Nexus 5 wont start at all

Hi. I have unlocked my Nexus 5 bootloader. I had twrp recovery 3.0.0.3 installed. From trwp I had installed LineageOS 14.1 and the build was from July 2017. Today I tried to update to 24.10.2017 build of LineageOS 14.1. When flashing from twrp I got error "zip verification failed". I thought that the problem was my recovery so I went to update it. Update was done from Official TWRP Manager (android app). From there I downloaded the newest version 3.1.1.0 and flashed it to recovery with the app. After that I went back to LineageOS updater and selected the 24.10.2017 build and pressed update. Phone restarted but this time it didnt get me to twrp recovery. Instead I got into the screen you normally go when you press power + vol up + vol down. This screen included restart bootloader, boot to recovery, power off and start. Now my phone wont start at all anymore and I cant get into twrp recovery. Something went wrong with flashing straight from android app. Can somebody help and tell me what to do to get my phone up and running again?

I managed to flash with windows command line the new build of twrp recovery to my phone and it started to twrp recovery. In twrp recovery the phone tried to install the latest version of lineage (24.10.2017). The installation failed again. Do I need to take of the zip verification or something to get through this update?

Sony z2 can't access twrp or any kind of recovery mode that was installed

Hello,
I have a sony z2 D6503 android 6.0.1 (flash the 6.0.1 so i can force it to update) bootloader unlocked and previusly install xzdualrecovery (for the 6.0.1 force update),
now the after i year from when i install the 6.0.1 i didn't need to access recovery mode, until 1 week ago when i wanted to flash with resurrection remix 7.1.2 nougat, so i try first to access to twrp by hardware button, nothing happen (neither the led notification light turn pink so i can't access to recovery).
Then i try to flash again twrp or any different recovery from adb, and i try again either from adb and manually to access to recovery, and nothing again.
So i install kingroot, root the phone and use quick boot or other app so i can access to recovery from them, and nothing again.
So after that i factory reset the phone (to 6.0.1 because is the only available on my phone since the time that i flash it) and did again evey single step that i mention before.
I read every thread, post forum for everything, adb problem , bootloader, twrp, recovery and other but neither of them help.
In the end i was force to open a thread here so maybe you can help me.
Phone info: SONY Z2 D6503 android 6.0.1 build: 23.5.A.0.570

Flash elite kernel version 3(it is important that it should be version 3) it gas a built-in recovery and it is compatible with stock based rom
And if you want to flash RR rom you should flash boot.img from rom zip and provided recovery in dsired fourm

My z5 compact don't start after installing TWRP

Hello,
I tried this morning to install a custom ROM for my sony xperia z5 compact. Unfortunately, it remains crashing on the "Sony" screen
I unlocked the bootloader via the official link https://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/. Until then no worries, everything worked well.
Then I wanted to install a TWRP recovery via this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/twrp-3-1-0-z5-z5c-z5p-t3571050
I was able to flash it without worries but when restarting, TWRP asked me if I wanted to install the app, I put OK and from there, impossible to start my phone. "always stuck on Sony screen".
this is my config : E5823 / 32.4.A.1.54
I want just to start my phone. Is there possible to put a stock version? thanks
This is very urgent to resolve it unfortunately
Thanks for your help
you can close this subject, problem solved. Thanks
Wanna share how you fixed it?
Yes sure,
I flashed my recovery with the TWRP 3.1.1 posted before with the command "fastboot flash recovery {name_of_file.bin}" and I did a flash of the boot with the good version of boot with the commande "fastboot flash boot {name_of_file.bin}.
I founded the good boot at this address for my version : https://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/general/32-4-1-54-coming-t3685995

Cant touch or Swipe in TWRP 2.8.7.0

Dear everybody.
My phone is Sony Xperia Z Ultra C6802,
Android 5.1.1
Build Nuber : 14.6.A.1.236
One day i want to flash a custom recovery for my Z Ultra amd replace Stock recovery. So I unlocked bootloader and then flash TWRP recovery using adb. I choose TWRP 2.8.7 .0 and after flash complete, i reboot device and enter recovery mode. BUT when TWRP main screen appear, I cant touch or swipe or do any thing on screen. I guest that have something related to new touch drive or something like that. So i try some other TWRP version such as V3.0 or some lower version. But second problem is I cant override TWRP 2.8.7. Althought in adb screen notice that the process successfull. I using "fastboot clear recovery" command and then "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img". All process done successfully but when enter the recovery mode, TWRP 2.8.7 still there like a charm without touch or swipe (lol).
So anyone can support me for this :
1. Why i cant touch in TWRP screen, what i have to do now
2. Why i cant flash other version of TWRP to override current version (TWRP 2.8.7.0)
My phone is Sony Xperia Z Ultra C6802,
Android 5.1.1
Build Nuber : 14.6.A.1.236

How to install TWRP when i have Lineage OS on Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra

Hay,
I have problem with twrp. I flashed it and flash lineage os with gapps but then before reboot i had an alert that "no os installed" Afted reboot i had problem to open twrp but when i did it i had this alert again. so i leave it and after some hours i flashed one more time lineage os but without gapps because still was alert but after reboot the lineage OS started. Now when i want to open recovery mode to twrp i see only recovery mode from lineage and i do not know how to install now twrp Can anyone help me? I am learning this still :3
I had same problem with not being able to permanantely install TWRP on my XA2 Ultra with LineageOs16.
All I found out with google is that because the XA2 Ultra is A/B slot based, you need to temporarily boot the twrp image and then install the twrp zip file via the temporary twrp recovery.
BUT......I cannot find a seperate twrp zip file for the XA2 Ultra!!!!
So i am left with just having to temporarily boot into the twrp image when i want to use it!!! that sucks!!
If anyone has any solutions to permanantly install TWRP for the Xperia XA2 Ultra, then please advise...
Thanks to all,
Jake
