[Q] Recovery / ROM problem - HTC One X+

Hello,
I tried to install the VIPER ROM but had no succes.
Now i have a problem that my phone reboots when i try to do anything in the recovery.
If i start a update.zip or rom.zip it starts and just crashes/reboots.
Now i cant install anything, adb sideload doesnt work. Nothing. It crashes.
Tried CWM, VenomRecovery and also TWRP newest and older version. All crash.
So how can i fix this?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks!

Of course. Rec. was working normally until I install that OTA yesterday, I mean if he was locked I won't be able to install ROM in the first place.
Wierd I just manage to flash recovery trough WinDroid Tookit but problem is when I choose custom recovery and pick Venom TWRP he do the same thing when I want to enter like I describe in first post, and with original TWRP that I download from their site too. But when I flash TWRP from WinDroid's menu it's working.

[Q] Bootloop after CM 11

Hello.
I've had twrp 2.6.3 with cm 10.2.1 stable, and today morning my device asked me for an update to cm11. After the update my device didn't boot, so i started to do research, i found out that i need cwm to get cm11 working, thats why im now on this site.
First i did a backup of all important files/data and then formate the SD Card
so i downloadet cm11 / cwm 6.0.4.6 and the gapps from this site.
installet it in this order:
Fastboot USB
fasboot devices
fastboot flash boot boot.img (from the cm11)
fastboot erase cache
Recovery
install zip from sideload.
adb devices
adb sideload cm11.zip
adb sideload gapps
after this steps i did reboot system.
And i stuck in bootloop right now.
what am I doing wrong?
I have a HOX + International

So did you installed CWR recovery ? if not you need to do that first . Since you say your backups are from TWRP , you better use Philz CWM which has a backup compatibility, else your TWRP backups will not work on CMW ..

Maybe sideloading gapps is the problem? just try sideloading cm11, you can flash gapps later after first boot. Also no need to format complete /data partition (including /media) when you already had Android 4.2 or later installed.

I wiped everything, and still stuck in bootloop from cyanogenmod.
Do I need to wipe cache after installing the cm11 from sideload?
I will try it now with the All-In-One Kit from hasoon.
Now I got another problem.
I Installet the newest HTC Sync Manager, because i got the error with htc mtp device. And now in the device manager my pc thinks its an htc one... and the ohter problem is, in cmd it doesn't recognize adb..
I Really need help here...
I installed over 4 different sync managers. and a few drivers, but my pc still don't recognize my phone..
ADB is working now...
i think i now the problem, i got an old version of hboot. version 1.72.0000 so now im trying to update it.
Nothing is working. is there another way to get it work? can it be, that I installet something earlier and now its the reason that it wont boot?
At&t X+ or international.... You are doing something wrong here

Can´t reach Recovery

Hi all. Before i start i want to say, i read a lot of threaths and comments before i started to booting recovery and i followed Tutorial that you can find somewhere here on XDA for MotoE.
I unlocked Bootloader correctly and everything was right. Then i downloaded latest version of TWRP and CWM if something will be wrong.
So i booted into bootloader, connected to PC (windows 8.1) and using adb i installed TWRP (by command window). After instalation was complete, i used comand: "fastboot reboot" to get my mobile start normally. Everything worked fine so i started last step. Turned off mobile, booted into bootloader(or maybe fastboot? idk...) and by volumebuttons i choosed "Recovery" . Then a black screen for a minute. After that mobile stuck on screen that i attached down below. So i tried this but with CWM (same process way). But nothing new... Someone said me i had to try "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" but again, nothing happend.
Can you help me guys?
The recovery isn't installed! Reinstall the recovery and follow correct steps!
I tried it one more time. I´m attaching image that is from command window showing that .img was booted ... Strange is, immediately after booting was completed, mobile restarted... and after i turned off mobile again, still i can´t reach recovery. Isn´t that problem in .img file? maybe it´s broken, isn´t it?
Tried once again
Ok last try didnt worked. So i complettly followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/guide-one-moto-e-beginners-guide-t2807891 STEP-BY STEP!
Command window screen attached, Fastboot screen attached.
After reboot, turn off i tried to open recovery and again that image that i posted in first coment. (android figure with words: no command)
By that guide i downloaded recovery from here: https://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/condor/
and i downloaded just "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-condor.img" as i have to do it (written in guide)
Well, your recovery is flashing fine from cmd but its not detected by your phone.
Try re-downloading the recovery and check md5 before flashing.
I'll look into it and see if the issue can be pinpointed.
Btw, you might need the flash the stock ROM back if nothing works.

Okay try this.
Flash CWM
If flashing fails or you get any error, then try booting into recovery.
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
If you boot into recovery, flash the SuperSU package.
Reboot and then flash the recovery.
See if it works.

Do not flash CWM, just boot into it by the command I posted above.
Then try and flash SuperSU, (if you get a root prompt from CWM, select NO.)
Reboot device.
Then again boot into fastboot and now flash recovery (twrp).

