Notes:
These are built with kernels from the latest Beelink GT-King (Amlogic S922X w/ w400 reference board) and Beelink GT1mini (Amlogic S905X2 w/ u212 reference board) firmware, but will probably work on any device based on the same reference boards.
The signed .ZIP files are suitable for installation with stock OEM recovery, but they use platform test keys and so might not work on builds requiring release keys.
If your device uses Android Verified Boot, there are additional measures you must take to successfully boot with a custom recovery partition.
Some OEM firmware have a stock recovery auto-restoration "feature" that will immediately replace TWRP after you reboot to system. The easiest workaround is simply to reboot to recovery immediately after the flash by holding the reset button. You can also try renaming /system/recovery-from-boot.p.
This is unofficial and unsupported, so the usual caveats apply. Since we don't flash the bootloader, you should be able recover from any problems...but nothing is guaranteed.
Not working:
MTP & ADB

Hi!
I put your recovery using the UPDATE app method and I am unable to boot to it using "adb reboot recovery". Got a black screen

Sounds like your box is using AVB 2.0.

Can someone please assist with how to root the U211 devices? TWRP works great, SuperSu 2.82 installs successfully via TWRP but when the system boots, it's still not rooted.
Any help is greatly appreciated here

Do you perhaps have the DDR4 (S/N: B922X) version of the GT-King? This one was build for the LPDDR4 (S/N:922X) hardware revision.

Just hold the reset switch in for about 20 seconds while connecting power.
Fastboot mode is more of a challenge on the GT-King, since it can't get enough power from the USB cable by itself. You've got to hold the reset switch while simultaneously connecting both power and the USB cable to the back port.

Ok thank you, I tryed recovery mode.. still stuck in bootloop, I ordered a usb cable from gearbest so I will try fastboot wen mail knocks

Thank You TWRP work well

Magisk installation
And what to do to install Magisk correctly. The root is already on the Android 9 device. Unfortunately, the Magisk installation by TWRP has failed so far. Have any ideas? (applies to device and Amlogic S905X2 HK1 Play)

Can this be used on the Ugoos AM6 pro 4 gb / 32 gb s922x?
I guess so?

Duvel999 said:

Click to expand...

My understanding is that Ugoos doesn't use the platform keys, and so the .zip file won't work with the OEM stock recovery. You should be able to flash the .img file, though, from TWRP or dd with root. (Yes, I know that's a bit of a chicken-or-egg scenario, so you might need to use Amlogic's USB Burning Tool or update.exe.) Also, look to see if they've implemented AVB 2.0, which can also be a PITA to work around.

Hi
I've got my eyes on a Beelink GT king Pro. Does this work with a s922x-h board @Magendanz ?

I'd be surprised if it didn't. It's based on the same reference board as the GT King.

Ok great !
Thanks for the quick answer ^^

have someone a way to put TWRP on Amlogic S905X3?

Hi.
Can this be used on the S905X3? (Wechip v9 4GB/32GB)

Hello. When I try "Apply update from EXT", I got:
Code:
Found: Amlogic/p281:8.10/OPM1.171019.011/root:userdebug/test-keys
E3003: This update package is intended only for Android Pie builds (SDK 28)
Does it mean I cannot install it in Oreo Android?

Yes that is what it means, I think his REF to TWRP-9.0 pretty much explains its for android 9 aka Pie only.
But there are many other recoverys that do work for Oreo...

​A custom recovery is used for installing custom software on your device. This custom software can include smaller modifications like rooting your device or even replacing the firmware of the device with a completely custom “ROM”
Some features:
Built with the AOSP 3.10 kernel
The latest twrp version
fiops i/o scheduler: don't know if this makes an actual improvement, but I just wanted to add it
Fixed the clock
Really fast and cooler
Notes, current issues:
When entering the recovery, the screen will be black, then flicker but after that it will work flawlessly. This is a mdss bug, but I don't know how to fix this
There is no support for encryption, as I don't use it, and I think neither do you
Though I added 'support' for f2fs, it didn't work the time I tried to format my cache, if you want to test it, use the SkyMelon kernel
Any other issues:
You tell me
How to install:
method 1:
flash it using adb fastboot:
install adb and Xperia m4 Aqua drivers
download the recovery.img and put it in adb folder
1- turn off the phone
2- press volume up and connect the usb cable
3- open cmd and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
method 2:
Use Flashify from the Play Store to flash it.
method 3:
flash it using older twrp (that support flashing img files)

