Long story short, got a brand new Dev Edition at work. Unlocked the bootloader from Moto. Downloaded all the latest TWRP img and SUperSU zip for rooting but TWRP never installs. Here is what the output from fastboot says:
Code:
C:\Users\***********\Downloads>mfastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-ghost.img
(bootloader) Variable not supported!
target max-download-size: 768MB
sending 'recovery' (9184 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.005s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.998s]
finished. total time: 2.006s
I then select to boot into recovery right from the bootloader menu and it just boots to the system. If I "adb reboot recovery" I get stock recovery and not TWRP. I undertsand the system is overwriting my TWRP but thats due to not booting into TWRP first after flashing so it can disable it.
I have read and read and read and found numerous people with no answers other that just keep flashing it. I have flash CWM/Older TWRPs/PHiLz multiple times with the same result.
Thoughts/help/anything? (yes i have tried different ports/cables/etc, same results)
slim
UPDATE:
So I got a little bit closer, flash the recovery and then unplugged from computer, selected to boot into recovery from fastboot menu but now it just boots to black.
WTF is going on. I've had easier times with Samsung and LG products.
Sounds like you're using the power button instead of volume up to select an option in the bootloader. Reflash the recovery then select boot into recovery using volume up.
Ahhh FFS. That's it. Forgot about that. Been a while.
Cheers!
I know you said using the right keys fixed it... But I'm just adding this tip in case others come across this thread...
We've also seen where some have had to reboot-bootloader and go into recovery IMMEDIATELY after flashing recovery or it wont stick. example:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
{then use the phone's on screen instructions to select recovery}
This has happened when flashing back to stock recovery too.
I've got a moto x '14 verizon XT1096. Tried to use fastboot to load twrp to eventually get to install Cm13. However, it threw this message:
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Dumbass me thought it would be a good idea to unplug the device and simply try again. Well, what a bad decision. The phone now flashes the "no command" robot on it's back. yes, flashes. i can get back to fastboot, but after this i'm not sure what to do.
Thanks in advance. I'm fairly new at this, be easy on me.
Try this. This is my mini guide I wrote in another thread.
Well, at first I tried to flash twrp through fastboot but the original recovery override the twrp recovery.
So, what I did, instead of flashing, I just temporary booted into twrp.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp.img (and not fastboot flash recovery twrp.img)
Then phone booted into twrp, I flash supersu 2.46.
Then I easily downloaded twrp manager from google play and installed twrp recovery to my xt1096.
Have fun

I flashed the Android Wear 2.0 OTA update and now the watch won't boot. I get the "Device Software Can't Be Checked For Corruption" error and it's telling me to go to g.com/ABH.
It won't go into recovery mode, but will go into fastboot mode. I grabbed the stock images from here, and flashed the stock boot, system, and recovery imgs, but the error persists.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze...stock-zenwatch-3-partition-dump-boot-t3535589
Am I screwed? Or is there something I could do to recover?
Thanks.
Did you unlock the bootloader?

Wait for about 10 seconds when the warning appears. The watch will continue it's boot after 10 secs.

I thought I had initially. I hadn't turned the watch on for a while, but decided to get it set up yesterday when I saw news of the 2.0 update hit. It originally had the first firmware on it and wouldn't update to 2.0 (adb would fail to find the watch).
So, I flashed MWF76 from the link in my earlier post. And that worked properly -- the watch booted normally, set up the apps, the right build number was showing, etc.
When that was done I tried to flash the 2.0 update again. And this time the watch was being recognized properly with adb. The flash procedure seemed to go without a hitch, but I got the g.co/ABH error on first boot.
And if you let the watch sit for 10 seconds, it only boots into Fastboot mode. You can't enter recovery. If you try to enter recovery with the vol-down+power button combo, you see recovery for a split second and then it goes right to fastboot.
At the moment it appears the bootloader is locked again.
Still experimenting. Hoping someone with more knowledge may be able to help.
Fastboot oem unlock reports that the bootloader is already unlocked.
Tried flashing all of the IMGs in MFW76 and these flash successfully:
boot
system
recovery
modem
asusfw
But when trying to flash these, the flash fails because it says the bootloader is locked. Trying fastboot oem unlock again reports the bootloader is unlocked, but still can not flash these...
devinfo
factory
misc
modemst1
modemst2
oem
splash
Tried fastboot flashing unlock_critical, and the watch shows part of a message, but I can't see if there's anything to do on...pressing the top or bottom buttons changes the color of the bg.

