I need help. I deleted/wiped in advanced mode in twrp the system and now I have No OS installed. I don't kow what to do now the phone does not bood except into twrp.
Use NOST
Sent from my NB1 using XDA Labs
After hours of "work" I have my phone running again. I was able to get the phone run stock recovery again and then was easy to just flash the oreo zip.
well good to know you solved the problem.
but just in case keep your phone bootloader critical unlocked so you can use NOST if you face such problems again.
Just happened again. I wanted to put twrp img back on the phone and as it reboots... its stuck on "Powered by Android". I cannot flash or do anything since its stuck and does not turn off. I tried all combinations of volume/power button and hold them for minutes... just does not turn off. So its not recognized by NOST or anything. Now I am really screwed as it seems...

I am at such condition too... how long battery lasts? I think it's possible to wait for the phone to fully discharge and then we may have access to recovery. right?

If you tried to "fastboot boot" the TWRP image: thats "normal", fastboot boot is broken on every firmware since august. You have to flash TWRP to your active boot partition to boot it. However, at least for me, when being stuck in that screen I can still use "fastboot reboot" or "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to get the phone back in a working state.
Also, if you try to flash TWRP to your active boot: Please don't flash the image from the official site, since that is unable to boot into the system normally. Use my recompiled generic TWRP boot image that you can flash, regardless of security patch version: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-8/development/twrp-data-decryption-android-9-t3911411
If you did not fastboot boot an image: Hold down volume up, volume down and power for multiple minutes until the phone turns off. Then hold volume down while connecting the phone to a computer through USB, and it will start into fastboot mode. Then just revert whatever you changed and reflash the stock image.

It turns out that there was Pie on my partition B and I was not aware of that. Booting into TWRP wasn't working, so I flashed it and then factory reset system. And it broke the phone.
Now I tried to boot the TWRP from slot B and rebooted partition A. Now the phone is up... Thanks
Where can I find the appropriate stock boot image for my partition B? and should I fastboot it with boot_b command or what?

Hello,
I tried to flash Slim ROM on my TMo HTC One and I accidentally soft-bricked it.
First, I unlocked the bootloader, put the zip folder in storage and then went straight for flashing a ROM.
Since then, I am stuck in a bootloop even when I try to run recovery - I flashed TWRP.
Can anoyone help?

yes, this is pretty simple:
You can boot into your bootloader by pressing the power button for a long time and if the display turns off, press the volume down button and hope you jump into your bootloader.. try this out until you manage to get into your bootloader. If this doesn't work, you should hold your phone below a bright light so the sensor recognizes it.. then play around with your power button and volume buttons and you should be able to boot into your bootloader. Then connect your phone to the PC and use this fastbootcommand after you navigated to fastboot on your phone:
Code:
fastboot erase chache
Now you should be able to boot into your recovery..
If it helped, hit the thanksbutton or ask other questions by quoting my post so I get notified and I can answer
If you managed to enter the recovery, say it, I write further instructions... Because if I write it now and the steps above didn't work... I wrote it for no reason and yeah... just say it

thank you for your quick response, unfortunately, after erasing cache before and I still got stuck in bootloop (didnt work this time either).
Entering Recovery... appears on top of a screen and nothing happens for a long time before the phone reboots itself

I would simply reflash recovery (maybe a different one) to make sure it's not the file you have

ok.. in that case we have to do some other stuff..
Download the TWRP recovery, it's know to work better than CWM at it's current state, you can download the file for your HTC One here:
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 (credits to: http://teamw.in/ thanks for your awesome work!)
Then when you are in the fastboot mode, use this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "C:\pathToYourRecovery\recoveryname.img"
Then boot into recovery... and if this doesn't work too, try this command:
Code:
fastboot boot "C:\pathToYourRecovery\recoveryname.img"
If you were able to get into the recovery, or if you were not able, pls answer
!! :good: It worked and I got successfully booted the recovery, I think I was flashing a wrong version of twrp before
Hi,
I'm very new to rooting and such and only followed guides a read forum posts to get to where I am now.
My phone is rooted with stock ROM and SU, the bootloader is unlocked but no S-OFF (don't think it's possible on the mini 2 yet anyway). The new OTA update last night installed when I got home and charged my phone, then the phone just shut off and every time I tried to boot it would go straight into TWRP without showing splash screen or bootloader (even when holding power and the volume down button). When it's in this state the touch screen doesn't work and the power button only locks the phone. Holding power + vol down in this state doesn't do anything.
I have to let the power drain completely to get the phone to boot back up but it immediately boots back into recovery and then I can use ADB to force the bootloader to appear, but when I flashed the stock recovery that I found in these boards, it messes up the screen and all it shows is static with some artifacts. I have to let the power drain again to get back into the bootloader, and from the bootloader I can get the android OS to boot but I'd like to fix this completely.
I guess I should also mention that even after flashing the stock recovery the phone will still boot back into TWRP after I let the power drain so I think that means that the stock recovery isn't taking?
The twrp problem you mentioned is known, hope it'll be fixed soon. Are you sure you typed the right command to flash stock recovery? Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img?
If you get stuck, the combination is power button and volume up, not volume down...