I said if flash is not successful, then boot into it. So you can't boot into recovery either.
Here's last resort, extract the stock recovery from stock ROM and flash it. Then we'll try flashing TWRP again.
If you don't have stock ROM, download it. as you might need it to recover.

no i didnt, think you it will help? i mean if i can connect my mobile into pc without any problem in normal mode and in fastboot too... i will unninstal drivers, intall them again and them i will try unninstal motorola device manager and then again intall him.
(i had newest drivers i can update them)
LOL?
OK im in recovery i already flashed superSU...
What did i do?
As you said, i reinstalled all drivers...
then i downloaded same TWRP again (but with mirror source)
I downloaded attached md5 file ( still dont know what should i do with it )
moved recovery and .md5 files into minimal adb and fastboot (both files i renamed to "recovery")
turned off devices
started fastboot
connected to PC
started command window and entered command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
then i didnt wrote sommand "fastboot reboot" as i done before
i just unpluged usb and navigate to recovery button and launched it
and VUALA im in recovery
hurraaa
just installed superSU and then rebooted.
everything works (superSU too)
i have one more question...
i downloaded twrp manager from google play
first start: asked for root permission a allowed it
then message appeard:
"The only compatible version of busybox we support is Stericson. All other cause havoc on all operations in this app. Please click yes to install Stericson busybox"
what the heck is busybox?
+Should i download it or not?
Do not use TWRP Manager, ROM Manager, CWM Manager or any other of these Tools. They often do not really work good together with "exotic" fones. Why the heck do you need TWRP manager? You have TWRP installed
Anyway - Busybox you also can download and install from Playstore. Busybox is a collection of executable terminal commands helpful for any kind of script. There are a couple of rooted apps who will ask for busybox support - so don't hesitate to install busybox - but do it directly with busybox app from playstore.
After you have installed the binaries you can de-install the busybox-app. Because all necessary binaries then are copied into /system/bin/ folder and the app itself only will become active once a new version would be available (but this is not the case very often).
ok then

[HELP][OTUS] XT1506 - Stuck at Recovery

I was into the process of rooting my XT1506. Unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp successfully and then in an attempt to installing custom rom via Fastboot, i run the command
fastboot -w
and then when i tried to run "fastboot update rom.zip", it didn't succeed. After that, whatever i do, the phone just boots into recovery and never into the system. Badly need your help, Guys....!!! I shall be really thankful.....
I think i made the thread in wrong section and now i cant find the option to move/delete it. I apologize Mods for this mistake and request them to move it.

If you still have twrp installed, you can wipe everything and flash the custom ROM from the recovery itself.
Tried that too...still it boots into recovery...One more thing i have noticed that in fastboot mode, clicking on "Factory" boots the phone normally.
Is there any problem related with recovery. I have presently Flyrom 5.1.2 installed and recovery is 3.0.1 (also tried twrp-otus-2.7.x), if that helps..
Download any Custom ROM (Lineage OS recommended)
Put that in your SDCard or Internal Storage (USB MTP works in recovery mode)
Go To Wipe Section and check All (Excluding Internal Or MicroSD)
Swipe to format
Then Press the HOME Button
Click on Install
Go to the path where ROM is (Root of the storage is best)
Flash the ROM
Wipe cache/Dalvik Cache (Must Do This)
First Boot may take 15-20 min...
Enjoy :fingers-crossed:
Hit Thanks If I Helped you
Problem solved. I think it was a problem with the recovery. I achieved the solution by flashing stock recovery. Now the phone is booting normal.
I am curious if anybody can suggest me a compatible recovery for this phone. By the way, thanx to all who helped me....You are awesome

That is the same recovery which caused the problems. Anyways, i'll try to put that in again and see if there'll be any difference. Btw, thanx mate..
@ aanishjangra try squid2's port of the recovery and see if it helps, although ensure you flash the recovery and immediately reboot to recovery (Not system) and the ROM gets patched.

Softbrick after twrp flash

Hi everyone,
I tried to install Lineage OS on my Xperia Tablet Z Wifi and followed the instructions here: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pollux_windy/install
I am on Ubuntu and I did unlock the bootloader successfully. Then I tried to flash twrp but this is where things went wrong.
After entering
Code:
fastboot flash boot ./twrp-3.5.2_9-0-pollux_windy.img
the device did not start anymore. I can still enter fastboot mode and the device is recognized on the PC but else the only thing that happens is the LED blinking red.
Any ideas where to go from here are appreciated.
Rootk1t said:
you flashed recovery to boot. So only recovery exists in boot section.
Of course tablet won't boot afterwards, as there is not kernel.
Download custom rom you want to install, unpack boot.img from roms zip files and flash via "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Afterwards enter recovery and flash custom rom zip, gapps or whatever you need.

I tried this but flashing the boot.img does not change anything unfortunately.

You can reflash stock ROM via Flashtool v.0.9.18.6. or flash another boot.img to check if it boots or not.
Thank you, this worked for me.
Should have used the right twrp form the beginning. flash to boot works if it is the right version in my case scorpion_windy
