After flashing TWRP for the first time (especially TWRP 3.2.3 by SagarMakhar https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=3700668719832241089) you have to wait for nearly 5 min for first decryption to fail.
Afterwards it works as usual.
You will get TWRP logo on screen and have to wait until you get into MENU.
If it is a bootloop you will not bootloop into TWRP but on system.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply, but u didn't get my problem, this is not the first time I'm flashing twrp, this happened after I changed from one rom to another, twrp was working fine until now.
And the problem is, if I try to boot into twrp it shows the twrp logo then immediately a black screen comes up then the twrp logo again and so on indefinitely.
I've tried flashing twrp again through fastboot, it succeeds but same thing happens when I boot into twrp again. I've tried different twrp versions as well.
Directly booting from fastboot doesn't work and spits out an error. (FAILED remote: unknown command)
Do u suggest I try to go back to stock rom using the 247 fastboot firmware?

Fastboot flash to 247 will resolve the issue if it was caused due to any ROM.
May be some partition got formatted.

Ok I have a few doubts regarding going back to stock.
This is the guide that I'm supposed to follow right, the one in the OP by you? https://forum.xda-developers.com/as...ow-to/guide-revert-to-stock-rom-lock-t3798420
Is it alright if I am in a custom rom at the moment, can i still flash the fastboot firmware?
And is it safe for me to do it right now with twrp still kinda present?
Thank You so much for your help, really appreciate it
Edit: Ok just realized your post answers all of my questions but thanks anyway

[SOLVED] Recovery loop - Bricked? - Reboot Mode Flag: Recovery

Hello everyone,
I'm not new to flashing and ROMs, so I tried flashing the Android L AOSP build from here. I succeded and wanted to install gapps through TWRP. I don't exactly know what I did. Now when I power on my device, I always get stuck in recovery. I already reflashed the 4.4 factory image and the AOSP lollipop build serveral times, but my fastboot info still says "Reboot Mode Flag: Recovery".
Summary: Fastboot works, I can flash imgs. Every time I start/restart it reboots to recovery.
I also tried relocking and unlocking, but I had no luck.
I hope I get my Nexus 10 working again.

Boot into fastboot and try to wipe the /misc partition....

How did you flash the android 5.0 zip ?
Thx Josh
I extracted the imgs from the zip and fastboot flashed them one by one. Then I flashed twrp (the stock recovery didn't work seither), rebooted to twrp and installed pa pico gapps with modified script. When I rebooted, that worked. I booted to recovery a few times to make the Google Now Launcher a system app. Since that it is only rebooting to recovery.
I doubt that it's bricked.
Have you tried flashing the factory image KTU84P exactly like instructed here? :
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
Nope I already tried that..
once when i was upgrading from 4.3 to 4.4 i experienced something very similar. nothing worked.
the way i fixed it was to relock and then unlock the bootloader (even though it appeared unlocked, something was wrong.) I hope this helps.
I finally got it working. Thanks for the time you spent helping anyway.. So I flashed CWM through fastboot and restarted to recovery. CWM cleared the boot flag properly, which TWRP didn't. Now booting

[SOLVED] stuck on boot logo - only fastboot mode - no recovery

Hi there.
I used my OP2 with Oxygen OS for a while, so today I decided to switch to kingmercians H2OS.
I must say I had fastboot OEM unlocked, TWRP 2.8.7.0 installed and 100% working.
so I took a backup of my OxygenOS via TWRP, then wiped and flashed kingmercians H2OS.
played with it for some minutes, then I didn't find it worth the upgrade.
and now my hell comes.
I didn't read that I had to flash a revert to lollipop script .zip
so I rebooted into TWRP, went to "restore", and selected my Oxygen OS backup I previously made.
restore was successfully, and swiped to reboot.
then phone didn't start. I am stuck at boot [the one with oneplus logo and powered by android] and nothing changes.
I tried to enter recovery with buttons combo [power + volume down], but nothing happens, phone just starts at boot logo.
I can only enter in fastboot mode, nothing more.
I also tried re-flashing TWRP from fastboot, but with no clue accessing it [fastboot command says it successfully transferred TWRP .img file, but I cannot enter it].
is there any way I can get my OP2 to work once more?
thanks to anyone who wants to help me!

Exodus rom, No recovery
Hi
I used the fix, and get the TWRP on my OP2, but I'm Running on the exodus rom, build 06/10/2016. And after entering recovery mod, and reboot, The phone stay on the exodus logo, then after a few minutes, it restarted. So I get recovery, but now I can't use the phone.
Again, used the Twrp to flash the boot image, and restart. So far so good, but again, I lost recovery mode.
Im I doing something wrong?
I changed the twrp in the fix to get the 3.0.2.0 version, but again, enter recovery and system don't load. So I flashed boot, and recovery, but again, just get one of the two of them.
Tried the TWRP Manager to install it, but It says I already have another versiĆ³n or something gone wrong. (yes the manager says TWRP is not installed)
Tried flashify to install TWRP, downloaded, flashed, but again there is no recovery.
Can someone help me please
Thanks

You have to install a custom rom or root to make twrp permanent, if you don't do that it will install always after the first boot the stock recovery.

