TWRP 2.6 [stock on "swipe to unlock" in recovery]

I went to GooManager and downloaded the new version of TWRP. When I reboot to recovery my phone gets stuck on "swipe to unlock" and doesn't let me do anything but to restart my phone on fastboot. I can't flash any ROMs
Can someone please help me? Thanks in advanced. :crying:

I was using the previous version (2.5) just fine and just went to GooManager and I assume that GooManager will download the right for me.
I opened GooManager and click on Menu then Install OpenRecoveryScript and then I manually rebooted to recovery once the download finished. And that's when I get stuck on "swipe to unlock"
Filename was "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-m7wls.img"

well, thats the right one, i would suggest that you manually download the file and install using adb fastboot.

I direct downloaded the file from their site and fast boot flashed after verifying MD5. There is definitely a problem with he recovery

Thank you sir! I am new to this so I am learning as I go. I read that these are the steps to follow to do an ADB Fastboot. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks again for your help.
1) Download the above file. Save it to the root of your /sdcard directly (internal memory only) and rename it to "twrp.img"
2) Turn off your device. Turn on the device and keep holding volume down until a menu shows up. Select fastboot from the menu list.
3) Plug the device into your computer. Run the following command via the command line:
fastboot flash recovery "twrp.img"
Bless.

That sucks! So should I do try adb fastboot or go back to the previous version (2.5)?
What sucks is that without 2.6 working properly, I won't be able to flash any ROM with the new android version (4.2)

Did the ADB and still the same problem. Should I go back to previous version of TWRP?

Did you just recently update your firmware to the new base? The reason I ask is because after I did I used the the firmware with the bootloader and recovery included. I had reflashed TWRP 2.5. Well I noticed that the method of holding down volume key and and power button would not work for me at all whether I was in the os, bootloader or recovery. So I flashed the Rom I was on again and it fixed it. So I am wondering this is what is happening to you. Maybe just let the phone lose charge then plug it in reboot to the os then into bootloader and flash the 2.5 TWRP recovery. Only thing I can think of your not bricked

Given all the issues with 2.6 listed here, should I update from 2.5 to 2.6? Also, if TWRP says 2..5.0.0 at the top of the screen, how do I know this is the wls version?

look at the zip file you download (openrecovery twrp-2.5.0.0-m7wls.img) m7wls tells you its for sprint.or m7spr whatever
there is a new version 2.6.0.1 but i don't know if it still has bugs or not, i'd stay at 2.5.0.0

I do not have a separate file. I think my TWRP came as part of some bigger ( root, recovery, permissions) package. I would think it was the Sprint version, but I keep having slight problems - those system apps try reboot after install, but in my case they do not. I have to boot manually, and after each recovery reboot I get a "reboot error notification". Can this be related?

[Q] Stuck In Loop!

Hey guys, I need some major help!
I was trying to update my phone earlier today, when I flashed Android Revolution HD 40.3 something very bad happened!
For some reason the ROM did not install properly, and I can't get back into recovery. I was using TWRP and the loading screen comes up for it, but it never fully launches.
I can get into the bootloader, and I tried using the Toolkit under fastboot. It seems like my phone is detected, but when I try and flash anything it doesnt work. Ive flashed both TWRP and clockword. They seem to flash because it will show the loading screen of either one, but it never actually enters the recovery. What should I do?
My phone is S-ON, I am not sure if that is what caused the problem/is what is keeping this an issue.
Thanks for your help

Does the phone just reboot before it enters recovery? I would try manually flashing a custom recovery image. Here is a link to the exact image I used.

It's very straightforward once you have fast boot setup. Don't worry I've been in your situation myself!

My phone was S-ON at the time, I recently gained S-OFF. You should still be able to flash a new recovery with S-ON. S-OFF is usually only needed for flashing new radios or firmwares.

