Can't flash ROM in TWRP - 8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a rooted HD 8.9 with TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery. I downloaded the ROM here, but It won't flash. "Error executing updater binary in zip." I also get a bit of my screen scrambled when it boots to recovery, the left side about 1 inch into the screen. It goes away when TWRP loads.

Anyone?

You can try this, kfhd8-twrp-3.0.2-2-recovery.img.

This worked perfectly. Thank you so much! Unfortunately the ways to root, do not work anymore so I had to use Kingroot to root, in order to flash boot and recovery. The scripts to replace it with SuperSU don't work so I was stuck with it's annoyance. Once I got the first recovery flashed then I was at least able to do a factory wipe to get rid of it. The only issue I had was TWRP failing at everything. After flashing the updated TWRP image, everything went perfectly and a lot better than I could've ever imagined. I will be writing a new how-to, given the fact none work anymore.

The only issue I have is not being able to get hangouts to work. The dialer works fine, but to get SMS I have to now use Google Voice app.

Unable to install TWRP Recovery on LG G Pad v50020f

Hey guys,so heres the problem...recently i had to use the LG Support Tool and prior to this i was v50020d. When the tool had finished restoring the stock ROM,it upgraded me to v50020f. So i went and successfully rooted it with KingoRoot surprisingly enough with no trouble at all. I then tried to install TWRP Recovery,through the TWRP app,Flashify,Rashr and i even tried Fastboot and ADB which im led to believe don't work with the v500 but i still tried it and had absolutely no success at all in installing TWRP. I have tried flashing every version of TWRP from 2.8.7.1 back to 2.6.3.0 i think using all those apps mentioned above. So i came on here to XDA to see could i find any solution to my problem but no luck either but i did find a post where a script was used,edited and apparently worked. I downloaded the zip file that was used in this process,edited the runme.bat file by changing the last letter of the build to f which would correspond to my build which is v50020f. I saved the edited file and then ran the script which when finished told me that recovery had been installed so i rebooted the G Pad,it started up,the blue teamwin screen came up and then it just hung there for hours! Thats was it nothing more. No recovery installed. So then i went and used Flashify & flashed `twrp-2.8.7.1-v500.img´ and when i rebooted i got 'secure booting error,cause:device unlock:so boot success!!' rebooted the G Pad again and the same thing happened blue teamwun screen loads and then nothing,no recovery. So i flashed the same recovery image with TWRP Recovery app and when it was finished i got the message 'Success!! Flashing recovery was successful,would you like to attempt rebooting into recovery? so i did and again the same thing happened. Teamwin blue screen and nothing more. When i check TWRP Recovery app afterwards it tells me that there is no recovery installed or it us not recognised. Can anybody please,please,please find a solution to my problem? Oh yeah,i even tried booting into recovey by using the power and volume up and down trick too and got the same result. Thank you so much guys...hope you can help.
I think I've seen that in order to install TWRP on the V500 is similar to how on my VK810 variant, at least the part that requires downgrading your bootloader. If it's like the VK810, it has to be the bootloader from 4.2.2. I'm sure there's TWRP threads in these sections, specifically for the V500 that give the details and files.
I'd love to know a way too. I just rooted which went great, but I have the V50020f and don't want to do another thing until I see what happens in this thread. After years of flashing and rooting I finally hard bricked my Lenovo Yoga 10 and this is my replacement tablet, so I don't want to chance it at all. Until I read a concrete solution for this build I'm staying where I am.
That wall of text is really hard to read @[email protected]!c, when I first saw it I was too tired to try and decipher it so ignored it. Now I've had another look.
Have you tried downgrading to an older firmware which people have had success with?
I had trouble when I first got this tablet but kept reading the forum and found a method to downgrade, it isn't pretty but eventually it worked. As I'm new to this device I'm not overly familiar with the different official firmware versions so I'm not exactly sure what you've got.
My tablet was more complicated as the LG tool put the Chinese, no Google apps, version on for me as that is where it was bought. So I had to downgrade so I could get apps from the Play Store to flash my recovery!
So patience and research will reward you.

Hi!! I'm in the same boat! Any chance you were able to work out a solution? Thanks so much for any help!!
I know it didn't work for the OP, but coming from bone stock v50020f, I successfully rooted using ioroot25r1, updated Supersu through playstore, then using flashify i installed TWRP 2.8.7.1 (newest I think). Once booted into TWRP recovery, I wiped cache, data, and system, and then installed AOSP Marshmallow. All went smooth as silk, no problems at all. Now I can finally stop being jealous of my wifes Nexus 7!! Hope this helps some.

