Hi,
i found a simliar thread that was talking about a similar subject, but didn't answer my question. i have lost it and cant find that same thread for help.
rooted -flashed bad rom - everything keeps closing(apps, Google sync)--- cant get int to recovery mode because of error
****I unlocked bootloader and rooted my GalaxyNex. then installed ROM maneger. i flashed CWM,then backed up my ROM. i tested it by flashing my backed up ROM, after i had messed around and my phone went back to normal. i was feeling safe. i noticed that i was having trouble getting into the recovery mode because of the belly open with exclamation Point. i read that it is because CWM was losing permission? i found that i just had to re-flash CWM every time right before i go into recover mode. i flashed a ROM from ROM maneger and everything worked until i turned the phone on. i cant sync Google account, and basically all apps close immediately (no key board too). I cant get into recovery mode and i cant down load ROM maneger to try to re-flash CMW to restore from older ROM.
I am sorry if this is already been answered i have try to find my situation but i couldn't.
I tried to re-flash the clock work recover image through the terminal of my mac but it says permission denied... i guessing i need to find a way to re flash to stock from fastboot is this possible ?
Pull the battery and hold power + volume and get into fast boot. Flash stock images from here

Thanks I got really lucky i was able to re flash Clock work recovery in fast boot with the command
./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-toro.img
then i was able to get into the proper recovery mode and re flash my backed up image.
if i wanted to re flash a original image would the terminal command look like this
./fastboot flash recovery "Imagename" ? i might have just got lucky but i am guessing thats how you re-flash something to your phone?
now that i have gotten back to the beginning, why is it that i have to re flash CMW every time to get in correct recovery mode? or how do i stop it from giving me the recovery error when trying to get to the correct recovery mode?
thanks again
Glad your good! Hate to see these threads but we all go through it sooner or later

After you fastboot flash the CWM image, use ADB, a terminal, or a file explore to remove or rename the file /system/recovery-from-boot.p
Hi everyone.
I was able to successfully unlock the bootloader and root the phone.
However, I have trouble trying to get into the Clockwork Recovery Mode. Every time I try I just get a message saying that this is a special distribution and some other legal stuff. I can't get into recovery mode.
Anyone else have this problem and fix it? If so, how so? I would like to install some custom ROMs.
Have u flashed the recovery in fastboot?. The screen with red letters is normal.it shows u have installed custom firmware on ur phone.

I believe I have. I have also done it via the Clockwork Mod app.
How would I go about making backups and installing custom roms?
For that u have to flash custom recovery. Flash it again...
Download appropriate recovery.img for ur phone. place it in fastboot folder.rename it recovery.img.go into fastboot n connect phone 2 pc.it should say fastboot USB. Now use command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img while in fastboot( not in boatloader screen).

I think I did that. But I will try again

Did it twice, unfortunately all I get is the disclaimer instead of the Clockword Mod recovery options. I can't even do a factory reset.
Here is what I used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1635520
Still doesn't work.
If you flashed the clockworkmod recovery.img via fastboot and it says successful it should be on there. The HTC disclaimer boot screen is normal. You must boot into the bootloader and select recovery to get into clockworkmod.
The only recovery I can get working is Team Win. I Unfortunately after I install a rom it either freezes at the disclaimer or the rom reboots the system. The I can't even restore the stock recovery.
Any advice?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
TWRP is more convenient than clockworkmod for this particular phone in my opinion. When flashing rom don't forget you have to flash boot.img (kernel) from the rom (usually extracted from the zip). If your having problems with roms you may have to RUU back to stock.

Now whenever I try to go into recovery mode, I have the samsung logo which breaks down. After a while it will boot and I can use it. It's not bricked. It just won't go into recovery. I have installed Titaniumbackup and ROM manager and I don't know what to do. The cwm that I flashed through Odin said cmw6 but when I choose the version on ROM manager for recovery setup, I chose ClockworkMod 3.x+ and my phone says current recovery at cwm 5.x.x.x and I still can't acces recovery mode! Please help it is very frustrating for me. Thank you for reading.

If you dont have a recovery which u should yes it will allow you too if you have root access and if you want to install twrp recovery install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager and open the app hit the menu key you should see a list of options one being install openrecovery, tap in that one it will ask if you are sure you want to write recovery image to your device just click yes and bam you should now have a recovery
How did it go?

my phone is doing the same thing. i rooted it and then i tried to boot into recovery to install a ROM. the logo comes up and then shakes all over the place and then goes to a black screen. then nothing. i have to press the power button and it boots up normally to the regular phone. i downloaded goo manager and tried to install a recover but it loads for a second and then says no recovery found.
is there a way to install a custom rom using odin? i can bypass recovery using odin right? or does that not work?

You can install a custom recovery using Odin (twrp being one of them). Very few roms are installed using Odin.

