Download another version of mfastboot, or simply just fastboot, or try from scratch again!
I saw earlier your mfastboot folder has recovery.img, so cannot be a misplace error!
Still check again it is there! Otherwise, do what i wrote in first line!

[ROOT][DETAILED] MOTO E Rooting and Flashing Recovery 100% Working

TIP: if your moto e is currently rooted and you're using kitkat then I recommend you to install Lollipop on your phone.(it's awesome I tried it) follow this guide here: Here's How I Upgraded from Kitkat4.4 to Lollipop5.1 with working GravityBox (xposed)
"Many of moto E users, including me, is having the problem of getting stuck when flashing the recovery."

}
"So I decided to make a thread for explanation."
1. Bootloader must be unlocked. if not, Unlock the bootloader from here
(a). Download the CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery For MOTO E. this recovery is required temporary for flashing "SuperSU".
(b). So download UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip
(c). Download the latest TWRP Recovery TWRP 2.7.2.0 V2.2. this will be your new default recovery.
STEPS:-
1. Copy "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip" into the phone's SD card (could be internal memory)
2. Boot into bootloader (switch off the phone -> hold volume down+power button for 6 seconds -> release the buttons and wait for 1 second)
3.Connect USB to phone in bootloader menu.
4.Copy "cwm 6.0.4.9_recovery.img" (downloaded from step a) and "moto_e_twrp2.7.2.0_v2.2.img" (downloaded from step c) to "adb folder" in desktop.
5. First, we have to flash CWM recovery so that we can flash SuperSU. Enter in cmd
Code:
fastboot flash recovery cwm6. 0.4.9_recovery
it will give an error like "mismatched partition size(recovery)" but it's normal
Now press the volume down once(move to recovery) then volume up(to select) and wait till shows this
wait some more and there you are in CWM recovery.
6. Choose "install from sdcard" and select "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip" downloaded in (b) step.
[*NOTE*
>>CWM recovery itself has a rooting menu item, it'll be displayed when you want to reboot. It'll ask if it should root the device - but it won't work.So You should go the SuperSU way.]
>>When you select a CWM reboot after applying SuperSU, CWM displayed "root access may have been lost - fix?". Please select "No", it'll work fine]
7.After installation of SuperSU you can reboot the device. Since now we have rooted the device by flashing SuperSU,we can install the TWRP Touch recovery. repeat 2. and 3. step
8. Enter in cmd:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery moto_e_twrp2.7.2.0_v2.2.img
it will give same error as in step 5 but that's normal. Now you have successfully installed the TWRP recovery.
To go into recovery you have to select volume up button (instead of power button like in most HTC phones).
Bonus:To remove the unlocked bootloader message you see everytime you boot your moto e follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52692225&postcount=2

Well there is already a "How to root" thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755336
Besides this is again a "how to" thread. Should be in general section. It has no development. So please report your thread and request to move it.
Also, 2 recoveries are not needed to root. Either of those 2 is enough.

CWM link is down, Please make a mirror and better upload it at a host which does not put bandwidth or download cap!
Recommendations would be Google Drive, Dev-Host, Mega etc.
Also For the CWM, where did you find a working version for moto E?
I'd like to visit the source!

None of the ways are working after OTA update to 4.4.4
After updating my Moto E to 4.4.4 today, I tried to root it. I tried both the ways (with TWRP and with CWM) but not together.
The results are disappointing.
When I used the "only boot with recovery" option (fastboot boot recovery....img), I got a frozen white screen with the Moto logo in the center the instant I issued the fastboot command. Nothing else happened.
When I used the "flash recovery" option (fastboot flash recovery recovery....img) and tried to load the recovery I just flashed, I got a small graphic in the center with "No Command" written at the bottom. Nothing else happened.
I'm still trying, will update if situation improves...
Update: Finally CWM worked. I started from the beginning, followed the steps and I now have root.
Warning:
1. CWM recovery itself has a rooting menu item, displayed when you want to reboot. It asks if it should root the device - but doesn't work. You should go the SuperSU way.
2. When you select a CWM reboot after applying SuperSU, CWM displayed "root access may have been lost - fix?". I selected "No" and it worked fine.

