[Q] Flashed TWRP recovery but Cyanogen Recovery Still Present - Why? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I.
Followed this great guide by Heisenberg to flash TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
All went well.
Problem is: went back into recovery post-process, and Cyanogen Recovery is still the recovery image.
Why is this? Any suggestions?
Thank you

For the sake of this thread - I fixed this by doing this:
You dont have much experience with this? DO you?
Anyways go to developer options uncheck update cm recovery! Flash twrp again after flashing twrp do not reboot to system! Power off your phone and then first boot into twrp and then boot to system!
PS: dont forget to uncheck update cm recovery

Problem with TWRP -Solved-

Hi all,
I'm trying to get root access on my OPO, so I read some information about the process.
It has CM 11S R38.
* Update recovery unchecked.
* Bootloader unlocked.
Til here everything is OK. The problem starts when I install TWRP or any other custom recovery (I've tried also with Philz CWM). After the installation (via fastboot) it says everything was correct, but when I restart in Recovery the device just "freezes" (actually is the screen which keeps with OPO Logo) and then it becomes to black screen. After this happens I have to force a soft-reset to restart system.
I've tried to roll back to the stock recovery and it works perfectly. But any time I try to flash the custom recovery again, then blackscreen...
I really want to root my device, but I need the custom recovery to install the binaries.
I would be happy if I can bypass the recovery installation, that's not compulsory for me. My plan was indeed flash the binaries and roll back to stock recovery.
Thanks in advance!:good:

For me TWRP works only on ColorOS but the OS doesn't boot, with 11S the OS boots but recovery doesn't boot.

Can you boot into the recovery? Or fastboot? Also before trying to install a new ROM did you backup your previous?

Can't boot into recovery mode, maybe something went wrong while updating TWRP to 3.0.2 but can boot into fastboot.
also had backup of previous rom but since i can't boot into TWRP now so can't restore it. Earlier on TWRP 2.8.6 i was getting zip file execution error while restoring/installing new ROM.
So for now i have only access to fastboot mode, how to proceed futher?

You have 2 options you can flash the stock rom and recovery via fastboot here is a guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541 (Just skip step 4 don't relock the bootloader specially if you want to install TWRP) Make sure you download the correct file there is a 64gb and a 16gb listed in this guide or you can download the stock file straight from cynogen OS here https://cyngn.com/support
Or you can reinstall TWRP via fastboot by downloading TWRP here https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/ and install your backup if its still there. If its not there you can either download and install any custom rom you want or if you want the stock rom go with option 1 above and then re-install twrp. (Always remeber after installing TWRP don't fully boot into the system or you will loose TWRP, boot straight to recovery once its done flashing TWRP by holding the power button and volume down. )

Trouble with twrp recovery

Hi everyone
I have a small trouble installing the twrp custom recovery. At the moment, I have the 8.1.4 Miui with MM 6.0.1 official rom. With this, comes the MiRecovery, as you all know. So, to have the twrp recovery I flash the cwm recovery first, via MiRecovery as "update.zip". After that I swich off the phone and get again into cwm recovery. After this, I install the twrp recovery. Until here, no problem. The troubles comes now: if I swich off the phone and get into recovery it goes correctly to twrp recovery, but when I reboot to system to start the phone, if I try to get again to the recovery it comes the MiRecovery, not the twrp.
What am I doing wrong?
(I flash the cwm recovery first because renaming the zip file of the twrp as update.zip, it does not work; that's why I install first the cwm recovery).
Any help will be wellcome.
Thanks in advance.
Toni.
Hi.
It's solved. I don't know how, but now it works

Can't install Custom Roms.

Alright, so its without wasting time of people here, I'd just state the summary in points.
I flashed stock rom a.17 - I had custom roms before, I got fed up with them changing every 2 months.
Then everything worked fine until I flashed the boot.img from vishal_android_freak to get recovery.
I got the twrp recovery 2.7.0.0.
I flashed AOSP 6.0.1 through it, it was done very well but the rom stuck on boot animation for more then 30 mins.
I pulled the battery out - now I had TWRP 2.8.4.0
I tried flashing the rom again, it gave /data error.
I flashed stock rom, rooted then tried other methods of getting recovery, I failed everytime (Tried from TWRP app, su dd command, Recovery installer app )
Then I found a CWM boot.img to flash through fastboot.
I did and got CWM.
I flashed AOSP again from it, it stuck on boot animation again.
Then again I flashed stock rom and repeated the process.
This time with CWM, I flashed Stryflex LP Ultimate
It also stuck on boot animations.
Any idea why this happens? How to fix this ****?
Summary: Only stock rom works, not any other rom.

I think​, that means bootloader is unlocked again! Recheck bootloader state and always use latest TWRP recovery (v3.0.2 for us).
You can download Xperia L recovery from twrp website and then use your current v2.8.4 one to install that. Or just simply use adb & fastboot in your PC and enter this command:
Code:
fastboot flash boot [I]your recovery image name.img[/I]
. And then flash your desired ROM

Alright, I check bootloader state, it says bootloader unlock done means it's unlocked.
I am going to flash twrp 3.0.2 and will update you soon!

Oh Man, you saved my day! nothing worked but the damnit twrp 3.0.2
For anyone else referring here:
I get hell lot of graphical glitches when I flashed twrp 3.0.2, I just made it to factory reset and click install button although my screen was glitched and I cant even look at it.
JUST IGNORE THE GLITCHES! I wiped dalvik cache after flashing AOSP-RRO, now I'm flashing Lineage OS, thanks a lot! Button pressed.

Did TWRP 3.0.2 ultimately work with this?
If worked, I am also curious to know how much space is left there for apps in device memory, since the ROM seems to be Marshmallow based.

Unlock bootloader, flash twrp, vbeta, flash rom...ok but phone no boot!!!

Guys!!! what the hell!
i did everyting was written in here. Bootloader unlock, everything ok, flashed twrp, flash vbeta.img then flash any rom but the phone never boot! still go always and alwasy again to recovery!!!
What am i missing?
Format data in twrp.then reboot
I've done everything. Format everything ecc but nothing has changed...still no boot and recovery immediately.
I've tried to put the stock recovery again and it boots (i flashed of course via twpr the c.01 RUI ozip file before). I really can't understand.
I've tried to root the phone but again problem. I put the twrp recovery again (on the C.01 stock rom) then flashed magisk 20.1 or the latest. Everything ok, rebooted and....it says the boot img is corrupted, write or go to the service support! So i entered again in fastboot and flashed a new boot.img. No boot but can enter recovery. Put again the twrp, flashed stock rom again, put stock recovery, format data and now eveyrhing ok. Why so hard to even root???
Did you check format data on right bottom of twrp.this is not same as the wiping data
i made all format.
another curious stuff is. I put twrp, vbeta img . Reboot in twrp. ok. I reboot phone, go to RUI then i try to go again in recovery and .....no more twrp! but stock one! twrp has been replaced! why!!!!!?
Correct,Stock rom will replace twrp to stock recovery.but custom rom not changing recovery
I was doing the same mistake.
You must Format Data after flashing Rom and if on reboot to system it says Os not installed then first reboot to recovery.

uhm ok.
So basically - Flash twrp - go to twrp - flash rom (pixel experience for example) - format data - and then reboot to recovery again?? what's the point sorry
oh man i missed up the format stuff.
Thank you very much. I made it. After format data then i insalled the pixel experience rom via adb sideload now it started let's see hows it the modding rom world on this device!
I followed all those steps. My phone boots, stays on Lineage logo for 4-5 minutes and then it reboots back to orange recovery. Any idea? Thanks!