Thanks.!
i have just used twrp manager apk from playstore (similar to flashify) to get TWRP 2.8.7.1 on stock v50020f, rooted using ioroot25r1 on a mac, with updated Supersu through playstore. just had to run the apk twice as it failed first time, and have booted into twrp recovery.
Had the same problem with the recovery but worked by rooting and flashing recovery with flashify.

Problems post super su install

So I installed TWRP and then moved on to install super su which is where the problem started. First I attempted to install SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip. Everything ran but after it led to a boot loop. After that I realized I had tried to install the latest file but not the latest STABLE file, so I then tried to install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.78-20160905010000.zip to no avail. I then noticed when I go in to download mode i get a "FILE /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/OPJAIMG.zip File Not FOUND" error on the bottom. Any idea how i could sort this out? (like a fool I did not make a backup before doing this) I downloaded the RUU (RUU_HIMA_UL_M60_SENSE70_ATT_MR_Cingular_US_3.38.502.17) but I wanted some advice before i do that so i don't mess it up more.
ATT m9
os 3.38.502.21
s-on
TWRP 3.0.2-0
Download Mode checks for this file to update the Firmware. If you are not planning on updating that, you don't need that file on your Phone. It's more a notice that an actuall error
Alright, that's encouraging. Any idea why i would get a boot loop after trying to install super su though? That's where I'm stuck right now. I'm not opposed to going back to stock and starting over if that's the only option. I just want my phone to be usable again.
Well if it installed in Systemless mode, it can cause a bootloop for a while, you might just need to be patient. Otherwise, i would maybe try an older version of SuperSu. I think 2.76 was pretty safe to install
I let it boot loop over night so no dice there. I'll give the older version a try. Hopefully that works.
No luck with 2.76. It boot looped for a half hour. Any other thoughts?

Yes, don't flash any newer version than 2.65. Updating via the play store afterwards is safe, though.
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA Labs
I had the exact problem, lucky enough i could fetch some log files during boot and sent them to chainfire, maybe we will see a fix someday
SuperSU 2.65 seems to be the latest version working in system-less mode on the HTC One M9, updating through Google Play Store works fine tho.
I will look for the log in a couple minutes and post it here for all that are interested
But don't worry, atleast it didn't brick our phone

Can't boot into recovery after cm14.1 nightly official

So as the title says, after flashing cm14. 1 can't go into recovery anymore, it just a black screen. I tried to use flashify but nothing, a couple of apps show that I have twrp 3.0.2.1 but can't get into it... Help?
Cheers
Same situation here. Neither booting the recovery via fastboot without flashing nor flashing the TWRP an then booting into it result in black screen. Flashify gives no results here. Please help.
EDIT; flashing this one via fastboot restores the access to TWRP, confirming it right now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=21065&task=get

Yeah man im in the same boat, if i get time ill try this twrp recovery. Where did that recovery come from?, it seems like the CM recovery for 14.1 nightly high jacks the recovery partition (i call it that,i dont know the term for it)

I believe the official 14.1 nightlies are based on the CB which requires the modified TWRP, which is what @JKMB888 has linked you to.

I would like to truly confirm that the direct link to recovery, along with the thread in which it can be found, repair the situation. I was able to restore the backup of Freedom OS and the return to CM14.1 backup. We should keep this one somewhere near, jsut in case.
Thanks a lot guys, that did the trick, and done with flashify

@JKMB888 it does work 100% is as simple as flashing the TWRP. Actually, i installed it with CM 14.1 running just fine

Just re flash the TWRP image via Fastboot. Apps like flashify actually use TWRP or whatever recovery installed to flash image file AFAIK. I recommend using modified TWRP,Flashing some roms break the access. But the modified one can withstand almost every new rom installs.
Hope it helps.
Why i have always mount decrypt data when i boot in recovery mode which is TWRP 3.0.2-22 aand ask me to input a password?

At some point your phone data became encrypted. While booted up if you search for encrypt in settings you'll see your phone is encrypted.
Same thing happened to me yesterday after flashing 3.2.7 and booting up for the first time before going back to TWRP to flash AICP. Only way to decrypt permanently, as far as I know, is to wipe all data including internal and completely start from scratch.

