I just got a sandisk OTG and for some reason TWRP cannot see it. Is this new ? I have yet to try this method but if anyone can give me an idea or information how to do it.
Thanks
Same here, I use to be able to save my backups directly to my thumb drive on the Note 4, however OTG is not recognized on the Note 5 in TWRP. So instead I have to save the back up to my internal storage then transfer when I boot back up.
Bump for a fix.
I got my new Note 5 rooted easily, and wanted to sue Flashify to isntalled TWRP. So I downloaded this;
TWRP v2.8.7.1 N920T/P: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...62&postcount=3
But it saved as a .tar file, not an .img file ? And Flashify says it must be an .img file. Can I just rename the end to " .img " ? Right now the file is named " TWRP-2.8.7.1-Alpha_N920T.tar.md5 "
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I was following this guide: http://theunlockr.com/2010/04/26/how-to-root-the-htc-g1dream/
I got to step 7 and update, I get: "dreaming.nbh - fail". I followed the steps PERFECTLY. Now when I try to boot up, I get a screen with 4 or 5 colors on it and that's it....
Did I mention I have DMD64? I did NOT extract the zip file.
I don't know what I could've possibly done wrong....any help here would be GREATLY appreciated.
You ever figure this out?
You said you did NOT extract the zip file... So inside the zip file is the Dreaimg.nbh? Is this correct?? If this is correct, move that file from the zip folder to the root of your memory card and try again.
Hey All, have google and googled for the past week but nothing specific to this issue I'm having.
I want to restore my stock firmware so I can get OTA updates! I didn't make any sort of backup when I began playing with different roms. I have htc_039 unbranded aus htc one. Bootloader has been unlocked with S-on and TWRP installed.
Downloaded Deevans/bugsys nandroid backup that matched my phone details (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41368105&postcount=375&nocache=1&z=2030115523399023) but there isn't any sort of instructions on installing these.
When i have tried to flash the rom I get "installation aborted" and when playing with fastboot it has given me messages that it cannot find certain .txt files (something like android.txt and a few other ones.
Could someone please tell me what im doing wrong or list the instructions to install this? I don't know if I have to lock the phone again, restore the recovery file first, no idea!!! Or is there anyway to turn the Android Revolution 12 image to get OTA (i dont think so)?
If you need any further phone info I will post.
Can anyone help with this?
When I try to flash the file in TWRP it starts and stops at "Updating partition Details".
What have i not setup right? Have been using these resources:

Hi,
I'm new to the htc one so not sure here but from what I understand and anyone please correct me if wrong - but if it's Deevans nandroid 1.29.980.2 (Australia unbranded) it's a CWM backup and I don't think they work in TWRP.
So think you would have to flash CWM, then flash "restore" nandroid from CWM or find a TWRP nandroid.
Also think you need s-off before you do ota as no way to gain s-off with revone on updated hboot 1.54 yet.
Hope this helps.

Thank for the reply
I have tried to install this with CWM which gave me those first missing ".txt" files. I will give it another go with CMW and post the results.
I will also S-OFF before doing the above.
Phone is now S-off and put CWM as the loader. Tried the zip file again and says:
Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
I have also downloaded the file twice to confirm its not corrupted and it opens through winrar with no problems.
Any other suggestions?

I would try restore it like a backup, so unzip and put files in your CWM backup folder.
Not sure how CWM backup folder looks but in TWRP it's like /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/... or /data/media/0/TWRP/BACKUPS/...
So I would try unzipping and copy files (boot, data, recovery, system) to /sdcard/CWM/BACKUPS/folder/put files in here - then boot to recovery and try "restore" option and browse to backup folder. You could probably copy the files to any folder on the sdcard and restore from recovery not sure.

Thanks for your suggestion and that was going to be my next question. The file I mentioned in the first post is x.xxx.xxx.zip (x as the numbers) and inside that zip is a folder with the same name x.xxx.xxx and inside that folder are all the files.
I tried putting the folder only in CMW but wont detect it, tried it with the .zip file and fails. Have now just put all the files into the folder and tried again with same failure.
There is a very long error in the recovery.txt file it made, don't know if its any use but the first line that pops out is:
Starting TWRP 2.6.0.1 on Fri Aug 2 06:23:49 2013
BOARD_HAS_NO_REAL_SDCARD
I put the file into this link if you know of anything, makes little sense to me. http://pastebin.com/Tvp2Qp2X

