I just unlock my pixel 4.
When I do "fastboot boot twp.img" the devices boot into twrp logo screen only. Never enters the menu mode..
However if i downgrade and boot in twrp 3.4.xxx.img it boots into twp but it cannot read the internal storage....
Never encounter such problem...
Any help or tips is much appreciated!

I decided to unlock the bootloader so that i could flash TWRP recovery but after unlocking the bootloader on my device, it has been stuck on the logo screen with "powered by android" under it. I have tried using fastboot to clear userdata & cache but that just leads to my phone again being stuck on the logo screen. The device also can't boot into recovery. When I chose to power off in fastboot it causes me to be stuck on the logo screen. Any help is appreciated I am on android oreo btw
Did you try a back to stock zip? go to fastboot and run flash-all.bat, while your device is plugged in ofcourse.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Let me guess.
You unlocked the boot loader and flashed TWRP and now you are looping, right?
There is no compatible TWRP that is compatible with Oreo on this phone.
You cannot leave TWRP installed. You can only install it along enough to get the recovery to boot.
You then must flash the stock boot image.
I had this problem tonight also. In my case I suspect it had to do with the install of magisk in which I checked both boxes and patched the bootloader. on reboot I was stuck on boot. Just wanted to add my solution. I got the pie back to stock zip here https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/stock-7-1-1-nmj20d-t3701681 then I put it into the adb folder and ran the flashall.bat script. I tried the no wipe one and it saved my information. very happy I didnt have to resetup my phone in the end.
did you remember to flash a stock boot.img before flashing magisk (to clear TWRP?)
So I was installing magisk with the help of twrp, but I was having a difficult time finding the magisk zip in twrp. Had rebooted the device and booted to fastboot and recovery mode for around for more than 30 times. Now, this is the situation of my device: its right now switched off. I can enter the twrp, i can access the fastboot mode but if I try to normally switch it on, the boot is stuck at the Asus logo. Nothing happens after it. From the Asus logo, i am able to swtich it off and move to fastboot and twrp. Help me please.
Maybe flash decrypt zip ?
Try this. go back to twrp, abd instead of reboot phone, press power off. then press power on button manually. Works everytime for me
Hi,
I have been using my P Smart (FIG-LX1) for a while with LineageOS 16 and decided to move on to Android 10. Installed LineageOS 17.1 (found it on this forum) and pph-Magisk 20.3 for root - it did work, but the system was unstable so i decided to try AOSP 10.0 instead. I entered TWRP, wiped cache,dalvik,system and data, flashed the ROM, gapps etc. It was advised to now flash stock recovery and use it to do a factory reset - and now i'm stuck here.
After flashing the recovery_ramdisk img the phone stopped being able to enter any recovery at all. The system itself does not boot (stuck on the "Your device has been unlocked (...) Your device is booting now..." screen forever), the recovery never appears (previously in the start screen with 'unlocked device' warning it used to suggest pressing volume UP to enter recovery, now it only shows "Your device is booting now"). As i can still access fastboot, I tried flashing TWRP again - the TWRP splash screen does appear, but the phone gets stuck on it. Also tried flashing another system's img - nothing changed.
Is there anything I can do or did i just brick it completely?
Thanks for help!
SOLVED:
Apparently running fastboot erase on system and userdata partitions made me able to boot into recovery/erecovery again. I do have another problem now, but it's not connected with this one so I will create another thread for that.
Could you try help me? I can't even get ADB to work anymore
I successfully rooted the phone and installed magisk etc. but I want to further and wanna mess around a bit. So I need TWRP to back up my everything. However, whenever I flash TWRP to both slots phone deletes OS or TWRP claims so. Therefore I flash the OS and do all the things over again and the cycle continues. What can be the cause for TWRP deleting OS or saying so. Is it can be caused I flash the wrong TWRP? I used tool all in one to only boot to twrp but it just stucks me in the fastboot logo and nothing happens for long time. I know when flash it it boots in seconds.
And for FTM mode I try to enter the ftm mode but it stucks on boot logo and doesnt bring any chinese characthers again for long time. What can be the cause?
All the helps would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
Just unlocked the bootloader, download twrp for flame. Put the phone in fastboot mode, type in "./fastboot boot twrp xxxx", the phone gets the data and boots, but stuck on twrp flash screen...
Any idea?
