Al... The recovery should be in the zip that constitutes the firmware, my be not in a clear way, but should be there. My guess is once loaded in SP tools (and then "separated" in its parts), you can choose wich parts to tgtransfer. Basically, once you load the Vernee ZIP in SPtools, you see every part of the firmware (the main program, the recovery...) and are able to substitute one of the parts (recovery) with another (proper TWRP). The very first thihg to check if flashing the stock Fw Zip with SPtools is possible. The second one is to know wich part of the phone must be alive to allow that flashing, in order to be conscious where is the risk of bricking the phone. Regards

I cant get the scatter files( lol 5 different. Even tried to manually install drivers). No pc recognises the phone with mtk tools. Is there any other way to extract the boot recovery file so we could use on sp flash? Attached, your welcome To double check.... Is this the Apollo NON LITE scatter file? Has reference to Lite version Regards

No the scatter file is not same as lite version. Have lite and check differences. Were did u get that file?
Yeah i notice that recovery is not in vernee zip(both on their site). Extracted and put your scatter file in same folder. It was then i notice recovery is missing with sp flash.
Is there any way you can extract recovery img with working drivers? If you managed to get them working of course. Becuse i had bad luck with those mtk driver(adb)

Still not received the phone. And no, I do not know how to extract the recovery area from the phone directly. Sure there is a way, but I do not know. The Scatter is the one provided in this thread, and I did not compare with the Lite one. Only saw the "Lite" in the comments and then asked twice... Is most annoying to be so close to the basic rooting andtweakig because the "Lite" versions and so far because there is not a guru working with this hardware... My knowledge is feeble, and cannot go further with a proper guidance. Regards

ok so i tried everything: 1) sp tools with mtk tools 2)adb commands cat /proc/mtd (its said size erasesize name) so i cant see the partitions 3)fastboot also i dont know all the commands i use to use fastboot flash recovery to flash twrp on my oneplus2 4) i will try with Android studio 5)the scatter file i think is corrupted cause sp tools says so altough we can take the results from the scatter file and use sptools to créate a backup but i dont know how to put them and i can mess it up 6) i contacted vernee how the hell cant we have the recovery.img like others phones have
if someone has more ideas or commands for fastboot i can try, together we can:)

To be in safe, I would ask Vernee the "complete" firmware file. Then we would have a "home" to return to in case wrong flashing.... Then we coan proceed. Till then, I would not play with the phone. Regards

ok i booted into twrp and fully functional but i mess it up with the recovery partition i put twrp as the principal and know i now that i need the stock one and use the cmd command everytime we want to boot into twrp recovery fastboot boot c:\adb\recovery.img so any one want to make a bacj up of the recovery stock partition and send it to me?
the thing is that twrp didnt stick and i tried to make it stick so i did, but now everytime i press volum up + power its goes to twrp instead of the chinese one and i think that apollo use the stock recovery to boot or something so i want to recover it since i was stupid and didnt make a back up

Oh, Albert.... Hope someone has the original. But I do not understand... Is the phone booting to the system normally (if you do not press anything)? Cannot you boot from TWRP to "System"? Regards

Oh, Albert.... Hope someone has the original. But I do not understand... Is the phone booting to the system normally (if you do not press anything)? Cannot you boot from TWRP to "System"? Regards if you follow the steps you will just have a temporary twrp fully functional and after a reboot t disapear, but i tried to do it permanent and it seems that vernee make their recovery esential for booting the system if you wanna try here are the steps, follow the carefully and you will be good and after a reboot you will be with normal recovery again i just need someone to make a backup of eveything except user data and send mme to fix mine. PLEASE FOLLOW VERY CAREFULLY THE NEXT STEPS STEPS TO DO ONCE ONLY : 1) Connect your phone to your pc with USB cable. 2) Open CMD (command prompt). 3) Type the next command : adb reboot bootloader (and press enter) 4) Now type the next command : fastboot oem unlock (and press enter) 5) Press volume up (into your phone) to confirm to unlock the bootloader. 6) You will see in the CMD prompt the next messages : "Start unlock flow", and when it will be finished, you will see "OKAY". STEPS TO DO EVERY TIME YOU NEED TWRP RECOVERY : 1) Copy the recovery.img (inside rar) in the first post. 2) Paste the recovery.img inside C:\adb (the folder called "adb") 3) Disable OEM unlocking (Developer options). 4) Connect your phone to your pc with USB cable. 5) Open CMD (command prompt). 6) Type the next command : adb reboot bootloader (and press enter) 7) Type the next command : fastboot boot c:\adb\recovery.img (and press enter) Keep in mind that you need your pc every time you will need to enter into twrp recovery. recovery: www.mediafire.com/file/kzv35tuxarro66i/first_twrp_3.0.2.rari didnt try yet the supersu and busybox although they should work just send me the backup please and just follow the steps and copy your thing to the computer before unlocking the bootloader. thats all
