Hi all.
I found this look through the Kindle thread.

Yeah..I bit the bullet and DL it and followed directions.
I couldn't boot into recovery.
It hangs at the birds.
Normal boot runs the underlying ROM fine though.
I'm on a 1.2BL. Was running a series of FB from 8.0 to 10.1 without NVFlashing.
I had only factory reset and wipe and booted into Beasty/Clem Ultimate as the latest ROM. (This FROYO is very fast and stable btw...)
Tried the TWRP 2.0 but couldn't get it to work either.
It's on the YT video though. Obviously it works
I wonder maybe they were on the 1.1 BL...
Anybody running 1.1BL confirm this recovery works?

Yup, confirmed by Jazzruby.
only for 1.1 BL.
JR did emailed TeamWin re: possible 1.2BL application
thanks..
how do you like it btw?
Looks like they just changed one of the 2 links...both were pointing to the same 1.1 file yesterday.
Now one points to twrp-harmony-12-2.0.0RC0.zip (1.2) & the other to twrp-harmony-11-2.0.0RC0.zip (1.1).

It's a (newly compiled) stock VS kernel for 1.1 and a clemsyn kernel for 1.2 bootloaders.

It's easy enough to insert a 1.2 kernel into any recovery partition since the both the boot and the recovery partition on the gTab has an identical structure (necessarily so).
1. Download any of pershoot's kernel zips.
2. Replace the kernel/zImage file in the zip file with either a stock 1.2 kernel from an existing recovery image (Or, just use pershoot's 1.2 kernel).
3. Edit META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and
a) get rid of the lines involving /system
b) change the string "boot" to "recovery" in the first run_program() and the write_raw_image() directive.
4. Pack everything up into a zip file and then just flash it.
how do you like it btw?

Works as advertised.
Has anyone else gotten this to work? I flashed it and now I can't boot into recovery - my GTab just hangs at the three birds (with the message about the recovery key being pressed at the top left). I can boot into Flashback just fine, just not recovery. I'm on BL1.2, and I downloaded TWRP 2.0 for BL1.2 and followed the instructions.

This is a TWRP screwup. Both zip files have identical MD5/SHA1 checksums, which means that both have the same recovery image, and hence, the same kernel--ie. a 1.1 kernel.
This was the reason for my post, above.

Ah, I see. Did they give any indication when you contacted them that they were going to fix this? I don't know how to replace the kernel in the recovery.img file myself (I can't seem to find anything that can extract or mount the .img file so I can modify it).

Haven't contacted them--I'm running on a 1.1 bootloader, and, as I said, the problem is easy enough to fix on your own.

You don't need any tools if you have a 1.2 kernel ready; otherwise you need the unpackbootimg program.
See post #9 and just use a pershoot 1.2 kernel.
I contacted them, and they say the zip downloads have been fixed. I checked, and the BL1.2 download has been updated. I can't try it until I get home this evening, but I will and I'll post the results.
Update: After NVflashing and then installing TWRP 2.0 from the new download, it works as advertised. Very nice! One thing I'm disappointed about is that it doesn't appear to recognize CWM backups.
Update #2: The next time I rebooted and tried to go into recovery, my GTab wouldn't boot again; it got stuck at the three birds image, and did NOT give me the message about the recovery key being pressed. Even worse, it refused to boot normally after this - essentially, it appears that TWRP soft-bricked my tablet. I'm NVflashing again and going back to CWM. Very disappointing.

