[Q] HELP with installing TWRP

Hi,
Long story short. I had TWRP 2.5.0.2 with my SGH-I377 (Galaxy S4 AT&T). I used it to flash this GE ROM by Maddog (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2340783)
After flashing, the ROM works just fine without issue. The Model Number in the about phone section however showed to be GT-I9505G, but I didn't mind too much since it works flawlessly in everyway. When I tried to update TWRP to 2.6.3.0, GooManager downloaded the wrong img due to this (it was my fault for not looking at the version before clicking yes). But now after reboot, i can't get into TWRP recovery anymore, it keeps saying "System software not authorized by ATT has been found on your phone". I was able to bypass by going to download mode and cancel to boot back into my old GE ROM. But now I can't seem to find away to get the correct TWRP version back on the phone.
I can download the correct img from this site, put it on my internal/ext SD, but I can't find a way to install it from within GooManager or from a File Manager.
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jflteatt
I need some assistance with instructions on how to install TWRP manually from an img file. Or from a tar file using ODIN if anyone has the link to necessary files and instructions on how to do it. At this point, it doesn't even have to be 2.6.3.0, I'll be just happy to get 2.5.2.0 back.

You won't be able to install it with Goo Manager. Head over the the TWRP website and find your phone that way, and grab the flashing zip file and just flash it in recovery. I had the same issue a few weeks ago.

After some more digging, I was able to find a solution.
For anyone who runs into this problem...I was able to use Quick Flasher from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694617 , then choose the flash a new recovery using the correct TWRP img
Everything is good now, I am able to get into TWRP recovery 2.6.3.0

That's straight from the horses mouth there. I didn't read much into it, but it looks like they have a odin flashable version. Also make sure that the newest version of TWRP doesn't conflict with the ROM your using. I have read quite a few where the latest version causes issues.

About flashing TWRP on the LG G2
This is a reply to the last post in the LG/TWRP post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670&page=116
And specifically, I was about to ask the same question as "ctowne", about the lack of loki_flash in the loki package pointed in the instruction page.
I'm really stuck here, because I already "soft bricked" my phone (rooted LG G2 D802 international) in two different states that required a complete flash and wipe with the originale LG ROM and tool. And one of these was caused by the AutoRec tool, which apparently doesn't work for lot of people and could lead to bootloops.
So, before trying anything I'd like to be sure I'm doing the right thing, and more importantly, that I have the complete instructions to do it.
To sum it up:
-according to the thread, I need the loki package and the TWRP package, but there is no loki_flash inside the actual loki package
-but there's one inside the last TWRP package! Should I use this one?
-also, is not clear where I need to move all the files to make everything works
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you downloaded the correct version of autorec? I have a VS980 and autorec worked perfectly....even after updating to the latest version (26A), after which I flash TWRP 2.8.0.1 via recovery (which autorec installs 2.7.0.0).

Apparently something went wrong with my first install. I tried again and the AutoRec flash went OK!
BTW, how do you update TWRP? Just flashing the zip via recovery and nothing else?

Yes. Have whatever version of TWRP on your phone and flash it. Make sure to reboot recovery and it will show the current version flashed.

TWRP wont work
Hi!
I rooted my Galaxy Note 2 GT N7100 before and TWRP worked just fine. But I decided to flash my device back to its stock ROM. now when I try to install TWRP again Odin would say it passed but when I reboot it so I can get to TWRP mode its stuck in Android system recovery 3e. What can I do to fix this?

hi guys, i've been on 2.6.1.0 on my i9500 rooted running PAC ROM, i've tried upgrading through the twrp manager but just says the "email the dev" thing, I've tried going through odin but for whatever reason it just freezes whenever i pick the tar file, is it possible to just flash the latest version through my current 2.6 twrp?
edit: managed to solve it myself thanks guys
edit2: twrp manager doesn't seem to work it turns out :\ it goes through all the steps and then remains on the same build.

not working on my note 3 neo SM-N750
not able to flash twrp from recovery mode it is saying
FOOTER IS WRONG;
SIGNATURE VERIFICATION FAILED;
guys please help me out its urgent
thnx in advance

Have this problem.
Flash TWRP and doesn't respond the touch in recovery mode.
Flash Philz Touch and no problem.
Using lastest bootloader HOA7.
Please guys and @Dees_Troy, help me.

Hi to all, I installed the TWRP manager ap from the playstore, when I go to "install TWRP" and choose my devise which I guess it's ja3g (for I9500) the app finds no versions to install, am I missing something here? I mean, I obviously am, but I can't think what it is, I'm pretty new at this.
I just rooted and wanted to install ozcan rom, but the instructions for this say that TWRP must be used, does anyone know about this?
Thanks.

