I tried to flash android 6.0.0 but something happened and it wouldn't let me access the operating system so i went ahead and wiped the OS with TWRP which i have done in the past so I thought I could work out what to do from there.
I ended up flashing android 6.0.0 but it didn't flash properly which caused TWRP to be removed. At the moment I can only access bootloader and Im not sure what to do to make my phone work again. I don't have an OS or TWRP.
Please help.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Should be just as easy as going into the bootloader, connecting your phone to your PC, and then re-flashing TWRP.
Example command from the PC:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/twrp.img
If I could get your device's make/model/carrier, I may be able to help further (device sounds like a Nexus 5 or 6, so above is based on such).
Hope this helps.

Hello,
First time writing on the forum so please tell me if I do something wrong
So problem is that I tried to flash the latest version of Paranoid Android on my Nexus 7 but I'm getting the error "Warning! No file-contexts" and the flashing gets stuck on the next phase which is "Patching system image unconditionally..."
My device is rooted and unlocked, and I use TWRP. Of course I wiped cache, dalvik, system and data before flashing the new ROM.
I thought that the problem was with the zip package, so I managed to download it again from my laptop and pushed the image with adb. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the same message.
I even tried to install another ROM (Chroma) but it didn't work either, still getting stuck at patching system image. At this moment I wiped the whole internal storage, which worked with my previous problem on my Nexus 5.
Issue's still there.
What should I do now? I can't boot because no OS is installed. Should I try flashing the stock Android version? Or will I get the same message? My tablet is bricked, only thing I can do is booting in recovery.
Thank you very much for your help!
Kind regards,
Sebastian

Hi.
A friend gave me his Moto G1 2013 to install Linage OS but I'm really having troubles with it, first of all it doesn't allow me to install TWRP, when I type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img it says that it installs but it doesn't, when I try to boot on it it just doesn't boot, the way I had access to TWRP was typing fastboot boot recovery.img...
When I got in I did the first step when you install a new Custom ROM that is wipe system, cache and dalvik cache, then I tried to install the ROM zip file but it gave me "error 7" I looked for solutions and I found one that is modifying updater-script file, I did it but it gave me another error about mount system, I looked for solutions too and I found one that is modifying file system format to anotherone and then bringing it back to the original format but still having the same error.
After that I decided to go back to stock ROM, I have flashed many times the stock ROM with fastboot commands but it just doesn't boot into the OS, when I try to boot the phone it boots into bootloader again... Any solution to this? Is it a hardware problem? Please help me I'm so embarrased with my friend.
Same thing happened to me!

Hi! I tried something similar with a similar result. I first unlocked my Moto G's bootloader. Then installed TWRP using fastboot. After that I tried flashing Resurrection Remix rom which failed. I've been stuck in a kind of bootloop since then. My handset powers up, finds something wrong, tries to go into recovery, fails and does this over and over again.
Since I am able to boot into bootloader mode, I tried to flash the stock rom by following instructions from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47820707#post47820707
I have tried different variations from many different forums (fora?) all with the same result. Still stuck in the bootloop-thingie.
Btw, I also tried the unbricking guide from this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/help/how-to-unbrick-moto-g-falcon-t3394788 without any success. My phone shows up as a Motorola ADB device and also as XT1033 in Device Manager when its plugged in.
Anyone know anything to help me out?

