Rebooting into recovery when rooted - Google Pixel Questions & Answers

I have TWRP installed and I'm rooted.
I've noticed that apps such as quick boot don't allow me to reboot into recovery. If I select recovery, or fastboot it reboots the phone but the phone comes back to the normal boot again.
The only way I can reboot to recovery is to physically shut off the phone, and use the power and volume keys to go into fastboot and then recovery.
Is this expected behavior?

Can't say that's normal. I use Quick Reboot , or WETA Reboot, or several others. They all reboot into the boot mode selected.

doesnt for me either.

I used the widget option from the TWRP app in the google play store, it reboots in to all options for me.

One, that article provides directions on how to root. The OP ALREADY rooted his device. Two, some of those given commands are outdated. Sometimes, Google is not your friend.

I am attempting to go into Recovery Mode but am unable to do so.
Also, I have tried plugging in the TF101 into my Windows 7 x64bit computer and drivers are unable to install properly. I have tried to manually install the drivers from the ASUS website but that doesn't work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

What method are you using to try and get into recovery?
What is it doing /not doing when you say you can't get into recovery mode.
are you doing these steps?:
Vol down plus power button
When you see words at top left corner
Immediately push Vol up within 5 secs.
or use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sMSwxLDEsImNvbS50cmFuc2Zvcm1lci5yZWNvdmVyeSJd
I am using the volume down button+power button trick to boot into recovery. I then proceed to press the volume up button to load rck and then I wait five minutes for it to stay on that screen with the logo and white text in the top left corner saying that it is loading the recovery image....I'm guessing my device is frozen at this point.
I also tried the Reboot to Recovery application you linked to. It reboots my device then stays at the EEE Pad logo screen....frozen again at this point.
What's the serial number of you're tf? If you have an sbk v1 you can nvflash a recovery image and see if it work.
I got a B70 model...
I also can only boot into my device using a Cold Boot of linux....
I think I have to wipe all of my data and start from scratch.
Thanks for your input and help!

[Q] How do I re-root after un-rooting?

Hi,
A few months back, I unrooted my NS4G in order update to the official ICS release. Initially, I was content with the official ICS on my phone, however, I've come to miss the fun mods and features that are available with custom ROMs. Now, I can't seem to re-root my phone.
The bootloader is still unlocked so I tried going into recovery like old times but received a blank screen with an image of the android bot face down with its back door open and an exclamation point (pictured below).
Please help. Although I've rooted a few phones, including this one, I still feel like a rookie and may be missing something very simple.
Thanks!!!

You need to snag a custom recovery and get the current superuser. After that, you will need to make sure you either edit the script or delete the script in the system so it doesn't overwrit CWM.
Recovery fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27027436&postcount=8
Superuser:http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
CWM
The recovery needs to be pushed while in the bootloader via fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo4g.img
Recovery first, superuser flash 2nd, fix the recovery last once you've fully booted up.
When the faced down android appears , try pressing volume up button once . Helped me one time.

So how about an update? How are you going with it?
I have had intermittent problems in the past similar to yours, and I was able to solve it - where are you up to?
You should go into a command prompt on your computer then do a fastboot oem lock then unlock. (This will erase all data)
Tell me if this works
Screenshot shows the phone is already unlocked-

will the phone boot into fastboot? with the phone off, vol down + pwr ?
I used method 2 manual flashing from the thread you linked to. It was not a developer phone, and the commands said they all failed, but the phone still returned to stock.

The phone installs the patch via recovery.
But how ?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
It's supposed to install automatically. Is your phone 100% stock? You might try entering recovery (from Andy on back with red triangle, press and hold power button while you push volume up once-release both and you should see a list of commands. The button thing can be tricky to do. https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/4596836?hl=en option #2, item 5. ONLY ITEM 5. DO NOT RESET PHONE). Choose Apply update from SD card. If it doesn't find the update, it will either still be in the Android recovery screen from which you can Reboot system now, or just hold the power button until it reboots. You'll have to move up to more complicated attempts (adb sideload).

Is your phone unlocked, rooted? You can download the OTA file to install with a custom recovery module.
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/ota
If your phone are original ( do not root, unlock bootloader...) you can received small sercurity update from GG month by month. Click and waitting update and restart ( maybe 10"-15") . Don'ts restart orr turn off during this time .

autometically restarted in recovery mode

When I press volume up + power to enter recovery mode, only the recovery start screen blinks for a long time.

Blinking is forever. So I reflashed recovery for several times
And now, Blinking is still forever..!!... (ha.......)
What should I do to fix this??
There is no problem booting into the Android system and fastboot mode
(I'm thinking of Factory reset or format data)
