I'm trying to install baconbits on my G2 and I have a mac. I cannot seem to get the recovery image to work through fastboot. Help?
I can access the phone through the terminal but once I command it to reboot to the bootloader I can't get it to find the img file
There's a fastboot binary available for download from this page: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html
I have the binary in my sdk's tools folder but I still can't figure it out. Where/how do input the command to boot the img file?

You can flash files from recovery if they are on the SD card. You can either adb push while in recovery, or mount USB storage and tranfer the file. Or just transfer it via USB while the phone is on (big, green android screen)
I'm not sure how to install baconbits, but I think you need fastboot to flash the .img file. Recovery flashes .zip files and fastboot flashes .img files. You can put fastboot-mac in the same folder as adb... then fastboot flash recovery your_recovery.img. You really don't need adb (for this) since you can boot into fastboot on the phone by restarting while holding down the trackpad button.
These might be the droids you are looking for...
Code:
adb (read the instructions)
adb devices (you'll see your phone if it's plugged in, turned on, and in the proper mode)
adb reboot bootloader (white screen with androids on skateboards)
fastboot-mac (more reading...)
fastboot-mac devices (your phone again)
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
For some reason, I had a little trouble flashing my recovery- sometimes it would hang and wouldn't flash, sometimes it would only fastboot boot. So if you run into trouble, there might be other problems.
While you are at it, you might as well save yourself the trouble and either add the adb and flashboot folders into your path, or put the binaries somewhere in your path. I also renamed fastboot-mac to fastboot for simplicity.
Going to try that when I get out of class but I think you helped me realize what I was doing wrong. Thanks and will let you know if it works

Okay I could get the fastboot prompts to work but when I try to flash the recovery it tells me "g2recovery.img" could not be loaded
okay, used clockwork and got it to work. yay!
Hello guys!
Is your Yu Yureka stuck at the YU boot logo?
Is it not booting any further?
Here you can find the perfect solution to your problem!
Disclaimer
Do it on your own risk
Lets unbrick your device
First of all you will need to download the following files: (remove spaces and the links will work)
1. Minimal ADB Fastboot tool: drive. google. com/file/d/0ByxhrvEhhF3FSFU4SnNFR0hSYmc/view
2. Latest release Cyanogen Recovery and CyanogenMod build (ROM): download. cyanogenmod. org/?device=tomato
3. TWRP Recovery: drive. google. com/file/d/0ByxhrvEhhF3Fc0d6S0hMRTNQSW8/view
Now install the Minimal ADB and Fastboot tool.
After the program is installed correctly, open C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot in your computer.
Copy the CyanogenMod build(ROM) zip file in an external SD card and insert the SD card in your phone.
Now rename the Cyanogen recovery image your downloaded before to recovery.img and then copy it in the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder. Do copy the twrp.img also in the same folder.
In the folder, hold shift and right click anywhere in the empty space, there will be an option, "open command window here", click that. This is will open cmd prompt window.
Before continuing any further, make sure your device is charged at least 50%.
Now take the battery out from your Yu Yureka and connect it to the computer with the help of micro USB cable.
Yes, connect it without the battery, make sure its connected properly.
after connecting the phone, type this command in the cmd prompt:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If your device is detected and everything will be working,then this will flash the stock cyanogen recovery to your phone.
(Note:You must have renamed it and copied it to the folder as mentioned above )
Now remove the cable from your device, insert the battery, then hold volume up, volume down as well as power button simultaneously for a few seconds. This will take you to the recovery mode.
Format all your data and cache with help of the recovery option.
Now attach the cable again and type this commandin the command prompt:
adb fastboot bootloader
Wait till the device boots into the fastboot mode, thn type this command in the command prompt:
fastboot boot twrp.img
([OPTIONAL] Note: if you want to flash the TWRP recovery permanently on your phone, then type this command instead:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
and then manually reboot into recovery mode)
Now you will boot into TWRP recovery. Go to "wipe" option, followed by "advance" option then mark all option you see except sdcard, and wipe it all. This will delete all your data.
Now go to "install" option in the main recovery page. Direct to External SD card and find the CyanogenMod build you copied earlier to it. Then install it.
This will take time. After the installation will complete, TWRP will display the message "Successful".
Then reboot your phone. This will take at most 45 mins to install. So, kepp patients and wait till it boot completely.
Here you go!
your Yu Yureka is unbricked now.
I have tried this on my own Yureka and it works fine
Thank you all! :good:

