Hello all,
i have the THL W200S and i replaced my recovery file and since then each time i try to access the recovery menu the device simply restart itself to normal operation.
i have tried to switch recoveries with no help.
is there anything more i can do?
i am doing it because i want to fix the LED notification problem and to install a new rom
thanks
have you unlocked the bootloader?
it seems that you haven't unlocked the bootloader yet... you first need to install your android recovery which is default recovery. then unlock the bootloader. you will surely be able to open your custom recovery. hit thanks if you find it was helpful

Hi
I am a noob when it comes to android but i have managed to get root access on my device and i have installed CWM recovery, my question is how do i now install a custom rom, my device is bootloader unlock allowed No, so i am aware that the kernel can not be modified and this will limit the roms that can be installed, but after hours of searching i have found a hand full of roms that say they will work with locked boot loaders but stop the phone booting. am i installing them wrong?
Thanks
Josh
You can only flash Roms with locked bootloader, like modded Originalfirmwares, you download it copy it on SD Card and go in CWM flash the Rom and then do a whipe and restart and enjoy

I'm not as knowledgeable as the devs here, but you could try unrooting and then unlocking the bootloader?
Unrooting has nothing to do with it. Have you tried this?

Did you root with Kingroot?

Hi, I am using P600 (note 10.1 2014 Wifi) XAR one
Yesterday I was trying to install magisk all day, but failed all
When I rooted device and instaled TWRP, in TWRP it made error number 1 and it says something like turn to stock boot, so I tried to reinstall stock firmware via Odin, but it didn’t change anything.
I guess it’s a problem with boot.img or the autoroot method I used.
So I tried to use fastboot to install TWRP without rooting, but this time it didn’t boot into bootloader from fastboot, it just restarted the tablet all the time.
So I tried to manually reboot into the download mode, but fastboot didn’t recognize the device then.
When I did it, I turnned on the USB debugging with no mistake since it’s just samsung.
So I booted into recovery mode(It can go into recovery mode without problem)
Then tried option “reboot to boorloader” and it just restarts the tablet again.
I guess something corrupted boot.img or bootloader somehow, while I was rooting or something.
Can I get factory boot.img and solve it? Or when I install stock firmware via Odin does it also fix boot.img and boot loader?
I tried to install stock firmwares and factory reset several times. It didn’t help anything. It did unroot or turn the recovery to stock recovery, but couldn’t get into bootloader.
Can anyone please help me or give me advice to solve this problem?

Flash fastboot rom with clean+lock. Then boot your device and set up. Then unlock it
Are you suggesting him to flash a complete new rom which might cause loss of data
Hi, today I was more than seven hours on PCr and tried this....unsuccessfully... I'm really desperate
I have:
-Xperia Z2 (D6503)
-Android 6.0.1
-newest firmware 23.5.A.1.291
-UNlocked bootloader
I am trying to install root, twrp recovery and custom ROM ( specifically this ROM ). But i cannot enter to the recovery mode...
Official twrp-3.0.2-0 succesfully flashed in fastboot but when i try command "fastboot reboot recovery" the mobile only load android and turns on normally... the combination hardware buttons also do not work.
The next question is, What is a kernel ? I have successfully installed this kernel .... Could this be the reason why I can't load the recover mode?
Please help me, I don't know what to do anymore :crying: all I want is root and custom rom
EDIT: okay, i successfully root phone and finally i have access to recovery mode (TWRP 3.0.2-0) by THIS TUTORIAL now i need help with installing the custom ROM step-by-step because if I turn something wrong and phone will be bricked again, I guess I'll kill myself xD so What is next step for install custom ROM please ? Can I just download THIS, install the zip in TWRP and that´s all ???
Yup you can install it by recovery steps:

before you do this you should backup all your important data
1-wipe data factory reset
2- wipe cache
3- install zip rom
4- download google apps and install it by recovery it should be a zip file
5-repot system and enjoy
the recovery is like twrp or cwm it's not a kernel
there is 2 type of kernel :
1-kernel itself
2-kernel with merged recovery
about the kernel and recovery, there is deference the kernel is very important for system to work it connects between the hardware and the software and every operating system has its own kernel but here in android they sometimes merge kernel with recovery but when you flash-kernel or recovery every one replace each other be careful and know that, don't worry you won't brick something in the near future when you will install custom ROMs you will notice that.
if you need any help you can ask me
