Hello all,
I have rooted my phone with TWRP and Magisk (10.3.5 global rom on China hardware). I used fastboot boot only - did not flash TWRP permanently.
All seemed fine.
Today I wanted to make a TWRP backup - and to my greatest surprise TWRP.img (which worked before) does not work any more.
Fastboot devices shows the phone but when I try fastboot boot TWRP - I get an error message and the phone reboots.
I have checked usb debugging and it is enabled.
How can I boot in TWRP and why doesnt it work when it worked before?
Thank you for any suggestions!
Update: trying a different computer worked. So this seems to be a PC issue: a laptop which first worked now does not work. My desktop works...
You can try
Code:
fastboot boot name_file_recovery.img

I just got my OnePlus 3 last week and I am having some issues trying to root it. Initially, I was using Win7 and could not get anything to work (phone was never recognized - yes drivers were installed). I went to my laptop with Ubuntu 16.04 and had some success. I was able to unlock the phone; however, when I tried to flash twrp.img (and recovery.img), I kept getting a fastboot permissions denied error. I was using sudo and fastboot devices worked. Also, if I try "sudo fastboot boot twrp.img" nothing happens on the phone (or pc for that matter). I am totally perplexed. The OS on the phone is Oxygen 3.2.4. Thanx for any assistance.

Install all driver (1+ Mobile Usb driver and Adb)
Than Follow Toolkit Method On Xda.. Its work Fine For me... ? and Follow their Video
I had a similar problem with mine. I could flash TWRP but it wouldn't stick. Reboot the phone and try again, the factory recovery would be back. I tried every version of TWRP, adb, fastboot and the toolkit -- same result.
Finally fixed it by using the toolkit to flash the previous version of TWRP, then using TWRP to flash the latest version without rebooting the phone. With that done, no problems after rebooting system.
Now I can flash new ROMs.
How old does twrp have to be before you get positive results?
Hello!
I unlock the bootloader, installed TWRP (several versions) but it doesn't work.
I enter in recovery, select YES in both options, the green android shows up and the phone just boot normally. TWRP options never displayed.
Any help on this? Plz...
Thank you!

1. fastboot boot recovery your_recovery_image.img
2. flash twrp image from booted twrp
Or fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
No ! This doesnt work. Read the official twrp xda thread.
Hi!
I tried all that, flashed all TWRP versions, all available versions of european rom for LG G4 H815, nothibg... the damn thing just don't work on my phone
Have you followed the right steps?
First use fastboot boot twrp.img (boot not flash)
Then within twrp copy the twrp image from your pc by adb or mtp then use the button to flash an image and then choose the copied twrp to flash to recovery
Now I think you got me... I followed the tutorial how to install twrp but, in the beggining I was having problems with the drivers. Win10 was changing them on every command, and after so much time (I went to sleep at 5 AM ) trying everything that it could work, maybe I just mess on that step....
Thanks for your help. As soon as I have time again, I'll check that step.
Thank you very much @steadfasterX !!!
It works
I followed this tutorial: http://www.technobuzz.net/install-twrp-recovery-on-lg-g4/
Thats why I got mistaken... Thanks once again

Hello, I have a huuuuge problem.
Every time I try to flash TWRP through cmd, nothing happenes. I have all needed files, my phone is being recognized in adb devices, reboots on command, is on fastboot devices list, reboots on fastboot reboot command, but it totally do nothing when I use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img command. Maybe it's my drivers fault, because last time i uninstalled my device through Device Manager, somehow it worked and I flashed TWRP. But then I switched to MIUI and as expected TWRP was removed. And I cannot flash it, please help
Did you update to latest MIUI?
Yes, right now I'm on Global Stable.
Turn your pc into a new one then you will.
Why turn your PC into a new one? resetting?
Isn´t there another solution?
Removes old data such as adb,platformtool, twrp.then can do it.I've come across and solved this way Do not know why