** boot ** means you are just using the recovery untill next boot, so to install recovery permanently you have to flash with ** flash** method.you can choose to flash the cwm recovery too (instead of twrp) )after rooting the phone.

Hi there!
I present the best, the easiest (mm maybe not) and most proper way to root and flash a custom ROM on your Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact!
Requirements:
- A basic understanding of Rooting and Android Development
- ADB and Fastboot (Have a google for Minimal ADB And Fastboot)
- A windows PC (I am not sure how to root with mac, although I am sure it is the same process)
- OEM Unlocking Enabled on your Device.
Don't know how to enable OEM Unlocking? Do this:
Settings -> About Device -> Tap Build Number 7 Times - Back -> Developer Options -> OEM Unlocking -> Enable
Also, if you ever get a message saying: Allow USB Debugging, do this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
We'll start with Unlocking your Boot loader. I might as well point out that this will remove ***ALL*** of your apps and files etc. I should also say that you will lose some capability features - such as the Camera may not be as good - although to be perfectly honest I haven't noticed any changes!
Lets start right away: Bootloader
What is your Bootloader?
Your bootloader is a part of your android device that when unlocked, allows you to do lots of things with it! This includes rooting (Like we are now :laugh, flashing recoveries and more.
Is it safe to do this?
As long as you follow my steps, you should be ok. But I have warned you.
Now head to here. This is the official Bootloader unlocking page. Scroll down to the device selection and put in "Z3 Tablet Compact"
Connect your tablet to your compter,
Do the steps it asks and... done!
Congratulations, your Bootloader is Unlocked!
It may seem silly, but for me, this is the only Hard part!
Now let's flash our TWRP!
Before you do this, make sure you have booted after unlocking your Bootloader. I dont know if it will make a huge difference, but I did it, so you should as well. It worked for me like that
What is TWRP
TWRP is a Custom Recovery
Wow, helpful. :laugh: What's a custom recovery?
As android central say:
In Android, recovery refers to the dedicated, bootable partition that has the recovery console installed. A combination of key presses (or instructions from a command line) will boot your phone to recovery, where you can find tools to help repair (recover) your installation as well as install official OS updates.
This means it is a way of changing things that you can't change if you are booted into System (System is Usual Home screen etc...)
Is TWRP Safe?
It's only ever as safe as you are! - Just make sure you flash (install) the right version!
We start by flashing TWRP.
Head to http://twrp.me and click on Devices. Find specifically YOUR version if the Tablet (scorpion_windy is the NON-LTE Version).
Download it.
Drag that file into an empty folder. Then in the address bar, type "cmd"
A black window should pop up.
In this window, type: adb devices
This should display your device.
Now type: adb reboot bootloader
You should now have a blue light on your device.
You cannot perform adb commands anymore! You now are in Fastboot mode. I dont need to explain that, but you need to know that!
Now type: fastboot flash boot twrp-xxxx-scorpion(_windy).img
Congratulations, TWRP Recovery is now Flashed!
(Provided it says everything is ok. )
Our last step is rooting This is an easy task, but requires TWRP - hence why we installed it.
Grab the latest copy of SuperSU from supersu.com - make sure you get the XPERIA SuperSu - and boot into twrp. (Booting into twrp can be done by mashing volume keys after holding down the power key and it vibrates haha). Press install and find your copy of SuperSU (which you should have loaded onto your tablet beforehand). Swipe to flash, and done!
If your tablet bootloops (doesn't turn on), Install a custom rom. I am currently using: this unofficial lineage (14.1).
To do this, boot into TWRP and press install. Find your Rom file (Like you did for Rooting) and swipe to flash. (Make sure you wipe data, system, cache and dalvik beforehand!). You can now reflash your SuperSU Zip and bam, rooted.
You may also want GApps (Google Apps). So head to opengapps.org and select the right package for you. When you flash GApps, make sure you do right after you flashed the rom (dont boot after flashing your rom.)
When I am flashing something I will normally do this:
TWRP -> Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> System, Cache, Data, Dalvik Cache -> Back -> Install -> ROM -> Add more Zips -> GApps -> SuperSU -> Back -> Reboot -> Reboot system.
Hopefully, you should now be rooted with a custom rom and all. Enjoy!
I should point out that (At the time of writing this) I am only 12 years old. If I have made a few mistakes, please correct me! Thank you

