Hi guys, having an issue loading into TWRP recovery on my Nexus 5X. I upgraded to 3.0.2 from 2.8.7 (I was having issues with storage not being mounted when trying to flash gapps, so a thread suggested upgrading TWRP).
I flashed the new TWRP with flashboot and it flashed fine, but when I rebooted into recovery it booted my into CM. I have tried a few methods to get it to boot but to no avail. I saw in another post to use fastboot and erase recovery before flashing, that didn't work either. I even tried doing a method using Odin, but my phone won't boot into that download mode either... it just continues straight to CM. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hi, weird problem - I've flashed the cm_endeavoru-ota-eng.noeri_021 rom, but can't get into Clockwork recovery anymore. The phone just reboots back into the OS every time. I've reflashed the Clockword recovery (5.8.4.0) using the All-in-One Toolkit but same problem.
I've also tried Teamwin recovery but that just gets to the boot screen then reboots too.
Any idea how I can flash and get into a Recovery? Is it a problem with the actual ROM?
Solved, for anyone having a similar problem:
fastboot erase cache
many thanks
I have a Samsung Galaxy G4 (T-Mobile version). I had a boot loop on Recovery problem with it. I reflashed the recovery a couple of times, TWRP and CM recovery. Neither wants to start up when I try to boot into recovery. (I have tried adb and using the keys.) Usually when I would flash a new kernel it would drop into recovery. When I upgraded to the nightlies, it went into recovery, installed the kernel, and rebooted.
Now I have a CM 13 kernel, but I am missing the proper gapps package.
Is there a way to install the gapps package with heimdall? Is there a trustable twrp app I can sideload? Is there a trick to get gapps to install with adb?
Looking for a useful solution. Thanks!
After flashing twrp using Odin, are you immediately trying to boot into recovery or are you restarting the phone and booting the rom?
So, I was attempting to root my phone(CanvasA1- 4GB) today running stock android marshmallow(6.0.1) , I successfully unlocked the boot loader in fastboot using adb, after which I flashed TWRP recovery, Which was successful but then, When I rebooted into recovery, I saw my old stock google's recovery running , I tried 2-3 more times flashing the recovery in fastboot but the probem was still the same :crying:. Then I came to know that we have to flash a special type of boot img of some 17.5mb approx, When I attempted to flash this "boot" image, I received an error saying file size too large, Hence I couldn't flash it, I am still running the stock recovery, With my bootloader unlocked, I need to root my phone, Please help someone, Thanks in advance .

You can search for Android One Toolkit. Iwas encountering the same problem but this app solved my Problem.
Sorry dont have Link for the Same.
Same here. I unlocked the bootloader successfully and flashed TWRP recovery. But it shows system/default recovery only. Now stuck in bootloop.
Tried clearing cache/date etc. nothing worked. Don't know what to do.
So I recently updated my op3 to 3.5.2 Community Build of oxygen OS. It was working well with a few changes from the official builds but a little time passed and the 3.5.3 Community Build was released. Of course I wanted to update so I downloaded it and tried to update but when it booted into the recovery it froze on the logo. So I downloaded the update on the computer and flashed twrp to the recovery and booted into the recovery and it froze again. Currently i have no Recovery and no access to adb.
*When trying to flash a recovery it says it was done successfully but freezes when trying to boot into it.
Normal OS booting is unaffected.
When executing the command "fastboot boot recovery.img", to boot into the recovery without flashing it i get "(remote dtb not found)"
When trying to manually update the OS through "fastboot zip Update.zip", I get "(remote: data too large)".
I also tried to do "fastboot erase recovery" before issuing the flash command.
*In trying to fix this i flashed the boot image of 3.5.3 onto the boot partition but nothing happened and now the phone reads as 3.5.3 on 3.5.2 firmware :crying:
I tried to use SkipSoft ToolKit,custom and official twrp, and recoveries such as CWM.
This would probably be better placed into the, ONEPLUS 3 ROMS, KERNELS, RECOVERIES, & OTHER DEVELOPMENT, section but I can not post there yet. If anyone can help me or find a mod that knows about this problem it would be much appreciated.

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...
