Is there a chance to get an updated version. The reason why I am asking is that I always get errno=13 unable to create folder /external_sd/TWRP when I try to make a backup on my 64gb microsdxc with exFAT. It seems there is a problem in TWRP while writing on exFAT formatted flash media.
I would do it myself compiling TWRP from sources but this is far beyond my knowledge.

please test if exfat is working:good:
but to be on the safe side don't have indispensable files on your card

i am using pawitp's cm11 m5 with its original kernel or iodaks 9.95 cm11 kernel. both provide exfat support for my microsdxc 64gb.

Strange as I can't see exfat in the cyanogenmod t30 kernel may be possible to handle it from userland!?
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk

forget my comment about iodak kernel as I mixed it with my other android device. I am using original cm11 or z-kernel. but its true I have exfat support. maybe its what you say and it comes from a userland module.

Exfat partition mounts fine it's selinux denying labeling of the partition. I need you to test some imgs to know what is necessary and what redundant when I'm ready with building them...

okidoki, i am ready. just let me know.
ps: just for my curiosity. i am going to test if the twrp 2.7.0.1 recovery of my lg o4x is doing the nandroid backup on external_sd with exfat. let's see...

it depends if it's supported in the source tree the recovery was built with or even supported from the kernel
this is with exfat as module from userland (pa just added it the last days ;-P) if it works this should be the best solution i think

bad news. i flashed the image with flashify and tried to make the backup. same error message as before. if you need another kmsg, let me know.

for sure always

well, almost as the version number of your builds always tells 2.7.0.0 i am not really sure wether the new version has been flashed or its still the old version. i trust in flashify as i did not get any error messages during flashing process.

Experiencing Bootloop after TWRP backup.

I m using falcon XT1033 on 5.0.2 lollipop.
Recently I performed a TWRP BACKUP on my device.
After the backup it went into Bootloop.
Only started when I did a factory data reset.
While unlocking too it showed some error. I can't remember the error. But the status shown was 'UNLOCKED'.
Please help.

TWRP 2.8.4 caused problems like bootloop when I took a backup. It showed some kind of error which I can't remember now.

I have not restored. Just took a backup.

New bootloader for open devices (now with real recovery)

Hi all,
I have a great news
http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...for-a-range-of-unlocked-xperia-devices-video/
Bootloader is compatible with open devices roms and also enables real recovery (Volume Down + Power)
to flash recovery partition on device you have to
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Happy Cooking
J
PS.
in case latest software does not appear just press "all Services"
flash latest software available and on top new loader
Just tested, and it works good.
Not having separated recovery is probably the thing that bothered me most in Sony development.
And can confirm PM on 3.10 is working now.
Thanks jerpelea!

Bootloader version you can see in EMMA after you plug in the phone, about certain versions, I don't know.

So is that recovery stays there no matter what firmware/kernel i put on the phone?

Why "CM Recovery"?
CWM is all the time being the Best and popular recovery and have a backup option!
Maybe wrong thread to ask such questions?

It is a wrong thread but screw it.
Because I build CM ROMs and CM recovery is default there.
I do agree that they've dropped CWM way too early, but I think it's not compatible with 5.0 zip layout, so it's either this or TWRP (which is kind of an OmniROM thing).

OK thanks for the reply. I have used the fastboot method to flash the recovery and found no change to that part of the system.
Just flashed new bootloader and yes: PM is working now with latest kernel/AOSP.
Thank you!!
Further testing will be done and posted in other M2 forums.

[XL]Multirom! Anyone up? Test 1

I recently ported MultiROM to Xperia M and I have the sources up and I am willing not to waste them.
Disclaimer : I am not responsible for anything that happens to you or your device after flashing this mod. Though, nothing generally happens when you do it right. Make backup, always.
I have ported it xperia M
Here are some files for testing
You need CM-12.1 installed to test this.
Links removed
RECOVERY.IMG - To be flashed on fota partition
XL_CM-kexec-xx-xx-xxxx.zip - To be flashed in recovery
multirom-xxxxxxxx-v31x-UNOFFICIAL-taoshan.zip - To be flashed in recovery
Next boot should come up with multirom menu
If it does, post screens, if doesn't , post last_kmsg.
Due to lack of my knowledge, I have dismissed this project.

I used sources and device tree from CM's repo
Doesn't matter, because I had removed assert from updater-script and no ROM flashing is required in here.
So all files must be good and compatible.
Hey, great job in compiling this. I want to try this out but what are the risks? Can I get hardbricked?
The recovery included in the recovery.img is Cyanogen Recovery.
So cannot able to flash those zips.
I heard MultiROM uses modded TWRP.

Yes that what i.meaned ^^ you flashed this im in FOTAKernel dont you? Then my recovery will be overrided and if his recovery fails to load the kernelinbuild (cm) will be loaded....

Ohk I did not know about invalid recovery in fota partition would result in loading recovery from boot partition.
And its really a nice idea of you compiling modded TWRP, as soon as you are done, feel free to share as I am ready with other zips

i did have a look at this recovery.img ... its definitly a TWRP build... but its damn wrong.... wrong qcom.fstab and recovery.fstab ... NO twrp.fstab ... healthhd seems to have wrong size (ok im not 100% with that but experience says it must be bigger) ... the Size of theme images is wrong.... AND the ramdisk size is totally above the size the kernel will load... thats why it leads to a "broken" recovery-load .... that will lead to a emergency load of kernel-inbuild recovery....
@ OP didnt you got make errors? after seeing this im sure you have build with -i -k
---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:22 AM ----------
ok without any kind of warranty that this will work... i have manipulated this recovery.img (NOT BUILD FROM SOURCE! MANUALLY REPAIR! ) ... maybe this works maybe not....
like you know my device is gone atm.... so maybe if my device is back i will have a deeper look into this...

By making blind builds, you do "waste" the source code.

And you seriously expect a working build?

No, definitely not. He just used my sources (XperiaMultiROM) to compile it, which is a piece of cake. Honestly, if porting MultiROM was just a matter of compiling, monkeys could do it too.
OP: Blind builds are not encouraged on XDA. Especially when they're untested and broken.
And no, this shouldn't hardbrick your phone. You'll need to reflash your kernel and the system partition in the worst case.

Please apply for closure of the thread

To everyone:
I am sorry for doing it all wrong and blindly. I just had ported to a similar device and had it working perfectly.
Never knew CM sources wouldn't work for XL. Basically I trusted on CM people for device tree and kernel, which I shouldn't have definitely.
If anyone feels to, can apply for closing down the thread. I have other devices, I'll try getting it to work on them.
Thank you

Hoes does one circumvent startup-password not being recognized after restoring a TWRP backup of my data partition?

Thanks.
