Team Win Recovery Project 2.3, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Key Features:
Graphical touchscreen interface with buttons and drag-to-scroll!
Ability to choose to compress backups – now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)
Compressed backups that can save you up to 50% disk space
Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore
Custom names for backups, rename and delete backups inside recovery
Integrated Terminal Emulator
Install queues allow you to install multiple zips in one go (e.g. CM9 zip together with gapps zip)
Easy one-button cache & dalvik cache clearing after an installation
Recovery settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots
File Manager that allows you to move, copy, delete and rename files and change their permissions
Battery percentage indicator, charging indicator and clock (set your timezone in settings!)
Reboot into download mode (bootloader)
Decryption of /data
Easy selection of internal/external storage
ADB support
Sideloading for automated ROM install:
Detailed logfile
XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout – true theming!
See changelog below for 2.3 features
What's new in 2.3.3.0:
Fix renaming backups with a space in the name
Add decrypt button to mount page if you cancel decryption during startup
Added ignore blkid flag
Fixed handling of MTD partitions during mount
Fixed some keyboard mapping issues on 800x1280 layout
What's new in 2.3:
-Rebased onto AOSP Jelly Bean source code
-Rewrote backup, restore, wipe, and mount code in C++ classes for easier maintenance going forward
NOTE: backups from prior versions of TWRP are still compatible with 2.3
-ADB sideload functionality from AOSP is included in 2.3, see this link for more info
-Re-wrote fix permissions entirely in C++ and runs in a few seconds instead of a few minutes (thanks to bigbiff)
-Improvements to zip finding in OpenRecoveryScript (should be a lot fewer GooManager automation issues)
-Faster boot times
-Added charging indicator while in recovery (only updates once every 60 seconds)
What works:
Backup & restore
Mount & Unmount partitions
Mount USM
What does not work:
Any sort of power functionality(reboot recovery, reboot system..)
Install:
Windows automatic installer now included! Automatic
Download
Extract and run install-linux.sh | install-windows.bat
Reboot into recovery by either using
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Or pressing the vol- and power keys simultaneously then letting go when you see an instructions screen then pressing power twice
Note: By downloading and installing the recovery package you take sole responsibility for any damages caused to your device. Addendum: ICS compatibility is yet to have been worked out so as of now this is GB only.

Decided to release public build as it seems backup & restore work well enough. Have fun with it and tell me what you think. Source:

Sorry to everyone in this community for not being very active I get really tired during the school days. But Christmas break is here and I'll see if there is anything useful I can do with my time off. I'll try and update to 2.3.3.0 tomorrow, thanks gollum!
@nigel, if you see this, if there is anything you need a second hand on, I'm free please feel free to contact me I'm eager to see what I can do
@troark I was not on windows while making this and I do not not batch by heart. I'll see what I can do tomorrow.

I can do the batch file if you need, also I'm having a problem with the cm.mk for the Viper. I'm going to try building a generic build and adding some Viper crap.

Ice Cream Sandwich isn't supported by any recovery on this phone because of some LGE madness.

OK I have 2 things.
1) Yes there will be a batch file added I'm going to make it and send it to him
2) Hey Nigel!!!! I got a Raspberry Pi now and I installed Android SDK on it. Can I have some help with getting it all set up? Or anyone?
I'm sorry about that nigel, I normally use skype and steam to keep up with friends and family. I can barely keep up with that as it is. Any services you use other than irc? PM me if so. I'd love to really start collaborating on some stuff!

I turned off my pm box because it's full (200+) so I use Google Chat. Just roll your mouse over my avatar, and the MobileNations passport should show you my Google+ link.
