@Dees_Troy the last working recovery was 2.8.0.1

It still is the latest working version of TWRP for our device Xperia T (mint).
I tried 2.8.1.0, 2.8.3.0 and 2.8.4.0 when flashed these versions I can't boot into recovery and it keeps bootlooping the recovery.
I can boot into system without problem, the only solution to get into recovery again is by flashing the latest working 2.8.0.1 again into the FOTA kernel.
Already contact teamwin to let them know that there is something wrong with building TWRP from 2.8.0.1 and further, but still no luck on a reply.

Like you can see in my previous comment you need to download the TWRP version 2.8.0.1 because that is the only version that is working for now.
You can do this easily with installing the app: TWRP Manager (ROOT) findable in play store and then use a theme for TWRP and you have a splendid recovery.
Theme is findable: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/theme-twrp-materialised-dark-light-play-t2915584
TWRP is the best recovery I've tested so far, except the latest version wont work for the moment on our Xperia T.

TeamWin for the WIN! The new version 2.8.5.0 that yesterday made available for our Xperia T is working without a problem! I just flashed the new .img on my FOTA kernel and could boot into recovery.
I updated the old zip to the latest version and attached it to my post.

problem flashing gapps 5
i flashed CM12 on my xperia T using the recovery mod that came in the boot.img inside the cm12 build, and then the GApps 5
everything was fine except for a small bug in which some apps couldn't detect the sd
i decided to do a clean install, but this time i installed TWRP and performed the data wipe/factory reset and flash using it
i got the TWRP manager, and installed the version 2.8.5.0
i booted into recovery, wiped data, flashed cm12, reboot into system, reboot into recovery, flashed gapps, wipe dalvik/cache, reboot into system and the GApps keep crashing all the time.
I tried all the GApps available, the 5 packages of PA GApps, and all the basket team GApps 5 i could find and all crash
i decided to flash cm11 and GApps 4 and it works perfectly, and if i flash CM12 itself the system works, it's the gapps that have problems
it must be a recovery mod problem then

Why i can't install any lollipop rom on mint
my recovery is Twrp 2.8.5..0

Hello to everyone, can anyone tell me how to install the twrp, I'm new with xperia and Idon'thave any idea of how is it going, I had samusng and motorola and was so easy. But there I heard "adb shell", "FOTAKernel", thing that make me confused.. On samusng there is a Odin tool, and on XPERIA -Flashtool? The phone is XPERIA T (LT30P), is rooted with bootloader unlocked.

You should read the threads about installing custom recoveries and rooting in the general section.
TWRP 2.7.1.1 is wayyy to old, you should use TWRP 3.0.0.0 when you're flashing things in marshmallow.
And you should give more info, which version of superSU did you flash?
There is only one beta version which is able to root marshmallow without a modified Boot.img, it's BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.

Flash twrp 3.0.0.0 ( https://dl.twrp.me/titan/ )and then the BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651, you can try to flash the beta superSU above with your old recovery but it's not recommended. Your choice but then change recovery afterwards.

Ok thanks, I did actually find out twrp was an old version so I flashed a lollipop 5.0.2 Titan rom to escape the bootloop, then rooted with Kingroot(I was lazy to install SuperSU) then installed the latest version of twrp.
It's actually my first time attempting rooting and unlocking the bootloader, so yea at least I learned something from this. :good:

Good to hear that you fixed your problem. One thing: Don't use Kingroot.
It's a very unstable way to root your device and a suspicious app.
Just flash superSU, it's stable and easy to do and it doesn't send data to unknown sources. Just an advice.

