I am unable to flash TWRP using adb - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently found my old HTC desire 526g and I decided to flash a custom ROM, but its volume buttons aren't working so I had to use adb, I am not really an good in these types of things. I tried to flash TWRP on my htc using adb (Followed a YouTube tut) but this is coming up.
I have attached a screenshot below.

After unlocking bootloader (probably would have done it earlier) did you allow the usb debugging.
2) try installing adb+fastboot, platform tools and your htc drivers and keep your recovery file in the platform tools and open cmd there use the appropriate command to flash it

Hello, Thanks for replying! I think I have done everything in correct manner, but still coming thiss error, I have rooted my phone too. BTW, is there any way you can navigate through system recovery without using volume buttons (as they are not working) I mean any commands, to navigate in recovery mode using adb

So if you're rooted so you can flash recovery via twrp app on playstore, or if magisk installer for twrp exists for your phone or by flashfire if you have your working recovery

'adb reboot bootloader' will bring you fastboot mode.
'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' (while TWRP image or CWM image is renamed recovery.img and placed into the fastboot folder)will bring you TWRP/CWM.
'fastboot reboot recovery' will bring you into TWRP or CWM installed.
'fastboot reboot' will reboot you phone in case you are stuck.

This comes later now lol, Due to my lack of knowledge and not enough patience, I tried to flash custom recovery through TWRP app, and I didn't found my phone model on device list, SO i just selected random htc model phone and now it is restarting over and over again, Is there any fix to this? I am obviously a complete noob in this field.

If possible find stock recovery of that firmware version (be serious abt version) and flash it by fastboot
2) find how to unbrick htc by downloading stock rom this will make you lose all data

Even If I find the this whatever you said, how am I supposed to fix it, as I mentioned,Volume buttons aren;t working and its stuck in bootloop, it won't past its manufacturers logo, so adb is no help in it, Only way to fix it would be to fix sound buttons. sad me, Well, R.I.P. HTC Desire 526g dual sim 2015-2021

I hope that this phone is not your primary driver

[Q] EVO stuck in bootloop

Alright, so i have an EVO 4g lte and i attempted to root it today. It didnt turn out very well to say the least... I unlocked bootloader and flashed TWRP recovery.I then flashed superSU, and at the same time i flashed a custom rom and gapps zip. Then hit reboot. It has not booted up since.. It will just sit at the white HTC screen. i tried clearing cache and Dalvik cache, also did a factory reset. tried flashing cm10 rom onto the device as well as a rooted stock rom. nothing works! the farthest i have gotten was with the cm10 rom and it went to the cyanogenmod boot logo but was in bootloop still. I downloaded the ADT tool bundle but the phone wont show up on the device list. Can anyone help? im completely stumped.. Im fairly new to rooting and custom roms, but i have rooted multiple tablets and samsung galaxy phones and havent had any issues. this is my only phone also, i just gave my backup to my mother because her phone broke... please if anyone knows how to fix this let me know. when i boot into recovery mode it says Tampered and Unlocked at the top as well as S-On. I can also go into TWRP recovery with no problems. just cant use fastboot with my computer (windows 7 PC).
I am pretty sure i know what i did wrong, I flashed SuperSU to gain root at the same time i flashed the custom rom and gapps.. on all the other devices i would reboot after root and then flash the custom rom seperately.. but is there a way to correct my mistake?

Since you are s-on you have to fastboot flash the boot.img/kernel first and then flash CM and gapps
Any questions PM me

OK sorry to be a noob but how do I do that? I used cmd.exe while rooting but now it won't recognize my device. Much thanks for any help!!
Sent from my GT-P5110 using xda app

If in bootloader type fastboot devices
In recovery type adb devices
See if you get a reply

In fast boot USB menu on the phone, I typed fastboot devices on cmd and it came up blank.

Sounds like a driver issue
1.Uninstall everything HTC from your PC
2.Reboot your PC
3.Plug your phone in and it will load a bunch of drivers
4.Try the command again
If that does not work get the latest drivers from HERE use the ones dated 6/6/13
and don't forget the BMP drivers towards the bottom of post 1

OK rebooting now I'll see if it uninstalled everything.

