Hello guys, I want to ask a question.
How to flash a recovery to the system without Odin?
Maybe the "dd if=/path/to/recovery.img of=/??" in the terminal is working. But I don't know which part of /dev/block contains recovery.
Regards,

HI to all I try to root mu n915k but nothing work, and my phone now not started stuck in the boot.
I try to flash K195S firmware via odin, but phone not flashed, odin send error(
i cant find firmware for my N915K in internet
If you have rooted N915K please do it for me and i try to restore my phone:
can do it in terminal emaulator app.
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/15540000.dwmmc0/by-name/BOOT of=/sdcard/boot.img
This will dump the boot partition onto their internal device storage (sdcard). The size should be 14MB.

Hi
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
You cannot flash zip files through fastboot. You need to download a twrp image and flash it individually with;
fastboot flash recovery <name of image>
Make sure the image file is in the same directory as your adb window.
Thanks
Hi I just need someone who knows what their talking about to answer this question
I have a VFD 501 (it says that in settings under about but in recovery it says it is a VFD 500) running official stock recovery and android 6.0 however I have unlocked the bootloader to help me get one step further on rooting my device annoyingly there is no root method or custom recovery for the device so I'm pretty much stumped but there is a fastboot command here
flash <partition> [ <filename> ] Write a file to a flash partition.
could this be used to write su and busybox to /system/bin I am cautious but willing to give it a try if someone can verify that it won't erase anything off my system partition
thx

I think that won't work.
But you can try to build a compatible TWRP for your device [DEV]How to compile TWRP touch recovery

so i have a mtk device in which i mistakenly flashed a wrong custom recovery using mobile uncle tools. now i have no working recovery in this device & device wont even factory reset as it tries to reboot into recovery mode then fails to boot into corrupted recovery & again reboots into operating system without doing any reset.
so im here to know if there is any way to recover my built-in recovery system or atleast factory reset my device without using any recovery. i have tried using adb but faced the following error:
PS C:\adb> adb devices
List of devices attached
0123456789ABCDEF device
PS C:\adb> adb root
adbd cannot run as root in production builds
PS C:\adb> adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ wipe data
Wiping /data

You need to obtain a copy of your stock recovery and then flash that copy of stock recovery onto your device. If you can find a copy of your stock firmware, you can try extracting a copy of stock recovery from the firmware and use that copy to flash the device.

I have searched a lot and found one copy of my stock firmware (still not 100% sure about the rom) and it contained recovery.bin file (but I need recovery.img) image file to flash with mobile uncle or flashify.
So I used SP flashtool to flash only the recovery file into my device. But it showed some error (PMT has changed of this rom) and failed the flash. After searching for solution, people were telling me to erase my full device including boot & bios with SP flash tool then flash the new copy of my downloaded stock firmware. But I can't take the risk of erasing my device and bricking it (as I already told I have doubts about the downloaded rom)

what if the downloaded rom is also corrupted like the custom recovery i tried to flash........ im trying to avoid this kind of risky steps. i have heard mobile uncle tools flashes custom recovery temporarily & the stock recovery is still there somewhere which can be found using root explorer. so i was asking is there any way i can extract that stock recovery from system files and use it OR just any other way to factory reset my device using adb/fastboot

I told you what you needed to do, now, you just need to accept it and do it.

Can anyone provide the stock firmware? I think fastboot dd can extract the rom zip.
