Some words about my little Script:
I would describe myself as a flashoholic and kinda perfectionist.
I try a lot of different Roms and to get the best results I always want to start from scratch and have a clean base for the new Rom.
So I decided to write a little script that automates the process for me. :lazy:
Based upon: Android 4.3 AOSP (JWR66Y)
There will be different versions:
For all versions: THIS WILL WIPE YOUR USERDATA! Make sure you have a backup!
1. Coming from a 4.2 rom:
- flashing latest 4.3 bootloader
- flashing latest 4.3 radio
- formatting system partition
- formatting userdata partition
- formatting cache partition
- flash stock boot.img
- flash stock recovery.img
- write original factory system partition to the device
- write original factory userdata partition to the device
- write original factory cache partition to the device
- again formatting system partition
- again formatting userdata partition
- again formatting cache partition
Now you have a complete "empty" device ready for every new 4.3 Rom.
Your device WON'T boot up until you flash a Rom in Recovery or via fastboot!
Download
2. Just clean install (already 4.3):
- formatting system partition
- formatting userdata partition
- formatting cache partition
- flash stock boot.img
- flash stock recovery.img
Your device WON'T boot up until you flash a Rom in Recovery or via fastboot!
Download
3. Clean install for paranoids (already 4.3):
- formatting system partition
- formatting userdata partition
- formatting cache partition
- flash stock boot.img
- flash stock recovery.img
- write original factory system partition to the device
- write original factory userdata partition to the device
- write original factory cache partition to the device
- again formatting system partition
- again formatting userdata partition
- again formatting cache partition
Your device WON'T boot up until you flash a Rom in Recovery or via fastboot!
Download
Instructions:
- Download file
- Unpack it (using e.g. 7zip or WinRar)
- open the folder
- put your device into fastboot mode by either chosing it in your reboot menu or by powering off the phone and then
push and hold Vol+, Vol- and the power button until you are in fastboot mode
- connect the device to your PC
- execute the "make_it_happen.bat" in the folder
- hold on tight! Your device will reboot a few times during the process (don't worry)
- enjoy fresh and empty Nexus 4.
Note:
This is ONLY for the Nexus 4! Don't try it with other devices! It won't work.
You can easily replace the included files with e.g. your prefered kernel (boot.img) or your prefered recovery (recovery.img).
Just extract the *.zip and replace the files! (Be careful with the spelling.) This might save you some time if you always want to start from the same fresh base.
Going to release a version that lets you decide which version you want to use or what you want to flash/erase/format. -> Kinda AiO Version of this little script.
If people are interestes in it, I might release a version of this script that lets you revert to either AOSP stock or Google Factory Image stock (both bootable) without wiping partitions after the flash. (Of course CLEAN.)
At the moment these versions are in order you are directly going to flash a custom rom to your device. Just tell me.
Thanks to:
Google for their factory Image.

Im Guessing he means "Your Device will not boot until you flash a stock or custom ROM onto it" But i may be wrong lol.

Yes you are right. I should add that.
Wrote a short statement in the "Notes" section about that.
I recently got a Nexus 4, probably on 4.1.
Anyway, flashing to a 4.3 custom rom and the internal storage is a bit weird - lots of sdcard simlinks with folders named 0, legacy, emulated in the storage directory. I saw a thread that said that this happens after updating from an earlier revision of android and is supposed to be a backup of the old sdcard partition as it was, but it's quite confusing and doesn't seem to work well. I can't seem to get rid of the simlinks within a rooted file browser, not that I am completely sure of how to do that, anyway.
Now, the actual question - will using this get rid of the confusing way my internal storage's sdcard directory is structured, returning it to something simple like "/storage/sdcard/mystuff"?

Yes. Method 1.) should exactly do what you want.
Be sure you update your recovery to the latest version. E.g Clockworkmod or Twrp.
After you have succesfully used method 1.) stay in bootloader.
- Download the *.img file of your prefered recovery.
- open terminal and flash the recovery by using the following command:
- fastboot flash recovery "nameofyourrecovery".img (of coures without the " ")
- fastboot reboot-bootloader
Thats it.
Now you have a custom recovery. Boot into recovery and flash your prefered rom!
List of things I did
1. Use every version of TWRP
2. Wipe Data
3. Remove encryption
4. Change file system to ext4
still dont know whats up
You gave it a dead coctail. You have to know there are substantial differences between Marshmallow and Nougat builds (diff in partitions, diff TWRPs must be used), and in custs.