OP3T Stuck in TWRP after flashing LineageOS

Hello out there,
my problem is a bit annoying. Everything is fine if I use my OP3T with Oxygen (4.0.3) and TWRP (3.0.3-1). But I want to use LineageOS with TWRP and cant, because my TWRP isnt working after flashing lineage.
"Normal"-Setup:
- TWRP 3.0.3-1
- Oxygen 4.0.2 or 4.0.3 (doesn't matter)
- supersu 2.79
- Encrypted Device
"Lineage"-Setup:
- TWRP 3.0.3-1
- lineageOS (lineage-14.1-20170214-nightly-oneplus3-signed.zip OR lineage-14.1-20170208-nightly-oneplus3-signed.zip - tried both, doesnt matter)
- supersu 2.79
- openGApps for 7.1 nano
- Encrypted Device
My Problem is, that I can boot up lineage and use it, but if I reboot into my TWRP to flash something or make some Backups, it asks for my encryption-passphrase, it says it is okay and boots into the twrp main-windows. After that I can't touch anything (stuck in mainmenu) and after a few seconds it results into a black screen (plus white LED) and I am forced to reboot the device. After that reboot I have to reconfigure lineage (seems to loose data).
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this annoying "bug"?
Thank you very much!
Atomique
EDIT: I found that Thread after searching for a issue like that in the lineageOS official Thread - I will try this and report! - Thank you! https://forum.xda-developers.com/on.../recovery-official-twrp-oneplus-3-3t-t3543391
I had the exact same problem when I hab LineageOS installed! It would always lose all its data. After flashing and reflashing a hundred times, I ended up reverting my OP3T back to stock using a OnePlus forum guide (I'm a new user, so I can't post the link). I am now back to OOS 4.0.3 but can't even get SuperSU to work. Whenever I flash it (with or without the dm-verity fix) the phone is stuck booting forever.
I found the post you linked to aswell but haven't tried flashing LineageOS using the new TWRP. But I can tell that the new version doesn't help rooting OOS...
Did you have any luck flashing LineageOS by now?
Edit: With the newest Lineage Version I always get an error when trying to flash it. Do you have the same problem? The nightly from two weeks ago seems to work better.
Use latest TWRP 3.0.4.1

That's what I'm doing... Could the dm-verity be a problem? There are two versions, one with opt and one with force in the name.
Thank you for your replies! The link (TWRP 3.0.4-1) worked like a charme!
@Tafelbomber: I would recommend you to start from scratch. But please be warned: you will loose your data! Make a backup first!
1. Delete everything with fastboot -w
2. Flash the recovery noted in my first post with fastboot flash recovery <twrp-filename.img>
3. Optional: Restart into the TWRP and flash the OOS 4.0.3 to make sure that you have a clean OS installed befor flashing lineage
4. Flash lineage OS + additional ZIPs (like supersu, betterbatterystats, Gapps etc)
5. Clean Dalvik and Cache!
6. Reboot and have fun. --> Sometimes you get problems with the encryption chain (Red Error --> in my case the fastboot -w did it for me)
Good luck - I will close this thread - thanks again for your help!

[C6903] - cant run new NOUGAT custom roms - bootanimation 2-3 sec and phone turns off

At the beginning, please forgive me the quality of my English.
Me and other friends using c6903 have posted on the forum about trouble with running Nougat ROMs:
- [ROM][7.1.X][27/07/17][STOCK-CAMERA][3.4 KERNEL][TESTING] LineageOS 14.1 - UNOFFICIAL
- [ROM] [7.1.2] [OMS] [OFFICIAL] [Honami] Resurrection Remix Nougat v5.8.3 [01/08/2017]
- [ROM] [7.1.2] [Substratum/OMS] [UNOFFICIAL] [Honami] Android Ice Cold Project 12.1
For example LinageOS 14.1.
I flashed build from 11/07 without any problems.
Everythings worked fine, but when i try to flash newest build I encountered a big problem.
Bootanimation continues 2-3 sec. and phone turn off [check plz video].
Then only the launch button was active.
Everything I do exactly the same as in 11/07 build.
Why rom can't run?
The situation applies to all the above versions.
Resurrection Remix Nougat from 28/06 booted fine too.
Newer versions not...
One of friends - MIcHiJK - suggested that this could be a problem with changing the screen for "fake".
Me and him changed screens probably for counterfeiting.
Maybe someone else did it and have this problem?
....but why build from 11/07 (LinageOS), 26/08 (RR) and 20/06 (ACIP) booted without any problems?? In my case change screen was earlier.
What have I done so far to solve the problem.
- used TWRP 3.0.0 and 3.0.2
- Always full wiped (a few times format internal storage using twrp too)
- flashed roms when using Cyanogenmod 12.1
- flashed roms when using stock .236
- restored software using EMMa and Flashtool, then root (kingroot), flashed twrp by fastboot, full wipe, flash rom - without result
- used others kernels referenced by creators roms (flashed after installation rom).
Nothing worked.
I know I'm not alone. Many guys have problem like me.
Is anyone able to give a solution?
May God bless guy which will solve our problems!

