I already have TWRP recovery installed on my Oneplus One. How do I update it? Do I just type fastboot flash recovery "xxxxx.img" and then fastboot erase cache? I believe I do not have to unlock my bootloader again since it is already unlocked, am I correct? I just want to update TWRP, not my ROM or anything else. Thanks in advance.

you do not have to unlock your bootloader again. you can use the fastboot method.
but there is also flashable zip you can flash in recovery to update TWRP (This method is easier in my opinion). you can get it from here
-->https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=19646
that link is from Temasek CM12.1 thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-cm11-temasek-build-t2870743
you can visit the thread for more info. be sure to take nandroid backup before flashing.

This method works without a PC.
1) Download the recovery image from TWRP website
2) Install Flashify from Play Store
3) Flash the recovery image through Flashify
And that's it and root access is definitely required.

All you need to do is flash the updated version the same way that you flashed when you first installed it, with fastboot. No you don't need to unlock the bootloader again unless you've previously locked it yourself.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery.img>

Okay, I tried putting a new rom on my at&t one xl, and it did something horribly wrong. I was able to get to recovery and it told me I had no operating system, the I tried flashing a new rom again. At this point it restarted the phone got stuck at the splash screen and now I cant even get to recovery just the fast boot and boot loader. Any help would greatly appreciated.

I had viper rom and I was going to cyanogen mod 10.1
and I thought I had a titanium backup but my whole sd card go deleted, so I mounted my sd card and got the rom again and flashed it and at that point I couldn't go back to recovery
Did you read the OP for cm10.1? It states in the requirements that you must RUU up to the latest (3.18) to run that ROM. In terms of your recovery, just flash it again from fastboot.

I must of completely overseen that. and sir the only option I have on my boot is fast boot, recovery, factory reset, clear storage, simlock, image crc, and power down. I don't know how to even flash things at this point.
and only options I fast boot are bootloader, reboot, reboot boot loader and powerdown
That's all you need to RUU, it's an exe file that you just run while your phone is connected in fastboot mode. You'll need top flash your recovery again, then you can flash a ROM.
Download the RUU
Run the RUU
Download recovery
Flash recovery
Flash ROM
The fastboot command to flash the recovery is:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery.img"
(The exact recovery filename, without the talking marks)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can enter recovery on your phone, mount usb storage, copy ROM to phone, flash ROM.

I would do it all just to make sure you are back to complete stock since you mentioned you rooted the device also.
Follow the instructions in the first post of this thread and since you plan to RMA the phone be sure to check the tamper flag and follow the steps outlined to reset it if necessary... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47156064

. If the tamper flag value is "true", then you'll have to reset it. The following steps will reset this flag, and lock your bootloader.
•So, first, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2239421 (Thanks @osm0sis for the wonderful script)
Under "Flashable Zips", you will find the Nexus BootUnlocker script. Download it.
•Put the zip on your internal storage.
•Download the latest TWRP recovery image for the Nexus 5 from here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hammerhead. Rename it to TWRP.img.
Now boot it. You do this by booting your phone in fastboot, and typing the following command:
Code:
fastboot boot path/to/TWRP.img
TWRP recovery should boot.
•Flash the zip in TWRP, then reboot.
Now your bootloader should be locked, and your tamper flag should show "false".
So i have to do this before i flash the stock recovery, since it needs TWRP, am i right?
And else it says that this will lock the bootloader, will i be able to execute the previous commands(flashing recovery and stuff) with a locked bootloader?

No, flash everything back to stock then deal with the tamper flag reset.
Once everything is back to stock but the bootloader is still unlocked, boot into the recovery...
fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img
Then flash the tamper flag script.

Sorry man but i'm not getting something here.
If i flash everything first, even the recovery will be stock, so i have to flash twrp once again to flash the tamper flag script. So i end up with twrp recovery and the tamper flag reset, while it should be stock recovery and tamper flag reset.
What i'm i missing here?
You can boot a custom recovery without flashing it. Like a temporary installation

Hey there guys. I have recently flashed CWM-touch-6.0.4.7-falcon.img im able to go into recovery when i flash it, on reboot i selected yes for the fix install stock recovery, when back to recovery and it has an android with an exclamation mark coming out of it with it saying 'no command' at the bottom. How do i fix this? Moto G 3G 1st gen
You can try:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
And then:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
After you flash the custom recovery boot into it right away and see if that works.

Also i tried flashing stock recovery but still no luck
An Android with an exclamation with 'no command' means you are on the stock recovery. Did you try the latest TWRP?

Oh right ok. No i haven't used TWRP, i don't really like it. I tried CWM touch but i haven't tried normal CWM yet
You can also try philz recovery. Not sure why it won't stick after you flash but be sure go into recovery right after you finish flashing otherwise it will overwrite back to stock I believe.

I always go straight into recovery after i flash it but when i reboot it goes back to stock recovery :/
What message do you get after flashing the recovery? Previously I got 'partition size mismatch' indicating I flashed a recovery different from stock. Philz & TWRP worked fine for me.

Then sorry I'm not sure about the reason. May be you downloaded a wrong recovery or that recovery doesn't work with your bootloader. Just search the thread you downloaded this from to find any solution. Or if you don't like the TWRP try Philz touch as it is CWM based.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2639583 .
Currently the only supported recovery for moto g is TWRP by h2o64.

I flashed philz recovery. Rebooted again and went into recovery and it worked, the recovery was still there
But one more thing on reboot of recovery it didn't ask if i wanted to fix root. Am i rooted already or not? :/
Are you on stock or a custom rom? Certain custom roms may have built in root access for everything else you will have to flash SuperSU.
Glad to see you got the recovery issue sorted. I'm with you I don't particularly like TWRP so I pretty much use Philz exclusively.
Hey, so I went to install Android 6.0 on my OPO, but there seemed to be some driver issue with the Wifi.
So I wanted to go back to my original OS, that I had backuped. I had the same Problems on this one too - as soon as I would enable WiFi, It would just crash and reboot after a few seconds.
Then I thought, perhaps with a updated Recovery it would work. So i tried to install a newer version of TWRP.
This is what happens:http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3627932&stc=1&d=1454171784

You have to flash the full image if you were rooted, OTA won't work.
Edit: Well you might be able to flash the stock kernel for the previous version and OTA.
to flash ota if rooted:
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img (current or previous it dont matter)
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img (current or previous it dont matter)
reboot recovery
adb sideload ota.zip (changes to new slot, i prefer slot a, i do it twice, but boot into bootloader before sideloading the second time)
to get root again:
fastboot boot twrp.img
once in twrp, install twrp if wanted, then newest supersu
reboot
note:
for elementalx kernel, i do the above (install twrp), and then after i reboot, i adb reboot recovery and install elementalx
for Sharkey kernel after i fastboot boot twrp i install (in order): sharkey kernel, twrp, supersu
for franco kernel (jan update not available yet), before booting twrp, i fastboot flash kernel first then fastboot boot twrp

Sorry for the inconvenience, as this new device came with 2 slots, I had to make sure not to brick the phone.

Can you help me with a little more detail on this? Wouldn't I already have it in both slots? Do I need to download a new recovery image?
I'm new to ADB and fastboot, but I found using the flash-all minus the -w in the script (and putting ./ in front of the commands in the script cuz I'm on a Mac) the easiest way to upgrade to the latest version. And it does all the flashing to the correct a and b partitions. Had to reinstall TWRP and root at the end and the whole process took 5 minutes.
OP, do you think that everyone can understand your screenshot??
