I just unlocked bootloader.
Then I installed TWRP.
Tried to backup all partitions, failed. Maybe because I didn't know the data password.
Rebooted into system.
Now I want to boot into TWRP to backup then wipe and install Lineage.
But it just doesn't work.
I select reboot from menu, then hold Vol-Up.
It shows the unlocked bootloader warning, then boots up system
I shut down and start again pressing Power and Vol-Up.
If I release Power when the bootloader warning shows, it again boots the system.
If I continue pressing Power then it does nothing else as showing the warning, showing black screen, over and over.
thanks
So what the hell?
The stock system does not offer a "reboot into recovery" menu?!
Solved it myself. Booted recovery via fastboot.
And that probably was the issue: I initially booted it via fastboot and did not install it ever.
Edit: no. Maybe TWRP was replaced by stock recovery automatically.

Hi,
I know this has been covered thoroughly, but I have a particular problem that I haven't been able to find a solution for.
I have the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime, MIUI 6. I'm trying to boot into recovery mode either one of two ways: holding down volume up + power, or going through the 'Update' app options. Both times, the same thing happens: The phone starts up with the Mi logo, hangs for about 20 ish seconds, reboots as normal. It doesn't at any stage enter recovery mode. Holding down volume down + power takes me to Fastboot, but it hangs on the fastboot screen infinitely..
Any thoughts?
Chris

I have tried that, same thing happens.
To clarify, whenever I try to enter recovery mode, the phone starts up, vibrates, Mi logo appears, hangs for about 10-15 seconds, turns off, turns on, vibrates, Mi logo appears, "Powered by Android" appears, phone starts up normal.

Hmm I will try to install that app. Right now the phone wont get past the boot screen, it is just hanging on the Mi logo and Powered by Android.
Thanks
Try to flash the stock recovery.
Then you should be able to boot into stock recovery and wipe all data.
After that the phone should boot.
At least that worked for me

If you have rooted phone, try to flash recovery (TWRP) over terminal, with dd.
You have trashed the recovery partition. Reboot in fastboot mode (Vol- + PWR) and reflash TWRP.img via fastboot on a PC.
Command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Rename the twrp.img to recovery.img or change the name used in the command. There are plenty of tutorials out there on how to use fastboot.
Do not let the phone boot up after flashing!!!! You will end up back with the same problem. Hold down Vol+ to boot into Recovery mode for the first time.
Hi! i need help. i deleted bascially everything from my phone. I was in recovery and deleted system, delvik/cache and i can't remember the other boxes i checked. now my phone is on the HTC logo with the red letters and won't go further. is there any solution? thanks in advance.
Maybe its obvious at this point, but it should still be said: you should not wipe anything in TWRP, if you do not fully understand what it is, and what the result will be. Those options are under the "Advanced" wipe section for a reason.
Access bootloader by: holding power button and vol up until the phone reboots (may take a minute or so, in the current condition). Once the screen goes blank (but before the logo screen reappears) let go of the buttons, and only hold vol down, and do not let go until the bootloader screen appears. If it doesn't work, you just didn't get the timing right (either started pressing vol down too late, or let go too early) so repeat until you get it right.
From bootloader, select recovery. If it still doesn't boot recovery, go back into bootloader, select fastboot. Then fastboot erase cache; and flash TWRP again using fastboot.
Once you can get into recovery, flash a ROM (either put a ROM on SD card, or adb push). Then reboot, and you should be good to go.
All else fails, relock the bootloader and RUU to stock.
I'm a bit stuck here, would appreciate some assistance.
I tried to root my device (UMI Plus) by yesterday using 'SP Flash tool' by flashing TWRP and then installing SuperSU. That went fine, but after booting my Google Play Services kept rebooting rendering the device unusable. In an attempt to fix this I tried a "Factory Reset" via the Android settings menu which I guess was a bad idea because it started auto booting into Recovery... At that point no matter what I did I ended up back in Recovery.. Reboot to system, factory data reset.. all rebooted the phone back into TWRP recovery.
So I thought I would just try putting the default recovery back on the device again but whenever I power off the device and connect it to my PC it boots into recovery.. The phone needs to be powered off for SP Flash Tools to work. Tried loading recovery image via fastboot but the volume rockers don't work in fastboot so I can't confirm the action.
After some digging I read online that holding down VolUp + Power can 'force' into preload mode, which seems to have some success. I can see the device boot into "Preloader mode" in device manager in Windows, but it loses connection after about 3 seconds. So I did that with my SP flash tool ready and it seems to have erased recovery mode. Oops! Now whenever I try to get into recovery it just says "No command". No combination of button pressing, button holding, button releasing or anything will change this (This is the only answer I could find on Google!). Neither fastboot or adb can see the device either. It shows up as "MTP USB device" in device manager in Windows...
Is it doomed? I can't figure out what to do next...
P.S. The full ROM is available here but in RAR format.. which seems strange to me...

