Hey everyone,
I was running through the process of installing LOS 15.1 official when I hit a snag. I unlocked the bootloader, installed the Universal O bootloader, and was in the process of updating my version of TWRP. After flashing the image to recovery, I noticed that the TWRP version hadn't updated to the new one. I tried rebooting and that's when the problem started. Now, when I hit power + volume up, I get the ZTE powered by android screen, then 3 flashes of the notification light, and then it powers off. If I hit the power button, it sits on that same ZTE splash screen for what seems like indefinitely. I can't figure out how to get back into TWRP.
Any help is greatly appreciated
You can try flashing twrp via the twrp app
Hey!
Try to reboot the phone, press volume button to get the selection menu and reboot to fastboot.
connect the phone to your PC and using the a7toolkit flash the recovery again.
I think I did exactly the same thing as you and I fixed it this way

I assume you are coming from stock because you're unlocking your bootloader. I have a question about this process, did you install an older twrp first before flashing the O bootloader?

When I connect my phone to my computer, none of the toolkits I've tried can see it. It comes up as "Handset Diagnostic Interface (DFU) (Com4)". When I attempt to enter EDL mode with volume +, volume -, and power I don't get a flashing LED, just a solid one. As near as I can tell, this means my phone is hardbricked. I've got an EDL cable on order to hopefully fix this, but it's going to take almost a month to get here :crying:

Yes, the toolkit I used (Axon7RootToolV4) first unlocked the bootloader and then had a step to flash TWRP. When I was attempting to update TWRP, per the LOS instructions, it wasn't updating like it has in the past on other phones. I now know that restarting was the worst thing to do at that point. If the version of TWRP doesn't also match the bootstack and ROM, you're going to have a bad day if you restart.

Hi, I see a lot of posts everywhere, here and on reddit talking about how the latest PA wipes TWRP and root. I've never flashed a rom that did that. I'm not a newbie and would have been able to fix it, but my USB port is broken. I've been charging via the magnetic port. I don't like that people aren't being taken seriously with this request because in most cases, sure you could use flashboot, but in my case I'm locked out of my device.
I would use something like Rashr, but I don't have root. The only way I can think of to get root is to use one of those sketchy apps like KingoRoot and then install Rashr but I have a feeling that would probably brick my device and since it's "usable" (but I can't get into recovery or root it) I should probably cut my losses and sell it.
I think this release should be pulled if it's causing this many problems. If the release is updated with a working TWRP, would I be able to fix it through the PA updater, or is that only system files and no recovery?
We haven't shipped with root in a LOOOOONG time.
I've never seen a ROM flash remove recovery. The ROM itself has nothing to do with recovery, and doesn't actively remove it.
I tried Paranoid Android on my Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact, I liked it a lot, but P.A. breaks TWRP so I'd be forced to reinstall the rom from scratch with every rom update so I can't use P.A.

Not required . It is very easy to get twrp after flashing PA. It is a problem with sony devices. Follow my guide on how to get twrp, but download the twrp for your device and not for z3 compact

Im not a 100% sure this will work, it mostly wont work, but try using kingroot to get root on the device, then use flashfire to flash recovery to boot/FOTA/Recovery partition depending on your device. Then try getting into recovery. But how did you get recovery in the first place if you had a broken USB? Why would you take chances?
Hi panzerox123, Thanks for link to guide but no go - I followed that guide five times and failed five times. It fails at 'To enter recovery mode, power off your phone, and press and hold Vol-down and Power button together until you see the sony logo.', it boots stock android instead. I tried flashing to Recovery and to the FOTAKernel - both failed. Recovery doesn't work with stock or Paranoid Android on this Z3TC but does with CM12 and FreeXperia.

