TWRP .img - General Questions and Answers

I am currently trying to download the .img for a Motorola g7 power TWRP on my windows 10. After downloading the file WinZip attempts to open the file and says "WinZip cannot open this file since the image is not ISO. I am curious what app should be used in order for me to open the .img in order to open it with adb to flash it to the phone. Thank you. When I try to move the WinZip .img file it will not allow me to put it into my adb folder.

You're supposed to flash the img to the phone via adb, not it's content. Flashing in itself is decompressing an img file and moving the files into your root folder. So you're not supposed to open up the TWRP.img file, you're supposed to put it as it is in your adb folder, plug your phone (with USB Debugging enabled), "adb reboot bootloader", "fastboot flash TWRP.img" and there you go
Have a good day

Thank you for the help. The problem now is my Moto G7 power is in bootloader mode and unlocked but fastboot is not recognizing it under "fastboot devices". The correct drivers are installed for the phone and the fastboot is on the screen so I cannot figure out why it isn't being recognized.

That's a different issue, is it recognized with ADB ?

No, I figured out the drivers are not installed properly so I'll have to go back to Motorola website and figure out why the MDM isn't working correct.

You may have the driver's correctly installed but Windowsay not ne selecting the correct driver when you connect your device. You will have to go to Device Manager, boot your device to fastboot, connect your device, right click on the driver for your phone, select update driver, then choose to select drivers from files already on your computer, continue choosing the options that allow selecting the driver from drivers already on your PC, when you get to where it finally shows a list of drivers, you will be looking for "android bootloader interface".

Boot to recovery, then on your PC, download and unzip the Naked Drivers.
Plug your tablet into the PC. It should find new hardware. Go to the Device Manager (through Control Panel - System) and look for your device. It may show up as an Android or Asus ADB device, or unknown hardware. Right click on it and update driver. Pick the driver (browse to it, do not let it scan) where you put the naked drivers. This should install a good working ADB driver.
Once that is complete, you will need to get a copy of ADB. It is in the Android SDK, but if you only need ADB, you can get it from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955627 It also has some help on getting ADB working.
Once you get ADB downloaded, put the exe in a folder named c:\adb\.
Next, open a command prompt and type cd c:\adb followed by adb devices
At this point, it should restart adb (it may error out and say the daemon failed to start, just execute the adb devices command again) and show a recovery device connected.
Now, you need the ROM you want to flash. Download this and put it in the c:\adb folder. I am going to call it ROM.zip.
From the command prompt type adb push ROM.zip /sdcard/
It will then push the file ROM.zip to your tablet.
From this point, you should be able to go to your recovery on your tablet and Install ZIP from SDCard and then it should show the file you just pushed to your /sdcard/.
Tnx dude.
I try.

[Q] Nexus 5 uninstalling Cyanogenmod problem

I'm trying to uninstall Cyanogenmod 11 from my Nexus 5, but I'm very confused right now.
I have downloaded the Factory image (Headhammer-ktu84p) and the SDK manager (and installed USB driver, SDK tools and so on). My phone is in developer mode, and debugging is on. Both fastboot driver and original driver is installed.
I took my factory image folder and placed it inside the android-sdk/platform-tools folder.
Now, I can't get what to do. Some tutorials tell me to run flash-all, but it gives me this error:
"Fastboot is not recognized as an internal or external command."
Other tutorials tell me to run fastboot.exe inside platform-tools, but it all it does is giving me different commands to try out.
I'm very confused, and don't have a clue what to do. Don't feel like any tutorials are working. Can somebody please help me?
What i did
I extracted all 6 files of the factory image directly into platform-tools folder
Then i connect my phone wid usb debugging enabled..
Go into platform-tools folder
Shift+right click
Open command prompt here
Now type
Adb reboot bootloader
Once phone boots into bootloader
Just double click on flashall

So, that resolution didn't solve my problem either.
I'm unable to instal the fastboot on my phone.
The problem is that Cyanogenmod has changed my "Recovery mode" and I just can edit some things through the "adb" commands. I don't have any possibilities to install things by the "flash" commands. And nothing about that icons like "flash-all.bat" is helping me to have my Android back or install the fastboot.
What can I do?
Make sure fastboot.exe file is inside the factory image folder. and drivers are installed. Then rebot phone into bootloader, by holding power and Volume down buttons. It will show you android image with open belly and some text on the bottom. Open CMD by holsing shift and rigth click on empty space in factory image folder.
Execute these commands:
Fastboot devices (If it will show up in CMD as connected, proceed)
Fastboot flash radio radio.img (file name may vary)
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img (File name may vary)
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update (Here drag the zip file with factory image. the one that was in folder woth bootlaoder and radio images)
Fastboot reboot
That's it. To restore it to full stock, run command fastboot oem lock afterwards.
If i helped press that thanks button
Try using wugfresh nrt as well.