Posted another tread:
I struggled a lot installing TWRP. I did not succeed flashing TWRP from my PC. My solution was:
Starting up TWRP: fastboot boot twrp.img / boot command only boot and does not flash.
Thereafter installed Magisk 17.1 from TWRP for rooting
Thereafter flashed TWRP / I tested flashing both by using Flashify and TWTP Manager and both worked.
Maybe by using Flashify I had to use an older version of TWRP. Think TWRP Manager let me install 3.2.3-0 direct without problems.
Hi guys,
I tried to flash TWRP on my Wiko Lenny 4 earlier.
I used adb and fastboot to flash it, however the touchscreen wouldn't work and I was stuck at the "swipe to allow kernel modifications" screen in TWRP. No problem, I reboot in recovery mode, and switched to fastboot mode.
I found another TWRP image and, after flashing with
-> fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I typed another command,
- >fastboot boot twrp.img.
Since then I am stuck at the Wiko boot screen, saying:
Orange State
Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted (initially I unlocked OEM)
Your device will boot in 5 seconds
Whatever combination of power+vol up/down I try to use, it only reboots to this screen.
adb won't reconize any device, as well as fastboot. And both are up-to-date.
Perhaps there exists a recovery image that I can put on my sd card, and hopefully it will automatically boot on the sd card as I don't have any control right now.
If someone has an idea, please tell me.
thanks
[EDIT] Solved
Using this link https://aiomobilestuff.com/how-to-unbrick-wiko-stock-firmware-via-wiko-official-site/
I was able to download Wiko's recovery tool from https://customer-world.wikomobile.com/
After unzipping and starting the software, it automatically installed drivers (I guess, if it does not, mediatek usb wiko drivers can be used instead) and downloaded the software into the phone which works now.
Hello. I decided today to clean install the Pixel Experience 10 rom. I previously had a Pixel Experience 9.0 Pie. I did the following:
1. Booted into TWRP and selected Format Data
2. Everything is deleted, so it's time to flash a new rom. The guide says to go Advanced/ADB sideload and enter a command.
3. Command is not working. My phone is connected to the computer but it's not recognized. I can't even manually transfer it to the phone so i can install it via TWRP.
So i enter fastboot. Phone is recognized. When i type fastboot devices i get this:
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot devices
42abad9b fastboot
If i try to flash again a TWRP, my phone disconnects and it asks to reboot the phone by pressing a volume button. And i am stuck here. Nothing i can do. Any suggestions? I haven't done anything unusual. I am truly desperate. Any help will be appreciated.

Hi !
Did you bypass ARB with dummy.img before you flashed TWRP?
Do you use win 10, if you are change usb or use usb hub. If that doesn't help use win 7.

I already had TWRP from long ago. And i didn't even try to flash a new ROM. I just formatted Data. I have the TWRP version 3.3.1-0. But as i said, PC does not recognize phone in TWRP and i can't adb sideload any ROM because of it.

Go back to previous version of TWRP(latest is buggy) or use OrangeFox recovery.
But still if you lose custom recovery you need again start over and bypass ARB.
And check if your bootloader is still unlock.

I can't go to a previous version of TWRP. I can't flash any recovery via fastboot because of the problem i said at the first post. I somehow managed to boot into some previous versions of TWRP via a tool called TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, but nothing changed. I had the same exact problems.
How will i check in my current status if bootloader is still unlocked?

Use this and post the result...
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
So you managed to get TWRP via TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE, ... when you are in TWRP flash TWRP again via TWRP or better flash OrangeFox Recovery(use SD CARD or adb push - for more info google it for adb commands), than reboot it directly into recovery again by TWRP option reboot to recovery... and now you can flash your ROM.
So make it simple
1st time you'll boot in TWRP by TOOL_ALL_IN_ONE,
than you'll flash recovery via TWRP and make it permanent,
Than you'll directly reboot to recovery via TWRP,
now you can wipe and flash your ROM.
Happy ending :highfive:
The problem was that i couldn't use ADB sideload because the phone wasn't recognized by the computer. And i fixed it in a very weird way, by connecting the phone to the PC monitor's USB hub and that way the phone was discovered by the computer. So i fastbootted the latest TWRP and then easily transferred the ROM i wanted to flash via TWRP. It's crazy that i spent all day just to connect the phone to a USB hub so it could work...
