I guess you could move files manually and set permissions, but might be more of a headache, since it's more than a few files. Your simplist solution is to figure out what's going on with recovery. With stock rom and root, there's no reason why NUT dual recovery shouldn't work fine, except that you don't have drivers etc on your computer. Otherwise you can flash a recovery img with fastboot or Rashr and it should be good.
What's your current rom, etc., and what have you tried?

First install a temperory CWM recovery by Odin and via that install which ever permanent recovery that u want this method helped me and i m sure will help u too.
Hit thanks if it helped
1-Use Root Genius Application to One-click root your Grand i9082 (www.rootgenius.com) it's a windows app, (you need to install Grand i9082's drivers on your PC before rooting)
2-Download the Recovery's image (.img file) and transfer on device's SD card or internal memory
3-Download "Rashr" from Google Play
4-open Rashr
5-Make backup of stock recovery (incase something goes wrong)
6-Click Install recovery from storage
7-Select the Recovery's image (.img file) in Rashr and install your recovery
8-Reboot and enjoy!
Recovery Mode not working
I succesfully rooted my i9082 using Kingo root. Then, I tried flashing CWM using Odin3 in download mode. Even after successfully flashing, the phone doesn't boot to recovery, it stays stuck at the Samsung boot logo. Even the stock recovery seems to have disappeared. The phone boots normally and into download mode, but I can't seem to access recovery or even bootloader. I have tried several different custom recoveries, and my custom BIN down is at 7 counts. Some applications I got off the Play Store say that I have no available recoveries installed/recognized. What do I do?
I also have same problem......!!!

Custom recovery issues! Help please!

Guys here's the thing. Android N on my N5X. When trying to install TWRP 3.0.2.2 through Nexus Root Toolkit it first boots up the recovery then when I reboot to system and back there is no TWRP. But it remains there when I use the Root button which roots and installs custom recovery. So when I have root I have TWRP. Can't I have TWRP without root I wonder?

Doesnt the toolkit have a check box to install a script or whatever to patch the system so the recovery wont be over written? Mine has it in flash recovery option!
I'm experiencing this issue as well. I tried to install TWRP after installing that October security updates. I wonder if there's something in the update that is preventing TWRP from installing?

It has something called perm.flash.recovery.zipor something which is described to do the thing you said but the problem is when the phone gets the" flash perm.flash.recovery.zip" it does nothing. It does nothing even when I try to flash it manually when I get the "trial" TWRP which disappears after rebooting.
Had the same problem. I solved it by using the old fashioned way, with fastboot commands found on the TWRP page: https://twrp.me/devices/lgnexus5x.html
Of course, I used the last image: twrp-3.0.2-2-bullhead.img

Can't get into recovery after using flashtool

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.

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.

Has Lineage been released for Amami? I don't see it on the downloads page.

TWRP not persisting through reboot + superSU flashing causes boot issue

Hi!
I'm currently using flash rom and kernel. As I've always done so, I like to flash TWRP and then SuperSU to enjoy the little tweaks offered by root.
Since the last 8.1 update, I'm facing a few issues that in my opinion are correlated.
First, flashing TWRP works well, but it seems not to be systemless, i.e. when I reboot my device the proper way, TWRP disappears.
Secondly, when I try to flash the latest stable SuperSU zip through my working TWRP (it's a one shot...), the process gives me no error, but then on the first boot, I get stuck on the huge Google logo... The only thing I can do is re-flashing boot.img but obviously the SuperSU app didn't install...
What should I do? Install a beta SuperSU version? Try Magisk (honestly, I don't really like it...)
Thanks for your help and patience!

Do this, first boot twrp, don't flash it. Once booted flash SU 2.82 SR5. Then boot back into the bootloader from twrp and flash twrp. Works for me.

Huge thanks for this!!! I was having the exact same problem (boot hangs at Google logo) and this resolved it!
I noticed that afterwards in the apps drawer I could not find any SuperSU, but doing adb shell and then invoking su worked, so I then just installed the supersu app from the play store to handle prompts (it seems without the app, root is enabled silently and doesn't seem like that great of an idea).
-----------EDIT------------
After installing the app from play store, DO NOT allow it to update the supersu binaries! I ran into bootloop again after that, and had to re-flash SR5 again. Seems like that's the magical version to use!
You're right about having super su update. I had the same problem.
Edit, I just checked and I'm actually using SR3. SuperSu then updated those binaries without a problem.
Hi, thanks for the answers. What do you guys mean by 'booting twrp without flashing it'? What's the fastboot command?

fastboot boot (drag and drop twrp.img file here)
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Well for the record, I did the following
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-bullhead
Then, I installed SuperSU downloaded here. I went back to fastboot and used
Code:
fastboot flash twrp-3.2.1-0-bullhead
but I still got stuck on the Google logo, meaning that my boot was corrupted or something... I then flashed the original Google boot.img
Code:
fastboot flash boot.img
and re-did the process of flashing SuperSU but I wisely chose to find a SR5 version of the file. I didn't flash TWRP after that and my phone booted normally with supersu.apk installed in it and the root privileges granted ... I don't know if I should try flashing TWRP again since my phone is working fine right now, but thanks anyway for the tip of booting to TWRP and not flashing it directly!

bootloop after trying install xposed framework

Hi
I have Honor 7x bnd l21 with oreo rom.
my device was rooted and I tried to install xposed framework using xposed installer.
but after I install that, while my device is booting it stuck on Honor logo and then it loop again.
please help me what should I do?
I have TWRP on recovery_ramdisk
I tried to flash a custom rom with TWRP and it failed.
I tried to flash stock rom with TWRP (update with terminal command like as I did before) and its failed too. (when I write reboot recovery, my device turned back into TWRP)
Hi,
If you want install xposed you can use a magisk module, but beware your device will no longer pass the safetynet test.
have xposed install via xposed installer apk, found on uptodown website. have it install via recovery, it will reboot and start flashing. you need root for this of course.
then, after it finishes, it will instantly reboot out of twrp. boot back to twrp and flash this before it boots https://drive.google.com/open?id=1bo445eAjt57edZ0X8F1qXUuxEcr608I6
