[Q] Reverting to stock recovery with a LOCKED bootloader - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I feel like a noob posting this, but for the life of me, I can't find the answer: is it possible to revert to a stock recovery when the bootloader is still locked?
I currently have a stock (but rooted) ROM, stock recovery, and a locked bootloader. If I flash a custom recovery, is there anyway to go back to stock recovery WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader?
Thanks.

Edit: Just realized that I probably posted this in the wrong forum. My apologies. Mods, please move. Thanks.

Pull the stock recovery.img out of a stock rom and use flash_image in terminal to apply it.

How can I do that if I can't use fastboot commands (since my bootloader is locked)?

not a fastboot command, its adb, you can do it from a terminal app

I guess I'll read up on flash_image. Thanks mortzz & samir5421.

were you able to resolve this issue?
i'm in the same situation (locked bootloader, but rooted). i'm trying to re-flash the stock recovery, but keep getting a "flash_image" not found error when i try via terminal or ADB.

Since, when rooting, you need to remove the following files to prevent reverting back to stock recovery:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
Have you tried re-adding the files from a stock image?

Yeah, just search and download flash_image, copy it to your /system/bin directory, change the permissions on it so it can run, and then you should be able to use it.
Edit: Or restore the two files that danger-rat pointed to from a stock ROM.

Read Wiki and follow the instructions to flash custom recovery, just use the default recovery image instead of custom recovery.

Easier way to flash recovery with locked bootloader via battery mod?

I used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710842 to root without unlocking bootloader.
I want to flash the new amonra recovery 1.8.0.1
Fastboot flash recovery filename.img does not work (this is probably the limitation of this method of rooting without unlocking bootloader).
What's the best way/easier way to do this rather than going through steps 17-24
Thanks.
Besides using the one-click root? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=747598
Also, what's wrong with 17-24? You *have* to do this regardless in order to install stuff into /system, although actually not 100% sure if you have to do it in order to install a recovery.
I guess the point is you don't want to set up adb?

The one click root for nexus one didn't exist when I did mine using the tutorial i did.
everything works except you can't do a "fastboot flash recovery" command.
So using the One Click Root, lets you use the fastboot flash recovery command and keeps the bootloader locked?
Maybe I'll redo my phone.
You need to use flash_image command from the Terminal. Fastboot works only for original images when bootloader is locked.

[Q] backingup stock recovery???

I would like to know as to how can i backup stock recovery? Bcoz, i wish to go S-off and unlocked via Revone method, then flash TWRP, flash a few mods, and then get back to stock recovery , s-off, locked bootloader. Is that all possible. Does a nandroid backup, backup's stock recovery as well???
Thanks in advance guys.
You can't do a nandroid without custom recovery so that is out of the picture. OTA zip files however contain the recovery file you need.

If you're still on stock recovery at the moment - go into fastboot and command:
fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img
This will just boot into custom recovery without flashing it. Do a backup and it will backup your stock recovery.

You'll need to download either CWM or TWRP. You can rename the download if you want to something like cwm.img or twrp.img to make it easier.
Once the backup is done it will be on your phones internal storage in the clockworkmod or TWRP folder - depending which one you choose to boot. Just copy it to your PC.

One question though... i bought this phone as a used, and it was Tampered and Relocked. When I selected the recovery option, it booted the phone to somewhat stock like recovery, and then after some process, the phone rebooted, and the phone was totally Factory Reset.... everything in the storage was gone too..... so is there an way to check if it is indeed a stock recovery, or this is the normal behaviour of stock recovery...?
You need to unlock your bootloader before doing anything with custom recovery. Use Revone or the official HTC Dev method

this method of just booting a custom recovery used to work with OLDER hboot versions. but it doesn't work with newer hboots. my hboot version is 1.54.0000 and when I use the command mentioned above, my bootloader menu just freezes!! guess I'll have to look for the OTA file then to find the stock bootloader!