I think I know why your variants don't want to boot, it's because the Image.gz-dtb thingy
I'll try to use the uncompressed one

Good Work
Hey,
I'm having some problems with this. I've tried to boot into the bootloader using adb and the button sequence and that doesn't look to be working.
I've tried to flash it using the latest flashify but the file explorer just crashes when trying to select a file.
I've also tried to flash it using TWRP 2.8 but that after rebooting back into recovery it remains on 2.8
I've been trying to do this on a bootloader unlocked and rooted e2303 running stock 5.0, any idea as to what other methods I can try?
Edit: Fixed, took some doing!
Hi, do you know if some twrp 3.1.1 exists for M4 aqua locked bootloader? E2303
I have this device root-ed + twrp2.8 installed but I want to put twrp 3.1.x
I would need some kind of pack as in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4...-twrp-touch-recovery-bl-locked-t3257430/page1
This kind of file package with install.bat

Follow the project management issue over at the Halium GitHub page:
https://github.com/Halium/projectmanagement/issues/98
Instructions (tested on Ubuntu 18.04):
First make sure to wipe /system & /data from within TWRP. The partitions must be ext4.
Make sure to upgrade your device to the latest stock Android 8.0 before continuing: https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/flash-tool/
Download and install the UBports installer: https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases
OEM unlock your device: https://developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/get-started/unlock-bootloader/
Boot your device into fastboot mode by shutting it down and keeping the Volume Up button pressed while plugging in a USB cable between your phone and PC. The LED should be on and blue.
Flash the OEM binaries from: https://developer.sony.com/file/download/software-binaries-for-aosp-nougat-android-7-1-kernel-4-4-loire/ using:
Code:
fastboot flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img
Run the UBports installer and follow the on-screen instructions
Reserved for future use
wtf bro i never expected to see ubuntu touch on any device again great news and good work! keep it up!
Too bad my device broke......gotta fix fast lol
I've updated download links and the instructions to enable call functionality. Testers welcome!
Ready for tests! Just need to install Ubuntu with current manual
Have I need to flash stock rom with android 7 or just flash binaries on stock android 8?
New tests to be done, we've recently gotten video decoding to work and I enabled basic camera support.
OP has been updated with the link to the newest images.
Feel free to post issues here if you are not feeling well with GitHub.
Regarding stock ROM or not:
Any system image should work, you can even wipe system as it's not used.
As long as the ODM partition is flashed everything should be good.
I'm trying this for the 2nd time and both times I can't get any audio in calls. I ran the commands in the first post. Any tips on what else to try? I'd really like to try this, test some more and help out, but it's the only phone I've got right now.

Did you run the commands through ssh or via the Terminal app? Mind doing a "select all" and copy-paste the output to some paste service?
EDIT: Also, did you reboot after issuing the commands?
Thanks for the work on this.
I need a little bit more explanation on how to install this. I gave it a try, but I end up in getting a white boot screen with the sony logo. Installing SailfishOS with the flash.sh script works perfectly.
Questions:
- When do you need to use twrp? When running adb?
- Running the halium install script only works when booted into twrp. Is this correct?
- Do you need to manually boot into fastboot mode (volume up, blue led)?
- The sailfish installation uses oem for android 6, here 7 is used. Can this make the difference?
Thanks for any support.

Sorry for the late reply. I got it to work now. My problem was using an outdated system.img and boot.img. (oops, sorry, my bad!) I had downloaded the newer versions, but had them in the wrong directory. Once I deleted the old and installed the correct versions, I was able to get audio in calls and had the basic camera functionality.

boot into fastboot and flash the oem:
fastboot flash oem SW_binaries_for_Xperia_AOSP_N_MR1_5.7_r1_v08_loire.img
then boot into twrp recovery and wipe /system and /data
while in twrp, run the halium-install.sh script (because the computer needs to connect to phone in adb mode, which twrp provides)
following from there, as you see in the first post, you will run "adb reboot bootloader" (but I think I did have to do it manually) which should put you back into fastboot mode where you'll "fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img"
then you should be able to reboot into ubuntu. The first boot takes a little longer.
Are there any screenshots available?

No but you can find some videos on YouTube, just search for "Ubuntu Touch 2019".
The videos might feature different phones but it's the same on the Xperia X.