Really? This is how I got recovery back when I flashed pa. Are you sure fastvoot is working in your device? When you hold vol- and power button for around 10 seconds, you shoyuld see Sony logo, and then screen flashes and enters recovery.
Another question, did you download the correct twrp for your device? The link in the thread is for z3 compact phone
My tablet is the SGP611 'scorpion_windy'. Firmware: SGP611_23.5.A.1.291_UK.ftf TWRP: twrp-3.0.2-0-scorpion_windy.img (https://dl.twrp.me/scorpion_windy/twrp-3.0.2-0-scorpion_windy.img)
Vol- and power buttons are pressed until I get the Sony logo but it doesn't enter recovery - instead the tablet boots. Unlike with CM12, I don't get to see the violet led either.

Hmmmm very weird... are you on stock or pa?
Wait... Flash the latest firmware available for your device using flashtool. It updates bootloader so you can enter recovery using the above.
If all else fails, there is another method to update pa without starting from scratch every time. Can't explain it right now, I'm on Mt phone, when I get to lapptop , I'll explain
23.5.A.1.291 is the latest firmware that I downloaded with XperiFirm http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142
Either stock or P.A. won't enter recovery.

The only method that will work for stock on this tablet to get recovery right now is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-...torial-stock-android-marshmallow-6-0-t3409486 using RecRoot.
As for P.A. - attempting to enter recovery results in continuous bootloops until reset.

That only happens when the wrong recovery is flashed...
RecRoot is only used with stock because it was designed for the Z3 phone so obviously that is no good for our purposes as would still have to flash the correct version of twrp.
So I either flash the base.img from CM12 (lollipop) scorpion_windy or FreeXperia 6.0.1 (marshmallow) scorpion_windy, then flash TWRP scorpion_windy. Then get into recovery, then wipe dalvik, system, data, cache, then install paranoid android, then wipe dalvik + cache and finally reboot. Well it boots fine but booting in to recovery just ends in bootloops.

Same here.
Entering Recovery from ADB or standard hard buttons (USB + Vol-Up several time at boot) caused the boot loops.
The only way I found to enter the Recovery mode is: Unplug USB, Vol-down + Power press at the same time until the sony logo comes up.

That is not how you enter recovery, that is how you enter fastboot mode... To enter recovery, you need to have a recovery installed on the recovery partition. To enter it, press vol-down+power button until you see sony logo and then leave the buttons

When the device is normally powered up, the status led turns purple/pink. There if the Volum-up (down as well?) is pressed a couple of time, the LED changes color and the device enters the Recovery mode.
Of course you need a recovery image to be flashed in the recovery partition.
The problem here is that with some ROMs (i.e. AOSPA) is not possible to enter the recovery mode via "purple/pink led" procedure. The device will enter a reboots loop.
This procedure works properly with CM12.1 and CM13.

How to boot into recovery
Switch off your Xperia Z first
Switch it back on and the time when you see your phone’s LED notification light turn purple or pink — start pressing either the Volume UP or Volume Down key a couple of times and your phone will reboot into recovery

That is when your recovery is embedded with the kernel. If you have the latest marshmallow build for Sony, it allows to to boot into recovery partiton .
so I was having some battery issues and wanted to reset. i for some reason went to settings reset instead of booting to twrp to reset. nonetheless it booted to twrp. I wanted an all the way clean data install so I hit format data and rebooted. now it just keeps booting into twrp. i restored a backup which sys successful but it still goes back to twrp. I can get into fastboot, recoveery. and download mode. I just cant boot into the system.. any help would be appreciated. with no kdz available I dont know what to do..
EDIT FIXED: so apparently you cannot boot to twrp to reset from the factory reset screen on the phone. once I booted to twrp manually and rebooted it started up. really weird.
having same issue with us996 now cant boot to system followed root instructions to factory reset now i cant boot to anything other than twrp whats the button combo and chould u provide detailed instructions please?

