Twrp recovery for the n7000? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, fellow XDA-ians. A friend of my owns an n7000 and on some other phone he used to have, he used Teamwin's recovery project and he wanted me to ask here if there's a twrp recovery for his note. He does not have an account here and visits as a guest from time to time. I searched the two development forums with the tag "twrp" but nothing came up.

If you searched and couldn't find, more than likely it doesn't exist.
There is no TWRP recovery for the Note yet.

Darn it. Hate to disappoint the guy.

I do believe TWRP can be built from source, providing you know what you're doing.
I did consider building it for the One S some time back but it baffled me, shortly after that it was released officially
CWM does the job so stick with it........ for now at least.
If it aint broke.... Dont fix it.

CWM doesn't do the job as well as TWRP does. I currently run an unofficial build on my Galaxy S3, and it wipes stuff faster, installs stuff faster and allows for multiple zip installation, at a max of 10 zips per install.

Aokp by sixstring 40.1 hv twrp...search in original android development section....

Agreed ! But CWM still does the job
Out of all the recoveries available, My favourite was 4ext which was available for the HTC Sensation, Id love to see that working with the Note.
There's a few IRC Channels for TWRP and the development of TWRP, Why not get some info together and maybe some interested members and see what happens
Thats how development begins, If everyone had the attitude ' Its too difficult, I'll leave it to someone else' then things wouldnt be where they are today :good:
Im suprised to not have seen this brought up before really, The Note has sold mass amounts surely we're not the only people who like it ?

I used to love 4ext touch when I had my Nexus One, then I moved to the Gnex and started using CWM touch as soon as I could. Then I switched between cwm touch and twrp a fair amount of times and even so on my SGS3 but now I simply like twrp more, seeing as I run it on my Prime as well. It feels more, uhm, "controlled".
For some crazy reason, I've started calling it "twerp recovery"

Oh yeah, I forgot sixstring did use TWRP before with AOKP. Is he still developing anymore though? I thought I heard he stopped, but wasn't sure.

I can't remember for sure, but backups made with an older recovery version won't restore on this version right? Is it still orange? The 4.x incredible 2 recovery is deep blue/purple, but I think it might be unique to that particular version. Pretty important difference I know.. But what might the benefits to the new version be?
Tried to wait and couldn't..
Flashed fine and all seems OK.
Honestly I don't see any difference. It's still orange.

Only new feature I see is under mount/storage. There is a format /datadata and format /emmc

I will wait for rom manager, better wait than sorry.
Not trying to be a **** but I don't think this should really be called CWM as Koush didn't make it. Unless he authorized someone else to mod it for him but the dev gives no indication that that was the case. I might be unaware that birdman took over CWM development in that case I apologize. It kind of misleads people into thinking this is from Koush and that they can expect it to show up in ROM Manager soon which it won't. Might have been better to name it Modded CWM 4.0.0.5.

to my understanding koush made cwm open source and this was built from his newest source (4.0.0.5) so technically it is still cwm
So only known advantages to upgrading is that you can wipe /datadata and /emmc?
What sort of significance do wiping these folders do?

Thats cool and like I said I wasn't trying to disrespect birdman just the name he choose is confusing. I saw the thread title and said cool Koush is putting out a new CWM and kept checking ROM manager for it. Finally came back here and followed the link and saw it wasn't Koush's work and was dissapointed. I only download from a few trusted dev's and not into trying alpha's unless absolutely necessary. Like when my Eris lost is trackball function last summer and a guy I met in the forums made the group a version of amon's recovery that didn't need it.
if im running an old version of recovery (2.5) and i update to try out some new roms, i wont be able to restore my nandroid from 2.5?

Find devs for 2nd boot cm10 romw

i had a motorola defy with locked bootloader. There were no hope for updates and for custom roms. Till dev (quarx) did it. Now defy has jelly bean (cm10). Lets search for devs and make a donation app, so they can buy our phone add develop one great rom.
Great idea, but do we have enough people? No one will buy the phone if we can donate only ~100€
well, not to develop ROM, but better to sacrifice their/his phone to try unlocking bootloader..

Yes it will...well at least for a custom kernel i think. Still, drivers have to come from Nvidia. And everyone knows about their reputation when it comes providing open source codes and such.

incorrect, i made the Sense custom for Defy way before even CM9 was invented, but correct 2nd-init was working already then and no none really spend much investigating how to use it early on, but that was probably 1yr+ ago.

i did mine in feb.2011 , Quarx did his first post of cm7 in april 2011, i do not know if that helps your memory. (i did check all his post on the topic) . I strongely believe i was utilizing 2ndinit on defy on a customrom, and i was introducing it here on o4x for now.
but to stay on topic, no one seems to have faith in a CM10 for O4X here, i tried to port, but that never went well, and compiling only helps so far as the ril driver is documented by LG here.
but the rest should be straight forward, since we share chipset with OneX which got quite far now.
btw,
i did post my CM10 rom as nandroid backup using 2nd init , so your request is already existing on o4x, just not with a phone functionality.