That should be fastboot flash recovery twrp-xxxx-scorpion(_windy).img. As this is the most recent guide I'll post this here, yesterday I decided to wipe my tablet and it turned into a real pita, flashing the recovery partition flashed ok would was real problematic trying to get it to to boot for some reason and in trying to get it to boot I was flashing numerous different files to the phone, but as hate I doing things that way I soldiered on trying to find the cleanest solution and eventually managed it.
These are the steps that I used, my BL is already unlocked...
1. Full clean install of 291.
2. Run my stock kernel through PoC and Rootkernel.
3. Used Rootkernel to add SuperSU and TWRP to the kernel.​...so now I have a rooted stock 291 with TWRP 3.0.2-0 and my DRM keys intact. To enter TWRP I start pressing the vol+ repeatedly when a yellowish light appears.

I may be mistaken though, so if it bricks the device, use Sony's Emma flash tool

Just tried it on the off chance it might work but doesn't, it just writes the recovery to the boot partition so will only boot to TWRP, just flashed the recovery partition again and now not getting any light. It's a strange one this, going to stick my method.

Weird ?
I'm using the SGP612 So there might be a difference? I'm assuming your using 621 (You mentioned PoC)
My friend did the command but he told me that is what it was. I'll grab the full list of commands from him, but flashing twrp was definitely to boot!
Nevermind haha!

Just out of curiosity, about how much battery power does it take to flash the custom ROM to solve the bootloop problem (which happened to me) and are there any other ways of flashing a custom ROM that do not consume battery power?

Hi there, sorry for long reply - I've been inactive for quite a while as I didn't have a device to hack with. My tablet unfortunately died!
Anything done on a device, whether it be playing games, streaming media, or using TWRP Recovery will consume Battery.
The un-bootloop problem will take charge from your device, but it is safe to keep the device plugged in, charging, whilst you perform the commands.
If all else fails, use Emma as I mentioned before.

I made a boot.img for the SGP612 [6.0.1] [23.5.A.1.291] unlocked BL.
Sony RIC disabled
TWRP 3.0.2
(DRM fix)
Root and Xposed is NOT included. I recommend flashing Magisk v12 later in TWRP and enable Magisk Core Only Mode and Magisk Hide in the settings. Then it will pass the SafetyNet test and you can use su.
To flash the boot.img, put your SGP612 into fastboot mode (Volume Up + connect USB) and then run:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
If you have a backup of your TA partition, before you unlocked, see the rootkernel thread by tobias.waldvogel, how the DRM fix works.
Thanks to codfx for give me the idea for a SGP612 counterpart and to tobias.waldvogel for his tool :good:

Hello, i hope people will be able to help me, i've been stupid and tried rooting my tablet without the necessary knowledge , from what i understood i flashed twrp on boot instead of recovery and now i can't use my tablet at all.
Is there a way to get the old system back ?

Does the rom link given here unzips perfectly?
Because i saw in another thread of Lenovo K8note titled firmware, users unable to unzip due to error in system img. Also downloading from baidu needs a user id. If its possible could you or anyone else reading this upload it in some other online storage drive. Im little bit worried about getting a worse situation while rooting. Even if it goes wrong i can use the stock firmware to make it back.