Hi all im new to this forum.

so you can boot to recovery or bootloader?
try nexus root toolkit - there is an option to unbrick. Wipe everything and try to unbrick.
how windows detects your N7? maybe try different usb cable - if not genuine, then cut a lil bit of plastic, so it goes all the way to the usb port
give some photos of what errors do you have in recovery

I can boot to bootloader and thats it that tool can't write to any partitions thats what I tried in the first place it erased the partitions but then could not write to them so im left with no system no kernel or recovery
Download drivers from here
Open cmd as admin and type fastboot devices, it should detect your n7 with some numbers and letters.
If you have grouper (wifi) n7 then download recovery here
Go to bootloader, connect n7 with pc and type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Where twrp.img is the name of recovery file you downloaded.
Then type: fastboot reboot
In cmd you probably have to go to proper folder just use cd.. to go up a folder and cd name of the folder to go to proper folder. I use C:\adb as drivers install right there

Doesn't work for me the original recovery won't recognize adb device so here i have done this:
1) Flash a custom rom Oos based via twrp (i've done this with freedomos) DO NOT REBOOT phone after flash
2) Flash original OxygenOs firmware provided by oneplus site DO NOT REBOOT phone, not yet
3) Put original recovery in your sd card from your pc via twrp (if you don't already have it)
4) Install original recovery from twrp
5) After that, reboot to recovery and you should have the op original one, perform a factory reset via recovery
6) try starting device, if everything works you can finally re-lock bootloader (only if you want)
Solution
Thank you all for reply , i solved my problem with this step.

7) from the prompt you can put the command "adb devices" , for be sure the computer see your devices.
8) Now you can install your rom , put the command "adb sideload filename.zip"
Flashing stock recovery
1) Download stock Recovery OnePlus from here http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/OP5_recovery.img or else you can see on the download site of oneplus

Yes this is the "defualt" method.. Mine was in case your PC won't recognize adb in stock recovery, because it happened at too many people for what i've seen on oneplus 3/3t/5

Help! I tried to do the sideload but in my powershell window says "loading: 'update.zip' *cannot read 'update.zip'* " I don't know what's the problem, my computer can detect my phone with "adb devices" and "fasboot devices" so that's not the problem
Reason for that is adb on Windows can't read large files as it's not Large Address Aware, I'll get the article I use that has a tool that enables that when I get home, it's basically a small program you need to run that enables that functionality.

hello everyone..new on the forum..its my first post...
so, MODs pls delete or guide where to post this question although i didnt find any relevant thread...
i just bought a new asus m1 pro and have been trying to root it with majisk from 2 days but no luck..
here is what i did...
first i unlocked bootloader from asus website's apk..link is https://www.asus.com/in/Phone/ZenFone-Max-Pro-ZB601KL/HelpDesk_Download/
on this link 740KB bootloader unlocker
then instead of installing any drivers i installed asus pclink available on pclink.asus.com as i assumed it would contain drivers..although haven't started pclink program just completed installation..
then from this link https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/ under microsot windows adb setup heading 1st step gives u zip containing adb and fastboot drivers so extracted it and ran cmd from extracted folder and got twrp image file from https://forum.xda-developers.com/asus-zenfone-max-pro-m1/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-x-t3787134 got the twrp-3.2.2-1 20180727 57MB image file....
then ran cmd from extracted folder after connecting phone typed adb devices and device was there (gonna attach screenshots of cmd) and then adb reboot bootloader then fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (i copied twrp file to this folder and renamed it as twrp.img) and then fastboot reboot all this went fine in cmd according to me but i haven't used cmd before so i know nothing about it...
and yes after adb reobot bootloader the phone did switch off and restarted and phone screen displayed fastboot mode and after fastboot reboot phone did restart...
cmd screenshot..
https://imgur.com/anxoFAB
so even after all this i booted to recovery (vol down+lock) but i find that twrp is not there...its still the phone's recovery software...
what i can't seem to understand is after cmd showing everything it should there should be rare possibility of this happening..right?or does it happen more often?
if i would have got stuck in some other manner i would have searched web but this after a bit of searching seems rare...
experts please help....much needed...
