I am using LG X-Cam K580DS( Dual SIM )
'abd reboot bootloader' works, the phone did boot into fastboot
'fastboot oem unlock' works, you'll wipe your phone by doing so
unfortunately we do not have any Recovery like CWM or TWRP, so I have no way to flash a superSU, anyone have any idea?
Yes ...
use any guide or tool for porting recoveries ..first download .kdz & extract stock recovery ..use tool to port a twrp for your device ..
Put latest magisk zip on SD card
On device
/settings/about
-enable developer options by clicking on build number
-enable adb
-uncheck verify apps by USB
-allow unknown sources
-authorize PC connection
then using adb
adb reboot bootloader
PUT PORTED RECOVERY INTO FASTBOOT/ADB FOLDER
fastboot boot recovery (name of recovery).IMG
I use :
fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
*if & when recovery boots
-swipe to allow changes
- REBOOT SYSTEM
*IGNORE CORRUPTED DEVICE MESSAGE
-boot recovery again using fastboot
-swipe to allow changes
-in fastboot flash latest magisk .zip
-reboot system & and you will have "systemless" root without custom recovery
*Hints ..look for device with similar specs and see if the recovery will boot so port won't be necessary
*DO NOT FLASH RECOVERY IMG BECAUSE LITTLE KERNEL WILL PREVENT DEVICE FROM BOOTING
*DO NOT USE SUPERSU SYSYEM DEVICE WON'T
BOOT
*COPY .ZIP TO DECOMPRESS FILE SYSYEM IF YOU WANT TO SUPERSU SYSTEMLESS OR WON'T BOOT
*CHECK OUT lg k8 thread by Gottlaz for tips on twrp porting & experience....
Good luck bro
Hey Guys,
I have a redmi 3s prime and i tried to install lineage os on it, during the process i accidentaly flashed twrp over both the recovery and the boot. Now i cannot get into the recovery (and fastboot) unless i flash it over boot before rebooting my phone. After that i AM able to flash an new rom but it seems to always have wifi issues.
atm i am trying to flash the xiaomi developers global rom to see if it makes any difference. My main goal is to flash TWRP and a curstom rom (linage or resurrectionremix).
Can anyone help me?
Thanks alot!
Update #1
The flashing of the global developer rom worked and the wifi seems to work aswell, i will try to boot into fastboot and recovery.
Update #2
Its seems i am able to boot into fastboot and recovery again
Update #3
Following a tutorial for flashing TWRP and a custom rom but cant se2 anyone help me here?:
Code:
>>> Check then next step to root :
- launch minimal adb tool (previously installed)
- type : adb devices (to list phone connected) it will appear "unauthorized"
- on the phone : accept the computer
- re type : adb devices
it has changed in "authorized"
- type : adb reboot bootloader
it will go in fastboot mode (the same that power + vol down)
- type : fastboot devices
your phone will appear as in adb mode (unless the bad signed driver is choosen in win10 ; i won't repeat it again)
- type (optional) : fastboot oem device-info (to verify if bootloader is locked or unlocked)
now, we go to root
- type : fastboot boot twrp.img (if it is your renamed twrp copied in the minimal adb folder)
link for TWRP guide at the end if needed
!!! it will boot temporary in this recovery but it will keep your original recovery !!!
> allow to modify system (don't keep the "read only" if you want to root or flash recovery later)
go to settings to set date, hours, language, set custom options...
My optional advices :
- save your EFS & persist partitions or all whole partitions (except cache) to make a backup
- export this backup in computer or SD card in case of future problem
(EFS, persist are usefull to save and restore your IMEI in particular)
- you can flash directly TWRP with fastboot command : fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
>>> Root :
Now flash DM-verity patch, then superSU.zip to root and accept to wipe dalvik/cache after, finally reboot !
Device is rooted ! and you have kept the original recovery.
the reboot is quite long like rom update (because of cache rebuild)
sometimes, parts of theme are lost after rooting : just restore your theme
some devices don't need DM-verity patch as explained upper
superSU app shows "systemless root" from android 6+, it is normal, read below
>>> Change the Recovery by TWRP (optional) :
Now you are rooted, you have 2 methods :
- Install one TWRP app with googleplay and flash recovery through app on rooted device.
New official app in development (flash/backup .img & .tar)
- OR reboot in fastboot mode (with TWRP app method or power+vol- method or adb reboot recovery method)
in fastboot mode, and type commands :
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
(be sure your twrp.img is unlocked and correctly copied/renamed in minimal adb folder)
Now, long press power to turn OFF phone
power + vol+ (release power at vibration) to enter in TWRP or by TWRP app or Updater app or under Windows with minimal adb reboot recovery command
Note for devices with DM-verity : flashing TWRP needs to have patched system with DM-verity patch before because you will modify system most of time - generally, you don't need to patch again because you have ever done it in previous steps - in case of bootloop : go to fastboot mode, boot in TWRP with command and patch it.
Chainfire has recently modified superSU for android 6+ devices with DM-verity to install root without modify the system : it's called "systemless root". When you flash superSU.zip, it detects automatically android version, cleans old files and installs with appropriate method. Maybe no need to patch boot in this case with DM patch.

