[Help] Phone is not booting custom ROM

Hello I have a Redmi 1S-TD running MIUI 8 latest China developer ROM. I have been trying to install TWRP for a few days but there's something wrong with my phone. I used the fastboot tools to flash TWRP and it said "Writing Recovery OK" but when I boot into recovery it shows Xiaomi logo and then reboots. When I boot into recovery mode after that it reverts back to Mi Recovery 2.0.1.
Also the "fastboot boot recovery.img" is not working for me. It always stucks at "Booting..." and it says Transmission OK on my phone but it won't boot into TWRP.
Please help I don't know what's the problem with my phone
Edit: it should be Custom Recovery on the title not Custom ROM

When I try to flash using MiFlash it shows Partition table doesn't exist.

Re:flash TWRP
Use stock MI Recovery to flash
download twrp.zip and rename it to update.zip
put it on your internal storage and boot to recovery
find and select update.zip then flash.

HELP - TWRP on OnePlus 3 running the Open Beta 9 (Nougat ROM)

Here's the deal. I unlocked the bootloader of my OnePlus 3, flashed TWRP Recovery with "Tool All In One" through my pc. Then I was able to root my phone, I did it and then, flashed the Open Beta 9 through TWRP.
Now the problem I have now is that I'm unable to flash TWRP from my computer and I don't know why. It doesn't display any error or anything else. But when I boot into recovery mode, it is not TWRP, it's the stock one. Help me out. I want root and Xposed lol!

fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
into recovery Vol Plus and Power
flash SU
beta9 is Nougat so xposed is not working yet.

You need adb and Fastboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979&page=95
On The Fastboot PATH
Same directory, Put twrp.img
Shift and Right Mouse.Open cmd and type
fastboot flash recovery "twrp file name.img"
You can get TWRP.
I recommend TWRP .28
After you can flash any Rom and Kernel , SU etc...

You need modified TWRP Recovery to Run Open Beta 9, official TWRP won't work
Here's the link for Modified TWRP

Thank you guys so much, I successfully flashed TWRP on my phone. First time, it didn't want to boot but when I rebooted it id did
... Well, update: Booted into system and when y tried to boot into recovery, this time unplugged from the pc, booted with stock recovery -_-
... Update of the update haha: I downloaded the root zip and then I flashed the TWRP, Installed root zip and made a backup of the whole system and now, the TWRP recovery is installed permanently. Thank you if you guys followed my thread.

Please help, twrp can't stay and magisk erases the system..

Hi, just received my device, I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/oneplus-5t-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3704592 and when I reboot my phone, TWRP is replaced by the default recovery... Also when I flash magisk v15.3 my phone can't boot anymore and i got into fastboot mode.. I am running Oxygen os beta, thanks.
I tried everything, different twrp versions, etc... don't know what to do :/

Once you flash the twrp-recovery.img in fastboot are you using the command
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-recovery.IMG
to get into recovery and flash magisk or are you rebooting the phone?

I tried both the command you writed, and booting the recovery via the volume button in the fastboot mode.
TWRP boots correctly, then I flash oxygen os beta and all is ok, but when i try to return into recovery, i got the oxygen os recovery. When I install magisk I simply can't boot anymore.
I followed the instructions gived in the link

Why are you flashing beta after twrp? All that is doing is replacing TWRP with the stock recovery.
Flash beta and let the phone boot
Enter fastboot and flash twrp
Boot to twrp with command "fastboot boot twrp-recovery.IMG"
Flash magisk
Reboot to system

Bro try installing beta zip through adb sideload from twrp

The key is, after flashing TWRP, DON'T boot into system. Instead, boot into recovery right after flashing TWRP, and flash magisk.
Original OOS will replace the recovery, at least from my experience.

Hi guys, finally solved the problem. I had to download an alternate TWRP ( codeworks ). Also, only the beta version of Magisk worked. Now all is ok, thanks for your help

This has nothing to do with an alternative TWRP, you can't flash the ROM after TWRP, because ROM includes stock recovery, which or course replaces TWRP as it has been said before.
To "manifest" TWRP after flashing it, you need to boot into recovery before booting into the system.
It's quite simple if you just read the probably 100+ available guides.

Just upgraded the ROM to 10.3.2.0 and now TWRP recovery always reverted to stock recovery after reboot.

reflash your twrp via adb and when u type "fastboot reboot" press and hold Volume Up until enter twrp, and then try to reboot recovery via twrp. i can't share youtube link, afk right now

Done this several times, but I didn't use hard buttons, instead i used fastboot boot recovery.img command to reboot to recovery after flashing recovery. I also tried rebooting to recovery from twrp without problem, but after rebooted to system, twrp reverted to stock recovery, everytime.
I didn't have this problem with MIUI 10.3.1.0 with the same TWRP.
edit : I'm using TWRP 0330 btw, and somehow there was no swipe to allow modification confirmation when the phone rebooted to twrp for the 1st time after flashing twrp.
Wonder why.

Tks, but I don't have problem with TWRP 0330, it works fine, including touch screen, the problem is TWRP get replaced by Stock Recovery everytime I boot my my phone to system.
I don't want to root my phone, just like to have TWRP recovery around so I can use it to flash hosts file for ads blocking and some other things.
Someone told me i need to flash lazyflasher...I'm going to do it later ..

Boot to recovery through fastboot and then flash the image or the zip through TWRP, then to flash it reboot again to TWRP before to boot up to system.

No. don´t try to boot to recovery from fastboot after to flash it, don´t flash it through fastboot.
Do the next three steps and see what happens but do it exactly the same or won´t worth the try:
- In fastboot delete recovery partition by typing fastboot erase recovery
- Then reboot to recovery (don´t flash it yet) by typing fastboot boot twrp.img (rename recovery image firstly to twrp)
- Now once in TWRP flash the zip or image to the recovery partition, when you finish go to Reboot options within TWRP and choose recovery to boot to it before to boot up to system. If you boot at this instance to TWRP then the issue have to be solved, reboot normally to system.
Edit: If this way the problem is not solved then after to install TWRP flash Magisk that can prevent it to be overwritten.
