Has anyone been able to recover the recovery image for the Droid Turbo? In my dreams, i supposed the nexus 6 recovery twrp would work once rooted. I was wrong, and now no longer have a recovery.

@wrecklesswun, here you go. --> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B15sKU9JEz4CbHRzVVZvRFdRUGM/view?usp=sharing

You can restore it by putting the file on the root of your sd card and using a root shell. And entering.
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilestock.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p36
OR

If youre lazy as long as you have adb installed you can download this extract it and click RunMe. It will restore stock recovery and then reboot you into recovery.

You can build TWRP for the Turbo and flash it all day. Wouldn't work though as it fails the signature checks from the boot loader. You need an unlocked boot loader for a custom recovery to work.
That's what I thought and was just confused why someone else said we could flash. *Shrug* is use my Turbo as a daily driver so I can't poke at it any like I did the DNA when we got that unlocked.

What exactly worked on a bootloader locked Turbo?
Please elaborate?
You must mean stock recovery

@aviwdoowks, yes exactly. He needed to restore the stock recovery on his turbo. Even with WP on as long as you're root you can dd an image to any partition other than system. I simply packaged shell, su request and dd commands into an executable bat file that flashed stock recovery.

Harry,
You wouldn't still happen to have the Droid Turbo XT1254 stock recovery, would you?
