So, I kind of rooted my device using Kingo Root and it wasn't successful (I guess). So, in fastboot mode, I tried OEM unlock and it didn't work too; but anyway, I flashed TWRP recovery into my phone and through that I tried to install CM 13,14 custom ROMs which was completely unsuccessful. It doesn't allow me to install any ROM. And says that root privilege is lost. And now, all that I have access to is a phone stuck in bootloop and TWRP which doesn't allow me anything to do because apparently root access is lost. :crying:
I tried every method of flashing via YGDP tool and it is stuck at 'entering download mode'. I have installed different drivers over and again to fix as suggested by different threads but still, it's the same. [Windows 8.1] . And is there any other tool to flash this same stock ROM or better, can I get root access again in a bricked device and install a custom ROM any way?:fingers-crossed:
I also have access to ADB sideload via TWRP, so can I get stock ROM in .zip format. So far, I can only find it in .CPB format; maybe I can use .zip stock ROM via ADB sideload to flash it. Please help if any of this is possible.
*Apology for such a long question but I think you guys must know everything in order to provide me with a fix*
It's fixed.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Its fixed now, I assume it was because of the ROM file being downloaded through chrome in phone, I downloaded ROM and GApps in PC and flashed through TWRP and bam! Its back on:laugh:
TWRP - 2.4.4
ROM - Resurrection Remix 5.7.2
Thanks anyways!

This is the first time I tried to install a custom rom. Please be gentle.
Device: Huawei Y300 (Bootloader unlocked and rooted)
TWRP Version: 2.5.0.1
Custom rom: cm-11-20140510-NIGHTLY-u8833.zip (found here)
I mindlessly tried to flash cyanogenmod 11 (kitkat) on my Huawei Y300. Here was the last steps I did:
copied rom and gapps zip files on phone root
restarted phone in fastboot mode
on ADB, ran
Code:
fastboot flash boot path\to\boot.img
(everything seem to be working fine)
ran
Code:
fastboot reboot
(phone rebooted in TWRP)
Tried to install cm-11-20140510-NIGHTLY-u8833.zip rom file (installation failed)
From what I read, the version of my twrp is not compatible with kitkat? Now i believe I bricked my phone because I forgot to create a backup of the stock rom.
Questions:
Is the stock rom still somehow there, hiding in my phone memory?
Is it possible to "undo"
Code:
fastboot flash boot path\to\boot.img
so that the "original" boot.img is used by my phone when I try to reboot it?
I am currently downloading Android SDK with a plan to upgrade my twrp for kitkat compatibility. I hope this will let me install cyanogenmod kitkat on my huawei. But I am not sure if I will succeed. If I still fail, can you guys tell me what other options I have to save my phone?
Thanks
Edit: problem solved.
I learned how to properly flash/upgrade twrp via fastboot.. Retried installing rom with twrp 2.7 and it was successful.
Hi, I am using P600 (note 10.1 2014 Wifi) XAR one
Yesterday I was trying to install magisk all day, but failed all
When I rooted device and instaled TWRP, in TWRP it made error number 1 and it says something like turn to stock boot, so I tried to reinstall stock firmware via Odin, but it didn’t change anything.
I guess it’s a problem with boot.img or the autoroot method I used.
So I tried to use fastboot to install TWRP without rooting, but this time it didn’t boot into bootloader from fastboot, it just restarted the tablet all the time.
So I tried to manually reboot into the download mode, but fastboot didn’t recognize the device then.
When I did it, I turnned on the USB debugging with no mistake since it’s just samsung.
So I booted into recovery mode(It can go into recovery mode without problem)
Then tried option “reboot to boorloader” and it just restarts the tablet again.
I guess something corrupted boot.img or bootloader somehow, while I was rooting or something.
Can I get factory boot.img and solve it? Or when I install stock firmware via Odin does it also fix boot.img and boot loader?
I tried to install stock firmwares and factory reset several times. It didn’t help anything. It did unroot or turn the recovery to stock recovery, but couldn’t get into bootloader.
Can anyone please help me or give me advice to solve this problem?

Hi, I want to install custom rom on my tablet but I can't flash or enter into any custom recovery I know.
Tablet specs:
It's a chinese BDF tablet 10''
Brand: JTY
Board: KT107_L1_20160428
Procesor: MT6580
Kernel: 3.10.72+
Android: 6.0 Marshmallow
I tried to do it using many tutorials and many ways founded on many forums, including this, without success.
