SAFESTRAP v3.11 (2nd-System Bootstrap / Recovery)

PRIOR TO UPGRADING TO V3.x FROM V2.x MOVE THE /sdcard/safestrap FOLDER FROM YOUR /sdcard TO THE /sdcard-ext. THIS OPENS UP VALUABLE INTERNAL EMMC SPACE WHERE ROM SLOTS ARE CREATED. AND KEEPS YOUR V2 BACKUPS SAFE IN CASE YOU WANT TO REVERT TO V2 AND USE THEM TO RESTORE.

[ DOUBLE-CHECK you have the BIONIC/RAZR/DROID4 VERSION ]

CHANGES:

• [12/29] (3.11) Allow use of custom updater-binary in .zip files for flashing on stock ROM (virtual slots still use prebuilt updater-binary in recovery).
• [12/29] (3.11) BUGFIX: Fixed fake flash error at the end of a .zip install. (No real error, .zip installs fine)
• [12/29] (3.10) Early support for booting custom ROMs on stock partitions.
• [12/29] (3.10) Enable flashing to stock ROM *BE CAREFUL -- NEW FEATURE -- STILL TESTING*
  
  • After .zip installations, nandroid restore or system wipe on the stock ROM: the current Safestrap files are restored to the system partition (Doesn't include the APK in /data -- so if you're restoring an old backup, be sure to update the Safestrap APK)
  • During the Safestrap files restore a check is done to be sure there are minimal files on /system to re-enter Safestrap
• [12/29] (3.10) New virtual system partitions will be 640mb (closer match to stock RAZR/D4)
• [12/27] (3.07) Bugfix: missed some changes in Safestrap 3.06
• [12/26] (3.06) Bugfix/Update for JB4.1 OTA for DroidRAZR (Non-JB devices can also use)
• [10/17] (3.05) Fixed SD card / emmc sharing in recovery (UMS)
• [10/17] (3.05) Fixed recovery installation/removal from ROM-slots
• [10/14] Updated to v3.04 BETA.
• [10/14] Recovery is now based off TWRP 2.2.2.1 (fully featured touch-based recovery)
• [10/14] Can create up to 4 Virtual ROM-slots to flash ROMs to and when "Active" ALL TWRP functions affect that ROM-slot (For example: Flashing .zips, Backup and Restore)
• [10/14] Nearly instant swapping from ROM to ROM
• [10/14] User selectable data partition sizes during ROM slot creation: 1GB, 2GB or 3GB
• [10/14] ROM slots are saved on the internal emmc space so that preinstall and webtop partitions are no longer used and shouldn't break OTAs.
• [10/14] Charging in recovery
• [10/14] Supports "Reboot Recovery" from Android OS

Entry to recovery via Splashscreen on boot-up. The screen stays up for around 8-10 seconds and if you hit the menu button, it takes you to Safestrap Recovery.


SPECIAL THANKS TO:

• The entire TWRP team who has built an AMAZING recovery system.
• The testers which have helped in past and present versions of Safestrap, knowing that it could mean they brick their devices.

As always, let me know what you think!

...that awkward moment when you are using SS v2.11 for probably the last time and realize that you could have been using the capacitive keys to navigate through the menus all this time but instead have been using the volume rocker and on/off button...

Safestrap v3.04 is fantastic..thanks so much hashcode

[bwillis23]

Will we still be able to flash V2 backups with V3? If not I'll just make new ones. Great work on this always a fan

Bionx RAZR overclocked and supercharged

No, nothing from v2 is transferrable.

This is sick! It takes me longer to flash and set up a ROM now than it does to switch them. I love it, only minor annoyance is the images coming over to the gallery on the stock ROM. No way to add a period when we switch back is there? Either way it is a small price to pay for such a wonder app. Thanks!

[HOFFA]

I'm Loving it. 4 rom slots. Have 3 filled. Which is the 4th I wonder. Gj Devs. 10 out of 10 stars from my stand point.

[HOFFA]

Wow navigating 4 roms this quick. Im happy.

[Hashcode]

Updated the OP to version 3.05 which includes:

- Fix for sharing the SD card / internal emmc via recovery (UMS)
- Fixed the install/update function for Safestrap while currently in a ROM-slot (don't do this when updating to 3.05 -- but it's safe after that).

Thanks again Hash an Team TWRP

Just to be clear... when updating from 3.04 to 3.05...

1. Are we to switch to the stock rom before updating SS?

2. Can we just download it and update in the stock rom over 3.04 or do we need to uninstall SS like going to 3.04 from 2.11? What do we need to do with the recovery within the app itself after installing 3.05?

Sorry for the basic questions but I'm sure others will benefit from reading your answers! And thanks for all your amazing work. 3.04 was bad@$$. Can't wait for more!

I would love to know the answer to this man's question as well.....

Thanks

Yes, swap back to stock ROM first and yes you can install it over 3.04, but not over 2.11.

Safestrap 3 is awesome. I do have one question. Can I move the safe strap folder to the external SD card? It's currently stored on the internal card and I keep getting an error that space is running low.