About my problem with TWRP, I do not know what improvements or changes included in the versión GearCM Recovery TWRP 2.8.5.0 but it works perfectly, the touch and the various options.

Hello.
I'm using TWRP 2.8.6.0 and GearCM.
My Internal Memory is encrypted.
As i see in changelog, TWRP can decrypt internal memory, but it doesen't.
Is it bug? Or something else?

You can support galaxy s5? Exinos version

So I flashed the latest TWRP 2.8.1.0 using ADB on my 2012 N7 running the official 5.0. Read the OP to see if it was compatible and didn't see anything mentioned about it. It flashed without an issue but upon booting into recovery, I got a dead robot with the red triangle with an exclamation. Does this mean that Android 5.0 isn't supported yet? Thx in advance for the help!
Edit: Reflashed and fixed. 1st flash was probably a bad download. Thx!
Edit 2: flashed recovery.img successfully, but was stuck on boot up for 30mins. Had to reflash device back to stock to fix. Is lollipop not supported yet?

Was able to figure it out and make it work. Not sure what it was that didn't let cmd flash the recovery, but when I used the flashing recovery option in NRT, it worked like a charm.

Install TWRP on Xperia Acro S lt26w
Hi to all. How I can Install TWRP on my Xperia Acro S lt26w. I saw ROMS for my phone with TWRP, but I cant manualy install it becouse my phone model in TWRP Manager (ROOT) from Google Play is not listed.
Sry for bad English.

So i had hurricane v12 working on my n7100 for quite some time and today i decided to flash another rom, ihad twrp 2.7 installed on my N7100, so today i updated to twrp 2.8.6 in hopes of installing another rom, and right after twrp update when i rebooted i noticed i have no signal and that my imei is corrupted, it says it's unknown. i have an old efs.img but cant restore it, tried dr.ketans solution and this one and couldnt restore the imei. do i need to have same rom installed as when i made the efs backup? becaouse im not sure if the backup i have is from when i had hurricane installed, maybe its from 4.2 version of android. Is there any help for my phone?

Leads to bootloop
Moto G XT033 with Lollipop 5.0.2
TWRP was working nice until I make a ROM backup. After finishing the backup (only saved the ROM file. Did not restore) I rebooted the system and BAN! My phone was gone!
Searching a few topics, I found more users with the same problem: uses backup feature and get a bootloop.

Lg g2 no os at all

Hi!
First I tell you how I recently messed up my LG G2 D802.
I hadn't had a custom rom for ages and now I wanted to have one (This wasn't the first time. I've done this a lot earlier). I had always had root access, but not custom recovery. So the first thing was to install one and I chose to download Rom Manager from Google Play, and then install ClockWorkMod. So, when I was installing the custom recovery I came up with a problem: something went wrong during the installation (I have no idea why). When I booted the device, white letters and numbers appeared on the top left of the screen, saying something like: "boot certification error" and numbers like "[780] [800]" and so on. The screen went black and the phone didn't load the OS. So I was shocked of course because I had never had such a problem.
So, desperate for trying everything to find the solution, I tried tens of ways to try to fix the problem. Finally I read about thing called SRKTool. So I used it and ended up having TWRP on my device, and no OS at all. I tried to flash CM12 and CM12.1 (downloaded from the official site) but nothing works out. TWRP says that flashing the ROM is succesful but when rebooting the system it doesn't load the OS but it comes back to TWRP Recovery mode - WHATEVER I DO. I can't enter the Download -mode at all. I tried hard reseting (Power + Vol - keys), but once again it boots to the TWRP. I can't understand why the TWRP fails to flash the ROM even though it's saying the process was successful. Or maybe this problem is much more internal - and permanent.
After tens of XDA developers' threads I'm writing this here because I'm in need of help. I want to bring my G2 to back in life. I'm out of ideas. Can you help me? I tried to flash the stock firmware but guess what happened? The installation failed, and the device booted back to TWRP. So all I'm able to do is to use the TWRP Recovery. I appreciate your help. Thank you.
(Ps. I'm sorry if I break the rules by writing a new thread. My problem just seems to be so unique that I couldn't find help anywhere.)

If you have access to twrp than you can do what ever is needed
what twrp version douy you have?

The solution is easy. Download the stock rom for your model and install it with otg cable. The reason cm12 is not booted is because you need jb bootloader or caf bootstacks.

Hi!
I tried to install TWRP version 2.6.6.3, but it fails to flash it so I'm stuck with the version 2.8.7.3. All I'm able to enter is just the recovery mode. I can't enter the download mode so I can't flash the stock firmware.
Currently I'm out of ideas. I can't flash any OS, the TWRP fails everytime and creates errors.

Try flash bumped kernel like lp dorimanx then flash bumped bootstak then lp rom like cloudy or stock. Or google this: lg g2 unbrickable now xda ...that work for me
