I rooted my ville c2 and installed twrp. And after that i downloaded OTA 4.1.1 and clicked the install button. But it ended up in twrp. And i can't even flash the ota.zip through twrp and fastboot. It always said error. status 7... So somebody show me a way and if you have stock recovery.img, share it please.

you need the stock recovery for installing OTAs,
flash the stock recovery and install the OTA (you dont need to relock your bootloader)
after installing the OTA you can flash your custom recovery back again.
It could be that you will loose your root after installing the OTA so you have to root your phone again.
I dont have any experience with root-keeper etc. so I cant tell you anything about it.
you will find the stock recovery for the One S C2 here:

Hi... im currently running
CROMi-X v5.2.2, which is based on rom 10.6.1.27.5 with twrp 2.5.0.0 and my bootloader says is the one that came with us10.6.1.15.3-20130416...
To install omni kitkat, im been asked to have the latest bootloader, to avoid screwing up im planning on insalling the latest stock from asus...
However, each time i install a stock through twrp or cwr, the new image not only updates the bootloader and deletes all my data, but rewrites my recovery, for which then i have too reupload using fastboot to upload the recovery...
Is there any way to make sure i dont loose the recovery after flashing a stock firmware... or a way to flash the recovery from the recovery before rebooting after flashing the stock?
Thanks everyone!

Flashing the stock ROM reverts the tablet back to stock, so the recovery must go. Luckily, the bootloader you are on is compatible with the KitKat recovery (10.6.1.15.3) so you shouldnt have to flash the stock ROM at all. If you were on 10.6.1.8, you would have had to upgrade.

Asked the same question about my bootloader at the omni thread to be sure, if they say that it works too, will go ahead and give it a try
Flashed Lollipop. Then flashed custom recovery TWRP 2.8.1.0 which asked to install supersu. Now I can't get rid of it. From looking online my only options are to add root then full unroot or reflash the stock image.. Any way around this?
Y not have root?

Get your stock HAM7 firmware, unzip the archive and extract the UPDATE.APP file with huawei update extractor (you can search this on this forum) and flash the stock recovery manually via bootloader.
Take this

Hey guys, yesterday I rooted my phone using KingRoot and XZRecovery to flash Super SU and now I want to flash back the stock recovery again because I want install future system updates without problems.
How can I flash it again? (I have my bootloader locked)

There is no accessible stock recovery on Xperia phones, the actual recovery partition will still be there. Dual recovery is installed on the system partition.
If your bootloader is locked you will be able to OTA, but you will lose root. The best thing to do is flash a pre-rooted flashable zip in the dual recovery you have. As soon as there is an update you can make a new pre-rooted flashable zip using PRFCreator.
Gents,
funny question.
I just installed by Odin the very last firmware (COI1) with custom image from here, and
looks like it is locked and now I stuck with the stock ROM...
No chance to put back TWRP...
Before everything was fine.
I tried bootloader from this post, no luck.
Any advice how to get TWRP back or just how to revert to custom image?..
You could just flash TWRP via odin by downloading a flashable zip and to install custom software you'll have to install TWRP or any other custom recovery first. After installing twrp go to install and flash the rom from there. Reply and will help you further!
That's the exact problem: after Odin I still don't have TWRP...
