[Q] CROMBi-kk flash

Hi!
I hope you can help me.
I obviously did something wrong.
Well I did unlock my tablet and got twrp running, also installed the rom but next after the reboot it just doesn't work and i will get this message (see the picture)
After that i am sent back to the interface of twrp.
I just recogniced I have twrp v.2.6.1.0 running - is that the problem?
Hopefully somebody can help me!

YOU MUST BE ON THE ASUS STOCK JB 4.2.1 BOOTLOADER VERSION 10.6.1.14.x AND TWRP 2.6.3.2+ OR CWM 6.0.4.6+ BEFORE FLASHING THIS ROM.
This is copied directly from the Developers ROM.

You didn't use 'Wipe Data' from the bootloader, did you?
Read the OP for CROMBI-KK, compare it to what you did.
Describe in detail what that was.
"Does not work" is not very helpful...
Check if you can get into fastboot.

Well,
I can go to Twrp recovery and fastboot
I did install the rom with everything present I think.. had to select some things and finish the installing
after that I had to reboot and now i just get the image with the penguins.
Can I somehow go back to the original rom? to restart these things?

If you made a nandroid before flashing this, then yes, you should be able to restore it.
But let's take it from the beginning. Post your bootloader, recovery and rom versions.
As long as you have access to fastboot you can fix this, so don't do anything hasty.
And please be as specific as you can about what you did. We can only help you if we find out where you went wrong.

hm ok I will try
well, I didn't make a nandroid backup - my fault :<
are there specific bootloader? I was on JB 4.2.1
I am now on twrp v2.6.3.2 but I was while I did the flashing on twrp v2.6.1
hm I did flash crombi-kk rom from the OP
maybe I did some wipe before in twrp .. i think it was recommended?
so now I can't do any reflash or anything in twrp - everytime I want to do something there is this error:
E: Unable to open '/cache/recovery/.version'
I also can't get access to my external SD

Check if you can get into fastbot.
Long press Power and Volume Down until you see tiny script.
Read it and post the bootloader version: 10.6.1.14.?

All right, your bootloader is current.
I would recommend that you flash TWRP 2.7 in fastboot, then boot into it, do a Factory Wipe in TWRP (that can take upwards of 60 minutes) and flash the rom again.

Ok.. I tried but I got the answer
failed (data transfer failure (too many links))
hm I think I've got no connection, right?
well and now I get the message:
FAILED ( command write failed( invalid argument))

What do you get with 'fastboot devices'?

Alright, everything good so far.
Now download the TWRP 2.7 blob for the tf700 and put it into the same folder as your fastboot.exe.
Then issue this command:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.blob
if that is successful
Code:
fastboot reboot
Then boot into TWRP via the fastboot menu.
Then you can factory wipe and flash the rom

Well I did that but nothing works
I've got now twrp 2.7 and i did that factory wipe but nothing ever happens.. just the usual message
'unable to open 'cache/recovery/.version'
Don't know what I did wrong :<
http://imageshack.com/a/img842/662/kwy9.png
that's the message I everytime get - doesn't matter if it's a wipe or install or something else

in bootlooder at the top there is this message:
>key driver not found... booting 05<

is it possible to formate my complete data, because I think therein lies the problem, exept fastboot on my device and flash a recovery from fastboot?

If you want to try that, go to the Wipe menu in TWRP, then to Advanced and choose "format data".
In TWRP this can take 90 minutes! D not interrupt it and make sure the tablet is charged or connected to power.
But this will erase your entire data.
The recovery has it's own partition which you can erase in fastboot:
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
.
Then flash the new recovery. You could also try TWRP 2.6.3.2 if 2.7 doesn't work.

Your posted image indicates that simulation mode is active in TWRP - turn if off in TWRP settings.
To format data, it's approximately this: Wipe -> Advanced -> Format -> Data -> confirm
Note that it takes up to 2 hours to format and trim the eMMC.

Well I don't know how but it suddenly worked.. i could reinstall the rom but now it seems i am stuck in a bootloop between the picture of the four penguins and a bootscreen of crombi-kk with loading tiles under it
between these two the tablet is rebooting itself constantly

Go back to recovery and do a wipe only Calvin cache and Cache.

TWRP 3.0.0.0 for the LG K10 K430xx MTK Variant

Hello everyone. Today I'm presenting you the first development for the LG K10 (MTK chipset). As you can see on announcement text this is beta stage yet so be careful and make you sure what are you doing on your device.
Note: This version can't be written over the stock recovery partition as this has further sizes than stock. Only can be used by downloading via fastboot. Check out installation instructions.

