Hey guys,
I have a problem with my Z1C.
I used CM 12.1 quite a while now and I wanted to know how much difference is to Android 6.
So I downloaded the Remix Resurrection rom and flashed the boot.img in fastboot mode to replace the CM-recovery with TWRP. That was a bit tricky, because CM deleted TWRP again and again and booted in the CM-recovery.
So, finally I got TWRP working, after booting directly into the recovery after flashing the boot.img via fastboot.
TWRP now told me, that no OS is installed. I tried to wipe the phone and to install the RR-rom, but the recovery always said that it has the wrong version (?).
So I flashed the boot.img from the Cyanogenmod-zip and was able to boot into CM again. But now there seems to be no recovery on the phone. Whenever I try to boot to the recovery, the Sony logo appears and the notification light turns into orange, but then it starts again to do so.
At the moment I try to boot into CM again, but I think it has stucked in a bootloop...
What can I do here? The only thing what works is to boot into fastboot mode, but without the system.img I cant flash any roms there. How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Shut down your device and press volume up button while connecting it to your computer. Then it will boot into fastboot mode and you should be able to flash stock firmware in flashtool, and then you can start from scratch.

Another option is to follow this guide to install Recovery and When done you can boot into Recovery and flash a custom rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719

Try Rashr app from play store. It sounds to me like incompatible kernel/recovery combo. Download a recovery IMG, (latest TWRP, for example), then use Rashr to flash it. You can also use it for flashing a boot IMG. Its probably the same reason you had trouble flashing ROM.
Besides that, you can install real recovery, which works the same regardless of the kernel-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/general/bootloader-devices-real-recovery-t3096837
Okay, after flashing it with flashtool it starts again. I now put the RR rom with Android 5.1 on.
I have again the CM recovery, but at least it starts how it should.
I will try to flash the real recovery, thanks!
Update:
Currently running RR with Android 5.1.
I would now like to use RR with Android 6, but again, I can only boot into the Cyanogen recovery, which cant make a backup of the currently running OS. I have tried to flash the boot.img from RR 5.1 with fastboot, Rashr, but nothing seems to work, as it puts me back to the Cyanogen recovery every time. How can I replace the Cyanogen recovery?
And one more question: When the phone starts, the notification light turns into red before the Sonmy logo appears and then turns into pink. What does the red light mean?

You need a recovery img, not boot img. Try this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65361797&postcount=78 or this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719 Open Rashr, choose ' recovery from storage'.
Okay, i flashed the 2.8.6.0 version via Rashr and now Im stuck on the Sony logo...the notification light is orange all the time, but I cant restart the phone anymore...any suggestions?
Edit: Worked! Used the combination between power and Vol+ to reset, and now it starts!
You should disable CM Recovery Protection – On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then disable the ‘Update recovery with system updates’ option. Otherwise it will keep installing cm recovery itself.

Hey everyone, i got a neat little problem with my one X.
I wanted to install Resurrection Remix LP v5.5.0 according to this Thread.
So first of all I flashed twrp 2.6.3.0 to my phone and tried to install RR 5.5.0., which threw me an error (because of layout differences).
I moved on by flashing another recovery twrp2811.BiG to my phone and booted into it, np. So i wiped everything, I think it was the advanced wipe option, I ticked every checkbox and swiped to wipe.
After a short time my phone blackscreened back into the bootloader and when I tried to enter recovery again, it displays the twrp logo for a short time, then crashes and reboots.
Since theres no Android to boot, it repeats it's bootloop. I tried flashing twrp2853-BiG, twrp-2.6.3.0-endeavoru,twrp-2.6.1.0-endeavoru. Fastboot flashes the recoveries and right before my phone restarts it even shows the correct "recovery splash screen" according to the current recovery image flashed.
When I flash recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-endeavoru and boot into recovery everythin works, but I can't manage to mount my USB storage anymore.
But that almost doesn't matter since I need twrpXXXXBiG to flash the latest Resurrection Rom, but I cant get any twrp recovery back to work (erase cache didn't help at all).

Hi
While flashing CM13 on my redmi 1s, I did a clean install, meaning wiping everything, and then when I went to flash CM13, TWRP just reboots the moment I swipe to install. This happens with any .zip file.
I installed CWM using fastboot, and that gives me the same problem. The moment I try to flash/install anything using a recovery, that recovery reboots and doesn't flash anything. My device is now useless since it doesn't have an OS installed and no way of doing so..
From what I can tell the system partition is bad because when I boot into recovery it isnt mounted
When I take out the battery now it just goes straight to the fastboot screen. I can take it into recovery but it goes to fastboot by default
Please help
Hi dude,
i guess you have checked the integrity of your cm13 ROM file and (winrar>test archive) , your best bet would be flashing a fastbootrom and then come back to cm. Head over to miui and download latest fastboot rom applicable to you.
And its usual booting into fastboot when there is no OS installed atleast for our device so chill dont loose hopes..!

