Hi all,
I'm trying to install TWRP recovery on a Wiko Sunny.
I have made hudreds of unsuccessful trials using all methods I can have heard on...
So I gave a try to Auto TWRP Recovery Porter V1.4
The phone was already rooted, and I had PhilZ Touch 6.59.0 installed.
Also installed was the wiko official update Android Marshmallow 6 [23] kernel 3.18.19
from which I took the stock recovery to port. The Recovery Porter found DM verity
true, and asked for a boot.img patch, but it was irrelevant, as the phone was rooted.
Anyway, I tried to install the patched recovery, and ended with a TWRP screen where
the touch was inactive, so I couldn't swipe to go on. I then thought it dipended by the
recovery I used, or, as I have read somewhere, by a kernel problem. After other useless
trials, I guessed that it couldn't be a kernel issue, because PhilZ touch used this very kernel
and had touch active. So I tried to use the PhilZ recovery image as input for the TWRP
Porter. This time I had the "No DM verity found" message, but the final result was the same,
no touch. So I suppose that the problem is in the TWRP recovery itself.
I have found old similar issues on this forum, but in most cases I couldn't test the solutions
given there, because their links were broken and the files lost.
Summing up, it appears that the recovery obtained from Recovery Porter v1.4 using recovery.img
of PhilZ Touch 6.59.0 is the most likely to be modified to achieve a successful TWRP on Wiko Sunny...
Any hint?
Best regards
