I don't know if I understood you but just to be sure; you get in recovery mode CWM and on reboot TWRP?
I don't think you will like this solution but probably you will get your phone to work again xD (you will lose your data)
First of all you need:
- Android SDK bundle (google it, you will find it) on your Computer
- And a Rom you want to sideload (In your case the Cyanogen Rom)
- Cwm
Follow this steps:
1. go to the SDK bundle folder you downloaded -> go to sdk
-> go to platformform-tools
-> copy your ROM (ZIP-file) inside that folder
-> and name it to ROM.zip (so you won't need to write down a longname in cmd afterwards)
2. go to the SDK bundle folder you downloaded -> go to sdk
-> now press [shift] + [right mouse button] on platformform-tools (folder) to open cmd
3. Reboot your device into recovery mode (use cwm)
4. Go to “Mounts & Storage” and make sure that you can see “Unmount /sdcard/” and “Unmount /system/” (If they do not show this automatically, just press each one once respectively as pressing just toggles Mount and Unmount).
5. Now connect your device to the PC.
6. Once the phone is connected to the PC type “adb devices” in the cmd. If it returns a long alphanumeric string the phone is successfully connected in ADB mode. (if not look out for a usb driver for your phone; most time the problem lies in there)
7. Now type “adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/ROM.zip” (replace the word ROM if didn't named it)
8. This may take a while so be patient.
9. Once the process is complete you’ll see a message like <12345678kb to 1234567kb> on the cmd window.
10. Now unplug the device.
11. Go to the main screen of recovery and perform factory reset, wipe cache partition and then in advance menu wipe Dalvik cache. (Now you will lose your data for sure xD)
12. Now go to install zip from sdcard and choose the zip file you just transferred.
13. Once the process is complete, reboot the device
Hope this will help you.

So I got to step 4 and I see the mount system but I don't see umount sdcard
Then mount system or skip this part
5,6 and 7 are the most important part.
Can you push the Rom on your phone?

I know I am repeating myself more or less (because I always edit my posts xD)
Well as long as you can push your file there shouldn't be sny problem

so I wrote the command and it sad "5143kb/s «241840314 bytes in 45.912s»"
then i went install the zip and I can't find it
ok i went and mounted the data , pushed the file and installed it, thank you so much
But now i need to install the stock backup that I did with TWRP
That's pretty weird xD Because you get the message for a successful transfer but can't find the Zipfile.
You could try to push the Zipfile again and don't wipe anything at all (because you already wiped everything) and try to find the Zip file again to flash it.
Btw what does CWM gives you as options if you click install Zip files?

Hi,
I want to upgrade my Nexus 5 (Android 6.0.1, not rooted) to Android 7 unofficially, so I downloaded Santhosh's Android 7 Build for Nexus 5.
After downloading it, I booted my Nexus 5 (connected to my MBP) to fastboot then using Terminal I had unlocked the bootloader, and I flashed the latest TWRP image for Nexus 5 to my Nexus 5. After I rebooted my Nexus 5 to recovery where it showed a screen (postimg(dot)org/image/rw3zdlmyt/), after which my phone kept rebooting in a boot loop.
I booted to fastboot after using the key combination, and used fastboot to erase the recovery and the system.
Now I'm all ears to get my Nexus 5 to Android 7.
Please help me out. I appreciate all your help.
Thanks,
Agneev
I recommend flashing back to stock, make sure everything works on stock, flash twrp, boot into recovery frlom fastboot right after flashing TWRP.

How should I flash back to stock since I've used the fastboot command fastboot erase system and fastboot erase recovery. Does my erasing of these 2 internal partitions change anything?? Since I've erased recovery, how do I get stock recovery back??
P.S. Thank you for replying.

Thank you for the reply, as I currently don't have recovery mode installed so does that change anything?
Also I'm flashing Android 7 directly, so if there is any other thing I need to know, please tell me as I would appreciate that.
To flash directly to 7, put the phone into fastboot mode and flash TWRP, boot into TWRP, mount data, copy the 7.0 ROM to the phone, and flash it.

apparently, TWRP says "Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)"
In this case, I would start over by flashing the latest stock ROM, including the userdata.img, and then perform a factory wipe using stock recovery, flash twrp, flash 7.

