TWRP installation on MM - HELP! - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to install the TWRP img files (here https://dl.twrp.me/h815/) and none of them seem to work. after adb'ing to recovery, i only get an android icon with a " ! " on it. i've been installing TWRPs with my other phones and they work fine except for my H815
i'm on v20a, bootloader is unlocked, marshmallow. i'm using h815, vd2 (vodafone germany)
is there something wrong that i'm doing?

However, how do I go to TWRP without using adb? it keeps going back to the stock recovery

When you flash the recovery.IMG , the file has to be saved on your computer and phone.

i can now type in adb reboot recovery and TWRP works!
now, my next problem is.. how do you do the button command when powered off to go to TWRP? the usual recovery buttons still go to the stock ones (where you factory reset everything)

So first unplug your phone from your pc otherwise it won't work.
Than I had the same as you in the picture with the recovery 'stuck' but for it simply worked if I reboot straight again into recovery via the three buttons.
Hope I could help

Different stock recovery only can install certain ROM? I tried B125 already cannot. Any other recommend ROM for me to try? I rmb I flashed a quite latest stock recovery
then try the b510 or the b634..
jb recovery can only install jb rom..so do kk recovery only install kk rom as i know..
if nothing brings success try the unicom rom..

You still have your usb cable plugged in. It will NOT work like that. @taaeem has already mentioned that.
What was the previous firmware that you had installed?
If it was a Chinese firmware, you need to try flashing this file first: https://mega.co.nz/#!8kcVADpB!JKeDlX4WQhmAP3mclNTfIzIjVllw5sMhnrj-3KSpSc4
maybe the sdcard causes this error too..had this with a 16gb fuji card..with a 8gb noname it worked..
and unplug your phone before flashing..as mentioned..

hi miz_pimp, if i do not plug in the usb cable, it will directly go into fail as showed in the picture124 i attached below, I do not rmb what firmware i installed previously, but I did a full wipe, I do not think thr is still firmware inside beside stock recovery.

then try to flash the b512 rom by the force update method (press and hold the buttons until you see the update process starting!)..

if there was a cn firmware on your device (as mentioned) then search for the unicom firmware and read how to flash this and do a eventually downgrade at first)..

Have you tried the file that I linked to above?
I think your problem is that you flashed the incorrect recovery version for the firmware you had on your device.
Unless you used TWRP to completely wipe your device before you flashed your stock recovery (which was not at all necessary), then you should still have a firmware on your device.

How to get root on Nougat

Hi folks ! i have read a lot but getting confused somehow. Can anyone tell me or guide how to root my HTC 10 on Nougat ?
Unlock bootloader
Flash latest TWRP
Flash latest SuperSU
Beware Unlocking bootloader resets phone
Make sure to Nandroid backup
Better would be to flash Magisk to obtain systemless MagiskSU. This will keep SafetyNet working which is needed for Apps like Android Pay and so on to run and work. On the other hand you can in addition install some miss without even modifying system which would enable you to just flash stick recovery and install official OTAs as soon as they hit.

Bootloader needs to be unlocked. TWRP is compatible to Nougat - see TWRP thread. Latest Magisk can be found in the Magisk forum. Yes you can flash mods and install root Apps if you flash Magisk as it will flash MagiskSU as well.
All can be found in the respective threads, named above.

Detail your steps, please. Exactly what TWRP version are you trying to flash, and where did you get the TWRP (link to it)? Did you check the MD5 hash of the TWRP you flashed? https://twrp.me/, besides supplying all the official versions of TWRP for the HTC 10 "pme", also gives a link to the MD5 hash of each version in small print on the Download page for the version you choose "md5 for twrp-3.2.1-2-pme.img".
How are you trying to get into TWRP once you flash it? On the 10, after holding the Volume Down and Power buttons to boot into Download mode, choose "reboot to bootloader", then from the bootloader choose "boot to recovery mode".
I haven't been on Nougat since 8.0 came out so I can't personally test the latest TWRP with it, but if there's any problem with the latest versions with Nougat I'm sure it'd be mentioned in the TWRP thread here in the HTC 10 Development section. Have you asked about this issue there?

Hey, thanks for the quick reply mate.
Bootloader unlocked through the HTCDev site instructions. DL mode shows device unlocked, software modified, and S-On. SD Card is inserted. Fastboot in download mode to flash every .img listed on twrp and all .img files from the unofficial list. Didn't check the MD5's, thought it was pretty unlikely that all failed, but I'll try that when I'm out of work. Attempting to flash from Download Mode, using "fastboot flash recovery twrp***.img", *** changing per version. From bootloader mode, when I choose "Boot to recovery mode", I get the HTC logo + red disclaimer, then a reboot, more HTC logo + red disclaimer, then back into bootloader mode. Google searches have suggested using unofficial TWRP 3.0.3-6 or 3.0.3-9, but these files are nowhere to be found anymore. DL links here on xda seem to have been removed. 3.0.3-10 and -11 produce the same error as all other .img files. I've tried this on a machine at home and a machine at my job, so that's two different networks as well.
As a secondary, I've also tried "fastboot erase recovery" a few times before flashing TWRP images, same result.
Edit (2/3/18 @ 16:01): Verified the MD5 hashes, everything has downloaded correctly. Even if anyone has a copy of the 3.0.3-6 or -9 .img files, I'd be willing to try those out too.

