help!

well iv'e got the 4.4.4 update for my moto g, the update stopped in the middle and then at text screen on the phone it's said the package as an error or something i guess and asked should it install untrusted zip so i did it and my phone was up again only to power off and on every half a minute.
so i want to to text screen((when you press POWER+volume down botton ) and chose the clock work recovery and the phone went back to work again as before with the kit kat 4.4.2 with no power off.
but yet again the device asked me to update to 4.4.4 and i'm an idiot so i did again, before end i cancelled the root on my phone(cause i thought the update stuck because the device is rooted) and let the update install itself again i got the text screen saying there is an error but now it would not let me install the untrusted zip cause i dont have root privileges, i tried to flash the phone with CWR and it said: "mismatched partition size (recovery)" i guess cause i flashed before end with CWR.
so i flashed my device with the TWRP recovery and did wipe (or installed the untrusted zip again, i don't remember) and the device once again was up again.
i again did the 4.4.4 update(yep i'm a idiot i know) and again it stuck, so i again tried to wipe via TWRP and reset the device, before i reset twrp said there is no asked me if it should install the supersu and pressed yes even though i used to towelroot.
now my phone when i turning it on, now its stuck on the screen in the image attached and wont start, if i press POWER+volume button for a few a seconds on the stuck screen i can access the text screen so i tried to flash it again with CWR and TWRP but it says "mismatched partition size (recovery)".
so the device stuck on the screen in the image and i cant flash it with TWRP or CWR, so i tried the recovery option in the text screen but it only shots down the phone.
is there any other recovery besides TWRP or CWR that i can flash my phone with? is there any other way besides flashing it there is not any other alternatives to those two flashes?

No.
And please use search. 'Mismatched partition size' has enough results to get you on your way. Flashing the stock rom from fastboot will probably be your solution, but have a look at similar problems that can be found on the forum.

Recover Deivce without volume Keys

Hi Guys, My both the volume keys does not work in my optimus one. Last time i did a factory reset by going to recovery directly from OS. But for some reason, after booting its full black and nothing works. Some error in OS maybe.
Now i need to flash a new ROM by going to either recovery and flashing or any other method like fastboot or whatever is possible. But the volume keys don't work to go to either one of them. Is there any other way? Pls help, i,m not able to use my device cos of this.

Install a quick reboot or any other application to reboot into recovery but you might need to flash a touch recovery also

Bricked my phone need help please!

Today I accidently wiped my internal and external sd card from twrp recovery mode. I was on Lolipop 5.1.
As I wanted to install Cyanogenmod Rom I tried to reflash CWM recovery. Ater doing that I was not able to enter the twrp recovery anymore. I had accecs to the unlocked bootloader and tried to reinstall the boot, recovery and system via fastboot but without any success. The phone did not boot and I couldnt enter recovery mode anymrore.
Now I accidently flashed via fastboot a wrong boot and recovery firmware (4.1) and since that I can not even enter fastboot. The pictre shows where I am stuck. On the bootloader page it says:
Error
Func NO: 10 (FUNC_BOOT_RECOVERY)
Error NO: 2
Can somebody help me to repair my device? Its brandnew.
What can I do without a recovery, without a system and without fastboot.

So (Vol-) + (Power) w/ usb plugged in doesn't bring it to recovery mode? Have you tried with HiSuite?

No because I had twrp recovery installed and tried to flash cwm over it. After that I had no recovery at all. But I made some progress now... I am able to flash the same newest twrp 2.8.7.0 recovery to the phone and I managed also to flash the 5.1 stock recovery. I flashed BOOT.img from 5.1 and SYSTEM.img from 5.1 and I got rid of the error in fastboot menu.
Stock recovery I can flash via installer_r24.4.1-windows from acbka.

And these two recoveries seems to be the only one that work on my phone....? Currently I have stock recovery installed and i put MT7-L09C900B324 on my sd card (dload/UPDATE.app) and did the three buttons rescue. It seemed to work but It stoped at 90% and still no luck. What am I doing wrong this time?
Hi Suite does not recognitze the phone. When I abort the istallation and reboot the phone starts with the Huawei Logo and goes black and starts to the Huawei logo and goes black and so on...
Here is a picture of where i am stuck at 90% right now, so close...:

SOLVED
After a 36 hour marathon my mate 7 is back and working. the trick was to flash the stock recovery for all Lollipop versions wich can be foudn here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...8-7-0-mate7-android-5-1-t3156779/post61958212 via linux. I somehow seem to have had trouble over wndows.
And after that do the three button rescue with the newest B 324 firmware which I have had installed before I destroyed my OS..
and my camera is now running normaly which was the initial reason i tried to install a other firmare.

