Lenovo Vibe P1 TWRP flashing issue - Lenovo Vibe P1 Questions & Answers

So I'm trying to flash TWRP onto my Vibe P1 (p1a42) with ADB, yet every time I try, with any image file I always get the same thing.
sending 'recovery'
OKAY
writing 'recovery'
FAILED (remote: invalid signature and data)
My bootloader is unlocked and no other thread has managed to help me, so I decided I'll try my luck here.
This is my first post on XDA so I'm sorry if I got anything wrong.
Thanks for any help I can get.

According to the log, your bootloader is not unlocked. Try to unlock it again. Which method did you use the first time?

It was already unlocked bootloader since the beginning, I used Aroma ROM first, then i used Atomic Jb. I never unlocked the boot loader since it is already unlocked.
Is it the reason of the rom it got locked. If yes, how do i unlock it bcos i'm able to do fastboot and fastmode only

Hey buddy.. thanks a lot.. i have succeeded to flash twrp on my p1a42_s288 rom without rooting.. i think the link whitch you have given is needed to be sorted in many different methods.. all is mixed up so new user can be confused.. as there is no need to flash another rom to get our phone rooted, flashing twrp and supersu zip is sufficient.. they need to state that particularly for new comers.. anyways, thanks alot, and i too got confused due to the mixing up but i didn't flashed the rom given in link.. unlocking bootloader wiped my data so they must warn to get backup at unlocking bootloader by adb.. otherwise with qfil it didn't wiped data..

This was back from 2016, I believe updating was the fix.
Sorry for the lousy answer, I can't remember that far back.

unlocking bootloader in stock MM

Hi,
I have a Z00A and it just got back from RMA. It returned with MM, so I want to install twrp and Lineage. I have read many tutorials on unlocking the BL but they all seem to refer to Lolipop.
I read somewhere that to unlock the MM BL, you must downgrade do lolipop. Is this the current method of unlocking the BL?
I tried to to install twrp in fastboot, but it seems that my device is not recognized by my computer in fastboot (I'm running Fedora Linux), maybe because it is with the locked BL.
Any help is much appreciated.
Just a follow up. I tried to flash the recovery:
bash-4.3$ sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-Z00A.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (15316 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.920s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.645s]
finished. total time: 1.565s
but it seems it didnt work. All is in the same state as before

You need to downgrade the ROM to Stock Marshmallow using QPST/QFIL and then unlock the bootloader.
I got this info from someone who had the exact same issue.
