Hi guys, I flashed the latest factory image, then flashed the latest TWRP but can access it 1 out of 10 tries.. What am I doing wrong? Is it a faulty replacement phone? Never had this issue with my other nexus 5 (same recovery file but lollipop and not marshmallow) and now I have this problem.. Tried to riflashato the factory image 5 times, boot to recovery without installing but nothing changed.. Thanks in advance!
If you just just flashed TWRP, then booted into Android, then reboot into recovery.. Android will overwrite TWRP with the stock recovery.

This is not really a fix, since to use Flashify one needs to be rooted already.
What I did to work around this was reflash LMY48M. After reflashing that, fastboot correctly boots/flashes twrp.
I've read that the issue arises when trying to boot and/or flash twrp with MRA56K installed, AND the device is connected to USB.
Ok, i got some of problems here, i tryied to root my Nexus 5 with other Android 6 version, it was the first one launched after development version. Now i have MRA58K version.
Problem 1 : I have no stock recovery, i first rooted original version of Marshmallow with CWM and i soft bricked, so no backup, no factory images. Installed MRA58K and there is no stock recovery, thanks god i can use bootloader. I can install TWRP, but i want to install the old recovery, Tell me how to do it.
Problem 2: Actual version of Marshmallow ask me to install a patch, but when installing i got stuck in TWRP, it cant install it (yes, android was rooted, but i installed twrp before root, and the update were before it.)
Thanks.
You can flash a stock ROM using the flash-all file in a command prompt. This will install stock ROM with stock recovery. Make sure the phone has an unlocked bootloader and you should be fine.
Official OTA updates cannot be installed with a custom recovery.
I tryied 3 times to install OS with flash-all. All the problems start after i installed CWM and try to root the phone, but after that, i used a stock rom image that was different build than actually one.
I`m not sure yet who`s fault is.
Any ideas?
I don't recommend using CWM, only TWRP.
After you flash TWRP always boot into it, and since you're flashing a custom recovery I'm going to assume you don't care about OTA's, swipe to allow system to be mounted. TWRP will automatically patch the system to survive android trying to overwrite it. Reboot into TWRP a second time to be safe. TWRP should stick from now on until you flash over it or restore stock system partition.
Yes, now i have TWRP as recovery, but i want to replace it with stock recovery.
Problem is, when i upload stock recovery and try to boot in recovery mode, i got the green dead android with red triangle.
But after TWRP uploading and booting in recovery mode, TWRP is there..
I really don`t know what`s wrong.
Flash stock recovery, select recovery from the fastboot menu, hold the power button and press volume up button.
Hello! I've been running the CM13 nightly from Dec 26.
Today i downloaded the Dec 30 nightly.
I had the phone in airplane mode when I rebooted into TWRP to flash the nightly along with the xposed v78 sdk23.
After rebooting my simcard wasn't detected anymore.
It clearly is a software problem, and rebooting or wiping cache/dalvik didn't solve my problem.
I hope you can help me
Same boat. No SIM
No SIM card detected here as well after the 123015 update. I am not using the custom kernel nor was I in airplane mode when I flashed.
Tried rebooting a couple times. Removed SIM card and replaced. Couldn't get it to recognize.
Same problem here with the 123015 update. Reverting to old roms did not work.
just use search ...
you probably use twrp 2.8.6.1 or greater, so new modem firmware in 30/12 nightly is not updated correctly, if you use cm, use cm recovery too or twrp 2.8.6.0! and update rom again
reflash old firmware and it will be back.
its a combination of bad luck and bad flash on the recovery you are using.
use twrp 2.8.7.6.0.
That one is not prone to bad flashes of firmware
no need to restore efs cause the bad flash can be corrected

Where do I find the 'old firmware'
deleted
just back to 29/12 nightly, flash correct recovery and again flash 30/12
I'm also having this issue, but it happened under different circumstances:
I was using the last CM12.1 nightly (2015-11-21).
On a previous occasion I had clean-flashed the CM13 nightly (2015-12-10), however it was freezing and crashing quite a lot so I decided to wait a bit, and restored my CM12.1 build (after making a nandroid back-up of my CM13 build).
Yesterday (2015-12-30) I thought I'd see how the CM13 builds were going, so restored my CM13 backup... This is when my phone refused to recognise my sim card. On top of this, it would randomly reboot for no apparent reason. I updated to the latest CM13 nightly (2015-12-30) but these problems weren't fixed.
I then decided to restore my CM12.1 build (which was backed up right before I attempted any of this), however the problems remained. It wouldn't recognise my sim card and would reboot at random.
Since then I have wiped cache + dalvik, cache + dalvik + data, cache + dalvik + system + data + internal memory, done a fresh install, and still the problems persist.
After reading the above posts I'm going to try and roll back my TWRP to 2.8.6.0, but needless to say it's been a very frustrating experience!
If anyone can see anything I'm doing amazingly wrong, please let me know.

