Flashing stock firmware without TWRP - Realme X2 Questions & Answers

I was trying to unlock and flash custom ROM on my Realme x2 RMX 1991 device.
I succeed to unlock the device. but still have some issues with flashing TWRP as a custom recovery.
I was thinking to flash an old version of firmware like A14 instead of my current version A16. and try to re-flashing TWRP after that.
Is it worth it? and how can I flash stock firmware without using custom recovery?
I tried to flash with regular recovery, but it's juts failed because it's older than the current firmware version.

the boot image shows up but ony for less than a second and when i try to go in fastboot its the same .... less than a second

how did you flash the TWRP?? do it as the same way you did flash custom recovery using fastboot
you can get the latest bootloader and radio (in the factory image tgz file) at http://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

[Q] Revert to stock recovery in order to flash KK

Hi everyone,
I am currently using PAC-MAN for 4.2 by sudu_petru and would very much like to try KK.
Unfortunately, I think that the only I can update my firmware is via the dload method, wich I
can't use because I'm currently using TWRP recovery 2.6. I am tempted to flash the B118 recovery
but I'm afraid it might brick my device. Is flashing the recovery ONLY as risky as flashing the whole
firmware? Or is it possible to flash the device using the dload method through TWRP?
Regards,
Chovine.

Thank you for your answer, but I'll reformulate my question more simply. I was originally on
B120CN, I installed PAC-MAN and TWRP. I would like to revert to stock recovery so
is it SAFE to flash B118 recovery.img or could it brick my phone?
Thank you for your time .
I flashed CN118 recovery without any problem (except that the phone was vibrating while it was on recovery). If you want you can also flash KK recovery which I prefer and worked better.
It's safe to flash the stock recovery, you will not brick the device with it.

.139 recovery version?

I'm trying to get ASUS replacement for my device because of the touchscreen. I flashed .139 stock ROM but the recovery version stays on .90. So I flashed .90 stock ROM and tried to update it to .139 but no update is available for me. I then flashed .97 ota zip with adb sideload. The recovery is still version .90. Can anyone with .139 full stock firmware verify your recovery version? Just let me know your recovery version if you have .139 stock ROM installed.
My recovery actually is TWRP, but when I was on stock .139, I'm pretty sure the recovery was .139 too.
Go to the pre-rooted roms section in android developement, you can download the recovery, boot and droidboot images alonside the pre-rooted 139 rom.
You can flash these separately through fastboot, no rooted rom needed to be downloaded/flashed...
Thanks again to Shakalaka...

Will flashing stock firmware also restore the stock recovery?

My phone is Asus Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML, Z00AD).
As described in another thread, I was unsuccessfully trying to unlock my bootloader. In the process, I also lost the stock recovery.
I learned how to flash stock recovery to repair it.
My firmware version is WW-2.20.40.198. I haven't been able to find the stock recovery file for that exact firmware version. However, I have been able to get a hold of the WW-2.20.40.196 stock recovery file. I was told on XDA-Developers that this would be fine, so I flashed it via Fastboot.
It seems to be working, although I haven't tried to actually flash firmware through adb yet.
I'm now unsure of which firmware to flash through adb, WW-2.20.40.196 or WW-2.20.40.198.
I have two conflicting ideas.
On the one hand:
1. Since the recovery file I flashed with fastboot was 196, then perhaps I should also flash the 196 firmware file?
Or maybe:
2. If I flash the 198 file, perhaps it will also restore the 198 stock recovery? In that case, perhaps I can just flash the 198 firmware?

Android Q to Pie downgrade?

I updated to Q by flashing via fastboot. I am not happy with it. I tried to downgrade by flashing a stock image via fastboot but I get an error saying the wrong BL is installed. It's asking for an older version.
How can I flash this older version? Or, better yet, how can I flash a stock image or custom ROM of Android Pie without encountering an error?
I've searched and everything I tried from what I found still results in the version error.
If I remember correctly, you'll need to flash using the flash-all script so that it overwrites everything.

You can only downgrade with an unlocked bootloader. Downgrading without can brick your p3xl. After unlocking you can flash the 9.0 firmware and you won't have any bootloader or partition errors it will just work.
