Why Can't I Install TWRP Recovery Through TWRP Manager? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I cant install TWRP Recovery through TWRP Manager. When I try to, I get this error:
Flashing recovery was unsuccessful. Either you already have this recovery installed or another error has occurred.”
I think this because i installed CWM and it may have blocked TWRP from installing. But I really dont know, I'm just speculating.
I can still go into TWRP Recovery through Rashr. But I want to go into it rhrough TWRP Mangaer. How do I get into TWRP Recovery through TWRP Manager?

use one of the toolkits to use ADB to manage things ! You'll be much happier

Unable to boot into recovery

I flashed a new rom yesterday and tried to go back and flash a kernel but I can't get into recovery. Just a black screen 705 fastboot
I installed twrp and tried reinstalling recovery but still didn't work

Twrp should still be there. That rom you installed probably had a incompatible kernel which is what is sending you into fastboot. If you cant get into recovery for some off the wall reason flash back to stock with a tot or kdz.
any off the wall ideas on how to get into recovery

Am I to understand this as you installed the TWRP Manager apk? Or do we read this as TWRP is the recovery you had originally installed? (Not trying to be funny here)
If the TWRP Manager was used from within the ROM, instead, use Flashify to reflash the recovery, not TWRP manager. Get the IMG file from HERE first, and tell flashify where you saved it.
If you are completely unable to boot as well as not access recovery, you will have to start from scratch. Follow THESE instructions to get back to stock and start over. (Choose Restoring Stock/Removing Root Flag)

Can't install custom recovery

I've tried to flash CWM Recovery and TWRP Recovery and it doesn't work. Odin says it's all ok, but I just always end up on stock recovery. I have the Canadian variant.
Edit: Nevermind. I managed to root it without a custom recovery, and then installed TWRP Manager from the app store, and got the custom recovery from there.

Can't boot into recovery

I can flash a new recovery or update the recovery through flashify or TWRP Manager however I cannot actually get into twrp it just hangs there forever. Anyway to fix this?

Bootloop or just bad instalation?

Backgrond: Fresh new device. I unlocked bootloader through the all in one toolbox here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3358711) to unlock bootlaoder successfully and install twrp ( I chose this version TWRP 3.2.1 Blu Spark OP5T).
I unlock my bootloader successfully and then tried to install superSU through twrp. I realized at the time of TWRP installation, that I didnt have SUPERsu on my device so I booted up my phone, downloaded Super SU from (http://www.supersu.com/download) and then went back into recovery mode. I was able to install the file through twrp but now I'm stuck on the OnePlus Screen.
On the toolkit screen there was a message saying
"if you flash a modified recovery and you dont root your stock rom (or flash another rom) you will brick you phone.
Is that what I did? Should I flash a custom rom?
I can access fastboot, recovery, etc and use adb sideload. I thought maybe I installed the wrong super user file so I flashed a new one through adb sideload (this file SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502) but that didnt do anything either.
What should I do?

Unable to boot into TWRP

So, I successfully unlocked the bootloader, then followed the instructions to install TWRP (which worked initially because I was able to access TWRP immediately after flashing). But how to I access it again once I'm back in the OS? When I click reboot to recovery it always reverts back to the stock recovery. I'm still on the stock OS, but I just assumed once TWRP was installed I could boot into it from there. What am I missing?
Solved the problem by getting Magisk installed and using Flashify app to flash the downloaded TWRP img.
@brGabriel just use the fastboot commands as mentioned by manojpawarsj12;
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Don't mess around with Flashify, it's dated and a good way to brick your phone...
