Hey Everyone,
I'm looking to try LOS 19.1 for the first time on my new OP8T.
I always see TWRP as a suggestion for the best custom recovery, but on the download page "twrp-installer-3.7.0_11-0-kebab.zip" is the file name. I'm confused, as the 11-0 means it's for Android 11, but I saw that TWRP 3.7.0 is supposed to support Android 12.
Can I use TWRP for installing LOS 19.1 on Android 12 or should I use the LOS-recovery?
And if I do, can I still use Magisk (on their page they say to use TWRP)?
Sorry for this newbie question. Thanks in advance!!
All the best
The official TWRP doesn't support A12.
Use the unofficial one from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...in-recovery-project-8t-9r-2022-07-27.4473983/

3.7.0 is recovery release version and 11-0 means it's for Android 11.

The download link in that unofficial one forum OP presents a lemonade (Oneplus 9) TWRP...
Am I missing something? @BillGoss : do you have the download link for an OOS12 supported Oneplus 8T TWRP (that preferably can make (and restore) backups since Orangefox one can't make backups (it errors))?

It works on both the 8T and the 9 9R. If you want to be sure try to boot into it before flashing.

If you look at the title of that thread you'll notice that it says "TeamWin Recovery Project (8T / 9R)".
So, yes, it's for both the 8T and 9R (lemonades) but not the 9 (lemonade).

OK thanks ! lemonade versus lemonades ... I did not know about this subtle name difference
The recovery image boots indeed. I would like to make backups...
Unfortunately the backup (of LOS 19.1) fails with similar message as Orangefox with:

That happens if you have files under /data/fonts/files/, but you would need to check the recovery.log to confirm that is what's causing the problem.

Thanks all! One should perhaps forbid files under /data/fonts/files/ ... After deleting those, I could finish both (unofficial) Orangefox and (unofficial) TWRP backup just fine. Agreed, this does not 100% prove ERROR root cause but sure does consistently correlate. So now maybe one should harden custom recovery images to avoid the trap, especially since the trap seems to be a known one by some people (like @BillGoss).

Correct, but only in incremental updates.
But I don't think the current TWRP can process OOS incremental updates - the last time I tried I got an error.

Lol! I think I'm going senile!
Given that I tend to test before making statements like the one you quoted, I'd say that that is correct for the 1-4 version of TWRP.
But it may not be true for 1-5 as I've found some issues with it (eg, fastbootd doesn't work) and I've not fully tested flashing otas with 1-5.

I went hunting and I found the conversation where I flagged the problem with flashing OTAs on the latest TWRP (on the TWRP development site):
I wanted to test using TWRP to install an OTA zip on OOS 12. The first time I tried I got an error because it was expecting the current version to match those of C.33 but they didn't - even though I was on C.33. So I used `resetprop` to set the proper values and then it sort of worked, but still gave errors.
I was using the latest version (1.5 or 220827) of TWRP.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And now I'm wondering how correct my statement about flashing OTAs working on the previous version. I'll have to do some more digging to see if I can find solid proof of OTA working on TWRP 12 v1.4.
Update: I found where I tested flashing OTAs on TWRP 12. That was back on 220805. That was before 1.4 came out (220818). But I didn't expect that this function would get broken, so I never actually tested on 1.4.

So as i understood correctly flashing OTAs in TWRP is broken on v1.4 and works on prior versions?

This is an unofficial port of TWRP Recovery for the Oppo F1F on Project Spectrum Bootloader. Much Thanks and credit goes to the TWRP team, Lineage team, and brinleyaus for making this possible. This will allow flashing of modification zips (eg. supersu, magisk, xposed, etc) over the top of Project Spectrum or flashing spectrum based ROMS.
Instructions:
Already running Project Spectrum
- If you haven't already unlocked you bootloader you will need to go into SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE and tap BUILD NUMBER 7 times to unlock DEVELOPER OPTIONS, Then go into SETTINGS > DEVELOPER OPTIONS and enable them, also enable ADB DEBUGGING and OEM UNLOCK. Now reboot into fastboot (adb reboot bootloader) and run fastboot oem unlock.
- Install this image file through fastboot (If you are unsure of this step follow one of the many tutorials about installing TWRP through fastboot)
On ColourOs with TWRP
- Do a full wipe first or the install will fail. (In TWRP hit WIPE then swipe to factory reset.) Do a backup first as you will lose data.
- Flash this zip file through twrp and then hit "wipe dalvic and cache", then hit HOME then REBOOT then RECOVERY. (rebooting to the new recovery will ensure the recovery sticks) then Flash any Spectrum based rom or restore any Spectrum based backup. NOTE the ColorOs system and boot.img will still be there but wont boot so you MUST flash or restore a Spectrum based rom before you reboot to system.

Which file are you talking about, I just checked the links and the flashable zip was actually pointing to the full ROM which defiantly has the 3.1.1-0 version. (I just fixed the link to point at the bootloader, firmware and twrp zip.) Are you rebooting to recovery after flashing to make it stick?

