my pc recognizes my phone with fastboot but it doesnt with recovery - Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Questions & Answers

So... i tried to install a custom rom with adb sideload, but windows doesnt recognize my phone with "adb devices", but when i start it with bootloader, it works. I did this once but i dont know why i cant do it now

If it works with bootloader, use the command: fastboot reboot recovery
If it just goes back to the bootloader or does nothing, maybe you need to reflash the recovery ( is it TWRP?)

cant enter recovery

ive installed a rom and it wont boot (FC's loop), i tried to enter recovery (-vol and power when phone is off) but it keeps trying to boot, ive flashed loads of roms and entered recovery a fair few times so i dont know why i cant do it now!
Do you have the Android SDK or any other adb tool installed on your PC? If you do, try plugging the phone in to the USB port on the PC and open a command prompt.
Type this:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Not sure if that will work if the phone doesn't boot into Android though. You might have to time it just right, to find a point when the phone responds to adb commands but before it reboots.
How far does the phone get before it reboots? Do you just get the splash screen, the bootanimation, or what exactly happens?
Actually, you might have more luck with using fastboot from a command prompt:
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader

DESPERATE need help!! one x recovery failure??

so i had just htc dev unocked my one x, now i was using hasoons tool, and when i tried to flash a recovery in fastboot with commands, everything in the prompt said okay.. flashed successful and so on, and the bar on the top right hand side of my phone flickered as if to load, but didint. now when i go to recovery mode, it gives me the splash screen with some red letter **** about distrabution, then reboots. ive tried flashing every possible recovery for the one x, including stock, and seems to do nothing, help??

EDIT EDIT: i can power off, and get back into fast boot with volume off, but im almost asuming i just have no recovery..... and it will NOT! boot into the phone no matter what, only booting into that screen... what the **** do i do lol this is kind of a panic now
Have you tried reflashing stock recovery? Also shouldn't you be in the AT&T One X forum unless of course you have the international version of the One X.
I have tried the stock recovery, but now its in fastboot and won't get recognized by adb on my pc as it did. It just boot loops now at that screen and won't get recognized. And this isn't at. &t

You're suppose to flash stock recovery in fastboot.
I know, I tried when it was getting recognized, now I can't even pick it up with adb
so its telling me to flash the stock RUU, but i cant use adb commands it wont recognize in fastboot, the computer dings when i plug it in, but adb devices comes up with nothing, i tried every usb port on my pc and everything

First of all ADB only works in RECOVERY mode not directly in bootloader. So do the following steps & instal custom rom (Any1 u like).
1. You need recovery.img in your fastboot directory
2. Go into bootloader and connect phone
3. Then use: "fastboot boot recovery.img" (thus booting your image from pc and not the installed recovery).
4. When in recovery, you can use the adb commands.
5. You can try with "adb devices" which should show you serial of phone.
6. command: adb push rom_rom.zip /sdcard

Need help! Bootloader / fastboot unknown issue!

Hi everyone,
I´ve been trying to install twrp recovery in my Huawei Ascend P6 via fastboot. I followed this "techglen adb and fastboot guide"
I already installed everything needed for adb conection.
So I connect my phone in MTP mode and use "adb devices" and my device appears normally, but the problem happens when I reboot into Bootloader/Fastboot mode and use "Fastboot devices" it appears a device conected but with a bunch of "?????" and a smiley face at the end like this:
C:\Fastboot>adb devices
List of devices attached
123456789 device --------> bunch of numbers appear normally
C:\Fastboot>adb reboot bootloader --------> Phone restarts into bootloader mode (shows huawei ascend logo)
C:\Fastboot>fastboot devices
????????_?_???_?<??????? fastboot ----------> WTF (this is exactly what appears)
I would like to know if there's something wrong with my phone
Should I proceed and flash the custom recovery?
I have stock android 4.4.2 (rooted with kingroot) and stock recovery.
I am a total noob at this so I need your help :crying: I dont want to do anything stupid. (If already did let me know lol)
I have the same issue. Problem is that phone is bricked, so I can only enter in recovery (official, unrooted, unlocked) and fastboot mode.
Have you managed to solve or have some hint?
I have experienced a inconsistency while using minimal adb and fastboot. While device not showing i could send command and the phone would respond. After going into bootloader and while my device wasn't shown in the list i could flash twrp without much trouble, helped me go back from being stuck on bootanimation. used the command fastboot flash recovery xxxx.img (where xxx is the name recovery name). If you can get into boot loader try fastboot reboot bootloader and if the phone responds you might be in the same situation i was.
Always remember: Messing with recoveries bootloaders and boot images might make your phone unusable so do it at your own risk
Have you actually tried to flash twrp? Did you put the img file of twrp to the minimal adb and fastboot folder? If so, try the commands 'fastboot flash recovery recovery_twrp.img(<-- use the name of twrp file here, so not the exact name wrote here) and reboot. My phone is a bunch of question marks as well and it flashed twrp just perfectly (I got it frome here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632542)