I have now tried both TWRP and CWM and fails, also have installed ROM manager and another one I cant recall from play store. Also booted into recovery and went to the 'restore' option from the menu but cant find any directories..
I dont know if this has anything to do with it but noticed in the contents of the file:
ARCHIVE: cache.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: data.ext4.tar
ARCHIVE: system.ext4.tar
boot.img
cache.ext4.tar.a
data.ext4.tar.a
nandroid.md5
recovery.img
recovery.log
system.ext4.tar.a
system..ext4.tar.b
Not to get ahead of myself but HTC ONE is ext2or 3 by default, its not something simple as having to change it to ext4? Its just something that stood out.
Just done google search on CWM backup location and seems to be /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup - so you could try copy the zip and/or files there and try restore from CWM recovery and see if that works.

Interesting that there was no 'backup' folder inside that folder. Have created it and putting the files and zip in there now.
Was also googl'n and found this article:
http://miuiandroid.com/community/th...d-restore-error-while-restoring-sd-ext.15611/
Someone mentioned to now open the zip file when it downloads. I'll try your suggestions and this and let you know what happens tomorrow.
Thanks again
Morning,
Have downloaded the .zip file again twice and put it onto the SD and clockwork Mod backup folder and it has aborted again.
Any ideas on what to try from here?
Hi,
Tried creating an 'image.zip' with CWM 6. There is a successful confirmation message that the file was written to /sdcard/clockworkmod/image.zip. But I can't find the file and there is no change in the available space after supposedly having written the file. I think the file was not saved.
I'm using trickdroid 7.5.0 / android 4.2.2.
Any ideas what's wrong?
Thanks

I have the same issue. I am on 4.4.4 and I installed CWM only to create this zip file. I only see it within CWM but can't find it in Explorer in the same folder. I generally use TWRP.

CWM stores backups in /data/media/clockworkmod (old 4.1.2 filesystem), now sdcard goes to /data/media/0/....
you'll need to use a root-enabled file explorer to get to /data/media/

AWESOME! I found it. Thank You
I'm unable to delete a folder named '3Minit Download' from the previous user. The folder contains a ton of images that I cannot delete and create a problem when I try to upload my gallery because the photos from the folder update as well, over 300.
My Sig contains the rom I'm on. When I received the phone, I wiped and replaced the image for rooting and flashing purposes. I figured doing so would remove whatever was on the phone but it did not.
I have tried changing the permissions to the folder but I receive the message attached...
Any would would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Use the file manager in twrp to delete the folder "3Minit Download"
and or delete the all files and subfolders folders in "3Minit Download"
Reboot the phone.
Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestion. However, when I try to delete the folder in TWRP (2.8.7.4), it says to 'swipe right to delete' but there is no slider so it won't delete.
Any other ideas? Willing to try just about anything.

There is something wrong with your twrp then if the slider don't show up.
You need to flash the latest "compatible" twrp for the Note 4 N910T phone.
There is no official release of TWRP 2.8.7.4 at this time.
You need to get flash twrp 2.8.7.0 for N910T tmobile device.
Here is a download link for twrp 2.8.7.0 odin version and the
twrp 2.8.7.0 zip file recovery flash version in case you want
to flash it, you may need to odin flash it if you cannot flash
it using your twrp 2.8.7.4 .
Here is a download link for both the odin flash and recovery flash versions of twrp 2.8.7.0:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ytmvdwmgnmmqtrq/twrp2870-TAR+zip file version twrp2870.rar?dl=0
Inside this zip file both the TAR and ZIP versions of twrp are included.
Good luck,
Have a great day!
Success!!
For some odd reason, I had to go down to TWRP 2.8.5.0 (tmo) for the slider to return.
Thank you!!

You don't have to downgrade TWRP...
Solution... Most likely you have a Theme inside your TWRP folder, and that theme is compatible with 2.8.5.0... And not for latest TWRP. (so latest TWRP displays incorrectly)
Delete the Theme folder from your internal storage (TWRP -> theme), then upgrade to latest TWRP, and everything should be ok.
I am looking for a rom zip file for a T-mobile HTC desire 626s. All I keep finding are the ruu's. I need a zip file so I can install OS via TWRP. Anyone know where I an find and download one, really need as soon as possible.
Flashing without RUU
First, download the RUU and run the .exe up until it prompts you to begin the install to the phone. Don't do that.
Go to Windows Explorer and in the address bar put "%temp%" and find "rom.zip"
Rename it "0PM9IMG.zip" and put it in the root directory of your external SD and from here you can do whatever you want. I used the bootloader to install it rather than TWRP.
Thanks
