Problem getting TWRP working again

Hello guys, i'm having a problem, i had TWRP working fine, but i've installed a stock rom and it replaced TWRP with stock recovery, i did the Odin thingy again but now when i boot holding volume up+power+home it boots to download mode, and not to twrp... Also, is there some sort of bootloader/fastboot mode on this device? So i can use adb
Device is SM-T230NT

Try going for volume down instead of volume up. Bootloader is already unlocked and fastboot is download mode. Just open USB Debugging and you can access ADB

Can't boot into recovery using vol down+power but can boot normally

Hi,
I can't boot into recovery using vol down+power but I can boot normally into OS and from there I can boot into recovery through ADB or third party apps.
I was trying to update my OP2 with new OxygenOS 3.0.2. As my device was rooted so I had to do it manually using TWRP. Till now I was able to boot into recovery by vol down+power.
Before flashing I wiped everything(dalvik+cache+system+data), rebooted into recovery and flashed the OOS3.0.2 full ROM. At this point the installation was successfull but I was not able to boot the OS, it was stuck on the loading screen. After several attempts to boot OS, I finally tried to boot into recovery to flash again, but I was unable to. When I press vol down+power for few sec, the phone switches off with a vibration.
Later I found out that I was supposed to use a modified TWRP. So I flashed the modified TWRP via fastboot and flashed the OOS3.0.2 full ROM again, Now I can boot into OS normally but still I cannot boot into recovery by vol down+power. But the interesting thing is that I can boot into recovery through ADB or third party apps.
I tried flashing the TWRP recovery again with no luck. I thought this could be a problem with boot.img which is contained in ROM itself so I also flashed the ROM again with no luck. Also I am absolutely sure that this is not a hardware issue with by volume buttons as I can use them properly when I boot into OS.
A quick thought, is it possible that the boot.img of the ROM itself is broken? Seems unlikely as I am not seeing anyone else having this issue. But if it is, is it ok to flash the boot.img from OOS2.x version ROM, will that be compatible? Just wanted to be sure before doing this.
Any other thoughts are welcome.

Are you used this command for flashing twrp??
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You should add "flash", otherwise it won't install twrp in your mobile

yes I used that command only

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After flash recovery use this command it will help to boot in twrp "fastboot boot recovery.img " without quotes

yes I know that, thats how I booted into recovery from fastboot for flashing the ROM. But I should be able to boot into recovery by vol down+power. That is why I posted this question.

Will you please send me screenshot of cmd?? after flash recover

Lenovo A6000 plus on DU with a peculiar problem!!!

First of all, i'm a noob so please don't mind any technical mistakes.
I recently flashed RR on my device with TWRP, and all was working quite fine.
But then, I decided to try out DU, and flashed it. But my phone was stuck on the lock screen with a "com.android.phone stopped working" message.
I used ADB to wipe my data ( for if there were any conflicts) using : fastboot -w
My phone now is working fine, But i've lost root access, My phone DOESN"T BOOT INTO RECOVERY.. Holding vol+ and power just ends up in a screen with the RR logo( yes RR, even after flashing DU).
I've tried to flash TWRP using ADB again but it's not working.
ROM manager says I've got TWRP and CWM installed.
Also Kingo and Framaroot aren't working.
I would really want to get back:
1.Root access
2.TWRP
Some help will really be appreciated....

Press vol up+down and power button simultaneously, to access recovery.

I've tried that, my phone just shows the RR logo screen and nothing else.

Alternate method
dude you just need a pc with adb driver installed then go to bootloader mode by pressing vol- and power button, then using adb command write (fastboot boot recovery.img).
Here recovery.img is ur twrp recovery or other,then it will flash recovery.img in ur phone and automatically go into the (twrp) recovery.
(u need to copy recovery.img in ur adb folder before u write that command)

I have done that... It does flash twrp onto my phone..but my still doesnt boot into twrp...

then use another recovery, sevenmax twrp recovery is the best.

Cannot boot into recovery

I flashed a modified stock lollipop rom while on kitkat kernel using TWRP 3.2.1 for KitKat. The rom is booted up without any trouble, but now I cannot boot into recovery mode. I tried flashing different recovery, both for lollipop and kitkat version, via Mobile uncle tools and dd command in terminal emulator. Tried rebooting via power off and pressing volume and power, from the power menu button and reboot recovery command. But the phone doesn't boot into recovery, it vibrates 2 times, shows bootlogo 2 times and restarts normally. Is there any way to fix it (preferably without SP flash tool, because I don't have a PC nearby)

Bricked my phone when updating stock firmware..Can not enter recovery...

I downloaded from asus website the stock firmware and when installing it screen goes black and not phone won't turn on..Maybe the issue is that i was using lineage recovery instead of stock recovery when updating...Not sure, does not matter...
Now when turning on phone is stuck for a while on asus logo and then shutdowns...Same happens when I try to boot into recovery...I can access fastboot though...
I have tried to flash several recoveries with fastboot, using fastboot flash recovery 'name.img' even though writing recovery shows okay, I still can not boot into recovery after...
Is there anyway I can unbrick my device? I read something about QFIL and QPST but have not figured how to use it or find any tutorial...
