[SHARE][RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.0.0.0 + Root for Honor 7i/ShotX

Heres TWRP 3.0.0.0
https://dl.twrp.me/rio/twrp-3.0.0-0-rio.img.html
or
https://mega.nz/#!91ZnAaYA!htGK6PknbEd4twDPCsHQ31ZsmDAdKZ7qP_kFWsfSwC4
Since Huawei G8 is so similar to this phone it works
Remember this is for Honor 7i / ShotX and NOT for the regular Honor 7
Ive flashed it on my ShotX but if you are uncertain, please first try and boot it before you flash it onto your device.
Just type make sure adb developer is activated and you also need to check the setting that allows bootloader unlocking or else you cant flash it. Also remember to move the twrp-3.0.0-0-rio.img file into your adb directory, preferably just use minimal adb which is excellent for this type of job
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.0-0-rio.img
If it boots and everything works then you can reboot in bootloader again
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
and then type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-0-rio.img
to flash the recovery permanently
And if you want root, simply flash this file (superSU.zip)
https://mega.nz/#!F05GXBoI!abpEgAI4WLuu0nraCpEpB5E2rXkIOIlHbepke5SH0cg
Now we just need some tweaked/alternative roms and preferably a nice kernel along with it

ByTheWay: is there any reason for the behaviour that "fastboot boot AnyRecoveryImage.img" responses with a "<remote: command not allowed>" for me?

So basically I flashed this and now my phone bootloops. Any solution guys?

this trwp works fine, but mayby you have the stock recovery for huawei shotx?

Is unlocking bootloader required?

every times you want to change something like this on your Honor 7, you must unlock your bootloader if it was not unlocked until now!!! But be careful!!!
You should use the minimalADB tool too.

When i boot it it boots and reboot fine but now when i flashed i am stuck in it anyone help me ;(

I got it fixed by just flashing the stock recovery instead of full ROM.

