[Q] No access to recovery

Hello,
I plan to install a custom rom, and for that I followed all the tutorials on the web without success.
Using Acer recovery install, whatever the chosen recovery I get the error "recovery verified failed", and flashing the stock 4.03 recovery I have bugdroid lying.
Using AfterOta, it freezes at step 3/5 and Blackthund3r, it stuck stage two..
I have a bootloader and ICS 4.0.3 OTA maj.
If someone has an idea, I'd be grateful
Thanks !

Rooted?
Yes? use AcerRI to install any recovery.
Download thor200240/digetx CWM 1.7.3.zip here
Copy zip to SD card
Reboot to recover.
Install from zip file > Choose file from SD Card
Select the zip and install.
Reboot to recover if u see CWM 1.7.3 ur set.
Full Backup
Save your cpuid (In your CWM folder on your sd card inside the backup files u just made. Should be a text file named uid.txt or cpuid.txt.)
Copy any compatible rom onto your SD card
Wipe data, cache and dalvik
Flash your rom the same way u installed the .zip file.

Thank you for your response.
Yes, I'm rooted and I already tried Acer Recovery Install without success...
I get "recovery verified failed" (in red)...

tried all the recoveries in ARI?
use adb to install the zip then.

I tried all the recovery... And I don't know how to use adb :s can you quickly explain ?

use the platformer tool link below to use adb so u dont need sdk.
Follow instructions on platformer tool download page to set up your adb
open command prompt and navigate to your platformer
cmd commands:
view available directories: dir
change directory: cd (cd desktop (forward directory example) / cd .. (up directory example))
Use this guide to install with adb
cwm: here
platformer: here

Ok, I'll try later because I can't now and I tell you !
Thanks !!

make sure your rooted too, that could be causing the issue with ari..
download root checker from play store its free

I already checked, I'm rooted

Having the same issue.
I will also look into adb tool because I'm in the same boat. I did pretty much the same thing and am also stuck with the same error message and can't access the Recovery mode.

I don't understand.
I put the recovery on sdcard with adb, and next ? How should I install it ?

Follow this guide here
but use the recovery from the zip in earlier post.

Ok well it's simple after adb devices it should list your device as a bunch of numbers and should say recovery next to it, then make sure that the Rom you want is in the folder with all adb stuff and in philz navigate to install zip and click install via sideload and from adb type adb sideload Rom.zip(of course replace Rom with the actual name and don't forget to sideload the kkbaseband.zip)

Please help. Bricked. cant enter download mode after 4.4.2

I flashed Malladus stock 4.4.2 rom on my VS980 but wanted to try AOSP. I was watching tv when I was wiping everything to prepare the AOSP rom flash. I accidentally formatted internal storage and now I cant restore my backup file or flash any other rom i had stored on my phone or go into download mode. I think I really bricked my G2 this time. If anyone knows how to fix this please help me out thank you!

On PhilZ you can use a usb drive to flash your rom... Or if you have a less functional recovery you can just use LGflash to restart from the start.. you are far from bricked dude..

I have TWRP 2.7.0.0. Which is the only screen i can boot into at this point. I do have the LG Flash tool installed on my pc that i have used before to get out of trouble. But since i flashed the 24a bootstack and rom, now i cant get into download mode so the the flash tool does not recognize my phone. is there a different method to go about it using the lf flash tool? There is a file that i should have flashed that allows me to get back my download mode after flashing 24a bootstack, but i never flashed it and now my whole storage is wiped. I appreciate your help.

Android N Root Working(Explained)

There are two methods to root Android N .
Method 1
Flash the Supersu.zip from custom recovery.

[GUIDE] Root Android 12/OOS12 (T-Mobile)

Requires Bootloader to be unlocked (Tutorial for unlocking T-Mobile bootloader)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Download the latest Magisk.zip from github, it will be an apk file. Rename it to a ".zip" file. (link below)
- Download attached recovery.img and boot into it using fastboot on a PC. (command below)
- Once booted into recovery choose "Apply Update" then "Apply from ADB"
- In adb on your PC, push the magisk.zip with the command "adb sideload Magisk-vXXX.zip" Make sure the magisk zip file is in your fastboot folder if you don't have fastboot system-wide.
- It will give signature verification error on your phone, choose "INSTALL ANYWAY"
- Reboot to system and install the Magisk Manager app. Choose install at the top, select direct install, and allow the app to install and reboot.
To flash recovery
Code:
fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
DOWNLOADS
- Latest Magisk
- Recovery.img

Awesome easy as can be, worked great. Thank you!

For others when installing oos update; disable magical modules, install oos update, before restarting install Magisk to both slots using the app, reboot, enable modules if any.

Are you sideloading the zip, or maybe when you downloaded the magisk zip, your Mac automatically unzipped it so you now have a directory.
I haven't used this root method, but I use Macs once in a while, and that's one of my annoyances with one of the Macs I use.

You have to just make sure you have the magisk zip file instead of an unzipped version. Next time I'm working on a mac, I can play around to see if I can replicate your problem.

I finally had some time to try this out on a Mac and everything worked out for me. I couldn't get the same error message you were getting. I did use Magisk v22 though. The only thing you'll have to do is rename the .apk to .zip.

Works on OnePlus 8 India.
Since the recovery link in OP is deleted, I extracted the latest one myself.
Here's the recovery from crDroidAndroid-11.0-20210517-instantnoodle-v7.6

This didn't work for me, I got this error after running sideload. Any idea how to resolve this?
"E: Failed to find update binary META-INF /com/google/android/update-binary"
