hi
im flash cynagen mod 12 by twrp recovery but when the phone up recovery is changed to cyanogen and dont work very good for ex dont work for install any things... i flash zombie kernel by flash tool but dont change my recovery !.... what to do change my custom recovery to philiz or twrp or.... ?
If youre trying toflash another rom or restore a backup You can hotboot doom kernel by placing the boot img in your adb area open command prompt and place phone in fastbootmode (hold vol up and connect usb to pc) type fastboot devices then enter in command prompt then type fastboot boot boot.img...as the phone boots remember to hold vol down when you see purple led otherwise you might have to repeat the process!!!

After hotbooting doom kernael ,how to get TWRP recovery in 5.0 ROMs
recovery Problem
I have the same Problem( but my phone is xperia z) but it only appears automaticly in lollipop . and i can't change in lollipo ,on KitKat Roms it works fine. I really don't get it how this works .i flashed to stock then i flashed a aosbam Rom (KitKat) ,after that I flashed the lightning kernel. On kit kat i habe twrp but as soon flash a lollipop Rom it becomes a useless
Cyanogen recovery.All this started after I installed a APP in lollipop to getrecovery because it disapeared in validus rom ( lollipop).
Sorry that i ask for help in this thread but it's the only one i could find which is active.
You can use Rashr to replace recovery in current kernel image on the go. I use it all the time to get TWRP - works perfectly. Can backup kernel image before modifying.
You can flash Philz, TWRP (any version, incl. 2.8.5.0) or any other recovery image from sdcard with it on top of AOSP kernel.

I have a recent CM12 nightly installed on my Z Ultra and would like to get rid of the built in CM Recovery and flash TWRP. Will the app Rashr flash the TWRP img successfully, without any further modifications - change of kernel etc?
Thank you.

Yes, this is how I do. Just run Rashr on fresh CM12 installation with stock kernel and CM recovery--and get TWRP with stock kernel.
BTW, I don't know if TWRP will be overwritten after flashing a new CM nightly, didn't try yet. So maybe you'll have to run Rashr after every CM update.

During boot, wait until device vibrates and hold vol down until you see TWRP logo.

Device information:
Xperia Z Ultra
Cyanogenmod 11 M12 (togari from offical cm side)
Smartphone is encrypted
Bootloader unlocked
Nothing else changed (kernel etc.)
Hi,
since a few hours i try to get TWRP 2.8.5.0 to work.
After installing it according the offical description and rebooting into the recovery, my z ultra only shows the Sony logo and doesn´t do anything (it took me some time to figure out how to turn it off... Power + vol up).
To get the cm cwm back, i´ve used fastboot to flash boot.img.
The integrated cwm can´t mount the encrypted data partition and is useless for me. To avoid problems on my heavily used z ultra, i tried TWRP first on my old (encrypted) Nexus 7 (2012) tablet, works like a charm and most important, it doesn´t have any problems with encrypted devices.
The installation on the Nexus 7 was not really mentionable, fastboot flash recovery file.img, that´s it.
The Z Ultra is different, the teamwin page says :
Download the above file. Copy the file to /sdcard/fotakernel.img and run the following commands using terminal emulator or in adb shell:
su
dd if=/sdcard/fotakernel.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
It won´t work, the above mentioned problem is the result.
Maybe i need a custom kernel, any suggestions?
Thanks for your help.
CM kernel probably doesnt allow to flash other kernel than it has (cwm). Flash great devs kernel and than twrp. I have it (at least multi rom 2.8.4 one) and it works.
However after screen off it reboots and i dont know what cause it
Thanks for your answear, i try it next weekend.
Code:
Rom: Resurrection Remix® Lollipop v5.3.6 - Togari
Kernel: from rom
Recovery: Dunno where it came from? Perhaps when flashing Candy5 Beta.
Im kind off in the same position, recovery says
Code:
E: Cannot load volume /misc
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update package...
Package is for device: ...[B][I]bla bla bla you get the thing[/I][/B]
E: failed to install /sideload/package.zip
E: Please take note of ..[B][I]bla bla bla[/I][/B]
Installation aborted.
E: Cannot load volume /misc!
When trying to flash any zip file. When the flash starts I see something like "verification failed" flashing by really quick .....I guess the verify is active which is causing this issue?
BUT this damn recovery has no damn setting to change that! Probably possible to modify some config.txt manually.
Is it possible to change recovery somehow from CM recovery?
I tried by flashing great devs with fastboot. Then it says finished but the same recovery is still present...
Sorry for ranting a bit ..I'm in the middle of some other projects going on with BSD but this one is driving me nuts :silly: I just want to flash TWRP on my device It should not be this difficult
My advice for you is to flash boot.img from resurrection remix - its great devs kernel v2 with twrp - or zombie kernel for 5.0 which has built in twrp.
Both can be flashed using fastboot, so u dont need working recovery for it and they both should work with all 5.0 roms except gpe one.
Im not sure what versions of recovery they have built in, but after that u can flash multirom zip, which has 2.8.4.x one (with mutirom support ofc,but its just addition for "stock" functions it has). I dont think u can use official twrp 2.8.5.0 with nonstock kernel as i tried to flash it to recovery partition and fotakernel and always it doesnt boot (recovery, rom and kernel worked fine, just after pressing vol+, vol- or power when purple light comes up, it changes to yellow and stay like this till i forced reboot).
I tried it with Great Devs KK (v1 + AICP 7.0l) and LP (v2 + RR or AICP 8.0 unofficial build), built in kernel in AICP 8.0 unofficial and Validus.
MultiROM twrp works fine with GD v1 and v2