Old thread below:
-----------------------------------
About
This is a TWRP Installer ZIP and bootable IMG with extra capability such as Treble-izing, Dual boot repartitioning and other power-user tools with integrated Aroma Installer-powered GUI screens that I call Tissot Manager.
HIGHLY recommended reading and guide for everyone new to Treble - [TREBLE][GUIDE] From Stock to Treble - everything you need to know!. It also has some general protips hidden within there, for example the seamless/slot system interactions and nuances, so it's worth reading for anyone who wants to be a master of the Android flashing domain
Features:
TWRP fully Treble-ready with dual-boot ROM patcher;
Maintained with latest TWRP version;
Fully compatible with non-Treble devices - can be used as normal without Treble partitioning;
USB-OTG fixed
Has 'TWRP survival' function for automatically re-installing TWRP recovery when installing ROMs and kernels;
Option to install a payload ROM in the current slot, rather than the inactive one;
Option to ignore Payload<>Recovery certificate failures (fix for newer LOS-based ROMs);
Adds a "Tissot Manager" Aroma GUI to TWRP Advanced Menu (bottom-right button), which is the tool used to repartition the device for Treble and Dual boot, as well as some other nifty stuff:
Has the option to shrink System OR Userdata to create Vendor partitions. All relevant partitions will be resized and formatted in one go.
If you shrink System, you will keep max size Userdata - however it will be incompatible with non-Treble ROM's (they will crash on installing with Error 28 due to System being too small). It will Erase system, requiring you to reinstall a ROM or restore a ROM backup.
If you shrink Userdata, it will ERASE DATA AND INTERNAL STORAGE COMPLETELY - but your device will stay compatible with all existing non-Treble ROM's
Dual boot requires Userdata shrink and works by splitting into userdata_a and userdata_b. The partition split size is customizable during the repartition process.
Adds a "Patches" section with the following current options:
Patch the current Vendor for dual-boot capability (only required if automatic patching wasn't possible). See the 'About Dual-boot' section below for more information.
Enable an insecure ADBD on boot for the current slot (i.e. enable debugging and remove authentication requirement). Useful for ROM hackers/porters.
Patch the current slot to enable/disable forced userdata encryption
All of this info is detailed inside the Tissot Manager GUI.
See screenshots in post 2.
Instructions
Optionally boot the boot-recovery.img to get a temporary TWRP if you don't have it installed, unzipped from TWRP-boot.img-3.2.1-with-Tissot-Manager-x.x.zip:
Code:
fastboot boot boot-recovery.img
Warning - do not EVER flash this img - hotboot it only.
Flash the TWRP Installer. Any slot, any ROM, any existing Recovery - it doesn't matter - it will be installed to both slot kernels.
Reboot Recovery
Optional - Use the "Advanced > Tissot Manager" option for repartition options and other advanced ROM patches (Aroma Installer powered GUI - a fully guided and interactive process).
If you opted to repartition for Treble, you are ready to flash a Treble ROM/Vendor pack. Reminder - check out my full guide for learning and instructions on all things Treble.
About TWRP survival
TWRP survival is a simple hook that detects if a boot.img will be installed and restores TWRP after it's flashed. This only works if you have booted TWRP with Tissot Manager 2.0 from a real recovery boot - NOT from a recovery 'hot boot' (fastboot boot method).
You will see in the install log if a TWRP survival attempt is successful in the flash text output.
Automatic TWRP survival works when:
Flashing a ROM ZIP (or AIO) with TWRP
Flashing a boot.img in TWRP "Install Image" mode
Automatic TWRP survival does NOT work when:
Flashing a boot.img via fastboot
Restoring boot in a TWRP backup
Any other way of flashing a boot.img
In these cases, be sure the use the TWRP Installer immediately after flashing or restoring a backup - otherwise you may get the device into a confused state (especially if you restore a non-TWRP boot then try to install an AIO ROM without installing a new TWRP first).
About Dual-boot
Dual-boot on this device is relatively simple. As you know we have Slots - boot_a and _b, system_a and _b and vendor_a and _b (for Treble). This repartition splits userdata into userdata_a and _b too. You can simply change your Slot in TWRP reboot menu to change which ROM to boot.
This is designed for developers and testers - NOT for daily use. There are some significant issues with dual boot systems:
Any kind of security lock (PIN, fingerprint, etc.) set on one ROM will cause the other ROM to believe it has security too, but constantly fail with unlocking. This is reportedly because security info is stored on persist, which is shared between each slot (and not compatible with differing ROM's).
Because Userdata is split, so is Internal Storage. In TWRP, when changing slots, the MTP will remain mounted to the old slot - it must be manually disabled and renabled (Mounts menu) to update to the new slot.
I will not fix these issues - dual-boot is not designed to be for general/daily use and there may be more minor issues that I don't know about. It's intended for developers only.
In order for a ROM to be dual-boot compatible, the fstab file (information given to Android about partitions to mount) needs a small modification. This TWRP can try to do this patching automatically when you install a ROM, or it can be done manually in Tissot Manager's Patches menu (as well as single-boot patch to e.g. revert a ROM backup from a dual-boot state).
You will see in the install log if a dual-boot patch attempt is successful in the flash text output.
Automatic dual-boot patch occurs only if necessary when:
Flashing an AIO Treble ROM ZIP with TWRP
Flashing a vendor.img in TWRP "Install Image" mode
Automatic dual-boot patch does NOT work when:
Flashing a vendor.img via fastboot
Restoring vendor in a TWRP backup
Any other way of flashing a vendor
In any of these cases, you can manually patch Vendor for Dual Boot in Tissot Manager's Patches menu. You can also remove dualboot support the same way. It will detect the dualboot state of the current Vendor slot and present the available option. If you find that it doesn't actually change after patching, the Vendor is incompatible (please report it to me). RR AIO Vendor is tested OK.

