Hi there !
Today, after downloading an OTA update, my phone told me "Installation Failed", and now, it is stuck in recovery mode after booting.
I've been rooted (using kingroot im a nub ikr) but unroot as soon as possible cause i only needed to change the MAC adress of my phone to be able to use it in a hotel. Then, as i said, unroot, change back to my original MAC adress, install OTA and boom, stuck into recovery mode without any possibility to boot, normal or fastboot. I tried to wipe data and cache but it doesn't work. I've been looking to this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/help/oneplus-x-stuck-recovery-failed-ota-t3262390 ) but, unfortunately, i don't have any SD card, so my questions are, will the thread method work if i buy a new SD card ?
And will i have to download and flash the full rom or only the OTA ?
PS: No custom ROM, no custom recovery. || Sorry for english, french student and not really pro.
Never OTA with root installed/adjustments made. You could manually download the OTA zip and flash it.
hi
1st are u on stock recovery or twrp
download the full rom place it on the root of ur sd or internal storage NOT in any folder
do a full wipe and flash the rom u should be ok good luck
I fixed my issue, i was on stock recovery wich means you can't access the storage, here is what i've done -->
Install ADB+Fastboot
Connect Phone to PC in fastboot mode
Flash twrp after unlocking bootloader
Now phone recognized, i've downloaded stock onyx ROM from one plus
Then i've flashed the ROM from twrp and my phone finally boot...
Full tutorial for those experiencing that issue

So I decided to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP, i knew that unlocking it would wipe the data but what happened to me was that after trying to reboot into the system and install SuperSU it would always return to recovery and now it says no OS detected. So now i have to flash a completely stock image and i dont have one. Can anyone help???
EDIT: Used the restore tool(cant remember who by) and it worked fine.
Official twrp does not support squashfs which the new system is in, here is an unofficial build from the twrp forum on the lg g watch

I re-unlocked my device a few days ago after a long time of using MIUI. Unfortunately, I am now facing a peculiar problem I had not faced the previous time I unlocked my device.
I cannot seem to replace MIUI stock recovery with official TWRP.
If I use fastboot flash recovery xxx.img, the terminal does confirm that the action was successful. Yet, when I reboot into recovery, I am greeted by Mi-Recovery 3.0 instead of TWRP.
My initial thought was that maybe there was some restriction in MIUI that prevented the stock recovery from being replaced, so I flashed RR 5.8.5-FINAL. I still cannot flash TWRP.
Some other info:
The MIUI build I was on: MIUI 9 7.9.21 Global Beta
My phone: RN3 SD 2GB/16GB variant, Fpc fingerprint sensor
The temporary workaround I used to flash RR was directly booting into TWRP using fastbooot boot xxx.img
NOTE: I did a standard wipe (factory reset, followed by wiping System, Data and Cache) when I flashed RR.
As you might imagine, using fastboot to boot into TWRP every time I want to flash something is quite tiring and so if anyone can help me to permanently flash TWRP, I'd be really grateful. Thanks in advance.
PS: If this question has already been answered, then please guide me to the relevant thread and I will take down this one.
This problem also happened to my friend's Redmi Note 3 MTK. I don't know if it's going to work on KENZO or not.
The solution is to flash the TWRP recovery image through fastboot ==> Turn off the device by holding down the power button (DISCONNECT PHONE FROM PC) ==> Boot the recovery using button combinations
This should let you boot into TWRP and stays permanent after the first session
Flashing Through Fastboot/EDL Mode
Flashing Twrp through Fastboot is the permanent way of flashing the recovery...The method is very simple and can be done even on locked bootloader but the thing in locked bootloader is that once you have flashed the TWRP the internal storage is inaccessible because the data is encrypted so you need to wipe->format data ...then press "yes" ..by typing yes the internal storage will be formatted completely so make sure you have a backup ...and do copy the ROM file in SD card for flashing ...after wiping process press install then select SD card and flash the ROM and gapps and enjoy the TWRP...
Refer this link for flashing process youtu.be/rCONN1_IPuU(please add https:// before the link)
Hope this solves your problem...
same problem !! did you find any solution !!!
So, I kind of rooted my device using Kingo Root and it wasn't successful (I guess). So, in fastboot mode, I tried OEM unlock and it didn't work too; but anyway, I flashed TWRP recovery into my phone and through that I tried to install CM 13,14 custom ROMs which was completely unsuccessful. It doesn't allow me to install any ROM. And says that root privilege is lost. And now, all that I have access to is a phone stuck in bootloop and TWRP which doesn't allow me anything to do because apparently root access is lost. :crying:
I tried every method of flashing via YGDP tool and it is stuck at 'entering download mode'. I have installed different drivers over and again to fix as suggested by different threads but still, it's the same. [Windows 8.1] . And is there any other tool to flash this same stock ROM or better, can I get root access again in a bricked device and install a custom ROM any way?:fingers-crossed:
I also have access to ADB sideload via TWRP, so can I get stock ROM in .zip format. So far, I can only find it in .CPB format; maybe I can use .zip stock ROM via ADB sideload to flash it. Please help if any of this is possible.
*Apology for such a long question but I think you guys must know everything in order to provide me with a fix*
It's fixed.

