cannot flash recovery

thanks for your answer; yes i flashed P1a42_S272_160506_ROW_QPST using rawprogram0.xml, lost recovery and root :( alos fastboot flash recovery gave me an error even if the bootloader shows unlocked

OKAY [ 0.579s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: invalid signature and data)

i guess i need to flash the unlocked bootloader again to be able to use custom recovery
unlocked the bootloader but
i got the exact same error while flashing recovery , i would appreciate your help
also tried the adb mode and got this ( refer ss )
please help ,.

i did and i have twrp now. i used phone and it works. but after flashing SuperSU its locked again, only Lenovo logo :(
i flash the unlock qfil, i think it is easy , same like the twrp but get the xml unlocked and for programmer use the s285 programmer... in few mins i will make screens from qfil for u


First use this for BOOTLOADER UNLOCK
LET BOOT and oem unlock in developer

Scond use this for TWRP
after u press download, press volume DOWN and UP until u get TWRP

second photo gyazo.com/48bf90d4005833aac0b641bfb86519de

figured out the problem i had. in qfil, after pressing download i pushed vol up and down buttons immediately. i got in to twrp. the log i shared before is the same but i got in. then flashed the supersu. twice. after couple of restarts i have root on the rom s288.

thanks

On trying to flash TWRP on S288 (Latest Marshmallow ROM), the following error pops up:
FAILED(invalid signature and data).
So since I cannot install custom recovery, even though my bootloader is unlocked, I cannot root my phone. Anyone help?

It seems either the procedure or recovery image file is corrupt.
Try downloading recovery image again and then falsh it.
Try to boot into bootloader and temporarily boot in twrp recovery using adb command if that works then you can use same image file to permanently flash recovery image from adb itself.

hey guys when i try to hot reboot my device ,i found that wi-fi doesn't work and i must do a normal reboot to get it working .
any one try it or any one has a solution. thanks
Hey bro I didn't understand what is hot boot...
1. I restart phone and WiFi works.
2. I switched off then turn on still wifi works.

What else you want me to check exactly...