Same here...
I had NVflashed back to 4349.
Comfirmed the stock 4349 worked.
Booted into cwm.
Wiped everything in cwm. Partition 4096 then back to 2048/0
Aplied the twrp update.
Booted into recovery.
TWRP 2 looks great. The menu and screen is responsive.
Tried wiping with it...looks good
I then flashed a rom with it...Beasty/Clem Ultimate to be exact.
Installation reported complete.
Booted up and...got the birds....nothing else...
Tried going back in recovery... recovery is also gone too...
Soft bricked...
Good thing I know how to nvflashed back to stock but for someone new to gtablet, twrp2 may be bad news.
I saw a few post with people having twrp2 installed...has anyone successfully install a rom with twrp?
I have gone total brick (no boot, no recovery) twice and both times TWRP2 was loaded. I can't prove it is the cause, but I never had that problem before even with heavy duty flashing of ROMs etc.
However, all you really need to do is clear the MSC partition.
Use the --getpartitiontable command in nvflash and figure out what your MSC partition is (mine was #7). Then grab a "stock image" and flash its MSC partition (look in the cfg file, usually 7 although my true blue stock was at 6) into partition 7 with --download.
That has fixed it with no data loss every time for me.
Meanwhile, I've gone back to cwm.
Oh, I should say that TWRP2 did work most of the time. But sometimes I would reboot and just hang permanently until MSC gets reflashed.
I liked it in general, although it looked on the internal SD and not external like the version of CWM I have does. Would be nice to either pick or have a 2nd version. But if it keeps corrupting MSC and hanging the box, it isn't worth the trouble. CWM is clunky but fine.

It's better to wipe it clean using the ``--format_partition'' flag to nvflash instead of relying on someone else's partition images.

I strongly recommend installation using the fastboot method, as the apps are reported to work poorly or not at all.
TWRP 2.8.5.0 Won't Boot
I just installed TWRP 2.8.5.0 on my TF700T via the fastboot method (since TWRP Manager fails to install it). However, when I attempt to boot the recovery, the device locks up. This is different behavior than 2.8.4.0, which had a kernel panic and rebooted the device. Any idea how to go about debugging, or should I simply try older recoveries / wait until a newer one comes out?

Naturally, the dd method is the one method I didn't try. So I just did, and it works now. I did have to perform a normal reboot to complete the installation (as opposed to rebooting directly into recovery), but the instructions mentioned that (although they didn't specify that the reboot needed to be a normal one). So all is well now, and I can move on to installing ZOMBi-Pop, my main goal all along.
Makes me wonder why TWRP and fastboot failed, but oh well.

I can believe that for fastboot, but TWRP Manager claimed that the flashing failed. On my OnePlus One, TWRP Manager flashed the recovery just fine. Is the claimed failure just a caveat of flashing on the TF700T, and the new recovery will actually work despite it if you perform a system reboot afterwards? I think I'll try that next when the next version comes out, just to see.

Did you try to flash the twrp.blob in recovery?
That won't work unless you put the blob into a flashable zip.
Oh, re-reading your post you probably mean it failed in TWRP Manager. You take your chances with these apps. Don't use them...

Can anyone turn this into a zip for me?
TLR - I think if I can get a zip of the latest TWRP I can get myself out of a nasty bootloop
I seem to have gone and bricked my Infinity while under the influence...
Installed new rom.
Decided to factory reset.
During format there was an error, and E: data no longer mountable (didn't realize this at the time)
Bootloop
Read some things online and thought maybe I didn't have the right TWRP
Installed a new recovery that was "compatible" with the rom I was installing
It was Philz cwm (freaked out)
Read a post that said I could force the tablet to re-format the :data partition from TWRP by using the terminal command "mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8" BUT can't run a terminal command from cwm