[GUIDE] LG G STYLO How to root the T-Mobile 6.0 update

This guide was made before Kingroot was able to root the official update. But thanks to @oskar and @TheDerekHarper on XDA and to @josephwv on Android forums it is now comfirmed that Kingroot will root the official update. But first you must still follow steps #1 through #6 so Kingroot can root your device.
Now before Kingroot was able to root the update I figured out how to root the official update and it is not all to complicated. The following guide will walk you through the root process. But I am not responsible for anything that happens to your devices by using this guide as you are responsible for your device.
What you need:
1. A computer running Linux or Windows with adb and fastboot installed. (I used Ubuntu)
2. If you are using Windows you need all the drivers for your device installed. Linux users will not have to worry about this.
3. A functioning USB cable for your device.
4. Battery charged at least 50% just for safety.
5. The TWRP revovery.img, this is the same TWRP recovery we already have for the LG G Stylo I have just renamed it to recovery.img to make it easier to type the name in while typing fastboot commands.
6. The SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip by Chainfire. (All credit to Chainfire for this awesome zip.)
How to root your device:
1. I suggest you first go to Settings/General/About Phone/Software info and tap on the "Build number" until it says"You are now a developer". Then back out of until you are in Settings/General and go to "Developer options" and turn "Enable OEM unlock" on. This is to allow TWRP recovery to be able to boot. Also turn on "USB debugging" while you are there.
2. Download the SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip to your device. You need to move the zip file from your Downloads folder to somewhere on your external SD card as it will not be deleted from there when you use the "fastboot oem unlock" command in step #6.
3. Download the recovery.img to your computer. If you do not have adb and fastboot setup globally for linux or in your path for windows you need to move the recovery.img to the directory your adb and fastboot is in and open a terminal or command line (depending on your OS) in that directory or cd to that directory. If you do have adb and fastboot globally or in your path you can just open a terminal or command line in the directory you have the recovery.img or cd to the directory you have the recovery.img.
4. Once you have the terminal or command line open run the command "adb devices" to make sure your devices is detected by adb. You may get a toast pop up on your device asking if you to "Allow usb debugging". Except this as this is the RSA key you need to allow your computer to communicate with your device via adb. You should see something like "LGH631dffacad9 device" in your terminal or command line. If you see "unauthorized" instead of "device" you have not excepted the RSA key.
5.Now type the following command in your terminal or command line. Type "adb reboot bootloader". This will reboot your device to fastboot mode. Once in fastboot mode use the "fastboot devices" to make sure your device is recognized by fastboot. You should see something like "dffacad9 fastboot". If you are in Linux and get a error message you may have to use "sudo fastboot devices" for fastboot to work. (If you are using Windows and are having trouble with fastboot recognizing your device you need to install the device drivers. If it still does not work install the drivers again with your device connected to your computer in fastboot mode.)
6. To fully unlock your bootloader you have to use the command "fastboot oem unlock". You have to do this or this root method will not work. But be warned that if you do use this command it will factory reset your device. Plus you will get a line of text saying the bootloader is unlocked on the splash screen when you boot your device.
6-1: If you are wanting to use Kingroot to root your device you can reboot your device now. Open the Kingroot app and let it root your device and then use Flashify, Rashr, or a similar app to flash the recovery. Then boot to recovery and flash the SuperSU.zip in recovery and it will remove Kingroot and have SuperSU installed on your device.
7. Now you can do this two ways if you do not want to keep the stock recovery you can use the command "fastboot flash recovery.img" to install the recovery and then use the command "fastboot reboot recovery" to boot to the TWRP recovery. (If this command gives you issue like it seems to be for many then just use the the following method and then use Flashify or Rashr app to install TWRP after you are done rooting.) If you want to keep the stock recovery you can use the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" to boot to the TWRP recovery.
8. Once you are booted to the TWRP recovery you should make a full backup first so you have a backup to restore to in case things go bad. After you make a backup then select install and then find the SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip and install it. Once it is installed reboot your device to system. If TWRP gives you a warning about the su binaries missing and asks if you want to install thee su binaries before you reboot select no or it will interfere with the rooting process of the SuperSU.zip. When your device reboots it will boot to the LG splash screen and then reboot again. But then it will boot to the OS but it will take a minute. Make sure you let your device reboot all the way to the lockscreen or home screen depending on if you have a lockscreen enabled or not. You should be fully rooted after this, enjoy.

Resserved in case needed later.

Thank you.

ok so i know this is 100% my fault for not reading, but why would you even include step 6? it wipes everything including the supersu.zip. the files i'm pissed about, but i can get over. mostly music plus some ****ty pictures. contacts can text me. but the main thing is i had to restart my phone, get it started up and everything, then put the super su.zip back onto the phone. just a tedious task.

Can I use this guide with my G4 Stylus (H635)?

I've tried multiple versions of the TWRP for the g stylo on adroidforum and none of it flashes with the fastboot flash recovery .....img option. Every single one fails. Please tell me how you flashed the recovery... Also I cant run it through Flashify because my SuperSU says no binary is installed... I'm completely lost at this point

Someone mentioned using the Kingroot app and I gotta admit, I was skepticle at first but after testing. I can confirm it works.
Just go go KingRoot.net, download their apk, install and run the root program. Igll work out of the box after, sadly I couldn't get the above method to work either with super su.

do the fastboot boot recovery.img so it boots up twrp then flash the supersu zip then boot your phone you should be rooted then flash twrp using flashify

I was getting the same error, ( in step 7 don't flash the recovery )
just use "fastboot boot recovery.img" and it will boot to TWRP without installing it
you can then install SU, ( note ) when you exit or re boot from TWRP it will say SU in not installed do you want to install it, I did the first time and it seemed to hose up, so I did everything over and the second time selected no to re install.
once booted I used flashify to install the TWRP img, and I am able to boot to recovery using Quickboot apk
on a side note I have SU installed, I can use root explorer and other apps that ask for SU access, but Titanium backup
doesn't seem to uninstall apps anymore, they seem to re install after a reboot
Hope this helps yall's