Flashing the fastboot rom doesn't work.. My recovery is broken too, because I can't flash anything.. In either MiRecovery 2.0.1, CWM or twrp.. When I flash the MIUI rom via fastboot it just boots into recovery..
EDIT, I just got it into MIUI but the 4.3 version from china, without Google, and I can't download google via the MI market. So i'm downloading an international version now and will try to flash using MiFlash.
Does anyone know how I can fix the recovery? It still won't flash anything and reboots the moment I try to.
Hello, I flashed CM14 Nougat 7.1.1 and everything worked fine until I tried to boot into recovery to get access to TWRP. If I try and boot into recovery I get the 1+ logo and then just a black screen and i have to hard reboot the phone to use it again. After the hard reboot it just goes back to nougat. I downloaded the TWRP APK to try and restore my previous save but it just does the same thing.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.
I get the same problem. This is WHY we should BACKUP it first. but I didd't, and so are you. I was having lots of works and did not check much news about CM for a long time. but yes, I get the rumors about CM getting shut down. and I check the news. Today I found out CM is shutting down, and my phone is not working.
But, hey, who am I. OnePlus 3 User with lots of experience.
So I tried CM recovery, the newest version works, but there is no backup option, I tried old CM13 recovery. it also black screen. This confirm my theory, this is due to Android 7.1 or CM14.1 upgrade
How to solve this problem?
I found this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-hydrogenos-h2os-beta-edition-oct-t3482259
go to this thread, and download modified TWRP.
BACKUP.
Install your new ROM via any XDA rom. not the CM14.1 build on Dec 25.
Note: If you want Android 7.xx, you could flash the Official Beta ROM(above), or download modem from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/radio-modem-collection-flashable-zips-t3468628
Happy New Year.

I had a ResurrectionRemix ROM running on my Zenfone 2 ZE551ML. I wanted to install the Marshmallow update of the stock rom, so I downloaded it from Asus' site and tried flashing it. However, something went wrong, so I ended up re-flashing my ResurrectionRemix ROM.
The phone booted properly and worked pretty well, but there was no play store so I had to go to recovery and flash gapps. When I tried to boot into recovery, all I got is a black screen. I know for a fact that while the black screen is on, TWRP loads and the phone goes into a bootloop because it keeps vibrating (the kind of vibrate that a phone does when you start it) every few minutes. Do you know how I can fix this?
Also, when the phone is booting, I no longer get the white splash screen which indicates an unlocked bootloader. I simply get a blurred screen, followed by RessurectionRemix's logo. The Asus logo never shows up for some reason.
First of all, you need to reflash the stock recovery in order to flash a stock rom. Stock does not need gapps. To revive your device, reflash twrp thru adb, boot to twrp, do a full wipe then reflash resurrection remix

Well you see the thing is, in order to flash twrp again, I'll need to boot into the bootloader using adb. But I can't.
The phone boots normally and works just fine, but it neither enters into recovery mode, nor into bootloader mode. All I get is a black screen when I try to boot into either of them.
Any help would be highly appreciated
So my phone has been lagging a whole lot using the stock rom and I have decided that I'll try a custom rom to see if that changes anything. So I came here and saw this forum:
"https://forum.xda-developers.com/xa1/development/half-gsi-oreo-8-1-t3902259"
I thought I'll try and so I unlocked my bootloader, only to have my phone be reset (not a problem, everything was backed up). It also boots with a warning "Device unlocked and can't be trusted".
Then I went on to download TWRP using this link in that post: "https://mega.nz/#!FQFXCYSY!DgxQRkaY1Eqq3B0fZLEQBNzUs0Zj80L6IzSHxdorQ3A" which is the TWRP 3.3.0.0 V2 IS FOR ALL USERS.
I didn't want to flash in the event it was the wrong recovery so I tried booting into it, fastboot boot recovery.img
It flashed, everything was ok and now the phone doesn't boot. It stayed in a boot loop. I went ahead and flashed recovery this time, no luck. Downloaded a recovery.img from another website and it didn't allow me to boot to android or recovery.
Is there a way to save my phone, I can't get another phone until August due to contract. It can still boot to fastboot and gets stuck when trying to boot to android. It being able to boot to fastboot makes me think theres a chance to flash a stock rom or any custom recovery and rom to get the phone working again. Any help? Thanks!

OK use the boot.img and recovery.img made by @janjan HERE. Under the heading ¨Downloads¨ see ¨Xperia XA1¨ and download the KERNEL + RECOVERY the boot.img and recovery.img are compatible with the G3121-G3112-G3125-G3116-G3123 devices on the applicable firmware.
Flash BOTH using fastboot. The boot.img is patched to allow TWRP to boot which it will never do using the stock boot.
If you wish to go back to stock then simply use FlashTool to flash the stock fotakernel.sin and boot.sin contained in the firmware for your device.
Does it works becouse I boot my g3116 from flashtool camand was
Fastboot boot boot.img and then also it's stuck into bootloader