Did fastboot gave some error message, also did you only test to go to recovery straight from fastboot, because that is other recovery which can't be changed.

Just to make sure because the recovery stuff with this device can be at start a bit confusing. Please check does the recovery you boot into have factory reset option in it.
Also can you give a link for the twrp you flashed?

I tried a lot of versions of twrp from forum here for p8 lite.Today i tried 3.0.2.I cant select factory reset because the phone crashed because the bootloader is unlocked i think.But if you think that the phone has to be in factory reset i will relock bootloader.Another question.If i downgrade firmware to android 5.0 tools such king root will be success?I have firmware from my county greece.If i choose android 5 firmware from other country i will have problem?

1. Booloader unlocking only affects to what you can flash in fastboot, it doesn't affect stock recovery funtionality.
I asked about factory reset option, because I wanted to make sure you aren't booting to "recovery2/eRecovery". (It doesn't have factory reset option)
2. Avoid using kingoroot and other oneclick root apps if it is possible.
3. Your firmware version doesn't matter.
4. Bootloader unlocking can't cause crash. Locked bootloader could cause crash if system is modified(I think), but you would still be able to get recovery.
One way to make sure you boot to normal recovery is to connect your phone to pc --> open command line --> type "adb reboot recovery". This won't take you to erecovery
I can't do any better help with the current information.
After you successfully flash the recovery with fastboot (always use the latest!) You need to do these things in order (and fast) in order to but to TWRP. If you don't it will boot to stock recovery and you have to fastboot flash again.
You must
a) write fastboot reboot in the console but don't pass Enter!!
b) hold VOLUME UP
c) (still holding VOL UP) presss Enter and remove the USB cable immediately once it says your device is booting now.
Keep holding VOL UP until you boot to TWRP. Allow modifications.
For root you will flash Magisk (you know, normal zip), which a) is open source, so no sneaky stuff and b) can hide root from apps as a bonus. You can always get the zip here: http://tiny.cc/latestmagisk
Important: If you have other root solutions install them for example SuperSU has an uninstall option. Then flash Magisk

The recovery you go from fastboot is eRecovery. You can't boot to stock or TWRP recovery directly from fastboot. If you choose shutdown from eRecovery then you can just go to TWRP with normal way (power + VOL UP). Going to eRecovery doesn't undo TWRP installation. (This also means you can do force update even with TWRP installed, I think, not 100% sure)

I do this every time. See surdu's post here. Fastboot reboo is just a reboot, so the familiar key combo will boot to recovery.

I just wanted to point out that you don't need to re-flash if you happen to only press vol up in fastboot.
Here we go !
TWRP Official for MOTO E 4 mediatek version
Disable dm verity.zip to avoid bootloop to disable verified boot
Stock Recovery in case you lost it somewhere during flashing other recovery that is corrupted or unstable or interrupted process resulting bricked device
To flash boot use : booting to fastboot mode
Enter fastboot devices to confirm adb connection
Now copy file to same adb folder all files
Use code : fastboot flash recovery ***filename***.img
Now with TWRP Official you can flash zip for
Magisk or Super Su pro
Stock boot image flash using flashify to use boot here https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4360095&d=1513222799

Hello, i installed dotos custom rom and gapps after flashed TWRP without root access (i don't want to root my device), all was good, the custom rom work good, so to day i manage to reinstall the same rom with another time gapps (the cause is for delete some application), all was good , and i read that it's good to make a hard reset for that the rom work nicely (i do it from the setting), i do it but after that the smartphone reboot and stuck on TWRP, i reboot the system from TWRP but don't work, it open all the time TWRP, the recovery menu disaper (i use the key volume"-" and power button don't work it don't enter to the recovery mode), i can only boot to bootloader from TWRP and access fastboot mode:
=>fastboot mode
=>unlocked
i use "fastboot continu" to access system but sim don' work in this way. so i come to you for help, i want that the system work like before, thank for your patience and help.
Reboot into fastboot mode
Have at least minimal ADB interface and fastboot drivers installed
Use a command prompt to cd to ur fastboot drivers normally C:\adb
in the same folder have your TWRP recovery image.
Then use the command fastboot flash recovery [twrpfilename.img]
Then fastboot reboot
Hold power and vol down and once in the boot loader use volume up to select recovery then press power to boot into the recovery mode
Have magisk on your SD card or go to reboot and TWRP will root your device you must never try to unroot a custom ROM because at some point they will all fail and you'll be in this problem.. i have hundreds of different custom ROMs from Android 4 to 8 and not one of them has been flawless they all have issues and big problems in the end, like operating system breaking glitches your best off sticking with stock firmware and modded and debloating urselg