I gotta be honest... I'm pretty skeptical to try it. I've read of everyone having either a softbrick boot loop or the root just not staying after reboot. Yours worked for H631 T-mobile 6.0 and stayed? If you confirm T-mobile variant and 6.0 I'll try it. There's a lot of headache with this method for me (not saying it doesn't work). I bricked my phone trying to get the binary files for SU by trying to reroot. But unbricked it with LG Flash Tools and a stock kdz. So I don't want to brick it again twenty minutes later lol

Made a tutorial on how to get the marshmallow update (i.e. rom i've used.)
And then afterwards i downloaded Minimal ADB & Fastboot, OEM Unlocked the device (for safety) and downloaded the Kingroot Apk.
Installed it, and just allowed the program to root. It was pretty simple, haven't had any issues (i've even disabled OEM Unlock from the phone & USB Debugging.)
Hell, even adoptable storage is enabled for my phone too (but that's another tutorial from somewhere else.)
I do plan to make a root video, just so someone could see it and grab their opinion.
To be clear: I'm using a metroPCS LG Stylo. Also, only time the phone had issues was when i factory reset it to get rid of root. (didn't work)
so i had to follow the steps from the above tutorial to reflash the stock rom.

well this did it, the root actually worked.

I got a permanent root from the procedure listed on page one of this thread. The only thing I did differently was, when booted into TWRP and you try to re boot the system you will get the question if you want TWRP to install root. If you do allow TWRP to install root, you wont get root. At this point select the option to just reboot the phone. The LG Logo will appear twice before it fully boots. When the device is fully up, you will have root.

My apologies as I made a typo in the guide. The correct command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" to flash the recovery. I will fix this along with another rework about putting the SusperSU.zip only on your SD card.

I do not know if you can use it or not as I do not have that device. But you can try it bit if your device does not boot to fastboot mode when you issue the adb reboot bootloader command then your device's bootloader is not unlockable and this root method will not work for you. But from the posts in this thread point out that Kingroot now works on the 6.0 update so you can also try Kingroot to see if it willroot your device.

Is there anyway to do this without wiping your data from 'fastboot oem unlock'? My bootloader keeps saying locked in fastboot mode even though I checked Enable OEM Unlock in settings. It won't let me boot the recovery.img because it's locked.

Hmmm looks like maybe fully unlocking the bootloader enables all fastboot commands. You can try downloading and installing Kingroot and root with it as the posts here comfirm it will root the update now. Or just u lock the bootloaderb but your device will be reset if you do.

What if we just enable oem unlock in both the system and the bootloader then use adb to push the recovery, superuser, and busybox to the system. King Root caused too many system instabilities, it had injected itself as a system app and after unrooting and uninstalling after a reboot I was left with a soft brick due to a secure boot error 1003. A stock 5.1.1 kdz and the lg flash tool was able to bring my Stylo back to life.
It could all be done by running a simple batch file bundled with everything we need for our device. Linux would probably be the better option but it could work the same in windows.

my divece is being hard brick. what do i do now?

My friend,this is no hard brick.sometimes this error happens because because your recovery.img file is corrupted.Check that your recovery.img is found in the cmd folder...And use command 'fastboot boot recovery.img' << this one surely will work.Otherwise,please follow my own thread where I faced an identical problem..>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/help/problem-flashing-rom-soft-brick-t3353665 Oh,and calm down, not that serious of a problem,you wont have to go to the dreaded service center.

When you can't even enter to bootloader (or fastboot), that situation is called hard brick. The problem you are facing is due to the wrong recovery version. Try this latest twrp 3.0.2 by sevenmax.
And yah, if "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" doesn't work, then try "fastboot boot recovery.img"

This method alsi not gud. Try this method.
https://boycracked.com/2016/02/12/e...rmware-any-android-devices-via-fastboot-mode/
I did it & saved from hardbrick. Just do whatever files u have. But dont forget ti erase boot. Erase boot then flash boot* this is main step. Then flash twrp and instll any backup or new rom.

