I'm running cloudyflex 2.4 and each time I make a backup with twrp it fails. I'm on a Verizon 24a model with twrp 2.7 any suggestions???

That was a bug with 2.7 and stock ROMs. Seems like the larger the ROM, the more likely it was to happen. It was fixed with 2.7.1. But it had a screen timeout bug. I'd highly suggest dr87's custom 2.7.1, its built with his kernel, which fixed the screen timeout bug. Plus he added thermal control and knock on. Much better than stock TWRP

I searched XDA and the web and can't find that. Could you point me in the right direction??

Could be the auto file name it's creating is too long. Try manually naming your backup.

You need to figured out which display panel you have, LGD or JDI.

Safestrap on i9295

Would it be possible to get safestrap working on the international version and if so would we then be able to flash roms without needing Odin to get Wi-Fi working? I've tried the other version and it installs and I get the new splash screen but if I press recovery the screen just goes black.

CWM doesn't do the same thing of creating those "slots" that Safestrap does... unless something new has happened with CWM of late since I haven't used it for quite some time personally.

Safestrap seems to offer better functionality than CWM and we have to use Odin to get Wi-Fi working.

TWRP 2.6.3.2 Zip

I've created a flashable zip of twrp 2.6.3.2 that can be flashed in your custom recovery. This can be used to easily flash between recoveries if you desire.
All credit goes to Dees_Troy, I just packaged the image file.
http://d-h.st/3XG
Edit, corrected thanks to @crispi7
I flashed zip but recovery version remains the same.

i'm better with it now. the screen took some getting used to. going to sell my S4. i'm done with lock-tight bootloaders. really getting used to the device. it carries its weight. i'm on faux's kernel and the cataclysm rom. cant say anything but good stuff about both and how well the device is performing on them. thats my 2 cents. in case you hadnt heard, when you're in twrp and you wipe (full, partial, etc), reboot recovery and then flash. users have problems getting zips to install without the reboot between wiping and flashing. its a recovery bug atm. cheers

The prooblem I found is this command (obviously, it's the only one xD):
package_extract_file("openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.2-hammerhead.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7");
The "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7" is for pad, the recovery is in "/dev/block/mmcblk0p20". Also you can use "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery" that is easier to understand.
So the command fixed should be:
package_extract_file("openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.2-hammerhead.img", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery");
I will test it and tell if that solves the problem
TWRP 2.6.3.2 zip fixed!
OK, everything working now.
Fixed zip uploaded to: http://d-h.st/Qen
I'm sure people will be happy to flash it easier than before just from your phone without any needed app
I tested it and it's working but feedback is also good :good:
so if i flash this on mako"nexus 4", would i brick my phone?

Thanks man. That zip worked great for me. Also, when I clicked on the link on devhost, a mobogenie apk started automatically downloading. It was not from your zip, just some spam crap. I deleted it with root explorer. Just a heads up if it happens to anybody else.

Seems to be an overall issue with TWRP 2.6.3.1, and while I don't know if the issue is resolved in 2.6.3.2, I can tell you that it doesnt have the problem in 2.6.3.0, as I've been kicking myself for a while now fighting with .1 to work. I took WugFresh's toolkit, downloaded the 2.6.3.0 .img, changed in my settings of the toolkit to use custom recovery (the .0 version), flashed it (which also re-roots your device, needed or not), and then everything was fixed... That's the route that I took, as even on .1, the rebooting between wipe and flash didnt even work for me... MIght save some people some headaches 'til we can verify .2 fixes the issue.

moderators please delete! thank u!

Ideally yeah. Only issue I've seen with people using the 24a radio on a non 4.4 ota base was rotation.
Give it a shot and let us know. I hear 24a gets better signal then 11a and 12b.
Worse case scenario if things get really wonky, you can just flash the 12b radio.

Thanks. I'm anxious to try the 24a radio in a location that struggles with signal. I have until Thursday to find a ROM that can use it. Will test drive this one asap.
Wait - I just really processed what you wrote. If I understand correctly, I could ostensibly flash and run the 24a radio on a stock 12B ROM????
Nope, just tested that and its a No Go; Bootloop City.

[Q] Will ghost roms work on XT1060?

Will ghost roms work on the XT1060? I know that technically the XT1060 is classified as ghost_verizon and while I know that hardware and software wise there is no difference I'm wondering if there's a difference in radio. The reason I ask is because I haven't been able to get the CM12 nightlies to flash but I'm not sure if it's just because it doesn't fall under ghost or if it's an issue with TWRP or something else.

I use the Ghost nightlies and they work well. Most people have to flash CM11 before flashing CM12. If you haven't had CM11 on your phone (you don't have to set it up) that may be the problem.

It's been discussed in other threads, but can't recall the exact reason.
However, I did try from stock 4.4.4 to cm12, and that failed. Thus, I installed cm11 first, let it boot to home screen, then rebooted to recovery and installed cm12. Haven't looked back since (2+ months).