I was trying to root my p20 lite on EMUI 9.1 so I flashed the patched recovery ramdisk, rebooted then typed "adb reboot recovery", but it wouldn't load. So I forcereseted the phone but it came to the same screen "your device has been unlocked" and "Your device is booting now" no options to press power to boot or erecovery. So I tried flashing the original ramdisk but it would still never load, and trying "fastboot reboot bootloader" didn't help either. I can't boot into system I can only go into fastboot mode.
edit: adb detects my device but rebooting into system command still reboots into recovery
edit 2: my phone has bootloader unlocked
edit 3: here is the phone log https://drive.google.com/file/d/19MNYSdI5gkzlAti2wVhsGuc8v6iAWaG6/view?usp=sharing
Connect phone to charger
Press and hold power button only
Keep it pressed till phone boots into 3 option scream, 1 press vol up 3 sec for e recovery, 2 press power to enter system, 3 do nothing 5 sec
Release power button, wait
Shoulda enter e recovery
Press reboot and wait
Shoulda reboot to system, root will not work, but phone will work
If want to start with root, you need to relfash system using dload package or hisuite update, otherwise your phone still will be stucked , so need fresh system files
I don’t get the three options. Only the your device is booting now. Rebooting via adb just reboots into the same thing.
edit: let the battery drain and now it is working again
Same, loading screen but nothing.
I flashed an unofficial Evolution X v6.5 Rom For my Poco F1 today,
it was working fine but then I tried to Reboot into MY Custom Recovery( OrangeFox ) using the Advance Restart Option Exist in Rom.
OrangeFox Recovery Opening Image was Showing but it didn't opened, My phone shut down and rebooted again into the Same OrangeFox Opening Image and then shut down again.
It stuck into Recovery Opening Bootloop.
I tried holding the power button to reboot into system but noting is happening, It is showing same Recovery Opening Image and then shutting down,
I tried holding the power button + Volume UP Button, Same thing was happening Recovery Opening Image and then shutting down.
Luckily when I tried holding the power button + Volume down Button, It opened the bootloader.
So I thought Something happened to the OrangeFox recovery file So I installed the TWRP Recovery with My PC.
BUT Now It showing TWRP Opening Image and then shutting down. Same Recovery Bootloop.
Something( Maybe the Rom ) preventing me from rebooting into any recovery.
I should mention that I didn't installed any new app or anything, I just flashed the rom and then finished the Google setup.
I managed to shut down the phone by holding all 3 button for about 20sec.
But it's not charging anymore, if I plug the to phone to charger it start the whole Recovery Bootloop again.
Please Let me know if you know of any possible solutions.
I managed to fix that issue, In Future if anyone else got same problem in any phone, Then Follow this,
At First Hold all three button for about 25sec to shut down your phone,
at this situation your phone won't charge, if your battery completely drained then your phone might get hard brick, so shut down it at first.
Then download a stable & trustable rom and put that in SD Card or Pendrive( in this case you will be needed an OTG to plug the perdrive into your phone )
Then download the latest TWRP or any other Recovery in your PC. You really need the latest custom Recovery( 0 - 3 Months Old ).
I should let you know, You need to install ADB & Fastboot Drivers on your PC to perform any normal rooting process on your phone, And Download "Android Platform Tools".
Open CMD in "Android Platform Tools" Folder
Connect your phone to your PC in bootloader mode by holding down Power + Volume Down Button.
Then Type in CMD - fastboot devices
To check your device is properly connected or not. If your phone is connected properly then CMD will show a random number and fastboot. If not then connect the phone properly and check the driver.
Then Type - fastboot erase userdata
It will erase all your internal and data.
Then Type - fastboot flash recovery "PUT HERE THE LATEST CUSTOM RECOVERY FULL PATH"
It will flash the custom recovery, IN above command after writing recovery give a space then write the full path or hold and drag the latest custom recovery to command prompt, it will automatically write the full path for you.
After flashing the recovery now you can open the recovery.
Now Open the custom recovery immediately by holding down Power + Volume UP Button.
Then Wipe the Old Rom and flash the new downloaded rom from SD Card or Pendrive.
AND there you go, Now you can reboot into your new system or recovery.
