I have unlocked the bootloader on my Moto G.
I have also flashed ClockworkMod Touch sucsessfully, but it did not boot after the first reboot, even when I said yes to "Disabling the stock recovery reflashing".
Now, whenever I enter fastboot mode (POWER + VOLDOWN) and select RECOVERY, it comes up with "No command." and a picture of an android lying down, with its front open, with warning symbol. (See attached)
I have tried reflashing the recovery using fastboot, but the same problem happens.
Any help?
Press volume up for 10 seconds and then just tap power button once and release both.

Get the same issue after flashing a recovery with fastboot...
how i fixed it :
Flashed another one (CWM swipe on the cm11 thread) through fastboot mode
once recovery flash is done, go in the recovery RIGHT NOW (volume down to scroll, volume up to select ; don't touch power button)
once in the recovery, flash supersu if it has to be done, then reboot
Worked for me
Left it overnight plugged into my laptop, now my phone isn't turning on.
So yay, I have bricked my first smartphone!

That said, it has been unbricked.
Whenever I flash a recovery, I still get "No command.", Phenom.
Thanks
That new step above is the thing to do: hold Vol Up for like 15 seconds and then just tap power. It should work, but kinda tricky to get the first times.
I got the same "No Command" screen when I flashed TWRP recovery. Then I went back to bootloader mode and flashed it again. This time I noticed a "Mismatched partition size" error (it's probably there before but I didn't pay attention). Then I flashed CWM recovery & got the same mismatched partition size error. Then I flash TWRP again & again got the mismatched partition size error. At that point I searched xda forum & found someone said it's OK. That error message just means the new recovery size is different from the old one. So I tried going to recovery (vol down then vol up) and magically it worked!
Get the normal CWM, then
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
then right away enter in it, vol down to highlight it, vol up to select/enter.It should work

If your flashing CWM, flash it then select recovery and press volume up, if it ask for something choose yes, if it still shows no command press UP + POWER button if nothing happens just keep pressing up + power until it boots into recovery.

What is this supposed to do? It gives me some commands but doesn't look like clockworkmod recovery. I think it is default android recovery but I thought cwm was supposed to replace that?
When I first flashed CWM and booted into recovery it worked fine. Then I chose 'Reboot Now' and selected 'Disable system recovery' and 'Enable root'. However now when I reboot into recovery CWM doesn't work and I can't tell if I have root.

That's for the stock recovery indeed, try reflashing CWM.

I'm assuming you mean to do this through CMD prompt? when I try to put that in it just says < waiting for device > and it sits there. (regarding to the fastboot erase recovery part)
Edit: Okay so It was saying waiting because I wasnt in fastboot mode... (Im an idoit but learning) so I beleive I got done with the fastboot erase part but now when Im trying fastboot flash my CWM (recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.7-falcon.img) its saying "Unknown Partition" and "Error: cannot determine image filename for"
---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------
Okay after messing around with CMD and your previous instructions I got it! (I think) Im in CWM recovery and trying to install my Supersu from zip. which is already on my phone but when I pick choose zip from /sdcard it says "e: can't mount /sdcard" I', useing a moto g that does not have a external sd card

If your phone is XT1032 try to install this TWRP instead of CWM using the same procedure (of course in fastboot mode)
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
Replace your zip with this SuperSU zip and copy it in SD Card
Then
- go in recovery mode
- INSTALL
- select SuperSU zip
- swipe
I think it should work

no access to recovery
I've got big problem. My One Mini is fine until I try to go into recovery. It refuses to go there.
I get fastboot and bootloader menus fine. It enters bootloader, but if I try to go into recovery, it just goes back to the main bootloader menu.
The problem started when I flashed CWMRecovery. Fastboot and adb recognise my phone, and accept commands, but when I try to fastboot flash recovery in it sends an error message. File not found.
I tried " fastboot boot recovery.img" but that just froze the machine .
When I try to get into recovery from rom manager or ROM toolbox pro, it takes me to the fastboot menu, not into recovery, and we're back to square one, as above.
Running android 4.3 Sense 5.5 software 2.12.401.1 Supercid 11111111
rooted and unlocked
To get the phone to work again, I have to hold power down for about 10 secs direct from fastboot/bootloader...may have to do this several times before it boots into Android.
If I turn power off from bootloader, it returns to bootloader when I power up again.
If I don't turn the phone off, once in main application, it's all OK.
Ho hum.
As I say , it works like a dream until I want to go into recovery.
Any ideas, please?
Thanks

The correct command to flash the recovery is
Code:
fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img
see also: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_fastboot_intro
Booting into recovery should be possible with
Code:
adb reboot recovery
I didnt tried CWM on the Mini, but used it on my old Marvel. I'm satisfied with TWRP for the Mini.
greetings
Yes, thanks. I know the commands should work...but that's the trouble..they don't!
I can get into the recovery menu...HBOOT /FASTBOOT / RECOVERY and so on, but selecting "RECOVERY" simply sends me back to HBOOT menu.
I can't flash anything under FASTBOOT, either. I've been doing this sort of thing for several years without trouble....until now!
So come on chaps..thinking caps on , please.

