Hi. I am rooted s-off and unlocked with sunshine and I wanted a custom recovery so I tried after downloading the right one for my m8 to flash it with flasify app from the play store cause I had no luck with fastboot from the computer. Now I am at the state when I boot at recovery it shows the twrp but when I hit the button to do a nandroid back up it fails can't do it. Any idea why is that and what can I do? Can I flash with flasify cwm recovery over the other or better how I return to stock recovery to start over to have better luck?
Any help will be much appreciated cause I am new to all that[emoji6]

So after i flashed a rom on my P5200 i always bootloop to TWRP
and i tried to wipe all data but no use
so please someone help me
oh and i can access download mode
TWRP causes problems...at least it did mine.. Restore the backup (hopefully you made one) with TWRP and flash a different recovery, like clockwork mod (CWM).

i did not do a backup !!!
what should i do?
Power it off completely boot up in Download mode. Then connect it to the PC and use Odin to flash CWM on it.
For future reference, always make a backup before you do ANYTHING.

Im pretty sure your rom that you are running is corrupted, this has happened to me
when this happens recovery will not let you run that ROM. So it will
keep rebooting into recovery. Try this, go into recovery Wipe Data,Cache and Dalvik
then reboot, if it still doesn't work try flashing a Rom.
my rom is the orginal sumsung rom that came with the device only rooted.
i will try wiping the data/cach/dalvik and then maybe restore an old backup that i have.
thanks for the advice.
well it didnt work.
i also tried to recover a working version of my rom and still boot loop to recovery.
plus when i power it off and connect the power cord it startup automaticaly to recovery.

I think The onlyest way is to flash a Stockrom to your Tab.
Then try to flash a Recovery to your Tab again, but i prefere CWM or Philz Touch not TWRP.
maybe i should install philz on top of twrp and then restore old backup?
i dont think i can get the orignal frimware form samsung in my country.

The prob is, only with CWM or Philz you restore Backups froh there, is The backup froh TWRP you need TWRP as Recovery.
Download from sam The Version what is in The box .
well i found the orginal rom in .img file at samfirmware. i belive its pure stock - i know that someone of you can confrim this - but how to i flash it?
i belive is with odin buth as for the instracion. is it like flashin recovery with odin? if so i will follow that instracation and give it a go.
I have the same problem, did anybody figure this out?
ended up just reflashing the stock rom from odin instead of twrp and it worked.
Fix

So I've done this before, attempting to install a different type of ROM, the only way to repair this is to return to stock via Odin. Download the stock rom in the 10.1 dev thread, reboot into download, and flash via Odin.
I for some reason can't get the stock recovery to flash the root file or any stock firmware. Also I can't get it to change recoveries for some reason I've tried in terminal with a few different ones and tried flashing the stock one also but it won't change. Does anything know how to fix this? Is there a back to stock thing I can flash it? I've been searching for days with no luck. Thanks

You have to flash the latest stock recovery! They patched the stock recovery and hashed for that!
Flash a custom recovery and make a nandroid backup. Save your backup for security reasons to your pc then install coloros completely new from 1.2.1and only update it with ota to 1.2.4 . Now use fastboot to boot from a custom recovery like Philz.(fastboot boot recovery.img)
Recovery.img should be replaced with the name of your recovery. Twrp won't work for this plan!, cause it don't backs up the recovery. Now make again a backup. Save the recovery.img from backup safely. Now restore your old backup and flash the captured stock recovery. Tada now your ota update should work fine!
Cheers
got it thanks a lot!! got root and that custom recovery worked! thanks again!!

Thanks for answering. But I want to have stock recovery not custom like CWM, TWRP or alike.
I flashed a new rom yesterday and tried to go back and flash a kernel but I can't get into recovery. Just a black screen 705 fastboot
I installed twrp and tried reinstalling recovery but still didn't work
Ideas?

Twrp should still be there. That rom you installed probably had a incompatible kernel which is what is sending you into fastboot. If you cant get into recovery for some off the wall reason flash back to stock with a tot or kdz.
any off the wall ideas on how to get into recovery

Am I to understand this as you installed the TWRP Manager apk? Or do we read this as TWRP is the recovery you had originally installed? (Not trying to be funny here)
If the TWRP Manager was used from within the ROM, instead, use Flashify to reflash the recovery, not TWRP manager. Get the IMG file from HERE first, and tell flashify where you saved it.
If you are completely unable to boot as well as not access recovery, you will have to start from scratch. Follow THESE instructions to get back to stock and start over. (Choose Restoring Stock/Removing Root Flag)
