Unable to install twrp in redmi 2 - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Questions & Answers

So, I followed anandmore's thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-2/how-to/ultimate-guide-redmi-2-users-rooting-to-t3294212:
I did following commands in fastboot mode -
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
But after rebooting, it gets stuck on MI logo. What should I do?

Can you get into recovery? I don't remeber what button combination it is on stock rom, but on custom is it VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER, when phone light up, release power button and keep holding the volume buttons

The commands you need are
fastboot devices (for recognise the device)
fastboot flash recovery file.img (you can change the name file if you want, to be easy)
fastboot boot file.img (this command is necessary for the first boot into the new recovery flashed)
You need open the CMD ADB/Fastboot in the same file folder with the recovery.img, if not, not works

Hi, I had the same as you. You need to press the buttons as the other user said (volume up + down + power), when the phone is off. And hold them until you see twrp.
(FYI, the phone will boot with miui logo, then it takes maybe 15-30seconds to show twrp, you need to hold all the time I think, until twrp shows).

Thank you B.Paiter !!
"fastboot boot file.img (this command is necessary for the first boot into the new recovery flashed)" did it for me !

Fastboot Screen & no reboot into Recovery from System

Hy,
after install some CM13 builds i see that the Fastboot Screen thats normaly only Black screen with Fastboot OEM now changed into CM Menue.
First question how i can bring back into original Fastboot Black screen.?
The second problem is that i cant boot into recovery or bootloader from Android System. I press/hold Power then i can choose recovery or bootloader, after restart automatically system restarts....
As Recovery i flashed TWRP.
When i start the Phone by pressing Vol + and Power i can go into recovery, ( this way works )
at the moment i use the original Stock ROM because the CM Builds seems not working fine with my Bluetooth in Skoda/ VW Radio.
When in fastboot do
" fastboot boot twrp-xxxx-kipper-xxxx.img "
it should boot to twrp. instead of writing filename, write fastboot boot (SPACE) and drag the TWRP file to command window. After pressing ENTER you will get twrp. Do a factory reset and flash COS 12.1.1 zip file. If you need i can give you link to it

1.- Boot in fastboot mode (power and vol- buttons until the FASTBOOT logo shows up). Connect the phone with USB cable.
2.- Using Windows file explorer, go into the TWRP installer folder, there press and hold the shift key, and right clic the folder. Then click "open command line here".
3.- In the cmd window that opens, write "fastboot devices". Your phone's serial number and the word "fastboot" will appear. If not, the device is not being detected and you need to install the adequate driver. Look in google.
4.- Write "fastboot flash recovery [the name of the TWRP file inside the folder including the .img extension]". Press enter. You will see the output messages in the window, you must not see any error messages.
6.- After flashing the recovery without errors, DON'T REBOOT OR TURN OFF THE PHONE. THIS WILL ERASE TWRP AND INSTALL STOCK RECOVERY AGAIN.
7.- write "fasbtoot boot recovery [the name of the TWRP file inside the folder including the .img extension]". The phone will boot into TWRP
8.- Inside TWRP go to Advanced > Disable DM-verity
9.- Now you can flash custom roms and stuff. To boot into recovery mode power off the phone, press vol+, vol- and power buttons for 3 seconds, then release buttons and wait.
If none of the above works, maybe your bootloader got re-locked after flashing some MIUI ROM and that's why you can't flash TWRP or another ROM.
If the bootloader gets re-locked? We have to ask the permission again? R directly v can unlock using unlock tool? Is der any chances to relock bootloader? By how? Thank u...
thank for help.i flash miui 8.1.1.0 first, fastboot no re-locked ( I checked my status develop option and MI unlocker ). i flash twrp by flour_mo, it dont work but when i flash twrp-caffe 3.0.1 by fedosis ( LOS 13 ) it work. And i can boot into recovery.

What is shown on the cmd window? Is there any error on the phone's screen?
Could you provide a screenshot at least?

