Are you on 12B? I don't think the official TWRP is Loki patched for 12B. I patched one to work on both 11A and 12B if you want the link. I've read you can also just extract the recovery IMG from the zip and flash it with Flashify if you wanna try that.

Yep I'm on 12b can I have a Link plz thank you for your help

I got 2.7 by using this recovery image Flashify method about two weeks ago. I haven't had any issues and have been TWRPin as usual.

I used Flashify too and have no issues.

Flashing is fine but I read with my other devices that backups from previous versions of TWRP may not work properly.

2.6.3.3 backups won't work on 2.7 and vice versa
Sent from my VS980 4G

I love TWRP 2.7.0.0 due to the vibrating feedback and the correct date imprint on backup names.

I'm on VS98012B. Had TWRP 2.6.3.3. Needed to update to TWRP 2.7 to move up to KK. I tried dd flashing the 2.7 from TWRP site. Now some error (too quick to see) comes up and shuts the phone off. Tried flashing with dd this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51173763&postcount=4 and got the same error. Tried Flashify and it won't load the image file and when I go to the backup tab it says I have TWRP 2.6.3.3 installed. Any ideas how I can get a custom recovery installed? I'm pretty much dead in the water...

You have 2.6.3.3 installed now right? If so just flashing mine in recovery will work fine. No need to dd them, probably wouldn't work anyway because in order to to change images in the ramdisk, I have to un-Loki them. Loki'd images can't be unpacked. So after I make changes, I repack and place them in a zip with a Loki patch that works on 11a or 12b. So mine are just to be flashed in recovery.

I think that's because you tried to flash an unloki'd image. Try flashing this one with Flashify https://www.dropbox.com/s/meddqewk6muv8p5/twrp.img. Its preloki'd and version 2.6.3.3 or.4, if it works you can just flash any of the ones from my thread in recovery to update to 2.7. There's a stock on there too if you don't want a themed one.

Try wiping app data on Flashify. And make sure its granted root access.
If all else fails you can try to dd the twrp.img I linked. I don't get why Flashify isn't working though. I've never had that issue. I had someone in my S3 thread that kept having Flashify issues. He used this app and it worked. You could try it too https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools

You can root 12b with ioroot19. Bootloader is locked so use freegee to install twrp recovery.

why are people answering such an old question? I've had it rooted, modded, and have installed cyanogenmod plenty of times since this question was posted back in january

Because once the KitKat OTA goes live by VZ (could happen, right?), there would be no way to get on the 12B bootstack (no TOT or KDZ). Right now it seems that most of the devs work with the OTA leak will involve the 12B bootstack. You can always go back to 10b or 11a through the tot method. You might not be able to go back if you take an official VZ KitKat update (could happen right??)
Idk maybe I'm wrong. Just my FUD.

Help installing TWRP 2.7 on new G2 with 12B

I have downloaded a TWRP 2.7 flashable zip. The official instructions on the TWRP site talk about using a .img file, but they don't have a 2.7 img for vs980.
Many threads mention some images are Lokified, others are not, I'm not sure how to install.
This is a new G2 with 12B that I'm going to root with IORoot 25, how can I get TWRP installed on it as well, preferably in same adb session?
Thanks
Is this the right way?
flash older 2.6.3.2 img using Flashify
reboot into recovery
flash 2.7 zip
Is there a faster way to do this?
Can someone please help?

Root with ioroot
Flashify has its own download section, I would download the .IMG file in the app, just to make sure you have the correct one.
Follow directions in flashify.
I just did this with cwm and it worked, it might have the latest twrp to flash in the app.

If you just want the easiest method, do this:
Extract twrp.lok from this thread. (first download twrp.zip...the .lok file is in there) Rename the extension to img. Flash that with flashify. Then flash this in recovery. You should now be on twrp 2.7 loki'd for 12b. :good:
Credit for that procedure goes to JRJ442...i just explained his steps from here.

