Introduction:
---------------------
TeamWin Recovery Project, or twrp for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features that we deemed missing from current recoveries. After a lot of hard work for weeks, we are happy to announce the release of twrp.
Key Features:
---------------------
- Clean, simple, intuitive Menu System
- Ability to save custom recovery settings
º Default partitions to back up
º Default zip folder location
º Default color theme (lots to choose from) (Thanks to ffolkes!)
º Default Time Zone (for more accurate time stamps; US time zones only for now)
º Zip Verification
- Ability to select which individual partitions to backup, and restore.
- Ability to choose compression or no compression backups.
º Compression takes longer of course, but you save roughly half the space. You choose.
- Ability to auto restore GAPPS on zip flash (for CM based ROMS)
- Ability to auto reboot after successful flashes (for the lazy)
- Capacitate Button functions
º Home - Main Menu
º Menu - Advanced Menu
º Back - Up a Menu Level
º Search - Select Current Selection
- Battery Level and Timestamp (Better safe than sorry)
Known Issues:
---------------------
- Capacitative Buttons sometimes bug out after a while, but this does not hinder twrp in any way. (happens in aosp recoveries)
- While working on twrp, TeamWin's top race horse ran off, if you find him please let us know. (Emo Horse was found!)
Disclaimer:
---------------------
As usual, use at your own risk. TeamWin is not responsible for anything bad that may occur from using twrp. We do however take responsible for the awesomeness that comes with it. Don't be a d3rp and use twrp for bad. With great power, comes great responsibility.

- Fixed EFS partition issues
- Changed the way we do backups on mtd devices, which should fix any boot partition issues
(we suggest making new backups if you have an mtd device, EVO4G,NS,NS4G,etc)
2011-07-31 - v1.0.2
- Fixed SD-EXT issues
- Added Format SD-EXT into format menu
- Removed GAPPS support, CM7 automatically backsup and restores if you already have GAPPS installed. If you don't, just flash GAPPS zip

- Rearranged the format menu
2011-07-30 - v1.0.1
- initial release on EVO 4G
FAQ
FAQ:
Install as a Flashable Zip? [RECOMMENDED]
Download flashable zip from the OP and rename it "PC36IMG.zip" (without the quotes)
Place in the root of the sdcard
Power off phone (make sure you turn off hot boot or pull the battery when it's off)
Power on the phone holding power and volume down
Follow the prompts to flash it
Delete .zip (PC36IMG.zip) after booting
Enjoy
How to install with Fastboot:
Download the fastboot binary for your computer from HTC
Connect your phone and boot it into fastboot
Run fastboot with the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery path/to/recovery-twrp-supersonic-1.X.X.img
Does this back up Wimax partition?
That is an option if you chose. Recommended to make at least one backup of just wimax and store that somewhere safe.
Why should I use this over ClockworkMod or Amon Ra?
Feature comparison matrix!
While all three recoveries offer roughly the same abilities (backup, restore, flash) we feel like ours adds a bit more in addition to the basics as well as blend some of the more useful features. A few differences to hightlight:
USB Mass Storage mode (Not in CWM)
Re-organized menus with most commonly used features on top
Saveable settings for all preferences selected
Date and battery display (configurable timezones)
Ability to auto-reboot after flashing
Color themes
Capacitive button support
Go a head and give it a try! You've got nothing to lose. If you don't like it you can always roll back to whatever recovery you want. Of course, shift might go all Emo Pony on us, but he'll get over it.
I found a bug! What do I do?
Well you're probably going to want to post here and see if other people are having the same issue. We're also going to start tracking bugs on Github along with our project. This will let you see what issues we are aware of. You can submit a bug here: https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues Be sure to include how you came about the issue as well as list your device and how you installed twrp.
Post all twrp supersonic questions in here, thanks!
Moar winning...
Excellent job guys
This is just a recovery right? Not anything to do with 2.3.3 root right?

36. That's probably the 3D's file name haha
Sorry about the .zip name, my bad. It's fixed now. A little too much copy pasta.
Many thanks to TeamWin for this, it is the perfect match for Cyanogen.

Just one. We want everyone to adopt the new edify standard.
Will this work with Sense (based) ROMs, or only AOSP?

OP - currently being updated, I am successfully quad booting mwakious 12.3, pa 9-8-2012, aokp jb build 2.1 and stock gb Rom (rooted)
VIDEO IN POST 2
First things first
S-off and Root required.
At the moment, Aroma scripted Roms are not yet compatible on slot 2, unless restoring from a Nand backup, which is pre configured
IF YOU WANT FULL DUAL BOOTING ENSURE SECOND ROM IS "GAPPS INSTALLED" AND WITH WORKING INTERNET {DATA/WIFI}
1. ensure your happy with the current state of your main/daily rom
2. NAND - back it up
3. download, install and configure either the free https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager.lite&feature=search_result boot manager lite app
or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.drx2.bootmanager&feature=search_result the pro version
4. NAND - back it up (not necessary, but advised)
5. download your secondary rom zip
6. open your downloaded bootloader app and slide accross to slot 1
7. install your chosen rom (do not wipe anything on first install)
DO NOT BOOT SECONDARY ROM
8. NAND - back it up, again (if your low on sd space, delete your earliest nand, and then next etc etc)
9. open boot manager when booted, and slide to slot 1, and boot rom
10. "Ta da". your now dual booting,
If you find that your phone can't create boot.IMG , navigate to the root of your sd, find the boot.IMG file, delete it, then restart bootmanager , and it should create it without problems
if you ever run into problems, pull the battery, boot to hboot, select recovery, and flash the update.zip inside the phoneRom directory. It writes your backed up boot image. thanks too $MyName for making this common knowledge
PLEASE READ, ALL INFO HERE
http://init2winitapps.com/stories/BMManual.html
DO NOT RUN V6 SUPERCHARGER ON ANY ROM OTHER THAN PHONE ROM, YOU WILL GET STUCK IN A BOOT LOOP
IF YOU FIND YOU CANT SWITCH BETWEEN ROMS, ITS BECAUSE YOUR NOT SIGNED INTO GOOGLE , AND OR YOU DONT HAVE A DATA/WIFI CONNECTION,
BUT DONT WORRY, WE MADE BACK UPS, IF YOU WANT TO GO TO YOUR FIRST ROM AGAIN, JUST RESTORE YOUR NAND
Thanks to Pauly_k , for bringing the app to my attention