Thanks for the help -- tried this and still no luck.
Since I can't get into recovery mode and use adb to try reflashing 2.0, would it be possible to create a flashable .ZIP file from the 2.0 update that can be flashed from Fastboot mode?

That's the same file that's been shared repeatedly; it requires flashing in recovery mode using adb. If you try to flash this with fastboot, you get an error that says "update package xxx.zip has no andriod-info.txt"

Your right, this file is not fastboot compatible. (my error)
This is what I used and flashed when I upgraded to v2.0 Android Wear.
To flash this you need to use ADB SIDELOAD filename.zip.
OR if you can boot into twrp you can install it from there too.
Good luck, have a great day!

That's exactly what I had done initially and what ultimately bricked the watched. Can't boot into any recovery, unfortunately. Just boots directly to Fastboot mode.

I'd try to get the watch running 1.5 first via fastboot.
See my post in the other thread linked here, specifically my edits.
I did boot, recovery, then system, and did "fastboot format userdata" instead of "fastboot erase userdata"
I have the same issue. Zenwatch 3 just boots to Fastboot Mode after manual update to Android Wear 2.0 . I can`t enter recovery mode and try to reflash it.
Do you have any ideas, what should I do?

You need to flash stock kernel in fastboot before you can do anything else.
( FASTBOOT FLASH BOOT BOOT.IMG )
Here is the the link to the stock Android Wear 1.5 boot.img
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dudeyq9rjsrag2i/boot.img?dl=0
(The boot.img is the kernel)
If worse comes to worse, you need to flash full android wear stock 1.5 firmware to get your watch working.
Here are the full instructions how to go back to go back to stock android wear v1.5 firmware.
This link also contains the download link for the full android wear original stock v1.5 firmware:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenwatch-3/how-to/guide-how-to-revert-to-android-wear-1-5-t3635196

I have got the same issue as the topicstarter had. Flashing to the STOCK firmware doesn`t do anything. It stills shows Getting g.co/ABH Error on Boot and after 10 seconds it goes to Fastboot mode.

Your bootkoader is unlocked...
After using fastboot before reboot you need to lock the bootloadet by using.the command below.
FASTBOOT OEM LOCK
Then you can boot successfully ..
The error message you saw is normal if you have not locked your bootloader.
Good luck.. Have a great day.

Sorry but this doesn`t help.
My watches are booting only in Fastboot mode.
So i do next steps:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot format userdata
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot
After reboot, watches still boots straight in Fastboot mode.
Maybe I should flash something from AW 2.0 to repair the watch ?

You must have flashed the wrong boot.img (which is the kernel)
Make 100% sure that you are flashing the correct kernel and
don't issue the command "fastboot format userdata".
All you need is:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
then oem lock bootloader
What was the exact filename of the ziip file
which had the 3 IMG files in it?
Here is the link for the zip file which contains the correct IMG files in it:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tz9bg5fggpfn2q6/swift_partition_dump_part1_MWG68.zip?dl=1
unlock bootloader, flash the three img files, lock bootloader
and issue this fastboot command: " fastboot reboot "
Don't flash anything else and don't format anything...
Good luck, have a great day!

