.1-0: Initial release for Pixel 3A devices
3.3.1-1: Fixed having to manually change slots before rebooting.
3.3.1-2: Updated to July blobs!
3.3.1-3: Can now install TWRP to boot image. ADB, MTP, LOGD, Repack Tools and Logcat have all been removed to save the necessary space for this to work. You can grab stuff while in the OS, then flash it in TWRP (Keep in mind I have only tested this on stock as of now, feel free to test it on whatever ROM you use. It should work, but let me know if it doesn't).
3.3.1-4: Changed back to LZMA compression, also added back all the features besides ADB/Logcat. As long as your kernel supports LZMA you will be able to take advantage of installing it permanently without having to worry about space restrictions.
3.3.1-5:
Add persist entry to fstab
* To allow TWRP to store a backup settings file on /persist
and also to be used as QCOM time fix source during early boot.
Revert "Don't include logcat."
Revert "Don't include repack tools."
3.3.1-6:
Revert "Revert "Don't include repack tools.""
Add haptics firmware.
* This obviously on it's own isn't enough to get haptics working for the 3A in TWRP, but its a start.
Don't include a precompiled update_engine_sideload
* This should fix the issue of flashing officials for StatiXOS
[STABLE]
3.3.1-0: Initial official release!

Incredible job thank you!

Thank you for all your guys hard work. I can't imagine the work involved

Congratulations and thank you for your time and effort.

This is awesome brother,,,if it werent for you we would not have a custom recovery! Thank you!

Thanks mate

Thank you!!!!!!!!
Shoud we allow Modifications or Keep Read Only when we boot for the first time?

WOOHOO!!! Thank you for this, it's so exciting!!!
Quick question: the instructions say there is also a zip to download but I didn't see it in anywhere. Do we really need it? TWRP did boot up temporarily just fine!

Magisk pushed a cannery build that roots for the Pixel 3s on Q4 last night.
Also, the Magisk dev has a Pixel 3 on Q4 (not 3a) that is his daily driver. So because of the similar file systems, it's good news for us on P3a.

For root It should even without TWRP. Pull the boot.img from the beta, modify it with Magisk Manager then Fastboot flash the modified boot image.
I have not tried it yet. I am still trying to spell canary correctly. :laugh:

Not sure how many of you have tested this thing out, but I can confirm it works on the stock rom. I had to root for a Titanium Backup, so I flashed Magisk through TWRP and rebooted just fine.

Finnaly!! Good work to OP who worked hard to get us this TWRP!

I wanted to try it tomorrow, but it seems ill better wait for a new update on the canary build:
https://github.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/blob/master/canary_builds/notes.md
-> see the notes for the latest build. Afaik we need logical partition support or root will not work (correctly)
I'm also thinking if i can just pull boot.img via twrp backup (then extract if needed) or should i pull it via fastboot.
Really the userdata wipe holds me back (when OEM unlocking the device.)
Guess i will wait when root is successfully reported on P3 by topjohnwu, just to be sure.

[UPDATED][2017.11.6][Magisk] Root Pixel 2 (XL)

Pixel 2 (XL) is now officially added on the Magisk support list, please install Magisk v14.5+. These builds here are deprecated
Check out the latest beta from the official beta thread
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Root for Pixel 2 XL has been achieved!
There are still some things I'd like to add before I push out an official release, but since people can't wait to ROOT their shiny new Pixel 2s, I figured I'd build one for you!
I do not own either Pixel 2 or Pixel 2 XL, so testing is limited. This build is ONLY tested on Pixel 2 XL Android 8.0 OPD1.170816.010.
For Android 8.1 beta, Pixel 2 etc, it should work IN THEORY.
Magisk Version: v14.4 (code: 1444)
Magisk Manager Version: 5.4.1 (code: 58)​
Instructions
Since TWRP cannot decrypt /data yet, the proper way to install Magisk is via Magisk Manager. You will need a stock boot image from official factory images.
Download MagiskManager-v5.4.1.apk from attachments and install it to your device.
This Magisk Manager is specifically built for this release ONLY, both stable and beta channels points to the same custom URL.
Once you've got Magisk Manager installed, I'll just copy and paste the instructions from the Magisk OP here:
This method does not need root, and also does not require a custom recovery.
Press Install > Install > Patch Boot Image File, and select your stock boot image file
Magisk Manager will now patch your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img
Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Voilà!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Please don't share a patched boot image in the forums since it will help no one. Flashing a patched boot image alone is not sufficient to run Magisk properly. The "patch through Magisk Manager" step is actually mandatory if you wonder why.
Special Thanks
@nathanchance for his Pixel 2 XL and speedy tests
@Dees_Troy for TWRP on Pixel 2 XL - thanks to TWRP's root shell, the debugging process is 1000 times faster
Donations
I spent endless hours on Magisk. If you like my work, feel free to donate.