....well im stuck. I have tried everything. Even hotbooting. That damn CM recovery is there no matter what!
I'm gonna give it a try tomorrow and start on zero. Either flash a stock rom with flashtool or scrubber port which is not based on cm.
I'll report later with some results
Mybe try to:
- dl your rom and zombie or gd
- open ur roms zip with ie 7zip
- delete boot.img
- unpack kernels zip and move boot.img to roms zip
- copy new zip to device
- flash stock
- flash kernel (zombie or gd)
- using built in recovery (should be twrp( flash roms zip
As there will be built in kernel with twrp it should stay after reboot.
If not do it again but before reboot in the and flash multirom zip

Solved the issue.
First I Downloaded
STOCK ROM] [FTF] Xperia Z Ultra 6833 14.4.A.0.118 "SRF FR".
GoogleDrive: Download FTF
Thanks to @dandyqb

Click to collapse
And Flashtool 9.18.5
But I got stuck with Flashtool prompting me to move content from C:\flashtool\firmwares C:\users\admin\.flashtool/firmwares (??)
Abandoned flashtool and downloaded Flashtool 9.16.1 instead. But this time I hit another issue.
Code:
Flashing system bla bla bla.
Abort..
Error..
Device connected in Flashmode.
Grrrrr..!!
Abandoned the FTF file and downloaded
STOCK ROM] [FTF] Xperia Z Ultra 6833 14.4.A.0.118 "VodaFone UK".
mediafire: Download FTF
Thanks to @Feodorus 4PDA

This time it worked out. Flashtool read the FTF and pushed it to the device as it should.
Booted device and transfered files to my device
Code:
cm-Resurrection_Remix_LP_v5.3.6-20150221-togari.zip
gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip
MultiROM-v30x-180115-UNOFFICIAL-togari.zip
I did the rest manually. Downloaded and opened [email protected]_LRX21P.S3.4201_by_Scrubber.
Took out the file "For_ALL_ZU_5.0_Scrubb_GPE_kernel_initD.img"
Renamed file and flashed it with
Code:
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Booted into recovery and flashed
Code:
cm-Resurrection_Remix_LP_v5.3.6-20150221-togari.zip
gapps-lp-20141109-signed.zip
MultiROM-v30x-180115-UNOFFICIAL-togari.zip
Turned off device. Booted into Fastboot mode
Renamed "TWRP_multirom-togari_20150201-00.img" to "recovery"
Flashed file with
Code:
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot reboot
Wooh.. And I reached a very unfamiliar place named Multirom upon boot saying Auto-boot! :good::laugh:
Glad u made it. It strange that u need steps with gpe port, but maybe some devices are different
Multirom lets u boot more than one rom. Its like grub on pc, so its good thing, but take 5-6 secs of additional booting time
And flash older version of flashtool (eg. 0.9.18.2), if u want to keepfirmwares in flashtool/firmwares folder. Devs change somethin and people like me with small system partition or ssd drive, which has limited space will have problems if it keeps that way (or well need to stay with older verions)

