Hey guys,
So I had 5.1 on my Canvas A1 with Root+TWRP Recovery. To get 5.1.1, I unrooted and installed stock recovery to get the OTA. Now, I have an unlocked bootloader, but I can't install TWRP or any other Custom Recovery. I followed the videos and tutorials on how to install custom recovery and there doesn't seem to any problem, but then when I open the recovery mode, I get that "No Command" screen of the stock recovery. I hold power+up to get into that, but even then when I try to root the device by installing SuperSU.zip, it displays some problem:
failed to verify whole-file signature
signature verification failed
installation aborted

Please help.
The phone's running well, in other aspects. But I'd really like it to be rooted again.
Thanks in advance.

when you get NO COMMAND WINDOW there is a hidden key to access RECOVERY MODE
ON THE WINDOW says NO COMMAND PRESS AND HOLD POWER BUTTON AND VOLUME UP AGAIN YES Do it again
dude its a slave asking for its master to give command. so give the command.
IT works with most phone with stock recovery and with My Canvas A1 too... :victory:

try this ,
flash recovery using fastboot " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and immediately boot into recovery using command "fastboot boot recovery.img" , when you are in recovery reboot into recovery again but now from recovery( there will be option in recovery to do this).... now check if you have custom recovery or not ....
Solved!
Thanks, guys for your suggestions. But I used Android One Toolkit, and that worked like a charm. It installed a custom PHILZ Recovery + re-rooted my Canvas A1. Thanks for your inputs anyway. :good:

Hi,
I have the Find 7 with the new display panel.
I wanted to flash the latest version of TWRP but failed. I do not know what I did wrong.
I can use adb and fastboot without any problem. When trying to flash recovery, it says there that the flash was successful but when I reboot to recovery, TWRP was not installed and the original Oppo recovery is still there.
The bootloader is unlocked. And I tried relocking and unlocking again but to no avail. Whenever I use the command "fastboot oem unlock", nothing happens to the phone.
I am currently on spectrum. I want to try other roms such as the lite COS 2.15 and also maxwen roms since that only those supports the new panel.
I am also trying to get root for my phone and it is impossible without custom recovery.
Thanks for any help.
I had poop loads of issues with getting custom recovery on my Find 7a. Eventually I used these instructions:
http://community.oppo.com/my/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=996
They work. Don't know if it's the versions of ADB or Fastboot or something.
Give it a go

I will give it a go when I get back. Thanks!
This is what a forumer from the official forum said and it works:
After you had successfully flash recovery via fastboot, you MUST NOT reboot the device. AFAIK, if you reboot the device it will restore the recovery back to stock oppo recovery.
So instead, you need to immediately press vol down & power button on the fastboot screen. Keep holding the button until you see the TWRP recovery screen. Hope that helps. Cheers!""

Unlocking bootloader erases data?
Mine wouldn't flash recovery. It said successful but I still had oppo recovery 1.2 and it only worked when I found the latest official twrp over version 3. after flashing, I disconnected usb and then held down power button to shut the phone down. It then was able to boot to twrp ok.
I used the latest one.

Hi, I'm new to android rooting and flashing stuffs. I have Asus Zenfone 2 16gb version.
My frnd rooted my device and installed superSU (something like that) but the xmod app was not working, so my frnd gave me this Kingo root apk he told me that it will work. so I installed that kongo root..it says some files needed to be fix, so I presses ok..after the prosecco is done, I reboot my phone..but it stuck in loading. after that I'm finding solution to boot it back normally. I tried flashing new firmware which I downloaded from the asus website, but It failed in 48%, some one told me to flash TWRP recovery, so I flash TWRP recovery from adb sideload, after that I was not be able to go in recovery mode. I press for recovery mode...my phone restarts and again loads the fastboot or bootloader screen. after that I tried to flash other recovery image. but still I cant go in recovery mode. PLEASE HELP!!
You should not flash custom recovery with a lock bootloader. Unlock your bootloader first.
You dont sideload a recovery img. Go to bootloader, then enter this adb command
fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery image) .img
PS. Xmod dont work on intel based android processor. Correct me if Im wrong, Ive read that a long time ago.
I've got a rooted phone w/ an unlocked bootloader.
I've installed TWRP using ADB.
When I try to get into recovery (by using the physical buttons while booting) nothing happens. When I try to get into recovery via ADB, I get "no devices found"
What am I doing wrong?
Some background:
I flashed KK 4.4 using Flashtool.
Then I successfully installed and accessed TWRP. I tried and failed to install a custom ROM (AICP), but couldn't get it to sideload.
At that point, my device had no OS, so I re-flashed KK4.4, hoping that I could get the ADB sideload to work if I started from the beginning.
But now I'm back at the beginning, and I can't even get into recovery.
When I flash TWRP via fastboot, it successfully writes. But I can't boot into recovery.
Please help!
Disregard. I was able to access TWRP after I flashed the boot.img that came in the original platform tools.
It goes without saying that once I flash that boot.img, I'm unable to get into KK 4.4. I am, however, able to get back to TWRP, where hopefully I'll be able to flash a ROM.
Once again, however, I'm not able to flash AICP. It fails every single time.

