you need to flash the recovery again via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
maybe try redownloading the recovery.img as well

Overwrite ext4 touch recovery with CMW?

Hi I recently put ext4 recovery on my sensation, but I just realised earlier backups don't seem to work on it.
Could anyone please help me out trying to reset it to CMW, because that way I can restore my backups without problems.
I tried to flash using fastboot, but when I enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
I get a message": "writing recovery blabla
writing recovery ... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished blabla"
When I check my sd card, I see the recovery.img on the root of it.
I reboot into recovery, and it's still 4ext
Please help me!
Thanks,
Sean
Download the PG518IMG.zip
multiupload[dot]com/ECVA5V4ED3
Place it on your SD card
Reboot to boot-loader (Power + Vol down)

Hi,
thanks for your answer, but your link isn't available, and I don't believe that doing this will overwrite ext4.
I tried it a few times before.

Sorry hadn't noticed that...
I've attached the file. You can also try
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Hi, thanks a lot, you really helped me...
It seems I was wrong, this did overwrite my existing recovery!

[Q] boot loop after twrp recovery flash

Hi, I tried to root and ended up with boot loop (HTC screen).
My steps:
-unlocked bootloader (OK)
-in cmd executed: fastboot flash recovery using TWRP 2.6.0.0.img (OK)
-and i couldn't boot twrp recovery in cmd: fastboot boot recovery ...img - error message FAILED remote:incomplete boot image
Any advice? Do I need to flash back to stock recovery? Where can I download it? The attached is my software version. I would like to start my mobile only. I don't care about root at this stage. thanks for your help.

Hi,
you should erase cache (fastboot erase cache). Then try to start recovery directly from phone cause Fastboot boot will only start an
boot Image not recovery.

You might have a corrupted download. Try verifiying the MD5 hashes and if they don't match re-download/flash it.

Tablet on Boot loop

Help pls i just installed CWM on my Tablet using this code
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then when i was about to test it i accidentally entered this code
fastboot flash boot recovery.img but i was supposed to enter fastboot boot recovery.img
now i can boot to CWM but everytime i boot it goes straight to CWM not to the system
so i tried flashing the boot-root.img using this code again fastboot flash boot boot-root.img (the boot-root.img was provide by superPichu before)
and now my tablet keeps on rebooting =( i can still enter fastboot and CWM any help pls?
What rom was originally on the tablet? You'll have to procure the boot image from that rom and flash it. That or just reinstall the entire rom ...either from fastboot or from cwm. Your data should be intact.

Bootloop to fastboot

Bootloop to fastboot after being on dp3, and restoring carbon. I tried fastboot boot twrp.img, but it fails....I also tried fastboot flash it, it does, but still reboots to fastboot. Any suggestions?
I assume you had TWRP installed when this condition occurred, and trying to boot TWRP just sent you to fastboot?
What was the exact error message when trying to fastboot boot TWRP?

It sends the file...then I get a remote error. I tried fastboot flash too. It completed, but still boots to fastboot. Guess msm tool is needed. This phone is a pita.
I cannot get twrp to boot.....Phone refuses to boot it. WTF???
Have you tried this specifically?
Code:
fastboot flash boot recoveryname.img
I was stuck in fastboot yesterday after doing a TWRP restore. The issue was I did a backup and restore including boot and system/vendor.

LOL...Um, yes.
Use the All-In-One Tool and flash a fastboot firmware zip (you can find downloads in the software itself). After flashing your back on OOS and can use fastboot to boot TWRP again, then install or restore your rom

Make sure you have the latest fastboot driver's installed.
Did this work?
Hi, did you find a resolve?
I have the latest drivers and nothing seams to work. Tried 5 windows 10 computers with the same result. No partition.
It has to be something with fastboot or the boot image. Well, I guess your phone could be toasted as well. What happens with "fastboot flash boot boot.img" if you use the stock image?

Any solution to this? Stock boot.img returns error: cannot load 'boot.img'
