Root JuopunutBear Screw Up - No Clue

[EHokie]

Third phone getting s-off. S-off succeeded, but failed to ask about new hboot. I can now boot to system, but can't get into recovery or write to it. Whenever I try to access recovery, I get the JB screen, and trying to push a recovery via ADB yields:

writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Anyone have any ideas?

Are you running the adb commands as an administrator on Windows, or Root on Linux?

You need elevated privileges to do that I believe.

I had something like that but I had to use jbear and cmd together. 1st I did flash recovery.IMG or whatever the command was but for some reason the phone wouldn't reboot so while it was doing it I clicked on bear and it rebooted it into boot loader but while it reboot I guess it flashed recovery. This isn't something I found on the jbear website I had to come up wit my own fix

That means your bootloader is locked. You need either an unlocked stock bootloader or a custom hboot to run fastboot commands like "flash" and "boot" and I recommend an hboot like JBear 1.50.5050 or ENG 1.04 rather than unlocking stock, but there is a zip file available now to change it back to "locked" instead of "relocked" if you do the unlock instead.

More details about it are in this post.

As an addition to what ramjet73 suggested, if you do want to unlock the bootloader you can easily do that by visiting this thread:

and flashing the unlock_bootloader.zip through recovery.
