What about 'CWM Recovery' ?
If one succeeds with this TWRP and rooting, then I think one can change TWRP to CWM using flashify or Rashr, provided he/she should confirm that the 'CWM Recovery' will work on Lenovo A 7000 a with android 6.0 OS. But I do not know if the 'CWM' recovery thatwas used earlier when we were on android 5.0, will still work with android 6.0 or not. Can anybody confirm?

this is working men thanks:angel:

Use the stock rom found here to go back to factory settings using the stock marshmallow rom. Make sure that you flash using SP Flash Tool as instructed in the link. This will replace TWRP with stock recovery.
Afterwards, you can reinstall TWRP and root,etc.

I think you have copied the SuperSU-v71.zip in external storage and in TWRP you are searching in internal storage.If it is so the paste it in internal or change storage selection at the time of installing zip.
And paste the zip in root of the storage not in any folder.
As i can see this is your 1st post.
I think this will help you.

Mounting issue with TWRP
After switching sdcard as internal storage. The file manager only shows the ext. Sdcard so from where we can access the internal Sdcard to put that Supersu.zip.And the TWRP only mount only internal Sdcard. Not able to mount ext. Sdcard plz. Help!

Hey can i flash this supersu.zip via twrp 3.02-1?
Couple hours ago i flashed supersu.zip from lenovo a7000 indonesia group, and all i got was bootloop. Is it possible that with this supersu i could get another bootloop? Thanks

Miui keeps replacing TWRP with stock recovery

Hi there,
I'm trying to install TWRP onto my Xiaomi mi6 in order to keep backups and flash custom ROMs.
Last night I tried to install TWRP via ADB. I flashed the .img file, and was careful to hold down the 'volume up' button as I hit the command 'fastboot reboot' to ensure I didn't boot into stock recovery.
This brought me into the TWRP recovery. I selected READ-WRITE option (as opposed to read only) and tried rebooting to system. After this I tried rebooting into recovery to access TWRP once again, but was brought back to the stock recovery. TWRP couldn't be accessed.
I tried to reflash TWRP and to follow the suggestion posted here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-6/development/recovery-twrp-xiaomi-mi-6-t3619822
The file: /system/bin/install-recovery.sh present in stock system is responsible for that.
You can simply stop this from happening by deleting it or renaming it to install-recovery.sh.bak using any root explorer or via TWRP (Advanced -> File Manager).

Click to collapse
However, I could not find the file /system/bin/install-recovery.sh using the TWRP file explorer.
Any suggestions you could offer would be much appreciated.
My current miui version is: global 8.2.2.0 (NCAMIEC) and the phone has not been rooted (bootloader is unlocked).

After the twrp recovery installation is installed in the twrp recovery you install the " no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip" .
This will keep the twrp recovery,after restarting the system.

Wiped System/No OS installed, Error 7 while installing OS

Hello guys,
Today i accidentaly wiped everything through twrp...
Now i dont have an OS. After trying to flash the new OS as zip file through twrp Im getting an Error 7 Message. I have already tried to wipe it all again and editing the update file in the google folder (which is the only fix i can find on Youtube) but it hasnt worked for me.
I have the latest version of twrp and i also downloaded the official ROM from the OnePlus website.
Hopefully someone knows a other fix than just editing the update file.
Thank you!

Go to fastboot.
Flash twrp 3.2.1.0 universal codeworks dumpling.
Make sure you have downloaded the correct OOS zip file to your pc.
Boot into twrp from fastboot by pressing volume key to chose recovery mode.
Just as a precaution chose format data, type 'yes' and press enter.
In twrp, allow MTP.
Transfer the zip to phone.
Flash it.
Done.
I also faced the same problem once and this helped me. If you still have any problem contact me.

[SM-A520F][8.0] Problems installing Root with A5 2017

Today I've installed the stock firmware version of Android Oreo 8.0 (the December Update) with Odin.
After that I've installed the TWRP also with Odin, the 3.2.3 version.
Then I wanted to root the devide so I start with the installation of Magisk (because I need to hide the root form some apps like Netflix), but it keeps failing with the ERROR 1. I've searched in this forum but none of the solutions worked. One solution requires the boot.img of the rom, but I can only get a boot.img.lz4 from the AP md5 file which i have no idea how to use.
Then I tried to install SuperSU (v2.82 SR5 version). I followed a guide but once I finished the flash of RMM State Bypass and SuperSU I rebooted only to be locked out of my phone. A message informed me that the integrity of the phone could not be checked (or something like that) and so I had to re-flash the stock firmware and the recovery with Odin.
Am I missing something? Am I doing something wrong? And where can I find the boot.img from the stock firmare?
I hope somebody can help me because I spent a lot of hours looking for a solution without having a working result...

I tried re-downloading Magisk (the latest and the version before) but nothing changed.
Yes I wiped the data.
I've added that I'm working on a A5 2017 SM-A520F.

Hmm, did you reinstall stock firmware on it and try again? Error 1 happens when the zip is corrupted. What version of TWRP are you using, 3.2.3-0?
Um, did you flash no-verity 6.0.zip? https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...velopment/recovery-galaxy-a5-a7-2017-t3815931

I'm using 3.2.3-1.
I've tried to reflash with Odin the whole stock firmware, then I flashed the TWRP recovery 3.2.3-1 (I redownloaded every file), I entered the recovery and I flashed the no-verity 6.0.zip, only to be once againt cut out from my phone with the same message as yesterday saying that the integrity of the phone could not be checked and that I need to restore the phone.
I really don't understand what is going wrong...

I think I've made it? I don't know what I did differently this time, I'll post the solution here if someone needs it:
0a. MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR DATA!
0b. Put in your SD-Card the version of Magisk you want to install and the no-verity-opt-encrypt-x.x zip file.
1. Flash the stock firmware with Odin, when the PASS! message appears and the phone starts to reboot unplug the device and quickly re-enter in download mode.
2. Flash the TWRP recovery with Odin, when the PASS! message appears and the phone starts to reboot unplug che devide and quickly enter in recovery mode.
3. In recovery click Wipe and select Format Data. Then go back, click Install and select from the SD-Card the no-verity-opt-encrypt-x.x zip file.
4. Reboot your phone to system, configure the devide (account, ecc.).
5. Turn-off the phone and go in recovery, click Install and select from the SD-Card the Magisk zip.
6. Reboot your phone to system, install Magisk Manager and you're done!
TWRP and no-verity-opt-encrypt zip file: click.
Magisk zip and Magisk Manager: click.
