Hi, picked up my Urbane 6C55 (build LCA44B) yesterday and today have oem unlocked and then did a fastboot flash recovery of twrp-2.8.7.0-bass.img; two issues:
1. Internal storage is showing as 0 in TWRP so can't do a backup;
2. More worrying is the watch only boots into TWRP now, even when doing reboot system!
I reflashed the stock recovery and thankfully after that long first boot I'm back into a usable watch, but would like to get TRWP installed and skin1980's custom kernel...
What am I doing wrong as I've followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/watch-urbane/development/everything-urbane-root-how-tos-files-t3243975?
When I did the fastboot oem unlock the device didn't reboot (as per above instructions), it wiped and stayed in bootloader - LOCK STATE shows unlocked , but SECURE BOOT is enabled, is that related (I haven't seen any reference to Secure Boot so not sure)??
I've answered my own question In case anyone else does the same as me the steps should have been:
1. fastboot oem unlock
2. REBOOT WATCH (as oem unlock doesn't reboot by itself)
3. adb reboot bootloader
4. fastboot flash recovery
5. reboot to bootloader and select recovery to boot into TWRP
6. do a backup and reboot into the OS as normal

Any help appreciated here, I have been searching the forums all morning, but haven't found the same issue as mine (lots of stuck at google ?'s but none from failed upgrade) last night I decided to take the plunge and update my N6 from build 6.0.1 (MOB31H, Oct 2016) to 7.0.0 (NBD90Z, Oct 2016)
I typically use the WugFresh NRT to upgrade via factory image. Last night I decided to give the OTA images a try.
Everything was going smoothly until I bumped my keyboard tray and my phone became disconnected while still flashing. It was almost done too.....it was at the point of flashing the system image and was interrupted at 83% and it failed install.
I then attempted to recover from this by flashing entire factory image for 7.0 but it doesn't seem to want to mount my device. I then tried to go back and flash 6.01 to device using the softbrick/bootloop function from the NRT toolkit. It seemed to partially work as the size of the word google on the screen changed during boot went smaller (so I assume the boot.img was able to flash?) but I am still stuck at the google logo with the unlock at the bottom. Bright side is device is bootloader unlocked.
If I try the recover from bootloop function on the NRT it seems to have trouble sending files to phone (goes through all the process just doesn't take it looks like it sending files but before each at beginning it doesn't seem to connect to device.
I can access bootloader, and recovery. In recovery I tried to wipe/cache (wipes but doesn't help), tried factory reset (wipes but still stuck at Google), tried to mount system through selecting via recovery and it fails.
Not sure which image I should try to flash now to recover 6.01 or 7.0 or if I can even recover from this? Any suggestions are appreciated.
When I first got my phone I did create a backup using the NRT but that was on I think 5.0 or 5.01 and I no longer have twrp installed, should I try putting twrp on it and restoring that back up? It was a long time ago and I am not sure if it will cause radio or boot img issues...since I have upgraded so far past without making another backup with a newer version.
I have read that some others with similar issues that were told to use the N beta to get a clean flash.....only issue is there is no longer a N beta for Nexus 6......it now only shows 7.01 for 6p, 5x, and pixel.
Should I try flashing twrp and a ROM? And after see if I can get to load that way then go back and flash stock image?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

This requires you unlock your bootloader. You will be installing a custom recovery. Root is not needed though.

Follow the steps carefully to avoid any bootloop or unbricking of phone.
1. First of all download full stock rom zip 4.0.1 .
2. Flash your phone in fastboot mode and connect through pc.
and type command fastboot oem lock.
3. Downlaod stock recovery image of nouguat 7.0 file and flash it in fastboot mode
fastboot flash recovery image,file.
4. Reboot phone in stock recovery and flash rom using adb sideload.
ALL the best ,..............
If facing any issue mention it
Hi
Have anyone faced this before? yesterday i updated the viper4android from magisk and when reboot i got stucked on bootloader warning, android wont boot. After few reboots and turn the phone off, it still the same. So i imagined doing a full wipe and clean install everything will make the device usable, BUT... it persist and now my device is somehow tethered. I cannot boot to android without fastboot commands or otherside i wil get stucked forever on bootload warning, some things i tried is flash magisk from 16.4 to 16.7, clean install rom, install only rom and gapps only, not flashing any external kernel.
crazy uh? now everytime i reboot or turn off the phone, i have to use fastboot to get into android, not aways I will have computer nearby to send:
fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
fastboot reboot
I can get to twrp recovery and fastboot, maybe there is a fastboot commands to "untether" my phone?
Model: xt1802
Current flashed rom: xtended x9
Current kernel: arsenic r4 (early mount)
Hello all.
Here is my problem
I successfully unlocked my bootloader and I flashed latest maunofrio twrp v35
In TWRP, I did a full wipe in TWRP and formatted data partition to remove encryption
But now, I can't boot again in twrp and I'm stucked in fastboot.
Vol UP + power does not boot in twrp but still in fastboot..
When I hit the command : fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, it says OK
But fastboot boot recovery.img no longer workos now, failed
( before wiping and formatting all it worked )
I don't know what to do now to access twrp..
Any help is very appreciated
Greetings
Try another recovery and if it failed try full flash latest stable rom
Well, I have been warning so many times that use any TWRP in MI9:
1. format data partition
2. reboot TWRP and then enter twrp. Make twrp mount data partition
3. wipe everything BUT please keep system partition only
4. reboot twrp and then enter twrp again
5. Now wipe system partition and then flash any rom you want
6. reboot
How to save your phone now ? Please try fastboot ROM and use miflash app to save your phone !