So should I download the 6.0.1 image for Nexus 5 and then use Nexus Root Toolkit and flash all the .img files individually or should I just launch the batch file inside the 6.0.1 image and let it install automatically?
I would go with the latest stock MM ROM.
I always flash manually but the NRT accomplishes the same thing. Not sure if NRT flashes userdata.img. If the phone hangs at the boot animation and NRT did not flash userdata.img, you should manually flash of userdata.img and factory reset using stock recovery.

Try this first...
First install nexus 5 Driver in you PC
1) put your phone into bootloader mode and connect it to pc.
2) open Nexus Root ToolKit ,select your device as nexus 5 and android build version as android 6.0.1 (MOB31E) and click ''Lunch" under ''Advanced Utilities'''.Now under ''Fastboot Boot'' select ''Custom Recovery'' and then OK.you nexus will automatically booot into TWRP recovery(you don't need to flash twrp recovery before",since it will boot your phone into twrp for temporary when you click ''custom recovery'' option)
3) if your phone boot into Twrp then its ok otherwise you may have not properly installed or missing nexus 5 drivers in your pc.
GUIDE FOR PROPER INSTALLATION OF NEXUS 5 DRIVER(see attached image).
4) Now transfer your (android 7.0+gapps) zip files in your nexus 5.since you can access you internal storage in PC in TWRP mode.
5) Before doing this step..please backup your current ROM because this step will erase everything from your phone except your internal storage.
Now select WIPE> Advance wipe and select Dalvik cache,system,data,cache and leave unchecked ''INTERNAL STORAGE''..Otherwise you will end up wiping you internal storage.
6) After wiping finised,go back to main menu option and select ''INSTALL'' and navigate to your Android 7.0 zip file folder and swipe to install..
7) after successfull installation you may get red error at last but ignore it and select system to boot..
8) if everything goes well then again boot into TWRP as described above and flash gapps and reboot.
9) after your phone starts you may get some apps errors like forced close or stop working or not responding..In this case just go to setting >Apps >just click 3 dots at top right corners and select show system and find that apps if it is a system app or user app and Grant all permission to that app.
10) now root your android 7.0 if you want to use rooted applications. like Adaway
(to block ads),Greenify(to increase battery life and performance),SCR Pro(to record screen),MiXplorer(advance file manager),LMT Launcher(to increase your display size),
CF.lumen(for eye comfort),Link2SD,Tubemate etc
11) But remember Since android 7.0 has been released recently..there are more chances of bugs in ROM,many apps may not compatible with android 7.0...as myself rolled back to android 6.0.1 after using android 7.0 for few days due to some issues with my favourite apps.
IF YOU STILL UNABLE TO FLASH ANDROID 7.0 DUE TO SOME ERRORS...
THEN TRY THIS METHOD...
first download nexus 5 factory image 6.0.1
1) connect your phone to pc in bootloader mode and open nexus root toolkit.
2) now look up for option ''Flash Stock+Unroot'' then hit and press OK.
3) now do as i shown in attached images (load factory image 1 and 2) and wait if it ask to download hatch like thing then allow,it may require internet connection and watch it..
4) process will begin automatically in cmd and reboot into system after completion.
5) now after system boots up to stock rom,just enable ''developer option'' by tapping 3,4 times in ''build number'' under setting >about phone and turn on ''developer option'' and enable ''usb debugging'' option.
6) now keep your phone connected to pc and click ''ROOT'' option in Nexus Root Toolkit.
It may require internet connection to download root files if its already not downloaded and wait till root.
7) after rooting your nexus 5.Again boot your phone into twrp mode (temporarly or else you can flash twrp permanently) using nexus root toolkit and backup your whole system file if you need it to restore at future.
GUIDE FOR FLASHING TWRP PERMANENTLY IN NEXUS 5...
a) download twrp recovery from here... https://twrp.me/devices/lgnexus5.html
and rename it to recovery.img (to replace your stock recovery)
b) now select ''advanced utilities'' in nexus root toolkit and slect ''Browse/other'' under ''Fastboot Boot'' option and click ok and browse your recovery.img(i.e renamed twrp recovery.img)
c) now it will automatically flashes twrp and will replace your stock recovery.
8) now in twrp recovery select wipe >advance wipe> Dalvik cache,system,data,cache and leave unchecked ''INTERNAL STORAGE''..Otherwise you will end up wiping you internal storage.
9) after this follw the same steps mentioned in previous first method...
for sake of more information you can also change your boot animation logo on nexus 5 startup..just by going to system >media>replace (bootanimation.zip) to your desired boot animation but before replacing change your new boot animation to (bootanimation.zip) and set permission as RWRR in properties.