:fingerscrossed:

OK were connected now, now what? :good:

PC and phone are talking ?
fastboot devices

yes they are talking now. fastboot devices and my phone shows up.
i tried fastboot flash boot.img but it wont recognize the command, i placed the boot.img file into the platform-tools folder inside my C drive. what am i doing wrong? its late at night and im frustrated so i know im screwing something up...

ok good BTW which version of twrp are you using? Let me know before you continue.
pull the boot.img from the rom zip and copy it to the folder you opened your cmd window from
then type fastboot boot boot.img
once it says successful press the power button to return to HBOOT and use the vol keys to navigate to recovery
Once there choose wipe and wipe cache/dalvik cahce/system/data or factory reset depending which version of twrp you are using
then flash CM and gapps

C:\Users\Corey>fastboot boot boot.img
cannot load 'boot.img': No error
thats what i typed in and thats what it said back to me. not quite sure what the problem is.
the boot.img is placed in the same folder as the fastboot application

same thing, cannot load unknown error. also i am using twrp 2.6.0.0

Ok lets try something different at least it will get you up and running
Get twrp v2.4.1.0 from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jewel
put it in the same folder you are using and we will downgrade your twrp for now
copy and paste this in the cmd window
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-jewel.img
then fastboot erase cache

ok got the twrp done succesfully as well as the wipe cache. whats next? i think i figured out what i was doing wrong, i hadnt opened the file directory. cd downloads, cd android files, etc.
should i try going into recovery now on the phone and flash a rom, or should we stay on fastboot and push the boot.img?

Easiest way to open a cmd window is to press shift and right click inside the folder and choose open cdm window here
That way you know you are in the correct folder.
Yeah go ahead and try to flash the boot.img again

[Q] No android-info.txt & android-product.txt ~I Need Help~

Hey everyone,
This is my first time posting to the forums. I have been trying to get everything done without having to ask questions since there are so many all over the place and I can see how it can get tiring trying to help everyone when their may be an answer out there already if you look. However, I have ran into an issue that I can't seem to find much information on. I have the HTC Rezound that is S-On (apparently you need a Linux machine to get S-Off which I don't have. Using Windows 7.) and have been using fastboot to get things done. I have unlocked the bootloader and have installed the 'Amon Ra' recovery and setup Superuser and SU. As far as I know, I have to use ROM's that are S-On friendly (right?) and I chose to try out 'EclipticRez' and later 'Talon'.
As I tried to flash the ROM's through fastboot it fails with the following errors every time and I cannot continue:
archive does not contain android-info.txt
archive does not contain android-product.txt
From what I found is that it may be a bad download of the ROM. Maybe.... But it happened consecutively with two different ROM downloads.
I also read that maybe the recovery wasn't setup, which as far as I know it is. Should I use a different recovery? Everyone usually references to using CWM, which I wouldn't mind using but I couldn't figure out how to get SU access.
Can I just create the files myself? They are only txt files after all.
If anyone can help me with this I will be so grateful! I'm pretty new to this and it has definitely been a fun learning experience for me
Much thanks in advance!

1) Switch to TWRP or CWM for your recovery.
2) You install the rom zip via recovery.
3) You then need to fastboot flash the kernel from the rom zip you downloaded. You don't install the whole rom via fastboot.
To borrow from the CM11 thread.
- Place the boot.img into the platform-tools folder of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Boot to the bootloader.
- Ensure your device is connected to your computer and that your device is now in fastboot mode. This is a white screen and it says fastboot on it.
- Open a Terminal (OSX or Linux) or CMD window (Windows) and cd to the platform-tools directory of the Android SDK's install directory.
- Issue this command to flash the boot.img we placed in the platform-tools folder earlier:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
- Watch the output of the terminal, it should say something like "sent successfully".
- Finally send this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Since you're s-on, you'll need to do this whenever you install a new rom. Using these steps, you can install any rom you want.

Solved!
Thank you, Mjones, I finally got it! I knew it was much easier than I was making it out to be. I was missing the kernel! Yeah, a crucial part in the process, I know
I first ran CWM and flashed the ROM over and ran the .zip through recovery (which I couldn't understand at first as I could never find it in the directory) but the installer would only go 50% and would fail... makes sense why now lol
I later flashed TWRP and backed up again after recovering from the fail. I flashed over the kernel and voila! So simple... Had to slap myself.
Thanks again! Case solved.
REV3NT3CH, that is sweet!! I have been hoping there is a way to gain s-off with Windows. I have 7 at work and 8.1 (which I can't get anything to work on) at home. I actually have to focus on work today haha so I'll look into the method and try it out tomorrow if I can. Thanks for all of the help.

