I have lost my Recovery (Micromax A54) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.! Well, there's a serious issue with my phone - it is running without recovery. Everything happened when I wanted to install a CWM recovery for updating a new ROM for my Micromax A54 Phone. I searched alot on "how to install CWM recovery on micromax" and also the ROM, and tried every step carefully. But, at the end, when I used Recovery Manager for installing the same, it rebooted the phone and gone! And even today, when I start RecoveryManager for purpose of fixing my phone's recovery, sometimes it restarts itself automatically and sometimes, if in case RecMan starts, it reboots while reflashing the Stock Recovery/CWM. I want to install a new ROM for my phone but for that, I need to have a recovery in my phone.
When I start phone into Recovery Mode, the Ninja logo gets stuck up there leaving phone in unstable state. All I have to do then is to restart my phone and try again! Till today, I have not found how to fix my phone and get a new ROM+CWM for it. Please help with this.
Thanks a lot!! :fingers-crossed:

[Q] My phone dead (fastboot stuck)

Please quickly
my phone is lg optimus me
I rooted it
then I downloaded ROM Manager I clicked on backup CURRENT ROM then the phone rebooted to the recovery mode black screen
fastboot was started
udc_start()
then Now please how to fix it any method formatting recovery flashing any method please
and then why the ROM manager did that
?
try this
seems you did not installed any custom recovery, as TWRP or CWM, only this can do a nadroid-back up of your phone
but can you reboot it, even pulling out and in battery? if yes try to install the right custom recovery for your phone
backing up with ROM manager only create a short cut to the installed recovery and from then you can make a back-up, so if it's not installed the phone stuck
IDK with your phone but follow exactly the guide to rooting
Thnx man i reflashed my fw and then it works good

U need to install TWRP, coz a390 doesn't have default recovery. Ask Google for TWRP, install using flashtool.

The stock recovery what you have got.
If you press the home button, you can see the menu.
If you want to install a custom recovery, you can use my ported CWM, which works. This recovery is based on bgcngm ZTE V970 recovery, using his mtktools.
CWM 6.0.1.2 for Lenovo A390
md5sum : 8ef0d0a92682a93fe147436d0ce20549
You can install it - considering that your phone is rooted - with the help of MobileUncleTools; Possible ways from A820 thread.
Ok.Thanks sir :thumbup:

Red triangle dead android still appears even with your cwm
Hello Cappa. I too have rooted my Lenovo A390 using framaroot. and installed ROM Manager. Initially, ROM manager complained there is no clockworkmod recovery for my device model. I then flashed your clockworkmod recovery using spflashtool. Successful and ROM Manager finally detcted my clockworkmod too as version 5.x.x.x.. But, then when i tried to backup my current ROM, phone reboots and tries to enter recovery mode. But, then the dead android killed by a red triangle still appears. Help me!!!! Somewhere i read that it is the stock recovery icon and the phone should still be able to enter recovery mode using volume up, down buttons. Is it true. Somewhere, I read that TWRP must be used instead, because LENOVO A390 does not have cutom recovery. What should I do next? Suggest. If TWRP should be installed, I would wish to remove CWM first. Is it possible to remove CWM, after it has been flashed?
Sorry for lots of questions.
Will be grateful for your help.
Regards

There can be many reasons for not having the CWM.
You mentioned that you could flash the CWM.
I have not used ROM manager for MTK platform - I don't know if it is compatible with it. I used Mobileuncletools instead: you can change recovery with this program (can be downloaded from PlayStore - free app)
Right after you change the recovery from stock to CWM, then you have to enter into it.
And then make a backup directly from CWM.
This is my suggestion.
Also, I would recommend that run the chinese application remover, right after entering the CWM.
The reason why I suggest it that the stock rom can contain patches, which rewrite all the modified recovery to stock.
can i flash twrp recovery with same scatter file to remove cwm
One more question. I found on several forums that TWRP recovery works for Lenovo A390 and can be flashed using SPFlashtool. Will flashing the TWRP recovery overwrite the CWM recovery, if I use the same scatter file. I guess the scatter file provides the start and end address for flashing into ROM.

Hello,
I visited TWRP site as well as CWM recovery site. Niether of them supports Lenovo_A390_ROW, not listed. I guess coz the brand is new to the market. ROM Manager too complains that the phone model is not supported and I should wait until an official recovery from CWM is available. However, I googled and got one CWM recovery by cappa for Lenovo_A390 but got the dead android triangle. Then, I googled and got a TWRP recovery for Lenovo_A390_Row and flashed this one too (some friends suggested flashing with same scatter file overwrite the previous CWM). But, I still get the dead andorid with triangle icon. What is wrong? I guess the recovery images that I am flashing are not correct. Do you have the correct TWRP recovery image for Lenovo_A390_ROW?
How can I use SPflashtool and make the downloaded cwm 6.012 a scatter file?