@Kris Chen I am in similar situation here... Can you please help?
First of all - which TWRP should we use for Mi9T? IS this one good? https://mifirm.net/model/davinci.ttt#other-twrp
After flashing recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0607-REDMI_K20-CN-wzsx150.img - fastboot boot twrp.img goes okay
And then after "fastboot boot twrp.img" the phone restarts and is just stuck on the "semitransparent" MI logo...
I can press Vol+- and power buttons and boot into Mi 3 recovery, wipe data, set up the phone again. And then it is all over again. I am new to this and probably making some basic mistake?
EDIT. I think the mistake was to trying to use a wrong TWRP...
Some questions here:
1. Is Redmi K20 CN the same as Mi9T?
If yes, that twrp is correct and the best one
2.After flashing twrp, can you enter twrp by general
method : power + volume up to enter twrp?
If yes, I think the problem is coming from your data
partition. Please format your data partition first and
then reboot to Twrp again. Then copy your rom in your
phone and then wipe cache/ dalvik cache/system. Next
to flash rom. Always Remeber not to reboot your
phone if you haven't flashed rom under twrp after
flashing system partition.

Download the fastboot rom (Google it )then flash it with miflashtool just make sure the archive of the ROM is "tgz"before you unzip it .

This is what I had to do both times this happened.
I have the same exact problem
I used the same TWRP and I also wiped system.
Did you fixed it already?

As i understand, you wiped system and then restarted? And now you can enter only fastboot?
When you wipe system you must flash a ROM without restart or after restart, only fastboot available. TWRP version has nothing to do with this.
Now you must use mi flash or adb and fastboot utility. Download fastboot version of ROM, then open archive and flash it using mi flash or flash_all.bat script. flash_all_lock.bat will also lock your bootloader and mi flash has that option too, so check twice what option you choose
After flashing ROM you can flash TWRP again and it will be available, because by flashing ROM you restored system
I had the same problem.
Try to flash vbmeta.img via fastboot (fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img) and then flash recovery then boot recovery.
Or try to flash boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img) then flash recovery.

I got you chief. Make sure you have adb and fastboot installed.
No you don't need Mi flash tool for this. All you need is a computer.
Go to fastboot mode, plug in your device and expand cepheus.tgz file you downloaded. Link below
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/
Now open the folder. You have the flash_all files in there. Any .bat file is for Windows only. Any .sh files are for Mac and Linux.
Make sure the device is recognized in fastboot via cmd or terminal
WINDOWS ONLY: Open Command prompt and drag flash_all.bat into the cmd window and press enter
MAC/LINUX: Open terminal and drag flash_all.sh into the terminal window and press enter.
This part requires some patience. Wait until everything is finished.
Reboot using power button and it should be back to normal.
Hello,
I deciden to install Android 10 Beta 3 then install a custom rom. I succesfully installed Android 10 Beta 3, and tried to install Magisk as told in here. After the patched boot.img step, my device stopped booting.
When I press Power+Volume Up or Down, it always goes to fastboot mode. I can't boot into recovery from fastboot, I can't boot TWRP from fastboot. I tried:
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
fastboot boot twrp.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
As shown in the image rebooting into recovery always failing. What can I do?
same problem here... were you able to fix it?
You might have to use the QFIL method to get your phone going again. Remember you MUST backup the EFS partition and anything associated with your phones imei and SN

Hey guy,
My phone was running the rom "UL-ASUS_X00QD-ASUS-AOSP-17.0615.2005.25-1.1.1-user.zip" (downloaded from Asus Web). I tried to install the TWRP ver 3.3.1 unofficial and my phone was stuck on the fastboot mode only.
After a lot of searching on how to fix the issue, I didn't change anything and almost gave up, until I've read this thread.
My Asus Zenfone 8 flip is STUCK in CSC FASTBOOT MODE PLZ HELP!, RAW FIRMWARE ANYONE???
These are what I did to get the phone into the recovery mode:
1. Extract the rom zip file that my phone was running on.
2. Copy the file boot.img to adb folder.
3. On PC, at adb folder enter CMD, connect the phone then type
fastboot -w
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot recovery
4. After that, my phone can be booted into the recovery mode.
Hope you can solve the same problem as me.
Bye bye ...