Did you try this first? (Right from Moto's site)
Perform a factory reset using external keys
1. Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button, press power button
2. Screen will come up with "Fastboot", press Vol down key to cycle through choices until you get "Android Recovery", then press Vol up key
3. Wait for the "triangle ! / Android" screen then go on to step 4
4. Press both Vol up and Vol down key simultaneously. A menu will come up
5. Tap on Vol down key until "wipe data/factory reset" is highlighted, and tap Power key. Another Confirmation screen will come. Tap on Vol down key until coming to Yes and tap Power key
6. After userdata is cleared, the "reboot system now" option will be highlighted by Default. Tap Power key
7. Phone will reboot to initial setup screen.

Qualcomm is harder to flash than MTK that can use SP FlashTool.
on this I use QFIL but keeps "sahara error". I tried searching and try moving firmware file to bin but no Luck. I'm currently trying different version of QFIL Tool.
If it FAILS my only HOPE is to use MUT-QCfire which will Require a "SmartCardReader" Which is a bit pricey and I don't even know if it will work on my device.

I was trying to flash a rom and I did wrong.
The phone got stuck on the white HTC screen.
I'm trying to get it back, the problem is that when I connect to the pc is not recognized. I installed SDK Tools, adb, drivers and all.
All In One Toolkit run and try to flash the boot.img but it says "error: device not found"
I run adb commands but it says the same thing, "error: device not found"
I tried it with Venom Flasher but I can not solve.
I uninstalled and went back to install the drivers, but I still have the same result, I run out of options.
When I turn the phone enters fastboot, I can access the recovery, but the phone at this time does not rom, dead.
By mistake I went to lock the bootloader but today I unlock it again with the All In One Toolkit and the bin file, so do not understand why if the file could flasher to unlock the bootloader again, but when trying to flash the boot.img or execute commands like: adb devices, adb reboot bootloader throws the error "device not found"
I appreciate it can help me ...

ADB commands are only recognized in recovery or when system is running. re-unlock your bootloader first. you can reboot into bootloader by pressing and holding power & volume-down button. navigate using volume buttons and enter fastboot by pressing power button. Now you can flash boot.img with "fastboot flash boot boot.img" or using any One X+ compatible toolkit. If it doesn't work, try installing latest HTC sync on your computer to get latest drivers. you can uninstall htc sync later again, the drivers will remain installed.

Did you do a wipe in before flashing the new rom?
Anyway you can copy a new rom.zip onto your phone using "adb sideload rom.zip" or "adb push rom.zip /data/media/0" while you're in recovery. Then do a full wipe first, flash rom and don't forget to flash boot.img.

ADB may take some time to recognize your device in recovery. Try "adb devices" first and if it isn't listed as in recovery or sideload, wait some minutes and try again. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes though.
But you have installed latest drivers?

Your phone needs to be in recognized as in sideload mode in order to use adb sideload. when recognized in recovery, try "adb push rom.zip /data/media/0", this will copy your rom onto your phones internal memory. Depending on rom size, this may take some minutes and there's no progress bar/display, so give it some time, 10 min should be enough.

I'm trying to flash twrp.I have gone step by step I can't think of anything that I forgot to do, I did everything that was mentioned here and other places even my device is detected in both adb & fastboot.but I can't flash twrp
I tried these:
1-adb devices
returned a serial number
2-rebooted to bootloader using:
adb reboot bootloader
3-fastboot devices
returned device id(I think)
4-fastboot flash recovery.img
returned error
5-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
returned error either "command not allowed" or "Operation is not permited"
6-Different combinations of above commands plus flashing command
What is flashing .... in fastboot.It doesn't work. It acts like an unknown command. Does anyone know how to use it correctly? Help of fastboot didn't help
(Attached screenshots=CMD:Command Line in Windows,SCL-U31:My phone screen in fastboot mode)
See it for yourself in screenshot please
Thanks in advance!
P.S I read a lot of other threads,I Couldn't Find anything that helped me solving the problem,So,Any further idea?

No luck still
Guys I'm tryings to flash an stupid twrp recovery or at least get back to original recovery(All firmware packages are in UPDATE.app format and I can't flash it since It says "recovery image verification failed) . System needs its original recovery to do factory reset,right?

