Hey there!
so, I just upgraded my z5c from MM CyanogenMod to this nougat ROM > [ROM][7.0][Stock][.33][3.7 b7][Deodex][DeBloat][Font][Stereo][Vulkan™] Xperia Loop™
Before the update I could enter TWRP without any problems.
Now, everytime I try to boot into recovery the phone simply reboots...
Things I've tried:
• Typed "adb reboot recovery" on CM
• Downloaded TWRP App to re-flash and click on "recovery reboot"
• Power up phone holding Volume Down
The phone is rooted with SuperSU.
The main reason I wanted to regain access to recovery is to re-root the phone with Magisk.
Thanks for your time.
1. install fastboot and fastboot drivers on your pc (if you don't have them obviously)
2. plug the phone into the pc using the usb cable while holding the volume + button (this way you will skip the adb part)
3. wait for the notification light to go blue
4. go into the fastboot directory
5. download the twrp "recovery.img" file and put it into the fastboot directory
6. hold shift while right-clicking into the directory where fastboot is
7. use the option to open a cmd into the directory
8. type in "fastboot boot recovery.img"
if your phone's fastboot drivers don't have signature (like it happened to me) download Zadig and create a signature for the driver
Hope this helps... i had the same problem and solved by doing this

Hello
I have a Sony Xperia S LT26i
I used this manual to root my Sony:
Copy the CyanogenMod 9.1 package and the GApps package into your phone’s internal SD card.
Extract fastboot-win32.zip into the C:\ drive (root directory) of your computer.
Copy recovery-nozomi.img into the same folder where fastboot.exe has been extracted.

Access bootloader, connect your phone to pc, select an option that enables pc to recognize your device(differs with different devices and all other pc tools must be installed to the pc), copy the files to your phone adn flash 'em thru recovery tool. Evrything shud work fine then.
I have the padfone x rooted using towel root but I haven't installed a custom recovery. I'm trying to install the recent WW ROM for the padfone s and I get an error about the footer not matching. How can I install the s ROM on an x?
From custom recovery without installing said recovery.
1. Download TWRP and place it in directory with adb and fastboot.
2. Power off the phone, hold Volume UP then the Power Button until the phone turns on, then release the Power Button only. Your phone will appear to hang the ASUS Logo bootscreen, you are now in bootloader.
3. open command prompt on your PC and navigate to your adb/fastboot directory.
4. Run this command
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
5. Your phone will reboot and show the TWRP boot screen then go dark. Wait ~2 minutes then tap power to wake phone.
6. Install as normal from recovery.
If that doesn't work.
1. put the ROM zip in a folder on your computer where your ADB.exe is located.
2. Using TWRP, go to Advance > ADB Sideload
3. Slide to start ADB sideload.
4 Navigate CMD Prompt to the directory containing ADB and the zip file.
5. Run
Code:
adb sideload [I]filename[/I].zip
6. Tap reboot, TWRP will ask if you want to fix/install root. Your choice here
If you have any problems with force close, reboot into recovery and factory reset.
Thanks Daggorlad. That worked brilliantly.

