TWRP changed in Android Stock recovery - Sony Xperia XA2 Questions & Answers

hello Community, I have unlocked the bootloader on my Xperia, TWRP with fastboot and then the ZIP flashed, AOSP with gapps and magisk. No problems... After some time I wanted to boot into TWRP. but was not there because the Android Recovery was suddenly there, so... new TWRP about fastboot, again AOSP, gapps and magisk flashed! And although there was no error message, but gapps and magisk were not installed, so fullwipe, fastboot, this time CR Rom, micro gapps and magisk flashed, again... only the Rom was installed, so I want to boot in TWRP no way, Android recovery is back!
What am I doing wrong and how can I change it please!
Many Thanks
Tim

Because A / B slot twrp doesn't stay

wileyfox swift keeps booting in fastboot mode

Dear people,
My phone keeps booting in to fastboot mode.
I installed TWRP 3.1.1-0 crackling recovery and unlocked bootloader. So far everything worked fine.
When i wanted to install lineage OS i found trouble. The ROM could not install because there was no /system/ file.
Still no problem, just wipe everything but the external SD and everything should work fine.
Now i can install roms, but everytime i installed a ROM it will go straight into fastboot.
What i have tried:
Lower TWRP to 3.1.0-0
tried original rom fastboot flash boot boot.img & fastboot flash system system.img
Tried another rom: Kenzo's. (TWRP says its corrupted.)
adb sideload rom.
I'm not a i cant get it to work so ill post it person, but i'm really out of ideas.
BTW, i have had many phones in my career and never had issues. SO NO BACKUP (Idiot me.)
I hope you can help me!
Try downgrading to CyangenMod, then install Lineage, see posts #155 / #156 in thread 'Nightly 14.1 lineageOS Rom For Crackling'.

[SOLVED] HELP! i'm stuck in a boot loop! :(

my flashing history:
i was on audax (oos based nougat rom) with blu spark kernel before, then went to official ob1, then back to audax, then back to stock oos nougat and now i flashed audax and after clean flashing it, it just wont boot up.
when i try to boot up i see the 1+ logo but then it reboots to recovery. i also tried flashing stock nougat again and also flashed stock kernel manually but it also doesnt work.
i always do:
1. wipe system/dalvic/cache/data
2. install ROM
3. wipe dalvik/cache
4. flash magisk (also tried without flashing magisk)
5. reboot
i've been looking on the interwebs all day but nothing worked.. help pls :/
EDIT: problem was blu spark twrp. Maybe installing Oreo ****ed it up. I flashed codeworkx newest twrp universal build and now Im able to boot again!! Btw: I also found that magisk 15.0 prohibits a proper boot up and results in a boot loop. version 15.2, however, does the trick!
when it auto reboot to recovery, formate data
When s**t happens, it is wise to start everything from scratch:
-boot in fastboot mode and flash stock recovery with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (rename recovery.img with your recovery filename), then reboot recovery and select english, advanced, adb sideload;
-flash stock OS with "adb sideload rom.zip" (rename rom.zip with your Oxygen OS filename).
Procedure will require some minute because of the large file size. Remember to save all your data on internal storage first!
I advice you to flash original recovery because often sideloading in TWRP leads to some error.
Your phone will boot again... after that you may reflash TWRP, Magisk etc
I had the same issue. Bootloop and jumb into recovery by itself. You have to flash magisk 15.2 via recovery and will be boot.

He says that it occurs even without Magisk... I had a similar trouble once, and the only way to solve it was the procedure I wrote above...
I dont know if you can boot it w/o root

Why not? Stock OS is not rooted.

SOLVED! TWRP was the only variable left that I didn't think of. See initial post for solution. thx for help!

Oneplus 5T root problem

Hello all If any one can help me ,
I was rooted running rooted stock oxygen os before on my Oneplus 5T
after flashing Oxygen OS 5.1.4 Full Zip my phone is not rooting it gets in initial oneplus logo and freeze there without loading OS
Phone is working fine after Flashing Oxygen OS 5.1.4 Full Zip without any issue its not booting after flashing either SuperSu or Magisk
Steps which I follow are
1 Flash custom recovery I have tried both Codeworkx TWRP | Blu_Spark
2 after flashing recovery boot in to recovery flash Supersu or magisk
3 reboot
when I reboot if i Flash supersu it stuck on oneplus logo, If i flash magisk it reboot itself to fastboot so Os is not loading at all.
I have to flash full Zip again every time to get it working but then I dont have root access.
I have tried at least 10 times with different even old versions of magisk and supersu with out any success.
Is there any particular recovery or different version of magisk or superuse I need to flash?
your help will be really appreciated.
Try a different approach. Instead of installing recovery, just get phone rooted first. There is a way where you can boot into twrp (without installing it), and then flash magisk/supersu zip. If your phone is rooted, then you can install twrp later (or keep oem recovery)
This is how you boot into twrp (or any recovery): fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
Let me know how it goes.
As you said boot to recovery without installing it.
One problem currently I am installing recovery and flashing root. After that phone is not booting up in to OS it stuck on oneplus logo. Then I have to force off phone boot in to recovery and flash full os zip to get it working. I can boot in to TWRP because my os didn't load. Now if I use your method and flash root file and if phone won't boot to os that means I won't be able to boot in to TWRP again to flash full os zip to get phone working atleast without root. Any idea?
Huh, frankly I have no idea why you are facing this menace. I can just give two suggestions.
1. Try with older, more stable versions of TWRP and Magisk
2. Get yourself a custom ROM, most ROM's will work flawlessly after flashing root files
Hope for the best!
I usually switch from OpenBeta to LOS and back again. Here's how I switch back to OpenBeta (steps should work for official OOS):
1) Back everything on internal storage up. This one's important
2) Boot into official OOS recovery
3) Wipe EVERYTHING (this is why you need to follow Step 1)
4) Sideload the version of OOS you want. The instructions will be right there on the recovery screen
5) Boot into Fastboot and flash TWRP
6) Flash Magisk and (optional) Xposed

oneplus recovery blocks twrp need help

how to get into twrp, every time I reboot it goes to oneplus recovery only, I previous installed pixel experience 10 and now installed oxygen os 9.0, but I have to install pixel exp 11
After installing TWRP, immediately reboot to recovery before flashing any thing like ROM etc. You will then boot into TWRP and you can then flash the ROM, Gapps etc
If you are using Magisk, then after flashing TWRP, flash ROM, Gapps and Magisk and then reboot.

Problems with recovery.

After the firmware Lineage 18.0 flew recovery, stupidly stopped opening.Flashing through adb recovery img does not give anything, can someone tell me something? Now I can't restore the TWRP backup or flash the custom firmware and Magisk.
I installed the service firmware via the computer and everything worked out.
In my case i boot on fastboot and flashed twrp img without booting into Lineage OS 18.1 and i could install another rom, Lineage OS 18.1 sadly has the bug that deletes TWRP recovery on rom boot, doesn't matter if you install again TWRP recovery
