It says I need Root Access. I need to install superuser but I can't cause my USB isn't working.

go to your market and just download super user and after that download fom manager for free and once you open the first thing you see will be the flash recovery option which comes with the latest recovery. but you do need to be rooted in order to have custom recovery

I don't know of a way to root or flash a custom recovery without USB. Have you tried using a different USB cable? Maybe the cable you're using has gone bad as far as transmitting data.
Another way I just thought of is if someone can package up an update to the stock 2.3.3 ROM with root/superuser as update.zip that you can just download, place it the root of the sdcard, and use the stock recovery to update.

The second option you listed sounds like as good as an idea as i'm going to get. If someone can package a stock ics rom for me with root/superuser i'll be greatly appreciated

if you have oem unlocked , then it is all possible , otherwise ... it can't be done

I have my OEM unlocked

[Q] CWM recovery no option atrix 4g

Hi everyone,
Sorry to ask this question but I'm really in need of help here, I have been reading and trying for the whole week how to install a custom ROM but unfortunately I'm having a hard time, I have an Atrix 4g motorola mobile from AT&T I have rooted and unlocked the bootloader, I have installed the adb also, then I'm trying to install CWM for Atrix 4g but I'm not successful, it looks succesful when I flashboot the device it even showed me "Flashing storemgr 505" then I typed flashboot reboot, hoping I will be able to use Rom manager then when I try to install Greyblur ROM from http://briefmobile.com/greyblur-rom-for-motorola-atrix-4g using the ROM manager(install from SD card), it will reboot and go the the android(exclamation point) logo, without the option of CWM recovery, it has only 4 options which is the default one
wipe data/cache
wipe cache partition
reboot
apply update from sdcard
I don't know what to do now, If I choose the update from sdcard it is saying error "cant open /cache/recovery command".
By the way I have downloaded the file from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541 so i don't think the file is the problem.
Thanks in advance.
I would recommend returning to stock firmware(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072) and watching this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHWRdnekvl8
I originally had a lot of trouble too when I got my atrix but that video goes step by step.
What your doing wrong is trying to flash through Rom Manager. You need to reboot into recover via Tenfars CWM app, then flash from sdcard. Do not use Rom Manager it is not ready for the Atrix yet. Use Tenfars and you should have no prob.
Thanks guys appreciate that, I'll try that out and let you know.
Hi guys, I went to flash back again to 1.26 now I was able to install application from non-market apps, and phone is rooted but the issue now is my wifi, since it is restricted here in our country I have followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1077329
Before when I was using the 1.86 I dont have any issue following the link above, but now it is not working.
Thanks in advance.

how did you root? If you use Gladroot you can run the "afterupdate" to retain root after updating to 1.86.

Hi,
I forgot the name of the tool if I'm not mistaken it is gingerbreak, I run it on my android phone then, it gave me the superuser.
The phone came with the 1.86 I did not update it, but since It is not working from my country I have to root to install the link above, which is to replace my wifi drivers. Then after replacing I was able to connect from the wireless here.
Now I used the method to flash to 1.26 and rooting using the Gladroot, then using the method on the link above to fix the wifi drivers, I'm not able to connect to my wifi. I don't know what I did wrong here, any help would be appreciated thanks.

Make sure you are not plugged into your pc when you boot to recovery! - if that doesn't solve it ..
Does the phone boot to the existing Rom, do you have Rom manager installed? - if so update the recovery from Rom Manager. I found that after rooting the One S using the toolkit I could not get in to recovery, the update from Rom Manager sorted it!
All the best :good:

Had same issue with the tool kit, the cwm didnt stick. The Touch work one did stick and I was able to get into recovery. However I downloaded the app ROM MANAGER and flashed the recovery from there. Since then I've had no issues booting into reocvery or bootloader. Just download rom manager and go about it that way!

Which recoveries have you tried, and what version of phone do you have (S3 or S4). These must match.
Make sure you bootloader unlocked OK, check in bootloader screen, should say Unlocked.
The problem youre describing sound like when you try to boot after successfully flashing a ROM but forgot to or the kernel failed to flash with it. Only happens when ROM and kernel are mismatched enough that it wont boot, fex flashing CM9 and still on HTC original kernel. Try flashing the kernel from the ROM zip file with
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You can also try booting a recovery without installing it,
Code:
fastboot boot nameofrecoveryfile.img

If you have working ADB and fastboot working (there is a sticky by user fibsib that explains this) you can make sure your phone isnt really just trying to boot the OS and failing rather than trying to enter recovery with the command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
But anyways figure out which version you have before doing anything more, flash the wrong stuff and you could break stuff. There are good info here as to how to see if you have the Ville=Z520e=S4 processor model or the Ville C2/Z560e/S3 processor model.
Then download a recovery for your phone model and install it with this command from your computer
Code:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryyoudownloaded.img
Should work.
have you actually flashed a recovery yet?
which one and how did you do it?
Make sure you have your phone updated to the latest software version before you root. Download system update OTA and click update.
Otherwise you will have issues.
I am rooted T-Mobile phone with original software 1.54 and still can not do recovery or update, it is probably me but it is difficult.
If you are in the US, make sure you use the US version in the development section after you upgrade your phone. Update then try to root it might be easier.

