No recovery?? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
So about an hour ago I updated from Resurrection Remix 5.0.2 to the new 5.1.1. I updated it through TWRP recovery, something wrong happened, so I had to factory reset. I tried to, using the button method but instead of resetting the phone just went into recovery. I wiped everything except internal storage, installed the ROM and everything was fine again.
Except for the recovery itself.
Apparently I have stock recovery now that I can't access and have lost TWRP. Tried flashing a new recovery through Flashify app, no luck. Still unaccessible just black screen when rebooting. I just don't know what to do. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Problem with installing TWRP

My phone came with version 66.77.... (MIUI 6) from the reseller.
I have installed TWRP, rooted the device using adb and then flashed 5.9.24. So far so good.
After some time i decided to try AOSP ROM. I made a backup in TWRP and then flashed AOSP using TWRP. No problems so far (cleared cache, dalvik etc)
Then I wanted to revert back to 5.9.24. I cleared cache dalvik etc, and then I cannot remember anymore if i have reflashed 5.9.24 or restored the backup made previously from TWRP, the thing I wasn't able to boot into recovery anymore. The phone was stuck on the teamwin logo if booted into recovery but normal boot was working fine.
Then i reflashed twrp using adb.
After doing that, my phone was still stuck on the teamwin logo when booting into recovery, but with normal booting i was getting infinite boot loops at Mi logo screen.
After several ours of tries, i was able to solve the normal booting problem by flashing the stock recovery (so the phone is now back on the 5.9.24 - and working fine) but when I try to flash twrp using adb the same symptoms as before:
- Recovery boot - stuck on teamwin logo screen
- Normal boot - boot loops
I already tried to flash via Updater app, Flashify and Windroid nothing worked.
Can anyone help me to get this custom recovery working, please?
Thanks

i saw the request of the message but i am not using a custom recovery on my phone,i use a custom dev rom made by miui france.
i think some china dev rom comes rooted by default with custom installer updater and gapps like mine.
i think twrp is not fully compatible with this device yet.
Have you try with sp flash tool method ?

I just installed TWRP for the first time ever. I used the Flashify App from the Play Store, installed it and gave it root permissions and just selected the TWRP image on the phones internal store. Seemed to work just fine and did not have to plug my phone into a computer

Broken TWRP / CWM recoveries?

Hello all, I have an issue with recovery on my i9505 which hopefully someone can assist with?
I'm using the excellent Optimised CM12.1 and had TWRP 2.8.7.2 (f2fs) as my recovery all working fine. I've recently flashed the newest 2015-11-1 ROM over the top (clear cache and dalvik, but not data wipe) and all seemed great.
However, I went to 'reboot to recovery' in order to install exposed and got stuck on the teamwin splash screen of recovery. Every time I tried to power off it would bootloop into the same splash screen!
Using Odin I was able to flash a new recovery (TWRP 2.8.6.0) and reboot the phone as normal. All worked fine until I tried recovery again and found the same issue!
I've now got CWM (6.0.4.7) flashed to see if that would help but nothing is mounted when using that and so I cannot get to the zip files! When attempting to mount within CWM it errors and cannot mount.
I'm open to any suggestions and would like to learn why this is occurring. Let me know if there's any logs or files I can post that would help.
Many thanks in advance!

Do not use CWM. It's outdated and not compatible with Lollipop.
You could try flashing a stock rom with .pit and re-partition. After that flash TWRP again.

Thanks for the advice. I don't like CWM myself.. just tried it as an attempt to get TWRP flashed back properly!
I will go the stock re-flash route as a last resort. I'm sure it will fix the issue but is a little drastic.
What caused this? - is it something to do with the F2FS filesystem? TWRP recovery was working fine in order for me to flash the updated CM12.1 (2015-11-1).

Nexus 4 only boots to fastboot/download mode, otherwise stuck in bootloop. Need help.

I was running cm12.1 a while ago, and updated to cm13. It broke one of my apps that i used on a regular basis at the time, so i tried downgrading back to cm12.1. The OS rebooted into twrp, but nothing happened. I rebooted but it wouldn't let me out of twrp/fastboot/download mode.I tried wiping the data and re flashing cm12.1, nothing. same issue. I downloaded a different custom recovery (a version of clockwork mod) but i believe it was in the wrong format and when i tried to overwrite my recovery with this other one in twrp, my phone stopped booting into recovery at all, and only download mode or fastboot, besides bootlooping when plugged in and not holding any volume buttons or power. The nexus 4 itself IS unlocked and rooted, and was working fine before this happened. I don't know what to do, and i hope someone can help me.

Hi. Can you please provide a link for the stock Rom? Did you copy it to your phone by sideload? Will it work on CM Recovery with unlocked bootloader? Mine always boot to CM recovery everytime I power on my phone.
Thank you!

TWRP not booting system

I tried to factory reset a custom ROM, got sent to TWRP then I can't reboot to system from there. Tried a clean install but to no avail. I've looked around on the internet and I think I have to reinstall stock ROM and then reinstall custom recovery and ROM, except if I were to install the stock ROM once again (with sp tools) I need my phone to be turned off, not in recovery mode. So how exactly should I proceed now?
EDIT: Managed to get rid of the TWRP bootloop by restoring from a stock nandroid I've found on the forums, coupled with flashing a stock recovery image using TWRP. Reunlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP all over again and then flashed custom ROM and Gapps. Everything running fine now.
Mods feel free to delete this post since it's solved itself, or leave it in case anyone needed help concerning the same issue, up to you.
