Hello. I am new to rooting and I wanted to root my old Moto E3 power. But the problem is when I flash TWRP into the recovery it says OKAY and finished then when I try to enter recovery mode my phone just boots up the OS and TWRP is not installed. Please help. Thank you in advance.
Fastboot commands operate on phone's bootloader, not on Android OS as this ADB does.

I know. What i wanted to say was when I do "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" it just says OKAY and finished. As my phone's power button is broken I can't go directly into recovery from there what do I do?? and also thank you for replying.
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot recovery

ok I did that now it says no command on the recovery and no TWRP. Now what?
Reflash phone's Stock ROM to get rid off of all modifications you applied so far.

Hello,
I have followed a tutorial for solving the problem of "Fastboot mode started
udc_start()" from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131247 and something was go wrong.
I have done this steps in the sdk platform tools folder:
1- fastboot erase recovery
2- fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ( here i've got an error)
3- fastboot reboot
Everyting was ok until I have tried to write the .img file on the phone. I've got an error that I don't have enough space. I think I have deleted the recovery file and now it's stuck, because it's not booting. The 4 leds from the bottom it's flashing continuously and the screen remains to the LG logo. I have tried to connect the phone to the PC but the device it's not recognized anymore. I get this message in the adb tool "Waiting for device"
I really appreciate if it's someone that can help me
I have a p500 and I had the exact same problem as you. But I was able to fix it after a lot of Googling.
Can you get to fastboot right now? If so, make sure that the recovery you downloaded is correctly named "recovery.img" and is placed in the same folder as adb.exe is located. After that, type:
Code:
fastboot devices
into ADB. If your device is listed then proceed and type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If nothing comes up when you ask it to list fastboot devices you need to delete all of the drivers associated with your p350, and then reinstall them using a toolkit or PDAnet. Then go back and try fastboot devices again.

No, I can't get to fastboot. I can't do anything with the command line. It remains to the logo screen

Can you pull the battery and then use the combination to get into Fastboot? If you can't get to fastboot, then the problem is beyond what I'm capable of doing.
Though, the problem may be that you completely deleted your recovery.

That is incorrect. The recovery does NOT have to be named recovery to use fastboot to flash it, although it does make life simpler
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
Pretty much I wiped everything from my system and did a reboot. I am unable to boot up recovery mode. Using the "adb devices" command doesn't detect the phone.
If you can fastboot, just flash Fastboot rom. Check out the guide section or search fastboot rom

After flashing a Custom Recovery, If you want to boot to recovery, the actual command through fastboot is
Code:
fastboot boot recovery
or also in the bootloader screen you can press vol+ button untill you see Recovery mode then hit Power button.
The most important point is After flashing a Custom Recovery you must flash the vbmeta with Verity command To make it permanent. Otherwise it'll just revert back to Stock Recovery. (This method only works in Color Os (ie., Android 9), for RealmeUI you need additional thing to do)

Where do we get this vbmeta from? I'm having the same problem, that after flashing twrp.img it just reboots back into fastboot mode. Is this because Secure Boot is enabled and does vbmeta disable that?

After flashing recovery via cmd, you will go back to fastboot on your screen. Navigate the volume buttons til it show Recovery mode on top of the screen. Then press power button and it will boot to recovery.

It turned out the problem was Orangefox. With TWRP it booted into Recovery fine when I selected that option but with Orangefox it would just reboot into fastboot. I'll try some different versions of Orangefox sometime but for now my biggest problem is that it's impossible to set a Lock Screen PIN/Password, let alone use FingerPrint. It seems unlocking the bootloader breaks the security settings.
whats orangefox ? did u found a fix !
I rooted 5i and no use your code. I follow this video
Some code:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery REALME5i.img
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
adb reboot recovery
I was using a gsi image then I decided to go back to stock rom
I used after sales tools made for transsiom devices(infinix, Tecno,Itel)
After it flashed boot and recovery and on getting to super image it showed an error message 'sending failed' this file doesn't match with the one in the device
Now when I try to power on it tells me
Dm verity corrupted
I can't access fastboot nor recovery
If I press power button to continue it remains stuck on boot logo
Please this is urgent
The device is not mine