1) download gapps first from here...http://opengapps.org/
then select Platform: ARM,
Android:7.0 or 7.1 as per your installed nougat version,
Variant: micro or nano.
2) flash gapps after entering into twrp recovery mode and reboot.
3) if any application crashes or forced closed then go to setting ,apps and enable all permission for that particular application.
4) root your Nougat using Nexus Root Toolkit
5) to maximize your screen use lmt launcher (see attached image)
setting for lmt launcher
> activation area position : bottom
>activation area thickness: 18
>activation area length : 580
> show status info: disabled
> PIE setting(pie item 1: recent apps
pie item 2:home
pie item 3:Back)
and important things is to remove soft bottom navigation keys on the screen using these steps
> visit root folder using any root explorer like mixplorer apk or es file explorer apk
> go to system folder and open ''build.prop'' file and add ''qemu.hw.mainkeys=1'' at last.
excluding ('') and save and reboot.
I finally succeeded it, after literally months of trial and error! So, I am writing this post in hope that someone who wants to install Oreo on Life One X in the future would find this post through Google search.
Here are the steps.
0. From this page (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-official-mados-wiko-fever-clones-t3762800), download the TWRP recovery and the madOS Oreo ROM.
1. Download the BLUEFEVER ROM from this page (https://www.npcglib.org/~stathis/blog/2016/04/13/turned-blu-life-one-x-wiko-fever-4g/).
2. Download the SP Flash Tool from the page above or through Google search. The version I used was 5.1812, which seemed to be the latest version.
3. Download the Universal ROM from this page (https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/flashable-wiko-fever-stock-marshmallow-t3720484)
4. The critical things is you should not flash the Universal ROM as it is, because that bricked my One X. You need to copy "preloader_l5460.bin" and "secro.img" from BLUEFEVER in step 1 and overwrite them to the Universal ROM.
5. You need to install the Mediatek Driver. I used "MT65XX USB VCOM" driver. I found it using Google search, but forgot where I got it from. But with that name, I think you can find it.
6. Now start the Flash Tool, and and select the download agent in the Flash Tool directory (MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin), and select the scatter file in the Universal rom (MMX BLU), and then select "Format all + Download". Then, this is very important, press the download button BEFORE connecting the phone, otherwise it will not work.
7. Now, turn off the phone (I mean, power off, not just screen off) and then connect it to the PC. If the tool does not recognise the phone, press volume up + down at the same time when you connect it until the device connected sound comes from Windows.
8. Now the tool flashs the rom. Wait. It may take a few minutes.
9. If it is bricked, just leave it for a month until the battery drains and completely turns off, and then try flashing again.
10. Now, boot up the phone, go to Settings -> About and hit the build number several times to enable the developer menu.
11. In the developer menu, enable OEM unlocking.
12. Now, install the Google USB Driver. This can be easily found through a Google search. You need to get the "platform-tools" directory of the Android SDK, which can also be easily found.
13. Now, turn off the phone, and hold volume up + power button. The phone shows tiny menu (really tiny...). The first is recovery, the second is fast boot, and the third is normal. Choose fast boot. Type "fastboot oem unlock". You need to press the volume up button on the phone now.
14. Now the phone is unlocked. Type "fastboot.exe flash recovery twrp_wiko_fever_oreo.img" to flash the recovery.
15. Restart in the recovery using the 13th step.
16. Go to Wipe -> Format data and format the data, otherwise the recovery will not recognise the storage and will not boot.
17. Go to Open Gapps and get ARM64, 8.1, micro. Editions above micro will NOT install with an error message that says insufficient storage.
18. Now connect the phone to the PC. The TWRP recovery automatically mounts the storage to the PC so that you can copy files into it. Copy the mad OS rom ZIP from step 0 and the OpenGapps from step 17.
19. Flash the two using the install menu of TWRP.
20. Done.
I do not use One X as a phone, so I skipped the radio flashing steps. It currently shows the baseband is unknown. If you want to use the phone feature, I think you need to flash the radio img or something using the instructions somewhere in the linked posts.

