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.

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.

So, I was attempting to root my phone(CanvasA1- 4GB) today running stock android marshmallow(6.0.1) , I successfully unlocked the boot loader in fastboot using adb, after which I flashed TWRP recovery, Which was successful but then, When I rebooted into recovery, I saw my old stock google's recovery running , I tried 2-3 more times flashing the recovery in fastboot but the probem was still the same :crying:. Then I came to know that we have to flash a special type of boot img of some 17.5mb approx, When I attempted to flash this "boot" image, I received an error saying file size too large, Hence I couldn't flash it, I am still running the stock recovery, With my bootloader unlocked, I need to root my phone, Please help someone, Thanks in advance .

You can search for Android One Toolkit. Iwas encountering the same problem but this app solved my Problem.
Sorry dont have Link for the Same.
Same here. I unlocked the bootloader successfully and flashed TWRP recovery. But it shows system/default recovery only. Now stuck in bootloop.
Tried clearing cache/date etc. nothing worked. Don't know what to do.
Hi guys i flashed the 3.5.3 CM today but i decided to go back with 3.26 again, so i followed a guide that tells me to install stock recovery over twrp before i install the rom but after i fastboot flash the recovery i cannot go into the recovery anymore.
i tried to flashed the modified twrp and then boot to recovery but still wont open it.
the phone works and can go into fastboot still but it just wont access recovery
anyway to fix it? sorry if this has been discussed before. im on a mac for more info
TIA

Is your OS booting?
yea
Got the same problem here. Can boot into system and fastboot but if boot to recovery i get the oneplus logo and the bootloaderscreen and then i get a black screen where i should get my recovery. And if wanna Force shutdown my oneplus it freezes somehow. I tried everything to fix this with no result. Stock recovery doesnt work too.
Hi I just had the same problem, I have sent it back to Oneplus for repair. According to the ticket, I had a faulty motherboard, which has been replaced. If you can, do it. I only had to wait for a week before it was sent back.
Had the same problem last night. Following method nr 2 in thos thread solved it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3405700
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app
using fastboot to wipe the recovery partition then fastboot flashing modified twrp twice worked for me, i think the oneplus recovery image thats doing the rounds doesn't want to play nice lol
If youre phone boots in to system, download Flashify from play, flash recovery.img (you need to extract .img file). Go to recovery to check if it works. If not try other recovery.
after flashing the community build i cant boot my device in fastboot mode, it wont start the recovery or boot the system sucessfully.

If your device is unlocked, flash the recovery.img from fastboot.
You can download TWRP for oneplus 3 from their site.
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img.
And open fastboot in the path of the recovery image.
Use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hopefully this helps

managed to fix it the other day, by flashing the modded twrp.. somehow that one worked after that i flashed the 3.26 plus the 3.26 modem ones because if i didnt, my touch screen wont work...
For me, I flashed the twrp from fastboot.
But still the 1+ logo shows when I try to boot in to recovery for 5 sec and shuts down with 2 dots of lights in the navigation button area
The normal boot is working fine. Did flash the recovery using apps like TWRP Manager, Flashify etc. It will show successfulll. But when I try to boot in to recovery, same result.
Please help
So im on V4.21.40.191 and no matter what recovery i flash it doesnt work, i cant get into recovery from bootloader it just reboots itself to bootloader. it goes in recovery only if android is running and i send it "adb reboot recovery" command but that goes to system recovery, i've tried flashing different recoveries but non worked, all recoveries were flashed fine, no errors, flashed them in bootloader through "fastboot flash recovery xxxxx.img" command!
Please help, as im unable to root it, also if there is a non recovery way to root ZE550ML 6.0.1 then do tell me that too!
Thanks!
EDIT: i found out what i was doing wrong, my bootloader got locked during something nd i didnt knew, unlocked it again nd everything works fine now!
I've unlocked my Bootloader and all via beta-test program from DCUnlocker. I wanted to install TWRP & Magisk and I have following every step available from sir Supersonic's guide, but whenever I opened recovery, it always shows stock recovery (eRecovery) even though my CMD states that the flash recovery was succesfull and I never let my phone boot up in order not to replace the TWRP just like any android devices normal recovery procedures.
