[Q] Flashing TWRP over RA recovery - Acer Iconia A500

As the title says, GooMananger appears to download and notifies "recovery successfully installed!" but on reboot recovery, its still RA-Iconia-3.17. I've done the same process more than 5 times with the same result.
I have tried to install the image via fastboot, but on reboot, again, its RA recovery.
Can anyone lend a hand?
Running FLEX-Resurrection_Rev1, Android 4.0.4

Can somebody help?

[help] Can't install twrp

hii guys i can't install twrp on my play.....whenever i enter the command i get the error
"error: cannot load twrp-lux-2.8.7.0"
also the windroid tool says twrp flashed successfully but when i reboot into recovery it boots into stock recovery with "no command" on display
any help appreciated
What are you typing when trying to flash?
fastboot flash recovery nameoffile.img
Not sure if you are having the same issue I did.
Are you flashing TWRP then using the reboot command to restart your phone immediately?
If so, try flashing TWRP again. Instead of rebooting, try to access the recovery menu right after flashing. This worked for me. The post I saw related to this mentioned the Moto was overwriting something when rebooting. I haven't had any issues since.

SuperSU won't update binary

So I rooted my Nexus Player running Marshmallow (6.0) using the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344
My bootloader is unlocked, I flashed the boot.img from the first post in the above thread, (already flashed TWRP), then booted into recovery and flashed SuperSU 2.56 from the 2nd post. When I launch SuperSU it tells me that the SU binary needs to be updated, but it can't do it the "normal" way so I try to do it via the TWRP way, it says it's going to attempt to boot into recovery, but recovery never comes up, it looks like it's rebooting, and just hangs on a black screen. So I tried doing "adb reboot recovery" when SuperSU says it's going to try to reboot into recovery itself and do that before clicking ok, but I get the same results. If I go into recovery via the hardware button, no updating happens. It just loads recovery. If I load up the Nexus Player like normal boot, and connected to my PC do "adb reboot recovery" it loads the recovery fine without hanging on any black screen.
So I'm at a loss here on what to do. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Tried Installing CynagenMod 13, Stuck In a weird Recovery Bootloop

Hello Guys,
So i managed to fix my previous error. Now I'm at the end almost. I'm installing CynagenMod 13 on my N9005. I installed ClockworkMod Recovery, I think. I say I think because when i try to boot into it I get the below message.
"Recovery Booting"
"Set Recovery Bit : recovery"
Then it goes black and vibrates twice and boots normally.
I have the CynagenMod in a zip on my SD and the guide i am following refers to the ClockworkMod Recovery menu. The normal Recovery menu loads fine, ClockworkMod Recovery doesn't seem to load. Can i use the normal Recovery or does anyone know a way of getting ClockworkMod Recovery to work?
Root is not required to flash a custom rom or recovery.
Try flashing twrp and then flashing a rom from twrp.

You forgot to reboot recovery instead of the system after flashing TWRP so have lost TWRP. There is essentially no recovery on the phone now which is why you are getting that message. You need to boot TWRP using the fastboot image from fastmode mode and then reinstall TWRP again from there. Make sure to reboot to recovery after flashing. TWRP should stick after this.
