After reflash from 11.2.5.26 to 10.12.3.130 (yes, downgrade) phone stucks on logo. Recovery also doesn't boot - phone goes into fastboot. On try to flash boot or recovery I have:
Code:
D:\Soft\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>fastboot flash boot D:\ASUS\boot.img
target reported max download size of 1879048192 bytes
sending 'boot' (8052 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.270s]
writing 'boot'...
FAILED (remote: Security is Enable, close 'flash' function !!)
finished. total time: 0.291s
On try to boot from image I have:
Code:
D:\Soft\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>fastboot boot D:\ASUS\XDA\TWRP.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.398s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: dtb not found)
finished. total time: 0.527s
Phone starts to boot with boot.img image from 10.12.3.130 but stucks like in ordinary boot.
Tried to boot from TWRP images for other phones - on old images there's no error but phone stucks. With new images - same error with dtb. As I see, I need recovery from JB version, but I can't find it not among stock on asus.com, nor TWRP or CWM. Another way is to unlock partitions, but I can't find, how I can do this too.
I'll be grateful for any help.
Hello and welcome to XDA Q&A section of the Forums.
I suggest you try to format "boot" and then re-flashing it. Do so by typing "fastboot erase boot", then follow standard procedures for flashing boot. You can even try doing so with the recovery partition and see what happens (I suggest you do this before erasing your boot).
If I helped, hit "thanks" .

Thanks. I didn't write it, but I already erased recovery and then boot and then tried to reflash them in order. No difference, still "Security is Enable, close 'flash' function".

Hello guys,
I just rooted my HTC explorer for the first time. I was following this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415223
Everything was working fine until after installing the recovery.
After copying the superuser.zip to the SD and rebooting to bootloader menu, I click recovery and just get stuck on a HTC green logo.
If i take the battery out, I power back the phone and it works fine.
If i try to enter bootloader menu, and enter recovery, i get stuck again at that screen.
In the menu my phone appears as "unlock" so i supposes all steps before were fine..
If you guys could help it would be immensely appreciated!
apparently this is something that happened to many users but i couldn't find a straight answer on how to solve it!

try installing clockword mod recovery
make sure that USB debugging is selected on ur phone, after that
goto fastboot and connect ur phone to USB
and flash it using command
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname
or alternatively if ur phone is running fine:
then install ROM Manager and from there u can flash recovery to ur mobile
Hi.
After I've tried to install a custom rom, I've done a very big mistake. Now I can't boot the tab, and if I try to go in recovery or wipe data through fastboot i get the fatally error "unrecoverable bootloader error 0x00000000". I haven't any nvflash backup and have the JB bootloader (10.6.1.8). The only thing that works are the APX mode and the fastboot. I'm feeling a very idiot because i bought it yesterday.
Now, what can I do? Dump it and f**k myself? :crying:
Sorry for my bad english, thank you for your help.
I realized I'm screwed. But I've tried something...
When I go run the fastboot mode and delete a partition, for example:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
works, and after I can run other command. But if I use:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
seems it works, in fact the output is
Code:
sending 'recovery' (5378 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.431s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.739s]
finished. total time: 4.170s
but it's stucked and I need to reboot manually.
Any idea?

I have the same. Im on an ICS bootloader due to having to run nvflash to get it back to that point.
I have fastboot access i can send a recovery image over to it (twrp 2.5 ics.img) however when i reboot it i dont see the recovery!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Someone help
Hi, all.
I was messing around with Android Tweaker 2, zipaligning my apps, performing vague system tweaks and the like, when I rebooted my phone for the changes to take effect; however, the phone booted up, finished the booting animation, and where the home screen should be showing up only showed a black screen. From there I can only reboot again, reboot into STOCK recovery, or reboot into fastboot, which has limited function in an Asus device (inability to flash unsigned custom recovery images, inability to flash rom images, stock firmware images are unavailable ANYWHERE, etc.) My device WAS rooted, however, I did a factory reset from the stock recovery in hopes that the problem would be resolved, so I'm not sure if root access was retained. I've tried a lot of things, but what I need is access to adb to push some files, or just figure out what the hell happened to the device.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Details:
Asus Padfone X [4.4.2 stock rom]
WAS rooted
LOCKED bootloader
STOCK recovery
Fastboot is basically useless, given the "safeguards" Asus has implemented
Read the CM12.1 for instructions on unlocking bootloader , there are instructions on booting from custom recovery using fastboot from there you can adb push the files to your phone as posted in the Nandroid Stock backup thread and install using TWRP.