Please help , Stuck on Loading Screen.

I try to hard reset but I'm still stuck on loading screen. How do I add a zip file to my sd so I can flash it, since it doesn't even detect my oneplus on my computer? Please help me and lend me your knowledge and power =].
Can you boot in bootloader and connect it through adb and fastboo with your pc? in that case it would be easy to reflash everything
I can boot into fastboot and TWRP but I'm wondering how can I add file into my internal hard drive since it doesnt detect the phone on my computer?
Any help with some instructions would be really nice =] :good:
Do you see it using "adb devices" or "fastboot devices" ?
If not, you must update your adb drivers on your computer and reboot it
right now its on MTP USB Device as my device on my Device Manager, can you link me to the proper usb driver? Because I"m pretty sure I updated it and it was working while my phone is working. Also how can I check if its using adb devices?

Also it said "Windows has determined the driver software for your device is up to date" but doesnt detect my phone?
Anyone still here so they can help me?
So as asked previously, when you connect via fastboot, and boot it into TWRP, do you see it via adb ("adb devices" command in the platform-tools folder)? Did you try adb push <filename> /sdcard/ ?
yes i see adb push , but there's no file there. How can i add file there?

Use an adb push command to send a ROM zip to your phone.
Transmitted via Bacon
@M I N E, go read the sticky posts in the general section. It will explain how to do an adb push command.
@timmaaa and others have done a great job with some write ups for this device.

Or do a factory wipe then go into TWRP -> Advanced -> ADB Sideload -> Swipe
adb sideload <name-of.zip>.zip (ensure the .zip is in the same folder as your fastboot/adb) and then it'll send the zip over to the phone and flash.
I prefer the adb sideload method as it pretty much pushes the file over to the phone and then flashes it afterwards.
Either method is fine though.
If OP has problems with drivers, I recommend using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386956 they work great.
what is the push load command? How can i push something if i dont have any file on my phone to flash? can you guys type out the command?

Read the post above you that I posted. Use that command as well as the instructions and you can flash a file using adb sideload.

You're not reading my message properly. I'm telling you to do adb sideload. Please read what I said carefully word-by-word.

The whole point of adb sideload is that you're sideloading a flashable zip that is not on your phone but on your computer and you're pushing the file onto your phone which will followup with flashing the zip.
You need to be typing adb sideload on your computer with the proper environment for adb set up with the proper drivers installed if you haven't already.

Wiped EVERYTHING by Mistake NEED HELP

Accidentally wiped everything using TWRP and have no OS now. Can't use ADB or fastboot as when I boot to it it says device not found. Any suggestions PLEASE?
Is it a driver issue? You have to get the drivers loaded or you may be stuck. What steps have you taken so far.
I had this happen to me as well on another device but I loaded up drivers and then used adb to push files back over on a N4

Basically all you can do there is re-install the drivers, cause it seems they're non-existent or incorrect.
-reload the drivers [force them perhaps if on win 7]
-connect to pc with phone in fastboot
-in twrp go to advanced > sideload > start process
-add your rom to your adb folder
open a command window in your adb folder [shift + right click for short] then type adb sideload myfile.zip , and the phone will flash the file, and you can reboot.

Let me help you
0. do not enable adb sideload inside twrp
1. look up your directory where adb is
2. open command window there (right click on folder or inside folder -> open command window here)
3. put your files inside the very same directory (for example rom.zip)
4. adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip
5. flash

Doesn't matter at all.

Or - buy an USB otg Cable and you can use USB flash disks

I got it to work! I actually did the ADB sideload in TWRP but used your command prompts. THANK YOU
Same thing but...
It is awesome you got your's to work! I have the exact same problem but my usb port isn't working I believe. Over multiple pc's and usb cables I keep getting UNKNOWN USB DEVICE. I went into a repair shop today and got a different port but then the screen wouldn't turn on so they put my old port back in. The LED light did flash so I'm wondering if I'd be better off getting the new USB port then worrying about the screen later. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
It help me a lot
The trick was not enabling adb sideload in twrp. Thank you for the info. I almost bought a new phone.
Of course. Read posts m8
