Hi all,
I unlocked my phone and I installed LineageOS 14 (thanks to TWRP).
I tried to update Lineage (i had a notification), but when I rebooted, the stock recovery was launched... not TWRP.
Of course, i've flash TWRP several times... but at each reboot, the stock recovery come back..
From my PC, no problem :
- adb reboot bootloader : OK
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-kiwi.img OK
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-kiwi.img OK
From the phone, with the correct combo key (Volume Up + Power), TWRP wasn't launched...
Could you help me ?
Thanks !
What happens when you boot to recovery via adb?
Adb reboot recovery
Thanks for your answer !
Screen "EMUI" appears
with
- Reboot system now
- Wipe date/ factory reset
- Wipe cache partition

Is your usb connected while you boot to recovery.? If yes remove and boot once they see of that makes a difference
- adb reboot recovery
- Phone shutdown
- I remove the USB cable
Phone restart
Recovery stock (EMUI screen, as described above)
No Idea ?

Are you flashing the correct version of twrp. Whats your LOS version and which twrp you are using. May be the one you flashed is not compatible
I think You have skipped one, but important point of flashing twrp. There is a point what to do to prevent of returning into stock recovery after first twrp flash. Please read carefully all steps from howto and follow them in right order.
Good luck, Bro ??

I just installed Cyanogenmod. In the recovery there's no option to backup or restore (and the apply update always fails the signature verification). All I see on the recovery screen is
Reboot system now
Apply update]
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe media
Reboot to bootloader
Power down
Viw recovery logs
How can I backup/restore? It's my understanding that recoveries are designed for the stock kernel, and Cyanogenmod came with it's own kernel? I didn't know this because Cyanogenmod is a ROM, not a kernel
CyanogenMod Recovery is very basic. Flash another recovery more advanced for your phone.

Download rashr from playstore. That worked for me.
Also make sure that in developer settings, that it doesn't update recovery when you update Cm. Make sure it's off, and you'll keep your recovery. I flashed twrp. That worked well for me with the CM recovery.
If Rashr does not work (sometimes it doesn't for me), use fastboot:
1. Download the TWRP.img from their website https://twrp.me/devices/sonyxperiaz2.html
2. connect your phone into fastbootmode (shut down phone, press volume up and connect usb cable)
3. do the following command, to flash the recovery:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-sirius.img

Yea, I'd like to know why there is no recovery in Cynogen recovery.
And if we install another recovery, doesn't that wipe our phone?
Recently bricked my honor 5x used fast boot to get it out of boot loop. (Because I tried to its update my phone with twrp)now when I try to re flash twrp it gets replaced by the stock recovery Everytime . Please help!
Samething happend to me... cannot flash twrp because when i restart phone after flashing twrp, it gets replaced by stock recovery.
What i do now is to boot to twrp instead of flashing using this command:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.0.0-0-kiwi.img
Hopefully there is a solution for this flashing problem.

you can't just reboot after flashing recovery ...you have to boot directly to twrp after the flash with power + volume up (Skip the fastboot reboot step)
the simple way is to copy kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img to your sdcard
fastboot boot kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img
now in twrp choose install / image / then choose kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img
next choose reboot / recovery
you now have kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img
from then on adb reboot recovery from android
or power + volume up will enter TWRP

why are you using adb ?
did you read the instructions i posted
I have the stock recovery.
I cant get into twrp.
I tried to flash then go straight to twrp which gets replaced by stock bootloader
Idk it gets replaced everytime
Okay the adb thing stopped I got into twrp by doing the fastboot thing but when i boot into recovery it goes to the stock recovery.

I really don't know why you don't seem to get it
it's this simple
you fastboot boot kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img
now while in TWRP copy kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img to the phone
Also copy SuperSU-v2.64.zip (or newer) to the phone
after the files are copied choose Install / Image / kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img
next choose install / SuperSU.zip
next choose Reboot / Recovery
you now have TWRP recovery and you can enter it by using power + volume up
or from an app on the phone (I use Quickboot) or from a pc with adb reboot recovery
I have the same problem, i tried with your method but the system continue to replace bootloader, impossible to keep twrp on recovery
Edit : I try to install Root Checker, it detect my phone is root but impossible to access to TWRP, very strange

Tried this on my KIW-L21, as this is the only way I did not try it yet...
Did not work, unfortunately, I assume the OP could have the same problem as I already posted in the TWRP thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66678377&postcount=509
(It is a shame people spam this thread with unlocking problems, though)
EarlyMon mentioned something about dual recovery partitions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66838009&postcount=529
So regardless how many times I flash TWRP it wont stick until the next reboot to recovery, as it gets replaced by the stock one all the time.
I am thankful for every news on that topic and I would happily help(to the extent I am able to) getting TWRP back onto our phones :good:
P.S.: I am not quite sure if the OP has another problem in flashing the recovery, though.

