Cannot access recovery

I really hope someone can help me out. I think I bricked my phone.
I tried to recover my phone back to stock with stock recovery so I can send it in for repair. When I installed 2.3.4 OTA update through zip, I accidentally clicked yes for updating 2.3.6. I didn't know, went to washroom and my phone won't boot. I thought no worries I'll install the zip again. Going into recovery, there's an android picture with an exclamation mark. I can't boot into phone and cannot load recovery. Someone please help >_<

download CWM and try to flash it through fastboot, and use that to flash a new img. im assuming you've done this before, having a custom recovery before now. if not, make sure you have fastboot setup, and if you don't go look through a rooting guide how to set it up then once you have it set up, move the new recovery you downloaded to the same folder as fastboot, then type
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery
of course replace the name_of_recovery with the exact filename of the recovery you downloaded. you can get the ClockworkMod recovery I think at www.clockworkmod.com
then boot into the new recovery and go to Mounts and Storage and Mount USB, and take the update.zip that you have and load it onto your SD Card, then go into the recovery and do as you would to flash the zip

Problem is, I don't think usb debugged was enabled. I tried to lock bootloader so I can just take it back to my carrier and say phone is screwed up, but when I tried, it said device not found.
The only way I think is using odin.

[Q] note 3 (n9005) bricked?

I just lately one day decided to update TWRP recovery. I downloaded img file and flashed it at the old TWRP. I rebooted the phone but just blue recovery boot text flashed quickly and it went to the Odin mode and there is red text: could not do normal boot. :crying:
So if I try normal boot it does that above. If I press recovery It does the same. I can still access Odin mode.
Is my device soft bricked or hard bricked? How can I get it work/unbrick it?
Lots of questions... I am pretty noob with these root/moding things, I hope someone could help me.

You only have to follow the steps posted in TWRP page:
1. TWRP Install (Requires TWRP 2.8.4 or higher already installed):
Download the latest TWRP image file (.img) from the download link and boot TWRP. Go to install and find and select the Images... button. Browse to the image that you downloaded and select it. Choose recovery and swipe to flash.
2. Odin Install Method (No Root Required):
You will need to download and install Odin on your PC. Once you have Odin installed, download the proper .tar file for your device from the download link above. Power off your device. Turn on your device using the proper key combo to get into "download mode" and attach the device to your computer via a USB cable. Use the PDA/AP tab or button to browse to and select the tar file that you downloaded and flash the device.
SOLUTION: Reflash TWRP via 2nd step.

Hi! All the files you need is here http://www.mediafire.com/download/qgc3i88dvlmmcl8/ROOT+HUAWEI+P8.rar
It has cwm recovery and stock recovery. Just open the .bat file and plug your phone to your pc.
It will pass cwm recovery, re-root your device, and at the end it will pass automatically the stock recovery for not to lose updates.
*No need to open by yourself command propf etc
I had problem with twrp recovery too, my phone stucked there. So i found this way

[zenfone z00ed] can't load invalid boot image

Hello, i have a problem with this device zenfone z00ed. When i turn on i saw the procedure of upgrade, but stuck ad 24%. So i try to go to recovery mode but not work, only in fastboot. I try to push recovery image or boot but i get error (seems is not signed). However i have a idea (maybe bad idea) i reset all with fastboot -w.
After it i try to turn on, but i have bootloop with logo asus. So i found the right recovery image, and i go to recovery for push via adb the file http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Ze...user.zip?_ga=1.73637138.1491728547.1480409858
But not work , so i copy the file into the microsd and the phone installed the firmware , after it i get the error : can't load invalid boot image
What can i do?

Flash the .43 recovery image then go to stock recovery and try to update from SD card the .44 version from your link.
And make sure your file isn't corrupted.

Thanks for reply. Well i try as you tell me. I used another microSD. So i downloaded the .43 on the web site. Put into the microSD and into the phone. Hard reset and installed the new update file. Reboot. ... Same problem. Hard reset. Same problem. I used another more old update zip from the website. Same problem. Maybe i Need to flash another file? Is strange that problem. The boot-loader isn unlock (however)

How did yout flash the recovery and boot image?

Recovery im sure..like fastboot flash recovery recovery.img...
However.. i follow another istruction to fastboot with twrp (not flash) so i unlocked the boot-loader. After if the phone reboot and automatically works. For now.

Atleast you can use your phone now

Use adb sideload via asus recovery

I know this is old, but I tried the same today.
You just have to press the blue button on right bottom.
Also make sure that the update.zip in root has no capital letters. I used capital U in update.zip name. And it didn't recognize it.
Here's a video, where I saw the translation:
