Yes installation by fastboot

Thanks a lot and wonderful job

so is this better than the clockwork recovery?
will this overwrite clockwork recovery if I already have that installed?
and the most important question:
DOES THIS WORK WITH PS3 JAILBREAK? I heard someone did it with this recovery, I want this to happen with the GT540!!!

I had clockwork now i have amon ra, it will overwrite clockwork when you install it

I've been trying to put this info my phone. But I have a problem.
Phone is ruining in fastboot mode, am typing command in cmd am pressing enter, then my PC reboot :/
Does somebody had the same problem?

Why you do that?
- Put your phone on fastboot mode
- Link it to the pc and turn on adb command
type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_ra1.7swift.img
and you're done

I did this... I wrote I did. After ENTER the command my PC doing a reboot by itself, before apply recovery in my phone.

Is it working now? If it doesn't, download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?07qod3dg208mb30
Then, put the amon ra file in that folder.
- Put your phone on fastboot mode
- Link it to the pc and turn on adb command
type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_ra1.7swift.img

you can try this method too (i use it)
1) copy recovery_ra1.7swift.img to sdcard
2) download/install some terminal into your phone.
3) run terminal and write :
Code:
#su
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_ra1.7swift.img
(or when it's not working:)
flash_image recovery recovery_ra1.7swift.img ;
flash_image recovery "/sdcard/recovery_ra1.7swift.img"
also you can to it in adb shell(connected into PC):
Code:
#su
#adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_ra1.7swift.img
or
Code:
#su
#adb shell
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_ra1.7swift.img
Hope this helps. (for me, it helped, because my computer freezes when using "fastboot flash" commands. )

Am reinstalling SDK and will check.
@hani93 thanks for this tut, it can be very helpful for me, cos my PC freezes too :/

no problem.
it should work.
(i googeld it for 4-5 days :S)
now i'm always using this method

I don't have to use fastboot with you method I guess, am I right??

ZduneX25 said:

that's right
just copy recovery image to sdcard (root dictionary) , install some terminal app( in market "terminal emulator" ) and enter commands...
and after that.. when you enter it . and terminal says "flashing recovery" ..or something, and then ends(with new command line)..
something that:
Code:
#su
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery_ra1.7swift.img
flashing recovery...
#
make reboot and hold on home+power, and recovery comes up.

No way, so don't I need rom with fastboot to get recovery?? I just flashed my phone about 2 days ago with ROM+Fastboot to get recovery via fastboot (I lost some data - all angry birds saves).
And you are saying that I could use your method on my previous ROM without Fastboot, am I right??

SOLVED [Q] Serious Bootloop issue using cwm

Hello everyone,
I recently rooted my phone ( http://theunlockr.com/2013/03/16/how-to-root-the-motorola-razr-i/ ) and everything was ok. But while setting up a new ROM, my system got stuck in a bootloop.
I can't figure out what is wrong, and no matter what rom i install, the device manages to boot up, but then crashes when loading GUIs and third party apps.
What i have tried so far:
wipe everything there is to wipe using CWM and formating folders also using cwm
press factory settings on fastboot
using bp tools on fastboot (though i don't know what it is used for) it managed to boot up the phone ONCE but with no wi fi nor mac adress available (the rom i used http://www.argendroid.com/topic-ROM...u-Control-Smart-Battery-21-08-2013-ArgenDroid )
mess up with different roms, all of them crashed at the same point
The Roms i tried:
Pillama 1.6 http://www.argendroid.com/topic-ROM...u-Control-Smart-Battery-21-08-2013-ArgenDroid
Atom CFW http://www.argendroid.com/topic-ROM-Atom-CFW-CustomFirmWare-Final
The tutorial's rom mentioned before which worked well
Progress and hints
at first i would just wipe data/factory , cache partition and dalvik, and the booting could not go further than displaying the unlock warning

once i formated /system, /cache, /data, /pds, /sdcard(which is actually the phone internal storage, there is another folder named /external-sd)
only then the boot process would go further and display the nice loading animations, but still crashing in the end before i could do anything.
Aditionally i can't manage to use ADB because somehow, my Barcode managed to dissapear. ADB won't recognize my device.. i'll try to find a ROM with usb debugging enabled by default but who knows...
So please help, what can i do?
I think there is something inside the internal storage that is not quite erased and is jamming when installing other roms. It is still pretty bizarre, and my phone is no more than a month old so...
Thanks beforehand.

How you installed CWM? Was using this? Which CWM version are you using? Tried to flash to stock?

well, you need to find pi-llama 1.4
download it, enter fastboot and flash the system.ext4 image. type
fastboot flash system (name of the file)
then look forward the omar-avelar kernel img and type
fastboot flash boot (name of the kernel img)

Surprisingly enough, pi-llama 1.4 solved it.

i just had to modify the .bat file so it wouldn't search for fix.zip in the phone memory.
It succesfully flashed system.img, boot and cwm 6.0.9 (not sure didn't check)
then i wiped data on phone, and installed fix.zip flash with cwm
once i got to restart it, i got it on fastboot mode and used bp tools and.... IT BOOTED UP!!
i think the boot included is omar's already, because wlan issues were solved (device has got a MAC adress)
thank you so much!
i won't turn off my phone again just to be sure

Thanks for your concern

I should mention that my PC is not able to recognize the usb storage.
I don't mind since Airdroid exists, but it's still kind of a bummer.
ADB recognizes it, though it displays Medfield<hex number>

It's nice to hear that. You can flash other roms(Omar for example) in case you got bootloops with clean installs. You just need to do the pi-llama method (flash the system.img & kernel) and then install the rom you want on top of the pi-llama 1.4

[FIX] FastBoot Mode without using a Factory Cable. [TWRP BootLoop]

Recently while updating my Kindle Fire HD 7, my device went into a bootloop where it would boot into TWRP and the TWRP logo kept blinking, I live at a place where it is impossible to procure a factory cable. After numerous failed attempts on making one myself i gave up on factory cables. I however wasn't satisfied enough by my failures so i went the hard way and out of curiosity connected my Kindle to my Laptop and did an ADB device lookup. VOILA ! It was there but now i was wondering how to get it into the fastboot mode from there. After crashing my head several times and punching a few commands my device booted into the orange heaven for a hacker. "The FASTBOOT Mode." So if you are in the same situation i hope this guide will be able to help you unbrick your device.
Steps:
1. Power on your device until the dreadful TWRP LOGO starts flashing.
2. Connect your kindle with your PC.
3. Type in "adb devices" and check if your device is available.
4. If your device shows up in ADB Devices List, Proceed to the next step.
5. Type in "adb reboot bootloader"
6. Now the device will boot into the fastboot mode.
7. Download TWRP from here
8. cd to the folder where your twrp image has been downloaded and type "fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery kfhd7-twrp-2.8.7.0-recovery.img" to flash it

This version TWRP has been uploaded by @Hashcode , Kindly use the second button to download (BlueColor) and not the 1st one.

Title
Do you want me to test it? I will be able to do so in about 1-2 months because I have the same problem. I'm gonna save this page in favorites until then.
Sent by my kfhd7 with BeanStalk-4.4.4065-20141002-tate and Twrp 2.8.7.0

Okay, I've put in the last command, and now it says it is waiting for any device. It doesn't seem to want to detect my device, any ideas?
EDIT: Nevermind, just had to set it to the adb composite driver!

device never booted into fastboot mode

Bricked Z2 pro

[Solved] After the last edit, I could go to fastboot and redo a "fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot twrp.img"
Hello,
I have a z2 pro, and i wanted to change the ROM on it. Since it came with a modified ROM, i flash a stock ROM. I then unlocked bootloader sucessfully.
I transfered the new ROM to the phone and did a
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
The phone booted with twrp correctly. I then did a wipe of system, cache and dalvik.
I tried to install the new ROM, but it prompted me the error "Unknown Command [log]". Having already installed a new ROM on another device, i remembered that disconnecting the usb cable or rebooting did the work, so i did both.
Now, the phone isn't recognized by my computer, so i can't redo the "fastboot flash", and when i go into recovery mode, it isn't TWRP that is loaded but this

How can i do to load TWRP again on the phone, or flash a ROM ?
I have shut down the phone and hold the power button, windows seems to recognize it as a cd drive. QFIL still doesn't change his status from "no port available"
Edit: After reinstalling QPST, qualcomm driver and usb driver, QFIL now detect this port "ShenQi HS-USB Diagnostics (COM4)" and if i check "Show Non QDLoader\DIAG Port" it also show "ShenQi HS-USB NMEA (COM7)" and "ShenQi test mode Interface (COM5)".
When i tried to do a download content, i got prompted the following error "Download Fail: Switch to EDL Fail".
When i run "adb devices" it show the phone under "? unauthorized"
Thanks

@maxorus When you power on phone you should have start menu for 5 sec. if your bootloader is unlocked . Just push vol - or vol + , then choose fastboot ( bootloader ) and confirm by power

I think you must delete your old drivers from PC and install news.

Switch off your phone.
Keep Pressing vol down button 4/5 secs & connect usb.
Check device manager in pc.
If its showing diagnosis no problem.
Open qfil & load content file from ur rom.
Click download content & just keep it connected.
Qfil automatically switches to download mode (9008) & starts flashing rom.
If download mode does not start on its own check these items below :
Update Qualcomm driver
Update windows, even optional updates.
Use QPST 2.7
Let me know the progress!!

Need help flasing Paranoid Android - All TWRP'd up

Hi all! This is my first attempt to flash a custom rom and I'm stumbling. Summary below:
DEVICE AND SYSTEM:
Xiaomi Mi 6X
Running MIUI 11.0.6.0(PDCCNXM) (based on Android 9)
Device bought in China in 2018, not used until now, only updated through Xiaomi OTA.
Mi Unlock status - Unlocked
Developer options unlocked
USB debugging - activated
Phone not rooted.
Phone has no lock screen password set.
FILES TO FLASH:
1. dm-verity anti-rollback flash:
no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip
2. Paranoid Android custom ROM:
pa-quartz-5-wayne-20200924.zip
METHOD
I'm using Google pltaform-tools (https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools) + TWRP files (https://twrp.me/xiaomi/xiaomimi6x.html) and command prompts in adb and fastboot.
WHAT HAS WORKED SO FAR
adb devices OK - cmd shows hexa key
adb reboot bootloader OK - phone enters fastboot
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img OK - cmd shows Finished. Total time: 1.504s
fastboot reboot (holding recovery key combo to avoid entering automatic MIUI recovery) OK - TWRP loads
Then the problems start. TWRP shows:
Mount
Decrypt Data
Enter Password
and no password in the realms of man or heaven works. by clicking cancel as a workaround several mounting problems appear:
THE ISSUE
Since TWRP can't decrypt internal storage, I can't find the zip files I copied to the phone's memory.
Googling around I found the OTG option and tried it. But as it turns out it's also impossible to mount OTG (on Mount, the option for OTG appears but clicking it does nothing)
Googling more I found out about abd sideload, but TWRP fails to start the feature (on Advanced -> ADB sideload -> select Wipe Dalvik Cache + Wipe Cache)
Also googling intensely I found that by wiping the memory (on Wipe - Format Data - write "yes") then reentering recovery it was possible for TWRP to enter a decrypted mode. after doing this no password is required but both OTG and ADB show the same problems as before (and of course the internal memory files are no longer there).
As a summary of my woes, this is what I've tested so far and the results:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Assorted tests with older versions of TWRP have exactly the same results.
After every wipe I have to set up MIUI11 again, open developer optios, allow USB debugging etc. My fingers hurt. Morale is low. My soul is leaking. Any ideas on where to go next? Is this some unfixable incompatibility between TWRP and MI? I think I've exhausted the paths I can find by just googling around like a progressively more hairless maniac noob.

TWRP sucks for mi 6X. Download this one (OrangeFox Recovery) and everything works fine.To install it extract the zip and flash the recovery.img that is there. After that reboot to recovery and if it still asks for password just ignore, go to menu, manage partitions, clik on data, click on the button that will show, then format data and type yes. This will clean every partitions (It's the only way i found to fix encryption since our device doesn't support sd cards)Then download the Rom you want to your pc and then copy to your phone storage and install it. Good Luck.