Hello to all ppl which had this problem.
Since I replace my broken original xperia z1 Display, I wasn´t able to boot any of the new Nougat rom releases.
I solved this problem with a new Kernel.
Super Lamic Posted this Kernel to test the Battery Life but with this Kernel the problem was solved and I was able to run the new Releases on my fake Display.
Kernel Link: https://mega.nz/#!RN1nFYRT!546WMDdM2ToJEeZlleKTjS-TdR54rkYiOGKUDDWQ-t0
Install new LineageOS build on your xperia z1 with TWRP 3.1 (with 3.0 it wasnt able to install the boot.img).
Before you reboot select images, boot and flash the boot.img.
Then the new build should run without problems.
On other roms like Resurrection Remix it endet in invinite boot so I was just able to run normal Lineage.
I hope it helped someone. Im still interested what the devs changed that causes this problem. And I hope there will be improvments in future that this problem wont happen anymore.
same problem for me like OP. Would be interesting whats the reason for this behaviour that some nougat roms don't run on phones with replaced display. for me some still run, but then i have the problem that recovery is not available.
For those wo will flash AICP maybe this solution will work in RR too.
In normal Lineage it worked when i flashed cm12.1 Nouagt Kernel after flashing LOS 14.1.
But for RR or AICP it ended in infinite boot. Here is how I managed to get it work.
1. Download AICP (Latest Version [2017/08/01]) then download AICP (Version 2017/06/20).
2. Delete 'boot.img' from the Latest Version zip and put the 'boot.img' from the older relase into the Latest
3. Boot into TWRP 3.1 or 3.0, Wipe all and flash your Latest AICP zip with the older boot.img.
4. Boot phone. The z1 will show you just the Sony Logo. I waited some Minutes and powered off with power + volume up.
5. Connect phone in fastboot mode on PC and flashed cm12.1 Nougat Kernel.
6. Type 'Fastboot Reboot', the phone Turns on with the newer Boot screen where xperia stands on the bottom. You will finally see AICP Boot Animation and after some time rom boots.

Just Install Recovery via Fastboot. If you dont know how to do this you need to set up android sdk. You will find many tutorials in the internet.

How did you installed the rom?
From which rom you came and which recovery did you used and how did you installed the recover?
different ways, but mostly with my standard custom-rom Tesla which is on Android 5.1.1. TWRP is on 3.1 which i install via cmd (fastboot flash recovery) cause build in recovery of tesla is broken.
Or i go over latest stock with dualrecovery, flash boot.img of the custom-rom (wich work) and then flash rom. but still recovery is gone after that.
@Aaskereija
I can tell you how I installed. I never lost my recovery. I came from xproject rom and I had nuts dual recovery. I flashed via fastboot advanced kernel, rebooted directly into inbuild TWRP 3.1, wiped all and flashed nougat rom. I had no recover so I flashed via fastboot official TWRP 3.0 and now I have a recovery. Since I installed TWRP one Time i never done it again. Everytime I flash a new rom it's still there. Maybe you try some different ways to install a nougat rom cuz it should work we all have the same device. Another question. Can you give me link to TWRP 3.1 for honami. I can't find TWRP 3.1 for z1 I used it just with advanced kernel. I just can find official TWRP on the internet witch is outdated
Guys, you don't have to create threads for this. I'll have an aftermarket display too, so I'll be forced to fix it anyway. And I have an idea what can be wrong...

Android Sdk put twrp.img in platform tools folder then open CMD in this foder, fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img.
I asked about twrp cuz in advanced kernel is TWRP 3.1 inbuild but I can't find just the twrp 3.1 IMG without kernel. Strange.

[BETA] TWRP 3.1.1 for Mi A1

Hey,
TWRP 3.1.1 Touch Recovery beta version is released for Xiaomi Mi A1.
Download - Go to downloads tab
Update:
1. Magisk v13.4 is working fine.
Workaround for Xposed:
Xposed is not installing through TWRP and when tried with App, still it's giving errors. So below is the temporary solution till we get a permanent one.
1. Don't flash TWRP. Just boot into it from bootloader by using command - fastboot boot recovery_name.img
2. Flash latest SuperSU zip.
3. Reboot to System.
4. Your phone will be rooted now and install Xposed through app.
Important:
1. Don't flash it, just boot into it.
2. If flashed, re-flash the latest stock boot image.
Instructions:
1. Download the twrp image and twrp installer zip
2. fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-tissot-beta.img
3. Flash twrp-installer-tissot-3.1.1.zip
4. Reboot to recovery
Flash Magisk v13.4 built for Pixel devices by @Goodwin_c. Available in the downloads tab.
Issues:
1. Flashing SuperSU will break TWRP. SuperSU will work, but TWRP will be gone.
2. Xposed won't flash without modification.
Future update:
1. Make TWRP and SuperSU to co-exist
2. Compatibility with Xposed and Latest Magisk
Disclaimer:
We are not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone as a result of installing custom recoveries, roms and/or kernels. you do so at your own risk and take the responsibility upon yourself.

