TWRP 2.8.7.0 custom recovery
thanx to user @Unjustified Dev we have TWRP custom recovery for our phone.
download HERE
So anyone who download the TWRP should send him a dollar for beer or at least thank him!
Of course you do everything on your own!
To test before installation (linux users need sudo before fastboot):
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1bbb boot twrp-2.8.7.0-idol3.img
To install (linux users need sudo before fastboot):
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1bbb flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0-idol3.img
!BEFORE YOU START, PLEASE READ THIS!
And don´t forget to thank Famewolf for the tutorial, because this could save your phone when something go bad!
Thanks, tried it. It worked.
I also just installed SU directly, bypassing the previous root thread.
1. Download the .zip package from here: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip
2. Put it on the root of my SD card.
3. In TWRP click install and find the .zip.
Wonderful. Just a question: is this recovery for Idol 3 4.7 (6039) or 5.5 (6045) ?

It's for 6045. For 4.7 TWRP, see this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61976520&postcount=18
Thanks!
is it functional for backing up our system in TWRP?
@DallasCZ could you please provide the original link to TWRP. That was a bit unfair to upload it elsewhere as I tend to track the number of downloads.

Yes although to my knowledge noone has actually done a restore yet. He's fixing some minor bugs and will be releasing a new version at some point.

Convert TWRP Backup into flashable rom zip
I found these instructions that explain how to take a TWRP backup and turn it into a flashable zip file. This would allow someone to create a "factory" rom pre-rooted to be flashed.
For TWRP Backup
Transfer the TWRP backup from Phone to PC.
You’ll see a file named system.ext4.win which is the System partition backup of your device. Rename it to system.ext4.tar (Changing its extension from .win to .tar)
Extract the system.ext4.tar using an archive software like Winrar or 7zip.
If your TWRP backup is not in compression mode, you will directly get the system folder, else you will get a file named system.ext4, which should be renamed again to system.ext4.tar and extract it to get the system folder.
Take the boot.emmc.win file and rename it to boot.img.
Now collect a META-INF folder from any custom ROM which is made for your device. Make sure you get the correct Meta-Inf folder, else the Zip won’t work and might worsen the condition of your device.
Select the META-INF, System folders and the boot.img and right click your mouse and select add to Archive.
In the Archive settings, choose the extension of the compressed file as Zip (Make sure of this part)
Now you can use this Zip file to flash it on your Custom recovery.
we dont have the meta-inf folder...there is one in the update i got, but i dont know if this id the right one.
and we dont have custom rom to get meta-inf from.
also the main thing is, that i cannot unpack the system win file when renamed to .tar i dunno why (i got latest 7-zip app).

What they primarily want is the "update-binary" which is device specific. I don't remember if the update had one....I did take apart an update-supersu.zip and it uses a script as it's update binary...thought about trying to convert that. Theoretically you could take a meta-inf for another device's rom...and use it's meta-inf making sure to replace the update-binary. It also has an installer script that tells it to mount system and data....extract files from the zip and where to put them. I learned a bit when I was trying to make an update.zip to fix my build.prop.
It untar'd fine for me on my linux pc:

i allready build some roms for my older device, so i know what it is about.
For the proper rom zip you have to make the updater script with all the simlinks and metadata ...in the latest update there were no simlinks in the updater script...
without them you can brick your phone.
for example simlinks from 4.4.2 Os from zte V5
Code:
symlink("/data/misc/audio/mbhc.bin", "/system/etc/firmware/wcd9306/wcd9306_mbhc.bin");
symlink("/data/misc/audio/wcd9320_anc.bin", "/system/etc/firmware/wcd9306/wcd9306_anc.bin");
symlink("/persist/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima/WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini");
symlink("/persist/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin", "/system/etc/firmware/wlan/prima/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_nv.bin");
symlink("/system/lib/modules/pronto/pronto_wlan.ko", "/system/lib/modules/wlan.ko");
symlink("Roboto-Bold.ttf", "/system/fonts/DroidSans-Bold.ttf");
symlink("Roboto-Regular.ttf", "/system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf");
symlink("libGLESv2.so", "/system/lib/libGLESv3.so");
symlink("mksh", "/system/bin/sh");
this you cannot copy from another device....
Never mind. I installed the second build.
How do I boot into the custom recovery? Is it power up + power button on the Idol 3?

Reboot or power on till you see the alcatel screen pop up....right away hold down up arrow and it should go into recovery.
Thank you so much...been waiting for this....
so now let ROM's start pouring in )))))))
Hmm odd. I had to reflash it. For some reason it didn't take the first time I flashed the second build TWRP to my Idol 3.
What partitions should I backup using TWRP? I'd assume: Boot, System, and Data? Should I include System Image too?

