Entering TWRP instead of Recovery Mode (Doogee S60) - General Questions and Answers

Hi There!
I'm exeriencing a wierd problem:
On my rooted Doogee S60, i was able to enter the built in recovery mode (and from there the fastboot mode) with Vol+ and Power.
Since i've installed a twrp recovery.img, pressing Vol+ and Power will launch the TWRP UI (wich i cant use, because my touchscreen is disabled).
Normal boot won't work eighter - i flashed a corrupted system.img file as it looks like (ooops). There is also the message at the Boot Screen saying:
"Orange State - Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted. Your device will boot in 5 seconds"
... although these 5 seconds won't countdown and the device won't boot.
If i enter the TWRP, i can still access the ADB mode. So i can sideload stuff on the device, even the sd card is shown on pc. But the command
adb reboot fastloader
will reboot the phone, but not load the fastloader/fastboot - as it stucks at boot screen (orange state).
Any other ideas to access fastboot, due to flash the recovery.img again with the original to fix?
... or simple question: did i brick it?
thx in advance

Command
Code:
adb reboot fastloader
doesn't exist.

Hi introjoe,
Are you doing? i have the doogee s60 but i just cant root it :'( can you tell me please how did you do it, or the files you use for it? i allready tried but, when i reset and enter fastboot mode, my pc simply dont recognize it.
I want to upgrade the android system to 9 or 10, thats why im doing all o this.
Thanks in advance.

@doryan666
i wasnt able to root the device in the end unfortunately.
i tried using an unofficial twrp, but i was stuck at the main boot screen
i t seems to need some bootloader-activation-code to enter the bootloader to install a new os.
the command line would look like
adb reboot bootloader "CODE"
the activation code has not been released yet by doogee ... and most probably never will be.
sorry to say but i dont think android upgrad will be possible with this device

[Q] Help Revive my Xoom

Hey All,
My Dad's Xoom died over the weekend - 13months after purchase so is not covered by the warranty. He was browsing a site, it came up with a "Internet is not responding - do you want to continue to wait" message and he clicked Wait - after a second the tablet knocked off. It will not come on by pressing Power and only turns on by pressing Power and Vol +
It gets past the Motorolo logo screen and the device starts the boot animation, about 20 seconds into this it freezes and reboots - this continues in a loop. It's been GEDified and was running the last OTA update 4.1.2 - no root etc.
I can get into the stock recovery and performed a factory reset - but the same thing happens. I've also tried Update From USB with an OTG cable but the screen just shows Choose a package to install and under it has /sdcard but nothing else. I have a dummy zip on both the Flash disk and SD card so it's not reading either.
I've also tried to perform update via ADB - when I select it and connect to a PC (Win 7 32bit) it tries to install drivers but I see In Computer Management that it shows under Unknown. ADB Devices returns List of devices message but nothing under it.
I've also selected the fastboot command at boot, tried fastboot devices and the command does see the Xoom.
So my questions
1) Anyone seen anything like this issue before and know how to fix it?
2) Is it best to try to reinstall the ROM? If so, how do you suggest I can see it with ADB?
3) As I have Fastboot command, could I try to install CWM and see if that sees a ZIP on the sdcard - so I can install a new ROM.
Any help much appreciated :good:
so...I've just done a fastboot oem unlock
and then tried to flash the CWM recovery using the fastboot commands - no errors, press reboot and go into Recovery but still getting Android system recovery 3e :crying:

So just to add to this, I found the stock recovery.img, boot.img, userdata.img and system.img and used the fastboot commands to send all to the motorola - all succeeded without error....still the same problem though.
I installed RSD lite and tried a few SBF files but I'm getting an INI error - off to google possible solutions to that now

Bricked Huawei P9 Lite - Stuck in Boot Screen

Hello,
as the title says... I bricked my phone. In the past, I successfully installed LineageOS on my old Galaxy S3. I got a used Huawei P9 Lite recently and wanted to install a custom ROM. Here's what happened:
1. Unlocked the phone
2. Accessed Fastboot mode
3. Installed TWRP* via fastboot flash recovery file.img
4. This didn't work and I read on the web, I could try to flash revocery2 with fastboot flash recovery2 file.img
5. This didn't help either, so I decided to cancel my plan and use the manufactorer's system since the system still booted (of course, I didn't install any custom OS).
6. The phone told me on each startup it's unlocked. I didn't need the unlock anymore, so I accessed the Fastboot mode again.
7. I re-locked the system by using fastboot oem relock password.
8. The phone asked me to do confirm this action and do a factory reset
9. After this, I'm stuck at the Huawei logo and can't access Fastboot mode anymore!
When I shut down the phone, it immediately restarts itself. No chance to get into Fastboot mode again, which I did through pressing Vol- and plugging in an USB cable.
*I tried several versions, 3.0.1 and 3.2.1 since no version worked
This may be a beginner's fault, my last phone was already unlocked and I had not a single problem back then. But this time... I hope you can help me.
What would happen if I let drain the battery down to 0% - the phone wouldn't restart of course. If I press Vol- and plug it in, would I come back to Fastboot mode or would it stay in this loop?
Any help is appreciated!

