I've posted an updated build of my TWRP fork that has been rebased off the latest upstream version. As usual, the download is on the downloads tab.
fastboot flash recovery twrp-harpia-3.2.3-r1.img
It installs ok, but later, again the phone reverts to the stock recovery.in recovery go to install and then install image. Pick the new version and make sure to select recovery.

So far, I have not modified my system.Mount /system
Go to advanced / file manager
Under /system rename the file recovery-from-boot.p
.
So far, I have not modified my system.
If I rename the file recovery-from-boot.p, will my phone still be able to do OTA updates?
If not, will it be eligible for OTA after I rename the file back to its original name?

Yes, I think so. I use stock Android 7 ROM.renaming any file will permanently modify the partition, causing OTA updates to fail; the system may fail to bootit.
Typically after flashing anything it will take a bit more time the first time you boot into recovery or system.Need help please!
Tried so many times to flash latest TWRP via Fastboot. Flashing works as always, but when I want to boot into TRWP it wont work: The phone freezes at the teamwin screen and wont start the recoveryThat means, I cannot install any custom rom or anything else! Does anybody has the right clue for me to handle that problem?
Thanx,
Sukram.
EDIT: woooha: It works! Just have to wait for nearly two minutes to start! Is that normal?

Sorry, I had been a combination of busy and lazy for the past 8 months, and so I didn't get to do much related to Android. I got back into it last night, and want to try getting the msm8916 common family in shape for official LineageOS 16. I don't want to make any more promises given my other broken promises, but I should be releasing updated TWRP builds for all these devices some time over the next month or so. I'm currently working on catching up on 9 months of kernel security patches.