Thanks _that! I actually used a flashable version of your twrp recovery (2.6.3 maybe?) that I found, followed the plan I outlined above, and all is now well.
Where to get TWRP 2.8.6.0 for TF700T
Does anyone know where a TWRP 2.8.6.0 .img for the TF700T can be found? It's not available on the official website (actually, NOTHING for the TF700T is available on the offcial website).
Alternatively, does anyone know where a patched version of 2.8.50 that supports f2fs can be found? Or should I revert to 2.8.4.0?
Eh, maybe I'll just build 2.8.6.0 myself. How hard can it be?
Slightly harder than finding the Kang TWRP 2.8.6 by lj in the dev section I would think....
Well it's here everyone TWRP for 5.1.1. Yes this works for 5.0.2 also. Works on OFE, OF7, OH1, OI1, OJ7 and OL1 5.1.1
TWRP for Marshmallow go Here
All credit goes to @ram9200 so be sure to thank him for the numerous hours of hard work to get this working
Instructions for 5.1.1:
In order for this to work on 5.1.1, first enable OEM unlocking under developer options, then you must head on over to @djvoleur thread and install his rooted kernel first.
Link: Here
then proceed to the next steps.
This is rare but if for some reason you get stuck in recovery or your recovery doesn't boot properly, then you may need to do a factory reset or wipe your internal partition.
How to Install:
Using odin:
Download and install the drivers
Download the tar file
Download Odin 3.10.6 or 3.10.7, extract then install
Leave Auto reboot and F. Reset Time checked
Absolutely do not check repartition
Click AP/PDA
Navigate to the recovery.tar
Hold down power + volume down + home on your phone to enter download mode and connect via USB cable
Click Start
Hold down the power, home, and volume up button when it reboots
Rinse and repeat if TWRP does not install
Using Flashify:
Download Flashify from Google Play
Download the img file
Under the FLASH tab using the Flashify app click Recovery Image.
Find the img file you just downloaded..
Click on the img file then you will be prompted with a Flash Recovery? screen.
Click YUP if you would like to continue with the flash or MAYBE NOT... if you chose the wrong file or have changed your mind.
If you chose to continue flashing you will see a working box which says Flashing...
A box which says Flash Completed will show after flash is complete.
Click Reboot Now.
Done!
Happy Flashing!!
Worked fine for me but:
FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK
Download Links:
Tar File

Next, if you need a custom Rom with support, you might want to check one of these out.

Basically just choose the proper resolution and change the name to ui.zip and create the appropriately named folder?
Also, I'm paranoid about the Chinese text on the first boot up. I know REBOOT option is bottom right. On the next screen where is the SYSTEM REBOOT button?
Thanks a million for posting this and thanks for the help!

Ok, so I got the TWRP flashed with Flashify, held my breath and it worked!
I created a folder called "theme" and placed a theme of my liking in the folder under the name "ui.zip" Will the theme automatically load when I boot into recovery or will I have to so some Chinese text navigating? Can you take me through the clicks if I have to go through the Chinese text?
Also, do you know if this TWRP will bring the deep sleep problems that plagued early rooted users?
Just picked up my edge today! Going to get this installed once I am home. Looking forward to a custom ROM in the near future (hopefully!).

Once you create the folder and place the theme there, all you have to do is boot into recovery and all Chinese is gone. Not sure if the deep sleep issue is present. Hopefully someone will report back. I was able to successfully create a backup and was able to flash some themed apps.

Download CPU Spy from the Playstore, run the app, let your screen sleep for about 5-10 mins, wake your phone and open the app, if you see a percentage under deep sleep then you're good, if you see nothing, then you need the fix
finally got odin to work with me and got twrp up and running! thanks everyone for the help and resources.
NOW its time to make a backup and try to start adding some goodies : ) and to mess around and see if i can get my rotation back lol
Maintained by Dees_Troy, This build of TWRP will (probably) only work with devices using Full Disk Encryption (FDE) and may not work with devices that have been converted to File Based Encryption (FBE). FBE support may be added at a later date.
Full details can be view by their official website https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomipocophonef1.html
Or download the official TWRP app on the playstore
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year people! Happy Flashing!

Yes, works very well, no need to format, and has sd support too.
Anyway, if it's a new phone, like mine, format as many times as you want lol. Which I did while trying out other TWRPs, and I still get them asking me for a password that was non-existent. My first time after so many phones where a TWRP was asking me for a password (which caught me offguard), and all Poco F1 TWRPs except this official one.
I have settled with this TWRP first, lost some time with the rest, my main goal was to root anyway, TWRP upgrade can come later. I do hope nandroid backup and restore is good as I have not tried it yet (just backup which went fine). Will try restore soon. I have Titanium and Migrate working anyway, and Nandroid Manager too.

I don't know how I missed this, this one is also good. I just flashed it just to see and it's ok too.