Guys,
I need help. I'm struggling for the last 3 days trying to revive my phone with no sucess. :crying::crying::crying:
I managed to put a custom rom sucessfully, but i had to make a restore on recovery mode.

Now i can't enter recovery anymore and the phone is froze on the "Sony Xperia" on the begginig.
Since start i'm having difficulty with the Z3 driver for Windows 10. To enter recovery mode i tryed to adb reboot recover but my adb doesn't work.
It's strange..
if i type fastboot devices it's show.
if i type adb devices it's show's "no emulators/xxx found".
I need help, don't know what to do anymore.

You have some choices to restor stock rom:
1) Try Xperia compagnon fron Sony ==> Software repair (not shure about the label in english version)
2) Use flashtool (google for it) and a rom (*.ftf) of your choice.
When you are back to stock, then you can install a custom rom again
HTH

Hey,
Sounds like a corrupted system, not too sure what happened with the recovery though.
Try this out:
1. You need the phone driver and the fastboot & ADB driver. You can get the Sony phone drivers from the Xperia PC Companion. You can get fastboot & adb drivers almost anywhere, just google for them or scroll a bit through xda.
2. Unlock your bootloader if you haven't done so already here.
3. boot into fastboot mode by completely powering off the phone then holding "power+volume up" and waiting until a blue LED appears in the top left.
4. Find a custom recovery, rename it to recovery.img, navigate to the folder that contains it in CMD (i.e. cd C:\Users\USERNAME\Downloads\Android) and type "Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
5.You should now be able to boot into recovery again. All that's left is find a ROM of your liking, push it to the phone in ADB and install it.
Hope this helps!

[ROOT][TWRP] Wiko Sunny 2 (SPD7731C) Root process with TWRP port (buggy touch)

Hi all! Now we can root our Sunny 2 phones!
I'd make a TWRP port for this device (adb enabled) so we can just sideload the Magisk installer.
History:
After some time having a Wiko Sunny 2 phone, I'd search a lot and didn't find any method for rooting this little thing.
Then I had the idea to mod the stock recovery to allow test keys and then flash anything, tried to do that and didn't work.
Another idea came to my mind: port TWRP from another phone with same chipset. Started my search for a SPD7731c device with working TWRP and after some time found some guy who made a TWRP port for his "Selecline S6S4IN3G" device and as it had the same chipset it worked. Just gathered the recovery.img from the stock rom (thanks Wiko for giving it on they web page) and unpacked it with carliv image kitchen, replaced the stock ramdisk with TWRP's one and just modded some things inside it (default.prop and the init.rc files). As the vold.fstab is the same, didn't need to modify it.
After some testing, the only problem remaining is that the touch doesn't work well (it receives touch input all the time, even if not touched) but it's enough to get our Sunny2's rooted via ADB and magisk's zip.
REQUIREMENTS:
A PC (or another phone with OTG support, if you use a phone then you'll also need an adb binary compiled for ARM)
ADB, Fastboot and drivers: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1N38jqQqX87dEKsBIgDb_9MC-k43YUi85
TWRP image: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DZhL6RckvzQyxGCq2Yy64Cqnpnnm1Ofp
Stock recovery image (in case something goes wrong you can revert to this): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1spaFc1sqqjFdwzt9cYDfSO_KVh1aYuh5
Magisk ZIP (can be latest or this zip): https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-OPU1JycSr8nVyAGfdkhdajn8Uap_0dl
ROOT PROCESS:
1. While on Android, go to Settings>About this device and toch 7 times Build number (this will enable Developer Options)
2. Now go back to Settings and then Developer options>Enable OEM unlock and USB debugging.
3. Connect the device to the PC and install the correct driver (for doing this just open Device Manager and force the install of Android Composite ADB Interface on your unrecognized device (should be called SUNNY2)).
4. Open a CMD/Terminal and type this:
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
5. Now type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery path/to/twrp-suny2.img
and after that just
Code:
fastboot reboot
.
6. Now the phone will start, just type in CMD/Terminal
Code:
adb reboot recovery
and you will boot into TWRP.
7. Okay, this TWRP has a buggy touch so just use ADB to install the magisk zip:
Code:
adb shell twrp sideload
, then
Code:
adb sideload path/to/magisk.zip
and finally
Code:
adb reboot
.
8. Nice, now Magisk should be installed. Now with root access, happy modding!
Some things to note:
1) In this guide I did everything via ADB, never booted to recovery or fastboot using button combinations. Why? Simple, on my device I didn't find the correct combinations.
2) You can use TWRP also for factory resetting or installing anything, but via ADB only (as the touch doesn't work properly).
3) If you need any help with this device just PM me!
I hope this guide will be useful for anyone.

