hi.
FastBoot recovery failed: partition 'recovery' not support flash
My mobile is honor 3c lite hol-u19 running official Android OS 4.4.2.
I am trying to install twrp recovery through fastboot. I tried executing the command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
But I am getting the error as partition 'recovery' not support flash. Please any one help me to fix this. Whether I need to change anything on the recovery partition?

Hi,
I have flash system.img file by using
Code:
D:\ADB\Android>fastboot flash system d:\backup\flash\system.img
sending 'system' (116302 KB)...
OKAY [114.524s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [ 47.582s]
finished. total time: 162.108s
It seems normal to me, but the problem arise when I restart the the phone. The phone unable to boot, and when I try
Code:
ADB Shell
It says somethings like "sh" is not found. So I do reboot recovery go to the shell and mount /system. Shockingly there is nothing in there.
I have checked the contents of system.img, and there is a lot of things in there, including the "sh". But it seems fastboot failed to flash the system partition.
Anyone can help me ?
maybe you should tell more info about your device, brand,chipset, etc ?
so people can be more easy to help.
just newbie suggestion, ignore this if its no help xD
Looks like your system image file is corrupted cause its not mounted after loading kernel. What kind of filesystem the image is using?

The system image is not corrupted, because I can safely flash it using Clockworkmod. The filesystem is yaff2, and I have tried opening it using some software and my file is there. I think the problem lies on fastboot who failed flashing properly.
simple

I would like to tell you my problem, I have a Mate 9 MHA-L09C605B111 which I did a rebrand a while ago and I'm with CUST 432 and installed the version of Oreo 8.0.0.368, a few weeks ago I received the update 369 via OTA. It was interesting to try; the problem is that I had open bootloader, TWRP Pretorian 3.2.0 and Root, take a terrible decision to do a relock of the bootloader.
After several attempts and letting the battery drain I could enter Fastboot mode, I have the FRP unlocked and I could unlock the bootloader again, the problem is that I can not enter either the TWRP, or to recovery mode, try flashing again the same TWRP I had installed it well but still when I want to enter after passing the Huawei logo it remains on the white screen of ERROR MODE, Func NO: 11 (recovery image) Error NO: (image Failed!) Reading other forums and looking I have been told a lot by Internet that it is necessary to make the Dload method try it but it did not work, I understand that it does not work in this model but I still try it.
I also did a flash with all the files as I found in a tutorial
"When you have system extracted, flash it in fastboot using fastboot flash system system.img.
Do the same with KERNEL, extract and flash to fastboot flash kernel KERNEL.IMG
(BOOT is now split into RAMDISK and KERNEL)
Recovery was split to recovery_ramdisk, recovery_vendor and recovery_vbmeta
Boot was split into ramdisk and kernel
Recovery2 (erecovery) was split into erecovery_ramdisk, erecovery_kernel, erecovery_vendor and erecovery_vbmeta
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img. Kernel flashed as fastboot flash kernel kernel.img.
Recovery ramdisk as fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img "
I'm still stuck on the same screen with error 11 and 2 I made the flash of the recovery that I used when I put version 368 are two MHA_RECOVERY_NoCheck.img and MHA_RECOVERY2_NoCheck.img both give Failed using the command Fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk RECOVERY_XXXX with both the same without using the _ramdisk command is equal I'm still stuck in the same state.
Does anyone have an idea that another method I can try?
I will thank you very much.
You can flash all * .img through ADB and in this case there is a specific order to do it, check several threads but I did not get an answer and search but I could not find anything, it is worth noting that when I flash files I mentioned before all OKAY but on power up it goes back to error 11 and 2 I have been told that it is a partition problem but I could not find something to recover them, there is some method that is missing or maybe an error in the steps I am doing ? I still can not access the TWRP but I can access without problems by ADB.
I am trying to install cwm recovery through fastboot. But I am getting the error as partition 'recovery' not support flash. Please any one help me to fix this. Whether I need to change anything on the recovery partition?
Hello!

Grateful if somone could help me on this.

Hello,
I soft-bricked my Padfone A86 when I tried to flash my own kernel using TWRP 2.7.1.1. Before that I was running a rooted Android 5.0.2 (fw version WW-12.4.0.59) with TWRP recovery that I installed like described in an article at padfoneclub.com.
Installing the custom ROM damaged (at least) the boot and recovery partitions. That means I only have access to fastboot which I can not use to flash to those partitions:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.7.1.1-unofficial.img
target reported max download size of 1879048192 bytes
sending 'recovery' (10124 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.321s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Security is Enable, close 'flash' function !!)
finished. total time: 0.338s
The remote: Security is Enable, close 'flash' function !! error must have been introduced by a patch to the bootloader because I don't recall having this issue when I first flashed TWRP back then when I was running some previous firmware version.
What I can do though is to boot the boot.img (only from fw versions 10.12.3.116 and 10.12.3.130) like this: fastboot boot boot.img
Using saferoot I managed to get root access which enables me to write to the recovery and boot partitions like this:
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/twrp-2.7.1.1-unofficial.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery bs=4096; sync;
Although I can confirm that the memory gets changed using the dd command the bootloader neither loads recovery nor the system on the boot partition.
I looked at a hexdump of the recovery partition and it seems like the only thing stored in it is the TWRP image followed by zeroes. Trying different block sizes didn't help neither.
Confusingly that method seemed to work for some people. Maybe TWRP requires to be written over some stock recovery and can't boot on its own?
I was only able to try to flash the stock recovery for fw versions above 10.12.3.13 as ASUS only included patch-files for the recovery partition before. That didn't work neither. I was assuming that the recovery is running on its own and does not depend on being the same version as the system (or the bootloader). Or might there be something on a different partition that prevents the recovery from working properly?
Booting into recovery results in getting into fastboot mode (fastboot continue doesn't help).
Booting the system stops at the bootloader which shows the error message: ERROR: Can not load Invalid boot image!!
The frustrating thing is that although I seem to have full access to the device memory I still don't manage to fix the recovery partition.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Try getting rid of the bs part. Flash the image at it's normal size.

Thanks for your reply.
I flashed both TWRP and stock recovery without the bs parameter. Same results as before: it doesn't boot into recovery.
I'm trying to boot an image without flashing it to my Xiaomi:
fastboot boot Image
creating boot image...
creating boot image - 35883008 bytes
Sending 'boot.img' (35042 KB) OKAY [ 0.829s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Isn't there a way to do it? It's a Poco M3
Poco M3 has separate recovery partition and TWRP is available too. Why don't you flash it?
You mean flashing the kernel to the recovery partition? How would this work? Flash boot.img to recovery, then do adb reboot recovery, and test the kernel,without rewriting the original kernel?

no I mean flash boot.img to boot and twrp to recovery as usual. I am using this TWRP - encryption only worked on very first boot (don't ask me why) but that was good enough to backup userdata and everything