Its fixed now, I assume it was because of the ROM file being downloaded through chrome in phone, I downloaded ROM and GApps in PC and flashed through TWRP and bam! Its back on:laugh:
TWRP - 2.4.4
ROM - Resurrection Remix 5.7.2
Thanks anyways!
Hello everyone,
I have a redmi note 4X with MTK soc
The bootloader is unlocked.
I want to flash TWRP recovery. I use adb, the "nickel " TWRP, and message in the cmd window was "ok"
but when i reboot, whatever the way (buttons or adb reboot), it still reboot on the stock recovery.
I've tryed many times, even with a "moly" TWRP (with my MI 4S, the "aqua" didn't work and I had to flash the "libra" one and it was all effective)
Tryed to re install adb, etc. Wathever, it's always "ok" in adb but still reboot on the stock recovery.
Can't try with flashtool or that kind of (Mitool Flash atc) because I can't find the right "scatter" files....
Does anyone have a clue? what is blocking?
Thanks for help
You must reboot back to recovery, not to system, after installing TWRP.
1. Install TWRP
2. Reboot to Recovery (not to system) - this means you will see TWRP screen again
3. Now you can reboot to System
This is only done for the first time installing TWRP. Next time, TWRP will always be there.
Hello,
Well please I need new help !!
Now I'm fighting a new issu !! Now that I at last managed to flash TWRP, and enter in this custom recovery, my phone don't boot system anymore !! stay stuck on the MI logo (
Do I need to flash the boot.img ? But why the hell would a recovery flashing would have change the boot partition??
And if so, where please could I find the boot.img for MIUI 10.1 stable?
Hello,
For those who have the same issu.
I've flashed a boot.img file found in unzipped miui rom zip.
- download from xiaomi.eu the right rom
- unzip
- find the boot.img file
- flash it with adb / fastboot
Well, So now I have my phone and datas back, and can boot on a custom recovery; but TWRP don't work well. Doesn"t keep the settings, can't install anything (it doesn't find any file when exploring ) and can't wipe cache (as if it can't read partition). That's all I tryed by now, I despair a little and that's a lot of time for an easy thing (was very easy on other phones)
Well, this time I'm flooded, i' ll take somme time but don't give up trying to root that phone
Start again, and I recommend ZCX-TWRP-3.0.2-X-REDMI_NOTE4-MTK_Nikel-16.11.18.img and Magisk instead of SuperSU

Hi, today I was more than seven hours on PCr and tried this....unsuccessfully... I'm really desperate
I have:
-Xperia Z2 (D6503)
-Android 6.0.1
-newest firmware 23.5.A.1.291
-UNlocked bootloader
I am trying to install root, twrp recovery and custom ROM ( specifically this ROM ). But i cannot enter to the recovery mode...
Official twrp-3.0.2-0 succesfully flashed in fastboot but when i try command "fastboot reboot recovery" the mobile only load android and turns on normally... the combination hardware buttons also do not work.
The next question is, What is a kernel ? I have successfully installed this kernel .... Could this be the reason why I can't load the recover mode?
Please help me, I don't know what to do anymore :crying: all I want is root and custom rom
EDIT: okay, i successfully root phone and finally i have access to recovery mode (TWRP 3.0.2-0) by THIS TUTORIAL now i need help with installing the custom ROM step-by-step because if I turn something wrong and phone will be bricked again, I guess I'll kill myself xD so What is next step for install custom ROM please ? Can I just download THIS, install the zip in TWRP and that´s all ???
Yup you can install it by recovery steps:

before you do this you should backup all your important data
1-wipe data factory reset
2- wipe cache
3- install zip rom
4- download google apps and install it by recovery it should be a zip file
5-repot system and enjoy
the recovery is like twrp or cwm it's not a kernel
there is 2 type of kernel :
1-kernel itself
2-kernel with merged recovery
about the kernel and recovery, there is deference the kernel is very important for system to work it connects between the hardware and the software and every operating system has its own kernel but here in android they sometimes merge kernel with recovery but when you flash-kernel or recovery every one replace each other be careful and know that, don't worry you won't brick something in the near future when you will install custom ROMs you will notice that.
if you need any help you can ask me