Stuck in boot loop
Hi ! Thanks for the HowTo !
But...
I followed the exact same procedure (except I had to fastboot oem unlock before flashing the twrp image, in addition to unlocking it in dev mode).
After flashing, the device was stuck in a boot loop : "orange state your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted / your device will boot in 5 seconds". Tried all manners of key combos to reboot in recovery (Vol Up + power is supposed to be the right combo) but to no avail.
Fortunately Wiko provides an "upgrade" tool that allows you to factory reset the device (support dot wikomobile dot com /maj/Sunny2Plus_V24.zip, window$ only) but no luck installing twrp.
Any idea why ? Thanks in advance

Hmm this device is pretty strange, his key combinations never worked for me (because of that I'd need to reboot into system a few times, instead of booting to fastboot with keys).
You can try this:
After flashing stock rom and allowing oem unlock on settings, reboot directly to fastboot. Then use "fastboot boot recovery.img" and tell me what it says. If it says something about bad boot image, it's normal (that happens in my device even if try to load stock boot.img).
Also there's a tool called SPD Research Download Tool, which let's you flash the phone partitions one by one (manually selectable) from the path you want, while phone is in download mode (volume down and connect USB to PC). However, I don't know if that tool's license allows it's free redistribution, so I recommend research for it before downloading anything.
You can get the stock files by running the wiko upgrade tool, going to the folder it extracted his files and then looking for a file called rom.pac (then unpack it, there are guides here on XDA for doing so). You can even edit the boot splash image lol
Sorry for wasting your time
I'm so stupid ! It turns out my device is a different model, the Sunny 2 Plus.
Sorry, and thanks again
Does anyone know if a custom rom exists for the Wiko Sunny 2?

Nope, sold the device some days after writing this post so didn't even bother to port anything.
BTW it's a 4-core phone with 512MB RAM, so what would you expect to run there? I thing nothing higher than MM (KK would be nice if it was not so outdated nowadays)
Hi, i have got a problem with my wiko sunny 2 plus.
i flashed twrp via fastboot, it succeed. but after reboot the phone didnt start,

P.S. sp flashtool also cant detect device. greets
merci beaucoup j espere sa marche

[LG K52] Please help !! Want to install custom ROM

Hello everybody,
I have a LG K520EMW with Android 10 Stock ROM,
According to Treble Check I have a system supporting system-as-root and a system partition A/B
So I downloaded a GSI from the phhusson's Treble Experimentations
But here are my problems :
- the phone won't boot at all on Fastboot mode (tried adb reboot bootloader, adb reboot-bootloader, both from sideload mode and normal mode, tried plugging the phone when it's off holding vol + or Vol - keys, and using QuickBoot, obviously didn't help because the phone is not rooted)
- the phone won't boot either on Recovery mode, it displays "No Command", i've tried all possible key combinations with vol +, vol -, power, camera, nothing happens and it stays on "No Command",
- Can't root with any tool, I tried KingRoot, KingoRoot, mtk-su
The only door open for me right now is sideload, I know I can type "adb sideload rom.zip" but the issue is I haven't unlocked bootloader, so I don't know what happens if I do this...
I've found nothing on the web about this phone, so if anyone have some informations or knows any procedure on another phone which would be applicable on this model, it would be great
Well, some news, i've figured out a dirty vay to access Fastboot mode, very very dirty :
I've tried, just to see what it does, adb sideload lineageOS-18.1-etc.img, and like a rabbit getting out of a hat, a recovery menu appeared and I could access Fastboot,
Now, I still have to find out why when I try fastboot oem unlock or fastboot oem device-id ( LG official procedure )
I have enabled OEM unlock in debugging options of course
On the Fastboot screen, Bootloader version is unknown,
When I try fastboot boot twrp.img, it answers "Download is not allowed on locked devices"
So, if anyone has an idea, I'd be very grateful
