I once thought my phone can't accept a custom recovery because of the fact that the custom recovery I got from this forum never worked but after trying so many ways I even compiled a custom recovery myself with a samsung j5 twrp recovery.The recovery I compiled can flash in my device and it works but the only problem with it is that it shows my internal storage as (0MB) and when I flash a supersu zip with it,it shows that it is flashing but it fails.It gives me an error message that "Failed to mount /system,cache,firmware,etc.(Invalid argument)

According to your thread @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-15954.html , its MT6580 running on Android 6 and the problem was that it kept booting to stock recovery despite you flashing TWRP.
Thats not necessarily a problem with the recovery but with the Build Number of your phone.
Upload the TWRP you ported so I can take a look at where the storage problem is coming from

Hovatek you are a genius.I did it.I took the script you've sent me and I deleted all the script in the twrp.fstab and pasted the script you gave me on twrp.fstab.Then it worked and I even rooted my device now using my twrp recovery.Thanks a lot.I've been struggling for too long trying to root my phone.Thank you very much.

Hi guys, I'm having the same problem, can't flash any custom recovery. I've got the u989 pro stock ROM, since the previous ROM I flashed ( u989 stock ROM) bricked my phone. When I use so flashtool or even fastboot to flash a custom recovery, the phone boots to the logo screen, after 1min reboots normally. What am I doing wrong? Please assist if possible.

Reading the above post, should I edit the system/etc/recovery.fstab found in the system.IMG or the custom recovery.IMG
