Stuck during custom install - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Formerly unlocked, rooted, TWRP and elementalX kernel install. Reverted to stock for update and now everything is screwy.
When I try to enter Recovery mode I get "No Command". Yes I can press Vol+ and get to some basic menu but it does me no good so I HARD RESET and started over.
Flashed TWRP via my PC but still cant get into TWRP menu in recovery mode. I am about to smash this device out of frustration. What do i do next? I want to install TWRP, MAGISKSU then just flash elementalX.
I cant get TWRP to work properly so cant install magisk..etc.

[Solved + open question] Flashed to Stock 4.3, no data, custom recovery wont stick

So I had android 4.1.2 with root, keep getting the updates, so I went and found the 4.3 rooted rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541900). I have stock recovery, but I was able to get rom manager to install it (since I had supersu). Flash it last night, then flashed the wif fix. After I installed the 4.3 rom, my phone was telling me to still update, not sure why.
So now my phone is stuck in this weird state.
No root access
4.3 installed (MK3)
Looks like the previous stock recovery (doesnt say KNOX or whatever for 4.3, just QUALCOM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE)
I cant flash any custom recovery's (CWM or twrp) through odin (3.07) they dont stick.
Factory Reset
In Rom Manager under Recovery Setup
Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.2.8
Latest Recovery: ClockworkMod 6.0.4.5
Idealy I would like to keep root access, but at this point, I REALLY want mobile data. This morning I found a few post that suggested the ##72786#, because I had no phone number it was (000-000-96??) or something. So now it shows my phone number, I could and can still make calls and send text.
Help!
Thanks!
[EDIT] Solved
So, I roughly followed this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538991
1) Did the Auto Root through Odin
2) Installed superSu
3) got root
4) flashed twrp via odin
5) Used Rom manager to get into recovery
6) flashed the MK3 modem and knox app remover
7) wiped delvik and cache
8) rebooted and got mobile data again!
Open Question: So when I press down vol + home button + power, I only get the stock recovery (green android guy), how do I get it to go to custom recovery without rom manager?
Thanks again!

Sounds like your in download mode, power off phone, try volume up, home, power button together, as soon as you see booting recovery in top left corner, let go.

Recovery Fail!

So two days ago I thought about installing Vision X rom on my Note 3 (T Mobile).
I downloaded the ROM and then backed up my current ROM (nandroid). I had Phillz touch recovery then.
Then I thought about going to TWRP and thus I downloaded the latest zip for my phone and flashed it via Phillz upon trying to reboot into recovery it got stuck in the screen "Rebooting Recovery...".
When I restarted it would still try to reboot into recovery and get stuck. I got out of that by going into download mode and then selecting "Restart Phone".
After that I looked for solutions and upon failing to find any I thought about going back to stock and starting from ground zero. I managed to flash the latest stock using Odin however I forgot to do a factory reset before hand.
When I tried to do a factory reset in my, now stock, phone it failed and then got stuck trying to get into recovery. It would flash "Rebooting Recovery..." then restart and flash that in a loop.
I have lost my root as well in the process and trying to root using Odin and CF-Root just get's me back in the recovery boot loop. I can use the phone OK however this is not a stable situation.
I'm sure I've made some serious errors in the tinkering and would like to get my recovery back. I really love Custom Roms. Any kind and knowledgeable souls out there to help me in my cause?

Go to the Playstore and download TWRP Coordinator and then
use it to install the latest TWRP recovery for your phone.
Once you can get back into TWRP recovery you need to flash
the cf-autoroot for your phone. Be sure you flash the CORRECT
version of cf-autoroot for your phone's model.
Good luck!

The app is constantly crashing!
It would start for a second then close. I tried the TWRP manager as well with the same result.
I've lost root access when I Odined back to stock, won't I need root access to install new recoveries?
Sounds like you flashed the stock 4.4 firmware and now need recovery to root. Flash this TWRP file using Odin http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/hltetmo/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar
Once you flash it, you need to boot into recovery to install supersu to root.
Switch off the Galaxy Note 3 (remove the battery and reinsert if needed)
Next, press and hold simultaneously Volume Up, Home and Power.Release the buttons when the screen flickers and wait for the TWRP menu.
Select Reboot, then System and install Supersu for root.
Once booted, open Supersu to update it and grant permission.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Help trying to install twrp H811 TMO Marsh.

Hello so I've been trying to install twrp, so then after I can root. However whenever I boot into twrp using ADB, then install the twrp image, then after it's "successful", and I try to boot into recovery, it doesn't boot into twrp. I've tried using the buttons and it just shows the LG reset your phone option, and I've said yes but it just reboots my phone. And when I use adb to reboot into recovery it just reboots my phone. Any ideas? Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/stock-h811-20i-images-kdz-flashable-t3308227

[HELP GUIDE] - Can't flash TWRP on Oxygen OS 3.2.1

Today I have faced a strange situation, I installed TWRP (after unlocking the bootloader) on my OP3 as soon as I received the device then I flashed custom ROM by @Grarak http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-t3399089.
After using for some days I decided to give Oxygen OS another try, so I wiped the cache,data,system and Flashed full OTA provided by @namanbhalla https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...ficial-oxygen-os-roms-and-ota-updates.450783/
Every thing went smooth but after starting up I wasn't able to goto twrp, for some strange reason twrp was automatically replaced with stock recovery. OK, I decided to reflash twrp, but bang! after so many flashing I wasn't able to boot into twrp, still there was stock recovery.
Solution:
1) fastboot oem unlock (re run even if it says already unlocked)
2) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3.img
now TWRP is installed.
I not Android Developer and cant guarantee above will work and wont harm your device. Try at your own risk.
that is all not needed, i have had this happen to me multiple times reflashing Stock and Stock recovery replaces TWRP, all u have to do is boot up to fastboot mode and flash TWRP, do not reboot, use Power + Vol + and when the Unlocked bootloader screen comes up press the VOL key and click recovery and TWRP is back. no need to do the unlock bootloader again, unless u unchecked it, just make sure it is checked when flashing the Stock rom again or u can just use flashify if u rooted stock before the recovery got replaced somehow, i have even had this happen on FreedomOS 3.2.1

Cannot go to Recovery mode

Im on CM13. So I was trying to install the updated recovery from Official TWRP App and though it said success, when I select go to recovery it goes to Fastboot.
What did I do wrong? How do I install recovery now?