Yes, I think so. Anyhow there is no need to unlock oem again if you are flashing the rom via TWRP. Anyhow let someone confirm about it.

DISCLAIMER:
I'm not responsible for any damaged watches or other broken things! All of this is still heavily in development and mainly a developer release, not at all recommended for normal usage!
The following tutorial CAN brick your watch if you're not careful enough! Once again I'm not taking any responsibility!
This has only been tested on Android N so far, Android O is not yet fully tested!​
---------------------------------------------------------
Please read before doing anything:
This is a port of TWRP for the Ticwatch E. Currently we're not able to boot it via fastboot (well, it technically does but there's an issue with the video driver) and when trying to flash it the watch will instantly flash the stock recovery over it upon reboot.
To avoid this we have to do a little workaround! Once you reboot your watch it'll restore the stock recovery again! After following these steps your watch will be stuck in a bootloop which we'll fix too tho.
Please keep the Changelog below in mind and read what's working and what's not before asking. We may or may not have seen this issue before already.
Files you'll need:
v003 of "TWRP for Ticwatch E" (and most likely S) - OneDrive Mirror
Stock Recovery for Ticwatch E (and most likely S) - OneDrive Mirror
ADB and Fastboot drivers installed (I recommend "15 Seconds ADB Installer")
Changelog:
Updated Instructions:
Slightly updated the instructions so you won't lose any data if you're already on an bootloader unlocked watch!
v003 (OneDrive Mirror):
Managed to make TWRP persistent! Check Instructions on how to.
v002 (OneDrive Mirror):
Now includes systemless root package inside the TWRP image so you're able to root your watch!
v001 (OneDrive Mirror):
Initial release, no ADB so far. Can't be booted from fastboot directly either due to weird fastboot behavior and has to be flashed first. However upon normal reboot Mobvoi decided to flash over the stock recovery again so we have to do a workaround.
Instructions:
The new Instructions by Luxios require a few less steps AND if you've already unlocked your watch before you won't even lose data!
Enable ADB in the Developer Settings
Once done connect your watch to your computer and do "adb reboot bootloader"
THIS WILL RESET YOUR WATCH:*Once in fastboot mode type "fastboot oem unlock" (if you already have an unlocked bootloader you [font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]can skip this[/font])
Follow the on-screen instructions on your watch to unlock it (if you already have an unlocked bootloader you can skip this)
Reboot via "fastboot reboot" and wait until Android Wear fully starts up
One started reboot to the bootloader via the same command as above
Once the bootloader shows up again type "fastboot flash recovery TWRP_TicwatchE_v003.img"
After that type "fastboot oem reboot-recovery" to reboot to the TWRP recovery
In order to make TWRP persistent you need to go to "Install" > "Install ZIP" > "supersu" > "TicwatchE_TWRP_keeper.zip" and flash it
Upon rebooting you may notice it'll get stuck in an infinite TWRP bootloop. To fix this boot into TWRP, then choose "Reboot" > "Bootloader", back in fastboot type "fastboot boot StockRecovery_TicwatchE.img" and wait a few seconds, a few reboots later Android Wear should start right up again.
If you want to root your watch reboot it once again with "adb reboot recovery" and go to the same folder as above, tho this time flash "SuperSU-2.79-wear_systemless.zip"
Unroot/Remove TWRP for Android O Update:
Go to this thread to also update directly to the last Android O update and revert all customizations: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm...es/android-o-super-easy-ticwatch-e-s-t3789835
Have fun!

You're the best! I'm gonna try as soon as I can, and let you know.

Ok, I'm trying to flash it.
Problem is, it flashes, but when I do fastboot reboot, it will boot in android wear instead that TWRP.
If then I reboot in the recovery with adb reboot recovery, it will be already the stock recovery again... Any tip?

