Cant enter recovery or download mode

Hello.
I flashed one KDZ for my country and root my E987. I also used freegee to install CWM (it should unlock boatloader I guess).
The problem in that when: phone turning on, trying to enter recovery, fastboot or download mode I have nothing but a black screen.
The phone is working perfectly.
In freegee I see these options: Backuo and restore EFS, Re LOCK and CWM/TWPR installations
What can be wrong??

In Optimus G (E975), should turn of phone completely (press power button for 10 seconds), then press vol up + power to start phone in bootloader. Then press vol down twice and then power button to start recovery.

I tried again but nothing but a black screen

So, if you can even access to your bootloader with vol up + power , you can connect phone to PC and flash a recovery image file via fastboot adb. (put your recovery image file in fastboot folder and then open a command prompt in that folder and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
Also maybe on your black screen you can do this.
If not, disconnect phone from PC, turn it off, press vol up + vol down together and connect USB cable, you may see download mode. if you see download mode, following method may help, but I'm not sure about E987! I did this on my phone E975 and it works: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249500
Please consider it may remove all your data including system, userdata, sdcard , etc.
Good luck friend

Your welcome
If you could flash kdz means you can access download mode so you can try that method I've said.
Also you can download recovery images from following links :

Your welcome say thanks to autoprime that makes tinybin
Please remember that after tinybin you may see black screen and can't boot android. But fastboot and recovery should work and you can push a flashable zip ROM and flash it through recovery.

How to root Coloros 2.1.5

Hi Guys / Girls.
I've search all over google for this, although most of the guides seem to be out of date or have dead links.
Seeing as Color Os 2.1.5 is the last of it's line I thought this would be a good archive / place to ask the question.
How can I root ColorOs 2.1.5?
I've already flashed TWRP 2.8.1.0 and have setup but I am not sure which file I should flash to get root access.
Thank you.

Thanks a lot Zeus Hai! I was stuck as jackdh was, trying multiple things, none worked. Turned out that flashing SuperSu was good step, only I didn't think that it mattered that I used SuperSu 2.02. Have a great day!

1) Download twrp recovery from twrp.me for find 7.
2) Put phone in fastboot mode by first powering off then holding power and volume up button simultaneously until you see 'fastboot'.
3) install fastboot drivers on pc.
4) Connect phone to pc while phone is in fastboot mode.
5) Open command window in the folder where you have placed fastboot files and twrp recovery (both these should be in same folder).
6) type "fastboot oem unlock" without the quotes and enter.
7) Type "fastboot flash recovery NameOfRecovery.zip" no quotes and enter.
8) Disconnect phone and reboot to recovery by first powering off then hold power + volume down simultaneously.
9) Install supersu zip posted above.
10) Reboot and press thanks.
P.S: This is a very rough guide so sorry for that, I'm just going to sleep. So tired. Lol

Does this method work on nameless rom? ...Somehow I'm on twrp and running a custom rom and yet my phone is not rooted

So I have an unrelated yet sort of linked to this thread question, I'm running Lineage OS 14.1 on the Find 7a.
I was thinking of going back to Color OS mainly for the Unified Storage and the rest of Color OS features.
Is it possible to flash the official 2.1.5 stable build through TWRP recovery?

Help pleasee

Please help
I just updated my swift 1 to Nougat
Now i can't flash twrp
After flash it successfully
It boot the stock recovery not twrp

Hold 'volume-down' and 'power' for the restart after flashing, if you reboot into system, it will overwrite TWRP with stock recovery again.

So how i can boot to twrp
Thanks

If you press VolDn and connect USB, TOS111B Nougat Swift 1 boots into fastboot which has menu to boot into recovery.
However the twrp-3.1.1-0 cannot not mount f2fs /system, so you can backup/restore all but system. Of course you can always fastboot flash Nougat system. As mentioned, if you do not prevent it, original recovery will overwrite custom one upon system reboot.

Hi I'm very thankful for your reply
But I am i little bit newbie at fastboot
Can you please show me how to do that in steps ?

I had a friend's Swift here yesterday. No longer today.
I recall:
Press VolUp and connect USB to computer -> boots into fastboot [-not- VolDn (my bad)]
inside fastboot is a menu to reboot (system or recovery or fastboot)
I think one should also reboot recovery with VolDn+Pwr
sorry to ask: Why do you need to boot into TWRP?
Also, system boot restores stock TWRP. You need to modify system to avoid it. Typically some
rc script copies the partition back so you need to find that script and/or rename the file.

Because i wanna to install linage because after updating to Nougat the touch is not working probably at portrait mode but on landscape it works fine
Example if i want to type hahahahaha
It type the letter between it "sdfsddf"

Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
After successful installation:
Code:
fastboot reboot
and immediately press and hold 'Volume-down' and 'Power' until your Swift has restarted.
If you want go switch to Lineage, proceed as described here:

ok : initially you asked "boot to twrp"
but: it turns out now you want to "install twrp"
I was answering wrong question.
Or, did you already have twrp installed?
Note that even if you have on stock Nougat, it will be overwritten unless you prevent it.
Also note that even if it overwritten.
You may want to boot recovery from fastboot and it may end up in twrp.
I agree that's confusing but that's what I experienced yesterday.
Again I do not have the device here anymore.

perhaps try (assuming you already flashed stock nougat from fastboot):
reflash twrp from fastboot and reboot to it from fastboot menu (use volume button to change start to recovery)

7 .Reboot, Done!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please Note:
1. There will be red blinking notification due to flashing Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_Quota_.zip, you can just ignore it. If you don't like the red bliking notification, just restore your nvdata, vendor and system from twrp backup.
2. Don't relock bootloader after flashing twrp, it might brick your device. (Don't use fastboot flashing lock)
3. You cannot restore preloader_a and preloader_b partitions using twrp, only you can backup the two partitions, so always uncheck these two partitions before performing a twrp restore.
4. Please don't use minimal adb and fastboot tool, use Latest ADB and Fastboot Installer tool , link is provided below.
Features:

https://github.com/bkerler/oppo_ozip_decrypt

How to boot to recovery:
A. From adb:
adb reboot recovery

fastboot oem reboot-recovery
C. There is no way to boot to recovery using power + vol down button after unlocking your bootloader. Only above two methods will work. (Don't relock bootloader after flashing twrp, it might brick your device)
Warning: if you did not follow the steps properly, either the twrp will be blank or you will be in endless recovery mode bootloop or you will revert back to stock recovery next time you try to boot to twrp.
