[Q] Cant flash recovery via fastboot after upgrade

Upgraded my bootloader to 10.6.1.14.10 with WW_epaduser10_6_1_14_10_UpdateLauncher thru TWRP recovery. I was running CROMi-X_ODEX_5.4_Signed and now I cant flash the TWRP recovery again or any recovery, Fastboot keeps saying cannot open TWRP.blob and my device is still unlocked. I tried to unlock again using the Asus unlock tool but it just gives me an error. So now I cant flash any recovery and I also tried to just install Su with Mototchopper but it wont install the binary for Su. I attached a copy of my log cat if thats any help

What command are you using to flash recovery and what is the error you are getting?

fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash staging twrp.img
and fastbboot says Error: cannot open twrp.blob
The error from the unlock app v7 says there maybe a connection error please try again later

If you are/were running cromi-x then you are unlocked. You cannot relock so no use in trying to keep unlocking it
Use this command - make sure that the twrp.img is in the same folder as fastboot.
Code:
fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot-bootloader

Any way to install TWRP on mix 3?

I have Mix 3, unlocked bootloader. I made a flash of the latest TWRP 3.5 perseus for Mix 3 with the command:
fastboot flash revovery twrp.img
Later I used the command:
fastboot boot twrp.img
the phone is rebooting and there is only a black screen. When I restart it manually and enter recovery, there is only a stock version (MiRecovery)

I have exactly the same problem. It only works when I execute the command
fastboot flash revovery twrp.img
twice.
However it I try to install any custom ROM via TWRP it ends up in a bootloop...

Thanks for the hint, i was desperate, it wouldn't boot into twrp at all, even with "fastboot boot twrp.img". Now let's flash some custom rom hoping it won't bootloop...

Error 7 Device name is "" instead of "ShieldTablet"

So i goofed up and wiped everything under advanced when I was switching Roms. I was able to get the original recovery image installed (nv-recovery-st-wx-na-wf-5.2.0.zip) but if i reinstall TWRP and attempt to install any rom, the device name is still "" instead of "ShieldTablet". Is there anyway to restore the device name? I have been digging around on the forums (Including other device forums) but installing recovery is all I have been able to find. (Note: There was some guides advising removal of the device name check from the script within the image file, then re-zipping it. But this seems to always fail with a bad image error.)
Recovery was installed manually using fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash staging blob
Recovery image pulled from https://developer.nvidia.com/shield-open-source

More info to issue.
Boot into bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot flash staging blob
Boot into OS. (everything works.)
EnableUSB debug
adb shell settings get global device_name (Gives back "SHIELD Tablet")
Reboot into bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.1_9-0-shieldtablet.img
Reboot into twrp
Copy on Rom and attempt to install.
Error text:
E3004: This package is for device: shieldtablet; this device is .
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/Lineage-14.1-20210312-unofficial-shieldtablet.zip'
Note: above error text occurs when trying to install any ROM.
I am trying to figure out where "E3004: This package is for device: shieldtablet; this device is ." is pulling the device name. That is the part that I need to fix somehow.

Hi did you try to use a older version of twrp ? I also had my issues with the 9.5.1 version as it doesnt recognize my sdcard so i reflashed the version 9.5.0

You beautiful person! Downgrading from twrp-3.5.1_9-0-shieldtablet.img to twrp-3.5.0_9-0-shieldtablet.img allowed the img to install!

Checking in with the same problem. Thank you for the solution listed of downgrading to 3.5.0_9-0.
Currently flashing!

[SOLVED] Flashing on Linux

I've recently switched to FerenOS(Unbuntu) tried flashing a spare device but I've run into a block. I've searched extensively but can't find what I need.
Whenever I flashed a stock image on Windows 10, I followed these commands:
fastboot --slot=all flash bootloader bootloader.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot --slot=all flash radio radio.img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot --slot=(current) --skip-reboot update image.zip
Everything goes good up until flashing the image. The phone stays in fastboot and fails to reboot into fastbootd and start the update with the error "FAILED (remote: Partition system not found)"
I'm able to get to fastbootd by going into recovery and typing adb reboot fastboot. But even trying to sideload from adb doesn't work. It says "adb: command failed to read: success"
My adb is up to date but I can't figure this out. Maybe I'm using the wrong commands? Any help would be appreciated.
Nevermind, it's been solved and the phone unbricked
