they can't be flashed with stock recovery, can be flashed only with existing cwm/twrp. if you're unlocked but running stock recovery, they can be flashed with safestrap.
all thanks to dhacker29!

So instead of using rsd to go back to stock, we can flash this as we would a custom ROM?

I can't seem to update TWRP, trying to flash using my current version of TWRP.

Thank you very much
Edit: I just fastbooted in TWRP 2.6.3.2 but when in TWRP it shows 2.6.3.0 still. It said it updated though through fastboot.

no, these zips update your cwm/twrp recovery to the latest version. if you want to avoid using rsd, make a nandroid of your stock unmodified system.

what is the problem, did the flash fail? did you reboot recovery after installing?

i have no idea what the problem could be. i flashed the new twrp with cwm, rebooted recovery, and it shows 2.6.3.2.
you did extract the recovery.img from the zip before fastbooting, correct?

you know what, i downloaded the img file from DHackers Android Hosting. Let me download the ZIP file and flash it through TWRP.

heh, well you got the image straight from the source, shouldn't have any problems with it. the ones in the zip files are unmodified except for being renamed to generic "recovery.img" (so i don't have to modify the updater-scripts for each one).

actually, just realized that twrp for the x still shows as 2.6.3.0, i was thinking of the new razr m twrp which does show 2.6.3.2. you can tell it's updated by the haptic feedback though.

Thank you. I figured it was updated because of the new vibration under settings.
Been driving myself nuts. I fastbooted it through fastboot, mfastboot, and mxfastboot.
Went back to hashcodes 2.6.3.1 then back.
Thank you for confirming.
Edit: DHacker just confirmed on twitter that he forgot to update a script so it will show 2.6.3 but all is well.

So will the CWM work on a 4.4 VZW Dev Ed? If so, can I flash it with TWRP? I know theres a CWM on the forums, but someone said you should only use TWRP with 4.4.

Correct. But would you need CWM to flash CWM, or could you use TWRP to flash CWM and it would overwrite TWRP?

Won't matter. I used twrp to flash the new twrp. Or use twrp to flash cwm. Shouldn't matter.

I've never flashed a recovery through a recovery. I've only ever used ADB. You can do two things.
1) Extract the zip file to remove the recovery img
2) If the OP doesn't mind me posting this you can go to DHacker's files and get the CWM recovery img he has there.

On the rezound I could take a .IMG recovery and rename it to PH98IMG.img, boot into bootloader, and it would auto flash the recovery... Does this method not work on the moto X?

[Q] TWRP update to 2.4

I am currently running TWRP 2.3.1.0 and would like to update it to the most current version. Is there a specific process that I have to go through in order to update it correctly, or can I just download if from Goomanager and install it without any additional steps?
Thanks
Goomanager should work fine assuming you're rooted

This is what I did.
I do mine via fastboot, it's pretty easy just run fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and just make sure the TWRP is in your fastboot folder and you replace recovery.img with the latest file name you downloaded. GooManger should be much easier if you don't wanna use fastboot.

To update emmc /recovery, use SD based recovery to flash a flashable recovery zip that contains the new emmc recovery version -- see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49024436&postcount=105 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49111924&postcount=8.
There is no zip for 2.6.3.1, but I found an app that flashes the recovery for me; this issue is solved.

It's now a moot point as your issue is solved, but you could make a flashable zip for any recovery .img using info at the link I referenced above (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=49111924&postcount=8).

[Help][LP 5.1] Needed boot.img for 'stock recovery backup experiment'.

I am going to do an experiment(flashing TWRP.img on boot partition and trying to root.) to backup stock recovery.img of Lollipop 5.1. To do this, I need stock boot.img(Kernel Version: 3.4.42-gccbac57) of system version 23.26.2. If there's someone who rooted system version 23.26.2 then take backup of boot.img using Rashr App(Download from here forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334554 ) and post that stock boot.img here.
If this experiment succeed then I will post stock recovery.img of lollipop 5.1.
UPDATE: I'm not going to do this experiment because temporary booting of twrp is now working on moto e. We can root device by temporary booting twrp and backup stock recovery.img
isn't there anyone who rooted 23.26.2 ?