*/
What’s new in 3.0.0.0:
TWRP 3.0.0-0 is out now for all currently supported devices.
Completely new theme - Much more modern and much nicer looking (by z31s1g)
True Terminal Emulator - Includes arrow keys, tab and tab completion, etc. (by _that)
Language translation - It won’t be perfect and especially some languages that require large font files like Chinese & Japanese won’t be availble on most devices. Also some languages may only be partially translated at this time. Feel free to submit more translations to OmniROM’s Gerrit. (mostly by Dees_Troy)
Flashing of sparse images - On select devices you will be able to flash some parts of factory images via the TWRP GUI (by HashBang173)
Adopted storage support for select devices - TWRP can now decrypt adopted storage partitions from Marshmallow
Reworked graphics to bring us more up to date with AOSP - includes support for adf and drm graphics (by Dees_Troy)
SuperSU prompt will no longer display if a Marshmallow ROM is installed
Update exfat, exfat fuse, dosfstools (by mdmower)
Update AOSP base to 6.0
A huge laundry list of other minor fixes and tweaks
BUG LIST
Can't mount /data partition w/o wiping data because of encryption
Battery percentage doesn't show the correct value.
CPU Temp percentage doesn't show the correct value.
No more(?)
Installation Instruction
Warning: After applying these steps, you might lose your data and your device will have been installed some unofficial stuff. So, it'll give you some warnings during boot up. To skip this warning, just wait till device boots up. To remove this warning, you need to flash whole stock partitions (check this thread to do). As I said above, I'm not responsible for anything. You've been warned twice.
Install right usb drivers for your device. You can find them on official LG website.
Go to "Settings->About phone->Software information and click continiously on build number 7-8 times. You'll see a tost with message "You've enabled developer options."
Go back and go into Developer options, and check "Enable OEM unlock" and "Enable Android Debugging"
Download ADB, fastboot and drivers. Run and install/accept everything. When you're done, copy/cut and paste the image file to root directory of adb folder. (Must be like this http://i.hizliresim.com/jnga7r.png)
Connect your phone with your PC, run command promt and type following commands;
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
-Check your device after this command and follow the instructions on your device. Apply the steps to unlock the bootloader. (This will erase all data)
fastboot boot twrp3_k430-berkantkz.img
And after all these steps, you must see TWRP screen on your device. It will ask you for the password. Don't worry, just click on cancel and voila! TWRP is done for your device. You can edit your system or flash anything with it. But it's not possible to make modifications on data partition unless you wipe it. You need to wipe data partition to remove password/encryption.

This thread is not for rooting. If you're asking for does this work on K430DSF, must work. It has alos MTK chipset, as far as I know.
About rooting, I couldn't find a right method to root this devices. Actually, I don't need to root my device. Root isn't needed to port new roms. Root can provide you only customizing stock rom. So I'll try to port new roms.

bootloader enter your imei it will give a key following all instructions precisely. it tells you the rxact command to use for unlocking the bootloader. after its unlocked, open your command prompt in your adb /fastboot folder. then adb reboot bootloader. after reboot phone will be blank screen. you have to download twrp 3.3.0.0 .img its the most updated. do that before the adb thing. then after adb thing, when you are booted into bootloader.....fastboot boot twrpxxxxx.img
this will boot into recovery. make sure you have magisk 19.zip doenloaded to your phone. then just flash magisk from the recovery, after reboot install magisk apk. there you go. sorry all of this is not in order. ive done it so many times im skipping ahead. i can give a better detailed and precise instructions if needed, litterally walk you thru it, if you need it. but the instructions provided by all the download sites are great. its easy peasy. if you need bettrr instructions youre more than welcome to get in contact with me.

you can keep the stock rom fyi. and theres an updated android 9.0 pie stock rom floating around too. im using it, no problems. you have to use xperifirm and flashtool to flash it tho. its simple unless its your first time doing, after you do it once youll ask yourself why it seemed so hard to get to that point. also, fyi, this particular is almost brick proof not saying it cant be bricked because, i did, several times boot looped it, everything, **** right now i dont even have a stock recovery because of some errors i made learning how to do all of this, but its up and running, its not buggy, magisk works great, stock android 9.0 firmware, just no recovery, but good ole twrp works just fine when you boot it for recovery. great phone to learn how to do all of this on. like i said its almost brick proof.

Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra - ROOT and Stock Rom 9.0
enter 192_161_227_73 in ip address format with the ftp header ftp://
should make rooting a little easier, need unlocked bootloader
simple interactive root process
also contains android 9.0 stock for Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra H3223

thanks Luk1337 for your work.
A) I get a stuck boot on SONY white screen when trying to reboot after a boot to twrp using fastboot (swipe to allow modifications and nothing else). Fastboot boot to TWRP was after a clean installation of Android Pie.
B) I even made a TWRP backup of the Android Pie rom but restoring backup runs into same issue of stuck on SONY logo). (well if just a twrp boot to resulted in a stuck boot (as in A) rebooting after a twrp backup restore would not have a chance either but just mentioning)
I am guessing we need a disable verity to avoid this?

