Cant update TWRP to 3.0.0 (Castor_windy version) - Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I've got a SGP511 WiFi only (castor_windy), with root access and an unlocked bootloader. but to install AOSP 7.1 I need to update my version of TWRP to 3.0.0.
I installed TWRP via TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file and can access recovery but every time i select install look at my SD card and change to images and select the castor_winsy 3.0.0 image i dont get an option to install to recovery i only get kernel how do i resolve this ?
I have re flashed FW (KitKat) via flashtool loads of times
rooted
installed TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file
and every time i get the same option.... cant flash to recovery or boot only kernel
i have attached a screenshot so that nobody thinks i am going mad
can you please help me thanks :fingers-crossed:

It's been a while since I used TWRP 2.8.XX...so no idea what's the issue there but I'd just flash TWRP recovery via fastboot. Worked for me without any problems :good:

Hi ... Is that using the ADB fastboot recovery TWRP.img?
I am on KitKat just wondering if that's why it won't work have you got to be on 6.01 ?

Well, actually it shouldn't matter on which Android version you are, but to have the latest boot.img and radio.img installed I'd flash the latest stock ROM available here on XDA which means by the way having TWRP 3.0.2.0 as well and after that you might be ready for AOSP 7.1
Just have look at kulvertti's thread in the "General" subforum. Since you have already intalled a custom recovery there shouldn't be any problems.

Lockeddual recovery is not compatible with any custom rom
Please follow the instructions in the thread

Hi @rcstar6696,
i had no problem flashing the boot.img that part was ok but when i went to flash the recovery it never seemed to work for me, in the terminal window in the SDK programme tools folder which is the same folder as the image i downloaded from your thread is in (Twrp-3.0.0-0-castor-windy.img and twrp_castor_windy.img) it said something about sizes but said it went ok tried to boot into recovery and it never worked
in the terminal window whilst my SGP511 was in fastboot mode i typed fastboot recovery Twrp-3.0.0-0-castor-windy.img is this is correct script or have i got this wrong ?
i am currently on Kitkat does this matter

i tried to access recovery via the down volume button when the tablet starts up but no green light appears and it just starts normally ...... i ve not flashed the boot.img first then flashed recovery as ive seen it can be done via recovery the only option left now is to try flashing the boot.img first .... i have no option but to try that tonight and see if that can do it that way

@T4ke5 @rcstar6696 thanks very much guys for your help TWRP on 3.0.0 now and AOSP 7.1 installed now

It's not bricked, I think you need to reinstall a recovery. I recommend TWRP 2.5 instead of 2.6 because 2.5 has no bugs. Try to restore your nandroid backup (if you haven't any try one of these: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2324815 and choose your cid) and then flash SuperSU: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

Dude if its saying not rooted you were supposed to flash the supersu.zip in twrp and then update it then you would have root privleges you flashed a rom without root the supersu didnt you? And it basically bricked it so hold vol down and power boot into h boot go to recovery it will boot you into twrp check to see if you do have that supersu.zip if you have it flash it and you dont have s-off look in that rom package and find the kernel (boot.img) flash it and wipe your dalvic cache and your cache and it should boot into that rom but if you dont have that supersu.zip you mite have to side load it then flash it

Turn your phone into fastboot mode (holding power and volume down when turning on) and plug it into your pc.
Extract the zip file and run ''Install Boot.img.bat'' and reboot

First of all that message is totally normal in the first screenshot.
The USB icon is missing because in later bootloaders you are instantly in fastboot if you don't select anything.
Now for the problem.... Where did you get that TWRP 2.6 from and what version that you flashed in fastboot...
There are warning all over the Hairybean first post telling you not to flash any other version of twrp on there except what the upgrade puts on because they are not compatible and they will brick you.
If you have flashed a Prime JB TWRP on there you could be in trouble.
Where did you get that TWRP 2.6 from and what version that you flashed in fastboot... from their webpage the 2 in the botom
There are warning all over the Hairybean first post telling you not to flash any other version of twrp on there except what the upgrade puts on because they are not compatible and they will brick you. im sure in 99% it was the jb version

You wasn't supposed to use any of them. That is what all the warnings are for.
Can I ask why you flashed it? Compatible 2.6 twrp was included in the bootloader upgrade.

