What am I doing wrong? (My goal is to download twrp onto my lg V10)

Which directory is your recovery located. It needs to be in your adb folder. And what version of Android are you on? If you're on MM then Fastboot commands will not work. But if you're on LP it should still work.

I have been Having the same problem
I recently updated my H901 to MM and have been receiving this error every time. I have attempted this on multiple computers that have been used to successfully root the phone before on LP. I am convinced this is a phone issue related to MM.
None of the root guides available online seem to address this type of problem.
is there a new process for MM?

Fastboot commands are blocked onthe MM update. therefore no recovery can be flashed atm.

This worked for me
Hi. Im a newbie, so I can't post links yet, but I was having the same error, but I found a method that worked for me. It began:

Download the TOT TWRP file and save it to your desktop.
Download the LGUP tool and save it to the desktop.

Did you find your solution because I'm stuck at the same thing. I had touch screen issues after flashing a ROM. So I RSD back to stock but the touch screen problem persist. I read of the PDS fix in a post and I'm getting the same error but with trying to erase/write my PDS backup to the phone.
Make sure you put the image you are trying to flash in the same folder as your fastboot.

OP said it fails when trying to erase as well. So it's not file placement issues.

Having same problem here... any solution?
why not just flash the one from rom manager then flash the zip to the one you want through that. thats what i did works perfect!

Attempted to root Nexus 9, Now boot looping

Hi,
I followed this article -> phandroid DOT com/2014/11/05/how-to-root-nexus-9/ (Sorry, new account, can't link) to the letter, and everything seemed to go well, until the last step where I ran "fastboot reboot" which returned "error: device not found" I thought nothing of this as there was a reboot option on the devices screen, so I rebooted, I get the google logo, followed by the four orbs, then it says "Optimising app x of 99" once this is done, its back to the orbs again and it just repeats.
I tried restoring to factory defaults from the recovery menu, that did nothing, then sometime after I noticed I actually cant turn the device off any more, if I hold the power button it turns off, but reboots instantly. I tried going through the steps again, but no luck, the only change was that I didn't have the error at the end, and the first Optimising dialogue said 104 apps, not 99, but all the rest afterwards have said 99.
I'm not sure what do do from here, any advice?
Here's my cmd output:

Try returning to stock and trying again. See method 2 of this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58956577

That root method is for the old 5.0 Android; it doesn't work anymore with 5.1.1. Go back to stock using jd1639's link, then run Chainfire's Auto-root and you should be good to go. Link is here: https://download.chainfire.eu/595/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-flounder-volantis-nexus9.zip. There's supposedly an update coming in the next week or so to fix the stagefright vulnerability, make sure you do NOT take it in case it does weird things that could cause you to lose root.
(I know it says Volantis and not flounder but the Nexus 9 is known by both names, just to keep things confusing)
Thanks guys, root is now all working
Had a strange way of getting there though, I went back to stock, then tried the auto root as mentioned, but I had the same problem again, so I re-flashed just the boot.img file from stock, powered up, and lo and behold, root working fine

Your better off doing the bootloader unlock, then flashing TWRP recovery, then flashing supersu. IMO using autoroot methods make no sense. You now have no recovery and if anything goes wrong you have to flash all of the factory images again. And what if you want to use a custom rom? I would highly recommend getting TWRP at http://twrp.me and flashing it. Then you can actually make full backups in case of disaster. Good luck!

Hey, to unlock bootloader you enable developer settings in android, check the "enable oem unlock" switch, boot the device into fastboot mode "adb reboot fastboot" and issue "fastboot oem unlock". This is assuming you have adb and fastboot in your path/working folder. Then, download the lastest twrp - flounder-2.8.7.0.img - and "fastboot flash recovery flounder-2.8.7.0.img". The flounder version of twrp works for both LTE and WIFI variants. If you need any more assistance just let me know.

Yes, my apologies... I forgot to mention this. You will definitely want to pull any pictures or other files you might want to keep from the /sdcard partition. Or anything else because ALL DATA WILL BE WIPED.

LG G5 TWRP fastboot failing

Hi all,
I have an LG G5 H850. I'm trying to install TWRP using ADB. I've had it previously and it worked fine. I'm pretty sure the bootloader is unlocked. Anyway, when I do "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1.1-0-h850.img" I get the following output:

To me, that looks as though thats worked fine. Now when I try fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.1-0-h850.img I get the following:

Same here
I am having the same problem, please help
Had this issue a while back. I resorted to doing complete flash with LGUP to the latest version and then it worked. I had been messing around with various ROMS on different android versions.

Don't happen to know where I could get a rom that it would work with do you?
Managed to solve this. Flashed the TWRP image using fastboot flash recovery <img> via adb. Then I unplugged from USB, and got into recovery mode by doing power + volume down buttons and quickly release and repress ont he LG logo. Answered yes to both questions and got into TWRP.