Hi, I found the solution time ago, sorry for answering to late, hope I can still be helpful.
Well, what I did is, I booted into TWRP, then I did a total format to the storage, after that I did something kind of crazy, I switched my storage format to anotherone and then I turned it back to how it was before (example: I was on fat32, I switched to exFAT and then I switched again to fat32) after doing that I tried to flash LinageOS and it allowed me, it booted and now my friend has Android Oreo on his Moto G1
Hope it works for you mate, those situations are very frustrating, good luck
Hello everyone!
I am new here and really looking forward for some answers. I own oneplus one and had a good experience with it. I had upgraded to custom rom that is lineage os 14.1
I wanted to upgrade it to 15.1 through Twrp. I followed the same procedure as i did for last flashing. I wiped the old data and everything and started to flash new rom. But this time twrp was giving an error. When I did research on that i found that i needed to upgrade to newer version of twrp to install lineage os 15.1
I did the same. And then end of it I just unselected the Supersu root and it reboots. Now when I go to the twrp recovery. The oneplus icon shows but then nothing happens. My phone now doesn't have a rom and twrp recovery won't open. When I connect it to my laptop through fastboot, cmd doesn't recognizes the device. I don't have any knowledge about tech and stuff. And I might have done something wrong. Please help me with some solutions
First of all, try to reinstall TWRP trough fastboot (boot in bootloader mode with Volume UP + power), just google a guide if you don't know how fastboot works. also be sure to use the correct twrp for bacon
After that you should be able to boot back in recovery and flash your rom
if still it doesn't work, follow this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/tool-oneplusrecovery-tool-v1-0-restore-t2991851
Sometimes it happens we brick our phones but No worries as long as you can go to fastboot you can always restore back to how it was before.
Either use the Program the guy above provided or this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
I want to know how to flash the twrp again through fastboot, because when I connect it, phone is not detected in cmd. It says no fastboot devices are there. But then I checked and it says some android thing is connected in device manager. I hope it is my Oneplus one. How to pass this step?
It's the android drivers. Make sure you have the drivers installed.
Thank you so much. I was able to download the twrp again and flashed the 14.1 lineage os. The latest twrp is not flashing in the phone i don't know why and because of that 15.1 lineage os is not flashing and shows error. But still it's a relief that my phone is working. Also, when i switch on the camera it's not working and the flashlight icon also is dim and doesn't gets clicked and not works.
Today I tried to finally update to the latest version of crDroid, but ended up having a bunch of issues doing so, and after a lot of troubleshooting and trying to fix it, I ended up putting it into a bootloop of some sort instead.
I'm pretty sure the last thing I tried was installing a different version of TWRP to see if that version would let me properly install the rom, and stop my phone from always rebooting into recovery mode.
Trying to turn it on normally or boot into TWRP leaves it hanging on the "Redmi" boot screen, it can boot into fastboot mode though.
I'm guessing that the only way to recover my phone at this point is to flash the Official MIUI rom back onto the phone, but that also involves wiping Data and losing pretty much everything I've put on the phone.
I was smart enough to make a TWRP of the Data folder, but while making the backup, the console said it doesn't include all personal files or something.
How much of my personal data and files can I rescue from the phone in this state, and how can I do that before it gets wiped when fixing it?
Also, I think I really need some help in actually restoring my phone and flashing the custom rom properly.
No matter how much effort I put into figuring out how to do this stuff, unexpected issues always seem to happen, and turns something that initially seemed so simple into multiple hours of troubleshooting.
The only way I think i've gotten rom flashing to work at all was by wiping everything and installing the official MIUI rom, but I don't want to be losing my data every month when an update comes out.
So, could someone please help me get my phone working again?
Edit: I ended up fixing my own issue by ADB flashing on a different release of TWRP, and then installing fcrypt disabler after the rom but before everything else.

Unfortunately, I can't.
Trying to boot into TWRP just gets stuck on the 'Redmi' boot logo.
I just remembered that you can install TWRP over ADB, and that Peter's one says it works even when the system partition is empty, so maybe the issue is the TWRP I installed and could possibly undo this part of the issue over ADB.
It won't fix the issue preventing my from updating my rom, but recovery only is still better than a soft brick.
Edit: That worked, i've put Peter's TWRP back on, and it's launching into recovery mode/TWRP again now
twrp not boot after successfully flash in this rom

In the end, I did try orangefox, and it might have been part of why it worked.
However, the crDroid installation instructions specifically mentions using Peter's TWRP, so I initially used that one.

Thank you for the effort you put into typing up a guide to help me, but I ended up fixing my own problem.
I was able to use fastboot to flash on a better TWRP release, and then get the rom to install properly by installing fcrypt-disabler just after it.

If you can access fastboot, then flash TWRP.... Enter recovery, wipe your system partitions and then flash the Stock MIUI ROM or use the MiFlash tool. Make sure you aren't flashing an older version of the ROM than the onle already installed.

I have the same problem that stated after installing the update for derpfest and I can boot into twrp. Any solution for me?
Hello I really need help!
Not quite sure I got myself into this mess but I can't boot into the system as there is no OS and there also isn't any recovery. Whenever I turn my phone on it goes into the bootloader (fastboot). I have tried to flash TWRP.img with flashboot but I am getting that the partition cannot be found (recovery_b).
What can I do? I have tried using the MSM tool but I also can't get the driver to install.
I believe I got here by wiping all of the data on TWRP (system ect... and also the factory reset)
Any suggestions/help would be appreciated!
Thank you.
So, there's no twrp, neither an OS. that's why it's stuck in bootloop.
You need to flash a custom rom(Lineage OS, I would suggest), but first you need to install twrp using PC.
Here's this post you can go through or you can also check this tutorial.