Looking for NPPS25.137-93-14 fastboot firmware

Could somebody provide full untouched fastboot firmware with build number NPPS25.137-93-14 for DualSIM Moto G5 (XT1676) with reteu software channel and 3GB RAM/16GB ROM, please? Thanks in advance.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/official-stock-moto-g5-cedric-firmware-t3733897
I have been looking for it during several weeks too, no success until now. I found 137-92-14, which is built for other software channels. It works well in my XT1685 (Dual sim 3GB/32GB reteu).
Still looking for 137-93-14... Regards.
Doesn't XT1685 equal G5 Plus?

You can flash older recovery without bricking the phone. However, don't do that if you are running CustomROM. In my case, when I wanted to revert to fully updated stock, I flashed NPPS25.137-93-8 firmware without gpt, bootloader (that's what would brick the phone if flashed) and erase modem commands, updated it to NPPS25.137-93-12, then to NPPS25.137-93-14 using stock recovery and these files https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BkpfHvgQ477NViLYvzgv88Fgq3SSt5Py. No issues at all and my phone (XT1676, 3/16, DualSIM, reteu) is still working fine.
In the attachment, I'll put recovery.zip (with recovery.img inside of it) of the NPPS25.137-93-8. Use at your own risk, if you are interested.

But thing is: I'm currently on NPPS25.137-93-12 with TWRP and Magisk. As a proof of concept I want to go to *-14 via OTA to see if it is possible... And if so: to make the oreo jump when available for my channel (XT1671, 2 sim, retla). I want to avoid losing all my data or any long task that would keep me offline for a long time... Daily driver both work and personal...
Uninstalling Magisk reverts boot.img to stock.... but I still need the stock recovery.img to be in 100% stock state (but unlocked). That's the theory.
Tried yesterday using other recovery.img versions, but failed: /cache/recovery/last_log shows the Blur* OTA file updater-script explicitly checks recovery version to be either source or destination versions... So *-12 or *-14.
After that, updater-script checks boot, system and oem. Those are (will be, supposedly) stock since Magisk only patches boot.img and I'll uninstall it .... should work...
The longer path of flashing other version and do the OTAs is also possible... But I'd have to be on vacation or something...
Thanks again.

Try one more time with file in the attachment of this reply. Although you will get "Image signed with key bad key" (because it's simply extracted from NPPS25.137-93-14), it should flash just fine. In my case, I've tried to flash it with fully updated phone to NPPS25.137-93-14, no issues at all. However, you should be more careful if you are running .12 firmware - this is stock and newer recovery (recovery of .14 firmware). .
Okay, so there are already 2 files in the attachment, first one contains recovery.img of .12 firmware, second one of the .14 firmware. You can recognize them by name of the file. With each of them, you will still get "Image signed with key bad key" message when flashing, but they flash just fine and everything seems to be working flawlessly on my phone with coresponding firmware version (means .12 recovery for .12 firmware, .14 recovery for .14 firmware). Once again, you are doing it at your own risk if you decide to.

Thanks. I'll test tonight.
"Bad key" is no problem... Got it twice already by testing with other versions I was able to get.
As for it being from *-14, it should work if I believe the updater script checking for either *-12 recovery (source) or *-14 recovery (target)... We'll see.

Another question: are you extracting them from your own phone? If so, how? Untill now I only found possible by rooting, but rooting means changing recovery in first place... So... Hen and egg...

Yes, I rooted my phone by Magisk and used app called Flashify to backup recovery. However, to root, I didn't install TWRP permanently by "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command, I just booted into it by "fastboot boot twrp.img", so I was able to root my phone and keep stock recovery installed.

Thanks. I had been reading about it and some posts were misleading saying it was no longer possible and others said it was. Had not gotten down to test it yet. So now I know it works, I'll do it. Thanks again.

Update: tested.
good: Recovery image -12 worked without issue and updater-script check passed.
bad: it failed while validating boot.img.
Apparently, Magisk uninstall did not restore the boot partition to stock. I also had a TWRP backup from when I had just unlocked. Restored boot. No luck. Maybe I took the backup *after* rooting.
well... I guess I will have to wait until I have some free time to do the long way: full flash
EDIT: @Andrej_SK: would you by any chance have the boot.img of *-12 too?
thanks!!
I am reading this tread form more then 2 days. I already told you I can help but it seems no one want know what I am saying. But it's now seem a serious tread so I will tell in anyway if someone is interested or not.