That is the required way of doing it. You have to boot into recovery after flashing the recovery or it gets reset.
Hi,
Having a similar problem since trying to update my ROM ... and the Magisk install failed. Now I can only get to fastboot, can't get to recovery. And, tried this,

Return to stock after flashing custom ROMs (Fastboot method)

Note- This is tested on BKL-L09 C675 Indian variant and BKL-L09 C432 EU variant but will work on any variant of V10.
Hi Folks,
As I shared my experience on the issues I faced while moving back to stock from custom ROMs here , in this thread, I will share the detailed steps to go back to on stock avoiding any issues.
If you are on any custom ROM i.e. with Android/EMUI 8.1 TWRP backup will not work except BKL-L04. And only way that comes handy is fastboot (haven't tested the dload method myself yet as didnt had the SD card when I faced the issue but you can follow that, it will not break anything).
So before you start moving further to stock, please have these 3 files handy-
1- Stock recovery ramdisk
2- Stock boot ramdisk
3- system.img
Case 1- Custom ROM + Stock Boot + Stock Recovery (Applicable for new Open Kirin ROMs- RR and LOS which needs stock Ramdisk and if you are not using magisk)
On custom ROM, connect your phone with USB debugging enabled. (please make sure all the drivers are installed, it will already be as you may have the same which flashing the custom ROM)
Run the command to boot to fastboot
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
On fastboot screen, you will have bootloader state as Unlocked and FRP Unlocked.
Flash System image as below, Wait for process to finish, it may take 1-2 minutes for entire flash (93 seconds in my case)
Code:
PS C:\adb> fastboot flash system BKL-C432B130_system.img or fastboot flash system <system_filename>.img

Code:

Remove USB and press volume up key to boot to recovery.
Perform factory reset and wipe data as well.
Once completed, reboot to system.
Case 2- Custom ROM + Stock Recovery + Magisk (Root) ( applicable for New open Kirin ROMs- RR and LOS which needs stock ramdisk and if you are using magisk)
I forgot that I had magisk and had to gone through more issues as post boot, my IMEI was missing and no SIM service but if you have magisk installed, please be more careful and flash stock boot (attached for BKL-L09 EU version)
Run the command to boot to fastboot
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
On fastboot screen, you will have bootloader state as Unlocked and FRP Unlocked.

Once booted on any of the case, you will be on full stock with unlocked bootloader. (you need to either dload to lock the bootlaoder or run the command - fastboot oem urelock <16 digit bootlaoder code> to relock the bootlaoder).
Working and tested myself and confirmed by one more user(Sandeep Dash). So, if you follow the steps correctly, you should not face any issue but in case you get stuck anywhere or not clear with steps and I will try to help as much as I can.

Thanks. Nope buddy, as you already have stock recovery (for new Open Kirin ROMs) and only boot ramdisk was modified (for Magisk)
But yes, if you flashed twrp then you need it. Thanks for highlighting it, i will fix this.

Oh, I see. I was just a little confused about this part then:
shashank1320 said:
So before you start moving further to stock, please have these 3 files handy-
1- Stock recovery ramdisk
2- Stock boot ramdisk
3- system.img

FOr me it was unofficial as I was using OpenKirin ROM as per requirement it should be stock recovery only.
for other ROMs or backup, you can try the unofficial one as official doesnt work on Android 8.1 and it will show random content or character in TWRP so you can not restore or say access the stuffs on your internal memory. I used the unofficial one given here

Yes. Code will remain the same throughout the phone lifecycle. It is based on phone serial number, product if amd IMEI which remains the same and unique for every phone

It will not allow to flash or wont boot.
You may need to flash the oeminfo file first and then system img. Had this been this easy, i would have rebranded to Indian version. See one of my debranding guide in signature

Using erecovery would be easier if u have fast internet and I heard it doesn't relock the bootloader
I mean the relock doesn't matter according to u as we can just use the code several times ...then I guess dload is easier only need a SD card...I mean it doesn't even matter which one of the scenarios we are in as mentioned by u in the OP.

Erecovery download is difficult and give error many times.
Dload actually lock the bootloader and you will be on full stock.
In my case, i had to relock the bootloader as it was in bootloop and i knew relocking will give me erecovery to download.

I can not install Android 8.0 Oreo with TWRP 3.2.2
After installing TWRP, Android is not restarted. It remains on the reset screen. How do I solve this problem?

Make sure you have flashed the correct oreo firmware first if coming from Nougat.

Tried to flash the new recovery but it wont load. Phone just powers off. How can i roll back on previous version? Do i need adb and commands? Feel a little naked without a recovery
Edit : looks like the twrp file downloaded was incomplete so recovery was wiped. Tried to download it tru official site on my phone but was getting incomplete files everytime. Downloaded and flashed tru official twrp android app.
how to install this twrp from hermes?