Ok, I tried to restore the Nandroid backup from official TWRP, and this is exactly what happened to me :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/help/nandroid-backup-fail-t3887678
Restore gets completed, I reboot to system, it goes into fastboot mode. Tried again, same.
So I reinstalled latest MIUI ROM Global beta, which I prefer, and run Magisk again, and restored only Data partition. This worked and it rebooted into system, without me losing my data. I also didn't bother to remove my pin while taking the backup a suggested in another thread, and it's ok, no problem.
So still ok to backup, but can only restore data. Always have a copy of the ROM too in your SD Card or even internal storage to flash when needed, as well as Magisk if you use it.
As for the unofficial TWRP in my link above, restore was worse. It ended up in "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255".

I also didn't bother to remove my pin while taking the backup a suggested in another thread, and it's ok, no problem.
So still ok to backup, but can only restore data. Always have a copy of the ROM too in your SD Card or even internal storage to flash when needed, as well as Magisk if you use it.
As for the unofficial TWRP in my link above, restore was worse. It ended up in "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255".

Guy's Nandroid will working fine, if you save the right partitions!
Use system and vendor image! Instead of system and vendor.
Don't forget data as it is.

Yes, I just tried 2WildFirE's solution, and it works perfectly. And from this article, system image and vendor image are apparently even better than normal system/vendor.

So, no more problem with Nandroid and I can use this official TWRP or the other one. I won't use a custom ROM for my Pocophone as I like MIUI, so it's just fine for me.
As for the wrong date of Nandroid, it's ok, I enter my own file name backup anyway.
GSI IS DONE CHECK THE LINK BELOW, IT'S CURRENTLY IN PROGRESS BELOW IS THE STATUS ME WORKING ON IT
THE GSI PIE TUTORIAL
Grab these two files (Big Thanks to @Zerovoid from 4PDA, @Seryioo, and @mac12m99)
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Image File (Download this and put this on your SDCard and Computer)-
Original Fixed TWRP XDA Post
Fixed SDCard Support TWRP Installer Zip (Download and put this on your SDCard)-
Fixed TWRP .zip Installer
But I got TWRP on 10.0.4.0 with magisk, and Justice Kernel.
THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE I'M DEFINITELY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST DATA, SD CARDS, ETC
Start with the phone being on with USB Debugging enabled correctly and bootloader unlocked
Type: adb reboot bootloader
So flash the 10.0.4.0 ROM through MiFlash using the flash_all.bat, this process has to be done so backup your data before erasing.
After it is done flashing it restarts, go ahead and hold power and volume down right back to the Bootloader
Type: fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy_zero.img
It would boot into TWRP, if you see something about decryption hit cancel this may mean you haven't followed directions so far
Tap install and find your SD Card, find the fixed-twrp-installer-daisy.zip where ever you put it on your SD Card and install it, this process takes a few minutes when finished DO NOT HIT REBOOT SYSTEM!
Hit the home button back to TWRP home screen and tap reboot >>> bootloader
Download this to your computer -
aboot.img
Type: fastboot flash aboot aboot_9.6.4.img
Then type: fastboot reboot
Afterwards your phone shall boot up to Android if it does hold power and volume up and release power and keep hold volume up when the screen turns back on to go-to recovery, if TWRP boots up you have successfully completed the task.
Now flash Magisk zip (optional)
Hopefully this helped kind of my first tutorial, this was my process.

That's weird, I'm running Android Pie on A2L and Wi-Fi looks great.
Have you tried performing a full wipe and flashing the stock ROM?
I had other issues which were fixed by flashing the stock ROM with a full wipe.
Tbh I don't think the patch updates are 100% trustworthy, so I simply update it manually.

You have to extract the file using WinZip, it's just like a .zip file. But after you extract the stock rom there should be another file in that extract that too and select the folder extracted folder with all of the .img in it in MiFlash.
You must have the Pie ROM to do this
Please make sure you have the latest ROM or latest patch from this link https://en.miui.com/getrom-354.html?

No problem I'm here to help!
Thanks for the nice Tutorial, the installation works fine.
Backup to the sd-card is now possible, but the restore doesn' work. It stops with this message:
Cannot restore System -- mounted read only

So it's not mounting right sounds like it can right but can't read
I found the solution here:
https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-15952.html
- Go to the TWRP Home Screen and select Mount
- Untick "Mount system partition read-only"
Restore was starting then, but after 99% this error appeared:
The extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255
The device didn't start anymore and I had to set it up again.
