I'm not sure if it's right place to start this thread but the problem is that after clean install of lineageOS nightly build from 25th of January I have no recovery that's what ROM manager app says, phone doesn't show "SONY" logo while booting which means that I can't boot into recovery mode (and that's obvious because I think I don't have recovery) also phone is not rooted and works without gapps. Is there any option to fix it?
Lineage OS recovery
I installed Lineage OS for my Xperia M which was running on Cyanogenmod 14.1.
After installing the OS I pressed the recovery option after pressing power option, but the set do not boot to recovery by to Lineage OS only. I used TWRP recovery.
I tried to flash TWRP recovery via ADB, but the message is
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
sending 'recovery' (11208 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.705s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.721s
Can some one help me.
I am new to this forum and a non - techie.
I have moto G2, Sony XperiaM and Nexus 6 all phones rooted. MotoG2 and Nexus 6 are running with resurrection remix.
Xperia M does not have a recovery partition like some other devices. See the "some info" section on this post
I don't know of a fix at the moment, but as a work around in the meantime you could:
flash an image containing a recovery to the boot partition
Code:
fastboot flash boot recovery.img
Then when booting the phone you'd have the recovery options
If you wanted to boot to android, you would need to reflash the boot partition with the boot.img file in the lineageOS zip
Thanks for the reply. Will post after trying this solution.

I haven't tried to flash recovery via adb yet but thanks for information that it won't work
Edit:
You flashed twrp.img as far as I remember you should change file name to boot.img and then flash. I'll try it later hopefully phone will boot in recovery mode
I had the same problem on my girlfriend's Sony Xperia M.
Just download the latest Lineage OS nightly (I used 20170131) and extract boot.img from the zip. Then go into bootloader mode (settings -> developer options -> advanced reboot, long press of lock button -> reboot -> bootloader, you should now have the blue light on and the screen turned off), connect it to the PC and run
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
TWRP should now work again

Thanks, you saved me a lot of time.
For anyone else who are in the same shoes:
Note that it is crucial to only connect the USB when it is already in fastboot mode, since if you have to unplug and replug it for driver detection/reinstall purposes, when you unplug it the device simply turns off or reboots to system.
If it is stuck <waiting for device> you might have to visit the device manager and update the fastboot device's driver.
Thanks everybody for your replies. This is how i solved the issue.
Got the phone to fastboot mode using key combination
connected to pc
Confirm device status by typing fastboot devices
Then flashed recovery by typing
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Twrp was renamed as boot before flashing.
After completion used key combination to go to recovery and i was in twrp.this booting to twrp will take around 10 mins. Be patient.
The os will not be there. We need to flash os and gapps

Okay, so I tried my best to search the forums and read the Q+A first, but the suggestions I've found so far didn't help me solve my problem.
I started with Hasoon200's tool kit and successfully unlocked the boot loader. Then, however, I got stuck at installing CWRM (it just wouldn't boot into recovery after installing). So I gave it a try with the "One X one Click" tool kit. I downloaded the n3okernel v34 and -modules as well as the newest nightly build of Cyanogen Mod (cm-10.1-20130414-NIGHTLY-endeavoru).
Now my HOX is caught in a boot loop. No matter which option I choose (fastboot / hboot, recovery, factory reset), it'll always go to the white HTC screen and stay there. Since Q+A's Q11 mentions it: yes, the last time I could boot into the OS (then still the stock image) I disabled fast boot in power settings.
Currently I can only access my HOX via fastboot, I already got a stock image and extracted the boot + recovery images, which I then flashed with the fastboot utility, as suggested in the Q+A's Q9. I erased the cache and rebooted to no avail. I also tried the firmware executable (RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_DE_1.26.207.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251288_signed) to no avail.
Q+A's Q15 suggests sideloading via adb, but adb won't recognize my device.
I've also relocked the bootloader, this was suggested in another online ressource after flashing the stock boot+recovery images.
The phones HBOOT Version is 1.36.0000. I've noticed a different radio version than the one mentioned in my downloaded RUU; phone says 5.1204.162.29, downloaded file says 1.1204.90.13. I've not yet found a working download link with the right version number.
Please help.
Unlock it, make a full wipe in the custom recovery, install cm10.1, install gapps, flash the boot.img from the cm10.1 Rom and reboot.
So
Unlock it, flash a custom recovery (if you havent got one). If you still have trouble entering it you do this command in the bootloader
Fastboot erase cache