I have seen few requests about providing pre-rooted boot image file for OP7T European version for firmware 10.0.6 so here you go.
Steps :
1) Reboot your phone in bootloader mode (fastboot mode).
2) Execute command fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
3) Reboot the device
4) Install Magisk Manager
5) Click on Install, then direct install and wait the end of the process
6) Reboot the device
Also attaching the stock boot file in case anything goes wrong.
P.S : I don't own European OP7T.

Can you do one for the 10.0.6 USA Version? I can't find one anywhere. Thanks so much. I can't even find a copy of the stock 10.0.6 US boot img
Worked well, got my phone rooted yesterday.

USA version is HD65AA ? Can you send the product code and I will try
Yes, my build number is 10.0.6.HD65AA and model number is HD1905. Thank you so very much! Also, can you show me how you are getting the boot image for these new versions so I can do it myself in the future? Thanks again. SKU on the box says 5011100751
Hi!
Sorry for this question, flashing this boot image will wipe my device?
Thanks.

NO! First time you unlock your bootloader thats wipe your device, not when flashing a boot.img
it's not working for me with Oxygen 10.0.6 HD65BA.
If i try to boot the magisk patched boot image the phone just reboot within fastboot mode, and if i try to normally boot i just can't update magisk.

Update:
I found this surfing the net :
Unlike older OnePlus phones, the current bootloader of the OnePlus 7 Pro doesn’t allow ‘fastboot boot’ (also known as tethered booting) command. The situation is same as Essential PH-1 as well some other phones where you can’t temporarily boot a kernel or recovery.

Sorry for being late. Please try this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7t/how-to/pre-rooted-boot-image-op7t-global-t4009305
Thanks, I found the instructions on how to do it already and took the Global boot image. I am just booting it with fastboot boot instead of flash. Just being cautious is all.
Same situation over there, trying either boot or flash the image, the phone reboots itself into bootloader. Stock 10.0.6.

What is the difference between global and European? And can i still update ota after flashing this?
Hello !
Thanks for the guide !
I successfully installed Magisk, but once I install Riru core and EdXposed, my OP7T also gets stuck and boots only into fastboot. After wiping everything to factory reset, my phone is back to normal.
Is EdXposed working with this version of Magisk ?
(OpenPlus 7T HD65BA 10.0.6)
Thanks for help
Edit : problem solved with this method.
Excellent.
Many thanks @zanderzone
Can i still update ota in settings adter installing this version? Or will i loose root everytime?

Most likely you won't get any notifications if there are updates. You won't be able to use incremental updates.
But you can keep root flashing magisk right after the update before rebooting your phone.
could someone help me? I got the european version but if i try to boot the magisk_patched.img i just get stuck in fastboot mode and if i try to flash the patched image i get stuck in fastboot mode and i've to flash again the stock boot.
I also tried the global one but without any results.
Thanks
edit. I have the HD65BA 10.0.6 version
I was able to boot using your magisk_patched.img using "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img", but WIFI doesn't work now. I haven't inserted the SIM yet so I am unable to install magisk (it can't connect to download it). Is it only my case, or did it happen to anyone else? Any fixes?
Or is ir a temporary thing and after installing magisk it will work (WIFI)?
EDIT: with "fastboot boot Stock_boot.img" I get the same WIFI problem. Rebooting normally makes WIFI work again.
EDIT2: I tried it with the SIM on and the process was perfect. Thank you for that patched boot image and the tutorial!!!
Any chance @zanderzone that you could put a 10.0.7 version up?
I lost root with the recent update...
I found the detailed instructions too late.

Many thanks

Moto g6 forge (XT1922-9) bricked

okay so i am pretty new still to flashing firmwares and using fastboot in general. I have the cricket version of the moto g6 play (forge) and noticed that i could not unlock the bootloader through moto's website . i noticed that the model number for the cricket version of the xt1922-9 was the same as the retail version from motorola . which on the website says has the ability to unlock . so i tried to flash the stock retail firmware for the retail and the most update verision being android pie XT1922-9_JETER_RETUS_9.0_PPPS29.118-68-3_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip and ended up flashing everything succesfully other than the boot.img and all of the system.img files and when i try and reboot the phone to recovery it says failed to pass validation back to fastboot . and the baseband section in fastboot now says not found . can someone help me with how i can flash all the correct files so i can get the phone just to boot up again.
You flashed everything except the boot.img and the system.img files?? That means you mixed up two FWs on one device...
Try flashing this FW for jeter_cricket from mirrors.lolinet.com

What is "not successfully"? Could you explain it more detailed, please? There's always an output message in terminal

I'll also go ahead and copy and paste the output for you here as well.
Sorry it takes me so long to reply . Most of my tinkering time is eaten up with my other phone I have that just so happens to be the only model variant that can't unlock its boot loader hence no root or twrp ... :/
But anyway yeah I'm gonna try the tool and paste those lines of fast boot code for you. One sec.
