Loop when booting into TWRP - Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers

I'm having problems booting into recovery with twrp installed. When I try, TWRP gets as far as showing it's splash screen, but then restarts, repeatedly re-showing the splash screen every 2-3 seconds. I can access the phone with adb while this happens, and I can therefore easily reboot to bootloader or system. Just cannot get into twrp recovery mode.
Using
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery.img
to boot temporarily into TWRP works like a charm. It's the permanent installation of the image that fails.
The TWRP image I'm using is the unofficial version 3.3 from this URL: https:// unofficialtwrp.com/twrp-3-3-root-moto-g7-play/ (sorry about the spaces in the formatting ... as new user I'm not allowed to insert outside-links)
My phone model is XT1952-1
Any suggestions are appreciated.

[Q] Stuck on boot X after clockwork

ISSUE FIXED!! SEE SECOND POST.
Just bought a Nexus 7 2013 and I was trying to root it with adb and clockwork on Ubuntu. The install went ok, but when I tried to reboot it got stuck on the Google logo.
So I rebooted it again and tried installing TWRP. I now have access to recovery via TWRP, however the device is still stuck on the X boot screen.
I'm sure I can try and load a custom ROM, but is there a way to try and fix this and use the current ROM?
I have tried holding the power for 1 minute like advised on another thread, but that did not work.
The two files I have used:
recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-grouper.img
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-flo.img
Thanks,
Vic.

You have the correct recovery for twrp, but your clcokwork touch is for the old N7. That's probably what messed it up in the first place.

Lost Asus Logo and

I try the ROM this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/development/rom-cleanstock-mm-z00aww-4-21-40-144-t3492278 by By GuilhermeXtreme
README file MM bootloader folder I downloaded from his website:
" * Connect your phone to computer
* Execute upgrade.bat (win), upgrade_linux.sh (linux) or upgrade_mac.sh (mac)
* Script will flash new bootloader bits, reboot to new bootloader and flash new TWRP recovery
* Enjoy ! "
I upgraded to MM bootloader but didn't do "reboot to new bootloader and flash new TWRP recovery" part because I see the version of TWRP in the folder is same as my current TWRP. Then I flash the ROM and reboot but the phone didn't boot to the ROM, logo not show up and stuck at "Your device have failed verification .... " screen for few minutes and keep reboot to it. I tried the key combination to boot to fastboot mode but only see a black screen (phone still vibrate) and no logo.
I attempted to fix the phone and somehow it boot TWRP (thanks God) then I flashed LineageOS successfully.
Still logo lost and meet black screen when try to go fastboot mode.
.
What problem do I have beside losing logo? Lost bootloader? And what do I need to do to fix it?
Thanks so much in advance And sorry for my English.

How can I keep MIUI from overwrite TWRP with stock recovery after a ROM flash?

I'm on fw Global 9.6.6.0.
(Bought the phone 'bogus' unlocked with "fake" 9.6.4.0, bricked it while trying to restore chinese fw and re-lock bootloader using miflash - I'm not doing that again
brought it back to life using the steps from Omer919's thread - thanks Omer919 and Nijel8)
I deleted install-recovery.sh from system/bin using TWRP's file manager before first boot, but it still overwrites MIUI recovery.
It's not a huge deal because I guess I can always fastboot flash twrp before flashing any new ROM, but does anyone have a solution? Much appreciated!
You have to boot to twrp right after flashing.
Go to twrp official site, choose your device and follow exactly instruction to the end.
It wouldnt harm your device if you reboot it to twrp twice.
Thanks, I tried but it reverts to stock recovery. After flashing TWRP in fastboot, I either try Fastboot boot twrp.img or disconnect the cable and hold power and vol+.
Either way, it goes into TWRP, and I make it boot back into TWRP several times with no problem.
But as soon as I boot to System, it reverts to stock.
TWRP site gives me this info (but it didn't work):
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.
OMG I found it - Google really is a friend. All I had to do was install Magisk before booting to System.
Below are my exact steps, if that helps someone.
Preliminary:
Download Magisk 17.1 zip, place it on a USB flashdrive.
Install latest magiskmanager apk from Play store (or sideload it if not on the store)
1- In Fastboot:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img (If all goes well, this boots to TWRP; if prompted for a code, hit cancel)
2- Disconnect the cable.
Reboot to recovery once more (just to make sure, this is probably redundant; hit cancel if prompted for a code)
3- Mount USB-OTG, connect your flashdrive.
Install Magisk.
During the installation, you'll see some red fail lines, but Magisk seems to work around the encryption, just be patient.
4-Reboot System. You're done! Launch MagiskManager. Device is rooted in the process, too. (Verify with a root checker app).
Power Off. Hit Power + volume Up - You should boot to TWRP.
thanks a million McNoob. I was lost, but due to your hints I managed to install Magisk

TWRP help needed

I unlocked my Nexus 7, though after a TWRP install when selecting recovery mode it stays stuck on the Google logo as if there’s no TWRP; though the command prompt said install was successful.
Any help?

It may be incorrect sequence of steps, note:
"many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."
Try this:
Restock
run Android once
flash TWRP
immediately and directly boot TWRP
Will try that!

[SOLVED]Boot loop after flashing bad image with fastboot / No fastboot/adb/recovery

Hi guys,
I tried to flash TWRP on my Wiko Lenny 4 earlier.
I used adb and fastboot to flash it, however the touchscreen wouldn't work and I was stuck at the "swipe to allow kernel modifications" screen in TWRP. No problem, I reboot in recovery mode, and switched to fastboot mode.
I found another TWRP image and, after flashing with
-> fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I typed another command,
- >fastboot boot twrp.img.
Since then I am stuck at the Wiko boot screen, saying:
Orange State
Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted (initially I unlocked OEM)
Your device will boot in 5 seconds
Whatever combination of power+vol up/down I try to use, it only reboots to this screen.
adb won't reconize any device, as well as fastboot. And both are up-to-date.
Perhaps there exists a recovery image that I can put on my sd card, and hopefully it will automatically boot on the sd card as I don't have any control right now.
If someone has an idea, please tell me.
thanks
[EDIT] Solved
Using this link https://aiomobilestuff.com/how-to-unbrick-wiko-stock-firmware-via-wiko-official-site/
I was able to download Wiko's recovery tool from https://customer-world.wikomobile.com/
After unzipping and starting the software, it automatically installed drivers (I guess, if it does not, mediatek usb wiko drivers can be used instead) and downloaded the software into the phone which works now.