Unlocking the bootloader works, but I'm not able to enter the recovery mode. It only shows a black screen (see attached picture).
EDIT: ok, wait... after flashing the clockwork recovery, I'm now getting into recovery mode. Will now try the next steps you suggested and give feedback later. Thanks a lot so far!
Press the Power and Volume down buttons which will take you the the hboot screen. From there select fastboot and flash a custom recovery like CWM via fastboot.
Now select hboot again and then select recovery!
Okay, so I successfully flashed CWM. I'm now able to boot into recovery. I also succeeded in flashing a boot.img which i took from cm-10.1-20130414-NIGHTLY-endeavoru.zip
c:\One\One\Data>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4960 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.684s]
writing 'boot'...
(bootloader) Format partition LNX done
OKAY [ 0.498s]
finished. total time: 1.186s
Now - when selecting hboot - the phone gets to another screen, the one where it displays the "HTC One" logo; I tried flashing the CM-image using fastboot (adb still doesn't work), but got following error message:
c:\One\One\Data>fastboot flash /sdcard update.zip
sending '/sdcard' (200098 KB)...
OKAY [ 25.507s]
writing '/sdcard'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 25.716s
So close, yet so far...
So you have a working CWM installed right?
After flashing the boot.img... do "fastboot erase cache"
now go to CWM(recovery) and mount your sd card... copy the CM10ROM.zip and the gapps.zip to your HOX...
after that select wipe data and then wipe dalvic and cache...
Now select install zip from SD and install the ROM and then the gapps... reboot!
The problem is that I can't - or could'nt - transfer files any other way than using fastboot. However, I've now flashed Team Win TWRP2, and finally I'm able to access my phone over adb or just mount it and access it via explorer. Phew.
FINALLY!
So, if another noob like me finds this thread in the future...
After installing the TWRP2 recovery with flashboot flash twrp2.img, then booting into recovery and mounting my device, I was able to copy the CM-ROM-zip file onto the HOX. Then I rebooted into fastboot again and flashed the boot.img from aforementioned zip-file using "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
Booted again, selected the recovery system, installed ROM from zip file.
I'm getting too old for this ****. Almost had a heart attack when I thought I had bricked my phone. Thanks everyone for holding my hand, I appreciate it.
Good mate !
CASE CLOSED !
Getting confused.
Loaded Nougat on my Nexus 5x... unlocked boot loader, loaded TWRP 3.0.2-2 rebooted, saw TWRP,
Moving files to the phone to restore using TB, but have not yet done SUPERSU.. reboot back into recovery, Android Flat on back Red Triangle, No command??
Can reboot into the phone it works, just can't get back to TWRP for reasons I can't figure out.
Feels like I missing a step, but can't figure out what. Looked at a lot of pages, but nothing really stands out.
Update: Used fastboot boot [twrp imagename].img
And it got me directly to TWRP. Able to load SuperSU then.
Update #2: What I didn't make clear in this original post was I did in fact flash the TWRP recovery, it just didn't stick.
Command used originally:
Code:
C:\SDK\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-2-bullhead.img

sending 'recovery' (16433 KB)...

My mistake was to then reboot where it was apparently overwritten hence the confusion.

The reason that happens is if u fastboot boot twrp.img u will only have a temporary twrp until u reboot..if u had typed fastboot flash recovery recovery twrp.img then when u reboot the recovery would be permanent...

Actually, I did use flash the recovery. It came up just fine. However, after a reboot, when I booted back to recovery I got the No Command.
I had to re-flash TWRP, and then reboot back to Recover from TWRP, then reboot, then it worked like it should.
The command you posted was to boot a recovery, not to flash one in the recovery partition.
Anyway, you can't just flash TWRP and boot, because the boot will replace stock recovery, you got to flash supersu/another kernel from the recovery after flashing for it to stick.
You Can try this adb command :
fastboot flash recovery twrp_3.0-2-2.img
fastboot boot twrp_3.0-2-2.img
And normaly it's ok you have twrp installed
Thanks for the other responses...
Just to confirm what I did originally (I just unrooted so that I could use Magisk and PPH Root)
Code:
C:\SDK\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-2-bullhead.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (16433 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.421s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.154s]

However, If after doing this I rebooted the phone etc... TWRP was no longer there again. I had to do the same, force a boot to twrp, and then install Magisk before rebooting for it to stick.
Just in case someone else runs into this confusion.
I am now on Android 7 Nougat on a Nexus 5X with Magisk using PPH Root and can now use Root, Android Pay and some other apps which won't run with root enabled. Happy Camper for now.
The step your missing is after you fastboot flash the recovery don't reboot the phone just yet. You have to reboot the bootloader by typing fastboot reboot bootloader. After doing that use the volume up button to access recovery. Once you do that then you can start the phone.