Boot logo

Hey long story short I flashed the wrong UPDATE.app... twice (although the second time it error'ed as incompatible) and factory-reset my Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L22C636B101 so OEM probably most likely got locked again during this reset. however, I can:
1) Enter fastboot mode
2) Nothing else, it just gets stuck on the boot logo. (incl not able to get the boot unlocker code because I didn't record any important stuff like product Id before ruining my device)
any recovery methods? open to roots, custom rom etc.
step by step instructions will be appreciated too
Ok if you saved your Bootloader Unlock Code you can recover your phone this way..

A-OEMInfo: https:// mega.nz/ #!pgEDVJAB!1B_ipBD_toi4BPFPAn01iEnA1Da4aVC5Ru87Z45FbYU
B-Firmware: http:// update.hicloud. com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1164/g104/v64241/f1/full/update.zip
C-UnlockCode, you must have it from the last time you unlocked
D-Recovery
Steps:
1. Boot into fastboot (connect your phone to your PC over USB and reset your phone pressing Vol- and Power, when you feel the vibration release power button and keep Vol- pressed .. Try it as many times as you can, until you get into fastboot.
2-Once on fastboot unlock your Bootloader with command:
fastboot OEM unlock (UNLOCK CODE)
3-Once unlocked reboot to fastboot again and flash recovery (TWRP or Revolution, try as many as you can until you are able to boot into recovery repeating steps 3-4) with this command:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
4- Reboot your phone pressing Vol+ and Power button.. It should go directly to *Booting Phone* and boot into recovery.
5-Once on recovery connect the phone to your PC and upload the OEMInfo file to SDCard without decompressing it.
6-Uncompress the firmware file on your PC and copy UPDATE.APP to 'dload' folder on SDCard.

8-Shutdown your phone with recovery options.
9-Turn your phone on with Volume Up and Volume down pressed while pressing Power button.. When you feel the vibration release power button and keep the other buttons pressed.. It should start to flash the firmware from your dload folder on SDCard.
10-once installed it'll restart your Phone.. If it asks you for an encryption password insert anything a couple times until it reboots the phone and factory resets the phone.
11-it should start to boot.. Give it about 20mins and you should be able to boot your phone
I hope this helps you man I saved my phone with this method more than a couple of times.. it's always important to have your Bootloader Unlock code in hand

How to enter into recovery if no rom is installed and volume keys are not working.

I do have TWRP installed.But i want a way to get into it(Using adb maybe) since volume keys are not working and no rom installed. Getting into bootloader is not a option since there also i need volume keys to navigate. and when i try to boot up asus symbol flashes for a second and then usb symbol. plzz help
How to recover Stock ASUS ROM:
- Reboot into FASTBOOT MODE
- via adb type command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Try This and download recovery.img from https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-5/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-0-asus-zenfone-5-t3657781

!!Resolved!! full brick not without the possibility of entering eRecobery or wtrp

Hi I was looking for a solution to fix my p10 lite that when restarting in twrp or eRecobery it threw black screen and restarted and remained in bootlogo
My device is the Was-Lx3, which was more difficult to give alone since I could not find a system and I could find one for my model and thanks to the fastboot commands it was restored from the factory
Link of the rom that I downloaded and it worked
https://mega.nz/file/DFhziCjI#c1vkVdcvKj3mR_wBb3Kbe_BAA5HUYaCtJVFLkUt9rLk
The steps is:
1 download the rom and unzip the rom
2 leave the device in fastboot mode and run Adb FASTBOOT
3 Flash the .img files I will leave the commands below
fastboot flash boot (drag the file and enter)
fastboot flash cust (same drag and enter)
fastboot flash recovery
fastboot flash system
fastboot flash userdata
ending with the flashing without disconnecting the phone Press buttons button power plus Vol + for 10s and you can enter eRecobery and download the last system you have and ready it will start normal
Even if you have the device without battery, it still works without battery, just do not disconnect the phone and doing all these steps and once the device has been restored, it will start to charge normally. I would like you to give the thank you button if it works if you do not comment below