I didn't really need scrubbers kernel. I just used it to flash a recovery on to my device as I came from stock rom after flashing the FTF.
Just kind of a "safety first" step instead of jumping right onto flashing the multirom .img file and not knowing if its gonna boot or not. :silly:
Scrubbers gpe port was just the first rom that popped up in my head so its why I used it.
You can use Rashr to replace recovery in current kernel image on the go. I use it all the time to get TWRP - works perfectly. Can backup kernel image before modifying.
You can flash Philz, TWRP (any version, incl. 2.8.5.0) or any other recovery image from sdcard with it on top of AOSP kernel.

What kernel are u using? Im on GreatDevs and after flashing 2.8.5.0 it doesnt boot. I mean its flashed, but after reboot when i press vol+/- like i do with twrp 2.8.4 (multirom one)or before did with cwm it freezes on kernel logo (led color changes from purple to yellow)

If this question is for me, I use official CM12.
Its in my forum and tapatalk signatures - Great Devs, KK one.
So maybe its it and cm11 kernel (or only GD) doesnt support 2.8.5+ ??
I can live with 2.8.4 for now (till I move to LP)

I have tried this app. And other similar apps I could find on play store. They did not work.
The output in this app showed that it successfully replaced recovery but on reboot CM recovery was still present.

Sometimes booting recovery doesn't work...You will have to flash it. Perhaps you can flash the stock recovery after successful root? though i am not sure that will work
Also try booting into CWM
Tried the same method with CWM.img
Same result: fastboot frozen (volume buttons not responsive, and PC no longer sends commands)
To flash the stock recovery I would need to back it up first
But guess what's needed to backup ?
Yes, a temporary flashed bootloader with ZIP support
Would you know someone, who knows someone, who knows an master from MTI or Hogwarts or Narnia that knows an alternative ?
I would flash a mod right away if I could backup the original first...
(Unless, as I don't know exactly how this works, the ROM might come with the bootloader (?) Because the stock ROM I can download easily anywhere (already did))

Hi,
Did you managed it to work? I have exactly the same problem. If I even flash twrp or cwm I still can't boot into it, there is only "no command" message.
I can't get any help anywhere, it makes me crazy. Do you have any custom recovery that worked for you after flashing?? I'm even starting to think that my device is broken somehow.

I did NOT flash the recovery yet
I'm trying to run the recovery without flashing it, to avoid problems like yours
You said you flashed both CWM and TWRP ?
And Neither one of them worked ?
I'm screwed too, then...
:crying:
See if you can find the stock recovery somewhere
And NOT here
This forum is not good for it
It's too much phone specific... too narrow... and we get no attention; specially with our "not-mainstream" phone
Generic instruction could work
If you take any action, or find any forum you find helpful, let me know

I too have tried booting the recovery ,but it doesn't work. You will have to flash it
if you are seeing 'no command' message it means that you still have stock recovery and the custom recovery wasn't flashed successfully.

None of them worked. I'm going to resign, because there is nothing I can do. Seems you have exactly the same problem as me. What I tried:
- fastboot boot recovery.img. Phone hangs on bootlogo
- flash recovery, then use go to recovery option in fastboot menu. In this case, 2 possibilities: with usb cable connected, it boots normally to system, not to recovery. With usb cable disconnected, screen goes black and phone looks like powered off. You will need to power it on and it will boot to system.
- On running system with usb debugging enabled. If you type "adb reboot recovery", you will end with dead robot and "no command" error. You can however press VolUP +Power on this screen and you will see Android 3e recovery.
If you have the same problem as me, you are completly lost and it's impossible to intall recovery on your device. I'm close to resign and say "**** this ****ty phone" because (as you already mentioned), there is no any attention on my questions, twrp support was dropped long time ago etc.
Flashing recovery should not wipe your data, so once you try to flash twrp or cwm, please let me know about your results. I'm sure I will never able to solve this problem, but I will feel better knowing that I'm not alone whit it

Ok, I'm finished. It's not possible. F U C K Motorola and good night. My advice: don't waste your time if you have the same problem. You will get nothing, except wasted time. It's good that it's not my phone (I own OnePlus One). But I was asked to install CM12.1 on my friend's phone. It's impossible, so I will need to tell him I was failed with that.