P.S. Magisk-v14.4(1444).zip is also hosted here because I do not have my own server
Reserved
Donating later
Glad to help be a part of testing and here's to the future of root
Thank you @topjohnwu!!!
Thanks again! Also for people using BusyBox it goes in /system/bin

Can we use a custom kernel like the Snoke kernel from Despair after we root or will it break root?
Also I've seen a few posts about needing to do this before any Google accounts are on the phone, etc. Any truth to any of those; or just flash original boot back on and follow your instructions?
Thanks for all your work!
Install snokes kernel first then root with magisk
Hopefully will have a 2 XL coming and will be happy to test this on 8.1.
I would flash snokes first, then root with magisk , also I have Google account in my device and am not encrypted in twrp
Sweetness! Thanks all for getting this going.

I tested it with Google accounts already on my phone.
I don't know if Snoke uses AnyKernel2 or a boot image. If it uses a boot image, just patch that with Magisk Manager and flash it (that's what I did with my kernel). If it uses AnyKernel, flash the Magisk patched boot image then Snoke.
Also, to be clear to everyone, this works with encrypted data and SELinux enforcing.

I already have Snoke kernel on the device. I was going to wipe userdata to unencrypt my phone as well. I'm just going to be happy to get root so I can tibu over my apps and data easily and quit using my opt for my dd.

Don't necessarily think it's the wisest to rely on TWRP right now but not my call in which case, Magisk can be flashed whenever since Snoke isn't going to mess with any internal patching that Magisk does (or shouldn't...)

You mean this? https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/scripts/util_functions.sh
It's just a helper script while flashing, it isn't used once things are installed.
how do you do the final step: " Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Voilà!"?

[RECOVERY][jason] Official TWRP touch recovery for Xiaomi Mi Note 3

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.
*
*/
Features:
All function in a normal TWRP
Multi-language support
Support USB OTG!
Support decrypt /data!
Tips:
For unknown reason, after formatting userdata in TWRP, you won't be able to boot stock MIUI as encryption will fail. The fix is flashing factory images via MiFlash or just flash factory userdata.img via fastboot.
Decrypt Oreo userdata is NOT supported, I'll release an Oreo compatible build after it's a thing.The latest version already supports decrypting Oreo data
Install guide:
1. Install fastboot tools from google's sdk on your PC
2. Enter fastboot mode
3. Unlock your bootloader
4. Run "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" in command line
5. Reboot and enjoy it

Somebody has Test with xiaomi.eu rom 8.1.11? Touch in recovery works?
Does OTG still work with one of the newer dev ROMs installed?? After installing Xiaomi.eu ROM 8.1.11, OTG stopped working for me with a different TWRP version, TWRP_3.2.1-3_jason-v2, that I downloaded from another site.

hello,
I am not allowed to start a new topic (at least not yet) so I will ask here, maybe someone can help me.
I have unlocked my MiNote3 (official way). I have installed all needed drivers on the PC (win 7) and tried to install latest TWRP on the phone.
I managed to install it but is not booting in TWRP when I press power and Vol+ or any other buttons combination.
Any idea why is not working?
I also tried to install another ROM (global developer instead of stable) but the phone is not entering in EDL mode. It's just restarting.
Any idea why?
Thanks
I am using this TWRP and the unlock pattern always appears before starting the android. Do you know how to turn it off?

When you flash TWRP using adb and if everything went well type after this command :
fastboot boot twrp.img
You need to immediately after flashing twrp ,boot into it and set it up so on the next restart it wont get overwritten by stock recovery.
So the full process should be like this :
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img
Yep i use that one too. Works like a charm!

Thank you for advice. It's working now but the TWRP doesn't stay installed.
After first reboot in Miui Stable is deleting it.
I tried everything but is just removed.
Shall I install custom rom (from Xiaomi.eu) when I enter first time in TWRP?
Will there be any issue when booting after the new ROM will be installed?
I just want to avoid bricking the devices.
Has anyone had trouble with the screen not registering touches in TWRP? I tried two different versions of TWRP and when my phone boots into it, the screen won't respond to any presses. It only worked the first time when I flashed xiaomi.eu.
Edit: I've realised that TWRP is unresponsive only if my phone doesn't vibrate when it restarts prior to entering TWRP. When it's unresponsive, I force a restart into TWRP by pressing the power button and volume up button simultaneously. The phone is never unresponsive when booting normally, so it's not clearly a hardware issue. However, it occurs in two different builds of TWRP that I've tried. Any suggestions?
Edit 2: I see I'm not the only one. https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/twrp-3-1-1-0-no-working-touch-with-new-roms.42800/

[RECOVERY LOCKED/Nougat/7.0][G955U/W] Safestrap Recovery v4.09 B01 [Apr 19, 2019]

Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Snapdragon)
PLEASE READ READ READENTIRE OP
"ALL MAJOR WORK DONE BY HASHCODE SO GO GIVE HIM SOM THANKS.DO NOT POST ANY BUG OR ISSUE COUSED BY THIS RECOVERY IN ORIGINAL THREAD BY HASHCODE, POST HERE AND I WILL HELP YOU."
CURRENT PROJECT STATUS:
BETA v4.09-B01 [Nougat:7.0]
WHAT IS SAFESTRAP?
Safestrap is a Bootstrap / Recovery for locked bootloader phones. The goal is to avoid touching your primary system (I'll call this "stock" system) and only flash or make large changes to another place on your phone that Safestrap treats as a "2nd system" (in this case, it's a series of virtual ROM slots located on the internal emmc area: "/sdcard"). Once installed, you will see a "Splashscreen" giving you the option to hit "menu" to enter recovery. The recovery portion of Safestrap is now based on TWRP 3.2.1 (a touch based recovery) and you can perform .zip installs, backups and restores here. The additional features I've added to TWRP are mostly located under the "Boot Options" menu:
Here you can create virtual ROM-slots for flashing ROMs. NOTE: The bigger you make the /data partition the less room you will have to make other ROM-slots.
You can activate a new ROM-slot by choosing the slot you wish to make active and then selecting the "Activate" button. Once active, you will see the "rom-slot#" up in the top of the screen shown in green. If you make the "stock" ROM active, then you can see it in the top shown in red.
Once a ROM-slot is active, all actions you would normally perform using TWRP are directed to that ROM-slot. For example, "Install" to flash a .zip, backup and restore.
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
Requirement: Root
APK install:
Once installed, open up the Safestrap application, Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
HOW DO I ENTER RECOVERY?
During each reboot a splashscreen will be displayed showing whether the device is running a rom-slot or on the "Stock ROM".
Press the button shown on the screen to either enter "RECOVERY" or "CONTINUE" booting (or the hard button underneath each option).
HOW DO I UPGRADE SAFESTRAP?
APK:
Push the APK up to your sdcard.
Boot back into the "stock" rom-slot.
Open your old Safestrap app and use the "Uninstall Recovery" button
Browse to where you pushed the APK
Click on it and install like normal
Once installed, open the APK, Grant SU access, Use the "Install Recovery" button.
Flashable zip:
Flash using Safestrap recovery or FlashFire.
KNOWN ISSUES:
- Sometimes the installation doesn't work correctly. If you don't see the splashscreen after a rebooting. Install Safestrap again.
DOWNLOADS:

WARNING: Safestrap is heavily modified to be "Safe" for your device. Do not download TWRP from their website and expect it to work the same way. Also TWRP does not support Safestrap, tho some issues that may come up will be TWRP dependant, please try and contact myself or look on the forums for your device for answers before hunting down TWRP people. They won't be able to help w/ Safestrap specific questions.
Special Thanks To

Just to clarify, when I downgrade from 8.0 to 7.0 to obtain root, boot the rooted ROM then
install busybox and safestrap.apk before reflashing Oreo and that will run alongside Rooted QL1 in a second ROM slot under safestrap?? I apologise if I misread instructions, it's been a while as I haven't used safestrap since my s3 years ago
Edit: just saw the ROM slots not working, and the new Oreo modified thread. Lol

thank you.
@afaneh92 Do you have sources for this recovery? As in how did you get it to work with android 7 when safestrap support ended in KK. I'd like to boot it on LP+.

Here its
https://github.com/mohammad92/android_bootable_recovery-safestrap
We have permissive root on S8, S8+ and Note 8 thats why its working on 7.0+
Would this allow us to flash magisk? Or a custom kernel?

Could a Dev make a DT and possibly build a rom with this new freedom to flash things? Cause as far as I know all you need is a DT and a way to compile and you should be fine right? Or will the whole no custom kernel thing prevent that.
Would I be able to install this on Nougat, and then update to Oreo and keep it installed?
Then from there add a Nougat ROM with root so that I could update it and use my root stuff.
This is awesome! Recovery is working great so far! Pls let me know of any roms working with this method I can't wait to try it out!

Appreciate the new recoveries. Looking forward to your custom rom, bro! Thanks for your hard work :highfive:.
Edit:
Flashed OrangeFox-R8.0-nitrogen.zip and it just goes to fastboot. Booted phone as well and then reboot from there and power + volume up takes me to fastboot. I tested three new downloads of the orange recovery and all took me to fastboot instead of recovery. Flashed back to TWRP 3.2.3.0 using twrp app without a problem and booted into that recovery. Then, I flashed Pitch Black recovery without any problems. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Ok, downloading now. Will report back, thanks.
Edit: .img didn't flash - "flash failed." I used twrp app - same way I flashed pitch black recovery image when previous orange fox zip would remain stuck on fastboot screen.

