Guys please i own an infinix hot 2 x510 with the Android One Stock OS i wanted to know is there any way i can install a custom recovery without having to unlock the bootloader because all the tutorials i have seen so far for installing a custom recovery for andriod one the devices that were listed my device wasnt part plus my device has no stock recovery and theres no option to access fast boot mode also with my device how will i be able to check if the bootloader is locked or unlocked since there is no fast boot mode any help will be highly appreciated thanks
I have the same problem. What country is your location?
I haven't tried rooting yet with Kingroot and heard it doesn't work on 5.1.1. Even if it does, I haven't found any way to install a custom recovery.
This is a new phone, so hopefully in the next few weeks someone will figure out how to root it and install a custom recovery.
Am from Ghana originally my infinix hot 2 came with android 5.0 it wasn't the andriod one stock 5.1 OS even the stock OS it came with can be found here at xda infinix hot 2 forums. That rom had a recovery and fastboot mode but that recovery it had was so basic no option to flash zip or other functions that twrp, philz or cwm gives also that rom is available at the official infinix site along with the andriod one stock OS. I wasn't impressed with the OS on my phone so I flashed the andriod one version but to my surprise it has no recovery and no fastboot mode I tried the keys for entering into the recovery but it shows a black screen with no command written I tried flashing a micromax android one cwm recovery using flashify and nandriod manager both reported that the recovery installed sucessfully but when I reboot into recovery I get a no command message I tried easy philz and twrp installer same result both reported the recovery installed sucessfully but when you reboot into recovery still no command error even if I flash the non andriod one the one with the stock recovery it doesn't show no command when you reboot but it still displays the stock recovery. I have managed to root mine sucessfully with kingroot app it worked both the andriod one stock os and the other stock 5.0 OS which can be found here.
Kingroot worked on 5.1.1 the andriod one rom for infinix hot 2 is 5.1.1 the other stock lollipop rom is 5.0 and kingroot worked for both

Hello,
This is a really weird situation I have with my phone. Recently my phone got ran over and just had new whole front (Screen) replaced. Before the indecent I could flash ANY ROM, ANY RECOVERY!!
but since I've had my phone fixed I can't install certain custom ROMS or Recoverys? My phone will only allow TWRP 2.6.3.3 why won't it let me install any latest recovery?
My Handset:
- HTC One
- TWRP Recovery 2.6.3.3
- ROOTED
- S-OFF
It's really strange.
i have kind of a similar problem.
i gave my m7 to a vodafone store to get my display repaired. they sent the phone to HTC. When i got it back, the screen was fixed, but a stock rom was installed on it including stock recovery and a locked bootloader. I still had s-off though.
I reopened the Bootloader, but for some reason i was not able to install custom recoveries at all (well i only tried TWRP 2.7.xx and 2.8.xx as well as the latest cwm touch recovery). Cmd on my Windows Pc was telling me that it successfully installed the recovery but everytime i was booting into recovery it booted for some reason to system.
I then ran the prerooted Android 5.0 GPE RUU so i could at least get root acces. But still cannot install custom recoveries :/
seem's to be alot of this about at the moment, im not sure if HTC have somehow put a new block on things like they did with the s-off tools, unfortunatly, currently there is no fix.
Yeah, i've read about similar problems on the AndroidPit-forum and some other german forum.
This freaks me out
Can really use a step by step on how to recovery so I can flash custom ROM-in the absolute simplest terms humanly possible.Still learning and would be SO grateful-need someone to tell me in a way I can get (and I am not completely stupid)...I want to be able to put cyanogen (or whatever else is awesome) on my phone and the recovery is all I really need help with,,,I have 5.0 lollipop on an HTC one(m7)-STOCK ROM -NO custom Kernel-and cannot mod because I am stock-merely rooted with team win recovery method.
First do u have a custom recovery and second is your bootloader at least unlocked
That is what I am trying to do now is install custom recovery which I THINK I MAY have already done with flashify-just need to verify with someone that knows...used flashify to download TWRP 2.8.6.0 on my Sprint HTC one M7 -phone went into recovery mode ,taem win RP came up, I hit the reboot window ,another screen popped up with 4 windows( one was system and another said recovery-I hit system and phone rebooted) now flashify says"recent recovery images" and lists the newer TWRP version-back-up and restore also has restore recovery and restore kernel option because I backed up both...Did I do the right thing???Did I install a custom recovery...??????-Thankyou for your time anyone that can help me out...!!!
I'm setting up a RAZR i for a family member but cant seem to install latest OTA. It will boot to recovery fine and looks like its installing but half way through the sick android logo pops up and it reboots telling me the update failed.
I dont know if it has any significance but i unlocked the bootloader prior to trying the OTA update and also flashed TWRP recovery.
After realising the OTA required stock recovery i flashed a stock recovery image but i have no idea if this is version specific. I pulled the recovery file from LeBobo's recovery flasher tool.
The system version i'm running is 91.2.29001.XT890.Retail.en.GB does anyone have the required stock recovery i can use please?
EDIT : I got rid of the problem and managed to root my phone.
I'm having trouble rooting the K3 note flashed with VIBE UI 3.0. I'm using Lenovo K50a40, Indian Version and I flashed the Dev version of Vibe UI ROM (v 3.0 from hackerpower's signature) . The flashing went all fine. Then I tried to reroot the phone but I noticed that the recovery was the stock one. So I proceeded to reflash the recovery using fastboot but it showed that the file had been downloaded but could not be flashed to the recovery partition. I thought of using SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery. I flashed AthlonX's material TWRP recovery and it flashed okay. Then on rebooting the phone I find it remains stuck on the boot logo with Lenovo written on white backdrop. There's also text written in a small black strip on the bottom left which says "=>Tool DL Image Fail" . The phone stays on that screen for a minute or two and then goes out. Earlier I couldn't boot into the phone due to the above mentioned problem. Then I waited for the battery to drain and then powered the phone on normally (without pressing the button combination for recovery mode) and the phone booted up just fine but the recovery was the stock one .
From all this, there's one thing I've concluded- that this phone has some kind of defense mechanism that protects against installing a custom recovery. This occurred even when I tried rooting on Stock 2.5 VIBE UI. That time I overcame the problem by flashing recovery using fastboot and then booting directly into the recovery instead of system. Now, however, fastboot isn't able to flash the recovery (the transfer of the image is successful but the flashing fails) .
Finally, I request anyone who can help me in any way to Root the phone or to get a recovery installed to please reply.
Thanks.
how were you able to root it

If the recovery goes back to stock then you should probably try to boot into the recovery before rebooting to system after SP Flash Tool has done it's job.
Hi so I down loaded one more time the recovery thru sp tool
But this time I took the battery out for few seconds instead of rebooting right away
And it worked
Once I rooted back the phone I tried flashing the gapps but it didn't work
I tried changing the permission s thru root explorer for the google base app as I so on a post and nothing
Any ideas
Hey!I have a serious problem with my phone and I really need some help
My phone was running Android 8.1 (Custom ROM) before someone cracked the screen of my phone.After that i leave the phone to a service for repair.All good since i take it back.After i went to home i do a factory reset and guess what...bootloop.I tried to flash other ROM ( I was using TWRP 3.2) but smae results...I tried to flash other version of TWRP ,but when i typed in adb fastboot boot (recovery image name).iso the phone still remains in FASTBOOT and nothing happened.
Finally I saw that an older version of TWRP was workig (cofface TWRP recovery) and i flashed the original ROM (MIUI) wich was working
Now I want to know what they did to my phone.Why i can't flash any other recovery or Custom ROMs...What can I do?