Now the phone starts normaly but I can´t start fastboot. When the phone is off and i press Vol down + Power the phone start the android system and the Huawei logo is coming not the fastboot Modus. I can see my phone and the order under Windows but i can not control my phone with the fastboot command. (example: fastboot device. the answere ist searching devices, but it comes no resolution) I loaded the last version of Fastboot, but the problem is the same.
Please can you help me. What can i do? Many thanks for your help!

And when you use adb to reboot to bootloader, what happen? Do you have "Minimal adb and fastboot tool" installed?

Sorry for my question, what´s the differents about adb and fastboot tool? I have install the last version of minimal adb and the fastboot tool, also the Windows driver for the phone. Debugging is on. I try to connect my phone about the fastboot terminal. When i try to set the phone into the bootloader mod with the fastboot terminal and the equivalent command, fastboot say´s "searching phone". My phone does not react.

So, you connect your phone, open minimal adb and fastboot too, run "adb devices", you see device id? If yes, run "adb reboot bootloader" . Phone shoult reboot to fastboot mode. Then run "fastboot devices" to see if it is connected properely.
i did it, like you described, but i see not my device id. Only the note "seach device"
Is it possible that TWRP is defect on my device? Is TWRP necessary for fastboot or only for root?

No, you should be able to use adb and fastboot with stock recovery.
After first adb command you shoult approve authorization on your phone.
Here is screenshot from minimal adb...
Phone must be in MTP mode.
And here is phone in fastboot
Many thanks for your help, now I m in my bootloader.
2 problems i had.
1. My daemon was not started correctly, i have not seen my device.
2. I used the wrong command. I started with fastboot, not with the command adb device. I tap „fastboot reboot-bootloader“,but the correct command is “adb reboot-bootlader“
Now i have seen my phone is unlocked, i hope i can root my android 6.

[LG-D855] Can't flash TWRP - boots into fastboot mode (tried adb, Flashify, TWRP app)

I've been trying to flash TWRP recovery to my rooted LG G3 D855 (running 4.4.2 KitKat). I used the "Bump" method (thread) since I don't have an unlocked bootloader.
I tried the ADB method in that thread, I tried the Flashify method, and I tried the Official TWRP App. Each time, the recovery flashed correctly. But when I attempted to reboot into recovery (using the method in the linked thread, or in the case of the apps, they prompted me to reboot into recovery), my phone didn't bring up TWRP recovery or even the stock recovery. It just brings up "fastboot mode started". It's not stuck though, it boots normally when I pull the battery and power on.
I also separately tried rebooting it into fastboot mode with it plugged into my computer. When I entered "adb devices" into the command prompt, the device came up. Then I rebooted it into fastboot mode and entered "fastboot devices" - then nothing came up. I entered some other fastboot commands and it said "< waiting for device >". So it appears I can't issue normal fastboot commands either.
Any thoughts on how I can succesfully flash TWRP? Thanks.
i have installed my TWRP via this app -- https://ulozto.sk/!lisJevpDG1oS/recovery-d722l-apk
try hope itll help you
Well, somehow you failed to install it. Upgrade to LP (preferably v21C) and try this
