hi guys
i was just wondering if anyone can boot directly to twrp from your z5c with volume up on boot, or with an app?
The only way i can it to work is with fastboot "fastboot boot recovery.img"
I have ofc. used fastboot to install twrp... "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" Also tried with different versions of twrp. (2.7 and 3.0)
I cant get it to work and it really annoys me. I've tried with two different kernels : zombiekernel and androplus.
Anyone??

I can boot up just fine from a power off state and button mashing the volume up for about 5 seconds. I am on a stock kernal. If I'm not mistaken these custom kernels currently don't support custom recoveries,there's quite a few threads on this already.
thanks for the input mate!

Well today i flashed buttered toast's kernel today, i got a bootloop so to fix that i went on command and did fastboot to flash the stock kernel to fix the boot loop (i've done this before and worked) now what i did was mistakenly i don't even know what was going through my head, i flashed the stock kernel as my recovery. So i wrote "fastboot flash recovery boot.img" instead of "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and so i quickly realized that and did it again except the correct way this time. Realizing that my 4EXT recovery was erased so after successfully booting up my cell i noticed i had wifi error, so i figured ill flash stock kernel again from recovery after i go through "fastboot flash recovery cwm.img" and flash cwm. That did not work, my phone just reboots to system. I do not know what to do. I cant get wifi to download a 4EXt recovery or cwm and flash it through system, but how could i without wifi even if fastboot recovery won't work?

Fastboot boot cwm.img or what ever recovery img you have

Hello,
I am using Asus Zenfone 5 T100J. I have rooted my phone and run the TWRP 2.8.7.0 custom recovery in it. The Rom running the phone is Resurrection Remix 5.5.8. Today I tried to flash a custom kernel in my phone and accidentally typed "fastboot flash fastboot boot.img" instead of "fastboot flash boot boot.img" . yea I override the stock fastboot with a kernel! My mistake!!
Now the issue is that I cant access the fastboot. I can switch On the phone, use recovery (thanks to Advanced Reboot) and phone works fine. But cant use adb since there is NO fastboot.
There is no point in pressing Vol Up + Power since the actual fastboot may be corrupted, thanks to myself.
guys please help me get my droidboot back... I cant even sideload using TWRP (Device not detected when sideloading, otherwise device is visible). I badly want droidboot to flash using adb. Kindly help. Thanks in advance..
Hey guys,
I flashed the latest official 32.4.A.1.54 (german unbranded) version through flashtool. I now want to install a custom rom but Im suddenly running into problems.
Here is what I did in order:
- Flash official 32.4.A.1.54 via Sony mobile flasher (wiped everything)
- Reboot, go through setup and enable OEM unlocking and USB Debugging
- Check if bootloader is unlocked (it is)
- Flash Zach's Kernel for 7.1.1 through fastboot (fastboot flash boot <name>.img)
- Flash Latest TWRP (tried many many different versions) (fastboot flash recovery <name>.img)
I can not get TWRP to work. When trying to boot twrp through fasboot the screen just stays black and the LED keeps on glowing in blue. Flashing TWRP to boot results in an immediate reboot too.
When I start the phone I can see however that the kernel did succesfully flash.
What is happening here, how can I solve it?
Edit: After doing the same procedure for the third time I could suddenly boot into TWRP. I still can not install it though.
Have you tried booting TWRP by holding volume down on power on?
(fastboot flash recovery <name>.img)

flash twrp to the recovery partition, rather than boot
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

that is weird
When u are in command screen connect fastboot mode and enter this code fastboot boot recovery.img
If it doensnt restart end enter twrp it mean you should solve driver or flashtool version problem.
Hey guys.
SGP312 model here, unlocked bootloader.
not sure what i did wrong here - i got to Fastboot mode and the blue light is on, when i run "Fastboot devices" i get the device name.
so i followed the explanation here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...pment/ub-twrp-v3-2-1-xperia-tablet-z-t3735110
and did: "fastboot flash boot twrp-3.2.1-0-pollux_windy.img"
however, now my phone won't boot, and when i type "adb reboot recovery" i get "error: device not found" (even thought "Fastboot devices" gives me a response")
i tried fixing it with Flashtool, and everything works well until i get to "Wait for Flashmode" and im instructed to "unplug, power off, pres vol down, plug in USB cable" - this simply doesn't do anything =X
so.... how do i get out of this? all i want to do is install one of the newer roms from the forum (either Marshmallow or Oreo)
can anyone help me get out of this issue i've gotten myself into?

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.

enter recovery if it is installed and flash boot.img from there.

I did the same thing knowing the outcome and then successfully flashed Lineage.
For future reference, with the Xperia Tablet z where should I be flashing the recovery if not to boot:
"fastboot flash *What goes here?* twrp-3.x.x-0-pollux_windy.img"

Code:
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel
where twrp.img is your recovery image.
I have a problem that i never make it into recovery again. I am used to adb/fastboot, this is my 5th device and i happily used different custom roms as lineage, havoc, crdroid for about 7 years and thus am familiar with the concepts of a/b, recovery, adb/fastboot and so on.
Now, when i "flash_all" with stock from here (V10.3.17.0.PFQEUXM) on my a3, i suppose both slots a and b are overwritten with stock. interestingly this stock rom only boots in a-slot, not in b-slot.
when i now just "fastboot flash recovery twrp...." with 3.3.1.2 and hit the manual enter to recovery (power + vol up), i just get a "no command" error - no twrp in sight.
i also tried this with flash_all V11.0.2.0.QFQEUXM rom (a10) and fastboot flash recovery twrp 3.3.1-17 Q from mauronofrio - same result.
anyone knows what i did wrong?
basically i didnt enter team win recovery for some good amount of tries which slightly terrifies me at this point. (help)
Should i use the global versions instead of the europe ones? Do i need to use "fastboot flash BOOT twrp.." instead of "fastboot flash recovery twrp.."?
I am also happy for suggestions where i could pose this issue more appropriate.
//update: i am now in stock rom and could root it with flashing a magisked boot.img but still cannot enter twrp recovery (-> "no command").
Ya you entered the wrong command it's
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
When you boot to twrp make sure to flash stock boot.img of the firmware which you are currently running and then flash twrp installer.zip flash both of these in twrp and do not reboot between flashes
thanks @garylawwd

So to be sure: i have stock 11.0.3.0 europe from here installed and i am in slot a now and i cannot go into twrp because it says "no command".
i go to fastboot now, then
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
with a recent twrp that can run android 10 from here and then power + vol up without switching slots.

how can i flash a boot.img from twrp? i thought, i can only flash .zips from twrp? Also do i need to take spacial measures to be able to read internal memory in twrp?
//edit: i tried to flash named twrp but it wouldnt boot up into recovery, instead went straight into fastboot. so i flashed boot with stock boot again. no solution in sight.
Just FYI - "no command" is default welcome page of stock recovery. If you see it, you don't have TWRP installed.

Thank you. Still i would expect twrp to open.
Am i using a/b wrong? When i am on slot a and go into fastboot anf fastboot flash boot twrp.img, then i expect twrp to be installed in a, is that correct? Or is it always installed in the inactive slot and thus i had to switch to slot b before i install twrp to have it on a?

No idea with TWRP, never used it on this phone, Magisk is enough for me. But I would follow one of the available guides if you need to have TWRP installed.

Thanks @mysiak_d
I used for example this method with this recovery bc it should work with android 10.
straight into fastboot instead recovery :/
