[Q] Help me on fastbooting :( - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've downloaded all the things that im supposed to download. There's recovery image (for froyo 322) and update for froyo 322 and the fastboot file.
Firstly, i made my dell streak onto Fastboot mode.
Then i connected it and it said "Fastboot_Mode"
After that i open Command Prompt and open fastboot.exe which was located in fastboot file
But, when i type "fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery (my recovery image file name)" it says "fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable programme or batch file"
Im on windows 7 home basic. Someone please help me. My phone's still in fastboot mode till now

You need to make sure you change the directory of the command prompt to the folder your fastboot.exe is in. Then use fastboot.exe instead of just fastboot in the command

[Q] i need help...

Hi guys..
im trying to type in command prompt in my pc but this is what it says..
'fastboot.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
im trying to type this..
Type in the following command: fastboot.exe -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
what should i do? im a noob when it comes to tech.. thanks in advance!
First, put your fastboot.exe file just in the root of your harddrive, for example "C"
Also put your recovery.img in the same place as the fastboot.exe
then open your comander and type: cd c:
then type: fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
then type: fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
give it a try!
good luck

make sure your fastboot is named FASTBOOT.EXE and not FASTBOOT32.exe, If it is, just either rename it, or modify your command line.

[Q] Unlocked 4.5.141 bootloader, attempted to flash recovery, receive error, help?

I have 4.5.141 unlocked, rooted and I have GooManager installed, I try to have it flash the TWRP version 2.1.1 recovery for me automatically so I can try to download and flash a custom ROM and it downloads and it flashes the custom recovery and the phone reboots and I get an error that reads "Failed to Boot 2 Starting RSD Mode" and when I pull the battery, the phone reboots and the "Failed to boot 2" message does not show up. Can anyone help me in trying to successfully flash a custom recovery onto my Atrix 4G?

Download TWRP recovery from this thread
Download moto-fastboot-win32.zip from this thread
Unzip them both to the same folder on your computer (eg.: c:\fastboot).
Make sure all files are in the same folder: moto-fastboot, the ADB DLL files and recovery.img
Open a command prompt window pointing to that folder (tip: hold shift on the keyboard, right click on the folder and select "open command window here")
Connect yout atrix to your pc via USB and boot your atrix into fastboot mode (when the phone is off, keep the VOL - button pressed and press the power button. When Fastboot appears, press VOL +)
Now issue type these commands into the command prompt:
moto-fastboot erase recovery
moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
after it's done, type
moto-fastboot reboot
After that you should be able to boot into TWRP recovery. Cheers!

I'm having a problem, I typed in moto-fastboot erase recovery and it says
"erasing 'recovery' ... FAILED <remote: <00180001>>"
and on the phone itself it reads in red text:
"Failed to process command erase:recovery error(0x180001)"
Is there a way to fix this error?
I fixed this, re-flashed the pudding.zip file I found, and I got the recovery to flash.

If you have your twrp 2.1 on pc, do fastboot install (see the twrp page for details) then adb push a rom to the prime and install it... you should be okay then....

When you plug the device into the pc, is it recovery or fastboot mode? Not sure it will show up if it is in a bootloop. Also if you are in recovery, you should be running adb from within the folder the exe file is in... basically open the folder, press and hold shift then rightclick and select open command prompt here then type adb devices and see what you get.

The adb commands won't work in fastboot... you need to use the fastboot commands.
From: http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/93
Put the attached file in your nvflashpack folder where you see the fastboot.exe, this way you don't need to type paths. In the same window press and hold shift, rightclick in the window and select open command prompt here. Make sure the prime is already in fastboot mode.... now, copy the command below and rightclick in the command window and select paste (avoids typing mistakes) press enter and with any luck you should be able to boot to twrp recovery...
You will need adb and fastboot for this method. Download the above file, check the md5, rename to twrp.img and put the file in the same directory as your fastboot binary (unless you have /platform-tools in PATH then you can flash from anywhere). Turn off your device and boot to fastboot (power on while holding volume down, then select the usb icon and hit volume up to confirm). The device will now be in fastboot mode. Plug the device into your computer. Run the following command via the command line:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.img
If you use the attached file you don't need the modified bootloader, you will have an older version of twrp but the whole point is to get you running first...
After you do this, boot into recovery, connect the prime to the PC and with the rom in the same folder as adb.exe, open a command window like before. Type adb devices, you should see the prime... then do adb push /the name of your rom.zip/ sdcard/
For the name of the rom, I usually right click the file, go to properties and copy the name.. (no spelling mistakes) again, right click in command window and paste and be sure to put .zip at the end. This should take about 5 minutes to complete. Then in recovery, go to install and you should be able to flash the rom....

You will need adb and fastboot for this method. Download the above file, check the md5, rename to twrp.img and put the file in the same directory as your fastboot binary (unless you have /platform-tools in PATH then you can flash from anywhere). Turn off your device and boot to fastboot (power on while holding volume down, then select the usb icon and hit volume up to confirm). The device will now be in fastboot mode. Plug the device into your computer. Run the following command via the command line:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.img
You need to rename the file see the red text above. I would download nvflash from here.... http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/ the windows zip file.... unzip it and from within the window get your command prompt.... make sure you have the twrp file I attached earlier in the same folder... then copy fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.img and rightclick and paste into the command filed press enter..... it should install twrp....
now if I have misunderstood and you don't know how to get the prime into fastboot hold volume down and power, when you see the white text in the top left corner, press volume up then volume up to select fastboot of course the prime will be connected to the pc before this...
btw we were all noobs at one point... this is our school....

TWRP on Honor 9 can not be installed

I have already unlocked the bootloader on my Honor 9. That worked. But what does not work is the installation of the current TWRP. I go directly after the instructions and have inserted the Recover.img in the ADB folder and open the execution command with Shift and right mouse button. But under Windows 10 x64 bit the following error occurs after entering "adb reboot bootloader" or "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img".
"fastboot: The name" fastboot "was not used as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
recognized executable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if the path is correct (provided

I did it exactly according to the instructions:
2.) Download “adb-fastboot-tool-2016.zip” unzip it Download TWRP recovery.
3.) Rename TWRP recovery IMG file “twrp-3.1.1-0-stf.img” to “recovery.img” and copy to adb-fastboot-tool-2016 Folder.
4.) Open cmd windows in adb-fastboot-tool-2016 folder by Shift + Mouse Right click.
adb fastboot cmd - Install TWRP 3.1.1 Recovery and Root Honor 9 EMUI 5.1
5.) Connect your phone to PC.
6.) Now paste this command on command window and hit enter to reboot your phone into bootloader (FASTBOOT) mode.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8.) Reboot the device.