Unfortunately I was using the wrong ADB command, I was typing "fastboot boot recovery.img". This seems to have fixed the problem so far but I have yet to try rewriting TWRP back to the phone and I probably won't until theres a fix or unless I need to.
Thank you for your help.

I had the same problem. It happens when I reboot with my phone when charging.
You can reboot your phone by holding vol up+power button.
Hoping I can get some help with the same issue.
I sent my 6P back in for a warranty repaid so I'm using this phone (XT1095) for now. I'd like to put LineageOS on it and root with Magisk BUT I'm having a ridiculous time getting TWRP to flash.
I certainly know how to flash images via fastboot and have done it for years but this is seriously pissing me off lol.
I got the code from Moto and unlocked the bootloader. I tried a simple "fastboot flash recovery _____.img", I've tried "fastboot boot _____.img".
At first, I was booting back into the system first but now I've tried it both ways. Regardless of what I do, after flashing the recovery, it boots into the system. The ONLY I can get this thing into recovery is if I boot into the system and just use "adb reboot recovery" but it's obviously the stock recovery because the phone keeps overwriting TWRP upon boot.
Just so we're clear:
1. Reboot into bootloader
2. Confirm bootloader unlocked
3. Fastboot flash recovery _____.img
4. Volume button to boot into recovery
Result = Boots into system
1. Reboot into bootloader
2. Confirm bootloader unlocked
3. Fastboot flash recovery _____.img
4. Fastboot reboot bootloader
5. Bootloader reboots
6. Volume button to boot into recovery
Result = Boots into system
1. Fastboot boot _____.img
Result = Boots into system
If it helps at all, upon flashing recovery I get this message 100% of the time "mismatched partition size", similar to the case on this thread: https://goo.gl/6Nm9cu
By dumb luck I found where someone used the "fastboot boot ____.img" with a pretty old version and it worked just fine. I'll root and such with that and upgrade the recovery later.

For clarification of step 4. I think recovery is the second or third option in bootloader. You are hitting volume down twice and then volume up correct
Volume up selects.
The mismatched partition size doesn't matter everyone gets that error.

You know what, I am so used to newer devices like N6 and 6P that I completely overlooked that the Volume Up button was the selector instead of the power button. It was rebooting into the system EVERY TIME because I was hitting the power button. Recovery installed successfully and running LineageOS with Magisk with Android Pay and Direct TV Now working just fine.
Thanks for your help and I'll be sure to actually READ from now on :laugh::laugh:
Hi,
I was trying to install Linage OS 14 on my H9L and I got it installed fine. I then tried flashing TWRP with `fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img` I then did `fastboot reboot` and once back into Linage I rebooted into TWRP from the power menu. After this TWRP got stuck on the loading screen so I tried rebooting, the phone rebooted back into TWRP and got stuck again. I then tried getting into fastboot by plugging in the USB and holding the volume down, rebooted into TWRP still. I then managed to get out by holding the power button and the + and - volume buttons to get into eRecovery. I then tried to do reset by doing 'Install latest version over WiFi' which downloads then fails and now I can't boot up my phone and it just goes straight to eRecovery every time I boot it up. I can still get into fastboot and I've tried flashing recovery_ramdisk, ramdisk from both a system update zip and from a TWRP backup with also no luck. At this point I really just want to get back to stock.
If anyone can help I'd really really appreciate it and be forever grateful .
Thanks,
Jake

I also cannot flash TWRP anymore.
Power down phone, then plug a USB cable into PC then phone. Whilst plug Cale into phone press and hold volume up.
This should place you into Fastboot mode.
What does it say for FRP.
If it says that is locked that would be your issue of why you can not flash anything.

A small typo above from @hacktrix2006 , Vol Up will actually bring you to eRecovery.
Vol Down will bring you to fastboot mode.
@Sparkrite , nice catch that is what i ment. When i replied i was awake for at total of 1 minute so brain wasn't fully working right.
Moin,
My phone was one day suddenly unable to boot into system nor Recovery, but could still enter fastboot.
Took me a while to figure out that USB Hubs let flash attempts fail too. (you can watch the drama in my older posts)
Now i was able to flash System back into a workable state and it looks like that recovery is also successful flashed.
BUT...i can enter recovery only ONCE per Vol - and Power on Button.
i have NO OTHER WAY to enter Recovery at all. i have no reboot option in system (LOS 18.1).
In fastboot/adb command and after one succsesfull reboot per keys, it always stuck after the Sony logo into a black screen. i then have to restart it into system with Vol+ and Power (one vibration) or shut down with vol+ and power for 6 seconds (three vibration) to get it either into fastboot (Vol+ and USB connect) or system again. then i have to flash it again to get into TWRP once. i tryed the latest twrp version (3.7.0) and one older version (3.3.1) that had once worked until the phone broke.
Any idea what is going wrong here. i have already try to completly wipe everything from the phone and try to fix SEL Linux in twrp. nothing seems to work. Did i miss something?
/€: Now it is again in the full broken state. recovery nor System won't boot anymore and end in a black screen.
/€²: Found the Problem: my lilca zip was polluted with altered files i forgot about.