If you boot with a stock boot.img the android boot process will replace your recovery partition with stock if the SHA256 for the recovery doesn't match what it expects. The way you can stop this is to modify your boot.img, which would happen if you install SuperSU prior to first android boot after a new flash.
Hi,
i was trying to installer lineageOS and was having some issues trying to install.
I read online to update TWRP since I was on a older version. I downloaded
twrp-3.2.3-0-flo.img 8.8M 2018-07-29 15:35:06 EDT and installed it via TWRP (old version)
rebooted and it does not load in to TWRP now and only takes me in to fastbook mode when i try to go in to recovery it takes me back to fastbook.
I also wiped out the OS since i was going to install LineageOS right after.
Any suggestions or help?
Thanks

Hi, I just updated to twrp-3.2.3-0-flo.img via my old TWRP and see no problem. Here is a quick solution, in fastboot mode run: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-flo.img
The latest fastboot app: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-releases-separate-adb-and-fastboot-binary-downloads/
just tried that with the latest fastbook app and a new .img downloaded twrp 3.2.3.-0 I get:
C:\>cd adb
C:\adb>cd platform-tools
C:\adb\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-0-flo.img

What I am using
Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro with:
- Pixel Experience Rom
- TWRP 3.5.2_9
Windows 10 21H1 x64
What happend
- Updating Pixel Experience Rom failed
Downloaded update
Booted into Recovery (battery 85%)
Recovery stuck on Logo
After 30m I tried to reboot to system (thinking update failed or never started)
Reboot in to Recovery
Stuck on Logo
What I tried
- I tried XiaomiFastBootADBTools (latest version)
Device is recognized in Recovery mode
In recovery I can't do anything
Rebooting to System from here results in reboot into Recovery
Booting to fastboot works, but device is not recognized
Re-installed drivers, but no luck
Still recognized in Recovery mode
Still NOT recognized in Fastboot mode
Windows Device Manager > The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)
And turning of phone is not possible, just goes back to Recovery
Don't know what else to do. I have installed all the drivers I could find. Even used Snappy Driver, but nothing seems to do the trick when the phone goes into Fastboot mode. PC just doesn't recognize it.
So can't do anything in Recovery mode; just watching the TWRP logo.
And device is not recognized in fastboot mode; forgot usb debugging?
And can't boot into system to change that, because of bootloop to Recovery.
So, am I **** out of luck and bricked my phone?
While in Recovery mode (when the phone is still recognized) type in adb window the command - adb reboot bootloader. Phone should boot to Fastboot mode and see if it's still recognized.

Yeah, that works. Same as with XiaomiADBFastbootTools. But after that the problem starts (remains).
When I get into Fastboot the Device Manager shows the phone as Other Devices > Android with an exclamation mark and the message that the drivers are not installed. I'm missing a driver, but I don't know which one. Guessing Xiaomi USB driver? Finally fixed that issue with another round of googling. I read that you just need net "Mi unlock Tool". So tyring to find that one:
- https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
results in a download that doesn't contain the files needed.... No driver_install and no miflash_unlock.exe etc.
pretty weird, found another page https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html with previous versions
- 4.5.813.51 won't download... really xiaomi, your site sucks.
- 4.5.707.49 finally downloads and seems to work.
So updated the driver by pointing to that folder. Worked like a charm.
Opening Minimal ADB and Fastboot (XiaomiADBFastboottools didn't recognize phone once in fastboot).