FAQ
Q) After I flash TWRP, I get kicked into a Recovery loop when trying to boot the ROM!
A) This is probably because you have a kernel that does not disable dm-verity. To fix this, flash Magisk. The void kernel included in RR AIO does not have this problem and can therefore be safely used without Magisk (for e.g. GSI compatibility).
Q) After I flash TWRP, I get kicked into fastboot when trying to boot the ROM!
A) Your kernel is not Treble-compatible.
Q) How do I update TWRP?
A) Just flash the ZIP installer again, then Reboot Recovery. Note that this will erase Magisk on BOTH slots if you have it installed to either, requiring you to reflash it to one/both slots. See my Treble guide FAQ section for more info on Magisk interaction.
Q) My PC can't see the MTP (storage) device from TWRP!
A) For dualboot compatibility, MTP is automatically disabled at various points. Just enable it manually in the Mounts menu to get access.
Q) If I shrink Userdata for Treble, will stock and OTA work?
A) I have heard varying results on this. It does for some, not for others. Please assume that this will NOT work. It will definitely not work if you have shrunk system.
Q) Can I restore a non-Treble TWRP backup after I repartition for Treble? And the other way around?
A) Yes! In fact, this is the easiest way for...
...using stock ROM on Treble repartition (requires Userdata shrink ONLY). May also require a custom kernel with dm-verity disabled (see Questions above regarding fastboot kick and recovery loop).
...using a non-treble ROM if you shrunk System instead of Userdata since you cannot install non-Treble ROM ZIPs with a shrunk System (see next Q)
Q) I get some Error 28 when trying to install a ROM when repartitioned
A) You have shrunk System and are trying to install a non-Treble ROM. This is not possible AT ALL because the ROM ZIP expects a stock-size System. Use Userdata shrink mode instead if you want to be able to use non-Treble ROM's easily.
Q) I see "Failed to mount '/system' (Device or resource busy)" red error in TWRP after flashing a ROM
A) You can safely ignore it. You just need to reboot recovery before you can flash anything else (like Gapps) to this ROM.

Nice work!
Did you tested treble roms with this? Aex now have treble support
Omg, you are the best man. @mohancm also huge thanks to u man, great devs in our XDA.
I have never seen this kind of detailed, kind guide in XDA. You guys are awesome! Thanks for all this work!
One question : If I choose to shrink /userdata instead of /system,
1. Will I be able to flash stock rom by using MiFlash?
2. If I can, will I be able to get OTA and install them w/o issues?
3. Can I restore a TWRP backup that was made before repartitioning?(because of data on /data)
I think lots of people will be wondering about #3. If you think so too, then please add it in OP!
Thanks to all of you devs again!

This is just the repartition part, one step of Treble. You still need a Vendor pack. But yes, this enables Treble ROMs and the ROMs require repartition.

1. If you do, it will wipe partition map back to stock. So you will need to repartition with Treble Manager TWRP again. But you can make a backup of stock ROM in TWRP and just restore it after the repartition. It should work.
2. Don't know. Needs testing.
3. Yes! I forgot to add this to the FAQ.
Has this tpwr f2fs support and working?
Since Los support It i would like ti have
@CosmicDan
Thank you so much for your effort. I'm currently on stock and want to retain stock compatibility, so I'm going to wait until this becomes more polished before trying. I understand that Treble is not meant to be compatible with stock, so I realize my question might be out of place. Still, my question is:
Will you also release the .img file for Treble TWRP for those of us who don't want a permanent custom recovery?