The default of boot, system and data should be fine for personal use however if you have not yet rooted please read here first! http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/help/want-to-able-to-install-ota-updates-t3163745
So Awesome! best looking twrp Ive seen yet xD. Also, works well too. I havent tested backing up data, but I did a successful restore of the system and boot So far so good!
Hello, am new here so if I did something wrong please correct me OK
-presentation:
we all love running latest android versions and install big a** games like asphalt 8 and have all the Google apps that we love
But in Janice it's some kind of impossible to do all of that ( come on its only 4 years old!!)
As they say no impossible under the sun now you can easily increase system or data or what ever partition your want just by flashing a Lil file and without losing a single file
-Warning:
Me and XDA are not responsible for any soft hard leaks or what ever you are doing this by your self!!!
Make a full backup(system data boot) before starting..
DO NOT USE THIS FILE WITH ROMS THAT USE CACHE (CM10.2)
-Requirements:
1. Janice or Janice-p(not tested)
2. TWRP Recovery (Any Version)
3. The attached file
Instruction:
1. Download the repartition file
-rename the file with your favorite partition sizes like "lanchon-repit-20160317-system=1-data=max-cache=0.03125 wipe-preload=min wipe-fota=min wipe ext4-sdcard=2-janice.zip" which means 1gb system 2gb sdcard and the rest will go to data partition so you will be able to install more apps
2. Boot into TWRP and make a backup
3. Flash the repartition file of your desire
4. Take a nap or watch big bang theory just waste some time
5. When the script finish restore your backup and reboot
6. Enjoy your games or what ever
-Credit:
1. @Lanchon
2. @madkita
If you want a file with your own sizes just write or in comments and i'll do my best to offer it to you
hi,
thanks for the guide! a couple of comments:
1) i suggest people get REPIT from its main site:
https://github.com/Lanchon/REPIT
the files posted here are already very old, i've updated REPIT several times.
also, i only provide support for the latest version. older versions are unsupported.
2) if you download the files from here, they will not work.
(XDA messes with the filenames changing = for -)
3) you don't need to backup anything unless you want to revert the flashing of the kernel.
4) you don't need to flash any particular kernel to run REPIT, you just need a recent TWRP build.
5) TWRP with gparted is not needed anymore: REPIT now bundles gparted and other tools.
6) the configurations proposed here are incorrect. you should use:
a) if you want 3GB data and rest as internal sdcard:
-system=1.0-data=3.0-cache=0.03125+wipe-preload=min+wipe-fota=min+wipe+ext4-sdcard=max.zip
b) if you have an external sdcard, and want 6GB data and a very small internal sdcard:
-system=1.0-data=max-cache=0.03125+wipe-preload=min+wipe-fota=min+wipe+ext4-sdcard=0.0625+wipe.zip
then your internal sdcard will be useless. so you need to swap internal and external sdcards as detailed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ment/mod-internal-memory-repartition-t2863629
these configurations will keep contents of system and data. if you don't care about their contents, configure wiping (add '+wipe') for those partitions and REPIT will repartition much faster then.
7) read REPIT manual before using!

Yeah thank you updated OP
first of all thank you both
just to be sure, i have a couple of questions:
- how much space does a full backup take?
- what is the limit to the repartition? right now i'd like to add one gigabyte to system for apps, which numbers do i need to write in the zip name?
- what does the "wipe preload" and "wipe fota" strings do?

In TWRP it will be around 500-600mb with compression
lanchon-repit-20160317-system=1-data=max-cache=0.03125 wipe-preload=min wipe-fota=min wipe ext4-sdcard=2-janice.zip
Just rename the file to this and your will have 1gb system 2gb SD card and the rest well go to data if you want to edit a partition size for example the number 1 after system means the system will be 1gb and the number 2 in front of SD card means the SD card will be 2gb and max in front of data means the rest well go to data partition
Preload and fota are partition used in only stock ROMs and stock based ROMs so if you are running a custom ROM this will give you more space in the partition your set to max
thanks to both devs, i have one question is it compatible with cm13 ?
will i be able to re-size F2fs or i need a EXT4 to use this tool .
i just did everything but i'm not sure it worked
i used this name for the flashable zip
lanchon-repit-20160317-system=1-data=max-cache=0.03125 wipe-preload=min wipe-fota=min wipe ext4-sdcard=2-janice
but in system info it still says that data is 3.91GB, and i have 1.84GB for SDcard
maybe i should have gone further and give 3GB to SDcard?

Yup it works if your wanna check system download a small app called disk info
If you want 3gb on sdcard change the 2 number in front of it this will give you 2gb on data

Make a backup first and when resizing all partitions will be formated to ext4 then restore your backup it will automatically format them to f2fs
ayt man thanks , trying it right away !!
edit : getting error 1 in twrp 3.0.0 on cm13 rom I THOUGHT IT WAS compatible with repit , as said on the GITHUB
also i tried flashing zip from github page of lanchon , that zip also did not worked it said something like couldn`t find meta-inf lanchon REPIT.
??? where did i went wrong i just flashed the zip from twrp it did nt worked i moved the file to /tmp then tried there also same error .

Can someone here confirm that the kernel cm12.1 (OP) can be installed in the latest CM11 ROM by epirex? And if repit could work after 12.1 Kernel installed in CM11 ROM? Thanks in advance.

