Hi everyone,
Can anyone help me find the stock recovery for the US997 so that I can flash it using ADB? It's been a while and I am on 15a, and trying to update my phone. TWRP is not allowing me to update my phone because it keeps asking for the encryption password and failing to decrypt with the correct password.
I can't seem find find it with google, it's either a full stock rom, or some recovery tools. I just want the stock recovery image.
Thanks,
Nevermind, you just run
Code:
fastboot flash boot stockboot.img to get stock recovery.
and you get stock recovery from the boot image.

Hi
Please help! I unlocked the bootloader by using
fastboot unlock oem
after that I forgot to reboot and installed
fastboot flash recovery twrp.name.file
now I'm stocked at bootup and twrp is asking for password.
How can I fix this?
Could I flash the stock boot.img again?
ROM is stock OTA 4.4.2.
I know about flashing a factory image. I would like to find a way to save my data first, if possible.
Many thanks for your help!!!!!!!

Wipe cache from twrp, this is happened to me too But for the password i don't know...maybe reflash twrp, boot.img is the kernel so in my opinion flashing it wouldn't help you
Did you flash straight from 4.2.2 to after installing twrp? I did the same thing. I had to flash back to stock 4.2.2, install twrp, connect the phone to my computer, choose accept at RSA message, and fastboot flash to 4.4.2.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I used the WonderHowTo site incorrectly to flash a nexus 5 version of twrp unto my nexus 4.
My device at this point booted to a blank screen. It could still boot the boot loader at this point.
To "fix" this I found the correct version of twrp for my device and proceeded to flash that unto my device.
This has appeared to work since I can access twrp on my device but it is only thing I can access on the phone. When I attempt to boot to system through twrp I am sent back into twrp.
I have attempted to use the wugfresh root tool kit to unroot and return to stock using both soft bricked and phone is still working normally options with no success.
It can still boot to the boot loader currently.
I have logs from the toolkit if these can shed more light on my issue.
Is there anyway I can return my device to stock? Thanks for any response

Seems like you flashed TWRP to /boot. Easy fix is to download your ROM zip. Extract the boot.img and "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Then flash TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
The locations and filenames of the files may vary. But hopefully you get the idea.

I flashed a boot image for mako_KTU84P and flashed recovery again with twrp but I'm still system booting into twrp.
My bootloader version is MAKOZ30f if that is any help
I probably flashed the incorrect boot image. Could you point me in the direction of reliable ROM zip's if that is the case.

Okay adb push a cyanogenmod zip from here and flash it in recovery. It should automatically install a working boot image. You should also flash the latest bootloader in the factory image with "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img" if you're using an outdated bootloader.
used the advice
I pushed the zip file using cmd and it appears to have been successful since I was given the summary of data transferred and how long it took once the process was finished.
I can't find the zip file in twrp to attempt to flash it.. Is there any reason the file name would change inside the device once it has been pushed?
Is there a way to flash the zip in question without pushing it unto the device?
Hi guys,
I'm just finalising restoring an A2017 (China) to stock for warranty exchange.
I have gone back to stock OS, locked bootloader but I still have the TWRP recovery.
I believe all I need to do is flash a stock recovery.img though TWRP and voila I should be finished, but I can't find a download link that definitely points me to what I should use.
Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
EDIT - Actually wait a minute can I just install full A2017 factory OTA update through MiFavor stock OS which I believe contains recovery, does that mean that everything goes back to stock (including recovery)?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/axon-7-chinese-stock-roms-t3436817
EDIT2 - When I try to install the A2017 B13 update.zip through MiFavor it says update failed. Should I install it through TWRP?
EDIT3 - Refused to update the whole image (update.zip) through MiFavor within the ZTE OS. I flashed the default recovery.img through fastboot, then I used the MiFavor recovery (not in OS) to manually flash the full image.
Anyway, got it to stock!
Where did you got the recovery.img?

In the link from my post above. Download the original stock ROM you want, unzip, one of the files is the recovery.img. FYI I had A2017 B11, installed B13 recovery.img and it worked fine.
I tried to flash recovery.img but it says: FAILED (remote: Partition flashing is not allowed)
What do I do? I'm on B13 stock with locked bootloader. I want to get rid of TWRP and back to stock recovery so I can get OTA updates again.

The first step in flashing anything is to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP recovery, root, custom ROM etc. The inverse is the same. You are trying to flash an image to the recovery partition with a locked bootloader, which isn't going to work. I'd suspect you need to unlock your bootloader again, flash the stock recovery from the B13 stock image, and re-lock the bootloader. I am fairly new to the Axon 7 but I would consider yourself lucky if your bootloader is in fact locked. Typically locking the bootloader with anything but stock recovery is messy...

You usually end up with a DFU brick, sometimes only with fastboot. Very messy
There are flashable recovery zips for the A2017G, maybe @tron1 can make you one?
Hi everybody
My Zenfone Selfie after a normal update (never modified) is in bootloop.
So I installed adb and fastboot and I flashed the twrp.
Then I tried in every way to flash a rom. I've tried both with official firmware and with various versions of cyanogenmod. Through fastboot and via adb sideload.
Even if seems to work, when I reboot I get the bootloop problem again.
As far as I can understand the problem it’s that I have the bootloader still locked. The official apk solution I guees it’s not applicable in my case. By fastboot oem unlock i get an error message (probably why i can not enable usb debug).
Do you know of other ways to unlock the bootloader or in general to flick my phone?
Thanks to everyone for the help
Here is a link for selfie's boot, recovery and system images for fastboot flashing

You can't unlocked bootloader on fastboot. I hope you can restore your device.

i tried evrything from flashing stock image , recovery partition , boot image . but nothing works. same i dont have unlocked bootloader. i am stuck at just rebooting phone. please help
I unintentionally skip the "format data" link and the all step, so the code unlock the bootloader but I cant flash the recovery it says "[BOOTLOADER] image not signed or damaged", the phone works but I cant flash anything, any ideas?
What device do you have, what (stock) firmware do you have on the device and what firmware are you trying to flash?
Hello is a stock Moto G5 Plus with 7.0 android and I am trying to flash the Vanche's Modified TWRP or the 3.1.2 version but I keep getting the same message "[BOOTLOADER] image not signed or damaged", is like if the BL relock itself.
I think that's a standard warning from the bootloader - TWRP is not signed software, which fastboot expects. However, as your bootloader is unlocked, it'll allow the flashing of TWRP, just with the warning message alerting you to the fact you're not flashing Motorola firmware via fastboot.
1)Do you see [OKAY] appear when you flash the TWRP?
2)After flashing TWRP, do you boot to recovery to fix TWRP? Easiest way is after flashing, on your device (if still in the device bootloader), use the volume keys to select 'Recovery' and press Power to confirm.
The instructions here suggest you need to boot to recovery after flashing to fix TWRP as the recovery, else the stock recovery may overwrite TWRP. https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/how-to-root-moto-g5-plus-t3579659 or https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/how-to/how-to-how-to-supersu-moto-g5-plus-t3587684
ok thanks, I will try that, so skipping the "format data" thing has nothing to do with it?
I'm not sure - though you'd have to unlock your bootloader so your data would be wiped anyway as part of the unlock, and that you'll have to decrypt your data. Perhaps someone with more experience in flashing on G5 plus devices can comment.
