Updating TWRP. Please help. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way I could update TWRP to the latest version using only the bootloader or adb and fastboot?
My phone doesn't have any software installed.
Is installing another recovery, then installing the latest version of twrp a good option? I was wondering if I could do that instead.

[Q] Error installing CyanogenMod TWRP 2.6.3.3

Hello guys, i'm trying to install the latest stable version of CyanogenMod from CM's website (cm-10.2.0-m7ul) for my HTC One International version.
I've rooted it using TWRP latest version (2.6.3.3). I also have S-OFF active. The problem is, after i'm entering Recovery Mode and Wipe Data, when i want to install the .zip file i get this error (see the picture below).

2.6.3.4 is out, give it a try: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul
So do you think that my TWRP version is the problem, and updating to the latest version will solve this issue ? If so, could you tell me how to update to the latest version ?

download from above link, don't use a download manager on that site, and check MD5 sum, then
in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-m7ul.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY and try to flash again, if problem persists could be a bad download.
I've done your steps. I've installed the custom ROM aftter that. Works great. Thanks !

Updating SuperSU Binary -- Losing Root Privelages

Same exact issue as described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2366663
Except I downloaded the latest version of SuperSU (1.86 I believe) and when I went to flash it in TWRP I got a "Failed" message, so it did not fix my issue like it did in that thread. I'm running TWRP 3.6.0.0 and Android Revolution 31.6, on a Sprint HTC One. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Try flashing CWM recovery instead of TWRP. SuperSU should be able to correctly update the binary using CWM recovery. That worked for me, at least.

The correct version of TWRP for your Sprint phone is 2.6.3.0
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7wls.img

Sorry I had a brain fart, that is the versions of TWRP that I'm using. And I fixed the issue by reflashing using Superuser, but now am having issues with Sense 5 Toolbox and Xposed in general. I think I'm just gonna have to switch ROMs.

[Q] Cannot install TWRP anything higher than ver 2.7.0.0

I managed to get TWRP 2.7.0.0 using AutoRec. I'm trying to get it upgraded to version 2.8.x.x but can't do it manually using adb or with TWRP manager, or any other methods.
I'm trying to install CM11 and it fails every time, from what I've read, I need a higher version of TWRP to achieve this without getting the error executing update binary in zip msg.
Anyone else running into this problem?
Verizon LG G2
VS98026A baseband
4.4.2 stock rom
EDIT: One thing I noticed, the only versions that show up as compatible using an app like TWRP Manager are the one's labeled with g2vzw
Example - The techerrata downloads for twrp
All the downloads that work are the g2vzw downloads. All the new downloads labeled vs980.zip won't work. I've tried renaming and still have the same problem.

Since you've probably lost your custom recovery upgrading to 5.0.1, you can grab the TWRP images for Nexus 5 here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hammerhead
I believe you need to use 2.8.1.0 since 2.8.2.0 either doesn't work or is causing problems for many users.

Isn't CF-Auto root adding files from the 5.0 release over the 5.0.1 ? Isn't it safer to wait for a 5.0.1 autoroot?

How did you update from a rooted (with CF-Auto Root) 5.0 to 5.0.1 you just received the OTA and installed it without any problems ?
I like to know because i am on 5.0 stock just rooted with CF_Auto root.
So no more need for CF-Auto?
Just flashing SuperSU zip with TWRP is enough?
I flashed a Custom Rom Using TWRP which doesn't have any root permission...

Yes... Just Flashing with TWRP Is Enough!
Guys, i installed the 5.0.1 update by fastboot flashing system, boot and radio. I lost my custom recovery tho (CWR). I now tried to install TWRP, but after flashing the recovery image, the recovery still hasnt changed. Could i just flash CRW or should i use TWRP for this version?

This. I flash with it here since 4.4.4 and it did everything just fine. Not only it is an app to automatically root, but it gives very good hints, and provides lots of others features like installing Apks, getting a adb prompt, and so much more. Greatest third party Android app I have tried. Highly recommended, didn't even had to wait they update it for 5.0.1, as soon I got the 5.0.1 OTA notification, Nexus Root Toolkit was already ready for it.

This is lollipop security, custom recover wouldn't stick, after each reboot it will replaced with stock one, of course there is a way to make it sticky just search the forum.

That's always been enough. You can use Cf's auto root if you don't want to use a custom recovery.

Initial root requires using CFAR. You can update using TWRP afterwards.

[Q] Rooting my Nexus 6 "from scratch." few questions...

Hey, I recently got a Nexus 6, and instead of installing CM as I usually do, I'm going to try rooting and using Xposed. The trick is that I use Linux exclusively, so I can't use the one-click installers. It's a Nexus, so unlocking is a piece of cake, and I know how to use adb and fastboot to install a custom recovery.
From there, I'm not totally sure what to do. I downloaded the SuperSU zip from chainfire, which I'll install from twrp... Then... Do I need to install busybox or something? I guess I'll have to side load xposed after that?
Also, not sure what the update path will be after that. I guess rooting will break OTA... So what do I do?
Sorry for being such a newb! Thanks!
to root..
fastboot oem unlock to unlock the bootloader
fastboot flash twrp recovery
flash the latest supersu zip within your new recovery
then just reboot, and you have root.
to update, you can flash any updated stock rooted rom, or you can update via fastboot.
@ninjaaron,
Go to the Xposed thread, there's a lot of info > http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/official-xposed-lollipop-t3030118

Thanks for the concise explanation! Can I install a rom from the vendor with fastboot, or will I have to use mod'ed Roms after rooting?

Depends what you mean by vendor. Only Google release official ROMs and yes they can be flashed via fast boot.
Yes, I was referring to Google when I said " the vendor"

Yep. Just needed to clarify because on other android devices, carriers can be vendors
