[Q] Recovery Image - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh

Has anyone been able to recover the recovery image for the Droid Turbo? In my dreams, i supposed the nexus 6 recovery twrp would work once rooted. I was wrong, and now no longer have a recovery.

@wrecklesswun, here you go. --> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B15sKU9JEz4CbHRzVVZvRFdRUGM/view?usp=sharing
You can restore it by putting the file on the root of your sd card and using a root shell. And entering.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilestock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p36
OR
If youre lazy as long as you have adb installed you can download this extract it and click RunMe. It will restore stock recovery and then reboot you into recovery.

I thought the Turbo was still WP? Is the recovery writable?

Even if you did...what could you do with it (im sure the Maxx will be fine for it)?
Backups wouldn't be restored, nothing could be flashed, etc.

You can build TWRP for the Turbo and flash it all day. Wouldn't work though as it fails the signature checks from the boot loader. You need an unlocked boot loader for a custom recovery to work.

That's what I thought and was just confused why someone else said we could flash. *Shrug* is use my Turbo as a daily driver so I can't poke at it any like I did the DNA when we got that unlocked.

You must mean stock recovery ☺

@aviwdoowks, yes exactly. He needed to restore the stock recovery on his turbo. Even with WP on as long as you're root you can dd an image to any partition other than system. I simply packaged shell, su request and dd commands into an executable bat file that flashed stock recovery.

[RECOVERY - UNTESTED] ClockworkMod Touch for the occam (LG Nexus 4)

I just decided to cook up some clockworkmod recovery for the nexus 4. Build it using the stock kernel that came in the JOP40C factory image.
Here's the linky:
http://goo.im/devs/jellybellys/mako/recovery/cwm/cwm6-jellybellys-mako-bld2.img
Also, I don't have my nexus 4 yet to test on, so if you are lucky enough to have yours already, flash at your own risk. I would reccomend using "fastboot boot recovery.img" first to test. And if you screw up anyhow, here's the stock recovery: (I didn't make this one)

fastboot boot recovery.img to test it, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to install it.
I usually package recovery.img's as boot.imgs for testing that way you just reboot recovery to recovery - get it? Makes testing simple for the inevitable broken button mapping bad lun path and derpdy derps that are bound to happen
Anyone tested this yet?

Try mounting /system through the menu. See if that errors out.
Also, did you try making a nandroid and restoring? I'd do data only for starters, just to be safe.
no offense, but why does everyone wanna be the first every time a device comes out. wait til you get it, test it, then release it.. but thanks anyway
I think the problem is, that this Version is based on JB 4.1.2!
Now i wait until Koushik is finished with his work and CWM is ready for 4.2

when you flahed the recovery did you boot into android first. or did you boot right into recovery.
if i remember correct right after you flash the recovery you need to boot right into recovery. so i would.
boot back into bootloader mode and run the mfastboot command and then type adb reboot recovery and it should boot into recovery with no issues.
let me know if that helps

I assume you have unlocked your bootlader?
You can either go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...recovery-twrp-2-8-2-0-touch-recovery-t2979149 or download it directly at http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/275. Choose the fastboot method at the bottom of the twrp website.
Thanks for your reply. I wanted to install cm12 to get a taste of lollipop. But i installed the ota that was captured for the xt1068 without root or unlocking my my bl. Ill wait for a while before trying this out. Maybe until the devs make cm12 more stable for our devices.

That would be my recommendation too, at least cm12 related. But you definitely should install twrp so you can make a full nandroid-backup of your device. Never underestimate the usefulness of a backup. You make a backup of stock-recovery and install twrp with Flashify. So you can go back to stock recovery if a new ota arrives.

You can try the app Helium from playstore or you can make a backup with ADB,code would be:
adb backup -all -system
To restore the backup, connect your device via ADB and:
Code:
adb restore <filename.ab>

The path where your fastboot.exe resides
i seem to be doing something wrong over here.
I placed the openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-titan in the folder where fastboot.exe and adb.exe reside.
my phone was in fastboot mode then i opened a cmd window in the folder where fastboot.exe is and typed "fastboot flash recovery" and i dragged openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-titan into the cmd window and hit enter. I got
getvar : partition-type:recovery
getvar : max-download-size
download : 00978000
flash : recovery
Then i scroll to recovery and all i get it bootloader unlocked warning and a blank screen. wonder what im missing.
also got a problem.
i got twrp flashed, but i can not make a backup. after that disappointment i checked the app and it says "it seems we cant write to sd card properly …"
they want to patch this. but i am afraid that i can not get ota after that. is there a disadvantage ?
i always thought flashing recovery through fastboot would make the job... so why can i not do a backup.
either to internal nor sd card
edit sorry .. i found the QA

Our devices don't have a recovery partition to flash to.
Read the install instructions correctly:
https://twrp.me/motorola/motorolamotox4.html
You should use "fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-payton.img" instead.
Then, follow along:
This will temporarily boot TWRP on your device. If you are using a lockscreen pin/pattern/password and do not get prompted to enter your password, reboot to the bootloader and try again. Go to install and browse to the zip and install the zip. The zip will install TWRP to both boot slots. Installing TWRP at this time will remove root if you are currently rooted.

I think the right command is this:

No,
If you accidently flash TWRP to your device using fastboot instead of temporarily booting the image, you will need to download the latest firmware for your device and reflash the boot image.

I could be wrong but it seems like you are trying to flash TWRP to the recovery partition and there's no such thing on this phone. You have to temporarily boot TWRP and the keep following the instructions.
Is anybody able to backup / restore the phone with android one on encrypted file system??, im using the official twrp, but restoring backups just cause bootloops
is it necessary to unlock the bootloader before?
If you're asking if the bootloader needs to be unlocked to install magisk, absolutely!
Sorry for the dumb question but how do you unlock the bootloader on the Fi Android one Version?

If you are still haven't fixed this yet the issue is you need to fastboot boot the boot twrp image and then flash the flash image inside twrp. The guide on TWRP official will give you a guide on how to do this, the files required are also there.
