[TWRP] [G900H] Recovery Flash Successful, But Still At Stock Android Recovery

Hi all,
My Samsung Galaxy S5 G900H, I updated it to stock Samsung Android 6.0.1. Now I want to root it. AS I've read in some of the other threads that flashing TWRPand then the latest SuperSU works. I went ahead and flashed TWRP using ODIN. Odin was successful and my phone rebooted and phone is working fine. But when I try to go into recovery, stock Android recovery pops up. I wonder why?? Can anyone point me out?

try this recovery you will be solved...
juz flash it with Odin 3.09

As rewards hit Thanks

Use twrp 3.0 by fevax i was had same problen but when u flash it reboot to recovery then to systen

I flashed this same recovery earlier. It is not working for me.

It's the same one I flashed earlier. Not working for me. Should I try to reflash the stock firmware and try again??

"flash it reboot to recovery then to system" Important point. This worked. Instead of rebooting directly after flashing. I flashed recovery, then removed battery to turn device off. Then rebooted into recovery. It WORKED.
I think rebooting into system first rewrites TWRP with stock recovery.

Boot loop after trying to install an older version of Magisk

I had Magisk 16.0, but Magisk Hide didn't work very well. I wanted to see if it would work with Magisk 14. Not it's stuck in a boot loop. It shows the "Samsung Galaxy S8 powered by android" for a few seconds then reboots. I can still boot into TWRP recovery and access the storage. Download mode works too. I tried uninstalling Magisk and flashing the stock boot image. Neither worked. Is there anhthing I can do to make my phone work again without losing my data?
Update: if I have to flash the stock ROM, I'm planning to do the next thing: back up my data partition to an external hard drive with TWRP. After I flash the ROM and wipe everything, I want to reinstall TWRP and restore that backup. Would this cause any issues?

I think you cant, since your phone is bootlooped there is no way to get your data back ..
You should backup your data even before root your phone ..
Just flash latest TWRP img.tar from odin, disable auto reboot from the options on odin , after the success flash you need to press the buttons to enter recovery mode .

You didn't specify your exact phone model, so assuming KLTE
AFAIK aroma does not work well with our TWRP
Can you pull the battery and then boot directly to recovery so you can wipe system/cache/Dalvik and then flash the ROM again?
If recovery is messed up, can you pull battery, then boot to download mode so you can reflash TWRP in Odin/Heimdall, or better yet flash latest stock Rom (caution if you have a g900V/A with stock locked bootloader) in Odin/Heimdall, followed by TWRP?
Post again if you need more help, and try to include as many specifics as possible eg exact phone model, TWRP version, Rom zip filename, Gapps, etc. I'll try to help if I can

I am very sorry for not posting the model number, mine is G900I (KLTEDV), everytime i turn on the phone it just keeps booting onto the recovery and goes to install the viper4android but it fails to do that and reboots again and again, its impossible to do anything basically, not booting onto the rom or anything. Recovery version is TWRP 3.2.2-0, it opens up directly to the zip file which is viper4androidfx-aroma.zip and tries to flash it and crashes and the whole process starts again, pulling the battery didnt break the chain it just keeps rebooting to do that again!

I reflashed a new twrp recovery ver 3.2.3-0, but it still tries to flash that zip file again! Even after deleting the file itself it still tries to flash it and keeps rebooting!
How do i get rid of this twrp loop!? This is so weird!
P.S: After reflashing twrp the phone boots to the rom normally but i cant access recovery anymore, whenever i go to recovery it goes on in an infinite bootloop (cleared cache and dalvik cache using es explorer root), I am also on LineageOs 16.0, tried stock recovery but the stock recovery also keeps bootlooping.
P.S this viper4android is a magisk module!

NVM, solved it by flashing stock rom! Thanks!

Megisk rooting problem in m30s

I am facing issues installing megisk.
I tried megisk moded twrp and moded AP file from frimware.
The problem is when ever i reboot my mobile megisk module is uninstalled automatically

Solved
I lost megisk root when i rebooted normally,
I did get it back by reboot recovery option in TWRP.