When you say flash stock recovery for all LP versions, did you flash and then reboot each time? or flash over and when complete, flash over again still on fastboot?
Can you briefly describe in steps? Tnx! and Glad you were able to recover

I flashed via fastboot the stock recovery which you can download via the link above. the provider (user rowihel2012) claims, that this recovery works for all lolipop stock roms.
After that I made a reboot and pressed (power button and volume+) to check if its installed.
Than I downloaded the lollipop version I have had previously installed. In my case this was the B324 European version.
I put it on my sd card (dload/UPDATE.app) and launched the phone with the three button rescue method. The recovery recognized the rom on the sdcard and started to flash the OS.
After less than 5 min, my phone was restored.
I have made the experience, when using certain roms (B324, B308 etc..) with certain stock recoveries, I was not able to flash the OS and the recovery stoped always at 90%.
The recovery linked above seems to work great for the B324 version, I haven't tried any other stock roms with it.
I wonder if this will work for B327? Seems the actual last update for LP was B324, now I can't seem to get out of this firmware to go back to KK. When I flash transition B300, it's successful...but for some odd reason, when I flash 137, 143, 145 or 148...I auto go back to B327. This, after the fact I'm flashing those firmware's recoveries. Any ideas what I might do to get out of 327?

Also, what's this Vol+ and Power technique?, all I get is the three menu screen (reboot, factory reset and format cache).

You can try this recovery above which should work for all lollipop roms but I have no better idea as I have had basicly the same problem and could only flash the former rom i had installed whch was B324.
The Vol+ and Power i do to get into the recovery menu (the three menu screen) to check if the recovery was flashed successfully. I have had often the problem after flashing a recovery that it did not work. this is to check if the recovery works.
When i tried to flash a cwm recovery, i couldnt enter any recovery mode after that anymore. I panicked at this point but than i realised that not all recoveries did work for me. For example I could never flash a CWM recovery, not sure why. Maybe because I tried to flash a 4.4 recovery and I had a 5.1 BOOT.img installed?

I see, so then it seems like some recoveries did in fact work with fastboot on me, because the Vol+ and Power worked, but it either only put me in V100R001C900B300 OR MT7-L09C900B300. I've read that I can't just flash KK over LP, that I needed to flash the B300 which is why I flashed transition package first. Should I not have done this?
Once in transition mode though (I booted up and checked, then went back into recovery), if I flashed 4.4 (recovery), it oddly put me back to B327...strange even though the recovery flashed was B137 or B145.
Let me see this link above. I'm back again at 5.1.1 LP B327. I'll do instead fastboot and flash above the recovery and so on, and I'll post the results, if any. Oddly enough, if I flashed boot, recovery and system images of 4.4, I get an "Android" boot screen that hangs, no Huawei.
I really like LP because of some of the features not found in KK like the dual windows, camera tweaks, etc. But no root yet available. TWRP doesn't seem to work as well, fails in fastboot.

Okay...so I was able to flash down to B324, but not via the link provided. What I did was, flash B300 cust.img on (fastboot) then flash boot/recovery/cust/system.img (fastboot). Rebooted with VolumeUp + Power to check for recovery (success), performed a wipe and done! Back to B324.
Now I gotta figure how to go back down to B145, which is where I was at with Root and with no problems at all. If I flash B300 again and then B145...I get the "Android" logo (instead of Huawei) and then the HAM7 reboots and recovers itself back to B324.

Cannot access recovery after tuga power flash

Hello,
I've installed tuga power room and recovery (based on twrp) some time ago. I wanted to change room today but the recovery kept spitting errors. I thought that it had probably something to do with the recovery and tried to change it and thats when the problem started. I was able to flash clean twrp using tuga recovery but when i tried to reboot it would not enter recovery at all. Fastboot works so i tried reflashing different types of recovery but none of them seem to boot. My system works fine, so i am able to use the phone but i would really like that recovery to work. I've tried using all the methods i could find like erase recovery using fastboot, checked if the update recovery thing is not checked in dev options (it's not even there!), tried to boot into recovery using advanced boot, fastboot and volume down + power right after flashing recovery, still nothing can make it work.
Any ideas what else could i do? Asis said, the ROM is working fine so there is no problem with that but i have no root access and no recovery.
Same to me

SM-G930F freeze reboot TWRP problem

Hello.
My SM-G930F stock ROM was rooted with TWRP 3.3.1-0 from many years ago.
Until a few months ago i was facing somes freeze and reboot.
Now it's getting worse ,it freeze and reboot often (more than 5 times a day) and it freeze also at Samsung boot logo and need Download mode (Home + Volume down + Power) for power off but often still freeze at boot logo again.
In Download mode ,when i flash any others TWRP than 3.3.1.0 and reboot in Recovery ,it show the right flashed TWRP but in yellow mode (can do nothing , like freezed).
It only accept TWRP 3.3.1.0 but problems are same.
I flashed the whole latest stock ROM G930FXXU8ETI2 ,so loose TRWP but seems ok .
Now i flashed TWRP upper than 3.3.1.0 but still yellow mode, only 3.3.1.0 work but freeze come back.
I think NAND is corrupted in Recovery ,and when reading a particular part of it ,it freeze.
How test NAND?
Thank you for reading.
I am facing the same situation with my note FE. Until a few months ago I was using the same TWRP version on stock pie. The freeze then restart occasions started out of nowhere and the kept increasing, and now the phone is not usable. I was thinking of it being a hardware issue, because the restarts are still too frequent in stock pie without any modifications, so I might send it for repair.
I was told about this https://technastic.com/odin-nand-erase-samsung/, but didn't test it yet. Please let me know if you found any solution.

I think too because when boot on official recovery it cannot reboot to system but still reboot to recovery...