I have downloaded the file and it is .zip file .. It has two files that are kernel and platform files >> Good news
Now, I can see all the files for our O4X and everything is clear . We can make modification for it and install it by CWM
I hope you guys all the best with development . The kernel file has the drivers for our O4X

Please, look at the information of tegra 3 and open your eyes as much as you can at the official website

Maybe you need it sooner or later ..
Best regards,
IMHO
As long as the kernel is not signed u cant really use it. i dont remember anyone using 2nd init on milestone for a custom kernel.
they actually just adapted CM for the old kernels wich is a lot of work i think... And that could be done for our 4xHD as well the problem is
actually that u need the devs for it.
And i think no dev really wants 2 work on a standart phone unless he has it and really wants to keep it and mod on it.

Can I take cm10.1's 07/07 kernel and flash it via CWM?

I heard that cm10.1's 07/07 kernel has no whitescreens. I am using a newer version of cm10.1 . Can I flash 07/07 kernel on its own via CWM? If yes, how can I make it flashable? Thanks in advance.

I mean, there should be a stable ROM with everything working. Maybe not the latest release but it would be stable. I know all ROMs are stable for your phone since you don't have WS or mount problem, but there's no rom for my phone that won't malfunction.

Sorry, but you have clearly misunderstood the whole point of XDA. Most of the developers here (including me) do this as a hobby. I make this ROM for myself and then I share with anyone else. I am not going to do something, in this case fix bugs I have never experienced nor can reproduce, just because something is not working on your device. Douches are people who constantly spam and whine about things. Use GB and be happy.

You know, you should really take a chill pill....TheWisp is trying to do something for free here..i don't think you really understand the "free" part...myself, i couldn't spare the time to learn to develop for Android, much less fix bugs and try to create a stable rom without up-to-date blobs ( which by the way is really harder than simply porting cm to a certain device which already has jb or a variation of it)...if you really want something 100% stable go for stock (tough good luck with random crashes)..if you want something 97% stable go for cm10 or cm10.1 (i find 30/06/2013 cm10.1 to be one of the smoothest and stable of all the cm10.1 builds), and if you want something 95% stable go for cm11(the one i have right now)...you should really stop complaining, and instead of being part of the problem, start learning to develop and be a part of the solution (if developing is for you). Peace!

(Unofficial) (Nightly) (Not Supported) CyanogenMod 13

I recently decided to do some personal builds of CM for the OnePlus 3. I have seen that the other threads are not updating their builds since they are the ones working on them. I am simply sharing the current builds from the CyanongenMod Repos. I did not do any of the development work and I will kill this thread the moment we get official nightly builds. I am not responsible for anything that may happen and I do not care what does and does not work. You are deciding to flash this ROM. Bugs can be reported to the CM devs but include a logcat or GTFO.

Possible to link the source?
Not that I know where it is, but I'm to lazy to search all the time.
Only thing I noticed is the battery drain compared to stock, not a big one, maybe it need to settle a little.
1 hour SOT 21% on cm
1 hour SOT 14-16% on stock.
Lets see how it settle.
Edit:
Compared to others Roms who looks like they are on a older source, it's running like it should, compared to stock min. the same smoothness, maybe even better.
And I can't test lte because I only have a h+

The boot loader is already unlocked so this phone will probably get root. CM is dead though so no chance of that. However it may get some custom roms.

He means LineageOS 14.1 which is not dead. Heck my old ass Samsung Galaxy Note Pro is running LineageOS 14.1 so never say never when it comes to LineageOS. My Note Pro was about to be recycled until LineageOS 14.1. It feels like a new tablet now. I would love it on my G6!!!

You guys / gals are angels from heaven to work on this. Thank you
I still think the best bang for the buck phone out for 2017 is the LG G6, selling for like $499 now, and soon with Root and official CM14.1 ( Lineage ROM ), it's the phone to beat for the price. The G6 running official Cyanogen ROM for $499, I'm all over that. Will be a super cool phone. Plus it's IP68 waterproof, and has wireless charging, and is also very one handed friendly for a 5.7" device. This phone with AOSP ROM = nerds wetdream

Apparently the intl model's bootloader does not have all the fastboot commands stripped out like our tmo model :|
This makes theirs much easier to twrp/root.
So we just need a recovery and rom if we can unlock our bootloaders already ?

I just think this is a little weird I haven't seen nothing around here unless that's the same rom posted in the development thread, But by a different dev?

Yes, but there is no way to install twrp quite yet. To the best of my knowledge they devs basically have it, but they have to refine it an d make it user friendly so we aren't all bricking our phones

I've rooted every one of my phones since the OG Droid. Oddly enough, I'm really not missing root much for this phone- was originally hanging on the edge of my seat for it. As I've been living with it through the last few weeks, though, I don't think about it much. If it does get root, I'll probably do it- but this is the first time I think it won't matter that much. I'm really enjoying this phone (my first LG).
Cheers!

Don't quote me but the official unlock is just like it was on g5. But boorloader unlock still works for g5 and g6 just not an "official" unlock
Really hoping that they do this soon. The phone was fantastic for the first couple of weeks then the anticipated happened, as has been my experience with all carrier ROMs. It starts to get sluggish, battery life gets crap (I was getting 6+hours SOT, now lucky to get 4), and phone is generally becoming slower.
Like many, I don't need crazy fancy ROMs, the G6 is surprisingly nice in stock format. Just want a clean, light, optimized ROM/kernel without all the TMobile crap they think people like.
