It is possible to load TWRP without flashing it.

The following are two different commands.

Boots TWRP without flashing:

mfastboot boot recovery.img​

Flashes TWRP:

mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img​
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titan015:
Sir I'm sorry but could you please elaborate more on what am I supposed to do?

What I did was download TWRP, renamed it to recovery.img and then pasted it in a folder with mfastboot in it. I then executed the command you supplied "mfastboot boot recovery.img" and heres the result:

C:\Users\...\Desktop\mfastboot>

Is this thread abandoned?

Is unlocking your bootloader a prequisite to flashing recovery.img? I have a soft bricked (from what I've read) XT 1032 and I forgot which Lollipop version I had (I'm a loser, I know).

I vaguely remember seeing 5.0.1 . Less likely, it could have been 5.0.2 as well, but less likely. And I'm almost sure it was not 5.1 (I would have remembered).

Anyway, since I did not want to unlock the bootloader (I have still not given up on recovering my data as I did not back them up because of the loser that I am), I did not try flashing a custom recovery like TWRP, and instead tried:

- flashing the GPE recovery.img. I got the partition error (cannot erase).

- flashing gpt.bin, got Preflash vaidation failed

I repeated these steps with 5.0.2 files and that had the same results.

Could this be all because my bootloader is not unlocked? Please tell me that I don't HAVE to unlock bootloader. Of course, I have never tried rooted my phone either. I was running pure OTA stock when my phone suddenly stopped booting up and went into a boot loop.

An unlocked Bootloader is required to flash (or boot) a custom recovery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Der_K:
But it's a Stock rom... I've tryied this custom recovery, of course, but this isn't working with a stock rom either.

:confused:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Please try to explain more clearly. Don't use the term ROM, if you are talking about a factory firmware image - in other words - sparsechunk files.

Can you flash the stock recovery img included in the factory firmware image?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Der_K:
Sorry, I've abandoned the idea for a few months, until the new Factory Firmware Image was released and them i've tryied again with the new android stock recovery img. It worked! Good, but useless now.

Thankyou anyway :)

I had an Firmware on Android 4.4.4 and waited 'till the 5.1 release so the parts of Android 4.4 that was giving me an error message I just used the archives with 5.1 android parts instead. It worked.

I am getting this issue same as u. Have u or anyone got the solution ??
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xrae:
found a solution hopefully

Dont use fastboot to flash just use it to boot into twrp recovery......

guys the only solution i worked out for this problem is..

1. unlock bootloader (not sure if it is a must)

2. using fastboot boot into twrp version 3.1.x.x or later using comamd

mfastboot boot twrpimagename.img

3.flash a twrp img file to the recovery from there i can confirm versions 3.1.1.0 and 3.1.0.0...

nb. you can install it to either boot partition or recovery either will do

4. use ur newley istalled recovery to install a twrp compatible rom, either stock or custom...

there u go;);)

Hello! I want to root my s3 mini (ANDROID 4.1.2) without a computer. It' a program who can do that? I try some aplications but it doesent work(framaroot, vroot, iroot, kingroot). PLEASE HEEELP ME!
[XDA Assist] Razvan:
Hi there,

I don't think you can root without PC but relevant answer you will receive if you ask that in the dedicated forum for S3 Mini, see bellow:

Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Also please see this tutorials for root:

[Root] One click root for Galaxy S3 Mini

[GALAXY S3 MINI TOOLKIT V3 Drivers, Backup, Root, CWM, TWRP, Flash, + MORE

Good luck
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
This is my first tutorial so please tell me if I missed anything​

This thread will teach some noobs here who are on stock 4.1.2/4.2.2 and want to flash latest roms like cm12/cm11/Euphoria Os and etc. This tutorial is self-tested by me!

______________________________________________________________________________

1) Firstly, you should unlock the bootloader. To do this go to this thread> http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/general/tutorial-bootloader-unlocking-relocking-t2332900 (after flashing you may get a bootloop so flash stock ftf to recover > http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/general/xperia-l-how-to-flash-tool-unlocking-t2337955 http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/general/sony-xperia-l-flashable-ftfs-locked-t2560642

2)You should install a recovery > http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/orig-development/cwm-recovery-installer-t2589320 for this you need root > http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/general/rootkit-xperia-l-15-3-1-17-1-click-root-t2591290 Backup your stock rom(optional) and TA(if the phone gets damaged during warranty) and copy rom zip file to sd card http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/orig-development/4-4-3-aospa-legacy-4-4-beta1-t2571273

3) In recovery Wipe cache/dalvic/art cache> Factory data reset> clean to install a new rom

4) Flash the rom and Gapps for specific rom(may not be included so google (the version of android gapps) and flash it after rom. Edit: Flashing kk is not necessary. ;)

5) Reboot and wait for some time... Instalation takes some time... :good:

___________________________________________________________________________

6)(BONUS) If you want a good recovery like philz/twrp > http://xdaforums.com/xperia-l/themes-apps/beta-fota-cwm-one-klick-t3068084 just install an app and click install philz. The app that installs a recovery is unique. It won't be overriden by another rom's recovery and u won't have to flash tz boot.img again and again... Thumbs up if you liked my tutorial :good: I do appreciate it! And of course, if you need any help just comment here or add me on facebook.

