TWRP Asking Password - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Today i flashed crDroid Oreo Beta. After flashing the rom i booted my phone. Then when i tried to get back into recovery it keeps asking password. If i press cancel and go ahead to 'Install' section it shows nothing.
Is there any fix for this problem?

Did you set a password on crDroid?

How did you flash it? Did you wipe before flashing? Probably nothing you can do now but flash it again.

Trying to install CWM touch over TWRP

Tried doing it through ROM manager but no go, it confirms that I flashed it but upon reboot into recovery it just goes into TWRP....how else can I do it?
Is this something to be done via odin?
Flash this in TWRP then reboot recovery. Report back https://app.box.com/s/lwaycywuva7p9rt6a40g

No OS Installed! Help

I just got my Sprint LGOG a couple days ago, so I don't know much about it. I wiped my data in twrp to flash a ROM and now when I try to reboot, twrp tells me I have no OS installed. It deleted all of my backups and Roms so I can't do anything atm. Could I just push a ROM to the phone with my computer and flash it? If so, how? And if not, what can I do?

ADB Sideload Follow the first page of this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082084
Make sure you have a ROM to flash and a backup. Use a Stock ROM first then go to CM AOSP etc
Okay I got it Thanks!

Help!!!! Possible brick fixing to happen in twrp

Hey guys I just rooted my s3 using towelroot and then dl twrp app and attempted to install recovery when it was finished I rebooted to twrp recovery and it says there's nothing on my phone no data or anything. Before I rebooted the system to figure out what happened it told me there was no OS on the phone so now I'm stuck in twrp. What do I do? Do I have to have a computer or can I fix it using another phone and moving sd cards?? Please help

I've never used that app, does it auto select the recovery for you, or do you have to choose? If so which one did you try?
Did you wipe anything?
Have you tried to reboot even though it tells you there's no OS?
You may have to Odin the stock firmware. Yes you need a computer to do so.

Towelroot is a new way to root devices. I've only used it with my note 3. It only gives you root. And only downloaded twrp manager in play store and ran the install recovery script from inside the ago. I did all this because I don't have access to a computer right now. I was able to boot back into the phone without anything happening to it. Now I need to know why when I was in twrp recovery that twrp was not able to read or Mount any of my data or partitions...?

You can use Towelroot for the S3 too. I have a thread about it in the General section.
As for the recovery issues, I'm not sure. What model is your device? What firmware is it running and what version of TWRP is installed? (I think the latest is 2.8.0.1. Try both that and 2.6.3.1.) You can get the recovery from my signature.
If those don't work, try philz recovery instead.

Flash Factory N Image Over TWRP

Is there a way to avoid going back to stock in order to flash Android N? I was hoping there was a way to flash it through TWRP. Any possibilities?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using XDA-Developers mobile app
I don't know about TWRP, but shouldn't you be able to download the image and flash it through fastboot?
Yes I can flash it through fast boot, just not near a computer currently.

If you're bootloader is unlocked try flashing the vendor.img with fastboot. If it isn't and you have usb debugging enabled try sideloading the ota.

HI,
Is this action will reset or delete my phone (data....etc)?
Thanks
Flashing the vendor image or the ota will not delete any data.

Hi,
I don't remember if this function is enable, and it's not rooted (I think)
What Google app did you delete? You pretty much have to be rooted to do any serious damage. Anyway, Google 15 second adb xda and install that. You have a Windows pc, right?

Maybe try a factory reset, if indeed the device is NOT rooted or has the bootloader unlocked. I know his will wipe the data, however it is a choice if all else should fail.
I did this a long time ago disabling the google launcher and the phone crashes, and the only way i got it fixed was to just do a dirty flash of the rom. That was on an HTC s-ff and rooted through.

Thanks, but i don't want to lose the data ...that's way i don't want to perform factory reset
Ok, and you have a usb cable from the pc to your device? Google nexus factory image. When you get to the site, at the upper left choose the ota. Then go down to the 5x and download the latest ota. Note what directory it downloads to. Then open that directory and boot your device into the bootloader and then go to recovery. Connect your usb cable. In the directory where the ota is downloaded go to an open area and shift + right click. It should open a dialog box where you can open a command window. In recovery on your device you should see where you can load a file with adb. Then in the command window on the pc type. adb sideload ota.zip. Where ota.zip is the full name of the file you downloaded.

Before i continue to perform these steps - as you say,
I just want to make sure:
1. Is all the data on the phone will remain ? photo, whatsapp, apn, apps etc... ?
2. What does the ota.zip file do ?
Thanks again
It will not delete anything on the phone. The ota is an "over the air" update. It's the same thing that updates your system when Google pushes an update to your phone. It should replace the file you deleted.

Ok,
1. My phone is connected to my pc
2. I entered to Recovery mode
3. I changed the file to OTA.zip
Now to perform:
adb sideload ota.zip ?
Yep
