[Q] TWRP: "custom recovery" not working anymore, TWRP not starting

Hi there,
I wanted to install latest CM10.1 coming from 0526 yesterday on my Defy+.
Did a backup with TWRP first.
Then the flashing failed, so I wanted to recover from backup.
Phone now is stuck at Motorola M not booting anymore.
When I enter bootloader (vol down) and want to enter "custom recover" he just jumps back to the same menu. TWRP is not starting.
Choosing "stock recovery" is possible, but if I choose a CM10.1 zip file it's not accepted.
RSD Lite does not recognize the phone when it's in the bootloader menu or in the stock recover menu.
Help is very much appreciated, what can I do?
Thanks and best regards.

Okay, I found out why I couldn't enter flash mode by using Vol+ when starting.
The phone powered already up when I put in the battery, so I always pushed Vol+ too late.
Pressing Vol+ WHILE inserting the battery did the trick, phone went into flash mode and I could re-flash 2.3.6 sbf using RSD lite.

Still not sure why TWRP was messed up just by recovering from a TWRP-made backup...
Best regards

Same situation to me.
I opened Terminal Emulator, gained root access
then type below command to get recovery mode
# reboot recovery

Custom recovery not running
I have a similar issue.
I rooted my stock S4 and installed the proper TWRP.
Heres where my situation is a bit different from anything I have seen on the forum threads. All attempts—both hard and soft—to reboot into recovery, all direct the reboot to Odin Mode. Just to clarify I have not flashed any rom custom or stock, the only thing I have flashed has been TWRP and CWM recovery. And I only flashed CWM AFTER the Failings of TWRP.
When I attempt to boot into recovery, it flashes the blue characters then sends me into a Odin Mode loop until I hard-key the "download mode" and select restart to boot the os normally.
my phone works fine other than not being able to flash custom roms, which is a pain in the arse especially with all the s4 Bloatware.
Here's what I have done so far to help myself:
• install CWM recovery
• tried hard-key reboot recovery (power off/ press home/volume up/power)
• soft reboot recovery through both Goo, CWM and ROM Toolbox pro
• removed my sd card and tried reboot recovery
• removed battery and reboot recovery
• emulator reboot recovery
• reboot recovery both with and without usb cable
I looked into flashing stock with Odin but all tutorials i could find were of an older version and I didnt want to guess what I needed to get that to work,
Please let me know if theres anything I can do.

[Q] Recovery Boot loop, can't go into recovery or my ROM: standby maybe have answer

Greetings.
I am sure there is an answer on XDA but an hour of Googling has got me stumped. Please point me to the right answer.
Starting point
Rooted N900T, stock rom, stock recovery.
What I did
Installed ROM Manager
Told ROM Manager to install the latest CWM for my phone. Completed with no errors.
Tried to boot into recovery with the standard "hold power, vol down, and home" but I could never get into recovery. It would look like it would start to boot into recovery then it would reset and boot into the regular ROM.
Then I told ROM Manager to reboot me into recovery.
Then it went badly... I am stuck in a boot loop that continuously shows going into recovery, then samsung logo, then repeat.
I have pulled the battery, tried to go into download mode, tried connecting USB, tried Odin.
What I want is a working phone. I would like to back up the stock rom and go to CM12 nightlies but for now I will just take a working phone.
Please help,
David
think I found the answer at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666432
At least I got out of the loop, not fixed but progress.
That worked, the only other piece of info you might need if someone else has this problem is that there is no PDA button on the latest version Odin, it is called AP

[Q] Recovery Boot Loop [Huge problem, need help]

Hi guys
I have a big problem with my note 3 hlte that i have never heard off... I run cyanogenmod 12 and i noticed when i flashed it that cwm recovery went back to stock recovery so i used app called Flashify and i "flashed" cwm that flashfy offerd me.
Afther that it offerd me to reboot into recovery witch i selected and now my phone is stuck in recovery boot loop....
It doesnt want to boot into recovery and i cant boot it normaly or download mode because its stuck in loop..
i tried removeing battery, draining power, leaving it for some time but every time when i return the battery and try to turn it on, its stuck..
very hard to explain, if you want i can record and upload it
(i would usualy flash a cwm via odin but i was to lazy to turn on my pc )
sorry for some gramatical mistakes

found solution
Volume down + home and pluging in usb automaticly boots into download mode

Find the correct cwn/twrp for your phone model & bootloader(4.3/4.4). Flash with odin.
The recovery corrupted, no big deal.