in your case your efs may have gotton corrupt, next to a bad flash. Do if flashing old firmware doesnt fix it, restore the backup of efs if you made one to make more confusing you may need a special twrp version to have made the backup on in first place. to make more confusing.
Try this first,official twrp doesnt backup the firmware, so chance is highest you are running cm13firmware and cm12 rom. flash and reboot on recovery official 2.8.6.0, clean and repair system, data, cache. Flash old cm13 and let it boot. Note you should have no(maybe just 2) lines which state after "Writing radio image...")"already up to date
All functioning then score! Proceed with latest nightly
All not functioning efs restore should help. Never made one, follow above and flash back the cm12 rom you have. Same case with firmware updating and booting

I restored my twrp to 2.8.6.0 (after wiping the entire phone previously... urgh), and then flashed the latest nightly. Everything worked again!
I ended up going back to my CM12.1 backup as the TrueCaller CM app keeps crashing in CM13. I could just keep the stock dialer, but I have grown accustomed to knowing who's calling me!
Thanks for your help all!
I get this issue as well.

Hi, I'm stuck. I have tried flashing the twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img recovery image file I got from dl.twrp.me. The file matches the MD5 I got from the TWRP website (f69fa503419644851822d883c2388bb8), and I don't see any errors when I do a fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img command.
However, when I have tried to boot back into Recovery Mode, my phone just ends up booting into Normal Mode (until my phone gets hung). Doing a fastboot boot twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img command didn't get me into Recovery Mode, either. If I go back and do a fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0-bacon.img, I can boot back into the 2.8.7.0 TWRP Recovery Mode, but that won't let me get my modem back.
Can anybody help (maybe with a different copy of the twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img recovery image)?
Thanks.

Download again via different browser, double check filesize of what you downloaded. It was a bad download sir
You can download on your phone also, same check download size. From twrp where when flashing you can select img. Then select recovery, reboot recovery and your on the one that works

Hi, @Startlinger - I've downloaded twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img with three different browsers (Chrome, MS IE, and Firefox). All three images acted the same way: They all matched the MD5 posted on TWRP, and they were all unbootable (either by flashing, or with a fastboot boot twrp-2.8.6.0-bacon.img command). I couldn't download the image to the phone via the internet, because I can't get an internet connection on my OPO anymore - probably because the modem is corrupted. I did copying one of the computer-downloaded 2.8.6.0 images to the phone, and tried flashing the image through TWRP 2.8.7.0, but the results were exactly the same ... it wouldn't boot into Recovery Mode after that.
Is the f69fa503419644851822d883c2388bb8 MD5 value correct? (I suspect it is)
One thing I've noticed is that I can't just power-off my phone anymore when 2.8.6.0 is loaded. If I try to power off, it comes back up in Normal Mode. This may be related to the corrupted 2.8.6.0 Recovery Mode.
Update: I've also noticed something else - I tried doing a fastboot boot twrp-image-file with other versions of TWRP (2.84.1 and 2.8.5.1). None of these boot into Recovery Mode - just the 2.8.7.0 image works.
Is there something else I need to recover on my phone (if it's even possible)? Is there any other way I can reinstall a workable Lollipop 5.0.2 Modem Image onto the phone?
well, thats a first gotjazz.
I would recommend 2.8.7.05 from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087010524
if same results, perhaps best to download latest fastboot rom from cyanogen. Then fastboot your way back to a complete stock situation. Before doing so wipe everything in 2.8.7.0, and repair all partitions that allow repairing.
when fastbooting everything take care in using the 64 if you got 64 gb
After let it boot, check if you can get reception. If that works, fastboot flash recovery of 2.8.6.0. or 2.8.7.05 and go back to whatever rom you want