It's simple, you just have to extract the boot.img from any ota zip (suggested the official OTA zip)
Do that and give him then.......it will be very good if he can make the 5.1 stock recovery

First of all, you must clarify who is referred to as 'him'?
Secondly, there is no method(according to me) by which you can make a stock recovery from a stock kernel. There are two files namely the boot.img and the recovery.img.
First one is the kernel and the second one is the recovery.
Use the ones you like.
Him meant the op
I don't know if one can make recovery from boot.img.......The op didn't say that either....He said and i quote "I am going to do an experiment to backup stock recovery.img of Lollipop 5.1. To do this, I need stock boot.img(Kernel Version: 3.4.42-gccbac57) of system "
So i thought by using some process he may be able to back up stock recovery....that is why i said like that
and BTW where are those .img files available @Rohitagni

U can find them in any zipped firmware files. By zipped firmware files, I mean the zips for stock firmware, or the update zips that many XDA users capture here from their rooted phones to help users who haven't received the OTA, enjoy the new OS, simply by sideloading.

I'm not making recovery.img from boot.img. I will use boot.img to make my device functional again because I'm going to flash TWRP.img on boot partition and try to root. If device gets root access then I can backup stock recovery.img because stock recovery.img is not over written in process of rooting.
I hope you succeed.........I try to get it from someone
And no @Rohitagni you can't extract boot.img from uploaded update zips but from full firmware zips,yes which is not available
I just saw in general section someone uploaded twrp backup of stock latest 5.1......I can flash that and give the boot.img tomorrow @EthicalHacker

I am extremely sorry, for misleading you guys! I just found out that the fsg.bin and the gpt.bin (with logo.bin, etc) are the only things that are available in those zips. So yes, @cksup, you are correct. Please provide him with the kernel, so that miracles can happen

We can't dump stock recovery without root access and moto e has only one rooting method which is flashing custom recovery on recovery partition. It means we lose stock recovery when we get root access.
That's why I'm taking risk of above mentioned experiment to backup stock recovery.

OnePlus 2 Stock Recovery

Hello
After searching the internet for good 30-40 minutes I found the Stock OnePlus 2 recovery image. I am returning my unit so needed it to be fully stock.
Download: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8np35kw71i222as/OPT Stock Recovery.7z?dl=0
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Been searching for this for past hour!!!!!!
Hi,
Thank you very much.
I'm also returning my phone to oneplus and i had unlocked and rooted the phone like you.
May i know how you restore the stock ROM and recovery?
thank you
Why do you need stock recovery for that? I just wiped everything on mine and when I rebooted from twrp I chose not to protect twrp. Rma was approved so I guess they were satisfied with that.

That I didn't know, but you don't void warranty by installing custom recovery or rooting so it shouldn't be an issue either way.

I haven't tested out the recovery myself, but you can check to see if it's the English one.

You have to install adb for Mac (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31374085/installing-adb-on-mac-os-x), enable USB Debugging on your phone, reboot into bootloader mode :

then go into:

TWRP 3.0 is up!

https://dl.twrp.me/angler/
So flash, much excite, such new. Wow.
Edit - I know I sound weird but I don't like dirty flashes. I always reboot into bootloader, fastboot erase recovery and then fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ( I rename it twrp.img for short) then boot into it. I have done this for years on BL unlocked devices and never had a problem flashing twrp. It's just ME, but I think it is fun typing the stuff, and it assures me that I have a clean state and am not dirty flashing anything! Also, on others phones I use RASHR instead of flashify. Once again, personal preference but have had better luck.
XDA Thread updated
And backs up with finger print
^ That's great news.
I tried flashed this but after trying to reboot into recovery got the broken android icon. Reflashed back to older version and it worked. Not sure if I had a corrupt come. Do you have to reboot the bootloader after flashing from fastboot for it to take? I just rebooted to system after flashing.

Just out of curiosity, did you use flashify? I know two other people that it borked the flash also. I recommend rashr. But I also flash via otg cable and usb drive. I'd say you most likely had a bork download. Delete the img, run trimmer, redownload it. And flash via rashr and reboot and respond if it fixed it. Good luck!

No problem dirty flashing here, but the process is a little different than it was on my previous phone where you would just flash it like a ROM...
You gotta:
"Download the latest TWRP image file (.img) from the download link and boot TWRP. Go to install and find and select the Images... button. Browse to the image that you downloaded and select it. Choose recovery and swipe to flash."
OP's method seems like the best bet though...

That's cause you're use to flashing zips people make flashable, i'm old school and use img's hahaha "LET'S MAKE FLASHING FUN!" Shutup Gytole...
Just out of curiosity has anyone tried flashing twrp as boot? I also have a thread in the tmobile G3 section and I almost wonder if thats why they bork their phone...lol
Just did it on my girlfriends G3 through twrp and was like, "they totally flashed it as boot...."