Accidentally formatted system partition in recovery

Hi, after installing TWRP, I was trying to do a fresh start on my op7 pro, but accidentally while formatting, I also happen to selected my system partition and formatted it.
Now I'm stuck on fastboot screen and can not install recovery or OS any how....
Can I recover without using msm tool from their support...
Help please

Just flash the latest build again from TWRP
- Download full OTA
- boot to TWRP
- plug phone to PC and move the downloaded OTA to phone internal storage
- In TWRP browse to OTA and flash it but DO NOT REBOOT
- flash TWRP installer
- reboot to TWRP and flash installer again just to be sure
- Reboot to system

I tried to do the same, but everytime I try to boot into recovery from fastboot, I get the same error
- FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
Even tried different versions of twrp but same is happening

So, wait a minute... You did not install TWRP to the recovery partition before starting to format stuff?

In your first post you say "after installing TWRP"
If you have correctly installed TWRP you should be able to get to recovery by holding down power button and volume up button.

I did, installed TWRP quite a while ago before all this.
I was testing the latest dp on my mobile, but later I decided to revert back to stable. I flashed the pie version in local upgrade and wanted to start over.
So after booting once, I rebooted into TWRP and mistakenly selected system partition along with local storage in wipe option.
And now fastboot is the only thing I can boot in

I somehow don't think you are telling the story exactly as it went
I am assuming you flashed a full build and rebooted without flashing TWRP in-between.
Also, I am assuming you have flashed an older build that has the fastboot bug.
This means that you might be pretty screwed.
You can try to ADB push the full OTA via fastboot and flash it there using command line.
I guess at this point you are not caring anymore if you keep your data, right?
Also, there were some patched boot images laying around that might be worth flashing to see if fastboot is working on them.
As you have come across, there is a fastboot bug in some builds - I guess at some point it was fixed and then it reoccurred.

BTW, I guess the link already posted in this thread might be your best bet, since you have removed TWRP when you flashed the updated build and you cannot fastboot recovery, as you have found out, due to a bug from OnePlus.

Just get the fastboot ROM for the same version you're on. For example 9.5.10 then you HAVE to use the one for 9.5.10.
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294300
Just download the Fastboot ROM (Make sure it's for your device as well). If on GM21aa then that's the one you use.
Put the phone in Fastboot mode and attach the phone to PC
Type Fastboot devices and make sure it comeback with your device serial number (like 6 or 8 digits, cant remember exactly)
Unzip the fastboot ROM and click on Flash-all.bat
Your phone will be like new as if shipped with 9.5.10 or whatever ROM you're on. There will be no root/TWRP/files (photos or music). You will have to do it all again but your phone will be working.

Can't install any twrp on Redmi Note 7 pro

I've been trying to set up twrp all day, but after almost every attempt, I gave up. If i put official and last twrp, the phone goes to bootloop and has to be flashed through MiFlash global ROM, after some custom twrp or Peter's twrp, nothing happens, if i try to enter recovery mode after some old twrp's, the phone automatically goes to bootloop.
What am I doing wrong, friends? Plz help.

Unlocked? I know stupid question but...
Fastboot, flash recovery, don't reboot and but ur finger on vol+ and power button?
What for steps u made and adb plus driver? Maybe some can help u.

When starts booting into system.... Use hardware keys to boot into fastboot instead of booting into system... Do this very carefully

So, i did like yoy wrote in instruction, when was first reboot, i pressed button to enter into fastboot, then flashed twrp, then again restarted for finishing process of instalation. When all is completed, tried entereing into recovery, there's not twrp, just factory recovery was.
So doesn't work this one.

No first reboot. After flashing push direct the button for the recovery menu.
Or
fastboot boot recovery.img
Then flash the recovery.zip with the booted not flashed recovery.img

You are doing it wrong mate.... Anyways can you post the output of this command "fastboot oem device-info"... Read understand and do again.... Don't reboot or boot until u flash recovery.... Can't repeat everytime bro... You have to use your brain

As i said before, i did it many times. There's happen or bootloop, come this logo funny bunny, or sometime it load to factory recovery.
I suppose, maybe something bad with adb drivers? Coz i didn't update it since i have RN5... But in console seems everything is ok, the device is connected and see.

U test the boot method?

And again not one time

I don't really understand asking you not to rebooting the device until I flash twrp. My steps: If I'm flashing through MiFlash, then the device automatically reboots, I tried to enter fastboot mode at the moment of reboot, and yeah I entered and flashed recovery(at least seems like that), but then when the device rebooted manually , again I see that there is not a custom recovery, maybe I missed something and your devices do not do automatic reboot during the flashing, or your instructions are wrong. Sorry man.