Wanted to install NetHunter on my phone to learn. Here is a story of a foolish student decided to make his life difficult:
Device: OnePlus 6
Model: A6000
Android 10
Here are the steps I followed:
Followed these two documentations:
1) https://www.kali.org/docs/nethunter/installing-nethunter/#1-nethunter-support-and-pre-built-images
2) https://www.kali.org/docs/nethunter/
So downloaded the zip image > put android in developer mode with OEM and advanced reboot and debugging enabled > Fastboot menu
Then I followed this guide for step 3-5 from link 1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-flash-twrp-root-nandroid-efs-backup.3792643/
(a little bit google reading said TWRP takes care of A/B style devices by itself no special steps needed)
Set up the windows machine with fastboot, adb and device drivers > run the command "fastboot oem unlock" > transferred twrp zip to the device internal storage > then flashed the new recovery mode "fastboot boot twrp.img" > install and selected the twrp zip that I had saved in internal storage before > reboot > system.
So far worked perfectly.
Then I downloaded the Magisk apk from github and installed it by transferring it to internal storage.
Next for step 6 from link 1:
I again download the ForceEncrypt disabler from zip and transfer it to internal storage then flash it using TWRP.
So far no errors.
Now the final step should have been to flash the nethunter zip image and this is where the problems started:
I tried to flash it using TWRP but it gave me an error about there not being enough storage.
Saw a YT video where he extracts the nethunter zip and via the magisk app does a install on the tar file found inside the extracted folder. This also failed.
After a bit google it said it was because I did not have custom ROM and chroot and lineageOS should solve my problem.
I flash the LineageOS zip image using TWPR > successful but says I should switch the slot to complete the zip files installed.
After switching and rebooting, fastboot goes to lineage always and its a bootloop , so no matter what I select its always reaching the same screen and I cant tranfer zip to internal anymore to try a different build.
So now I run the command fastboot boot twrp.img again and go back to slot A.
Now my phone is stuck in bootloader. No matter what option I select out of the 4:
Start
Recovery mode
restart bootloader
power off
(latter two work as expected technically)
I always end up on the same screen.
After connecting the phone it is showing it as connected in "fastboot devices" now but fastbood is not able to flash or boot any image to it: either freezes or unknown error. "adb devices" shows no devices.
Practically begging for help right now.
To fix your phone, you should use this recovery tool.

I had the same issue after trying to install nethunter myself. Unfortunately for me the MSMDownload tool wouldn't work because I couldn't get the phone to stay off, it would just boot back up into bootloader/fastboot mode as soon as I connected to the computer via usb cable.
Here's the solution that will work 100%. Go to this website below and download the stock OOS zip file for your phone, in my case it was the Oneplus 6T fastboot ROM. Unpack the files into your platform-tools folder, click skip all if it asks you if you want to replace any files in that folder, then run the flash-all.bat and it will unbrick your device. Keep in mind that it will unroot your device and remove twrp as well. There's a thread here that explains how to do it manually so that doesn't happen but its a bit of work to get it done that way.