Not sure if it helps as I was still on 1.44 HBoot, but when I tried the command while the bootloader was locked, my bootloader would also freeze and I had to do a hard reset. Once I unlocked my bootloader, the boot command worked.

first of all, you must have your bootloader unlocked in order to boot/flash a custom recovery. you can't do so if your bootloader is locked. and secondly, yeah, I also had the boot command worked out before I had the 1.54 Hboot. I guess this one doesn't allow 'just' booting a custom recovery!

you need adb drivers, usb 2.0 port...uknown sources and usb debug must be enabled and you need to grant SU permissions when asked. After that you can enter CWM by pressing vol - button several times after you turn it on
I cannot get it on my phone, I've followed the instructions perfectly yet it won't flash in flash mode. Doesn't flash in fastboot like it suggests either. When I try to flash in fastboot it says I need to be rooted first. I am.

To install cwm you don't put phone-in flash mode.
You need phone switched on,connect phone to PC,run the bat file on PC,follow on screen prompts,grant root/su permission,reboot phone cwm installed.

[Q] Stock rooted with TWRP. Any way to OTA to 4.4.2 without losing data?

So far all the methods i've read require me to rsdlite or adb the factory fxz which I believe causes me to lose data.

As far as I can figure, the only way would to use an app to backup the data, flash back to factory, re-root and restore the data. The OTA update will remove root access. I would do a backup with CWM first if possible.

if you know what you actually changed with root permissions then you can just flash stock recovery onto the phone then remove all things root and put everything back to normal stock (like unfreezing things out of tibu or whatever) then take the ota. if you are not sure what you changed, you can flash recovery and system then take the ota (assuming you didn't flash new kernals or anything else major).
And if you just want to keep data then you can flash stock ota with rsdlite and remove the two entries that erase data and cache in the xml file. Then take the ota. or flash the fxz and remove the same data erasing entries in the xml
If you have an unlocked bootloader, just mfastboot stock recovery and stock system and take the OTA. You won't lose data. Then just reflash TWRP and root. Good to go.
If your bootloader is locked, then I have no idea.

I am on a vzw dev edition. I have rooted and have twrp installed. I changed the boot animation and installed xposed. If I undo those 2 things does some have a step by step process for getting back to stock and taking the ota and then re installing twrp and rooting. I would greatly appreciate it.

This is what I did.
1. Download 4.4 stock files from Motorola (you need to request access and they will email you the link)
2. Extract recovery.img and system.img from the stock image and place them in your platform tools folder ( or where fastboot and adb are located)
3. Update your SDK if it is out of date.
4. Download and put mfastboot in your platform tools folder (or where fastboot and adb are within your sdk directory)
5. Boot phone into fastboot mode
6. open a command prompt and change directory to your platform-tools folder and type the following (7 & 8)
7. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. mfastboot flash system system.img
9. Reboot
10. Accept and install OTA
11. Reboot into fastboot mode
12. Reflash TWRP and root phone.
13. Reboot
14. Open Xposed and reinstall framework
15. Reboot
You would be good to go at that point. You would still need to reinstall your logo as it would be reset
If you already unlocked your phone and didn't change anything, you shouldn't have much trouble with the commands

If you froze the OTA application, you need to unfreeze that first as you won't have root until after you take the OTA and then reinstall TWRP.
I have a VZW DE as well.
I'm not sure how the changed boot animation will affect the OTA.
Your safest bet is to just follow the process I wrote to ensure the OTA doesn't fail and create other problems. It really only takes like 5 minutes. It leaves your data intact, so you won't have to set it up again. It also leaves the Xposed app on your phone and you just need to open it and install it. All your modules will still be there and will work as they did before after a reboot.

I kept the old boot animation file so I can just move it back.

OK so then technically you can reinstall the old boot Ani, unfreeze all apps, disable xposed using the Xposed disabler zip that should be in your SD card root directory, and then flash stock recovery.
That should allow you to take the OTA as you would technically be stock at that point. I chose the other method to ensure I was 100% stock. This should get you to stock as well, but I guess I like to be certain.

You don't even need an unlocked bootloader, you can still flash stock images on a locked bootloader. Also the person obviously unlock the bootloader since TWRP is installed, unless I'm not aware of a way to install it without.