Someone else is working on that already, but this port is only for the Xperia X (F5121).
In other news:
Installation instructions have been updated, the Xperia X port is now available from the UBports community channel!
Can you make port for XA 2 (H3113)
As I get the question very often: To support the F5122 variant of the Xperia X (or other devices in general) for Ubuntu Touch I need donations to buy the device.
Use the "Donate To Me" button on XDA or head over to https://fredl.me/donate/ for info on how to do so.
In other news: The Xperia X F5121 has gained support for the official UBports installer. You can now flash the device using a fancy GUI.
I hit 2 problems. For some reason neither Emma nor flashtool wants to flash stock rom correctly. Tried to flash ubuntu through stock 8.0 custom rom, phone reboots and black screen. Also there is was an error with something that the file couldn't be sent to the phone
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ok, so I did install the stock rom through EMMA fine. I did enable the usb debugging, installed twrp, wiped system & data, made sure they are EXT4. Rebooted to fastboot, installed SW binaries. Opened UBports Installer & proceeded with instructions. I got this error
Code:
Error: systemimage: Error: Error: {"error":{"killed":false,"code":1,"signal":null,"cmd":"C:\\Users\\domin\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\1Uo4H80AYPnCivmpnC8M9LLWxLb\\resources\\app.asar.unpacked\\platform-tools\\win\\adb -P 5037 shell mount -a"},"stdout":"","stderr":"mount: mounting /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata on /data failed: Invalid argument"}
Any solutions, did I miss something? I gonna retry without the twrp step, as I am pretty sure the partition format will be EXT4

About Team win recovery project
TWRP is an open source, community project. TWRP development is done by roughly 4 people at this point. We also have a large support community with many people who are willing to answer questions and help people with their devices either through our IRC channel or on forums like xda-developers.
Team Win was originally formed to work on porting WiMAX to CM7 for the HTC EVO 4G. After our work on the EVO 4G we wanted to work on a project that would work on more devices than just the EVO 4G and we settled on working on a recovery. Today TWRP is the leading custom recovery for Android phones.

No! You need to unlock your bootloader before using this.
Hi,
First thanks for your great work.
But I have a problem.
After doing a full backup and doing some testing, I restored my whole backup. The process succeeded. But I am stuck in a bootloop,my phone boots to the point, where I can see the LOS 17.1 Logo, But does not continue. Have waited for 30 minutes a few times now.
I tried the built in bootloop fix, But it does not fix my problem.
Thanks in advance
Good day every one
Well, yesterday Google released android 11 for pixel handsets.
Soon you people can expect custom roms from my hand mean while i released android 11 twrp builds and with the help of my builds we will go forward accordingly on time for future releases towards custom roms and ports.
Soon I will release road map towards beta program make sure to keep an eye on my xda profile , threads and project updates & don't forget to donate if you love my work and also make sure to hit thanks button.
TWRP Changelog

Thank you
Thanks, finally a permanent TWRP for the device. (sticking to 10, as a game I play can't handle 11 correctly)
After fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-PL2_sprout.img
Sending 'boot.img' (42412 KB) OKAY [ 1.206s]
Booting OKAY [ 5.049s]
Finished. Total time: 6.466s
Im stuck on android one screen any idea why ?
Hi! I'd like to install TWRP on my Nokia6.1 2018 however whenever I reboot to download mode for whatever reason the device isn't found anymore through ADB and because of that I can't do fastboot devices as it yields nothing and when I skipped it, it just waited for a device forever. What's weird is that it is connected, even windows says that.

I'd like to install TWRP on my Nokia6.1 2018 however whenever I reboot to download mode for whatever reason the device isn't found anymore through ADB and because of that I can't do fastboot devices as it yields nothing and when I skipped it, it just waited for a device forever. What's weird is that it is connected, even windows says that.

While phone is in fastboot mode, open device manager. Locate the unknown device and update its driver. Choose fastboot driver from existing drivers. It will install the driver and will work

Follow this,
fastboot flash recovery (drag recovery here or insert path)
press enter, it will fail saying something about a-b slots
Then finallay do,
fastboot boot (drag recovery here or insert path)
press enter
should boot your TWRP now

Thanks, I had same problem and this is working. Anyway the problem is, I have to do this every time I want to TWRP. Is there any way how to fix this and be able to avoid `flash recovery` part?
edit: removed
Looks like can't decrypt with Android 11. I'm 100 % sure that password is correct. With Android 10 it worked fine.
Are there any plans for updates? Thanks.
Hello people,
I accidently flashed the twrp-3.4.0-0-PL2_sprout.img file and now I am stuck in the androidone loading screen anytime I try to boot to that file in order to flash the twrp-installer-3.4.0-0-PL2_sprout.zip file.
Also when I try to boot the recocery I am stuck in the loading screen of TWRP.
any suggestion to fix that ?