No, Read the OP of this thread. There is a zip (and instructions) to return to ColorOs Bootloader,firmware and TWRP. From there you can flash any TWRP flashable ColourOs based Rom (ColorOs or LineageOS) or restore backups from them.
Which root method will be used for this?
Stock Android 7.0 (Nougat) for the Moto X Pure 2015 XT1575 US NPH25.200-22
TWRP Recovery Image (Includes /boot and /system only)
**Factory reset after restore is advised.**

**Not tested coming straight from stock 6.0 MPH24.49-18-16.**
I did an incremental OTA upgrade from stock 6.0 MPH24.49-18-8.
Use at your own risk. If you have TWRP installed your warranty is void anyway. I'm not responsible for bricking your device.

No Nougat modem is available until the flashable (non OTA) full stock 7.0 rom is made available from Motorola. This is not likely to happen. No issues have been mentioned running this update on a 6.0 modem. Not sure what the advantages are honestly. I never had problems with bt, wifi, or calls with the 6.0 modem firmware.
Create a backup beforehand and you can always go back to it.

Will this work with XT1572? Just confirming.
This is not a traditional TWRP zip file. It is a backup file. You need to unzip it and put it in the backup directory. You then restore backup, choose the nph25-200-22. . . directory, and away you go!

Well it worked, sort of. It booted to stock but it wasn't stable and the play store kept crashing, I tried all the usual stuff for that, clear services & play store data, uninstall updates, finally tried a factory reset and now I'm stuck in TWRP bootloop, even if I reinstall this image.
So very much YMMV.

My boot.img provided in repository thread is for BLN-L21C432B365 build, as listed in OP and in my post there; what's your build number? An unmatching build could be the cause of this. For example, recovery for BLN-L21C432B365, differs from BLL-L21C130B365 - the B365 at the end is equal, but the build variant is different and so incompatible

I would but I can't and I've never had issues with the official twrp builds I personally think it's just the beta causing some weird encryption bug

Why can't you?
The unofficial is maintained by the same person as official.
Also it's not a bug. It's the change in encryption /decryption. So if you won't use unofficial then you can wait patiently for official to update there source and build.

I can't cause my twrp is showing Internal Storage as 0 and won't mount stuff and I can't wipe
The unofficial twrp comes with a .img file and zip. Use a PC to boot into the .img with fastboot then use that booted image which should allow decryption and flash the zip.

Do you have magisk installed?
Use the twrp installer zip.

Solved. NVM, it just popped out as soon as I asked the stupid question.
Can you please tell me where can I find the unofficial twrp? It's like a freaking unicorn, evading my desperate searches.

Look here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...nt/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322
I had problems on pie so downgraded to Oreo. Now I'd like to update to android 10. Is it safe to go straight from Oreo to android 10? How can I keep root? Will my data be wiped?
Also I tried updating first using twrp but got an error. Can someone explain what happened? I will attach a screenshot
You're posting in the wrong section, and probably using the wrong TWRP. I would use MSM tool in your place, and yes, it will wipe your internal storage, so backup

Would it be safe to make a nandroid backup with the current twrp version I use? Version 3.2.2-0
Also would it work if I tried to flash an older more compatible version of twrp?
First you have to update to OOS 9.0.9 and then to OOS 10. See the following threads:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/how-to-flash-twrp-magisk-android-10-t3988213 (Instructions)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/official-oxygenos-5-1-5-ota-oneplus-6-t3794232 (OOS Full zip downloads)
If you do everything correctly, you will not lose any settings or files on internal storage. But please make backups before continuing.
Also, you posted this in the wrong forum section. Maybe a mod can move it.

So despite the error I got using twrp to flash an update, would it be safe to make a nandroid backup using the same version? Would I be able to restore it if I had to?

I assume you got the error because you have an old TWRP version and you tried to flash OOS 10 directly. I don't know for sure if the nandroid will work with a new TWRP version, but I'm guessing it will work (otherwise you can just boot old TWRP and restore nandroid).
It's very difficult to actually brick the OnePlus 6, so even if you would do something wrong and end up in a boot loop, there's probably an easy way to fix it.
If I remember correctly, this is basically what I did:
Uninstall all Magisk modules (but not Magisk itself). Uninstall substratum themes etc, if you use any.
Boot into TWRP. Flash OOS 9.0.9.
Flash new TWRP version (for example twrp-3.3.1-14)
Follow section B from the link I sent earlier.

Thanks for the help. Just one more thing. I read somewhere it was possible to update twrp through twrp. When I got to install image part, there were some options one of them was supposed to be "recovery image" as far as I remember. But in my version in place of that there was something called vendor image. What does that mean? Can I update twrp by flashing a zip file through the current twrp?

Yes, if you already have TWRP installed, you can install the new zip from your current TWRP. But remember if you had Magisk installed before, to reboot TWRP and flash Magisk again.
I followed what you said. It all worked out. I now have latest twrp, android 10 and root. thank you very much.