If your bootloader is (or was) already unlocked you have to lock and then unlock it again for it to work.

Yes sorry, I noticed that right after posting, but I've bad network.
Now seems to have gone all fine, I'm booting it, I'm only unsure it flashed SuperSU well, since it shown an error at the end of the script, although the rest of the log seemed to report all to go fine.

The guy who made it initially did send me a picture of it successfully rooted. Should work, errors can happen since TWRP can't write to all partitions yet.

Sadly it looks like SuperSU failed to root. It gave a data partition mounting error at the end of the script, don't know if it is normal. TWRP isn't able to mount data either.
EDIT: Looks like I found a way to boot TWRP without having to lock/unlock bootloader.
Doing this, I managed to boot TWRP after setting the watch up, and in this way, it didn't fail to mount /data. Let's see...
EDIT2: now SuperSU still fails, but for a different reason. I'm gonna ensure that it failed though.
EDIT3: su command responded, so seems that root works. I'll do some more tests.

TWRP is now persistent! Check the updated guide

Rooting succeeded!
Seems like I managed to root the smartwatch using the version 2. For the moment I'm happy like this, next times I'll indeed use new procedures.
EDIT: Yes, I rooted it.
My steps (the ones on OP are the recommended ones):
-Bootloader unlock;
-Boot in Android Wear to enable ADB from Settings;
-Reboot in bootloader with "adb reboot bootloader";
-Flashed this TWRP v2;
-"fastboot reboot", then "adb reboot recovery" as soon as adb was detected while booting.
In this way I managed to avoid the system to flash stock recovery over TWRP.
By the way, I don't recommend my way of rooting it, it's less safe, just follow the updated instructions in OP.
Huge thanks to @EpicLPer

Wow, this is excellent. I had TWRP built days ago, I went through hell (long story) finding the kernel code and got help from Mobvoi's CTO. I just couldn't get it to boot to recovery. I tried the supplied TWRP, seemed to basically work except for not being able to mount all the partitions. I tried the one I build and I'm in a bootloop. Power button does nothing, we'll see what happened when it loses it's battery. Oh well, will probably order another one anyway.
Thanks for the recovery. I'll resume testing when I get another working device.

If the watch doesn't turn off even after holding the button for a minute then you've damaged something else than just the recovery. Holding down the button normally triggers all the time no matter what, even if you'd have bricked it.

I really wish I knew what. All I did was flash a bad recovery, pretty sure something was was wrong with the ram disk. All I get is the splash logo for 3 seconds and a brief vibrate.

Great to hear someone that it is working on this! What about Android Wear updates? Did you try if it is possible to install them using TWRP?
Edit 1: Just tried to install twrp but inside "supersu" folder there is only "SuperSU-2.79-wear_systemless.zip", where can I find "TicwatchE_TWRP_keeper.zip"?

I've managed to install it anyway. First check if it is not already installed using command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
If it does not work try this after you are in bootloader:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_TicwatchE_v003.img
fastboot reboot
Then, as suggested by @Piereligio send this command as soon as possible while the watch is booting:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
This should work
However it is interesting that you have a S model. By sharing the build.prop of your device should be possible unlock all watchfaces for E model for instance!

This is the best way i found to install the TWRP recovery:
- Unlock the boot loader
- Reboot, wait until android start again
- Reboot again in boot loader mode
- flash the twrp v003 recovery
- type:
Code:
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
- Flash the twrp keeper zip package
- flash the root zip package (if you want root)

Can you get me the device tree or at least BoardConfig.mk used for this? I have a working watch (still working on recovering the old one) and I think I can get the rest of the partitions working but I would really like to avoid any more mistakes.

Hey, bought my ticwatch e used online.

They dont do anything but i just want to remove them

And yeah the watch also generates a bug report by itself everyday i also want to stop that lol

Maybe it's a specific developer unit. Don't do anything with it yet, we could loom further into this if it is something special.