Hi,
Just for you to know:
Model: r7plusf
Recovery: TWRP 3.0.2-0
----------------------------------------
So earlier today I did an OTA update (cm-14.1-20161205-NIGHTLY-r7plus.zip), but couldn't get my phone to boot.
So naturally, I tried wiping Cache and ART cache, but was still bootlooping.
Thought there might be someting wrong with my ROM and data, so I formated data and Installed ROM and GAPPS again after ADB pushing them onto my phone.
Now, and although CM14.1 and GAPPS are successfully installed on my Oppo R7 Plus, I can't boot into the OS. Every time I try reboot system, whether through POWER_BUTTON, RECOVERY or ADB, I just boot into Recovery.
Worst of all, for some unknown reason, I can't get into BOOTLOADER, neither through button combination, nor through Recovery nor ADB.
I found this article (http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/general/fix-recovery-loop-twrp-computer-t2873386) in the LG G3 thread about executing some shell commands, but I haven't tested testing it with my phone's variables because it might hard brick it...
Please Help!
[EDIT] I now have access to fastboot but still recovery looping like crazy.
I installed the same update via CyanDelta , worked like a charm ! hopefully you get back up and running.
[UPDATE] strangely I tried to flash stock recovery and boot CM13 and it worked!
Will try to flash twrp again and insall CM14
keep you up to date
Same thing happened to me! Where did you get a copy of the stock recovery? Link?

I had the same problem. Can't remember exactly how I resolved it. But I think, I use CM recovery to flash nightly. Then flash TWRP to flash gapps. For some strange reason, using CM recovery also show no enough disk space whenever I try to flash opengapps. But TWRP recovery can flash opengapps successfully.
Don't use the OTA, use adb sideload to flash the nightly next time. So far, adb sideload has not given me any issue to flash nightly.
Same problem...
I tried a lot of things nothing works and now I've installed the cm recovery but I have the "unauthorized phone" in terminal when I try to flash the ROM... I can do nothing because I can't enable the usb debugging. I don't know what to do.
If somebody can help I appreciate.

Since then I found how to fix it :
first of all I flashed cm13 through TWRP,
Then I flashed the stock recovery (Google it, I found it in OPPO forums) with fastboot,
After that I did a factory reset in the stock recovery,
Booted cm13 with stock recovery,
Then re-flashed TWRP,
From TWRP, I wiped both data and system partitions,
Then fresh installed cm14 and Gapps
And it worked!
Not sure if those are the exact steps I followed because all I did was a hole lot of messing around and trying absurd things out, but think this is how I fixed it.
Let me know if it worked for you or if you still can't fix your problem
Best of luck

Thank you very much!!!! I'll try tomorrow and tell you.
I appreciate a lot!
First of all now works but to be honest, I don't know if the way I fix makes sense or if is correct but not for the same reason I do but I'll try to explain...
I had cm-14.1-20161218-NIGHTLY and I tried to update via OTA to 20161220 the phone reboot and I get the bootloop. The first I thought, install again the ROM making wipe data and blabla... nothing work.
I tried to "reflash" the recovery, nothing. Flashed cm recovery, it always gave me error trying to flash the rom. I tried to install with stock recovery, errors too.
I was reading hundred of post looking for my issues, device unauthorized, "error 7" in twrp... I was crazy.
At last I thought, I've been trying to install from SDcard, if I try to install from internal memory? and I install again the twrp to transfer the ROM and Gapps to the internal memory and... it worked!!!!
Long story but with happy ending.

Hello everyone, I'll tell you what happened
First I was in CM13.1, then I flashed to oxygen OS 3.1.4 custom
(When I flash the ROM, without warning me the recovery was updated to the version TWRP 3.0.3-2TugaPower, previously being in a version inferior to 2.8)
After logging in to the new recovery, I noticed that the recovery version was not on the TWRP page, so I decided to flash the most recent version of TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-bacon.img), flashe it through Android sdk (Fastboot), everything went well the pc recognized me the OPO in fastboot Mode and flashe the recovery without problems, the problem came when I try to enter the new recovery the OPO does not enter the recovery stays in the OnePlus Logo.
(Before updating the recovery I tried to restate the backup of my previous rom CM13.1 but when I was going to restart it it stays in the OnePlus logo, and when I go to recovery I fixed that in the section of "Mount" system is not checked , Active but still the same, and when I return to recovery is removed.)
I ask you if you can give me ideas to be able to have recovery again and revive my OPO plz.