The device has 2 boot slots. Try switching with fastboot --set-active: https://www.techmesto.com/possible-fix-nokia-smartphone-stuck-on-download-mode-after-ota-update/
I cannot file the download link for the twrp installer.zip file. I have the image file but cannot find the zip file on the github download site.

Route to ROOT an unkonw AndroidTV Devices Technicolor DWI259S/UIW4020ETI (Sapphire)

Hi guys, I'm here to learn something about Android Security System.
I have this Sapphire TV BOX
model: DWI259S / UIW4020ETI / UIW4020ETI2 (Sapphire)
SoC: Broadcom BCM7271
The goal of this post is to understand how I can gain root access on this device
I know how to turn it in recovery mode .
if you are interested you can read this Reddit post from ams_sharif
"You can boot to recovery by switching the unit off ( the black button in the back), then while holding the power button (the one on the side, next to the pair button) turn the set top box on until the recovery shows up."
This is what I see.

I tried to flash an update.zip in order to see if I can execute command through any script, but the verification of the signature fails.
I tried to click on "Apply update from USB" (that is adb sideload) , but connecting the tv box on the pc nothing happen, no device found neither with "adb devices"
I tried also to click on "Reboot to bootloader" but "fastboot devices" command return nod devices connected.
My idea was to read the recovery image from fastboot extract it and try to compile my own TWRP
Do you have any suggestions to guide me in the right way?
@element14
When you enter
Code:
adb devices
and don't see an entry listed under the “List of devices” section, then your device isn't connected to PC.
Same is case when you enter
Code:
fastboot devices
Recovery option "Apply update from USB" isn't equal to "adb sideload". This option assumes the Update.Zip you want to flash is located on USB-device connected with your TV box.
With regards to rooting your TV box you can try to flash Chainfire's SuperSu Pro.
BTW: TWRP isn't a recovery image you compile in order to flash, it's merely a touch-enabled replacement for device's Stock Recovery menu as shown by you

Are you sure that I can flash an unsigned zip like superSu , with a stock recovery and locked bootloader ?

The TWRP is an open source project , all the source code is avaiable. But to have it works , you need the original kernel .
I tought , If I can unlock the bootloader I can read the image of the recvoery.img and from it extarct the kernel
Thanks for your answer.
@ element14
did you manage to make the device usebale?
Hello, i am also interested to reset\flash this device but I couldn't find any useful guide, did you manage to root it or flash it, I want to use it as android STB.
As long as you can establish an USB-connection ( read: ADB connection ) then you can root any device's Android OS, otherwise NOT.
Any updates on this topic? It would be great to know if someone was able to root it.
If this is the etisalat version of this box I have gotten APKs to work on it.

There is only one port. Is there any other way? And how can i play videos from usb

Going to apps list:
- insert usb
- click browse
- go up to internal storage, press ok, click Apps
part 1
- go to apps list, keep usb inserted
- scroll to Files, click it, click open
- if it opens skip to part 2
- else it will crash and show the first time boot
- go to apps list again while keeping usb inserted
- open files again
part 2
- connect a mouse to other USB port, navigate into the USB and into where you placed your APKs
- double click the apk to install it
- on first time install, it will show an error about unknown sources
- click settings on the prompt
- enable all sources shown
- continue installing the app

there's another on the bottom, or use a USB hub.
you can't play videos from USB without installing third party apps.

Flashed successfully but there is a problem. I don't see SYSTEM under wipe and can't install any image properly. Is there any fix?
copy-paste the adb output with mouse + enter key, put in [code]tags[/code] here.
while in TWRP
Code:
adb shell
# cat /etc/fstab
# ls -l $(find /dev/block -name by-name)/*

I flashed twrp first, then the vbmeta via fastboot (not with twrp) and then reboot to recovery by holding power, vol+ and vol-, then releasing power key. That's how I booted successfully into that (TWRP).
And I don't require twrp now, I just reset my tab with smart and rescue assistant. I wanted to flash every treble Android 13 GSI.
My tab is on latest Android 10

But please send your device's About section page's screenshot
so that i can make sure it will work on my device too or not
Sure if you want to.
Here you go
If it still doesn't help, i would suggest resetting device with LENOVO SMART AND RESCUE ASSISTANT but keep in mind it will delete all your data, so proceed after doing backup.

You need Smart and Rescue Assistant on PC and it can update your tab even with unlocked bootloader. After successful rescue, bootloader will get locked again. Hope it helps
