You can't. We've got someone looking at making ur TWRP for ya

Thank you so much for helping with this phone (ZTE Speed). I would usually never buy a phone that couldn't be rooted, but I just needed a backup phone and it was only $20.

Any eta on getting TWRP out to us?

bcrichster · Mar 31, 2016

ETA? Not yet.. Our guy has been busy racking his brains with CM13/MM for our Warp Syncs. I'm sure he'll hook you guys up when he gets past his stresses. He did say he'd look into it tho. [emoji41]

Can someone run the following commands on your rooted device and upload the 2 resulting files (parts_byname and parts_mmcblk) which will be created on your /sdcard?

Using adb shell:

Code:

adb shell su -C "ls -al /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name > /sdcard/parts_byname"
adb shell "cat /proc/partitions > /sdcard/parts_mmcblk"

Using terminal emulator:

Code:

cat /proc/partitions > /sdcard/parts_mmcblk
su
ls -al /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name > /sdcard/parts_byname

Thanks

Isn't the by-name in the kernel & recovery files that were uploaded?

I don't think so, but now I am confused because they uploaded a TWRP backup. Last I checked you need TWRP to create this backup.

Anyway, in order to build TWRP, I need the full list of by-name directories and their mmcblk couterparts so I can determine all the partition sizes.

I had them use Online Nandroid by ur boy H3r3t1C.. So they uploaded both a TWRP backup and CWM backup, plus Flashify copies of the boot & recovery

Oh right, forgot about that

Still need someone to run those commands and upload the files to build TWRP. It will just take a minute as they will be very small. Fighting with the kernel source right now. Zte has done a wonderful job messing it up again lol

bcrichster · Apr 1, 2016

Lmao! Right on bro! The faster they jump the sooner they'll be set

I would help, but the phone is not in my hand now.
I will try it over weekend.

here are what I got from last time I temporally rooted the phone.

In /dev/block/platform directory, I found 2 folders 7824900.sdhci and 7864900.sdhci.
In 7824900.sdhci, there are folders by-name and by by-num
In 7864900.sdhci, there is only folder by-num.

In /dev/block/platform/7824900.sdhci/by-name , I found out that
boot -> mmcblk0p23
recovery -> mmcblk0p24
system -> mmcblk0p31

Thanks, but really I just need the partition sizes and those 2 commands I posted will achieve that goal

Currently having a ton of trouble with this kernel. It keeps crashing my machine lol. Go Zte :cool:

You're still Rockin' tho!! Ty- again, sir. These guys got left behind like a MoFo and trying to help show a little Root Love! If in depth testing becomes an issue/needed just let me know and I'll grab/order one today.

Someone will need to test it when I get it built

However, it should not brick devices even if it does not work since you don't need recovery to boot to Android. You have the stock recovery.img so it would just be a matter of flashing that from flashify if things go badly.

bcrichster · Apr 1, 2016

Exactly & understood. I'm hoping that the Speed guys will do a good job for ya but I will get a devving device if you need.

SuperR · Apr 1, 2016

Got the kernel source all fixed up

edit: Here is the source

edit2: Device tree is ready. Only waiting on those files I requested earlier to build TWRP

al ways · Apr 1, 2016

please download 2 files from here
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3MDQgamglX_RmVlb1d3Um5sc0U

SuperR · Apr 1, 2016

Please give this a try

TWRP-2.8.7.0-speed.img

Flash with flashify to recovery partition. Keep your stock recovery handy in case you need to restore it.

edit: Here is the device tree

coffinsupply · Apr 2, 2016

so I need temp root to do this correct?

Yes

al ways · Apr 2, 2016

I have flashed the img with flashify.
After reboot the phone, it took very long time stuck on red led, so I long pressed the power button.
Now, when I press power and volume down together, the phone still goes to factory recovery not twrp recovery.
Is there anything I missed?
