Cannot install TWRP over Huawei eRecovery??

I am unable to install TWRP over the huawei eRecovery.
>I first unlocked the bootloader by using fastboot OEM command
>then installed TWRP. Tried all the versions that i found for mate 8. I get a message "OKAY"
> Then I get a message saying that I have to press the up vol button to go to recovery. And when I try to go to the recovery window I see Huwaei's recovery and not TWRP. I cant use TWRP manager for this as it will not work until I have rooted my phone. SuperSu through playstore does not work. How will I proceed with rooting and installing TWRP. I am stuck !!
Is there any application like ODIN for huawei? That always worked, no matter what went wrong. Please help!!!!!!
I guess I am using the international version

ure going about this all wrong mate
as already explained in the other thread, u cant enter twrp that way. if u press power up in the start screen ull always end up in the erecovery, no matter which regular recovery u have flashed.
easiest way to enter regular recovery is to install flashify from the playstore and choose to reboot phone into recovery

When the phone is off, hold on the volume + & power button at the same time. When the screen flashes on, quickly remove your fingers from the said key presses and it should boot into twrp. If you hold them too long it will boot into erecovery. If you want to reboot into twrp recovery when the phone is already on, then you will have to get an app like quick reboot or flash a Rom which has that option.

This.
Power plus volume down does nothing, TWRP-wise. However that is whta's being said to press in 99% of the threads/tutorials.
Took me HOURS and countless re-flashing of TWRP to figure this out myself. (the up *plus* down thingy). Really annoying.

Well, I have a question. What is the eRecovery, because I've seen this screen also and I dont know what it does. Also, there are three options in it: download latest version and recovery, reboot and shutdown. So if I press download latest version and recovery what will happen? Because I'm actually looking for a way to get off TWRP without having to lose any data (I want to install the latest OTA, but I've seen that TWRP doesn't support well those, and I don't want to mess up my phone)...
Please help!

easy: download a stock rom identical to your current version, extract recovery partition using the huawei app extractor from the rom's update.app file and then flash that through fastboot
and since u probably have no idea what im talking about, i suggest u use google and xda search functions before asking any further questions here dont be lazy and expect everyone to work for you and serve everything on a silver platter, do your due diligence!

Hi, simply press Volume up an down at same time when device is powering up...and hold it, until Twrp logo is on the screen. Works always for me.

Guys, volume-up+power goes to recovery
Volume-down+power goes to fastboot or bootloader

And just for the complete list:
Volume up + power AND USB plugged in goes into eRecovery (or TWRP, if you flashed TWRP to RECOVERY2 instead to RECOVERY)
Volume up and down + power and USB plugged in forces update via USB (indicated by a little USB-like icon in the recovery circle. The progess bar goes to 5% and waits for input from your PC)

True, when usb is attached

!SOLVED! S6 stuck in bootloop after TWRP-flash ( !SOLVED !)

SOLVED!
Hey there,
i just tried flashing TWRP (twrp-3.1.0-0-zeroflte.img.tar) via Odin (Odin3_v3.12.4_4) on my Samsung Galaxy S6 on nougat 7.0 and am stuck in bootloop (GALAXY S6-Bootscreen reappearing every 6 seconds). My device is not rooted, but i do have access on TWRP 3.1.1-0 and the Download Mode. I did not care about tripping knox as PingPongRoot doesn't support my Buildnumber (yet).
Is there any way to fix the bootloop without resetting my device to stock?
I tried wiping the caches, but nothing changes.
Any help is appreciated! :angel:

Note:
I do have a root file (N920_Nougat_Root_SuperSU-No_kernel_included.zip) on my device that could be installed via TWRP, but that doesn't help at all, right?

Reflashing – Odin doesn't recognize S6
I tried reflashing, but Odin does not recognize the S6 at all.
No device is beeing 'added'.
Could i transfer my user data (pictures, music) via adb through twrp to my computer?
I didn't backup, stupid as i am

Problem solved!
I solved the problem by flashing the root file (N920_Nougat_Root_SuperSU-No_kernel_included.zip) via TWRP-Recovery.
After this step, the phone rebooted and all my user data remained. Root & TWRP working just fine. :good:

1. Google or baidu the following twrp unofficial build "TWRP-3.1.0-G9200-G9208-G9209-G920D-G920P.tar" (Official TWRP builds will not work because they are for G9200 HK version)
2. Open Odin 3.1x.x and and uncheck the "Auto Reboot" option
3. Put the G9200 onto download mode and flash
4. Disconnect the usb cable
5. Hold "Volume Down + Power" (Hard restart) for 5 seconds and once screen goes black immediately release and hold "Volume up + Home + Power" (Launch Recovery)
6. You should see TWRP working If you did above steps correctly.
7. Now you got TWRP but OS is stuck in bootloop.
8. Flash latest Magisk or SuperSu with TWRP.
9. You're good!