Press power and volume down at same time. When lg logo appears realeasw the power button for 1 sec and repress. Then when you get to the all white reset screen press yes and yes again on the next screen. This will get you back into twrp. You might need to reflash the recovery img(not sure, but I did). Restore your backup or whatever and then reboot system. Might have to format data within twrp prior to restore. Think I did that too.
pretty sure im screwed until a rom is released i tried what you said i chouldnt get a white screen to appear still went to twrp directly and it seems i accidently deleted my restore point >< can h918 flash on us996? even though its tmobile?
so i got it booting but it keeps rebooting after a getting to home screen a notification pops up and says android is upgrading when finished it reboots

For reasons I'll never understand, I ended up in this situation with my H918 after doing an accidental factory reset (tried entering TWRP but TWRP wasn't installed... oops!) and re-rooting. After installing TWRP 3.0.2-1, I was completely unable to boot to system. I tried reflashing various stock partitions and a custom ROM, relocked and unlocked the bootloader a few times, and wiped/formatted/reparitioned the crap out of the poor thing. In the end, the only thing that worked was to flash TWRP a second time. Go figure.
Thanks for being so thorough in describing what you tried on the road to success!
I keep getting sent to twrp. Not sure how to fix it. I can't boot android. Have tried reinstalling roms. nothing working.
when i use button combo to boot into twrp it go to twrp then starts to boot up phone and sits at lg logo after i tried restore a backup. even after factory reset it loads 100% but never boots up

since you're having this problem with TWRP , it means you've rooted the phone right?
asking cz i'm looking to get the LG V20 but don't know about the risk of it bootlooping itself, without rooting or anything like that, like it used
to happen on lg g4 and g3.
Thank you

You most likely don't need to go through all of those hoops in the link above.
Have you tried power on and volume down to go through the factory reset screens.
A bunch of us had this problem and it was because an update downloaded on it's own and the bootloader snoops it out and forces recovery to boot.
Just do the volume down + power button - as soon as you see the lg logo release power only then immediately re-press power and continue holding power and volume down until the factory reset screen pops up. Select yes and yes, (don't worry - if you have twrp recovery it can't reset). It will boot you into TWRP and I'm pretty sure it will delete the update files in fota folder.
In TWRP select reboot - system and it should boot normally like nothing happened.

I ran into this issue and did as you wrote to re-flash Lineage 14 and it WORKED! Took me hours to get to this post, but after some searching around i'm so relieved and so much less frustrated! Thank you for your input!
The issue I am having is that I wanted to set my phone back to factory, after I relocked the bootloader my phone when booting(with or without the volume keys) would shut off right after showing the ZTE boot screen. Now when I connect it, it shows up as HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5)..
Ive been looking at these two forums similar to my problem:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/bricked-a2017u-t3573798
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/a2017g-totally-bricked-t3537990
I understand I should use the axon7tool(When I try "axon7tool -r boot" i get failed to connect) , but I dont know exactly what I am doing.. I apologize for me being so dumb about this but if someone could please spell out exactly what I would have to do, to get my phone back to factory settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
RECAP: Bootloader locked, shows up as HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5), It did have TWRP.
EDIT: When trying MiFlash, I get a ERROR_BAD_FORMAT 0
I just did the exact same thing you did and had the same issue. What worked for me was downloading the factory image from ZTE, putting it on an SD card, going into stock recovery (vol up + power) and select apply update from sd card. The file you download from ZTE is double zipped, so make sure to extract the update.zip file from the parent zip before you put it on the SD card. It will be in a folder with the same parent zip name. I no longer can boot into bootloader from stock recovery (not sure if that's normal), but at least my phone works again. Here's the link.
https://www.zteusa.com/axon-7#support
Hope this helps.
EDIT: I also had TWRP when I locked my bootloader, so I'm assuming you're able to get to stock recovery with volume up + power.
Doesnt let me boot into anything.. Not sure how I screwed it up this badly. Im trying a MiFlash method right now to see if it helps
what happens when you hold down volume up and power button at the same time? you should feel a vibrate and when you let go, you should see the stock recovery.
No, Just shuts off after the ZTE logo pops up
The phone might still be on at that point. When the ZTE logo would pop up for a split second for me, MiFlash was able to see the phone. What happens when you just hold the power button for about 10 seconds right after the screen goes off? Does it stay off?
I believe you are right, when the logo isnt up(after it disappears) that is when it connects as the COM5 otherwise when the logo pops up it disconnects the resumes the cycle.
so if I hold it, it just keeps showing the ZTE logo then shutting off
Just to clarify, holding down both the volume up and power button simultaneously at the same time for at least 3-5 seconds after the phone is off (not after the screen goes blank after the ZTE logo) still gives the same result as if you just pressed the power button?
Yes.
If MiFlash can see the phone, maybe you can unlock the bootloader again?
exact same problem as you, except MiFlash successfully flashes B19 but it still doesn't boot
What you need is FLASH stock recovery in EDL Mode.
That will fix your problem..
P.S. as soon you boot your device after Flashing stock recovery ,will perform a factory reset.