I see people complaining about bugs or not-working features on the first link
Are you sure it's safe ?
It's not the official TWRP (apparently)
When I google for this bootloader the official page shows version 2.7.1.0
Whereas on your second link they are on the 2.8.2.0
Which one should I trust ?
And to anyone who might answer:
Trough PC is the only/safest way to flash these recoveries ?
Seeing giaur on that situation puts me stepping back...

I tested both: latest official 2.7 and linked 2.8. So they are safe. Official support for Moto E was dropped long time ago.

Cool
Regarding to safety
Should I flash CWM or TWRP ? Why ?
Regarding the method
Flash through usb->Fastboot or through Apk (like CWM)
Or a third method ?
And why
Between TWRP 2.7 and 2.8, which one is safer ?
And of course...why ?
And a last question, before I leave you guys alone:
Did you manage to root the phone, despite the poblems occurring to you, giaur ?
Once you succesfuly flash twrp, you need to flash supersu then and you are rooted. If you don't have your current system rooted, the only way to flash custom recovery is to flash via fastboot. TWRP is recommended, because it's way better
I can't say anything more, because my moto e is not flashable, so I can't replace stock recovery.
Yo !
Flashed TWRP
But wiped things I shouldnt
How to put the ROM back via USB ?
EDIT:
NEVERMIND
Found how to use SD to do that

I was also struggling a lot many days into getting twrp and cw loaded on to a Moto E. The problem was that I was pressing the Power button to activate the recovery menu and that will not activate the recovery option. You got to press the UP button instead of power after executing
Code:
fastboot.exe flash recovery twrp-2.8.1.0-condor.img
. This is quite counter intuitive but described well in most posts, but as experts we assume up button is to go up the menu.

My issue is really complicated and I believe its my phone manufacturer issue.
I've been trying to unlock my lollipop 5.1 phone in order to flash custom recovery using "fastboot oem unlock" and I got to the phase where I'm to continue with volume up or decline with volume down but none of those buttons are working in that mode. This is the same with stock recovery, those keys don't work either. Do you have any suggestions.

There's no need unlocking it, just flash the recovery with spFlashTool software. There are guides on using the tool on the net.

can you remember how do you install it, especially after flashing the recovery as I can't enter the recovery mode (vol up + power) after flashing but the device boot normally then I use adb reboot recovery to boot to recovery and I think it could be a part of the problem (as in Samsung I should remove the battery and boot to recovery)
use the latest sp flashtool to flash it. Boot to recovery using volume up + power.... where did u get your previous recovery from?

various websites,I will try the one you linked :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:
I currently have this problem that when I flash a version of TWRP(have tried both 3.0.2 and 3.1.0) I cannot reboot my current OS(have tried both stock 376 and 378). Simply pressing the power button will result in recovery mode. Stranger still, when i flashed a ROM as a zip out of twrp, it actually booted up, but then I could no longer return to recovery mode, despite fiddling around mith multiple button combinations.
Seems as though i am missing something obvious, as i have not found a thread regarding a similar issue. Anybody have a clue as to what it might be?

it seems like u dint have an proper boot.img
try flashing ftf
I've been flashing the stock firmware(s) as ftf using flashtool (newest version) and xperifirm, that's why I think it's so odd. Before flashing TWRP, the stock ROM boots up and everything works as it should. After flashing TWRP, it only boots up into recovery.

Yes, I've been flashing kernels with that fix.
I managed to get stock 378 DE running using only flashtool with jutphaas' boot.img of this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/32-3-0-378-pushed-xperifirm-t3559906/page4
I've also had 376 DE and 376 AU firmware working with this ROM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/development/rom-stock-z5c32-3-0-376r2dau-t3570248
In this case I was able to flash the ROM .zip out of TWRP and boot into the ROM. Afterwards I could no longer enter TWRP though.
In both cases, after (re)flashing TWRP, I'd get stuck in recovery.

