TWRP for Amlogic devices.

[CerenKiba]

Hi all,

I have MX3 4K android box and I am trying to update the firmware. I tried to download the .img file and changed to recovery.img, but when I follow the steps in first entry, I dont get the screen that shared, instead I got Android reboot page. Can also please anyone share a link with latest firmware or page that explain how?

Thanks in advance.

I have the same issue so,
I'm not sure it may be related to an earlier ? i posted regarding the proper TWRP for our device and especialy if your using adopted storage because if you have the micro sd adopted then it treats that as internal storage this , "I think" causes a conflict when restoring from internal, or micro sd again "i think" because it is both trying to read and write to internal at the same time.

Then again I could be way off base here which is why I have also asked for clarification on this issue. Unfortunately I have gotten know response as to why

My original Question regarding this was infact the post above yours #1483 but as said I have not gotten an answer from someone who knows or anyone for that matter still hoping though

what men "adopted storage" bro ? mean the external storage sd card ? if yes, than my USB drive also same "adopted storage" but i can do backup successfully there.

the question you asked in #1488 i advice you to use all below TWRP one by one and try to make backup and restore.
coz you dont need to stall any TWRP to use. just copy any TWRP and rename with recovery.img in memory card ( should be less than 32 GB and fat32 format). try to insert in your android box and power on while press recovery button. the TWRP will flash in your screen. try to make backup and restore from them, if fall try again with another TWRP to use in same way.

Hi all,
I have Vorke z1 android box and now I installed abdul TWRP 3.0.2.0 for backup to my current rom. when I am trying to make backup of my current rom from TWRP the error message appearing "/sbin/postrecoveryboot.sh process ended with error:17". ( see below image). however, my backup is completed successfully.
my concern now, is it safe to restore this backup even i got the above error message while backup ? why am getting this error while backup ?
Please any one can help me here ?
also any one can give me the Super SU zip file to flash from TWRP so I can get root excess.
am using vorke z1 android version 6.01 M.
Please Please any one help me here.
thanks in advance.
Please see below image for error message while doing backup.

that error message is Normal as far as I can tell, I mean I get the same error and can restore

Okay, I generated a few builds of TWRP 3.2.1-0 just to see if I could get it working, and I'm happy to report success:

• twrp.q201_N-3.2.1-0.img
• twrp.q20x-3.2.1-0.img
• twrp.p21x-3.2.1-0.img

There aren't many changes, but I've updated the GitHub repo here: https://github.com/Magendanz/android_device_amlogic

Also, in order to build version 3.2.1-0, you've got to use the following local_manifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<remote name="omnirom"
review="gerrit.omnirom.org"
fetch="https://github.com/omnirom" />

<remove-project name="android_bootable_recovery" />
<project path="bootable/recovery" name="android_bootable_recovery" remote="omnirom" revision="android-8.0" groups="pdk-cw-fs"/>
</manifest>

Remember, the "_N" suffix is for Nougat projects, which have a separate DTB partition. The ones ending in "x" are VideoStrong variations on the Amlogic q201 and p212 reference boards.

anybody , @Magendanz

A couple of Questiions for you, if you don't mind.

1.) Witch Version of TWRP should I be using for the AML-912 Mecool BB2-Pro 16GB/3GB DDr4.


I'm currently running the SCV1 Rom and using the TWRP Built into it and have various issues the built in TWRP sais its for a S905 device but it does backup and restore if I'm not using adopted storage.
If however I am using adopted storage, it will backup but if I have any apps or data migrated to it, it will restore everything until it gets to the data partition and then it will fail with an error about unable to fork data or something similar to that and it doesn't seem to matter where I'm restoring the backup from it fails the same way wether it be from internal or external source.


2.) While using adopted storage and going to the filemanager within The TWRP noted above I cant seem to be able to view/find/access any of the contents that should be located on the internal SD. Infact under /sdcard in TWRP-filemanager the only content shown is the TWRP folder and contents there of if ive made any backups to internal.
Also i have explored all other directories such as /data/media and several others with the same results. Furtemore, directories such as /mnt and /storage arent listed at all.

So I guesse to sum it up my actual question is, is this normal behavior for the TWRP-filemanager when using adopted storage, or is it a result of using the wrong TWRP version for my device, wich would bring me back to question #1.



Thank You in advance for any advice or assistance you may offer.

Guest Hi. Just looking for guidance. I have a M8S box which i had bricked. Managed to find a working software and got it going. I tried to flash 5.1 Lollipop onto it through TWRP. IT IS NOT BRICKED but TWRP has gone into a loop. It's preventing the launcher from working. I am thinking of doing a factory reset. Is there any other way out of it? This box has turned out to be a clone box not original.

subsequent to above I am getting following messages;
E:Find_File Error opening '/sys/class/leds/LCD -backlight"
E: Unable to find partition size for "/bootloader '

I assume backlight is for smartphones. More concern with bootloader. Every thing worked perfectly when I flashed the OS and software and now the launcher is not working .

Any assistance would be appreciated .

If you dump the kernel command line on the box by typing cat /proc/cmdline, you’ll notice the following argument:

androidboot.slot_suffix=_a

This is confusing install scripts like OpenGApps into detecting an A/B partition layout, which they're not using. That kernel command line parameter should be removed in the bootloader, but there's nothing I can do in TWRP to fix it.

For now, my workaround is to just comment out the lines in the OpenGApps install script that check for this.