How to upgrade to new latest Asus firmware through custom recovery

Check the device firmware type by going to Setting - about tablet - built number
Download the right firmware pack for your device.
http://www.asus.com/Tablet/Transformer_Pad/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_Infinity_TF700T/#download
Now extract the zip file and you will have another zip file.
Rename that zip file as "EP201_768_SDUPDATE" and place it to an external sd card if you do not have a custom recovery. If you are rooted and unlocked plus you have a custom recovery you don't need to rename it you can place it in internal sd is well.
Now turn off your device. Hold power button including the volume down button and enter custom recovery. For stock recovery it should detect it automatically and will install. once in custom recovery clear your cache and install the file with the name above or whatever name you have. once installation is complete. reboot the system be patient and you have the latest update.
You can obtain root easily using this method.
Just download the DebugfsRoot_Generic_v2.3.zip file from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1706588
extract the content and run RootDebugfs, then follow the on screen instruction and you will have root.
Make sure you have USB debugging on.
To get custom recovery. Download goomanager from playstore and you can install TWRP recovery from the option list. which is Option - install OpenRecoveryScript.
I am not responsible if you mess up your device. do these at your own risk. Nonetheless these steps work perfectly for me.

Wrong, flashing an official rom will make you loose the custom recover too, you will have a clean stock rom once you do that. AND also this thread has nothing to share with the development forum.

Where in there? Can;t find it?
1) If I am on a custom ROM can I flash the new update or I have to go back to STOCK first?
2) What's the big deal with loosing CWR and Root, it takes like 2 min to put it back, I mean there is another way to not loose it?
Thanks
I also have a question! Will this allow for OTA updates even if our bootloader is unlocked? And will we be able to flash the JB update from ASUS manually if not? Anyone know?

No. when you unlocked it clearly stated no more ota updates for you.
Yes. of course you can flash manually just like any other rom.

You don't need to have stock rom. As long as you have the stock kernel your ok. You will of course lose custom recovery but its easy to download again as i have mentioned in my first post.
There is a lengthy way to do this. But why do that when it takes you literally 2 minute to root it with DebugfsRoot .
Hope it went well for you.

[5.0] Nexus 5 Refuses To Flash OTA or Different ROM's

Hello,
So I just discovered this while trying to flash the 5.0.1 OTA from 5.0. I'm rooted on LRX21O via the Nexus Root Toolkit 1.9.9 (which is what I've always used in the past with no issues).
1 Tried flashing the OTA via Google notification push. It reboot, and no changes occur.
2 Fine - I try to use the Root Toolkit again. Boots into bootloader, appears to flash the radio and other necessary components. Reboots - no changes occur.
3 I then tried to just download the 5.0.1 package and flash everything manually via adb. Everything appears to go smoothly, and upon bootup Android updates all of its apps - still nothing. I appear to be completely stuck on LRX21O without any way to reflash stock or OTA's.
Anyone have any clue why this is occurring or have heard of such an issue before?
Thanks all.
Just flash factory images. With fastboot/flash-all script.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
You flash these in fastboot not adb
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Did you not understand? I did flash in boot loader USING adb on my computer. All that bat script does is just automate the flashing of each image for you (system, radio, etc) so this is not helpful. I know how to flash, but flashing seems to have no effect despite successfully flashing via manually installing or just using the script

You use fastboot in bootloader, not adb.
I'm not the one asking for help. Anyways, carry on.
Your device's /system partition is tampered (you say you rooted it) and thus the OTA fails. Flash the 5.0 factory image (LRX21O) WITHOUT rooting/flashing kernels/whatever and then use the OTA zip to do adb sideload in the stock recovery to update to 5.0.1 LRX22C.
Manually use fastboot commands to flash system.img and boot.img of the full 5.0.1 factory image (not script). post the output please
I'm not the one asking for help. Anyways, carry on.

Sorry about that - didn't mean to come across snippy
It worked this time with fastboot. For future reference can this be done the same way with the OTA update zip instead of reflashing the entire image?

Would you mind explaining this? I've used sideload in cwm and twrp before but I'm unsure of how to operate anything within stock recovery. adb won't even connect while in recovery. I would like to just remain on unrooted stock until xposed eventually get's developed for ART and flash zips that way.