Thanks for the advice.
I have consulted the CM12.1 thread, and I see the instructions, the first step of which is to "boot into CWM, CMRecovery, or TWRP." However, I do not have any of these custom recoveries flashed on my Padfone X. Is there a way I can boot custom recovery off an external microsd or something?
Note: upon attempting the "fastboot flash recovery CMrecovery.img" command, the cmd window returns the following:
Code:
target reported max download size of 1879048192 bytes
sending 'recovery' <11220 KB>...
OKAY [ 0.438s ]

FAILED <remote: can't flash unsigned image>
finished. total time: 0.444s
EDIT: Problem has been resolved, used
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
and restored stock.

Glad I was able to point you into the right direction.
I made a bootlogo with Moto Boot Logo Maker (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-motorola-boot-logo-maker-source-t2848667).
But when I tried to install the bootlogo via fastboot, I did the mistake of try to flash 'boot' instead of 'logo'.
I tried to flash bootlogo in 'boot' partition 3 times, and now I don't know what to do.
Please help, what to do now?
I don't know if I can turn off my phone or try to restart, I don't know if it'll start again or if it'll hard brick because I tried to flash 'boot' partition.
What can I do? Will I need to download original firmware and flash boot with its correct image?

So is your phone booting now?
It wouldn't have done any harm imo.
I haven't came across it before so nothing can be said for sure.
Chances are, fastboot formatted your boot partition and when tried to flash the IMG, throws that error. In that case, your boot partition is empty and system is without a kernel. You will need to flash stock IMG in that case.
However, it might be the case that fastboot performed the check before formatting partition and your kernel might be residing there safely.. But no way of knowing that without booting.
So if you want to be on safe side, flash the stock img.
If you want to try and check , try rebooting once. You might be able to boot into bootlaoder mode after.

I thought boot partition was important as motoboot's bootloader partition or gpt, forgot 'boot' is kernel.
fastboot formatted my boot partition, phone was stuck at bootlogo.
Downloaded official XT1025 firmware and flashed only boot partition.
Went to TWRP, installed my old custom kernel and now the phone is fine.
Thanks
Glad u solved it..

The custom logo's doesn't flash on the boot partition, flash on the logo partition
Example: mfastboot flash logo nameoflogo.bin
Before:
I just unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom ROM (LineageOS 15.1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-y6/development/lineageos-15-1-huawei-y6-2018-t3832278) on my Huawei but it won't let me flash the TWRP from adb. I tried before flashing the custom ROM and also after but no progress. I tried with 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' as well as 'fastboot flash boot recovery.img' because I knew some smartphones include the recovery in the boot.img but I am always getting the same error:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'recovery' (16544 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.522s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: partition table doesn't exist)
finished. total time: 0.553s
I am not an expert but I understood that 'recovery' partition doesn't exist. I found some possible solutions online such as writing 'fastboot flash RECOVERY recovery.img' or 'fastboot flash erecovery recovery.img' (because Huawei calls the stock one 'erecovery') but they both gave me another error:
Code:
fastboot flash RECOVERY recovery.img
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'RECOVERY' (16544 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.522s]
writing 'RECOVERY'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.528s
UPDATE: I found, maybe, the correct name of the recovery partition and it seems to work:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
< waiting for device >
target reported max download size of 535822336 bytes
sending 'recovery_ramdisk' (14026 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.443s]
writing 'recovery_ramdisk'...
OKAY [ 0.323s]
finished. total time: 0.767s
BUT it actually doesn't work properly because when I boot into recovery it boots the stock one. I tried other solutions found on the net like instantly unplug the phone after the flash and reboot it into recovery immediately but again it boots into stock one...
OTHER UPDATE: I managed to find and flash a TWRP that can boot up but it shows the internal storage 0MB not allowing me to install any .zip file. Because of that, I cannot install SuperSU to get root access.
I tried installing TWRP also with stock ROM but still showing 0MB because the phone is encrypted. To disable encryption I need to install the bluspark TWRP (As I found online), the problem is that bluspark won't boot and gets immediately overwritten by the stock ROM as it happened with the one I mentioned in the first update of the post.
Now I will try buying a microSD card and see if it shows right so that I can still flash .zip from the microSD card.
Now:
LATEST UPDATE: The SD card is working properly and I see it as around 60 GB instead of 64 but that's not the problem. I can see the .zip files I'd want to flash but when I try to do it it says me that it failed to mount every single partition and after some research I discovered that my Huawei has all the data encrypted. After other research I found that there are some TWRPs like blu_spark that could decrypt the data but every version I tried doesn't work and gets immediately overwritten by the stock recovery.
Does anyone know other methods to decrypt all the data on Huawei? Otherwise it's impossible to flash any .zip. Actually it flashes it but it fails to update the partitions state so the system doesn't recognize the changes.
Rooting Huawei is so difficult.. I will buy an OP5t as soon as I have the money XD.
Y6 2018 twrp
Any progress? I'm also looking for a version of TWRP that works with the Y6 2018.
