Hi all I want to ask for your help on that and made a mistake when installing the application GooManager.
I happen to install the application on my tablet GooManager back to my current rom, but the problem that I have is that my tablet really has the lock fastboot, and for that reason I have been looking for other alternatives in order to install custom roms without losing the current rom.
But now I'm in serious trouble because Goomanager urge upon the OpenRecovery-also install TWRP-2.5.0.0-hws7300u.img. using OPENRECOVERYSCRIPT.
This worked perfectly and manages to do the installation, but the problem is that not good for my huawei tablet and did not start properly.
I have now a recovery.img which is the stock of the tablet, but as I have the fastboot lock, I can not install it with adb and other methods I found surfing the web, so I ask for your help, if I can I can show you how to install the stock recovery in a safe and transparent, you do not need that this unlock fastboot.
Or if I can use the OpenRecoveryScript GooManager Scrip somehow to not install the OpenRecovery-TWRP-2.5.0.0-hws7300u.img and achieves install my recovery.img which is what I want to use.
I have similar problem. Installed TWRP 2.5 but it's buggy, cannot complete data backup (hangs with reboot). I need to install a previous twrp version but can't use fastboot for practical reason and rom toolbox crash while starting to flash twrp 2.3 :|
any hint?
Question: goomanager is able to flash a recovery with tablet on and not via adb fastboot, so can we flash a recovery (twrp or stock) via terminal emulator? How?
used good old dd on /dev/block/mmcblk0p17 partition
How and where..
Working on my brothers mediapad.. he have installed twrp 2.3.2.3 and it cant flash either stock or any roms i tested with. it say faild.
So now i want back to stock rom and stock recovery. Or get this crap to work.
Any help.?
I have understood that it can be repaired but from linux, you have to press the button volume + and volume-for more than 30 seconds, this connected via USB and then get access to the 32 partitions mediapad there looking for the recovery.img and replace it by ready stock and fixed the problem.

how do you return from 10.1 cynogenmod the stock rom?
Sorry for my bad English.
I have a Kindle Fire HDX 7". It had recovery TWRP 2.8, ROM HDX Nexus 4.05 (Kitkat 4.4).
Yesterday, I was up the TWRP to version v3.0.3-1 and up ROM to LineageOS. But the ROM isn't suitable for me so I roll back to ROM HDX Nexus 4.0.5.
I go to recovery mode, factory reset and install the ROM but It's say the vesion of TWRP is newer so TWRP can't install ROM. So I install the TWRP version v3.0.0-1 and reboot to the recovery.
But It stuck at gray logo and I can't boot to Recovery. I can't boot to OS because of factory reset, it's a black screen after kindle fire logo shown.
Help me please!

Ok to boot to TWRP download the twrp img file from XDA and put in your adb directory and type fastboot boot nameofimg.img it may not work the first time but it'll work second time.
You have to boot in fastboot and Flash a working Image of TWRP to your recovery partition

You can also boot TWRP from fastboot ready as noted by the previous poster.
So do I need to downgrade or what? How do I root kindle fire os 5.3.3.0? My kindle fire is hd 6 4th gen
Yep. There's a thread around here somewhere outlining the process. The basics are: Set up ADB on Kindle and PC. Sideload Fire OS 4.5.3 to your Kindle via ADB. Block OTA updates. Root via your preferred method. Install TWRP. Use TWRP to flash 5.3.3.0 bootloader and ROM back to your Kindle. Done.
I know it's a pain in the arse to go through all that, and in the end you don't even get to keep TWRP, but as far as I know it's the only possible way to get root on the HD 6 and 7 4th gen right now. At least until Kingroot is updated.
You can't flash twrp right after flashing 5.3.3.0? Or will the kindle not boot?

No. Your Kindle would still boot, you just wouldn't have a recovery anymore. For whatever reason TWRP doesn't play well with bootloaders above 4.5.x. So if you were to flash TWRP in 5.x, you overwrite the stock recovery. Upon reboot, TWRP won't work since you have 5.x bootloaders, and your stock recovery is gone since it was overwritten by TWRP. So you're in the nasty situation of having no recovery and no way to get one back.
Somewhere in the rooting thread there is mention of an automated script that will flash 4.5 bootloaders for you and then boot into TWRP. Once you're done just flash your 5.x bootloaders back and reboot. Not a permanent fix, but at least it's all done on the Kindle itself (no need for a PC once it's set up) and there's no chance of ending up without a recovery since TWRP is ran in memory and not flashed so your stock recovery stays intact.
There's a detailed tutorial that I've updated and simplified for 5.3.3.0 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72466867&postcount=540
Hi all, sorry to jump in here, but does Fire HD 6 have OTG support for flash drive?
My fire hdx 8.9 is unlocked and was installed with cm 13 rom. I wanted to flash the same cm 13 again, so I wiped data. After that, ALL roms I tried to install was ERROR 7.
I heard that this is due to an error recovery, so I tried to install a new one by ADB. However, I installed a wrong thor one, and now I can't use the touch screen even if I install an Apollo one.
To make matter worse, it is also ERROR 7 whatever I try to install. So what should I do? THX a million!

- place device in fastboot mode via <power>+<vol-down>
- connect cable; look for ready prompt on device (if not check drivers)
- grab TWRP build 3.0.0-1 from this thread (that build - NOT the latest)
- use fastboot command in OP of above thread to install TWRP
Hello, I have a rooted Kindle with Safestrap 4.01 (TWRP v2.7.1.0) and Android 4.4.4 (KitKat). I did that some time ago.
Now I want to update Android 4.4.4 to Android 6 or higher to run some apps on it.
I tried it with Lineage 14.1 Thor.
I wiped the device in Safestrap, installed the new firmware lineage-14.1-20200705-UNOFFICIAL-thor.zip, wiped Dalvik after it was done flashing and rebooted.
I also tried it with other Lineage versions but after rebooting it's only showing a black screen for 20+ minutes (the only one that seemed to work was Lineage 11 but it didn't update my Android version).
Am I doing something wrong? Maybe I go about it totally wrong but all tutorials tell me that's the way to go.
EDIT:
I almost bricked my system twice and I think I found the culprit. It might be Safestraps fault.
Now I'm trying to get a twrp recovery mode update but the fastboot mode doesn't let me use .img files
(doesn't recognize any devices and I already manually updated my Android ADB Interface driver a few dozen times but it still won't work - still a question mark above the device).
Is there a twrp zip file which I can use to install from Safestrap?
