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!

Unable to boot into recovery (lollipop i9505)

I have TWRP installed and I booted into recovery, backed up my rom and everything was fine. A few minutes later I tried booting into TWRP again but it only rebooted the phone. It shows booting recovery above the Samsung logo then reboots the phone. I used apps like quick boot but yet still reboots the phone
Have you tried turning it off and then booting into recovery with the key combo?

Yup, reboots back
Try reflashing recovery. Or flash a different version.

Did you root it at first ? If not do so ,i also had that issue and was solved by rooting,normally root is not required for Flashing TWRP but still...
The same problem... I think the rom issue
Flash the latest stock ROM and try to enter recovery.

[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.

Update your twrp, there's no need to use that old version... my phone reboots when it wants when it has opd twrp versions
Download twrp 3.1.1-0
Put it on your phone, maybe via adb or through mtp if you have it
Go to Install -> hit the button on the right that says 'Install image'
Find the TWRP.img and install it, it will prompt you where to install it, put 'recovery'
Followed you instructions, but now i cant get into TWRP or the OS ):
Tried to flash it with axon7tool on pc, but got the same result, but when I tried to flash the 3.0.2. again, it worked.

Don't use axon7tool for this... you already have TWRP, the only thing you have to use axon7tool for is to install twrp when you have the stock recovery. after you have twrp on the phone just try not to use the PC except for maybe miflash
I tried both of this options.
Flashing new version of twrp through the old twrp resulted in black screen when i try to get to recovery.
So I flashed the old twrp from the pc, tried to flash the new one using the same method but it the same as i flashed it through the old twrp. (which mean that when i get to the recovery i get black screen)
ATM the situation is the same, system wont boot stuck on zte logo, twrp is 3.0.2.2 (there is another method to flash newer twrp?)
There is another option?
After wiping system in twrp i was able to install supersu, which means i completed this guide

Wait, what did you do? Did you install everything again after wiping system?
Ya, afte i wiped the system it allowed me to install the supersu without interrupts, but it did not helped.
Anyway i manged to install purefusion os, system booted up, after that the new twrp updated successfully.

You installed SuperSU without a system, and the phone did not boot up? Amirite?
what i did was wipe system dalvik cache, cache, after that install bootstack and the system files, and after that the supersu.
before i wiped the system, when i tried to install the supersu the twrp collapsed, after that it installed it but did not helped to make the system boot.

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 .

I already have TWRP.

I would like some help please

I kind of messed up. I have had no issues up till now. I have flashed Baikal os and found there were problems with youtube. I figured it was just that rom then found that every other rom I tried had the same issue. I flashed the stock Nougat (on accident mind you) and thought I could just do the update to 8.1 oreo. The issue is that it restarted into twrp. From there, I can't boot into any rom. I haven't tried stock rom but everything I have tried does not work. When twrp is finished flashing both the rom and gapps, I clean (sometimes not) the cache and restart into system. It keeps rebooting into twrp instead of into the rom. What should I do? I have never had this issue before...
Update: I can only boot into my phone if I boot from the bootloader. I can't boot from recovery, like clicking on boot into system from recovery.
Update # 2: using the tool by drtechie, I flashed the Oreo stock firmware/rom. The issue is that even with the recovery wiped, something keeps making my phone try to boot into recovery. I got the screen for people who dont have a custom recovery installed. Still clueless. Getting desperate because I kind of want my g5 plus back...
Factory reset your phone from twrp
I don't understand exactly what you are trying to say but if your problem is "Twrp bootloop means no matter what you do you are not able to get out from twrp" than type this in twrp terminal
In twrp terminal :
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/soc/7824900.sdhci/by-name/misc
And again reboot to recovery. Flash any rom now you will be able to boot into system