During these attempts I unlocked root and bootloader, installed on my pc ADB drivers, Google USB drivers, MTK vcom drivers, PdaNet, on my device PdaNet, BusyBox, TWRP manager and ROM manager.
First I tried to install TWRP recovery using the newest recovery from their website and 3 others recoverys which I found on the internet and should be dedicated for my tablet. I installed each one of them using ADB in Command window, SP flash tool and Easy magic TWRP installer, which is dedicated for any MediaTek device, both ways: manual and automatic. Every attemp was successful but every time when I checked in TWRP manager, it said what I don't have any custom recovery installed on the device, when I tried to enter into it through the boot menu it wasn't entering into TWRP, only the chinese stock recovery.
Then I tried with Easy magic PhilZ 6 installer, but the effect was the same.
At the end I tried to install CWM using MTK Droid Tools, but this program doesn't see my device and I couldn't fix this.
Could any of you help me somehow, explain or give me a right recovery file so that it works. I really want to change my Android to a LineageOS and I'm tired of my fails. I'm working on this 5 days, accidently bricked it, stucked on bootloop and stucked on logo screen so many times that I can't even count, I'm desperate for help.
any luck yet ?
Hi !
I have the exact same issues with my Chinese BDF tablet. No matter how i try to Flash a custom bootloader to the tablet, it simply wont work... Even tho it looks like i succeed, whenever i want to boot into the custom bootloader, it always boot into the installed chinese bootloader, and the chinese bootloader wont let med flash custom firmware to the tablet. Let me know if you find a fix, and i will do the same if i succeed installing a different bootloader
I did not see this specifically in your question so as far as i understand it. You first flash the twrp.img, this is a temporary boot file. DO NOT REBOOT YET. flash Magisk.zip and twrp.zip - now reboot and you should be rooted.
How i can root lolipop stock ROM of lenovo tab 2 a7-10f ?
I have tried kingroot and much more methods, but doesnt support.
I heard people say that lolipop version cant be rooted, just kitkat version which is first ROM. Lolipop is OTA upgrade from Lenovo.
I dont want to flash ROM, i want to use some tools which are available throught root.
I have tried flashing TWRP throught unlocked bootloader (fastboot), when i run command:
fastboot flash recovery c:\twrp.img
It says, done.
But i cant eneter recovery, and i flashed it multiple times, and it says it flashed fine.
But when i use key combination i enter in stock recovery.
And i tried diffrent command (i didnt know that command is bad idea)
fastboot flash boot c:\twrp.img
And i stucked in twrp recovery, it coudnt boot in normal system, because i changed what android should boot.
I extracted from stock ROM, boot.img and flashed it only in fastboot.
And booted normaly, but when i run on recovery, i saw i deleted it's stock recovery.
I was freaked, and i didnt touched anything anymore, i lost stock recovery but i dont care, i care that tab is still alive.
I'm not able to flash anything in any other way that fastboot which is quite scary to use if tab is working good (i dont want to break if something works)
How i can root it.
I have knowledge of adb commands but with all that knowledge i didnt managed to get root to this device, it looks like it's locked in that way.
Lolipop is best, it is very good and accesibile, and i just want to tweak it more with some xposed modules and apps that support root.
So I have rooted my Android Galaxy A8 (SM-A530F) Android version 9. To do this I used TWRP to install RMM_Bypass_v3_corsicanu.zip, no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip-6.0 and Magisk-v19.3.zip. Everything works fine, but I cannot encrypt the device! I have also tried the fast encryption option with no luck.
I tried a couple of suggestions from the following forum post https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/guide-how-to-root-device-encryption-t3742493?nocache=1 namely where it says:
- Flash the stock book.img back in Odin and apply no-verity-opt-encrypt in TWRP. Use 7-Zip to create a tar only containing the stock BOOT.IMG and flash it in Odin using the AP slot.
- Flash back a TWRP backup taken of the boot partition before installing a root ROM, but after flashing no-verity-opt-encrypt.
After following the two options listed above the phone just un-roots!
I have also tried to shuffle the order in which the three zip files(mentioned earlier) are installed via TWRP with no success.
Does anyone know of any other solutions to having both encryption with root? Are there other better ways to root the phone that might enable encryption?
Grateful for any help, thanks.