You can try to pull boot img from aicp and flash it in two, then try to flash the rom, but not sure. You may have to flash LP first, just use a prf. Also, if you use Emma to update bootloader, (if you didn't already), then you can use real recovery, (twrp 3+), and it should work.

I just finished process myself, just to test, and works fine-
1. Download Emma
2. Download twrp3
3. Download Kingroot
4. Download Rashr
Plug phone into computer in flash mode after starting Emma, and you'll see option to flash newest fw. After flashing, restart and install Kingroot. After rooting, use Rashr to flash twrp3. Then power off, and hold power and volume down to enter recovery.

THANK YOU! I'm not sure what prf or Emma are, but I'll find out on my own.
Is there any way to do this that doesn't involve KingRoot? The whole "sends your info to a Chinese IP" aspect of KingRoot creeps me out.

two ways:
1) after you install the rom using EMMA connect the phone in fastboot mode and flash Advanced Kernel 18.1. it comes with its own twrp recovery. then boot to recovery and flash SuperSU zip.
2) after you install the rom using EMMA connect the phone in fastboot mode and flash TWRP recovery, then boot to recovery and flash SuperSU zip.

Thank you!!! Eager to try these.
Is SuperSU zip secure? Do we know that it's not Chinese malware?
Can't get into recovery -z1c (amami)
I unlocked bootloader, have installed TWRP 3, then LineageOS through TWRP. But now i can't access recovery (twrp).
-Phone powers up
-pink light
-immediately i press volume up (volume down doesn't do anything)
-orange light shows for a second
-phone restarts normally
----------------------
So how can i access twrp recovery mode?

Haven't tried Lineage yet, but with CM, they had their own recovery which had to be overwritten after flash. Boot up, install Rashr, flash TWRP IMG with Rashr, then try again.
Also, real recovery is a good idea, if you don't have it yet. You need to flash stock with Sony Emma tool, then you have ta update, with real recovery capability.

unlock bootloader and retry that step untill you can get custom recovery.
I mean, you may need to reflash recovery image many times.

Hey Guys,
somehow, I seem to be too dumb to install TWRP to my new dumpling. I did the following:
- run the official updates (9.0.3 Pie)
- unlock the bootloader using adb
- successfully flash the latest TWRP recovery (twrp-3.2.3-1 dumpling from their HP)
So far, no problems at all. Then I booted directly into recovery, so it won't be overwritten again: I tried unplug + Power/Volume Down, command "fastboot reboot recovery" and selecting recovery from the menu. But everytime I end up with the beautiful stock recovery, I never even saw the TWRP interface.
Any suggestions ? Any help would be much appreciated!!
My only idea: The latest TWRP is from 08/2018, maybe its not compatible to Pie ?!

hi dude, to stay on TWRP you have to flash MAGISK, if not TWRP will always be overwritten by the StockRecovery!!
flash TWRP
reboot into TWRP
flash Magisk within TWRP
reboot system
happy flashing!

hi dude, sorry - now i got you
# after flashed TWRP unplug your device and reboot directly into the bootloader-mode (‘Volume Up’ + ‘Power’ button altogether) and navigate to 'Recovery' or
# fastboot boot 'recovery.img'
i recommend flashing twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_treble-op5_op5t.img : https://github.com/engstk/android_device_oneplus_cheeseburger/releases
SOLVED
I tried the 9.x recovery from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-8-0-8-1-t3729673
works like a charm!
I thougth, the official TWRP site would be the best source, but well... lesson learnt. Anyway, thanks for trying to help, nicorvienne
