I'm trying to flash my new Mate 8 with TWRP but I can't.
I've unlocked bootloader, flash twrp recovery with fastboot. Everything seems to be fine:
Code:
$ fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target reported max download size of 471859200 bytes
sending 'recovery' (31356 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.672s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.508s]
finished. total time: 1.185s
But for every time I've tried Huawei eRecovery runs instead of TWRP.
After you flash the twrp recovery, turn off the phone then boot into recovery by holding both volume up and power. This might prevent mate 8 to rewrite the stock recovery. If this works the next time you boot into recovery it will be twrp.
make sure also the phone is not plugged to your computer so you can enter twrp
Both your ways didn't work for me. After restart there is still Huaweii recovery. I've managed only to run TWRP. After flashing with
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I didn't restart by
Code:
fastboot reboot
but unplug from computer, and power off by holding power button. After restart I boot phone into recovery by holding both volume up and power. TWRP runs and wants a password from me. I've tried password which I use to unlock phone, but that doesn't work. After restart there is still stock recovery.
Flash new twrp image after u install via twrp nougat and do not restart , reboot to twrp first ! Hpebthat helps

Hi all,
I understand there is loads of this stuff online but found nothing related to Z1, please bear with me. So, after successfully installing TWRP my Z1 is always loading the cm recovery.
I'm with CM 12.1 yog4pap25i, update CM recovery is off.
After flashing TWRP is there specific actions I need to do? I've always rebooted into recovery with fastboot or the advanced reboot in the phone, but I'm always having CM recovery installed.
Thanks for your help

You unlocked bootloader and checked oem unlock im sure.
But which command did you use to flash the twrp?
Output should be like this:
C:\Users\anwender\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 1610612736 bytes
sending 'recovery' (8686 KB)...
OKAY
Please post your output
Hi @strongst, I'm on mobile now but yes, the response is ok. Also I've checked what you suggested. The problem is I think I did everything well, but somehow I'm not rebooting correctly
after that command type fastboot boot twrp.img (twrp is the name of recovery img) and it will booted into recovery

I would say, after installing twrp, directly type fastboot reboot recovery and boot to recovery immediately.
Booting into system will replace the stock recovery

Hi, this is the message received after flashing:
PS C:\platform-tools> fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 1610612736 bytes
sending 'recovery' (9578 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.340s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.138s]
finished. total time: 0.594s
then I digit this
PS C:\platform-tools> fastboot reboot recovery
< waiting for device >
if i switch off it is booting automaticaly into CM12. If I exit the shell and try power + volume down it opens a plain recovery, neither the CM revocery nor the twrp. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?
edit: also tried this
PS C:\platform-tools> adb devices
List of devices attached
cb02ec72 device
PS C:\platform-tools> adb reboot bootloader
PS C:\platform-tools> fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash recovery recovery.img

PS C:\platform-tools> fastboot boot recovery.img

looks like the fastboot is gone after flashing
hi everyone, sorry for the newbie question above. Eventually I've managed to install TWRP, I just missed the right key combination to reboot.
Thanks
Hey there,
So yesturday I wiped/factory reset my phone and installed a new ROM, but when I flashed the ROM zip file through the TWRP recovery menu, I forgot to flash TWRP ^^'...
So right after the flash, I went to FASTBOOT mode and tried to boot into twrp image to, then, flash the twrp's zip installer :
Code:
MacBook-Pro:Downloads User$ fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-tissot.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.891s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.627s]
finished. total time: 1.518s
But when I do so, my phone reboot just normally. No Twrp.
The OEM is unlocked and the ROM is stock (flashed with the official xiaomi images).
newbie to a oneplus 2. I acquired this phone locked and with OOS 3.61. been doing some searches but apparantly not enough and not getting very far.
Actions performed so far
set oem unlocking in dev-options to enabled.
rebooted to fastboot
"fastboot oem unlock" was succesful and rebooted and completed setup
rebooted to fastboot
from fastboot installed twrp "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (recovery.img being twrp-3.2.1-0-oneplus2.img)
results:
C:\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (22180 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.624s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.310s]
finished. total time: 1.934s
:end results
then boot directely to twrp with "fastboot boot recovery.img"
performed nandroid backup.
rebooted device and tried booting to recovery but still has oem recovery.
any ideas? would like twrp native not via fastboot only.
thanks in advance.
Update solved:
booted twrp from .img file and installed su.zip and installed twrp.apk and used the app to install twrp. works now. not sure why it was saying it was working from from fastboot and writing but hope this helps someone else.
TWRP 3.2.1 doesn't work properly yet on the OnePlus 2 for some reason. I can assume that you wanted root so I can give you 2 options:
1) If you want to stay on stock OxygenOS 3.6.1 or a custom rom Nougat or lower, then flash TWRP 3.1.1
2) If you want to have an Oreo rom, then you have to get your hands on the unofficial TWRP from anupritaisno1. The download link for that on his forum doesn't work so if you want, I can link my Google Drive.
This is my first time trying to root my android and I am having the same problem with my oneplus 2 3.6.1 OOS. I have successfully unlocked oem but can't seem to flash twrp.
I have downloaded twrp 3.2.1 on my desktop and renamed it to "recovery".
I used the same command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" but it just says "error: cannot open 'recovery.img' "
Can you please tell me how you managed to install twrp and root your android?
you need to downgrade the OOS to ver 3.002 or 3.1, then you re-unlock the bootloader then flash twrp recovery.
Finally flash your phone with root of your liking.