I guess you didn't read the OP of Oxygen Os correctly,he clearly mentioned that this 'Tuga Power Recovery' is patched to work with Oxygen Os's firmware and one should not flash any other recovery.Now,what you can do is this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ikULjZZlloNHpOdVBrTzQxZzQ/view?usp=drive_web
> Download This file, install it somewhere and run Revert-2-CM.exe. Make sure you have fastboot drivers installed or it wont work.Avoid using any Antivirus program while doing this as they might give false alarms.After this you'll be restored to TWRP then you can flash any rom you want.The reason due to which you weren't able to find 'TugaPower Recovery' on TWRP page is because this is an Unofficial Recovery.
Question
What does the program do with the OPO?
If you are familiar with fastboot commands, this method should work. Had my OnePlus in the same situation last night messing around with Efidroid. Phone was bootlooping. Efidroid boot menu as well as recovery mode were both inaccessible. I had tried several other things but none worked for me. *CAUTION: this method did ERASE my userdata.* I downloaded a fastboot-able stock full firmware zip, then manually reflashed device. My beloved OnePlus is no longer my daily driver but still my fave device to experiment with so I just used COS 13.1 file. After full reboot, I downloaded and flashed official TWRP. Device is fully functional again, but without OOS installed.

It'll change your firmware and alter your recovery to a functional TWRP.You'll lose Oxygen Os after doing this.Though you can use this anytime when not being able to flash TWRP.
What should i do
Thanks a lot thanks to the method you told me my OPO has recovery again really thanks, but I have a question, I still in the TugaPower recovery, should I flash the stock recovery or the newest version of TWRP?
Because I do not know if flashing again the TWRP will happen the same
Hey Guys,
so i got a wierd bootloop problem and for now i didn't find any solution here on xda or somewhere else,
not even a thread where someone has the same problem.
I'll try to give you as much information as possible in a chronological order.
First of all I got the international model (G920F).
So like 2-3 months ago everything was fine, my phone was rooted, got TWRP working and was flashing Roms with no problem what so ever. TW-Roms like Noble Rom and also AOSP/Lineage OS.
One day I wanted to flash UltImAtE NoUgAt A8 Port and that is where the trouble began, dont think it has something to do with the rom but maybe it helps.
So i flashed the Rom(wiped everything except int. storage), flashing was no problem but it didnt boot.
I know first boot always takes some time but after about 20-30 min I forced a reboot (Power+Vol. Down for 7sec).
After that the phone got into a Bootloop(always rebooted into the "first bootingscreen")
I let this process happen for about 15 min. and then tried to enter TWRP via hitting the buttons between the boots which didn't work. I then did "force" a reboot(Power + Vol. Down) which strangely resulted in one final reboot and turning the phone off after the first bootscreen.
So with the phone finally turned off I was able to boot into TWRP and reflashed the rom but the result was the same.
I did the same procedure again to get into TWRP and flashed the Stock Deodexed TW Rom, flashing worked but then the Phone directly rebooted into TWRP. Rebooting out of TWRP or booting the phone from beeing shut down both resulting into booting to TWRP.
So to get my Phone working again I had to flash stock ROM which in my case is G920FXXU5EQDF_G920FDBT5EQD1_G920FXXU5EQCD via Odin.
That worked but of course root and TWRP were gone so I then flashed TWRP via Odin(both newest Versions at that point)
aaaaaand phone straightly booted into TWRP again all the time. I tried different combinations of older versions of both twrp and odin but the result always was the same.
So at the moment I am on Stock, the phone works which is nice but i really wanna get TWRP working again and i have no idea what to do.
I hope someone can help me with that.
Cheers Guys

So to get my Phone working again I had to flash stock ROM which in my case is G920FXXU5EQDF_G920FDBT5EQD1_G920FXXU5EQCD via Odin.
That worked but of course root and TWRP were gone so I then flashed TWRP via Odin(both newest Versions at that point)
aaaaaand phone straightly booted into TWRP again all the time. I tried different combinations of older versions of both twrp and odin but the result always was the same.
So at the moment I am on Stock, the phone works which is nice but i really wanna get TWRP working again and i have no idea what to do.
I hope someone can help me with that.
Cheers Guys

You do know that if you flash TWRP, you need to use a kernel that has dm-verity disabled or you need to be rooted. Flash TWRP then Flash Magisk through TWRP

As it seems I did not, good thing that its written right at the TWRP download page...
Can't remember doing this when I installed TWRP first but as it seems I did.
Everything is working fine, just flashed Nexus OS and it booted.
Thank you so much dude
