Trouble changing recovery and ROM - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I'm having trouble updating both my recovery and flashing a new ROM.
My bootloader is unlocked and I'm rooted, currently have TWRP 2.8.7.0 and the final release of OxySlim 2.2.0 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/development/rom-oxyslim-t3278169
Whenever I flash a new recovery via adb/fastboot I just get stuck on the One+ bootscreen.
I have to reflash 2.8.7.0 to get access to recovery again.
I've been trying to move to Seraph's ParanoidAndroid here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/development/5-1-1-paranoid-android-5-1-t3205522
Or to Grarak's CM 13 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-official-cyanogenmod-13-t3392278
I've also tried flashing Seraph's HybridRecovery 3.4 with no luck.
Am I missing something? I flashed all the version of OxySlim with no problems.

Quick update.
I've flashed halogenOS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/development/rom-halogenos-oneplus-2-t3377799
It booted up but I couldn't select a language... strange.
So I tried to boot into recovery and it stuck on the boot screen.
I've now flashed the latest TWRP (3.0.2) and it's working. Currently doing a full wipe and trying halogenOS again.

Phone stuck in Bootloop

Hello,
I have a lg g2 d800. I was trying to flash the latest cyanogenmod 13.0 snapshot. I was on cyanogenmod 12.1 the older june snapshot. I booted into recovery and stupidly did not make a backup because I am an idiot. I did a reset before I flashed the rom ( system, cache, dalvik). I flashed the rom and gapps and there were not any problems. I try to reboot the phone and it is just stuck in a boot loop. I have twrp installed. I can access twrp fine. I just need some tips on getting a different nightly or snapshot (I will probably use an older 12.1 snapshot) onto my phone to flash it.
Thanks in advance.

hydrogen os..twrp

i am using the latest hydrogen os..marshmallow...
but i can't restore previously backed up cm13 with the twrp used in installation of hydrogen os.....so i tried flashing normal twrp with fastboot....this led to not even getting to the recovery...i was stuck in the boot logo
so..i again flashed the hydrogen based twrp and tried flashing cm13 with it...but it didn't work either...
so guys...how can i use another rom..with my condition...i can't flash neither recover previous image...
help guys
Try flashing the latest community version of Oxygen OS first with the modified TWRP.
Then flash the stock recovery of Oxygen 2.1.2.
Now flash stock Oxygen 2.1.2 with the stock recovery.
Now you can flash the normal TWRP and restore CM13 image.
PS- I didn't try all these. But I think it should work.
This might help
I found a hybrid TWRP that claims to be compatible with Hydrogen. Oxygen, Vanilla Marshmallow etc., made for the OP2. Here you go.

With that you might be able to get into recovery again and install whatever OS you like. I found this searching for the TWRP decryption problem.

Stuck while flashing Rom zip [solved]

I officially upgraded to 3.0.2, unlocked and rooted my phone.
It was fine for the first few times I flashed multiple ROMs. But ever since I flashed Exodus, I keep having issues switching to different ROM.
A week ago, I flashed "Switch to OOS3_H2OSMMv7" zip and was able to flash Resurrection Remix, but today when I tried switching to CM13 or PA it gets stuck at flashing the ROM zip. I tried flashing the firmware zip again and flash the ROM, but to no avail. It won't flash any ROMs now, just stuck at recovery while flashing the zip.
I have a working fastboot and recovery mode though, so I'm trying to avoid flashing the entire factory image but that seems to be only option left. Does anyone have any clue as to why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Edit: Resurrection Remix gets installed fine, CM13 and PA still giving me issues.
Edit: I downloaded the latest version of CM13 and it works. Earlier I was using June 30 build which seems to have issues with the new firmware. I'll try out the new PA build to see if it fixes that too.
What error does your recovery gives?
Do you have Data Backup?
Can you access ADB while in Recovery?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It does not show any error as it just looping while installing the zip. I have to force shut down the phone to exit it.
Yes, I have backed up all my data
Yes, I am able to access my phone in both ADB and in fastboot modes.
After flashing Custom ROM, Wipe data, cache, d-cache and then reboot.
If still doesnt work try flashing another custom ROM. You can use adb-sideload to flash another zip in recovery mod.

Can't boot to recovery.

Phone is Lenovo A6000, not plus. I installed multiple TWRPs, 3.1.0 and 2.9 something.
I even installed CWM, still couldn't boot to the recovery.
Now, I know how to flash with fastboot, and I know how to boot. Booting doesn't work at all, it says "booting" and never finishes.
Flashing says "okay" and I reboot, do a reboot to recovery, and I get put into bootloader/fastboot.
Any help? I just bought the phone today, no one messed with it.
Edit: Nevermind. CWM installed. How do I install TWRP, so it works? Also, forgot to mention that the phone has the latest stock rom, 4.4.4.
Edit#2: While trying to install "TWRP-3.1.0-Lenovo-A6000.img",
I got an error.
"Can't open /tmp/update.zip (bad)"
"Installation aborted."
Edit#3: Same error with multiple TWRP images.
First of all the twrp 3.1.0 is meant for nougat roms. Since you are flashing that recovery on KitKat rom which it won't support. So first try updating phone to stock lollipop. Then flash twrp 2.8. then take a complete backup(most important) and save it on SD card. After that flash any rom you want. If you are flashing marshmallow or nougat rom then after flashing rom flash 3.1.0 twrp.
I have long ago (10 minutes after last edit) fixed the problem already by flashing stock firmware through some weird software, and then started updating to latest lollipop firmware, and then installed TWRP 3.1 and then installed RR android version 7.1.2. But, thank you for trying to help. I hereby ask a moderator to close the thread because the problem was resolved. Thank you.