How did you flash the recovery? Like I've said, I tried flashing a new recovery via the Toolkit. They do seem to flash, but I cant access the recovery. I'm not sure if my bootloader was relocked or what, but it doesn't go past the intro screen for TWRP or Clockwork

It could be possible that the toolkit is installing an incorrect version maybe? Switch off your phone. Once off hold vol - and power the phone on. This should load up HBOOT and tell you the boot loader status.
This is how I flashed recovery. I entered fastboot and used the commands from that link to flash a new recovery image. Have you used fastboot commands before?

To be honest, I'm pretty new to the fastboot commands. I usually follow guides to root, and flashing ROMs is pretty straightforward.

If you have fastboot setup and working, just boot the phone into fastboot mode and use the commands in that link I gave you.
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Then simply highlight "recovery", tap the power button and the phone should load up clockwordmod recovery.
Easy

It doesn't make you sound incompetent at all! Yes its just the bundle, then the drivers should be installed with that too. If you're not 100% sure there are plenty of guides online on how to setup fastboot.

Hm, that's really strange. So recovery tried to boot, but the phone restarts and tried to boot normally?
Did you try running the command "fastboot erase cache" in fastboot mode?

[Q] got my nexus stuck in boot loop cant get to recovery

hi guys.
so i took the step of unlocking my boot loader today, i read up on it and watched a ton of videos, describing how to achieve this. once i was confident i followed a tutorial to the letter and have unlocked the boot loader. i followed all the terminal instructions and when i was finished i rebooted it. i had previously installed twrp and made all my backups. i left one on the phone and made a copy onto this computer.
Now however im stuck in a boot loop, between the Google animation and twrp. i cant access the recovery as this starts the boot-loop and now im unsure what to do. i can still do terminal instructions on the phone and i can get to the boot loader menu. but i don't know where to go from here. can any body give me some step by step advice ? any help would be appriecated thanks

you have to flash a recovery via fastboot, while your phone is in the bootloader. fastboit won't see your device unless its in the bootloader.

when you connect to fastboot in your recovery, type first fastboot devices, then it should list your device.

You may need to fastboot format userdata and if that doesn't work, fastboot format cache. There reason for this is if the formatting gets screwed on these 2 partitions, TWRP can't boot.

Question {Solved} Stuck on fastboot

Hey guys.
Yesterday, something weird happend.
I wanted to flash an update (kernel) so I powered off my phone and started it as usual to get into recovery. But the only thing it does, was to start up into fastboot mode.
I'm being able to boot the ROM with
"fastboot continue" when connected to th PC.
First, I thought the recovery was broken so I reflashed it. Nothing happend. Only fastboot mode.
Then reflashed magisk, in the hope it will solve my issue. Nothing.
So what could it be? A broken boot.img? How could it be fixed? Still annoying

Hi,
Are you able to boot into recovery using fastboot boot recovery.img?

yes. that did it. After that, I was being able to power on as usual but not being able to start recovery. not via TRWP or via Vol+Up + Power or even Advanced Reboot -> Recovery.

So, could a reinstallation of the ROM solve the issue?

Ugh... Sorry I'm a but confused
So you flashed the recovery, booted into recovery via fastboot, and you could move around in the TWRP. Is my understanding correct?
Well if you don't have any data, nothing hurts to reinstall the ROM I guess

I'm only able to boot into recovery via fastboot boot recovery.img as you mentioned (I guess it's loaded directly from my HD to the phone but doesn't stay there ). Booting into recovery via Vol-Up+Power doesn't work anymore...

Weird. Haven't encountered this in rn10pro. But something similar happened on my previous phone I remember and that time flashing recovery, booting into it, then restarting to recover had worked. You can give it a shot.
If not wait for a better answer or flash the ROM

I already did that but I'm not being able to start recovery (TWRP) with Vol-Up+Power. It always loads my device into fastboot mode..

Are you typing boot instead of flash?

maybe you should try a fastboot flash of the stock rom for your region. Be careful not to lock the bootloader again. And patient, it takes about 5 minutes...

Didn't work. Always starts in fastboot. Already tried to flash twrp via twrp but didn't helped.
So I tried to flash my ROM again and that did the trick .
Phone boots normally and I'm able to boot into recovery via advanced restart and Vol-Up+Power.
Thank you guys, for trying to solve the issue.