If you do these steps exactly then your phone can enter the recovery normally and you can flash any stock or custom rom.
1- Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot from this link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24521665358595410
2- Download and install Flashtool drivers from this link: http://doomlord.xperia-files.com/download.php?dlid=Rmxhc2h0b29sLWRyaXZlcnMtMS41LTIwMTQwMzE4
Skip Step 2 if you already installed Flashtool Drivers that install with Flashtool if you have installed it.
3- Download the latest twrp recovery from this link: https://dl.twrp.me/sirius/twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img.html
4- Move the twrp recovery that you have downloaded in step 3 to this Path C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
5- Download this kernel from this link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bwn7bAJ-USZjZzg0Q2I2RWlWa1U/view?pref=2&pli=1
6- Extract it then you will find boot.img take this file and move it too to this Path C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
7- put your phone in fastboot mode by this way >> (Power off your phone completely then wait for 10 second then press and hold the volume up then connect your phone to the computer with usb cable while you are pressing and holding the volume up then the led will change it's color to blue.. that is the fastboot mode)
8- Now go to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder in that path (C:\Program Files\Minimal ADB and Fastboot) Press shift button from keyboard then press right click form mouse while pressing the shift button you will find an option [Open command window here] Press it.
9- In the command window write this command exactly: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-sirius.img
10- Then write this command after it: fastboot flash boot boot.img
11- After it flashed successfully reboot your phone by writing this command: fastboot reboot then unplug the usb from the phone
12- when the phone reboot and the sony logo appears keep pressing the volume up and down until the twrp recovery opens
13- Done
I wish that i had helped you. if you want any thing just ask me and i will answer.
I am having a REAL BUGGER of a time with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro (Snapdragon)!
1. It is not recognized by ADB in Fastboot mode.
2. I suspect it shipped wit a vendor ROM, and I'm trying to flash latest Official MIUI Global Dev (Marshmallow) ROM, but I keep getting errors in MI Flash (screenshot attached).
3. I want to Flash TWRP, BUT ADB isn't working, AND I cannot get to the download page for the cracked bootloader.
4. Seriously considering Resurrection Remix ROM, instead, but most of the above issues still apply.
I am NOT new to custom recoveries, flashing ROMS, ADB etc, BUT I am dealing with a new PC (Windows 10 Home, 64 bit, like my old (dead) laptop), and I'm new to this device.
PLEASE HELP. (Quite frustrated)
Fastboot won't recognize adb commands you have to use fastboot.
What you can try is booting into emergency download mode and using my flash to flash it from there. I think it's " adb reboot edl" while the device is on with USB debugging or using the mi updater app ( tap the three dots I think).
I think that this is not the correct section for your question, and i dont know the procedure that you follow but try to follow this procedure:
-Connect the phone at pc with USB cable
-Make sure that debug mode and OEM unlock was abilitate in dev settings
-Copy twrp.img in adb folder
-Shut down the phone and press power botton and - vol buttons for enter in fastboot mode
-Run this commands by terminal open in adb folder
fastboot devices
-If fastboot recognize correctly the device run this command
fastboot fash recovery nameoftwrp.img
-After reboot the device with this command
fastboot reboot
When the phone reboot press immediatily vol + for enter in twrp
Good luck
GOT IT! FINALLY!
-I finally got ADB to connect, and was able to enter EDL through ADB.
-Re-downloaded ROM from web.
-Re-extracted.
-FLASHED SUCCESSFULLY!
-SETUP COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY!
-YAY!
(I think the original download was corrupted, somehow.)

Normal TWRP has known problems...
You can try flashing Squid TWRP (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...wrp-squid-twrp-recovery-moto-e-lte-t3137649): is a unbloated and optimized twrp for our device.
This situation has appened to me and i resolved by installing that TWRP.

From the video you posted before i assuming you have already installed motorola driver and fastboot or mfastboot.
Here are the steps:
0- Download SQUID TWRP and place it in e.g. C:\ (last version is twrp-surnia-3.2.1-r1.img);
1- Shut down your phone;
2- Press Power Button + Vol Up until you see bootloader screen;
3- Now connect your phone to PC;
4- On PC, open a commad window pront (Start -> "cmd" on research bar, then enter);
5- Cmd prompt;
6- Type "fastboot devices". It should show a serial number: PC has recognized your device;
8- Then type "fastboot flash recovery C:\twrp-surnia-3.2.1-r1.img" last parameter is the path where you placed recovery so change it if you have choosen another path;
9- Wait for 3-4 seconds until the prompt shows something similar to "complete" or "success";
10- Type "fastboot poweroff" and your device shuts down.
Now you have installed Twrp Recovery, if you want access it, repeat steps 1-2 and select recovery from bootloader menu.
If you want install a custom rom i suggest SlimRoms : follow the instructions to download and install this rom.