V14 worked fine for me

It checks MD5 than says please wait and stops responding (nvm it was a bad file)

Had same problem, but more intense - my phone did not react to pressing VolumeUp+Home+Power, just bootlooped even in this mode
I don know how much time I pressed VolumeDown+Power (like 2 minutes), but eventually it just powered down
After that I was able to boot into twrp
In TWRP I flashed Magisk16 and wiped dalvik cache
Now It works
Also e2fsck'ed /dev/block/sdaSOMETHING
P.S. sorry, English is not my language

Samsung S6, cannot flash
i have samsung s6 sm-g920i, which is stuck in bootloop mode, i can however go to download mode but i can't flash it using odin with any files (stock rom, custom rom, combination file, twrp )
can't see any increase in the bar of the phone when the flashing process starts ( the phone is just as it is before no line of process increase shown), the phone is recognized by odin ( it shows added with blue line on the com part) but the problem is i can't flash anything in it.
flashing always fails.
won't go to recovery mode as well.

Not able to get into TWRP recovery, stuck on "Your device is booting now..."

Not able to get into TWRP recovery, stuck on "Your device is booting now..."
Hey everyone,
I just unlocked my bootloader and now want to flash TWRP and SuperSU. My Phone is already Nougat with Emui 5.
The Problem is that I'm just not able to enter the recovery. When pressing volume down + power or trying "adb reboot recovery" in the command line, the phone starts in the "unlocked bootloader warning screen". But not like in the normal warning screen it doesn't give me options but just shows a white line saying "Your device is booting now..." and thats where it gets stuck. Only gets hotter...
The fun thing is I already was in the recovery but wasn't able to flash the SuperSU (r275). Maybe it was not compatible with Nougat. TWRP just couldn't mount various things. After reflashing the recovery below instead of some other version (don't know anymore) I'm not able to enter the recovery again.
Feels like I searched the whole Internet and there is nearly nobody with the problem or a solution. Tried this as well: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/honor-8-boot-to-twrp-recovery-lost-root-t3567462. It seems like nobody who published a Honor 8 + Nougat + TWRP + SuperSU "How To" acutally tried it himself.
I used this TWRP https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563
Please help me I can't use WhatsApp because I need to restore it with Titanium (Database way doesn't restore all chats... Other problem)
Thanks everybody I just can't stand this anymore

I had this issue after downgrading to EMUI 4.1 and upgrading to 5.0 again via twrp. I flashed some old 3.0.2.0 version from another developer. Booted into that, flashed the update.zip package for emui 5.0 and then i was able to successfully flash and boot into 3.1.1.0

Thank you I got it!
So I got my L09 with Nougat/Emui 5 on it. Then just used TWRP from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70228949&postcount=252 (bootable, think ist ist 3.0.2.0) then flashed 3.1.1.0 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/twrp-t3566563 (bootable) and finally flashed SuperSu from first Link again. Other SuperSU versions (like the phh r275) WERE NOT flashable.

Magisk is the most compatible root solution for the Honor 8 on Nougat. The only thing that doesn't work (seamlessly) is MagiskHide, but the root itself works and flashes fine from TWRP.

I have tried to flash twrp multiple times to no success. I have tried multiple variations of the tool but for some reason when I go try to boot into recovery it takes me to erecovery which fails to do anything.

Are you sure about button combination

If you're trying to boot in to recovery with your phone plugged in to the computer it will także you to erecovery. If only i could find the person who całe up with this stupid idea that caused me hours of struggles, they'd pay for it. also when you use the pwr + vol.down combination let go off the power when you feel the vibration and further hold the vol.down until you see the boot screen appear.

I tried this like 20 times but this time it worked! I know have TWRP working. weird think tho is that no keyboard or default Huawei apps are preinstalled and BT isn't working.

Few problems with Binary SU and BusyBox
My phone seems to be rooted. Titanium Backup works but I have to accept every App instalation manually. With other settings restoring gets stuck. Also SuperSU reminds me every time that my BinarySU needs an actualisation but fails if it tries. And finally BusyBox just isn't able to get itself installed.
I'm thinking about restoring stock firmware, update to Nougat, and flash the two TWRP Versions and SuperSU again but hate to spend ours on my phone. OnePlus One rooting was sooo easy...