I'm here to help you guys!​

Edit: There are so many good roms for our XL on xda( I don't compare hard work of devs). Here are some ones that I tried and suggest checking out:

edit: did i say something? ;)
[Sony Xperia L] Kosa02:
You should add backup of TA before unlocking bootloader (in case if phone will got damaged.. during warranty). Else your tutorial is great :)
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
Copy that! Adding right now!:D
[Sony Xperia L] tbooz14:
hello, i want to try the step 7.. if after i unlock bootloader then i just intall philz apk?
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
Yes

Install the app and click philz if your bootloader is unlocked. BTW it's written in that thread that can only be installed on cm12/cm11 etc. But not on stock. If you want a recovery on stock rom try the step 2) :)
[Sony Xperia L] Flashing_Expert:
you should wipe cache and dalvik after flashing

and one question why is KK recommended first?
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
No need to wipe cache/dalvic

Lol, flashing kk is recommeded because I did that myself. The thread says that It's self-tested by me :D well, I flashed cm11 and than cm12 :D
[Sony Xperia L] SdtBarbarossa:
cm11 isnt nessasary...

cm11 overrides system and userdata partition...

cm12 does the same... so there isnt any differenz in flashing cm12 from stock or from cm11....

only thing usefull is to flash latest stock before flashing cm12 ... because other than custom roms ...stock rom will override nearly all partitions.... that means better modem...baseband ...etc... so you should come from last stock
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
Thanks

Deleted my nonsense! :D
[Sony Xperia L] Flashing_Expert:
well this is how many myths about flashing stuff born...
[Sony Xperia L] tbooz14:
hello me again.. have some question again.. hehe if i want to flash RR rom by david then i have to flash first the cm11? then cm 12?

or skip flashing cm 11 or cm 12 and go ahead on RR by david

also i tried to back up TA but its fail need rooting acces..
[Sony Xperia L] grenademik:
The tutorial for installing recovery is for locked bootloader will it work for unlocked?
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
clean install directly

No need to flash cm11/cm12 as it was sad...
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
yes, it will work for UBL too

But in my experience, the recovery was a little buggy and after some time was gone :D Not sure why. Used it just once to flash cm12
[Sony Xperia L] Iasashvili:
Yeah, sorry about that...

I was just sharing my own experience. Thanks for notice. I just edited it ;)

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olddmel:
My Tf300t has become really sloooooooow.

I see 2 solutions offered: factory reset or root and flash a custom ROM.

Factory reset is easier but apparently tablet becomes sloooow again after a few months. Does this also happen with custom ROMS? What ROM is best for someone like me: I use my tablet a lot, I'm pretty tech savvy but I'm not a developer and I don't need all the bells and whistles, I just hate having to use a background app killer every few minutes to get normal response times.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike-y:
Is your tablet updated to the latest Asus JB build? if not I would do that, and then flash a recovery and try one of the newer roms in the development section.

Also, make sure you go to the options in the Google Play app and turn off auto updates. I don't use the tablet every day, and upon booting up, the updates would take forever and make the tablet really slow until they were done. Now I update manually, when I have time to let the tablet sit for a few minutes while I eat breakfast or something.

But your tablet shouldn't really be slowing down that much. Maybe you have a rogue app that is eating up CPU cycles?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianKnox:
I've had good personal experience with CyanogenMod and KatKiss, but there are tons of good ROM's out there. There are usually 'bugs' to work out with any custom ROM and some features might work better then stock some might work worse.

Just wanted to give some heads up... FIrst off i wanted to thank you guys for getting twerp and a stock dump of the rom that was a major help..

Secondly i wanted you to know where im at ..

After spending 2 days in repo hell (god gotta love Ubuntu for that.)

I have started working on this devices device tree for the kernel and the device itself...

So far im working on 2 branches from the same tree sense there fundamentally built the same way ill fork them for less confusion after...

What does this mean... Well im working on Ubuntu (Touch OS) for this device.. ( i dono i just love the way it looks and alot of the features for it.) Secondly sense Ubuntu os is based off asop atm it will also help other devs Get CM roms faster.. I am no kernel dev so if any Kernel devs would love to help once i get enough of the device tree up ill give out the github info... WHile we dont mind forking for your own ends.. It would be nice if people could send push and pull requests so we can have one master source... ( dont worry you will always be credited were not about kanging. )

No not yet but then i havent built anything atm so when i start doing builds im sure something will come up... I dont expect to many issues as mali has a nice tendancy to release source for there gpu's well they used to at lest... The whole thing is to use as much open source drivers as humanly possable while it makes development time longer (some features may not work as well as the pritortary blobs in the beginning) it does help the community more when we want to do things and can work directly with the source instead of ****ty hacks and workarounds :)