You need to reflash twrp with the bootloader like the first time.

When you have flashed twrp, you do the buton combination to enter twrp, if you fail to enter twrp a the phone boots into system the stock recovery will be reflashed so you have to reflash twrp.
Try making these:
When you are in the bootloader after flashing twrp press button down+ power button. When the screen turns off quickly stop pressing power button and quickly press again until the lg logo appear.
When the lg logo appear stop pressing power button, quickly press again and stop pressing the power button and press again quickly until you see twrp logo.
These method works for me for booting twrp easily
The stock recovery appears but you have to select the factory reset option and it will boot into TWRP

Hey, i have the same Problem, my TWRP broke, i can't boot into recovery and my Device ist not listed in fastboot mode. Can someone help me out?
I get the ring in windows when i plugin but its not recognizing.. Can someone pls help me out?
Okay, I'm going to try to explain it, and see if I can succeed where others have not.
You install TWRP by booting to bootloader and using fastboot to push a new recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
It seems like you accomplished that successfully. The next step is to immediately boot to recovery; do not boot the phone to system first. You will get the factory prompts for wiping data, but it will not actually wipe your data this time. Instead it will boot to TWRP.
Now, while you are in TWRP, you need to either root (flash Magisk) or install a custom ROM. If you do not, your next boot to system will remove TWRP and restore the stock recovery. If that happens, then the data-wiping prompts the next time you boot to recovery are real and the phone will wipe. So you MUST - must must must - root or install a custom ROM while you have TWRP up, in order for TWRP to persist.
If you have already experienced this problem, you need to start over at the beginning; flash TWRP again, and then follow the rest of these directions.
Maybe this will help clear up the problem for you guys.

I only manage to see the TWRP welcome screen and the the phone automatically reboots to system

WTF is going on?
I have repeated the process many many times and always the same. What i am missing here?!?!?

Got the same problem. I unlocked Bootloader, checked if unlocked (yes). After flashing TWRP i see the TeamWin Screen and phone boot again. There is no TeamWin Menu.

Anybody an idea?

With 3.2.1.0, 3.2.2.0 and 3.2.3.0 it only briefly shows the TWRP screen and then boots into system anyway.
With 3.1.1.0 the key combination to boot into TWRP as with the other versions above simply doesn't work, again it directly boots into system without even showing the TWRP screen.
I'm stuck with a resetted phone because of this bull****, because some instructions said "oh, the reset dialog will not really reset your data..." - yeah thanks for nothing, buddy.
So what now?
EDIT: I got it working using TWRP 3.1.1.0, but the same version from the OFFICIAL site didn't work, as I described above.
The only 3.1.1.0 TWRP that works with my phone is the one from this Link: http://downloads.codefi.re/rashed/g6/
(which is linked ... somewhere here in the Forum, don't remember which thread)

Stuck in black screen, can't boot into fastboot mode

I got my Mi A1 today and it came with Android 7 installed, so I decided to install LOS. I unlocked the bootloader and then I booted into TWRP using fastboot (I didn't flash it), it gave that "system is read-only" warning. I tried to reboot to system without doing anything and it was stuck in a boot loop. Then I booted into TWRP again and flashed LOS sucessfully. When I tried to flash gapps, however, it failed claiming I was still running Android 7. I rebooted and it booted sucessfully into LOS, but that was the last time the phone ever booted. Now it shows the unlocked bootloader message and then gets stuck in a blinking black screen. I can't even boot into recovery or fastboot anymore.

It seems you will have to flash stock ROM using Mi Flash (no idea how to use it so search it) and, once is done, flash LOS again.

I somehow managed to get to fastboot and then I used MiFlash to flash the stock rom. I'm back to the bootloop, which is an improvement, because at least I can consistently get into recovery and fastboot.
The phone got stuck in that black screen after I tried to flash LOS, should I actually do it again?
EDIT: I flashed the stock rom a second time and it's working again. I don't know why, but I'll take it.

Update to stock Pie before trying to reinstall LOS again. Hope this time works.

You should install 1.0.8.0firmware first before install 9 ROM!?

Weird One Plus 6T Behavior

Hello fellow XDA members!
My 6T, has a issue that i cant figure out! Its runs fine, currently on OS 10.3.8
But when i try to load a custom recovery (TWRP, Paint it Black) I enter the command on my pc (fastboot boot twrp.img) It says on my pc that it booted the recovery but on my phone it goes into fastboot mode logo, and stays there for like 10 seconds, and then i get the famous Qualcomm CrashDump Mode. I have restored the phone as per the instructions (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/installing-updating-backup-and-restore-guide-for-op6-6t.4254987/) and the phone restore perfectly, but it wont let me flash a custom recovery to root it. Can someone help please?
Would you specify which version of TWRP you are trying to boot please?
