[Q] Instaling Recovery

I have a rooted D802 and I wanted to install recovery. I'd surf and search and tried a few solutions but without success. Everytime It stuck on boot and black screen with some error message about bootloader. I've tried TWRP and Philz, nothing. I have KK D80220B_00 (A6HUBK).
How can I install custom recovery?

This tool downgrade KK bootloader and install patched kernel because KK bootloader can't be lokifiable and KK kernel can't boot on JB bootloader. And that's why you couldn't install a recovery.

Had the same pb. Ended up using autorec app.
I will advise to read the thread first. Some people experienced issue while doing it. I didn't, what I did is I downloaded paranoid android and flashed as soon as I used the app.
I have a D803 but it should be similar.

Recovery will not boot, wrong recovery flashed?

The phone is/was a stock VS9803AA. I finally got root to work with using the One Click Root. Next I was working on installing TWRP. I flashed the TWRP image 2.8.5 from the link on this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670. After doing that, when I try to reboot into recovery, a grey screen with a Critical Error is displayed. DemiGod Crash Handler : Critical Error! Press any key to choose Dload Mode or Reboot. Rebooting the phone lets it boot up normally, but at higher brightness levels the edges of the screen sort of flash, like a bad refresh rate on a monitor. I flashed the TWRP image using dd. Any ideas on how to fix it? I am trying to get TWRP on there so I can flash CM 12.1

Installed Flashify and used that to flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 and it has the same problem. I don't think the issue is the TWRP version used, must be something else?

have a look at skr tools and see if it has an option.for your problem.. and the most easiest thing would be to go back to stock rom.. and start from there

Did you have a nandroid backup? If so, you can boot to twrp and restore. Or just go back to stock firmware.

otas doesn't work with custom recovery installed, yes or yes you need sotck recovery, maybe you try with firmware finder.

Here is the stock recovery. Flash this, then U will be able to update. After that U can re-flash TWRP

sorry, I was inactive for a while. Yes, it worked, I flashed with success and updated but when I tried to reflash twrp the terminal say "flash failed" "permission denied" or something. I tried to relock and unlock bootloader but nothing...

Hi everyone, recently I downloaded the latest update from huawei system updater and then I wanted to flash it with flashfire but when it restarts it says "check_write_data_to_partition,write data error" and "update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update package from zip failed" then it reboot normaly without system changes, what can I do?
edit:
in the head of the log it says olso:
"mountencrypt: failed to mount /data: success"
It's pretty ambiguous...

With twrp u can't install update u need stock recovery. Try to boot in erecovery and press download last recovery and then reboot in recovery.

I used my pc with "fastboot".
I don't think is possible to flash stock recovery from a custom recovery

Couldn't update Installation problem with august update

So this week i hadn't time enough to install the august update since my phone is rooted so i decided to do it now. What i did before trying to download the update :
1.Deleted all magisk modules that i had then rebooted
2.Unistalled magisk using restore image then rebooted
3.Went to sys update downloaded and it says installation failed
What do to? I'm not rooted now and i don't have twrp installed.
PS. don't want to install it via fastboot/miflash

Follow this guide in future. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips
To fix your problem now, find a stock boot image for your update version you are currently on and flash it.

If you don't want to use Miflash (Why ?) you can boot temporary TWRP and flash .zip here:

It doesn't matter. You'll have to reinstall Magisk (if you want to).
