Guys I am unable to root CM12S because none of custom recoveries are booting.
Initially I tried Doomlord's hotboot recovery flash method. I have tried twrp 2.8.6.0 , it enters into grey screen. Cwm and Philz recovery enters into black screen.
fastboot -i 0x1ebf boot recovery-yu.img
Secondly I tried actually flashing the recovery and the result was the same.
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash recovery recovery-yu.img
So how do we root CM12S....? If anyone has managed rooting do share your method.
Thanks in advance..!
[SOLVED] : Used 64 bit twrp recovery meant for lollipop from this thread HERE

Yes after update there is some problem in installing recovery and rooting.
So after unlocking the bootloader do the following steps
1. Download superuser. zip and place it in your external sd-card
2. Now flash the recovery.img using fastboot
3. Now boot into recovery using "vol up+vol down+power"
4. Flash the superuser. zip
*note: please don't do normal reboot after flashing recovery because it will write the stock recovery again into recovery partition.

Enable developer mode & enter developer menu
Go to -> update CM recovery.
That was ticked by default, untick it and then flash custom recovery.
My relative's A500 has TWRP 2.1.3 running (extremely old version) and I'm trying to replace it with CWM 6.0.4.5. I did the following in fastboot
fastboot erase secboot
fastboot flash secboot recovery.img
But when I boot into recovery it's still TWRP . What am I doing wrong? The tablet is running Skrilax_CZ V8 bootloader, I want to update that to V9 and the use CWM to be safe since that's what's recommended in the thread. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Figured it out, have to boot into second boot :silly: . Mods can close this thread
I am using Windroid tool kit as OP2 is stuck at the boot logo. Phone is in the fastboot mode but when I use the tool to flash the stock recovery nothing happens on the screen .
Any other ideas to get this resolved ??
Does fastboot still work?
Download oldest current version of TWRP, 2.8.7.0 i think
Change to twrp.img
run commands
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
---wait for success
fastboot boot twrp.img
--boot into twrp
reflash rom
this did it for me.
I was on cm-13 nightly builds and had error "asus_trustzone==1".So I had to go back to stock rom,I tried to flash back2stock.zip and sideload but failed. So I flashed Asus pre-rooted rom using cmd ie....
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
From then bootloader oem commands are not working, twrp is not re-booting into twrp and fastboot mode and I'am not able to flash any custom rom .
Please Help!!!

then I flashed pre rooted rom.
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot oem reboot-recovery was not working.
From then recovery and bootloader was not booting
I had cm 13 Complete Nandroid Backup
So i restored the twrp backup
Now still previous cm 13 rom ,reboot recovery,reboot bootloader,were not working.
But Power+Volumeup ,and Power+Volumedown were working.
So i am not able to flash any rom files.

Where is the problem ?????
All system,recovery,boot partitions had backup so they Dont has problem
Is the Bootloader Patitions disturbed ?????

u r saying that bootloader and recovery not booting, and then saying xposed and super su is getting flashed, how's it possible without recovery
I found the answer
So to solve this I was trying different ways
First open recovery
In the recovery
I found that the system was not mounted
When we use custom ROMs they are not installed in the system folder so the customs ROMs system will not be mounted
So As I was using a stock ROM system should be mounted So I mounted system and flashed resserection remix 5.8 N
I successfully booted inresserection remix 5.8N
