Alright. Short and simple.
I want to flash twrp recovery via zip file using hboot method. I am s-off. All files for twrp are in .img format. Is there a .zip flashable file available?

What`s wrong with flashing a .img file? Just flash in fastboot: fastboot flash recovery namerecovery.img.

Well, once you've made one, you can share it.

You can't flash recovery in recovery. I mean, think about that for a moment.

Well. Lets clear a few things here. Recovery zips for flashing on locked bootloaders are common. (sony xperia z).
As i said i am s-off. Means I can access files and can flash unsigned zips. However to flash recovery on a locked bootloader but with s-off i need to flash it from hboot fastload.
I cant do it from the adb shell sinc ei am not rooted. But what i can do is have the twrp zipped flash file. Rename it at "PN07IMG" and put it on the root of sd card. SO when i boot into bootloader the file is recignized, picked up and flashed creating partition. Since i am s-off Partiitons can be accessed.
Once i have done that, i can flash unsigned files from recovery as well via zip.
Now, If there is a twrp flshable zip file for those who want to flash via zip I would be thankful

Aha. I see what you mean now.
I did something like that with my One X, but I haven't seen anyone doing it with this phone, sorry.
there's no need to re-invent the wheel here. Unlock your bootloader with revone -u
flash your recovery.
rebootRUU mode would probably work, if you knew how to write the android-info.txt file, but nobody is going to do that because you can unlock the bootloader without any trouble.
It won't wipe your system if you do it with revone.
if you are interested in CWM... here is the link for you:

i forget to flash the lockeddualrecovery2.6.3-RELEASE.zip after flash romaur and i use lockeddualrecovery2.6.3-RELEASE.windows.zip to try to install recovery but it doesn't work. i found that recovery files can't be found int /system/bin
Flash it again with your pc. After installing with your pc your phone will boot to recovery then simply flash the zip again

I've searched and I cannot find a Sprint Stock Recovery zip to be flashed in TWRP recovery. The only one I have found is the .img that needs to be installed through fastboot. Anyone have a flashable one?

I am having problems understanding the procedure to flash the ROM.
I also want to ask ..are the steps same as flashing other JB or KK ROMs..
1)BOOT TO RECOVERY
2)MAKE A BACKUP
3)WIPE data,system,cache,dalvik cache
4)FLASH THE ROM's zip file
5)reboot to bootloader fastboot and flash boot.img in the ROM's zip file using the command ,"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
6)reboot system
will this work for the ROM menstioned above?
thanks for help......
Yes, normal flash procedure is the right way.

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to create a pre-rooted firmware using the PRFcreator.
In which case a FLASHABLE recovery is a must.
I could only find img format recoveries for Z5 compact at the moment.
Is there any way to convert the img recovery file into a flashable zip?
Does the "convert img to flashable .tar oden or something" thread help?
Thank you!
