TWRP Recovery issue
Good day, I have an LG G3 D850 rooted on 5.0.1 OTA with stock recovery from unjustified dev root. I flashed twrp from the instructions here with flashify and later tried with rashr, I Also tried to install it through cmd adb on my pc. When I try to reboot to recovery (from rashr/flashify, and even manually) I get a boot certification error and then I guess a boot loop. The screen goes black and the led flashes red and blue. I have to take the battery out to restart. I must be doing something wrong. Any ideas?

Did you resolve this issue? If so, how'd you do it. I'm having the same one.
No, But I believe they have a fix here where you would have to flash a kit kat bootloader. From what I read this, method works. I just feel more comfortable waiting for it to be done with all lollipop coding.

Hi. I get error code 7 at "Creating symlink". Then the phone tells me to reboot and when I do so, I get the sony logo and after a while it bootloops. (the sony logo) I rolled back to generic .17. Is there a fix for this? (I have C2015, bootloader unlocked, rooted, cwm recovery)

So after using Philz since I got my M8, I decided to switch to TWRP since obviously Philz isn't being developed any longer. I had zero problem flashing this through fastboot and have had no problems with it since doing so. But if I tried to flash it any other way using TWRP managher, or Flashify, or Nandroid Manager, it would work, but then it said it couldn't mount /system and the phone said there was no OS installed. Something wonky with the partition. Flashing back to Philz through fastboot solved this and I could reboot into my phone normally. And then flashing TWRP through fastboot instead worked fine. Weird.
I do not trust apps for flashing a recovery. Period. Any app.
And Flashify, TWRP Manager seem to be especially wonky on the M8....
Cant download
Just want clarify something. For some reason every time i download twrp recovery from their site, it always stops at 99%, and when i download it using my device it will finish downloading but it will have a different md5. Can someone enlighten me why that always happen?

With the new download server, this should no longer be an issue. Just make sure you navigate to the TWRP page and access the Primary Download link from there.
I flashed the new twrp 3.0 I keep getting failure to mount reserve. Any fix for this.

Wow! That's what I get for reading while at work. Thanks for not blowing up. Haha
G900PVPU2BOD3 added Factory Reset Protection
Bootloaders are locked to BOD3 after upgrading, meaning all the BOA6 stock images are now unusable. I've been stuck using the MOAR rom since the update came out and can't go back to stock, along with a ton of other people. Now I guess we wait for someone to post a BOD3 stock image.
Many aplogies for my ignorance but I am running out of ideas. I wanted to try out Cyanogenmod 12.1 so I flashed philztouch recovery using ODIN and installed the latest CM 12.1 zip from official cyanogenmod download. I did take a backup prior to flashing CM however now I am unable to restore from the backup, it says it is not valid (!!!???).
Can someone please tell me how to get the my sprint GS5 back to completely stock; I don't need root anymore or custom recovery or any of that, I just want it back to how it was when I opened the box. I have all my pics/messages backed up so I am not afraid to wipe it completely. If someone can point me to a file to download and flash in ODIN or whatever needs to be done I will do it. If you need any information from my phone I will gladly provide it.
Please help, thanks!

You will need one of the full factory tars available from the development thread.
And I've read somewhere that you may need to wipe internal storage coming from CM so backup what you want to save.
Just a warning, if you flash anything newer than OA6, you will not be able to flash back to older firmwares.

Both of you need to provide more details and both of you probably have a driver issue...
The "key driver not found" is totally normal. Every Asus tablet has it and it has absolutely nothing to do with not being able to flash a recovery.
nvflash tool
Hello
Is it possible to extend for NVFLASH this tool ?
A simple tool to make the Tablet Unbrickable would be great
Or does anyone have a step by step instructions ?
My tablet is rooted and unlocked with the bootloader 10.6.1.14.10 .

Questions
Hello
Thank you for this information, I 've known this manual and have some unanswered questions.
I have the bootloader 10.6.1.14.10
I can leave this out or do I have to downgrade it? ( 10.6.1.14.4 is not available from Asus !)
If it works with the current bootloader , I have modified the boot loader 10.6.1.14.4 apparently after NVFLASH . right?
It must remain on the device or can I switch to the latest after NVFLASH again?
Newer Roms require 10.6.1.14.10 !?
Sorry for my english, I 'm from Germany .
Thanks for the help.

The Flatline tool will replace your bootloader with the hacked version of 10.6.1.14.4. After successfully pulling your blobs you can flash another bootloader.

Wipes
There is no need to do any wipe before flash?
Anyone know if this will break my ROOT?

It will break root, but if you have an unlocked bootloader, you can easily reinstall cwm,philz, or twrp (if you have to) and reinstall the latest supersu.zip. Also redownload or restore the supersu app.
Then, you'll have root again.

Tried it update from lollipop 5.0.1
I have the OTA update before this one, and i unlocked boot loader and root the device. IT has a custom recovery.img flashed to install the root.
When i try to install this update, it pops into the update then immediately back to the recovery saying "invalid argument."
I assume its because the device has a custom recovery.img partition. My guess to fix this problem is put back the original recovery image?
Question is, how can i do this without wiping the device? Or if its necessary... how?
Thanks

You can't use the OTA that comes directly ota from Nvidia's servers because you've altered the recovery and system positions. It well fail.
Instead flash the "full" ota. The links to the full OTA are everywhere on xda since the release. The file is about 725mb . If link to one but I'm using tapatalk right now.
Remember that you have to flash supersu afterward to retain root.
Also, depending on your recovery, you may have to flash that as well.

Another user, on another thread, said that if you are rooted, flashing the original recovery wont work because the Shield is modified (rooted)
With the custom recovery, you need to flash a full 2.2 ota (is around here somewhere) and wipe cache & dalvik; then flash supersu and your custom recovery*
*Optional: some said they needed to flash the custom rec, some said they didn't flash it and kept their cust. recovery. Personally I'd flash it again.