First make a backup with your cm11's kernel then flash cm12.1 kernel then flash the script and the kernel doesn't t care about your current rom so it should work every where

About Partitons:
data-slot = internal storage (can be used)(recommended)
Extsd-slot = external sd card (can be used)
Primary= System Partition ( No use )
Secondary = System Partition (Only can be used if much of sytem space left)
Multi-slots = cache partition ( No use )
What's Working:
Everything
What are not Working:

I honestly have no clue. I have only gathered all the patches and files for Kenzo and made them into one guide.
Thanks for the guide: -
Digital Well-being apk (Download latest version) <<<< Links to the overlay zip and not the apk.
Sourced the beta of apkmirror: - https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...wellbeing-0-2-207862754-android-apk-download/
I used Mind the Gapps found on Telegram, when flashing.
Is it possible to dirty flash open gapps?

You need to extract the image file from that compressed format, use windows are download an app that will extract it.
Suggestion RAR from play: - com.rarlab.rar or alternative app that will do the same.

Hey @Sid127, this is really nicely written tutorial, thank you What bothers me, why we need to mount partitions once again in step 6? Partitions were mounted in step 3 and there wasn't any reboot in meanwhile.
3. Mount all partitions, and wipe all partitions.
4. Flash the Vendor Image zip file.
5. Clear Dalvik/Cache.
6. Mount all partitions, and wipe system.
7. Flash GSI to System partition *only*.

Second question, maybe easier... If I have existing TWRP backup for non treble ROM, is it OK to restore such backup using Treble recovery after wiping everything? Or it's recommended to flash previous recovery first?

1. You just need to make sure that all partitions are mounted.
2. You can restore the backup through Treble TWRP.
Happy flashing!

I think it is possible to dirty flash Open Gapps, but it might give bugs, always go for a clean flash
Everything works for me, only thing was that at the first setup it was stuck on "checking for updates". So I tried the method of tapping all sides of the screen (from top-left clockwise to bottom-left) and it skipped the setup. The flashlight is a little wonky, but that's the only thing that was getting in my way. The audio was a little too quiet, so I installed some app on the playstore to gain it. Thanks for such a comprehensive guide! Android Pie is amazing, but development for it on a 3 year old device is even more so!

I had to forage through 4 complex guides, scourge through XDA and Telegram for all the patches, and hence could make such a simple guide. Apparently, devs on the Telegram channel are working on the Bluetooth and VoLTE fix I'll update once that happens!

I did see that, but when I flashed it, it messed upy system and I had to reinstall the GSI. I don't know how to modify it for Treble, could you do it? I'm happy to test. I believe that fix is for Flashavle ZIPs, not for Treble GSIs.
Possible Gcam and stock working patch!
Posted this in AOSP Pie Rom thread, may also work for the GSI?

I found Gcam Pie Fix for another device in this thread.

Gcam that I'm using: - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939833577
^^^ From this thread, maybe newer versions available.
I was able to setup face unlock after flashing the above fix, you may also need to enable Smart Lock (Google) as a trusted agent.
It is buggy and the face option may not always trigger, plus you need to hold the phone far from you and swipe when the lock symbol appears (no fast unlock options xposed).
Another benefit of flashing another Camera (V 2.0.002) Started working as well. (Don't know if that is the default AOSP camera or something I restored from backup? Could be Snap Camera from LOS).

Not that I'm aware of, but this just places/replaces some Lib and Lib64 in system partition.
If your worried about it, back up your system partition, flash the this patch and wipe caches.
If you experience problems, just restore your system partition.
It was reported working by someone else here.
Hey guys !, I have testing the system.img of the CrDroid Rom from Mi A3 and it works great, everything works on our CC9e (I have been using it for some days and works very well)
You need an unlocked bootloader , a TWRP working on your device, you must be on xiaomi.eu miui 12 (in order to get android 10 vendor) and some files listed below:
1- Crdroid Rom from Mi A3
2- Payload dumper
3- Magisk 20.x
If you wanna test it follow the next steps:
A) Extract the payload dumper.zip you will get a payload imput folder, payload output folder and payload.exe file
B) Open the Crdroid rom. zip with 7zip or similar and copy the payload.bin file to payload_imput folder
C) Open the payload_dumper.exe file and wait until the window close automatically, then copy the system.img file from the payload_output folder to a otg device, internal memory or sd card
D) Enter to twrp format data, then go to wipe option, slide to wipe data and cache partition, then go to install option and flash the system.img file in the system partition (the file that you copy to device in the step C)
E) Once the system.img is installed, don't reboot , just go back to install option in twrp and install magisk 20 zip, once it is installed just reboot and enjoy crdroid rom

The Vendor from the MIUI 12.5 by xiaomi.eu, which is based on Andorid 10.
Seems that the way I installed the Crdroid can't load the driver correctly. I tried to install the Evolution x which is based on Android 13, the audio module still can't run correctly.
ps. I tried to flash the vendor.img from evolution x. The CC 9e can't load the system successfully. It stuck on the loading screen of evolution x, which appears after the Mi Logo.
I will try to install Evolution which is based on Andorid 10 soon. Hope everything will work well.
is there any error or bugs in this rom?

And I will try to install the vendor from MIUI 13(Android 11) and retry the Evolution which was based on the Android 13.
I will stay on the A13 if the speaker works well.
So,do you need the link of evolution x right now?