You are correct. You can only flash a custom recovery if your bootloader is unlocked. That is what unlocking your bootloader allows you to do - flash unsigned recovery files (i.e., custom recoveries) and obviously, TWRP is not signed by motorola. Then once you have a custom recovery, the custom recovery allows you to flash unsigned operating systems.
If your bootloader is locked, you cannot flash an unsigned recovery.

fastboot is fine to flash recovery but you need to be in bootloader mode to use fastboot. You need mfastboot to flash system since it is so large. But mfastboot will work to flash recovery, too.
adb doesn't work in bootloader mode and fastboot doesn't work when you are booted into system. So if adb is working for you, you aren't in bootloader mode (note: bootloader mode is also called fastboot mode since for fastboot to work, you need to be in bootloader mode).
Go back to step 5 - boot into bootloader mode. Just type adb reboot bootloader. That will put you in bootloader mode.

[LOLLIPOP 5.1][STOCK] Cherry Mobile One H940 Official Links

Here're the official links for Cherry Mobile One H940:
For fastboot flashable images:
Builds Available: LBY29G, LMY47O
Download: here
For OTAs:
Build: LBY29G -> LMY47O
Android Version: 5.1 (Beta) -> 5.1 Official
Download: here
Flashing Instructions:
A. Using ADB sideload (for recovery flashable update zips):
1.) Flash stock recovery.
2.) Boot to stock recovery.
3.) Perform up + power button to show menu.
4.) Select Apply update from ADB.
5.) Install ADB drivers if on Windows and not yet installed.
6.) Open cmd prompt.
7.) Change directory to where you downloaded the update zip.
8.) Issue cmd: adb sideload <update.zip filename>
9.) Wait until completed.
10.) Select reboot.
B. Using fastboot:
1.) Boot into bootloader.
2.) Flash image using fastboot flash <partition name> <image filename>.img command.
3.) Reboot using fastboot reboot command.
C. Using DD (for flashing images like system.img):
1.) Boot into custom recovery. (you could use fastboot boot custom-recovery.img so that you don't overwrite your existing one)
2.) Push image file to /sdcard using adb push command. (you might have to mount the sdcard partition before doing this)
3.) Open an ADB command shell.
4.) Go to /sdcard.
5.) Find the system partition by issuing a cat /proc/partitions command. It should be the one sized exactly 1GB (1,024,000 shown).
6.) Use dd if=/sdcard/<image filename>.img of=/dev/block/<name of partition> .
7.) Reboot either using custom recovery or just issuing an adb reboot after exiting from ADB command shell.
do you have another working file for LMY47O system.img? i'm getting a fastboot flash fail (chunk unkown) error. thanks

Go back to stock boot. Since you're rooted, I'm assuming your boot has been modified to be insecure.

Ok By going back to "stock boot," does this mean I have to re-lock the bootloader? I believe that I have only used the ALL-IN ONE TOOL in this thread to do the 3 things mentioned above, and also installed Lucky Patcher, Greenify, Busybox (Free) and Ad-Away in relation to root access, so I am not 100% sure by what you mean.

No you don't need to relock the bootloader. You just need to flash stock boot partition. This is usually replaced when rooting.

I'll have another go at it later today. Was able to flash my own backup using CWM

Still, it should be foolproof. I already checked and double-checked the system image I uploaded and it's mountable in Linux so it should restore correctly like the previous LBY image. I can't think of any other reason aside from some sort of protection that would disallow flashing of the system image through both fastboot and dd.
*On second thought, I'm reupping the image. I just flashed it using dd on my device and it works perfectly.
success, was running a windows 7 virtual machine in OSX. it must have been a protection, you are right...ran it using OSX instead (stupid me, why i didn't use it in the first place for fastboot).
files are good to go thanks man
Need help in Flashing the Stock Recovery.
Hi Guys,
I need help in flashing the stock recovery.
I've used the ALL-IN-ONE TOOL to unlock my phone's bootloader, flash the PhilZ Touch Customer recovery and Root my CM1
[http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro.../tool-master-tool-unlock-bootloader-t2997696]
However I'm unsuccessful flashing the stock recovery from the ALL-IN-ONE TOOL so I can update my phone's software to Android 5.1.1.
Can I flash the stock recovery using one of the files here? If yes, can someone please teach me how.
Thanks in advance!
OTG
Hi,
Just a quick question, after flashing using this ROM, will CM One support OTG? Or do I need to root the phone first? Is there a way to add support for OTG?
Pardon me if this may not be much related to the topic.
