I have unlocked bootloader.
I enabled adb debugging from developer settings.
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (tried all of those: peter's, from twrp website, from link on lineageos official thread)
Up to this point everything works fine
3A. fastboot reboot then hold PWR+VOL_UP
3B. Hold PWR+VOL_UP
And at this step I am seeing fastboot logo plus "Unlocked" label at bottom (while in regular fastboot I don't see Unlocked label)
My best guess that something went wrong while booting into twrp, and it fallbacks to fastboot. However I have no clue how to check what's wrong, where to check any logs etc.
Any help appreciated
My advice would be to flash recovery again and manually reboot into recovery and not using fastboot reboot
If this doesnt work flash rom again via bootloader....Then flash recovery....Do Not use fastboot reboot....
Manually holding buttons go into recovery

I have been looking to Root my A510 and drop KitKat on it, but I am stuck trying to install the recovey,img
Steps completed so far:
Bootloader unlocked
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
Obtained the recovery image 6.0.4.5
Loaded recovery image
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery c:\AndroidRootTablet\recovery.img
fastboot reboot (holding volume down)
Just boots up normally... I can get into the stock recovery using adb reboot recovery, but I see no way to add the recovery image...
A510 version is 4.1.2
I probably have this out of order, but I tried to root the tablet first, but that didn't work either. A few questions:
-- Do I need root before installing the recovery.img?
-- What is the current recommendation for rooting the A510?
This is what I tried to use for rooting:
http://theunlockr.com/2013/06/15/how-to-root-the-acer-iconia-tab-a510/
No need to root before flashing a recovery
You have to reboot in recovery directly after flashing it via fastboot and flash the zip "disable stock recovery"
With a JB bootloader you have to : Hold Volume- (**), and when vibrate, release it and hold Volume+(*) until the recovery load
If you reboot in Normal mode, the Acer ROM will erase the recovery.
Check the initial CWM thread with it's installation guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1866378
Could be applied with any version of custom recovery
A510 Updated to KitKat
Thank you sir for you help. That hit the spot. I greatly appreciate the work you are doing with the A510.
Hello! I've tried to root my phone (Moto G XT1541 Europe 1GB) but failed. I got an error when trying to flash the custom recovery. Unfortunately, it has overwritten the stock recovery and it didn't install. So, now I have a phone without recovery and I can't do a factory reset because of that (I think).
So, this is my question: how can I re install the default Android 6.0 recovery mode for my phone?
Also, my phone boots automatically on bootloader mode and I can't re-lock the bootloader because I can't flash anymore either; I got an error because the pre flash validation failed when trying to flash with adb fastboot, but this is minimal issues that doesn't really bother me, but they could be helpful and if someone knows how to get rid of them, I want to know!
I hope someone will help me!

The bootloader cannot be relocked in the Moto G 2015, the best you can do is hide the warning screen. Find the stock image and fastboot flash the recovery from there, or better yet, flash the entire image so you are in a known working state
If you are in Pre-Flash validation, you do not have the correct image for your device... I suggest you post in the "How to flash factory images" thread about returning to stock, if it is possible. You MUST factory default before flashing factory images, if you can't, try 'fastboot erase userdata' and try again.
Flash latest twrp via fastboot and reboot into recovery ,
don't reboot into system,
reboot into recovery manually, then you can enter twrp recovery and can flash supersu 2.62.3.
when you just reboot after flash twrp and reboot system erase custom recovery and save stock recovery, so don't enter fastboot reboot, enter fastboot reboot recovery after flash recovery via pc.
Rename twrp recovery as only twrp in fastboot folder in your pc , not as twrp.img,
But cmd as fastboot flash recovery twrp.img , then no errors ( are you unlocked bootloader ?)

Hey! Thank you! I've been able to flash the TWRP recovery and now I can do a factory reset (and also send sms, which I couldn't do anymore for some reason).
I still have the issue where the bootloader screen appears everytime I turn my phone on, and I still can't re lock my device because I can't flash anything either. I've recovered all of my data, so I think I'm going to stick with that for a moment but maybe I'll try what you said some day.
Again, really thank you for helping me!

Now I understand why my flashing TWRP did not take. I simply rebooted to system and still have stock recovery installed. I was successful booting twrp via fastboot and successfully flashed supersu 2.62.3. Is this step in listed in any faq? I must have missed it.
So after flashing TWRP, do you then power down device prior to manually booting to recovery?

