[Q] Got flash write failure error when writing 'recovery'

Hi,
My phone pop up messages saying some services stopped. So I turned it off and then it stuck in a boot loop circle. (same problem in this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/help-im-stuck-bootloop-4-circles-t2864835)
First, I tried to enter recovery mode, failed.
then, I tried to fix my recovery ...
Code:
D:\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140702\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot erase recovery
erasing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.351s]
finished. total time: 0.355s

sending 'recovery' (8838 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.492s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: flash write failure)
finished. total time: 0.512s
also tried the latest "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-mako.img" downloaded from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/mako
same error
Code:
D:\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20140702\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (7928 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.454s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: flash write failure)
finished. total time: 0.473s
here's the fact about my phone:
- CWM (recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.7-mako.img)
- SuperSU (UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.93.zip)
- rooted before the 4.4.4 update, didn't fix the root after ATO update
- Standard Kernel, no custom ROM.
I did suffer the "randomly turning off" problem before (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/nexus-4-randomly-off-intermittently-t2077148).
What could be the problem for the flash write failure? Is there any other way to recovery the data?
Many Thanks.

help needed to get twrp installed

I have a Redmi Note 1GB ram, 2 sims ( model HM NOTE 1S CT ) running ANDROID 4.4.4 MIUI 8.6.7.28 beta.
I'm trying to install TWRP onto it but keep getting the same error as shown below:

I've tried many different twrp versions but always the same error. Anyone help ?
Why you need to flash twrp.img to boot? When I did this part, it was done already.

That,s just to check it. It should reboot the phone into twrp, but standard recovery is still there.
Even if I try to boot into twrp using the volume down/power button, standard recovery comes up.
Can anyone help ?

What ROM are you on? If you are on a Custom ROM already, you can try to use TWRP manager to install.
Another option would be you flash another recovery, like PhilzTouch, and then a Custom ROM, then TWRP manager...
the 2nd command should work "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
in my case.its always working.i already try many times
1.flash stock miui rom using MIUI flash tool
2. flash twrp using fastboot "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
3. reboot
note : after flashing twp you need to execute "fastboot reboot" and miui/custom rom should boot normally
then reboot to recovery
i used twrp3.0.2

Stuck in boot-loop with no recovery! Please help!

A few days ago I installed an app to try and boot into recovery mode and install twrp....
When I restarted the phone for it to do so, it got stuck in a constant boot-loop. I've searched a lot an none of the solutions work.
When I try to flash the recovery it tells me (in this case I tried CWM):
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
sending 'recovery' (8294 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.276s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.286s
Can anyone suggest something please?
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
I had 7.0/5.1 with TWRP installed and root etc. I tried to flash an Oreo ROM but now the phone just remains on a black screen. Holding down either up or down with power button just does nothing. I do have fastboot access though and able to flash but not boot at all!

The easiest method to install oreo but be careful after this method you will get bootloader locked. If you want method which will not lock your bootloader try HwOta.

Thanks for your reply but the phone is permanently stuck on a totally black screen with fastboot. Pressing power+vol keys do nothing. I can't get to erecovery or the normal white screen/bootloader/fastboot screen. I am still able to send fastboot commands.

If anyone has any suggestions please share them, I cant believe how easy it was to brick this phone! I've flashed and rooted at least 5x samsung phones prior to this but never bricked one!

I don't know if you installed a custom Rom or not, but install the stock Huawei recovery. Than in a microSD card put the stock ROM. Than press vol up+voldown+lockscreenbutton.

I tried to install Elite ROM v7.7 for P10 Lite via TWRP using the zip file. It installed with some errors but after rebooting the phone does not come on at all. Screen is black. but I do have fastboot access. I've tried using the factory ROM in the dload folder but when I hold in the buttons it just makes the USB connect/disconnect sound in windows as if you plug or unplug a usb device, screen stays black. I'm starting to lose all hope now. I just payed a lot of money for this phone only to brick it...

Recovery not support flash

Hey all,
I currently have a Sony Xperia E4g (E2003) with an unlocked bootloader, but without root. I am trying to flash twrp recovery with fastboot, However get the following:
sending 'recovery' (12108 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.391s]
writing 'recovery'...

I know that it is possible to flash twrp on the e4g, because I did it earlier.
Thanks
Would you mind pointing me in the direction of the resources for the e4g?
