[Q] Problem with booting

Hi, here is the situation. I got one half-broken Desire.
Fully formatted, s-off,cwm 5.0.2.0 with broken volume up and down keys.
So, when I get into the bootloader I can't get into the recovery to flash zip.
Anyone has some rooted image with boot.img, system.img data.img so I can flash it via fastboot?
Thanks.

You can flash .zip ROM through fastboot : http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...id#Android_Flashing_Guide_.28with_fastboot.29
I think you can also flash rom from Rom Manager

Thanks didn't know that... But pretty much useless since community roms don't contain android-info.txt file and some other related stuff.
However, I've figured out that after flashing boot.img via fastboot, it shows itself up in adb devices command so I managed to get into recovery by adb reboot recovery and flashed.

LG G4 H815 - Bootloader Unlocked - Can't install TWRP

Hello everyone.
I have unlocked the bootloader in my Int. H815 model and I have tried to install the lastest TWRP. But I am stuck now.
1. If I reboot to recovery with they keys, I get what looks like stock LG reset screen (Blue with yes or no to reset)
2. If I reboot to recovery with ADB - I get the small Android robot with ! on it. Usually you hold power and volume up (ON Nexus anyways), but this does nothing.
Any help would be great.
//Edit
I can get TWRP going, if I do fastboot boot twrp.img - Can I flash custom rom from here?

go to bootloader. try command
fastboot boot recovery.img
and flash recovery.img in twrp..

HELP - TWRP on OnePlus 3 running the Open Beta 9 (Nougat ROM)

Here's the deal. I unlocked the bootloader of my OnePlus 3, flashed TWRP Recovery with "Tool All In One" through my pc. Then I was able to root my phone, I did it and then, flashed the Open Beta 9 through TWRP.
Now the problem I have now is that I'm unable to flash TWRP from my computer and I don't know why. It doesn't display any error or anything else. But when I boot into recovery mode, it is not TWRP, it's the stock one. Help me out. I want root and Xposed lol!

fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
into recovery Vol Plus and Power
flash SU
beta9 is Nougat so xposed is not working yet.

You need adb and Fastboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979&page=95
On The Fastboot PATH
Same directory, Put twrp.img
Shift and Right Mouse.Open cmd and type
fastboot flash recovery "twrp file name.img"
You can get TWRP.
I recommend TWRP .28
After you can flash any Rom and Kernel , SU etc...

You need modified TWRP Recovery to Run Open Beta 9, official TWRP won't work
Here's the link for Modified TWRP

Thank you guys so much, I successfully flashed TWRP on my phone. First time, it didn't want to boot but when I rebooted it id did
... Well, update: Booted into system and when y tried to boot into recovery, this time unplugged from the pc, booted with stock recovery -_-
... Update of the update haha: I downloaded the root zip and then I flashed the TWRP, Installed root zip and made a backup of the whole system and now, the TWRP recovery is installed permanently. Thank you if you guys followed my thread.

How do I update the ROM OTA with rooted device?

Hi guys,
I'm on an outdated version of the global beta ROM and have received an OTA notification.
Unfortunately I can't run this as I'm rooted.
Please could you tell me the easiest way of updating the ROM without wiping everything and maintaining root?
Many thanks,
Andy

After flashing Rom root will be gone and if you need root just flash supersu.zip using twrp and you will get root back. That's all

thank you, unfortunately when I get into TWRP it asks for a password. Without a password I can't browse to the downloaded zip.
any idea?

Reflash Twrp from fastboot.

I've just found in a thread elsewhere:
"It's because of the dm-verity protection included in the MIUI firmwares.
To disable it, you have to:
- Format all encrypted partitions on fastboot (fastboot format system; fastboot format userdata;...)
- Boot on TWRP and flash a MIUI recovery image
- Download this patched boot file
- On fastboot flash the patched boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot-patched.img)
To manually remove the protection from a kernel you have to:
- Extract boot.img from a rom/device
- Unpack it, with this tool for example -> mkbootimg_tools
- Search the fstab file (fstab.qcom for example) and remove the "verify" mention and replace all "forceencrypt" mentions by "encryptable"
- Repack it and flash it"
I don't really understand this, or understand / remember how I managed to flash the global beta rom in the first place?!

little help regarding flashing roms and ota updates.

Ok. Guys my mandatory 720hrs of waiting will be up in a week. So can anyone guide me regarding flashing twrp on this device in a permanent fashion. I intend to stay on the current miui10.8.20 latest beta as I find it perfectly useable, however I do wanna use gcam ( plz guide on that as well). And one last thing, can I update to any latest official beta available through ota. ( Will it relock my device?) Or will I only lose twrp which I persume I can flash again.
Xiaomi phones have a real typical root method. I am not new to rooting at all but kindly help me through this.
One last thing.. any recommendations for miui based custom ROMs?
My device is the global variant of note 5.

Flashing twrp : put your device in fastboot mode and enter these fastboot commands
fastboot boot twrp.img
Now copy twrp.img to internal storage
From twrp recovery install twrp.img this will permanently flash twrp recovery
Follow google camera mod thread
Yes you can flash OTA update using twrp recovery and it won't lock bootloader
Just flash magisk for rooting
