It's been a while since I unlocked my mobile's bootloader, following the steps of a you tube video specifically from the Tecnocat channel. Everything was going well until I thought I did not have any system because whenever I started it it went straight to recovery. Install roms and the same. Until I decided to go directly to the bootloader and start it from there. Of surprise it worked, there was no problem with the system. Everything works fine, but every time I turn off the phone and turn it on it starts in recovery and I have to boot it in fasboot mode and from there start the system. It's tedious, and for example I can not do restarts. I already reprimand the recovery from different sources, and I can not find a solution. Please help
Similar issue
I'm having a similar issue except mine started after mistakenly installing a OTA update (Sept. I think) on a xt1687. Rooted (magisk) with TWRP recovery on stock ROM. Every time I boot it goes into recovery mode, and the only way to get into the phone is through TWRP Reboot > Bootloader, then Start.
I tried flashing the latest stock ROM I could find, but still have the same issue. Only now I'm getting nagged with Install System Update New Version NPNS25.137-93-18. I know better now to follow the OTA update guides, but how do I get the phone back to the way it was before the update? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I got this phone from a friend. I tried to install TWRP via ODIN, but I've had some trouble. Initially, when I installed TWRP it didn't appear after I rebooted the phone. After doing some research, I found that this is normal for stock ROM's, and that they tend to replace any custom recovery with the stock one. I learned that in order to access TWRP, I need to remove the batter before rebooting, and then reboot directly into TWRP without letting the OS see the light of day. But when I get to TWRP, the touchscreen breaks. I can't interact with anything. I can still boot into the operating system just fine, but doing so removes the recovery, and I can't interact with TWRP outside of locking it by using the power button. I think this issue could be solved by installing a custom ROM, but I don't know if that's even possible without TWRP. This seems to be a loop of nothing, never going anywhere.
All I need is for the touchscreen to work in TWRP, I can handle the rest from there. Thank you for any help, and Happy Holidays!
Edit: After further research, I've discovered that the problem could lay in the recovery I'm using. I'm trying to install the latest TWRP version found in the link above, but I've tried almost all of them. Is there any information on any specific version of TWRP I should use?
I was from LineageOS 14.1 and I saw a post where the Nougat update has been pushed. Decided to flash A2017U B29 and it worked fine but when I tried to update, it said failed to update. So decided to reinstall the B29 rom again, and it still failed. So I decided to flash back to my stock rom which is A2017G and my phone is now stuck at the ZTE Boot logo. Waited for more than 40 minutes, still stuck there. Decided to go back to recovery and it seems that my TWRP recovery is no longer there. Only able to go back to stock recovery. Tried factory reset, wipe cache and reboot, still stuck on boot logo. Is there any way to fix this? Basically new to Android so dont really know what I'm doing. Just following tutorials that are in this forum. Pretty much f*cked up right now. Would really appreciate if anyone could help in details as Im new to this Android scene.

Did you get this resolved?
I think the problem is caused by flashing the US version bootstack to a none US version phone. It's relatively ok to flash the system/kernel, but flashing other partitions is asking for trouble.

So do you know how to fix it?
Did you try to flash twrp recovery?
Hey everyone I just flashed the stock ROM on my device and just after that I got the update, when I clicked onto update my device just got moved to TWRP and didn't flashed the update too and finally the main issue is that my device just stuck in the TWRP. When I turn on my device It directly loads to the TWRP, I need to go to bootloader menu and then hit start to turn on my device.
Could anyone tell me how to solve this issue??

Can't auto process 'stock' OTA updates with custom recovery. Must use stock recovery plus meet several other prerequisites that are difficult to satisfy on a rooted/modded device. Best option is to restore the nandroid you made before updating. What, no backup?? Reinstall stock image and hope for the best.
After failing with installing different versions of TWRP om my tablet (There is no working version on TWRP for my model- system revert itself to the Stock recovery mode), at some point I noticed, that I can power on tablet and get to Welcome screen and start tablet configuration, but right after 20th seconds system freezes for few seconds and reboots over and over. If I just power on system and let it stay without touching screen it will reboots after 20 second.
If I go to the Recovery mode, there is not reboots. I did system hard reset in Recovery mode no help.
I thought it is problem with ROM, and flashed Stock Rom with Lenovo MOTO Smart Assistant. Same issue with reboots, then I tried some other ROM’s regions with same issue. Before I got this issue, other ROM’s used to work just fine.
QUALCOMM flash utility did not help as well.
I am just interesting is this issue with System board or it is software issue and I can fix this.
I have the same issue. I have been able to root through a patched boot image, but cannot get recovery to flash no matter what. It says all went successfully, but then always reboots. I have the 2GB version.
I just want to install an updated ROM since lenovo abandoned our devices.

I've just spent days trying to get my TB-X704V to flash. I finally found out how. The issue I ran into is the recovery mode never worked. I found one that did. Big caveat here. Once I flashed the recovery image, I could no longer boot the stock rom.
I found the recovery image looking for X704A, and ended up with the files at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QyUGBPi-KZrhSVFLOCs3lHUZ59fpe9KL/view (not my files). This is Chinese/English version. You can change language in the menu.
Follow the directions on flashing it at the quick boot menu and unplug and go into recovery mode.
Download the latest lineage OS: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117916469
Install the OS. The initial boot will take a few minutes, but it will boot.

Thank you so much, I was able to boot straight into TWRP using that Chinese/English image. I spent days last week unsuccessfully trying to boot my TB-X704V into the twrp-3.2.3-0-tb_x704l.img recovery image, but it never took no matter what I tried.

Thank you for all your help mate. This is exactly what I needed. You two are gentlemen and scholars.
Greetings everyone,
today I purchased a new G950F S8. Immediately I wanted to root the device, and in order to do so - installed TWRP via Odin 3.13.3 (flashed the newest version for Exynos models downloaded from their web-site). The flashing process went through fine - everything checked out, at least seemingly.
When I first restarted my phone (followed the instruction), it booted up in it's default recovery, NOT TWRP recovery. That seemed strange, so I double checked the instruction - which claimed I need to quickly boot into recovery, as soon as the flashing process is done and the phone is first restarted. Maybe I was slow.. I re-flashed TWRP, and this time it booted into TWRP. Now, this is when the problem started.
I didn't touch anything within TWRP, I was just satisfied to see it installed. When I tried to restart into System, I got the Samsung logo bootloop. I couldn't power off the phone, nor could I boot it up. I could, however, alternate between download mode and TWRP. I tried changing System format and then changing it back to original (saw that somewhere), but it didn't help. Tried factory reset without results.
Finally I downloaded official stock ROM for Italy, flashed via Odin and everything works fine.
Thing is - I really want to root my phone. Had no issues with my Note 3 previously. I wouldn't want to get into more trouble, so I'm kindly asking for some advice, or a useful link (I searched all over but didn't find anything that would make me feel confident enough not to screw it up again) to how I can do this safely.
I'm using Android 9, official stock ROM for Italy.

When you first flash twrp and boot into twrp you have to format phone from within twrp, then flash no Verity zip and rmm bypass zip. If you reboot system before you format then you get bootloop. There is full instructions in a thread here on XDA.