Sideloading in the stock recovery works much the same as in a custom recovery. Boot into the stock recovery and there is an option to sideload. Then on your pc in a command window you type adb sideload update.zip. or whatever the file name is that you're trying to sideload. Obviously, if you can't get adb to recognize your device that's a problem. But that's a separate driver issue.

How can this be possible though without a custom recovery with the sideload feature? Stock recovery is essentially unusable as it just displays a picture of a dead android on a black screen.
Perhaps we're on different pages, or am I just confused still?
sideloading an OTA update from stock recovery
Hello, to make it work you will need to use the Google USB drivers you downloaded when you go into stock recovery then press the power button and volume up once then you will see a menu option with the "install update from adb option select this and plug in your phone to the computer. After this is done you will need to go to device manager and install the USB drivers from the Google USB drivers you downloaded. at this point after that is done you then go into the folder that has ADB installed and use adb sideload filename.zip
at this point your phone will accept the ota update package and you wont lose any data, I hope this helps..

Well you can't. The limitation of the stock recovery is you can only flash files signed by Google. That's why you need a custom recovery to flash most files

If you're trying to flash the update.zip to 5.0.1 you need to do that in the stock recovery. It will not work in twrp or cwm. I'm not sure what you're trying to do right now

my apologies.
so originally i wanted to just flash the OTA. ended up performing a fresh install and un-rooted. but there's a few unsigned zips i like to have installed.
So I think I'm going to re-root, flash twrp, install my zips, and leave it at that. i'll just flash stock recovery whenever I need the OTA which should be quick now that I know what to do.
hope that sounds correct. thanks for all the help!

[Resolved] Installed TWRP on phone with a locked bootloader - now stuck in boot loop

I am new to rooting, and decided to root my Galaxy Note II SGH-i317m a few days ago. I used a method with no adb access...i think. Here's the reference thread, just in case I'm wrong: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1980644
I got a bit overenthusiastic, and got TWRP while forgetting to unlock my bootloader first. Now, my phone will only boot into TWRP. All 4 reboot options go back to TWRP. What is the best way to get my phone back to working? I understand that I may have to lose my data. It doesn't matter: my top priority is getting my phone to work again.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place. I'm new here.

Thanks for the quick reply. I just tried that, and no change. Just to clarify, the only thing I can boot into at the moment is recovery mode.
I think what I need to do is flash the stock recovery back onto my phone. Is this a possible solution? If so, how should I go about doing it? I currently cannot access download mode.
i think u should install your current rom again if u insall stock recovery you may not able to do this with stock recovery even cant get twrp back

Well, the thing is, my problem isn't with the ROM at all. It's that TWRP does not work with a locked bootloader. So the way I see it, either I need to replace TWRP with something that works with a locked bootloader, or unlock the bootloader. In your opinion, how would replacing the ROM help with my problem?

It's done. It's worth noting that my root method, linked in the OP, doesn't give adb access. I'm not sure if this changes anything.
Also, I discovered that by removing and replacing the battery, my phone can power off. From here I can access download mode. Something that might be useful, especially if the solution involves odin.

tried system restore with twrp?
try it first and if ur not sure that it will work just make backup of boot , efs , system and data(if necessary) via twrp to sd card copy the backup to pc via card reader or something and extract the system backup there should be a file named build.prop in system folder edit it and do it like this :
under #additional build properties
ro.adb.secure=0
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=1
ro.debuggable=1
persist.sys.root_access=1
find the above lines and edit the parameters as i have shown to you use notepad++ to edit the file save it the last line will give ya root access by default and second last will make it debuggable just save it repack and flash with twrp cheers
hit thanks
Alright. Since I can't find another thread like this one, I will assume that I am one of the first to have this problem. Here is what I did.
I used samsung-firmware.org to find the latest firmware for my phone, which includes both ROM and recovery. Other brands probably also have a website like this.
I used Odin to flash the firmware onto my phone - this wiped my data, but removed TWRP, which is an acceptable solution to me. I might also have wiped my data while playing around with TWRP trying to fix my phone - I'm not sure.
Thanks to both EMONESSboy and [email protected] for their help. I ended up going with something similar to EMONESSboy's solution, since the commands seemed a little risky. Thanks anyways, your help is much appreciated!

If your situation is the same as mine was, I would recommend the same solution. Just to clarify - you rooted your phone? And then you installed a custom recovery, which is now the only thing you can access?
If so, you should install your stock ROM the same way you installed the rooted ROM. I'm not sure how you would go about doing that, or even if you can access that mode, since your model is not very common.

Actually, what happend was that i tried to root my phone through Kingaroot. It shows some error at 90%. After few seconds my phone gets rebooted and snce then, it is showing Mfr LOGO only.
I have tried Factory reset, wipe cache partition etc.
I had lollipop earlier on my phone.