No, downloaded and used the latest .img above the zip in androidfilehost. I'll test the zip now.
Edit:
Just flashed the zip using pitch black recovery. Both the image and the zip file have the same problem. They both, like your first version, reboot to fastboot instead of recovery. I just flashed back to pitch black without issue using twrp app. Maybe check the script in case fastboot reboot line is in there by mistake?

What are the improvements/changes? Last few didn't boot for mi max 3.
Edit: I flashed it, and it didn't work just like all the previous versions. Leads straight to fastboot screen.
Edit2: @DarthJabba9 fixed the build. Latest version, which he will post shortly works great. This is definitely a nicer/cleaner recovery. I highly recommend it! Thanks, buddy!

Installed Orange Fox recovery,
But backup is only 2GB, I now it has more data to backup. It is also asking for Encryption password on start. How could I find this Password?

Maybe you want to explain, step by step, from the beginning to the end, how you got to this point?
It's a hardware generated key(FDE), not a password per say so you can't get it. The recovery needs more work to be able to support it and decrypt device automatically at boot just like the rom does...
Something like this: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_...mmit/05137578dc6d382c159c3abc8c2f181f7490d6e5

It does it already. And I doubt that regressing to Marshmallow code will improve anything.

[RECOVERY][3.7.0-12.1][DIPPER] TWRP - unofficial

Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you.

- Decrypt works
- Mtp works
- Adb works

It's fully functional in LineageOS and probably most ROMs with to his bases, like CrDroid (tested).
Not work on Pixel Experience and most ROMs who uses Pixel Experience tree's (Evolution, PixelPlusUI and others more).
I assume this provides decryption support for Android 12?

So has anybody tested it and confirms decryption works with Android 12 (Lineage 19.1) ? Is this still under active development, maybe we should rebase on new twrp sources

Works for me. It seems to me that the decryption process is quite slower than it used to be on LOS18.1, but at least it works.

Work in LineageOS 19.1 and in CrDroid 8.x but only in this ROMs at last
And update is Available for A13 ROM's
Now fixed flash for CrDroid and evolution X A13 ROM
Thank you very much for this TWRP version. I've installed LineageOS 19.1 official 11/03/2022 version a few days ago using your TWRP version and this worked fine.
Not sure if its normal behaviour, but before I formatted my data I updated TWRP "3.5.x" to "3.7.0-12.1 V2 Unofficial by LuMorningStarr". After this I was not able to decrypt my phone (running LineageOS 18.1).
After formatting/wiping the phone I was able to install LineageOS 19.1 with MindTheGapps and everything went well. I have tried to reboot into TWRP after installing LineageOS 19.1 and I was able to decrypt my phone. Will have to see if updating the rom will also work, but seems promising.

Version 3.7 v2 is for the most current ones that use a change in boot mode, the official version should be more beneficial over using older versions like Android 11 and below.
The one I created is for 12 and above that uses system ext and the new boot mode
Hi guys,
please help me out. I try to install los 20 with twrp decryption.
Here is what I try:
Bootloader is unlocked, I used los 19 before.
Flash stock rom dipper global V12.0.3.0.QEAMIXM.
Enable ADB USB debugging.
Reboot into Fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_3.7.0-12.1_dipper_system-ext_V2.img
Reboot into Recovery.
Wipe > Format Data.
Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Dalvik + Data + System.
Reboot into Recovery, because Data is not there(?).
=> Decryption gone: All folders in /sdcard/ have cryptic names.
I'm sure, I do something stupid, please help me.
I'm not into en/decryption in Android at all. Maybe I can not use encryption at all? Or is this not good?

Yeah... Ask in Lineage thread
Thank you for your answer, sorry if I bothered you.
Its working now.
Insead of the wiping in your recovery I used lineageos recovery (Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset), then switched back to your recovery for installing rom.

And which 3.7.0-12.1 should I pick (V1 or V2) when I want to Update from LOS 18.1 to LOS 19.1?
I have already installed TWRP 3.7.0_9-0.
I don't want to wipe my whole phone like @tharonny just to get LOS 19.1 running.

It's impossible update android 11 to 12 without loose your data... Better make and backup of your files and make the upgrade... Always
V2 work for both
On the contrary, I've dirty flash updated from 10 to 12 without problems. With the minor hiccup that the 3.7.0-12.1 twrp was no longer able to decrypt the old A-10 partition. But after installing and booting A-12, encryption was upgraded and twrp worked again.
(pays off to have an usb-c connectable usb stick ready in case of decrypt issues)

So you flashed the new ROM with the old TWRP and flashed the TWRP from here right after the A12-Update via your USB-connectable Stick?