So you are booting TWRP
Installing / TWRP.Img in TWRP and Reboot recovery and your not booting to TWRP ?
Just my two cents into this thread: apparently (from my personal experience, and EarlyMon seems to back this up) the Honor 5X for whatever reason allows the installation of TWRP but still keeps Huawei's stock recovery in place, unlike most phones. What's more, it randomly (yeah, guessing it's not random obviously, but I don't have the slightest clue what the pattern might be) decides to boot into stock recovery while I use the same hardware keys that have continuously booted me into TWRP up until that point. This behavior led me to believe I had bricked my phone for a day, lol (I made a recent post about it on this forum, in case anyone cares).
Bottom line: if you can't boot into TWRP even though you made sure to install it correctly, try changing the key combo. Vol down + Power not working for you? Try Vol Up. Neither work? Try Vol Up + Down + Power. Spice it out and it might solve your problems.

That is correct:
Connected Phone to PC
ADB reboot bootloader
fastboot boot kiwi.img
install image kiwi.img
reboot recovery
Tada, Stock eMUI Recovery :[
I really had hoped it would do the trick, though.

The last approach was done with the one from the first post of the TWRP thread here on XDA(https://goo.gl/53xai9) "kiwi_twrp_3-21_recovery.img"
I also tried the TWRP images from https://twrp.me/devices/huaweihonor5x.html but always the same result.
I can try with a specific image, just give me a link and I'll try to flash it. :fingers-crossed:
Good morning everybody.
I need some help with my kiw-l21. I've got installed CM13 with stock recovery. I have tried to install TWRP recovery but with no success and I want it to be installed on the device but I can't achieve it. I'm doing: adb reboot bootloader --> fastboot flash recovery twrp.img --> fastboot boot twrp.img and in TWRP, reboot -> recovery but I always get the emui stock recovery. In a friend honor 5x new, I did the same steps and twrp is now installed. Why I can't install TWRP in my device?
Thanks you for all!
Is your bootloader unlocked? Looks like eRecovery is flashing back stock one. And how did you manage to install CM with stock recovery, on B350 it has just "Reboot, Wipe data, Wipe cache" options?

Yes, I have bootloader unlocked. To install CM I did fastboot boot twrp.img. The recovery have: "Reboot system now", "Wipe data/factory reset" and "Wipe cache partition"
OK, try this order and give me feedback:
- adb reboot bootloader
- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
- fastboot reboot
- adb reboot recovery
Mine worked that way with 0 issues.

Try but emui recovery appear after adb reboot recovery.
BTW I have upgrade CM13 to LOS14.1 and now wifi doesn't work and MAC address is like xx:00:00.... all zeros.
Flash twrp directly by using
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I was into the process of rooting my XT1506. Unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp successfully and then in an attempt to installing custom rom via Fastboot, i run the command
fastboot -w
and then when i tried to run "fastboot update rom.zip", it didn't succeed. After that, whatever i do, the phone just boots into recovery and never into the system. Badly need your help, Guys....!!! I shall be really thankful.....
I think i made the thread in wrong section and now i cant find the option to move/delete it. I apologize Mods for this mistake and request them to move it.

If you still have twrp installed, you can wipe everything and flash the custom ROM from the recovery itself.
Tried that too...still it boots into recovery...One more thing i have noticed that in fastboot mode, clicking on "Factory" boots the phone normally.
Is there any problem related with recovery. I have presently Flyrom 5.1.2 installed and recovery is 3.0.1 (also tried twrp-otus-2.7.x), if that helps..
Download any Custom ROM (Lineage OS recommended)
Put that in your SDCard or Internal Storage (USB MTP works in recovery mode)
Go To Wipe Section and check All (Excluding Internal Or MicroSD)
Swipe to format
Then Press the HOME Button
Click on Install
Go to the path where ROM is (Root of the storage is best)
Flash the ROM
Wipe cache/Dalvik Cache (Must Do This)
First Boot may take 15-20 min...
Enjoy :fingers-crossed:
Hit Thanks If I Helped you
Problem solved. I think it was a problem with the recovery. I achieved the solution by flashing stock recovery. Now the phone is booting normal.
I am curious if anybody can suggest me a compatible recovery for this phone. By the way, thanx to all who helped me....You are awesome

That is the same recovery which caused the problems. Anyways, i'll try to put that in again and see if there'll be any difference. Btw, thanx mate..
@ aanishjangra try squid2's port of the recovery and see if it helps, although ensure you flash the recovery and immediately reboot to recovery (Not system) and the ROM gets patched.

Hi
I have a UHANS A101.
The official rom is quite old, and after read this post, I try to flash with AospExtended my UHANS (it's my first time).
I unlock the bootloader.
With volume + and power I access to the boot menu
I install TWRP in the recovery part
I boot t TWRP
Backup the current system
Wipe
Flash with Aosp and gapps.
But when I reboot, my phone reboot on TWRP ...
Volume + and power won't work anymore ...
On TWRP I click on reboot to system, but it's reboot to TWRP.
I try to restore the backup, but it don't work, maybe I fail when I did it ...
The only way I found to boot on the system is
Boot on TWRP
Click on reboot to bootloader
With my computer use the command : "fastboot continue"
And everthing work wells on my new ROM
But when I reboot, TWRP show up again ...
The trick with fastboot continue still work, but it's quite anoying ...
On this site, I found many other post about this issue, but the aswser seem to be specific for the phone model, or I didn't understand the answser.
Do you know what I'm missing ?
Thanks a lot for your help