I downloaded SPflashtool and the CWM recovery image. It says I need a scatter file and it couldn't continue. How do I make that CWM recovery image a scatter file to flash and how do you flash that into the phone using SPflasher? Do I need ROM Manager for that?

[Q] STOCK recovery blocked. device not booting to recovery

I have a new lava iris 506Q about which there is no
discussion on XDA ,which is rooted by me by framaroot.
It works fine everything after root and using many
rooted apps like system tuner, lucky patcher etc. But
when I try to backup my device by ROM toolbox pro it
state that there is no cwm recovery and reboots to my
stock recovery where I can only backup the userdata.
Then I googled for cwm recovery . And I got nothing
about lava iris 506Q. So I think to flash iris 504Q's
cwm recovery . I did this by using "flashify pro" android
flashing app It flashed it and reboots.
Then I checked whether it is done or not. When I want
to reboots to recovery by pressing home+volume.
+power key it does not boots to recovery mode rather it
boots to normal mode. Now I can use my android phone
rooted smoothly but I Lost my stock recovery for which
I can not reset my device and can not go to stock recovery and
my phone is now restricted.
Please help. I know it was my fault to flash wrong
recovery. But plz help I don't have any stock recovery
but I have stock ROM of my device and my device is
now rooted.
What can be done????? can a cwm recovery flash solve it. but there is no cwm recovery cirrently available on XDA / so please upload it or tell me yhe way to solve it . plzzzzz

Trouble installing roms

Ok guys, Heres what I do & what happens,
(model # C6833)
1- root device
2- install new boot kernel (adv-stock-v4) (( Even tried v5))
3- unlock bootlader (only had to do it the first time, bootloader stays unlocked)
4- install cwm/TWiRP
5- get into TWIRP or CWM & wipe as I should
6- install rom. (It wont install)
7- reboot
8- stuck @ sony logo. & then reboots,
9- reinstall stock rom
This happens every time I try to install a rom.
I also get the message before I reboot, no root, would you like cmw/twirp to fix it, I go with yes. & ive tryed no as well. no difference. Still get stuck @ Sony logo & get reboot loop.
Any ideas ?
Im not new at rooting & roming.
Hey, it sounds like you're installing NUT's dual recovery and are trying to flash a CM/AOSP based ROM? I didn't find it possible to flash non-Sony ROMs using that recovery, myself. What you need to do is to first flash the kernel (boot.img) from the ROM you're trying to flash. You can do this using fastboot with the phone set to fastboot mode. The FlashTool program comes with what you need, and there's a guide to using it in the development forum. The kernel contains the recovery (either CWM or TWRP), so after flashing that, you can boot to recovery and install any CM/AOSP ROM you wish.

I did the flashtool thing. ( I'll edit my post ) I did the boot.img & Im trying to use SlimRom. Everything seems to be fine until I try & install the rom. Then it goes to hell.
Btw, Slimrom is compatable.
So what's the actual error message you get upon installing a ROM?
Something like, installation canceled. could not install rom. It goes threw a few steps. gets a few things installed (or so it seems) & then it hangs & I get that message. I thought, at first, it may have been a corrupt download. But after a few times of downloading it. I kinda think its no longer that.
Have you tried another ROM? Someone else is also having boot trouble with Slim in its development thread.
No actually, I have not. I will soon though now. And report back. First I need a stock U.S. rom. Just in case. Cant seem to find one.
Been using a CE (Central Europe) based stock rom.

[solved]Bricked my tablet? Galaxy tab3v SM T113

What had happened:
I got a free tablet, decided to **** around with it....
so, i decided to use odin to flash TWRP recovery with it..
however.. when i try to get to recovery mode, it only shows a ! mark.
therefore, i tried to flash a rooted system image. it worked.
then, with my newly found rooted device, i tried to fix my recovery by
attempting to use cwm.... i pressed on to "boot to recovery", and now its
stuck on a infinite loop, booting to the ! mark. the only thing i can access is download mode.
so.. how do i fix it? feel free to ask any qns i will try to provide the infomation needed.
thanks.
Well, the problem here seems to be that you messed up with the boot or the system files, maybe your bootloader is blocked so you need root to flash a custom recovery or ROM and to unlock the bootloader, you should first check the CWM supported devices list before actually flashing Clockwork recovery!
Try to flash a full stock rom through fastboot mode.