Will this method work if I already have TWRP 2.6.3.3? My goal is: get to TWRP 2.7 but tried to go into TWRP and flash the "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-vs980.zip", it tells me I can't because it can't find "/tmp/loki.sh" (couldn't capture exact message). Currently I'm on 12B.

Yeah the official that you tried doesn't have the correct Loki patch for 12B. Thats why it throws that message. All the ones I made for VS980 are patched to work on 11A or 12B. Just click on "This" a few posts up. That goes to my Dropbox. The zip is Stock-TWRP2.7-VS980. Just flash in recovery, then reboot recovery and it'll be 2.7
Or if you have Flashify you can download and install 2.7 through that.
These one click tools worked for me. I went from 12b + stock recovery to twrp 2.7 with just a few clicks. I used it yesterday. Thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2713954

As far as I could see that latest AUTORec.apk installation is now included with TWRP already. After rooted my phone, installed AUTOREC, grant root and flashing customer recovery image straight aways, I could flash some ZIP file but not those ROM such VS98011A, VS98024A, VS98026A, etc all return FAIL - Can't Read Zip file. But I from AutoREC recovery menu, I could install Spirit ROM.zip and others.
Why only those stock ROM in zip format are FAIL to be flashed from within AUTOREC/TWRP ????

Autorec flashes TWRP, that's it, once in recovery you're just using TWRP. You can delete Autorec from your phone after you're done flashing TWRP. Anyway, you can't install stock releases via TWRP unless a dev modifies one to be flashed. Care to point to one of the zip's you're trying to flash?

Correct, AutoRec comes with 2.7.0.0. I tried upgrading Twrp by flashing the latest Twrp zip and it failed. I guess it's just my device. I looked for the 2.8.1.0. Img file but couldn't find it.

@wrecklesswun, here you go. --> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B15sKU9JEz4CbHRzVVZvRFdRUGM/view?usp=sharing
You can restore it by putting the file on the root of your sd card and using a root shell. And entering.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilestock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p36
OR
If youre lazy as long as you have adb installed you can download this extract it and click RunMe. It will restore stock recovery and then reboot you into recovery.

You can build TWRP for the Turbo and flash it all day. Wouldn't work though as it fails the signature checks from the boot loader. You need an unlocked boot loader for a custom recovery to work.

That's what I thought and was just confused why someone else said we could flash. *Shrug* is use my Turbo as a daily driver so I can't poke at it any like I did the DNA when we got that unlocked.

No TWRP cannot be used. As I stated above.

You can build TWRP for the Turbo and flash it all day. Wouldn't work though as it fails the signature checks from the boot loader. You need an unlocked boot loader for a custom recovery to work.

What exactly worked on a bootloader locked Turbo?
Please elaborate?
You must mean stock recovery ☺

@aviwdoowks, yes exactly. He needed to restore the stock recovery on his turbo. Even with WP on as long as you're root you can dd an image to any partition other than system. I simply packaged shell, su request and dd commands into an executable bat file that flashed stock recovery.

You can restore it by putting the file on the root of your sd card and using a root shell. And entering.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilestock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p36
OR
If youre lazy as long as you have adb installed you can download this extract it and click RunMe. It will restore stock recovery and then reboot you into recovery.

Harry,
You wouldn't still happen to have the Droid Turbo XT1254 stock recovery, would you?

You can find it in the full firmware package here: http://rootjunkysdl.com/getdownload.php?file=Droid Turbo/Firmware/VRZ_XT1254_SU4TL-44_44_CFC.xml.zip
Flash it using fastboot with the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Do you have any working rom installed on your phone? If not then there is nothing to root hence the root permission problem. Did you erased the cache and rebooted the bootloader after flashing a recover (before attempting to boot it)? Where are you downloading your twrp version from? Have you tried mdmower's twrp?

If there is no functional rom on your phone now then there is nothing to root so you can stop bothering with that for now. Flash your recovery using fastboot and try mdmower's twrp, I've seen many cases where mdmower's version flashed fine but not the official version.
Sometimes deleting the .twrps file from /sdcard can also help fix a non booting recovery.
You could also try CWM recovery