Hi all,
I'm trying to understand what did I do wrong.
I bought my device with an unlocked bootloader miui V8 (global rom).
I tried to flash TWRP recovey and MIUI PRO rom. I follow the steps that are mentioned here
and got soft brick - the device got stuck on the mi logo (with the unlock sign), even when I wait in patience the device just turned off.
- At the beginning I flashed the TWRP recovery by xuefer, boot into it and flashed the dm-verity disabler (as mentioned in the guide) and got error 1.
I reboot the device and it didn't boot.
- I boot to the recovery again and wipe the data - didn't boot.
Boot to recovery again and wipe to factory
-I flashed the MIUI PRO rom and the device still didn't boot.
I tired to flash the TWRP recovery by iscle - now the dm-verity disabler succeed but the device still didn't boot.
made the wiping steps as above again - and the device still got stuck at the mi logo.
At any step I manged to boot into the TWRP recovery and fastboot mode.
My lest option was to go back to the global stock rom using MiFlash
Now I'm on Global MIUI 9 with locked bootloadr
What did I do wrong?
I want to unlock the bootloader and to get back my control on my device.
Please advice
Thanks
Download the latest TWRP on this forum. Flash it. After, go to twrp, wipe data, cache, flash MIUI PRO rom, and after flash also flash the latest SuperSU zip. Then try again and see if it's gonna boot up.
how sure were you that the device had an unlocked bootloader when you purchased it? if it was brand new, certainly its bootloader is locked.
Do you have an open padlock when your phone is booting ?
Remember to boot to twrp just after flashing and before booting to the rom.
Thank you all for your answers!

I've checked the bootloader status in the Dev menu and with fastboot (fastboot oem device-info).
In addtion to all I had the open padlock sign when the turned on the device.

I had the open padlock sign.
Now unfortunately I flashed with MiFlash the global rom and my bootloader is locked.
I want to know the mistake I've done - so I don't fail with it again after I'll get the approval to open my bootloader.
Thanks
no mistake, they are three batches files in the rom zip. One of them is relocking the bootloader.
Flash_all with without erase data
Flash_all with wipe data
Flash_all with relock bootloader
I don't know miflash interface but you unfortunately choose the third choice. You need now to unlock your bootloader again (maybe by creating a new xiaomi account, not sure of this).

I'm sorry if you miss understood me, but I meant to the mistake I've made with the TWERP and rom flashing.
I can't figured out what I've did wrong.
Sorry if was not clear but the problem could be here :
Now unfortunately I flashed with MiFlash the global rom and my bootloader is locked.
II think you choose in Mi Flash tool an option to flash with re-lock the bootloader (don"t know how it's designed in the app because I flashed my phone manually, using one of the 3 batch files).
Hope it will help you.

Hi! As others have already told you,
What I would do is to completely format the phone with Mi Flash (download the latest global stable fastboot version from http://en.miui.com/a-234.html), then flash it to the phone using the Flash All option, then flash my recovery or the one from xuefer (the one you prefer, both work), if you are flashing miui pro I think there is no need to flash the dm-verity file, so just wipe system + data + cache and flash miuipro.zip
Thank you all for your replais !
I will try and update right after I'll get the bootloader unlock approval.
Meanwhile you all have a great day !
I'm so to ask such a newb question, but I'm all out of ideas.
I unlocked the bootloader on my Mi 9 - I have the Chinese version.
I enabled developer options and turned on USB Debugging.
I downloaded TWRP.
I verified that I could push commands to my phone by rebooting it - adb reboot bootloader
That worked just fine. The phone booted to bootloader.
Then I tried to flash TWRP.

I saw somewhere that for phones that are Oreo and later, to use "recovery_ramdisk" but that partition does not exist.
It's almost like there is no recovery that I can boot up. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong.

Try this dm-verity disabler
https://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
What I did is like this
Flash rom
Flash dm-verity disabler
Flash magisk
Done
BTW, I don't quite understand your problem
Your phone stuck in bootloader or TWRP?
For TWRP you can try that dm-verity disabler
Thanks, this saved my life. I had problems with
"FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device)"
After i flashed the last rom i used(Pixel Experince) with this dm-verity disable it workes now !!

Flash rom
Flash dm-verity disabler
Flash magisk
Done

I can't get TWRP to come up. I flash the image and then try to boot to recovery, but there is no recovery. When you try to get fastboot.

So...I figured it out. You are going to laugh at me.
That version of TWRP was garbage. I switched to another version and now I'm up and running.
Thanks to everyone who responded!