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.

What do you means by "wipe everything"? include internal storage?
And i heard that official twrp dont have the option of "not to protect twrp".

Yes, including internal storage.
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.

Hey, I don't know if you ever found the stock recovery but another member had posted fastboot images in the OnePlus2 Android Development section.
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:

One Plus X soft (?) bricked

Hi guys,
Before you say again a topic on a non bricked One Plus X, I would like to let you know that I've checked and try almost all of the tutorial I've seen on xda and one plus forum.
I was on CM14.1 with this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-onyx-t3452150
Unfortunately, I made the 25-12-2016 update and it totally broke up the phone..
I download the OnePlus X OxygenOS 3.1.4 on the One Plus website. So I flash it on the stock recovery, it tells me "Install success" then I reboot and it stays on the bootlogo.
For information, I can't access the oem unlock menu if needed, but when I ask the oem device info it says unlocked. The phone is detected by the computer sometimes with unknown device and sometimes correctly with the qualcomm drivers..
I have a back up made from TWRP, I can access the device by the fastboot mode, it seems that all the operations written here worked but it doesn't install or even boot on TWRP..
Thanks for your help guys.

I'm not even using TWRP, since I can't boot on it.. But I tried to flash the twrp-3.0.2-2 from blue spark v41, after the installation via Flashboot, it doesn't boot up on the recovery..
So after flashing TWRP you use fastboot boot recovery.img and nothing happens?

If you did not unlocked bootloader properly then also you might face the problem...

make sure you follow all the step. (If you didn't followed these steps then lock bootloader {fastboot oem lock} and unlock using this mathod, worked for me.)

Start by seeing if you can fastboot flash stock recovery from any 2.X.X OOS. Then fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2. If your on new bootloader meaning latest ROMs or OOS3 then you need to boot into 3.0.2 and from there you can flash IMG of twrp 3.0.3. Make sure you boot right back into recovery after flashing any twrp or it won't stick. This worked for me when I lost my recovery twice but always remember at your own risk. Not responsible if you make your phone into a paper weight.
Fix It!

Huawei Honor 7 flashing stock ROM

Hello everyone! I'm new on XDA and this is my first thread.
So, I've been messing around with my Honor 7 lately. I've flashed a custom recovery (TWRP), flashed a custom ROM (Unofficial CM13 for Honor 7: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7/development/unsupported-cyanogenmod-13-honor-7-plk-t3542627) and root (SuperSU) and I've started to regret all of my decisions so I would like to take a fresh start (AKA flashing the STOCK ROM/Firmware)
Now, before anyone starts redirecting me to other (similar) threads, I've tried a lot. I tried to flash the stock recovery (a lot of different versions) but still when I try to boot into the stock recovery, my phone just reboots. I tried to do the force update thing (holding both power + & - buttons: http://www.gogorapid.com/flash-stock-rom-huawei-honor-7/), but this combination just boots my phone into TWRP. Could it be that I'm doing something wrong or that I'm missing something, like some requirements that are not being met? Please help me, I would appreciate it a lot! Thanks in advance.

It seems that you didn't flash the stock recovery properly.

Thanks for the reply!
Could it be? I booted my phone into bootloader (unlocked) and flashed stock recovery with adb using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". I tried a variety of versions (from B100 up to B330 I think), but none of them seemed to work. What am I doing wrong?

Hey,
Sorry for the slow reply, I'm currently on vacation. Euh I already have TWRP installed right now, I just don't know how to install the stock recovery.

Grab the stock recovery file for your device. You can flash inside TWRP itself.

I tried that, read my second post on this thread. It didn't work, I didn't know which version I had to use. I ended up with a bootloop on various versions as mentioned in one of my first posts.

Alright, I will try this. As soon as I get back home since the wifi here sucks.

I planned on doing this though I don't know where I can get the firmware for my H7... Could you perhaps provide me a link? It would be very kind of you (+ The wifi here sucks, so I will try downloading firmwares when I get home)