What about trying to flash latest fastboot rom with MiFlash since fastboot now works?
Absolutely awesome! We did it!
I'm no expert in all this, so I had to use a guide to flash a fastboot rom with the Mi Flash Tool. I used this guide: https://www.thecustomdroid.com/install-miui-fastboot-rom-using-miflash-tool-xiaomi/
That was all straight forward untill I came to step 6; flashing the actual rom with the Mi Flash Tool.
The tool just wouldn't recognize my phone when in Fastboot mode. Even after the driver install popup.
- after pressing refresh phone disconnected.
- tried 3 different usb ports (read online that this could be the issue)
- tried 3 different cables...
The third cable (Ugreen cable) worked! Although it only worked on a usb 3.0 port strangely enough.
I used the "clean all" option and flashed the latest MIUI global fastboot rom for the RMN5.
Flashing process was a bit strange, because the tool didn't provide me with the same information shown in the guide, but it flashed a couple of things to 100% completeness and after that it kept counting up and showing $pause. Not much later the phone started to boot into MIUI and everything was normal.
Enabled dev options and usb debugging.
Re-flashed latest twrp recovery just to be sure.
And it's all working fine again.
Really, thank you for your help! It's much appreciated!

Glad that it worked out. Sometimes even the most untraditional methods work like usb 3.0 and the third cable.
Still all went good and that's the good news. Enjoy

Unfortunately, the problem has returned.
The first time flashing Orange Fox Recovery was no problem. I could boot to Recovery. I installed Pixel Experience Plus again. That all worked fine.
Today I wanted to try out ArrowOS. And this is what I did:
- loaded the .zip file on the phone
- turned off the phone
- booted into recovery
- stuck on recovery logo screen...
- after this the phone bootloops to recovery again as before...
In Recovery and Fastboot the phone is still recognized by the PC. But in Recovery I can't do anything.
So in Fastboot mode I tried re-flashing Orange Fox , but same result. Flashing seems successful but can't get past the Recovery logo. I even tried flashing TWRP, but also same result.
I can probably redo all the steps in my previous post, but once I boot to recovery the phone is done for it seems.
Any ideas?

Hmm, I don't know why is that happening. It's usually the custom recovery's fault in such case except if Pixel rom comes with its own prebuilt recovery that overwrites the one you installed.
I suggest you first to try to boot into system to see if it will work - in fastboot mode type the command fastboot reboot.
If this doesn't work then flash again fastboot rom to get the phone in working condition and after installing twrp FORMAT DATA in twrp Wipe section. Then install rom again.
Good luck, zaqm!

Don't know why, but it's working. Here's what I did:
- In Fastboot Mode > fastboot reboot > booted to recovery, so no luck there
- Used MiFlash to flash the fastboot rom again (clean all)
- Setup the phone etc. and activated usb debugging
- Flashed TWRP
- Booted to TWRP
- Format Data
- Rebooted to TWRP
- Mounted Storage, uploaded ArrowOS.zip and installed it
- Wiped Dalvik/Cache
- Booted ArrowOS, and success!
Have done several reboots to (and from) system/recovery and it just works again, as it should.
I think the Format Data in TWRP did the trick. I remember in Orange Fox this all was a bit unclear; I'm just not used to Orange Fox, always used TWRP. So my bad for not correctly flashing the rom probably.
Again, thank you very much for your help! Have a great day! And let's hope this is the end of this issue haha.

- Wiped Dalvik/Cache
- Booted ArrowOS, and success!
Have done several reboots to (and from) system/recovery and it just works again, as it should.
I think the Format Data in TWRP did the trick. I remember in Orange Fox this all was a bit unclear; I'm just not used to Orange Fox, always used TWRP. So my bad for not correctly flashing the rom probably.
Again, thank you very much for your help! Have a great day! And let's hope this is the end of this issue haha.

Maybe some glitch of OrangeFox recovery and yeah, let's hope that this issue won't appear anymore.
All the best, zaqm!
hello,
in Fastboot-mode I flash TWRP successfull, but when I want to boot recovery, it starts Redmi-Recovery 3.0.
No start of twrp-recovery.
Commands: (same commands I have tried with Windows 10, other TWRP-versions I tried too.)
$ fastboot devices
tkx4gm5575vod69p fastboot
$ fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.7.0_9-0-begonia.img
Sending 'recovery' (31380 KB) OKAY [ 0.876s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.248s]
Finished. Total time: 5.123s
Shutdown phone, Press Power On/off + Volume-Up, Press Volume-Up and it starts Redmi-Recovery 3.0.
Where is my mistake?
got done, used alternative twrp
"twrp-3.7.0_9-0-begonia.img"
I think this is official twrp, but this is for Android 9.0
I tried flash LineageOS20 by using twrp-3.5.0_10-UNIFIED_UNOFFICIAL.img.
I installed Lineage from twrp but now hard brick has happened... nothing boots, no bootloader/fastboot
so I will try windows connects with dead phone and flash Stock-Rom Begonia / Android 9.