To me it seems like you are just flashing twrp to the wrong partition.
How do you flash it?
You have to flash it with command:
Fastboot flash recovery "twrp.img"

oh hai
just wanted to link you in on this:

Hey fellas, I'm back. Excuse my absence, currently busy with exams.
It seems as though @Gewiz was correct. I was trying to flash twrp over "Flashtool>fastboot mode>select kernel to flash", which probably targets the wrong partition. Instead I now used "Flashtool>fastboot mode>reboot into fastboot mode via fastboot" and flashed it using the standard cmd window line ("fastboot flash recovery twrp.img") and it seems to have worked.
Thanks to everyone on this thread!

Have you tried to do a restore yet?
Just wanted to ask so I can isolate twrp with rootkernel
Official TWRP is now available: https://twrp.me/asus/zenfone9.html
IMPORTANT NOTES:
CleanSlate custom kernel is not currently compatible with TWRP for this device (Kirisakura is compatible as of v2.0.6).
This device has a recovery partition (2, in fact), and fastboot boot is disabled in the bootloader. Flashing TWRP to the recovery partition is the only way to use it.
If you attempt to fastboot boot the TWRP image, your device may end up unbootable. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.
Any questions, comments, feedback, or concerns should always be accompanied by logs (recovery log, logcat, dmesg)
TWRP Trees
Common: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_asus_sm84xx-common
Device: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_asus_AI2202
Thanks for your work!
Installed as on twrp.me described wont boot (https://twrp.me/asus/zenfone9.html)
Had to flash stock recovery again.
Rooted device on 32.2050.2050.29 with kirisakura-kernel.
Any idea what im doing wrong?

If you're not on stock kernel, then that's probably the problem. I know the custom kernel situation is different on this device than previous ones. This may be something that @Freak07 & I have to look into together. In the meantime, can you restore back to stock kernel and confirm that TWRP works, and then install Kirisakura and see if everything still works?
Restored stock kernel with kernelflasher but now it wont boot. Tried to change the slot to a but isnt allowed in fastboot.
Have to find out now how to change the slot or install stock kernel via fastboot...

It doesn't sound like you followed the procedure in the Kirisakura thread FAQ to fully return to stock. Can you confirm exactly what you did?
just restored the backup i made with kernelflasher befor i installed the custom kernel and rebooted.

I'm not familiar with that app, sorry. I just know that's not the process mentioned in his thread, so until you do that, I can't really confirm what the problem could be.
ok, im back on stock. flashing following files helped. i will test twrp again later and report. thanks for your replies.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flash vendor_dlkm vendor_dlkm.img
fastboot reboot
With stock kernel twrp works. Just installed as described on twrp.me. The official twrp app from playstore crashes after root allowing.
For everyone who comes from custom kernel flash the files from your actual firmware (payload-dumper) as described in the post above.
Are you working on custom kernel support?

From stock, I just flashed the Kirisakura zip in TWRP and my device booted up fine.
EDIT: While the above is true, TWRP no longer functions after installing the kernel, and the device won't reboot again after installing it. So something is definitely wrong somewhere.
For now, I can only suggest not using it with a custom kernel until we figure this out.
Ok, flashing with EXKernelManager works also.
update
I can do reboots but twrp doesnt work anymore

Yes, there seems to be an issue in the kernel that's preventing TWRP from working. I'm not sure what the issue is, unfortunately.
So every time I restore a back up, do I have to delete all lock screen requirements ?
If that's the case, I would have to redo my fingerprints every time

Yes.
Quick PSA for anyone using this TWRP that also wants to use a custom kernel:
As of Kirisakura 2.0.6, the custom kernel and TWRP can now co-exist. This is due to the changes that allowed a monolithic kernel build. Presently, CleanSlate has not adopted those changes, but if/when it does, I will remove that disclaimer from the OP.
Thanks to @arter97, @Freak07, & @tbalden for supporting this device!
Is the twrp compatible with android 13?