Don't power down, already you are in fastboot mode, you can just enter recovery from that. I forget the reference, but i will search and post.

I get this from twrp official page
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
In our phone press simultaneously volume down + power button to enter recovery.
My Le 1s sucked on boot screen. I already installed TWRP on my mobile. Then downloaded stock rom from http://forum.le.com/in/eui_detail.html?euiid=205. and installed using adb sideload. Everything worked fine. But TWRP not working. Then I flashed TWRP image using adb fastboot. After installed, I used "fastboot reboot" command. But it is not worked. Then I rebooted normally.
After rebooting the device, it automatically go to the recovery mode. Same happen when power on the device. In recovery also TWRP not working. Custom recovery also not showing. After few second, it again going to normal boot. It repeated again and again
Can't use any adb comment on system. What should I try now?
Commant Used:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
Pressed volume up to confirm unlock
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
whenever i try to go into recovery mode, it takes me to the default one even after i flashed twrp. my bootloader is unlocked and i flashed twrp several times. even when i use the command prompt from fastboot mode it still takes me to the default recovery. any ideas to what's wrong?

This could be a solution or a workaround:
"Hello i just had a personal experience with my Asus zenfone selfie Z00T Stock recovery kept replacing TWRP. (Boot loader already unlocked)
This is how i got around it i downloaded the latest TWRP for my device and placed directly in minimal adb and fastboot app folder then i renamed it to recovery .
then i put my device in fastboot mode using the buttons on the phone and After i ran minimal adb and fastboot app as admin then i typed fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
once done i then i typed fastboot boot recovery.img. and my phone booted to twrp recovery then i selected reboot recovery directly on my phone and to finish reboot system (still in twrp) that's it.
(OEM commands to boot from fastboot to recovery do not work on some devices )
it only worked for me eventually because i downloaded the latest TWRP from the official TWRP website.
The idea is to flash the custom recovery and then booting from the custom recovery.img that you just used to flash (the one still on the pc) using minimal adb and fastboot app.
IT may not work on all devices as the commands may change from one device to another but the idea stays the same. (example for nexus fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot recovery.img)
I hope this will help some people out."
sill not booting into twrp

Okay, I was a bit too early with that. The next time I turned off the phone and tried booting to recovery (Vol up+pwr), I got booted into factory recovery (mi-recovery 3.0) :/

Try this:
when you are in fastboot mode type:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This command will boot your phone to twrp. Install twrp .zip file (there are 2 options when installing .img or .zip)
after this go to ADB/Sideload - This is in Advanced section
Then swipe to start a sideload. Now on your pc type:
Code:
adb sideload recovery.zip
This worked for me. I hope this works for you too
Hi guys.
I unlocked my bootloader, and installed the Global Beta Rom via TWRP.
Now, that I am finishing that, TWRP is not installed anymore. And I can't install it.
When I boot into fastboot, and install TWRP like usual, everything is ok. No error appears. But when I want to boot into TWRP via key-combination, nothing happens. When I boot MiUi again, then reboot and try to boot into TWRP again, the Mi-Recoverymenue appears. But not TWRP. Can anyone help here?
After ROM package installed, boot and setup everythings you need, reboot to fastboot mode.
You must install TWRP again, then boot to TWRP by using command, same as the first time you install TWRP. Full commands:
1. fastboot devices.
2. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
3. fastboot boot twrp.img

Done that.
Device reboot, screen turns black. Then device reboot again, and MIUI will start.
After you install TWRP via fastboot command boot into TWRP via fastboot using the TWRP image on your computer. After TWRP comes up disconnect your phone from your computer, go into the TWRP reboot menu and select reboot into recovery. After you boot back into TWRP it should stick until you flash another ROM zip.
Same issue here.....please have a look at attached picture to see what I have done.
Even after a couple of minutes the screen remains black after trying to boot into TWRP.img with "fastboot boot twrp.img"
Is this a wrong command?
OK with rebooting the system is replacing TWRP, mens I need to go directly into TWRP without rebooting OS., but neither the command above nor ´"fastboot reboot" and simultaniously holding Vol+ and Power ware entering TWRP .....even more
Entering "fastboot reboot" afterwards, device is rebooting normally.
Would be great to explain how I can successfully get TWRP run.
Thx a lot!!
MIUI overwrites the recovery with each boot.
You'll have to get root access and adjust s few files (there is a guide somewhere here on xda) to get it to stay
