I'm having problems getting TWRP to install. I followed the guide on this site, but I guess it's outdated, and didn't work. Could someone please give me instructions on how to install TWRP on a Asus Zenwatch 2?
Thanks.

Got it! After you flash the recovery, do fastboot reboot and then swipe from the top right corner to the bottom left.

Yeah you have to boot into twrp first, booting to Android Wear will replace it with stock.

when you flash any new sbf (which is exactly what an OTA does), you will lose root. You just have to use one of the methods and see if you can get root back.
Either I'm noobing something up, or there does seem to be some change to the root method needed as I had this working before.
Running photon-torpedo.sh still gives me that giant error message that successfully roots me so the hard part is done.
However, it seems like the install-su.sh is complaining:
mount: can't find /system in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
plus a few other errors after that.
root is still open. i just rooted through adb and am typing this while tethered.
almost had a heart attack...now rooted again
Will I have to do the dock-less method again after updating, to use just an hdmi cord for webtop?

Hi
I would have posted this in the Nabi 2 root thread, but i don't have enough posts to do so.
I have tried and tried to root both my girls Nabi 2 tablets and i get errors with both of them, i have rooted a few Android devices before and find it easy, but i just cant get these to Nabi 2's done.
Using jmztaylor's method i get this error:

If i try to install root or gapps via recovery, i get this error:
I cannot see or understand what i am doing wrong, i rooted my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 at Christmas and everything went fine, im using the same computer to do thes Nabi 2's but just errors all the time.
My most recent update on them was December i think, is it possible Nabi may have blocked the method to do this between the root being released and Christmas ?

No i just have the normal Nabi 2, im thinking it was the update i did on Christmas day, its above the version that everyone is rooting their Nabi 2's on.
EDIT
Thanks to your link, i found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074501
It seemed to root fine, i even have SuperSU on the Nabi, but it wont install gapps, so i tried installing the Market independently, it installs but wont run, lol its frustrating as i normally find these things easy, now i feel a bit stupid for not being able to get it sorted.

not sure if you tried this version of gapps ?
I just go in to Twrp in choose install
this tablet does tend to exersize the brain a bit more
thank goodness for XDA forum. Oorah .... lol

hello i tried today a LG G3 F400 Recovery 6.0.4.9 for my phone and it works perfect and this is the steps :
1, the function has been done wipe and brush test, everything is normal.
2, due to the unconventional, so some features may very Compared with conventional forms of some of the problems with third-party recovery. I hope you understand this.
3, at present, the recovery for zip format to brush after a third-party ROM package has enough to deal with.
4, the latest version 6.0.4.9
Usage:
1, the phone must have root privileges without root privileges Look at this post: " ROOT LG G3 two kinds of methods are summarized Share "
2, download and install RecoveryInstaller-v1.0_AnZhi.apk
3, click "Install Recovery" to the recovery installation to your phone
4, click the "Reboot into Recovery" to reboot into recovery
5, the boot (or just does not appear when you boot boot animation), press the volume key stop point (not long press) may also enter this recovery

How is this magic possible?!
Created Nandroid, which naturally works fine.
So, now how to restore...?
Flashing a stock rom, rooting it and using this recovery afterwards is "somewhat cumbersome"

Hi, so I ran into a problem while trying to downgrade something on my tablet. I can't remember exactly because it was a few months back. I believe it was the bootloader, but I am stuck in recovery loop now. Can anyone assist me on fixing this?

Did you try the power + volume down combo? If you can boot into download mode, you can reflash stock ROM using Odin. Else, if you have a ROM zip in your sdcard, you can make a full wipe and flash that.
BTW, can you remember what OS were you from?

True. Ran into that issue myself and odin was my saviour. Left to its own it will reboot to recovery but power+volume down give the option to boot to download mode. Use it to reflash your stock rom.

You need a more recent recovery for that. Try to sideload TWRP 2.7.1.0 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2777161.

Your welcome lol. My guess is that your tab has no ROM in the system which is why it kept booting into recovery. But why it couldn't boot into download mode I don't know.
I've flashed TWRP and it was working.
I made the mistake of doing a Huawei system update (directly rather then manually) to get to marshmellow because a lot of the ROMs
require it.
After that EMUI recovery was put back on there.
So I tried reflashing TWRP and I have not been able to do that, it always boots EMUI recovery now.
Can I trust a full NAND restore to stock + twrp (5.1 lollipop) from EMUI 4.0 Marshmellow? and can
can I do it from within fastboot boot twrp.img without any complications?
I've tried some of the suggestions on the other threads for flashing recoveries like force booting TWRP and
flashing from within TWRP and then rebooting recovery (still have EMUI).
Every device has its quirks I should have read more about the Honor's before taking action.
But I did look for some instructions on this sort of thing but I didn't find it anything labeled for it.
I have a (FULL absolutely everything) NAND backup sitting on my phone's memory card but I've never used it.
I hope this is okay, I've solved my problem (Restored from NAND).
Thank god for the common wisdom of taking a full NAND backup first thing.
If your new as well, plz there is no greater investment you can make in your modding then taking a full NAND backup the second you have TWRP installed on your device (copy it to all your PC's as well when you get a chance).
