I'm assuming you are a windows machine. Do you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer?

should be fine. likely you have extensions hidden. Easy button is to to put your recovery.img in the platform-tools folder. Shfit-right click and open a command prompt window from that folder then type your fastboot command.
This is what it looks like

and you've opened a command promp FROM THAT FOLDER by hitting the shift key and right clicking at the same time, and selecting "open command window here"?
also do you get anything by typing fastboot devices when your phone is in fastboot mode?

How did you flash the ROM in the first place if you don't know how to flash the boot.img by fastboot? This all very basic stuff that you should know if you're going to modify your phone.

fastboot flash boot boot.img

I did it with bootloader command

There is no such thing as a bootloader command. It's either an adb command or a fastboot command, and in this case it's fastboot.

Great app but this isn't an official one.
The XDA thread has been closed and there's no update on Google Play for 2 months.
I don't know if jmz still has other projects... Flashify is also a great app to directly flash the img files without a PC.
I heard that
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
works pretty well...

It doesn't hurt to know all the options and procedures. Actually OP would have already known this if he hadn't used a toolkit to root in the first place
-1 for toolkits
But yes, options are:
Fastboot flash img
recovery install zip
Flashify flash img
Thanks to all for the help suggestions , but yeah I used a tool kit which means I don't know how to do it manually that's why I asked for the easiest way to update .

1. Download TWRP latest image which is 2.7.1.1 right now.
2. Place in same directory as fastboot

If you install fastboot correctly you don't need to put recovery in same directory.

He doesn't need to do that. Only people who didn't install fastboot correctly need to do that. He used the installer so the variables are present. He doesn't need to cd to the directory fastboot is in OR put anything he wants to flash in that directory.

Right.
The only thing I did was: in the folder where I had the .img I shift+right click and clicked open command line here, from here I just imputed the text on the cmd.
Did I needed to do that or is it not needed for me?

1. Change to TWRP
2. Boot into TWRP
3. Open a command window in your adb location and type 'adb shell'
4. Copy a ROM you wish to flash to the adb location and type 'adb push rom.zip /sdcard'
5. Once it completes, install ROM as normal from TWRP
6. Reboot once done
That should work

From Google directly. Either install the Android SDK or just the driver package
Hold the power button for 20 seconds. Or try holding it and them tap on the screen.
This happened to me and I freaked out really bad, but I got mines to wake back up.
