[Q] "No command." error while trying to access recovery?

[abhaas sharma]

I think u should download CMW from its own website and the latest version of it as I was having problem with TWRP. I think this should work.

I have unlocked the bootloader on my Moto G.
I have also flashed ClockworkMod Touch sucsessfully, but it did not boot after the first reboot, even when I said yes to "Disabling the stock recovery reflashing".
Now, whenever I enter fastboot mode (POWER + VOLDOWN) and select RECOVERY, it comes up with "No command." and a picture of an android lying down, with its front open, with warning symbol. (See attached)
I have tried reflashing the recovery using fastboot, but the same problem happens.
Any help?

Got same error after OTA Update to 5.0.2.
Getting this error just hold power for 3sec, Keep Holding and tap vol+ an you are in.

Hi, I also upgrade my moto g to lollipop 5.0.2 using OTA update, the first condition of my android was unlocked, rooted and CWM installed, after I upgrade it to lollipop all of my android conditions is gone except the unlock, how did you do the sequence of your way? is it hold the power button first then hold the vol up or hold vol up first then push the power button or push those button in a same time then lose the power button after 3 seconds?

update: I have tried your method, but it seems that it doesn't work on my moto g, is there something I did wrong? (FYI: I've tried all method that I mentioned above)

update2: I finally able to enter recovery mode, the way I did this is by press and hold Power Button and then tap Volume UP. When I write this update my phone is still wiping the cache, I do not know if this is the way lollipop wiping the cache or my android's cache is big but it tooks about 1 minute.

How long had you held it for, and was it directly from the 'no command' screen?

Select "Recovery" in the screen message "no command" press Power after Vol+ and release.

Unable to install custom recovery on Moto G(XT1033) last running 5.0.2 OTA

I have a Moto G(XT1033) that went out of charge one day and refused to boot again. I now see the Motorola splash screen, but only a blank screen after that - no touch response or any thing.

I successfully unlocked my phone, and attempted to install custom recoveries. Here is the procedure I followed

1. Erased the recovery using mfastboot-v2 (normal fastboot did not help either) twice as instructed
   

   >mfastboot erase recovery
   erasing 'recovery'...
   (bootloader) Erase allowed in unlocked state
   OKAY [  0.036s]
   finished. total time: 0.036s

2. Flashed the recovery image using mfastboot-v2 (normal fastboot did not help either) twice as instructed in post #15. I used the twrp 2.8.7.0-falcon images given in the concerned TWRP thread as well as the 2.8.6.0 official version given on the TWRP website
   

   >mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0.-falcon_STOCK.img
   target max-sparse-size: 256MB
   sending 'recovery' (10014 KB)...
   OKAY [  0.369s]
   writing 'recovery'...
   OKAY [  0.213s]
   finished. total time: 0.587s

3. Disconnected USB
4. Directly went to recovery by selecting VolDown, then VolUp

However, it boots to the stock recovery screen with Android logo on its back. I have to press Power+VolUp to enter stock recovery menu.

I have also tried installing clockwork recoveries - 6.0.4.7-falcon version from one of the threads (can't remember which) and philz recovery from the thread on xda, but it was no use - stock still remains.

How do I install custom recoveries?

 

[silentvisitor]

Can somebody kindly provide a link for CWM for OTUS as I couldn't find it with Google ?
I did not have much luck with TWRP. Here is my issue with it.

Any advise is more than welcome !

Thank you !

No Command Error Fix

Press volume up for 10 seconds and then just tap power button once and release both.

Nope Bro , i tried on all mobiles

the solution is that keep pressing again and again all buttons ( volume up , down , power , home ) and suddenly screen of no command will change nd then stop pressing the buttons

I had the same error some days ago event posted it on this forum but i later got it to work, i posted it on my blog here Solution to Moto G Android on Recovery Mode ‘no command’

 

[Professor Gibbins]

The problem is that you are using an unsupported recovery that hasn't been updated for years. I would assume that the method used to disabled the stock recovery overwrite is no longer working therefore CWM still gets replaced by the stock recovery. I would recommend flashing TWRP, which is currently under active development, and contains all of the functionality of CWM.

Also, the 'mismatched partition size' error is normal when flashing custom recoveries.

Oops, looks like this thread is alot older and longer than I thought...

 

[marsheldragon]

Your solution it worked for me, thanks a lot

It worked, after i guess i pressed up and power button for 3-4 times.

Something similar for me
Thanks

I UNDERSTAND NOW, when you go to bootloader screen, press the vol down button to go to the option "recovery" and select it with the VOL UP button, this is it.

 

[vinokirk]

What worked for me was, when I got to the 'no command' screen, I just pressed the volume up and power buttons frantically, then the recovery menu came up!

 

[SomadhaR]

i also have the same problem as u had

on the command window it says "unable to find device'" "twrp max size" i have tried many times but failed

 

[Crazy_coder]

just flash twrp-merlin-2.8.7-r7.img it solved my problem

 

[WishSaler]

well, i read a lot about this kind of problem , still cannot find solution for my particular issue. I have screen locked tablet with only one button (Power) and reset hole . I managed to get to recovery mode with holding power button and needle in reset hole , tablet response with no command , most of solutions here (and in other sites in net) suggest to try key combination and this is kinda hard when you have only one button available. Did someone have some solution for this cuirious situation?
p.s.: i tried again power+reset but every time when i hit reset tablet just reseting . tried hold power button - nothing , the only action i can get is when i tab twice power button and tablet reset again.
