Hi I have the XT1570, running unlocked and with rooted but stock 5.1.1. I have run in to some issues with the recovery part.
Firstly I wanted to go back to the recovery and flash a stock recovery so I could get the OTA for MM, i did that using fastboot, and the flash worked fine according to fastboot, however once i rebooted into recovery it would not load, got an error message, I forget now something about dumping back to bootloader.
Anyway i fixed it got TWRP back on again, then tried a different stock recovery, same thing same error, so i thought I would easily get back to TWRP by the same method, flash again. I was wrong, now fastboot told me , target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
error: cannot load 'twrp-2.8.7.1-clark': No error
Remember this is the exact same TWRP image i have just flashed not 5 mins before.
So i thought ok then, maybe an old image is in there taking up space or something.
C:\Users\David\Desktop\Mfastboot\Mfastboot>fastboo t erase recovery
erasing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) Erase allowed in unlocked state
OKAY [ 0.017s]
finished. total time: 0.019s
Now I get the message:
Invalid boot image header.
Error:failed to load kernel
Boot up failed.
I presume I have deleted everything in the recovery partition, and so messed it up good, but I dont know how to fix it at this point.
I also erased the cache along the way (via fastboot) as I tried to get the OTA update to work anyway just to see what would happen, so I had to erase the cache to cancel updates
I must reiterate, I can boot into Android and use my phone no issues, at all, just I have no recovery at all and this means updates arent going to work, also i cant seem to find a reliable source for a stock recovery.
Some step by step help would be appreciated, as I am not an expert by any means on this.
Thank you.