Having problem custom recovery not sticking after odin flash.am on stock 4.12 w/root.have used odin 1.85 & 3.1.have tried twrp & cwm.always reverts back to stock recovery at reboot.
There used to be a unbrick/back to stock app w/root for earlier galaxies.that kept me out of a lot of trouble.since I'm on att note 4 w/locked bootloaders,I haven't paid much attention to what's available now.
any ideas why recovery isn't sticking.any help appreciated.thnx

Open Odin, uncheck everything except f reset time. Flash TWRP. When you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove USB cable from the phone, remove battery, replace battery, use buttons to boot into recovery.
Thnx for reply.before I saw your reply,I tried the rashr app from playstore.it worked first try.i had tried goomanager,quick boot and some of the other apps with no luck.
Thnx again.now I can flash a more current rom.

But I can't get in recovery mode.
I'm trying to root like so http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/kernel-t3232651 because I've already have 6.0 and I'm stuck....
Anyone can help please??
Edit: You don't actually need to use fastboot commands... it's just annoyingly counter intuitive.
Here's what works to boot into recovery after it's been flashed:
Turn phone off
Hold power and volume down
Release power for a half second when the LG logo appears then press and hold again
Unit will boot to white LG recovery asking if you want to wipe all data
Confirm yes twice
Unit will boot to TWRP recovery
-----------------
I had this problem earlier. You have to use fastboot commands to boot into it.
Change twrp-2.8.7.0-h815 to match your twrp file name
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0-h815.img
Fastboot boot twrp-2.8.7.0-h815.img

but it doesn't read my sdcard and bluetooth...
When I was installing twrp and CM13 on my G4, I tought that I can't access twrp either. When pressing vol down+power I got to the default screen with only option to factory reset. So I used the above command to access it. But I noticed, that if I go through that factory reset thingy, it will go to twrp without factory reset. So after you get to factory reset recovery, answer yes to the first question and then yes to the second one and you'll get to twrp.
So to get this straight
1 adb reboot bootloader
2 fastboot flash recovery.....
3 fastboot boot TWRP......
Then I can backup my current setup and then flash any Rom from there just like with my Samsung using TWRP after that then I can enter recovery via the power and volume down buttons?

Even after installing CM13 I still got default recovery with vol down+power, but was able to enter twrp when rebooting from CM13 using something like twrp manager.
But as I said above, you get to twrp by going through "factory reset" from default recovery. It will not do factory reset.
I personally went with Genisys 3.6 ROM after trying CM13 for a few days. Picture quality suffered too much for my liking, and miracast support was also lost with CM13. With Genisys ROM everything works well.
Hi all. Yesterday I rooted my ze551ml and tried to flash twrp onto my device. It was not successful and now I have no stock recovery. When I try to enter recovery by pushing the power button, it just returns to normal boot. I unlocked my bootloader with a file I found in the zenfone general section. How do I go about flashing the stock recovery. I downloaded a stock firmware from Asus and extracted it. But the recovery does not show up as a recovery.img. can someone give me some assistance or point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

I have tried flashing twrp with twrp manager and it says successful. But when I try to enter recovery, it goes back to normal boot. No dead android. I have downloaded the firmware package for my phone and extracted the files. I found the recovery, but it does not appear to be a recovery.img file. I believe I need and image file to flash through ADB.

I don't know then I have no time today , all stuff is in that link re flashing recovery , stock or custom , full firmware etc etc ..you have minimal fastboot and adb installed ? Drivers etc , your fone is recognised in adb ? eg, adb devices ?
What I would do , is fastboot flash recovery.img (twrp) and be done with it .Although if you have damaged other stuff ..flash full firmware , all info is in the link ..
@quicksilver53 Are you saying that you wiped your Bootloader? Otherwise, if you've unlocked your Bootloader, go into Fast boot and flash the latest TWRP IMG with adb tools using the command "fast boot flash recovery TWRP.img"

I have tried to flash the latest TWRP recovery with those commands. It fails to flash. My bootloader has been unlocked with the unlock and relock program I found in the General section. I also have root. I have used root checker to verify. When I try to enter recovery, it goes right back to normal boot. I get no dead Android nor bootloader menu. I think when I tried to flash TWRP, it deleted my stock recovery. I am at a loss here. I never had this happen when flashing on my HTC one x or M7.

I don't think your Bootloader is unlocked properly. Try unlocking again, as I myself have wiped my recovery partition more than once. The fast boot flash never fails me.

Thank you for your efforts timbernot. I am on .174. I did download the stock recovery but for my build, but was unable to flash it. It showed up as recovery in my download folder. It is my understanding that I have to ad .img to it when I flash" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". I will leave it for this evening as I am terribly frustrated at the moment. I'll try again on the weekend.