Hi, i'm trying to root my redmi note 7 so first i need to boot in twrp in order to root my phone.
My problem is that i can't enter twrp:
I've unlocked bootloader and installed adb + enabled usb debugging. Then, i enter fastboot (adb reboot bootloader), i flash the recovery with twrp img, which works fine
C:\Users\Ailiganon\Desktop\redmi note 7 root tool\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Sending 'recovery' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.410s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.452s]
Finished. Total time: 1.928s
But then, when i want to enter twrp using VolumeUp+Power button, it simply boots the phone normally !!!
I've also tried using this command when in fastboot: fastboot boot twrp.img but it does nothing although in CMD, it shows the command worked fine:
C:\Users\Ailiganon\Desktop\redmi note 7 root tool\platform-tools>fastboot boot twrp.img
Sending 'boot.img' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.392s]
Booting OKAY [ 0.133s]
Finished. Total time: 1.584s
I can access recovery mode when i turn off my phone and simply use VolumeUp+Power button (not from fastboot) but since Xiaomi overwrites the recovery mode everytime it reboots, it just enters the regular redmi recovery menu and not twrp. Idk what to do else
I've used the twrp img from this video: www youtube com watch?v=r3R9kiBIx34 (i can't post url >.<) and i've tried another one on another website, but i think it was the same one since they had the same size.
Hope someone can help me ty

I've unpacked orangefox, flash recovery.img in fastboot mode, and then i held the recovery buttons, but yet again, it just boots the phone and it's even worse cause it prompts me a password to access android that i dont fkin know. So i've had to reset the phone using "fastboot format userdata" command. I did it twice cause the first time i had a schema to unlock the phone so i've put a password instead but the second time it prompted me the password, i've put the password i've chosen to unlock the phone but it said "wrong password". So i don't know what password they ask, and i dont know why it appears only after flashing orange fox....
I've also tried with the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" with the same result as earlier
C:\Users\Ailiganon\Desktop\redmi note 7 root tool\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Sending 'recovery' (30488 KB) OKAY [ 0.659s]

What orangenfox said by cancel and format data?
Hello, I tried to upgrade to official LOS, so I upgraded firmware using twrp and then I installed new LOS 18.1, however I didn't make any partition clean, so I stuck with bootloop can't boot into lineage os.
I can't boot into TWRP too, it seems to freeze on TWRP splash screen.
I tried to flash another recovery using fastboot. I boot successfully into fastboot, however when I enter flash command from my PC it freezes, when I ran fastboot flash with verbose, I got:
Code:
fastboot: verbose: target didn't report max-download-size
Have you idea what should I do?
I'd mention that before my TWRP sideload worked only after `adb reboot sideload` and I couldn't sideload package using TWRP gui "adb sideload".
Update: I tried connect to different usb port and I got:
Code:
$ sudo ./platform-tools_r29.0.1-linux/platform-tools/fastboot flash recovery --verbose asus/lineage-18.1-20210518-recovery-X00TD.img
fastboot: verbose: target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
Sending 'recovery' (21157 KB)
and then phone freezed (I still have twrp splash screen)
Update 2: I discovered, I can run `adb shell` command in the twrp splash screen (however I can't i.e. run wipe command)
Finally erase cache and userdata worked but I still have bootloop. TWRP GUI works however I have problem with Mount
Now I can flash TWRP or lineage os recovery, I tried TWRP Kud however still error on wipe same AS in attarched screen.