You have to install a custom rom or root to make twrp permanent, if you don't do that it will install always after the first boot the stock recovery.

When you have flashed twrp, you do the buton combination to enter twrp, if you fail to enter twrp a the phone boots into system the stock recovery will be reflashed so you have to reflash twrp.
Try making these:
When you are in the bootloader after flashing twrp press button down+ power button. When the screen turns off quickly stop pressing power button and quickly press again until the lg logo appear.
When the lg logo appear stop pressing power button, quickly press again and stop pressing the power button and press again quickly until you see twrp logo.
These method works for me for booting twrp easily
The stock recovery appears but you have to select the factory reset option and it will boot into TWRP

Hey, i have the same Problem, my TWRP broke, i can't boot into recovery and my Device ist not listed in fastboot mode. Can someone help me out?
I get the ring in windows when i plugin but its not recognizing.. Can someone pls help me out?
Okay, I'm going to try to explain it, and see if I can succeed where others have not.
You install TWRP by booting to bootloader and using fastboot to push a new recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
It seems like you accomplished that successfully. The next step is to immediately boot to recovery; do not boot the phone to system first. You will get the factory prompts for wiping data, but it will not actually wipe your data this time. Instead it will boot to TWRP.
Now, while you are in TWRP, you need to either root (flash Magisk) or install a custom ROM. If you do not, your next boot to system will remove TWRP and restore the stock recovery. If that happens, then the data-wiping prompts the next time you boot to recovery are real and the phone will wipe. So you MUST - must must must - root or install a custom ROM while you have TWRP up, in order for TWRP to persist.
If you have already experienced this problem, you need to start over at the beginning; flash TWRP again, and then follow the rest of these directions.
Maybe this will help clear up the problem for you guys.

Got the same problem. I unlocked Bootloader, checked if unlocked (yes). After flashing TWRP i see the TeamWin Screen and phone boot again. There is no TeamWin Menu.
A try with an older TWRP-Version and flashing via fastboot with another PC does not work too.
Anybody an idea?
Did you guys manage to fix it?

With 3.2.1.0, 3.2.2.0 and 3.2.3.0 it only briefly shows the TWRP screen and then boots into system anyway.
With 3.1.1.0 the key combination to boot into TWRP as with the other versions above simply doesn't work, again it directly boots into system without even showing the TWRP screen.
I'm stuck with a resetted phone because of this bull****, because some instructions said "oh, the reset dialog will not really reset your data..." - yeah thanks for nothing, buddy.
So what now?
EDIT: I got it working using TWRP 3.1.1.0, but the same version from the OFFICIAL site didn't work, as I described above.

I was planning on either trying to reinstall Oxygen, or maybe the unofficial Lineage. I am pretty sure I was able to reboot the phone a few times holding power & volume down. I ran into some sort of sideloading issue, rebooted using power & volume down, and tried again, and it seemed to resolve it. I was attempting to sideload one of the images, and I was getting a bad zip format message. I tried to reboot the phone holding the buttons, and it wasn't working. I selected the reboot button within TWRP, and chose system.
It rebooted, and I got the Qualcomm CrashDump Mode image.
I can reboot the phone into fastboot mode holding volume up, & volume down, & power. I don't know where to go from here.

Could you please tell me.. Is it possible to use a Windows emulator to use MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe? I use Linux and have no access to a Windows machine.