The RUU wouldn't run: it reported an unknown error, but having done so, it must have done something, as when I rebooted, I had access to recovery once again...briefly! Then it went again.
Anyway, I re locked / unlocked , locked a few times, and hey presto, it's sprung back into life!
Hello,
I have recived the OTA today and I flashed it and now I dont have a custom recovery and root. What steps do I need to take to get those things back? I have tried to use this guide https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...oader-install-custom-recovery-and-root.64487/ but after flashing recovery.img through ADB I still have normal CM recovery.
Go to Developer Options in Settings and disable the "update CM recovery" option.

It has been disabled the whole time
Ok. So you say you're flashing the recovery through adb but that's impossible so I'm assuming you're flashing with fastboot, right?

I'm not really good in those names.. I have isnerted a screenshot from this program.

Looks ok. Where are you getting the recovery from? Did you rename it to "recovery.img" for a reason?
Transmitted via Bacon
I've got that file from TWRP website and I renamed it to recovery.img. I have succesfully booted into this recovery with a command "fastboot boot recovery.img" which allowed me to flash root and xposed form it but after rebooting the phone the old recovery remains...
I have the same problem. Flash TWRP says it's flashed OK, but when I reboot to recovery it's still stock.

Same situation here...this solution isn't working for me, same problem, always Cyanogen based recovery...
After flashing new recovery, when you go to reboot, hold down Vol-Down and Power before it boots into the OS and it should load the new recovery. Had this problem myself earlier today, if you let it boot to the OS, it flashes back the CM recovery.

It works! I think it because of the dev settings into CM12S which force the recovery to be CM12S' one.

I'm having the same problem, can someone go over start to finish how they fixed this issue?
What worked for me
I previously had TWRP installed, wiped and did the C12S flash but didn't flash SuperSu before rebooting. This removed TWRP and brought me to Cynogen Recovery whenever going into recovery mode (Vol Dwn + Power). This also removed the root from my phone. To fix this took some digging and I came up with the following solutions as long as you had TWRP installed at one point. If not then unlock your boot loader and re install. I named my TWRP File Recovery just to keep things simple, but whatever your TWRP Filename is put that in at #5.
1) Enter Fastboot Mode (Vol Up + Power)
2) On your computer open command prompt (Ctrl R)
3) Plug your phone in
4) Type the following minus the quotes
"cd desktop/android-sdk-windows/platform-tools"
5) fastboot boot recovery.img
This will boot your TWRP, you can then go to flash your SuperSu file and you're done!
im having this issue too : /

I am using micromax A90s. I was using custom rom feather that is 4.2.2. two days ago my mobile started showing google services stop working and all messages and it was hanging alot. So I decided to reset my mobile to its factory settings. I boot into to recovery and reset my phone, but when It boot up nothing was changed. it didn't reset. then I used SPF tool and tried installing different ROM. It shows ok that ROM as installed successfully but when I boot still nothing was changed. I tried formatting and deleted my phone storage partition using mini tool partition wizard but all files the come back automatically. Now I don't know what to do. any suggestion and help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Okay, if you have access to bootloader fastboot mode,
Then unlock the bootloader by:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
Then, flash any custom recovery by:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery pathname\recovery.img
From there, perform a complete wipe, and install a new ROM zip file (like CM11)

Hold the button combination which shows a boot menu (including recovery)

Yes, vol+ power. There you will have a 'fastboot' option.

well nothing is working, I have tried everything you said, but when I restart my phone it is always on its previous state.
I am on Oxygen OS (2.1.4) with OnePlus recovery and am trying to install TWRP recovery without any success.
I followed the fastboot method rather than the stupid toolkit
All the steps go through easily with success messages but every time after completion I boot into recovery, it still is OnePlus Recovery and not TWRP
Note - There's not option called "Update Cyanogen recovery" to uncheck under developer options because as I said, I'm on OnePlus Recovery
P.S - I have a Mac and followed the tutorial via terminal under the path ~/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools

Turn off the phone by long pressing button, do not fastboot reboot
Then use power button + volume up combo and it should boot to TWRP

You claimed all the steps went through successfully which can only mean you fastboot flashed TWRP (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) and it showed success but if you reboot to recovery its still Oxygen recovery.
Your wording was misleading. My advise only applies if the flash was successful.
Do not reboot after flashing twrp, you have to shutdown, off the phone after flashing twrp...If you reboot, stock recovery will overwrite twrp..All you have to do is very simple, fastboot twrp, off the phone, enter twrp ( power + volume down) and done!...twrp will forever be your recovery..