Tell me where to go!!!
Any luck? At least please tell me where to go!! I even mentioned it in a lot of other related xda threads they simply tell me it's a stupid OFF Topic replay or thread. I might be a junior member in xda but it's been years that I worked with a lot of phones and now I'm pretty experienced. Bad luck of mine I damaged my note 3 and got this stupid Y6. It was hard to root unlocking bootloader and now I can't flash twrp in fastboot or whatever. Wishing there was a proper tool like odin for devices like this so it was easy to flash twrp. Anyway.
HELP ME PLEASE!!

What error gave you when you tried to do this command "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
Be sure to have usb debugging enabled.

Of course I did. And also device is being detected in both adb and fastboot.
As I already mentioned I used flash recovery recovery.img(or twrp.img I have two versions of recovery that I can flash)
The error is=remote operation is not allowed or sometimes operation is not permitted(which seems to have same meaning )

OK then.
You can root your device with kingroot/kingoroot, it worked in the past for Huawei Y6, after you rooted your device install flashify and press on "Recovery image" after you granted root access to the app.After that click on select file, download this recovery for y6: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754472815 and flash the recovery with Flashify.
Done!
I am not responsible for Bricked devices!
After you done all of that you can flash an custom ROM and I recommend to root with magisk. Always make an backup when flashing a ROM!
If I helped a Thanks is appreciated

You uploaded a twrp recovery on AFH just for me? Thank you,man!I appreciate your help. I really do! But Believe it or not I already tried flashify,Rashr and flashfire. These three cause same thing,when I reboot to recovery it says "recovery image verification failed"Then quickly goes to fastboot&rescue mode where I can't still flash twrp using flash command.

Not nice to hear that.
What you could try to do is:
Factory reset/Install an update.app made for SCL-U31 from recovery
Enable Usb debugging again
Reinstall usb drivers (HiSuite)
Lock&Unlock your bootloader again
Try to flash TWRP
Im happy if this worked and i am sorry if i wasted your time, sometimes this happens if you don't have HiSuite installed.
You could try this too:
adb reboot bootloader
adb kill-server
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
Attention, install HiSuite to your PC, Connect the Phone to the PC with the cable, make sure You have usb debbuing is enabled and accept any dialogs that show in your home screen(They do not show on lockscreen) wait so HiSuite installs on the phone(An dialog should show up on the PC) and try flashing TWRP again.
Good luck

You can find about by typing

Can't get into recovery to flash updated rom

Hi all,
I appear to have done something wrong when flashing my device with boombox and flashing twrp. I seem not to be able to access recovery so I can update my boombox rom. I have tried button combinations, I have tried fastboot boot twrp.img in bootloader which just reboots my system, I have tried booting directly from home screen using adb which registers an error and I have tried re-flashing but unfortunately I cannot access recovery.
Any way I can get into recovery without erasing my data?

If you're rooted, give the reboot recovery app you installed after bootloader unlock root privileges.
If not then use the exact same PC ADB commands to boot to TWRP like during bootloader unlock.
I'm confused why you mention flashing TWRP after Boombox. Surely you didn't do that. You already had TWRP.

I am rooted, Recovery reboot just reboots the phone, I have tried to get into twrp by reinstalling but again does the same things just reboots the system after the corruption warning screen. I've also tried to install from the bootloader with the fastboot boot twrp.img command but it simply says waiting for device.

Sorry turns out I was flashing the wrong file from another tutorial, I was flashing 3.1.1 instead of 3.2.1

Then you didn't follow my bootloader unlock and root guide. I never mention that other TWRP, much less link to it.

You're going to have to load into Download mode and use fastboot commands, but you say you couldn't get past flashing TWRP.
Uninstall the LG Mobile Driver if you have them, then reinstall.
1st, reboot into OS, then open up Device Manager and change view to Show hidden devices. You should see a new category named 'ADB Interface' and underneath that 'Fastboot Interface (Google USB ID)'.
If not, you will also see 'ADB Device' for Other Devices category:
right click that to update driver software ---> Browse my computer for driver software ---> Let me pick from a list... ---> Show all Devices ---> Have Disk ---> Browse ---> C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LG Mobile Driver ---> 'lgandbus' ---> 'LGE ADB Mobile Interface'
Download adb/fastboot software, download Joan TWRP 3.2.1 img file and place it in adb/fastboot folder, then send your phone into Download mode:
Open up cmd and type the following after changing directory to Adb/fastboot folder: fastboot devices (see if your device is there), fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img or (whatever file is named).img, then fastboot boot TWRP.img or (whatever file is named).img