9.1.0.252 (C432E7R1P8) root does not work

Hello,
I was using Magisk wihtout any issue until last update of my Mate 9. Now software version is 9.1.0.252 (C432E7R1P8) and as after every upgrade I re-patch my recovery_ramdis.img and patch from fastboot. In order to boot with root, I used recovery mode and it entered in system with root privileges. After the last update I did the same but recovery mode enters in recovery mode and system shows as non-rooted.
Please help, how to root my Mate 9?

hi, you must install busybox from magisk modules. But huawei changed file system to erofs. Because of some folders only read. We cant delete and change anything from system anymore.
And adaway is not working.
i downgraded to b191.

Magisk does not change anything in system folder. Magisk is not enabled therefore I cannot install busybox. In Emui9 there was a workaround but seems it doesn't work anymore.

You must press to volume up and power buttons when opening for magisk enabling.

Huawei disabled booting to Recovery directly using Vol up and power, you end up in eRecovery instead. Easiest way is to flash magisk patched from fastboot, boot phone, enable USB Debugging in dev options (if you haven't already), and use adb to reboot. Command is:
adb reboot recovery
You can also flash patched image, boot to eRecovery and select the Wipe/Factory reset option, this will boot to recovery which is now Magisk so it'll boot to system with magisk. (Be careful though as the wipe command will still be there, so if you flash back recovery and boot to it your phone will automatically wipe. You can remove the file /cache/recovery/command to prevent this)

Thank you for information. So we returned back to "tethered jailbreak" times with Apple Is there any workaround for this or so far the only solution? Wipe data option is quite unsafe for me, easy to forget and after firmware update to have a wiped device.

It will loop to recovery after you boot to magisk the first time, so each normal reboot will lead to Magisk. You can force eRecovery/normal boot if you plug in USB and boot holding vol up.

It will loop to recovery if battery dies or if I shut down the phone and boot again or it will lead to non Magisk environment?

Hi guys, so i have an untouched p10 on the version above, to install magisk is it as easy as asking one of you for the RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img (not yet in the firmware database) and patch it if it hasnt using pc then also on the pc rebooting to recovery and done? Also has restart and flat battery been tested? I read above that you must use shutdown
Its a vtr-l29 if it makes a difference

FRP lock bricked my device? please help

I made a huge mistake, unticked OEM unlock in developer settings when I was on DEVBASE rom (G930FXXS6ESGD_DevBase_v6.0_encrypt.zip), and now what I'm able to do is:
- flash combination file: COMBINATION_FA60_G930FXXU3ARI2_CL7964511_QB19635501_REV00_user_mid_noship.tar.md5, this way I am able to enter recovery and download mode.
- flash stock rom via Odin: G930FXXS3ERLF_G930FORX3ERKF_ORX. After flashing, phone reboots blue screen "sotware update", then "Erasing" , unexpectedly restarts before finishing erasing, and then yellow triangle, " no command". Unable to enter recovery(black screen: #fail to open recovery_cause....), device is stuck in bootloop or I can get to Download mode, but can't turn off the phone.
what can I do? any help appreciated:angel:

1. it keeps rebooting and heats up
2. Kies doesn't want to connect, but even if it could....I think there is only 1 way: "Firmware upgrade and initialization" menu.... entering model number SM-G930F, and Serial Number ??????
(I was able to look my serial number up in this Factory Binary rom/Combination rom, but Kies states it's not correct which I believe - it looks kinda weird though. I am unable to find my box, since I got this phone used. I don't want to disassemble the back cover to check it on the battery because I would loose water resistance :/ )

Update: I have the box, also I spot the S/N on the back cover

I'm able to flash via Odin U3/S3 roms only(which are designed to my region), but it doesn't remove FRP LOCK...It was be good if any rom could start the google auth process, cause I have access to my google account, it's a silly thing that I got locked out from my system... :crying:

have you tried entering your own gmail account info in the fields where its asking for the previous users info?

the problem is that I can't even get into this menu, none of the stock roms I'm able to flash are booting up, except the Factory Binary (Combination rom). Even the lowest security rom is S3...? That one is actually not bootlooping, able to turn off device, but not booting up, recovery is working here and download mode.
I'm afraid that only a Z3X box software, with the physical box and cable could save this phone....

After ~20h work finally got into the phone!!!

this tutorial helped!
So the steps:
1. flash your device compatible Combination file with Odin
2. boot up, enable developer options, check usb debugging to be enabled
3. reboot into recovery, do a factory reset
4. enter Download mode
5. repack your device compatible stock rom's "AP.... .tar.md5" file into a new .tar file so it only contains: boot.img, sboot.bin, system.img
6. flash with odin, enjoy!
7. thank to this guy from the video