After I got the recovery back, I flashed CM13 again and ARM64 6.0 Nano Gapps for my Oneplus 3, but I'm getting an error after the "preparing apps' screen is loaded saying that - unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped one plus 3 boot and then the phone switches off.
Any solution to this? I've already tried flashing different versions of CM13.

Hey, guys. I'm pretty sure I bricked my phone and there's no way to get out.
So I was on CM13 official builds on my OP3. Then, on the OTA update system they have, I got moved onto the CM14.1. I downloaded from here and went into my twrp recovery to flash. I made a clean flash and then proceeded to go back to system. I thought everything was ok until I realised I hadn't flashed a gapps package which I pretty much need to survive as all my contacts backups etc. are on there. I powered off my phone and went to go back into the recovery after downloading gapps 7.1 micro. It went past the *You're device can not be trusted'* and then went to the oneplus screen. After that, it stayed like that for about 30 secs and powered off. At first, I thought I messed something up and tried again. I repeated that for about 3 times and it didn't work. I tried going into the normal system and coming back to recovery and it didn't work still. In fact, now I can't even get into system. Now, i can only boot up to fastboot, where my computer still doesn't realise my phone is plugged in.
Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? I wouldn't say I'm a noob at this because I have flashed many times before but I'm relatively new to the scene. I didn't see this thread before i ripped my hair out and i think wrecked my phone @JKMB888
EDIT: I sorted it out with help from Naman Bhalla's unbrick thread and this. A certain combo works and now I'm on CM14.1 enjoying life

OnePlus 3 keeps booting into TWRP Recovery Mode - PLEASE HELP!!

I will try to explain what happened as best as possible.
I wanted to install the AKT Profile on my un-rooted one plus 3 and so I decided to root it.'
I looked up on google and used the OP3 All In One ToolKit to unlock bootloader and flash TWRP.
Then I booted up phone to download SuperSu in order to flash it.
This is where the problem began. I went into TWRP recovery mode and it asked for a password and that stopped the nandroid backup too. but I googled and found out that doing a Wipe helps you bypass the password bug, so I did that. Now I went ahead and did a nandroid backup.
This is where I don't understand what's going on. How much ever I try to reboot the device, it ONLY loads me back into TWRP Recovery screen.
I even tried to restore the backup, it completes the restore but I dont see any reboot option right after it is done, So i have to long press power button to reload back into TWRP.
Now I'm confused as to what to do and would REALLY appreciate help, ASAP.
P.S - I'm a noob so I probably wont understand high level jargon
thank you guys in advance :crying:
SOLVED : I flashed TWRP 3.0.3 once again and somehow it got fixed
'' doing a wipe help you bypass the password''... Well yes probably, but depending on what type of wipe, you might have wiped your rom/system. So if that is the case, there is no rom to boot into, and your stuck in twrp recovery. Restoring an empty Nandroid wont do anything either. So my guess is you will have to download stock or custom rom and do a fresh install.
If needed, this method works very well.
I used it to day, with success.
Good luck !
Thank you. but will this work with latest TWRP 3.0.3 or will i have to use old one as mentioned in that post?
Use latest twrp 3.0.4.0. Also for clean install with OOS 4.02 or OB11. Also keep both firmware and supersu/magisk superuser close by. You can find all dl-links on xda.

Try flashing the stock recovery. I got stuck in recovery loop after the OTA update got installed over twrp. Flashed the stock recovery and right away it booted me to the rom.
It's a problem of older twrp with nougat so you need to flash twrp new version

Phone is stuck in bootloop! [SOLVED]

Hi,
I understand this is probably a common problem with a simple fix, but this is my first attempt to root. My phone is unlocked and s-off, running 3.37.605.7. I used TWRP to install SuperSU and then after rebooting, it was stuck in a bootloop. After doing some research I think maybe I installed the wrong version of SuperSU, but I can't figure out how to fix it. I did a backup with adb beforehand, but when I tried restoring it said to unlock my phone and confirm, and I can't unlock my phone. I tried doing the restore command with TWRP open and it seemed to do something at first, but then nothing. I'm really stuck and would appreciate some help.
Thanks!
Are you wanting to keep the data you have on the phone or, would you be OK with starting fresh?

After you get TWRP back, flash View attachment BETA-SuperSU-v2.65.zip to get root.
I just went through the same mess as you with the newer SuperSu versions. I read somewhere that 2.65 was the latest that would work and this is the zip I used.