I could see in Pixel forums about flashing twrp. It has options to back up a, b partitions or even both. Atm no access to computer, will need to check whether urs allow us the same.

Surprise!!!
Booted TWRP? But isn't temporary? Sad ?.
But don't worry, I have created a zip, ahh actually ported a zip ?, to flash TWRP permanently ?.
But please do note that I haven't tested this personally yet, as I'm in a bus, traveling right now.
But if guys have guts, then go ahead, & try this, & please report back .
Instructions:
Boot TWRP & just flash this zip from TWRP. That's all...

Hi!
I just want to post my experiences so far.
TWRP booted up fine, also backup and MTP works.
I tried flashing magisk v14.2, which's installer told me the B slot is currenly active etc. Flashed without any problem. But rebooting the device I got bootloop.
Restoring the boot image from the backup made the device back to booting state.

Somehow Magisk is not yet working in Mi A1. Either flashed through recovery or other method, getting bootloop and other issues.

Can't access twrp 3.4.0.1, H870

Hello,
I've installed twrp 3.4.0.1 via fastboot, but after I select yes when i'm asked about erasing my data, the phone just boot up normally without deleting any of my data, but does not enter twrp either. Tried 3.4.0.0 too, no luck. Only 3.3.1.0 worked, but when I try to backup it says something like 'can't mount system partition' and some other errors. I think that version is too old for my rom, so I'm afraid to use it for backup/flash. My phone is LG G6 H870, Android 9, software version V30b. The phone is not rooted, the bootloader is unlocked. Tried to erase cache partition and install twrp 3.4.01 again, didn't work. I can't install Skyhawk or Orangefox becuase I can't use twrp.
Is anybody facing this problem too?
Thanks!
Bootloader unlocked?

Hello,
I've installed twrp 3.4.0.1 via fastboot, but after I select yes when i'm asked about erasing my data, the phone just boot up normally. Tried 3.4.0.0 too, no luck. Only 3.3.1.0 worked, but when I try to backup it says something like 'can't mount system partition', I think that version is too old for my rom. My phone is LG G6 H870, Android 9, software version V30b. My phone is not rooted.

HI You need to use OrangeFox recovery or SkyHawk. If you plan to go to 10, then you need SkyHawk. And I think SkyHawk is maintained but OrangeFox not.

So can I install SkyHawk via fastboot over stock recovery without installing twrp beforehand? I see there are multiple files in the shyhawk zip, should I only extract the recovery img and install it via fastboot? I'm kinda new to this, thanks!

HI. It is made to flash in TWRP (same as OrangFox) So I really don't know if that recovery.img flashing through Fastboot works. Never tried, sorry.
Maybe someone knows though.

Ok, thanks, I'll try to find a solution, or maybe I'll just wait for the next version of twrp.
You should try installing the recovery and immediately installing any custom rom, when i flashed twrp the first time i had to do it several times cause somehow it got "erased" every time i noot the stock OS.
Ig you don't want to install a custom rom try right after installing twrp and on the fastboot screen to reboot to recovery with (Volume - ) button and power.
I think the idea is not letting the Stock os boot
Also that error. i have the same problem, the only moment it doesn't appear is when you wipe all data with the "Format Data" option inside "Wipe" menu in twrp.
After you boot to the OS once and go back to recovery it will come again everytime you flash something.
Not sure if its a problem or not, because i've dirty installed some updates and also installed gapps and magisk even with that error.
Im currently in A10 using Havoc and NikGapps.
TWRP 3.2.3-0

Yes, I know I have to install twrp again every time I let the stock rom boot, but the only version of twrp working is 3.2.3 and I think that was released before the G6 received official Android 9 update, so that's why I'm not very confident using it. I've tried to enter recovery immediately after I've installed it, so I don't think that's the problem.
I have the same problem on the LG G6 H870. I won't get to TWRP. I tried several versions of TWRP and nothing.
Edit.
This twrp is functional:

After installation using fastboot, restart directly to twrp using power+vol. down.
Finally i've successfully flashed Skyhawk using TWRP 3.3.1, so thanks everyone for advice!
Still couldn't make official TWRP 3.4.0/3.4.0.1 work.

Hi, I don't know if this goes here, I hope you can help me, I update twrp from version 3.1 to 3.4 and now I can't access twrp, how can I fix it?
Hello again, I answer myself, and if it helps someone else, using adb fastboot with twrp 3.2 Melina solves it and twrp works perfectly again.