It's indeed not intended to be compatible with stock ROM, but your mileage may vary, and as @CosmicDan said, it might work good enough or it won't. You can only try to see the results yourself.
This whole Treble thing is meant mainly for custom ROMS, since stock will never be Treble compatible (still, anything could happen)
I've just updated the TWRP with Treble Manager to 1.1 which fixed a semi-important bug.
Also, I've released a guide for those who find the Treble conversion/install process confusing - check it out. If you can, keep TWRP and Treble Manager specific questions in this thread, but ask your general questions and help over there - I will update the guide as I get feedback

FAQ
Q) If I shrink Userdata for Treble, will stock and OTA work?
A) Untested. Please report your results. But Treble is really not about Stock, you will likely encounter more problems down the line or it may turn out to be completely incompatible.
Q) Can I restore a non-Treble TWRP backup after I repartition for Treble? And the other way around?
A) Yes! In fact, this is the easiest/only way for...
...using stock ROM on Treble repartition (requires Userdata shrink ONLY). May also require a custom kernel with dm-verity disabled (untested - if you get bootloop when using stock, it means you do) or Magisk (also untested, may still get bootloop).
...using a non-treble ROM if you shrunk System instead of Userdata since you cannot install non-Treble ZIP's on ROM's with a shrunk Userdata (see next Q)
Q) I get some Error 28 when trying to install a ROM when repartitioned
A) You have shrunk System and are trying to install a non-Treble ROM. This is not possible AT ALL because the ROM ZIP expects a stock-size System. Use Userdata shrink mode instead if you want to be able to use non-Treble ROM's easily.
Q) I see "Unable to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)" red error in this TWRP
A) You can safely ignore it. It just means you have not repartitioned your device for Treble yet, so it can't mount the /vendor image.

Ay!
Have just finished testing about OTA on stock after Treblizing!
Result?!?
OTA works perfectly on stock after shrinking data to Treblize! Hurrah! ???
Process I followed:
1) Treblize by shrinking data
2) This is important: flash stock ROM in fastboot using MiFlash! When flashing for the first time, select "clean all and lock"! No other standard options working! I couldn't even boot stock using other options!
I've tested by fastboot flashing April build and then updating it to May OTA!
*** On a note: clean all will erase everything on your phone including your personal data!
If you use "save user data" then stock can't even boot! This may caused by the encryption!
BTW, after everything I just restored my non-Treble RR backup and everything works perfect! Just Treble Check app can't check that it's Treblized!
But don't worry! Treble partition table still remains! Fastboot flash can't touch that and can't recognize that it actually exists! Which to me is a good thing!
@CosmicDan, give me a thanks buddy! I deserve this!

But then I see no difference from a "normal" ROM ported specifically to a device. Should not Treble support be able to use them on several different devices?
For example, should not I be able to go to the AEX Treble download area and use it on ZF3? If it would not be the same as having to wait for a dev port AEX to ZF3.
I'm really confused lol

What do you expect? It's still in an early stage of porting. Some device specific bits still run from /system. GSI's may work but I doubt anything will work properly.
And I don't plan of supporting GSIs anyway.

Currently nothing much ( updated proprietary bits + vendor image taken in place )

Well, repartition works fine. After repartition a new /vendor partition of 1024mb will be made.
Although, you'll loose your data (apps+personal). So make sure to do a full backup of your device.
Feedback:
* HAVE A BACKUP. This tool messes with your partition table and is still unstable. Your data partition can be resized to the wrong size.
Will come back after a few months to provide more feedback. Appreciate the work guys.
Works fine for me, data is correctly resized even with multiple changes from normal to treble and back...
Can't seem to wipe /cache partition.
Anyone knows why?

Well, that's normal.
Since you're going to make a new /vendor partition of about 1024mb, /data should be deleted & recreated in order to give some space to the new partition.
Also, what do you mean with "can be resized to the wrong size"?
The tool is pretty stable tho. Can you give more info such as model (ex. ZE552KL 4/64), script version (ex. 4.3b) & other?
Thanks.
I've successfully installed this tool, although attempting to install the new LOS 16 Android 9 ROM we have on this forum results in an error: 7, "Failed to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)"
From what I've perused so far in my research, that error mostly crops up on non-treble builds of TWRP, yet I definitely used the latest version from your website. I also redownloaded the latest version of LOS just to recheck, and yep, nothing's changed.
Any clue about what's going on here? I don't know much about Treble ROMs, or custom ROMing to be all honest.
EDIT: I have found the enable Treble option. Even when enabled and installed, after reboot, the /vendor partition cannot be read. It seems that after doing this too, I can't load files over USB, or mount my SD Card. I'm getting pretty confused as to what's happening. I can't boot into system, and fastboot won't connect to my PC.

Hello,
I'm trying to install the full GApps suite on my Redmi Note 9 phone.
When trying to install it, I receive error 70 which means that my system partition is out of space.
I'm trying to resize this partition, but in either TWRP or OrangeFox I can't find it. Only available partitions are Cache/Data/USB/MicroSD.
I need the full suite, so the pico variant is no good here.
How do I enable the system partition so I can resize it and install the GApps suite?
