I used this version of TWRP.
The MIUI stock recovery keeps overriding with TWRP. I have flashed it many times already, still doesn't work. I also tried booting to recovery manually (volume buttons) and NOT by entering the fastboot reboot command. Anyone can please help?
Solved: I flashed again for the 3rd time.

Hello,
i have huge problems booting into my recovery. The last time i remember it worked was before some FOTA update.
The phone is still rooted and the bootloader should be unlocked.
What i tried so far:
adb reboot recovery
fastboot reboot-recovery
Volume key combinations
several "reboot" appa
And to reflash the recovery:
several flashing apps
fastboot flash recovery
Any idea what could be the problem? If you need more informations, please tell me which you need!
//Edit: Found a solution: The installer on XZDual worked!
Hey Guys,
I just decided to install Twrp 3.0.2-2 and root my XT1092,
I have been facing issue right after flashing twrp, i select Recovery option in bootloader. Which just shuts down my phone.
After that i try to access recovery by booting into fastboot mode which again gives me a shutdown.
Later i discovered i could access stock recovery when my device is booted into the official mm rom. "adb reboot recovery"
Please help me guys. I tried fxz'ing and retrying the whole process. with different methods to no avail.
i even tried just rooting by only booting recovery "fastboot boot recovery.img" which again gives me a blank screen.
Any help would be really appreciated.

So you put the phone in bootloader mode:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-2-victara.img
Then you use only the volume rocker to select recovery (not the power button).
If the phone boots into stock Android, TWRP will be overwritten with stock recovery (which is useless), in which case you'll have to repeat the above.
same issue
on Verizon. Bootloader unlocked with code from Moto. Trying to use Windroid to finish up twrp install and root. I got a message in bootloader about mismatched partition size. tried ADB commands and said it installed. still won't work. no idea what to do next. was thinking of relocking and starting over but I would rather not. any suggestions? Thanks!
I have tried that as well. Used the volume rocker buttons to select recovery. I end up with a blank screen.
Tried fastboot flash recovery.img and I even tried mfastboot flash recovery as well.
Device just doesn't go to recovery after flashed through fastboot and selecting recovery.

Is your bootloader unlocked? Maybe you should try reflashing the full stock firmware, and trying again.

Thanks a lot mate,
I had gone back to stock again. Finished with the recovery process.
I have been using the power button to select the highlighted option :silly: my bad.
Thanks for stressing that out.
I have tried a number of times to install TWRP (unrooted) on my Nexus 6. I am following the instructions from here
https://twrp.me/devices/motorolanexus6.html
I am noting the warnings here
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
Once I issue the fastboot reboot command before the Nexus 6 shows anything on the display I press power and vol down and get into TWRP. It seems to what it's supposed to do (presumably patch the stock ROM) and then I reboot to Android.
But the next time I boot to recovery I end up with stock recovery again. I have tried this a number of times and while I can get TWRP installed it always reverts to stock recovery after the next restart.
Is there something else I have missed here in the instructions? They seem fairly clear.
Not that I think it matters but I am running 7.1.1 (flashed with the OTA image since I was not getting OTA updates)
Thanks
Instead of using the fastboot command to reboot to recovery after you have flashed TWRP do it manually. Been a while but I believe that should work.
Dont use the fastboot reboot command, use the volume keys to enter twrp recovery after flashing twrp in fastboot mode
Once you are in twrp swipe to allow changes and if needed change twrp settings, after that reboot into rom.

I have done that several times. This is the screen I see when TWRP is loading for the first time.
Not sure if those red messages are fatal or not
When I am in TWRP I can reboot to recovery and it gets back to TWRP but if I reboot to system and then try to enter TWRP on a reboot (holding power and volume up/down it boots into the Fastboot and when I choose Recovery mode I send up with stock recovery again.
Am running 7.1.1 myself and flashed the latest TWRP 3.1.1-0
Were did you download the twrp img from? I download mine from https://dl.twrp.me/shamu/ Once i downloaaded it i rename it to recovery.img
I use cmd on laptop andhook up the phone, then run adb reboot bootloader followed by fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, then i use the volume keys to get into twrp, swipe to allow changes and make changes to settings. Then reboot into rom.

That is pretty much what I have been doing. The only difference is, the first time I did this (before I realised it wasn't working), I rebooted from adb and I did see the swipe to allow changes. But since then if I boot from abd or boot from the bootloader, I don't see the TWRP option to swipe to allow changes anymore.
I wonder if it's because the data is encrypted (standard on a N6?)
I checked the box to not show the swipe to allow modification. I have never decrypted my phone and twrp sticks. So not sure why yours isnt sticking.

Well the first time I did it I saw that message about allow modification and I agreed. Never seen it again.
The point of installing TWRP was to install a custom ROM. I wonder if I load the ROM image into the phone first, install TWRP and get into the first time, which I can, then install the ROM would that work?

After using fastboot to flash TWRP, use the volume and power buttons​ to boot into TWRP, and allow modifications, then make a backup and reboot system. Go back to recovery and if all is well, then flash your ROM. Make sure you've got your TWRP issue fixed first though.
The same thing keeps happening to me. I can't seem to make twrp stick. I'd really appreciate some help.
Depending on what your doing, typically you have to manually boot into recovery after flashing twrp (from fastboot), don't use fastboot reboot xxxx. Use the power/volume key combo to reboot. Then accept either system modification or flash a systemless root solution. This will enable custom recovery to "stick". Otherwise, stock android will overwrite recovery on boot.
The TWRP thread has discussions about this. Starting at post 1044 should help.

Is your device encrypted before you flash TWRP?
Yes it is encrypted.
Anyway, I tried all the various methods and combinations but ended up going back to stock recovery. What worked was flashing SU after TWRP.
I'm running pure nexus now and enjoying it.
Hello, i have a Mi8 global version, unlocked and actually i'm on latest xiaomi.eu dev (9.1.24), but i have some problems with twrp and custom kernels.
I don't know why, but almost every recovery won't boot.
Actually i'm on TWRP 3.2.2-0711 (the only one that works) and managed to flash xiaomi.eu rom as written before.
But every other recovery on the forum won't boot, tried to flash and boot from cmd, only boot from cmd, flash with some tools, flash and with apps from playstore, restart from cmd with vol up, disconnect phone and use keys combination, but same result: only 3.2.2 works.
Every other recovery i try to flash does nothing, it just reboots normally without enter in twrp.
I have similar problem with custom kernel: only francoKernel_r4 boots fine. With every other miui compatible kernel i have bootloop.
I've tried to reflash fastboot rom with XiaomiFlash but still have same results.
Can anyone help me please? I have no more ideas what to do

No i did know. Just tried but both twrp don't work.
Btw i'll try to write in that thread too.
Thank you
Fastboot flash the recovery img, then fastboot boot the recovery img.
Then reflash recovery zip file from within twrp you just fastboot booted

Use TWRP 3.2.3-1208 version from OP in this link

As written on eu forum, the only recovery working is the 3.2.2.
Every other recovery, 1208 too give me:
Mi logo (unlocked) - black screen - Mi logo (unlocked) - system. But no recovery.
Tried to flash a custom rom different to xiaomi.eu but got bootloop, same with kernel flashable zips on xda. Only bootlooo...
I really don't know what to do anymore...
Yeah weird, I've literally guided a friend through the process just yesterday with that method.
Zero issues
I ran into issues installing twrp recovery. Tried reflashing it, but whenever I boot into recovery, it keeps saying could not do normal boot and then enters download mode. Can some please suggest a way to fix it?
