Phone only boots to System from Bootloader - anything else boots to Recovery - Moto Z2 Play Questions & Answers

Hi! I've unlocked bootloader, latest TWRP and Latest AICP. No root. The phone will never boot to System from power off, from TWRP or normal reboot.
It will, however boot normally from bootloader screen, when I choose Start.
Have already wiped every partition, tried to reinstall ROM, the problem always persists.
Any idea what is causing this?
Thanks

Problem with TWRP and rooting

Just rooted my phone and now after i flashed TWRP and I boot to TWRP the touchscreen becomes unresponsive. I'm now stuck in TWRP not knowing what to do. Any ideas? Everything worked just fine up until now.
Edit. Fixed now. Did a force reset and booted to recovery again and now it works. Strange...

Power plus Volume up will reboot the phone
power plus volume down to enter the bootloader then recovery
Do I need to backup my system if I dont intend to flash custom rom? How do I make a backup if needed?
You make a Backup in twrp Recovery. Be sure you installed
Twrp 2.8.6.4 beta. Its always better to make a Backup.
I made a backup of boot and system sections, is that enough or should i backup data section to? Its gonna be quite large since i got alot of stuff installed.
Gonna flash Viper later, all i have to do is a wipe of system cache and dalvik and then flash boot. Img from Viper and then flash viper zip-file. Phone is rooted and s-off.

Flashed TWRP, now I have no OS

Ok, unlocked my bootloader via the command fastboot OEM unlock, then I flashed TWRP 2.6.0.0. I pressed Start on the bootloader, the my Nexus went into recovery mode, so I tapped reboot, and TWRP said No OS Installed!. Now I know this is a soft-brick (how can it be brick since there is no OS?) since I can restart my device. I would have just went and reinstalled a factory image right, but I am here asking if I can just install Cyganmod 10.2 instead, even though Android is gone?

It will boot but it now hangs at the boot animation
Please, describe, what exactly you want to do?
Stock rooted ROM with TWRP?
CM or any other ROM?
Or a what?
You can. Why an old as **** twrp and rom though?
If this is a newer build, man date 12/14 or later you need to use multirom TWRP. See here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562

Nexus 5x only shows backlit black screen after flash recovery

Hello,
after flashing recovery with latest TWRP (twrp-3.1.0-0-bullhead - md5 checked), I restarted the bootloader (fastboot restart-bootloader)
But from that point on, the phone only showed a black screen. it still shows in fastboot devices and boots, possibly to the pin-check. power volume down makes a screen capture sound there.
No screen in bootloader, no screen on boot. Only thing that seems to happen is the backlight switching.
Tried to restore factory defaults with the flash all bat from the stock builds, fastloader -w and the flash stock & unroot option from latest nexus root toolkit.
Does anyone have any other idea what I can try?
thanks in advance

I've never seen anyone restart the bootloader. Reboot but not restart. Hopefully they are the same but I have not a clue as to what that does to your phone after flashing recovery. For future reference after flashing recovery, boot into recovery, once in recovery, I always reboot to recovery again, then flash supersu.
I'm glad you have fastboot still. You could try this, flash_all again. Afterwards, boot into TWRP (don't install) do a factory reset and then reboot. Make sure your flash-all is installing everything. I always flash mine one at a time. Good luck

Thank you for the reply. I will try a flash all with TWRP again.
as for the restart - i just looked it up - it was a reboot-bootloader command. Misspelled there.

OnePlus 5t Bricked, Help?

I just got my 5t a couple of days back. Unlocked the bootloader and used Blu spark twrp and magisk beta for root.
On restart phone would boot up to one plus logo, and then just go black. The notification light goes on. But nothing else.
Help please?
Edit FIXED(No data loss)
1. Boot into TWRP, clear cache. Hard reset(Volume up + Power from a switched off state).
2. Boot back into twrp.
3. Adb push full zip(Found here - Signed Flashable Zip)(Adb push follows this syntax - adb push /(filename).zip /storage/
4. On twrp goto the install menu, navigate to storage and install the file.
5. Optionally you may clear the cache and then install magisk. I couldn't get it to work without magisk but YMMW
Do a hard reset if you still can...

Already did that, multiple times. No success.
Same happened to me. It eventually forced into a fastboot bootloop. I had to flash and boot twrp from fastboot again, and then flash the full ota zip and essentially start over.
Decided to skip the root though, until there is a solid ROM release or a stable magisk.

I tried a similar approach. Cleared dalvik, hard reset then booted into Blu twrp. Flashed Full zip and then magisk again. Booted right up.

Yes that was one of my many troubleshooting steps as well, didn't work for me.
Can you help me with this, having a similar issue when I tried to unroot and screwed everything up.
Can anyone help me with this? I'm trying to push via adb the stock os and it looks successful but I don't see it in TWRP.
It's not a big issue, you just flashed the wrong magisk, just boot into recovery and re flash the stock OS
With this type of brick, if u r able to access recovery just go amd reflash, this is not a major brick

[HELP] Mate SE in TWRP bootloop after installing openkirin lineageOS beta 4

Mate SE, installed TWRP 3.2.1-0 Pretorian80 Edition then installed openKirin lineageOS beta 4. Went to do a factory reset and now TWRP starts on startup but does not get past the loading page. Tried rebooting into bootloader, using the button combo or adb reboot bootloader only brings TWRP back up with the same issue. Any ideas?
From what I understand, you need to flash lineage via fastboot. Did you do that??

Yeah I launched the bootloader and used fastboot to flash it. The flash went through fine, then it rebooted and asked if I wanted to factory reset the device and I selected yes. Now it won't shut off, it only reboots into TWRP's loading page and sits there.
I should mention I have access to some ADB commands now but rebooting into bootloader won't work.
EDIT: got it working, just had to time rebooting it and plugging it in and holding vol- and power correctly, took me 30 or so tries, fml

Directly from OpenKirin's install guide:
"TWRP and other custom recoveries are not supported! Please ensure you have your device’s stock recovery installed. If you install the ROM with a custom recovery, we cannot assist you with any issues which may arise."

Yeah....I skipped over the sentence saying "please ensure you have your device's stock recovery installed" and thought installing it via fastboot without using TWRP it would be fine. It was not. IMO they should make the warning more dire.
All fixed and working now, thanks for your input.
How did you get it fixed?