Follow these instruction.... main files are in stock firmware file. Recovery alone flash ur own custom recovery of ur choice

Bhai, This method is for soft- bricked device, when you can enter bootloader.
In case of hard brick you can' t even enter in bootloader, and can't run these commands. The link I posted is for hard bricked devices.
And, you don't actually need to go through these complicated steps in case of soft brick.
Just flash any recovery through bootloader and then flash any ROM. You don't need to extract and flash each file separately.

Stuck on installing TWRP

Hello and thanks in advance to everyone,
I am trying to root my moto g4 but I am stuck on installing a recovery. I did unlock the bootloader and when I turn on the phone i am greeted with"this device is unlocked and can't be trusted"
Yet when i try to flash the recovery it states that it failed to install since the package is unsigned:
C:\Users\Jelle\Desktop\Nieuwe map>mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
sending 'recovery' (12496 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.405s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt
OKAY [ 0.344s]
finished. total time: 0.748s
Re-entering my unlock code also does not work as it gives me this message:
C:\Users\Jelle\Desktop\Nieuwe map>fastboot oem unlock NYRTWS*************
...
(bootloader) invalid boot state
OKAY [ -0.000s]
finished. total time: -0.000s
Does someone have any idea on what the issue is, am I missing something?
Thank you in advance!

Twrp is for motog4 plus aka athene. Make sure your device is the same.
Just reboot to recovery after you flash twrp using fast boot. Do not reboot your device to your home screen as your recovery partition will be rewritten with the stock recovery.
Do not worry about the message. It doesn't say that flashing failed. It only gives you a warning that it's not signed. That message is displayed even if you flash the stock recovery using fast boot.

If you're getting a screen with 'no command', that's the stock recovery on your device.
Are you rebooting to the recovery straight after flashing TWRP? Do you have an unlocked bootloader and what version of TWRP are you flashing? What commands are you using to flash?
You may wish to try booting with TWRP first:
1)On a device with an unlocked bootloader, boot to the bootloader screen.
2)Connect your device to your computer via a high quality USB data cable or the original USB cable.
3)Ensure your TWRP image is copied to your ADB folder.
4)Open an ADB terminal. Verify your device is communicating with your computer by typing 'fastboot devices' without quotes. Press Enter. You should get a serial number response.
5)If so, then type 'fastboot boot twrp.img' without quotes. Replace twrp.img with the actual full file name of your TWRP image in your ADB folder including the file extension. For example, if your TWRP image file name is shreps_twrp_3_1_1.img, the full command would be fastboot boot shreps_twrp_3_1_1.img You can type the first few letters of the file name and press Tab on your keyboard to automatically complete the file name if you so wish.
6)Press Enter, and your device should download TWRP and boot to TWRP.

[RESOVLED] OS doesn't boot and TWRP is stuck on a black screen

Hi all, I have a Sony Xperia X Compact which still worked perfectly fine.
Today I tried to install Lineage OS but had trouble making it work properly - see the thread.
I managed once to successfully install TWRP but then it got removed during the formatting. I tried many times to reinstall it but it didn't work:
$fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.7.img Sending 'recovery' (27424 KB)
OKAY [ 0.863s] Writing 'recovery'
OKAY [ 0.340s] Finished. Total time: 1.214s
$ fastboot getvar recovery
recovery:
Finished. Total time: 0.002s

Strange... So instead, I boot to recovery through the fastboot. It always worked, I've done it 10+ times today
fastboot boot twrp-3.7.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But after my last install of Lineage OS, I can't boot anymore to TWRP and get stuck on a black screen. I tried other versions of TWRP and it's the same result.
Now I have
- a buggy Lineage OS which crashes while accepting the Google terms, which means I cannot activate the debugger mode and cannot use adb
- a buggy TWRP which doesn't load

Solution: install the Sony flash tool and flash the original firmware.