Stuck in a boot loop and can't access recovery mode

So I flashed a custom rom and it required a specific TWRP recovery. But after installing the custom rom I had to install another TWRP recovery otherwise it wouldn't boot into OS (this recovery was probably unsupported and thus my phone was forced to boot into OS)
So every time I wanted to boot into recovery mode I had to use an app like flashify and flash the first recovery to boot into recovery mode. And after finishing I had to flash the "unsupported" recovery again in order to boot into OS.
Now with the "unsupported" recovery, I installed Xposed and some modules and then restarted the device. And..........boom! The phone is stuck in a boot loop! And I can't even boot into recovery mode.
Now here's the other nightmares I'm getting:
1. Cant use ADB to flash a new recovery because my device is "unauthorized" and in order to fix that I need to go to developers option which is not possible (because of boot loop)
2. Uninstall Xposed: button combinations aren't working and I cant go to recovery mode to flash the uninstaller zip
3. vol up + vol down + power button doesn't open recovery because the recovery is "unsupported"
4. Can't even boot to fastboot mode by holding vol down + power. It tries to boot into OS and starts boot looping
5. Can't use sp flash tool to flash stock rom or recovery because whenever I connect the phone to PC, the phone tries to boot into OS and....you guessed it starts boot looping.
Now I'm out of ideas and really depressed. If anyone can help me out with this I'll be grateful forever.
My device is: Lenovo k4 note
Chipset: MediaTek MT6753
Currently on this recovery: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298981920
Got this recovery from here (recovery2): https://forum.xda-developers.com/k4-note/development/unofficial-resurrection-remix-5-8-2-t3570195
Thanks!

Update: The problem is solved after flashing stock rom via sp flash tool

I think the pc cant dtect my device same problem bro after installing new rom it keeps on rebooting after the lenovo logo. Cant also access the recovery mode. Please help me

Bro I'm not an expert. Someone from XDA discord server helped me with this. And I actually forgot the exact thing I did to be honest. I downloaded the sp flash tool on pc and downloaded the stock rom. Then flashed it to the phone. You have to connect your device via USB before. For a detailed guide you can search on YouTube with something like "how to flash stock rom via sp flash tool"
Or ask in the discord server. They will surely help you.

How did you flash that? Can you please explain step by step

You can download the stock rom from here. And there is also a tutorial on how to flash it. I followed it. Hope that helps!

Thanks, the problem is my phone is struck on the Lenovo logo, it's not turning off but my computer deducted it as Lenovo device

If ADB can detect your device then you can just flash a new recovery and you should be fine. But as I said I'm not an expert so I'd suggest you to ask for help on the XDA discord server. That's where I got help from.

Did anyone found the solution?
Thanks

Can any one find the solution of that problem , because my lenovo k4 note also stuck on boot looping logo... and vibrate like bootup time

HELP ASAP I was installing my custom recovery and my phone entered a bootloop.

So I was installing twrp and everything went right until it didnt boot to the recovery and from then it keeps booting to lg logo and bootloader warning forever.
I know I can install the stock rom with lg up by I cannot enter download mode since the phone isnt technically turned off. Does anyoene have a solution.
It's my main phone and I literally cannot afford a phone right now.
A way to turn it off would be the solution. Battery was around 70% so it will take a long time to actually have 0%.
Update: I got to the fasboot menu from where I can run fastboot reboot recovery after installing twrp again. Now I have some mounting issues and I cannot flash any zip without entering bootloop. Im trying to use the shut down menu of twrp to try to enter download mode.
2nd Update: solved using lg up with the latest android version.
