Hello mate
Don't worry.. Just wipe system, data and cache and re-install rr rom. The same thing happened to me when i did a factory reset on that ROM.
i did all, it shows as installing but after reboot goes back to TWRP recovery only
change ur twrp recovery, i mean update your twrp recovery and you will never face this problem....

I had the same problem a few days back. I tried everything but at the end, I had to flash the stock ROM using SP Flash Tool. After that, I was able to boot into Stock Android and rooted the phone again and installed the Custom Rom later.

Thanks, I have already downloaded from some other URL.
@ skyh3ck and VinayakS
did it help?
My phone got a bootloop to twrp 3.0.2-7 after I wanted to restore to factory settings (from settings menu), I tried flashing 'new' RR-N-v5.8.5-20170926-aio_otfp-FINAL (during flashing I had 2 errors - logs available), tried to flash with some other roms, I tried to restore some old backups - same thing = bootloop to twrp.
I don't want to brick it like the guy from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/help/help-unbricking-k3-note-k50a40-charging-t3699007

I did not had time to revert rooting and remove custom recovery, so can't say much at this moment.
But your bootloop issue is most probably due to presence of TWRP, you need to completely remove root & TWRP, restore stock boot and recovery, then try.

Fortunately I've made it working again.
What I did, I flashed phone with SP FLash Tool 5.1628 and K50a40_S433_160909_ROW https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537. But it was not success at that time. Phone acted weirdly couldn't boot, only vibration after power on could be felt. So I tried to flash only the recovery Lenovo K3 Note Stock Recovery.img 10,2MB (also in the package but not default recovery image for S433) with the scatter map from S433 stockrom but SPFL said that it didn't end successfully, so I flashed only rocovery from stock rom S433 target_bin folder recovery.img 12800kB and then voila, it started to boot, there was a Lenovo logo, took some time to start but eventually phone is working.
Now I want to root it and / or flash correct version because my phone is actually k50-t5 not k50a40.
So thanks and good luck to those with similar problems after restoring factory settings on AIMROM.

Exactly the same thing happened to me.
So I tried your idea and updated my TWRP, going from 2.8 to 3.1..1
But exactly the same thing happens - it still bootloops, but to the new TWRP.
I've tried flashing several different ROMs that all worked in the past. But no change.

do as what i have mentioned above,..and give update
It worked ! Thanks.
The reason I didn't try it straight away was all the comments about wrong links etc. And some of the links afterwards didn't work. So I was looking for a recovery.img file in other places.
I read your new message, so I used the first link in your post which gave me the recovery img. The TWRP link doesn't seem to work, but I already have an up to date TWRP on the phone.

Do you have stock ROM?
No. But I do have a backup that I had created using CWM recovery. But currently, I have flashed Philz recovery on my phone as it has more feature than CWM recovery.
I also have a backup of my current rom (created using Philz Recovery) which I had made after changing the bootlogo.

So for now, I only have backup that I had made using CWM recovery.

Where can i get the Stock Symphony Roar A50 Rom? I didnt had backup also! :/ No one here also Shared their Stock Symphony Rom here....
Hmm. Tell any of your friends using it and tell to take backup
thanks that was useful...but...
dude,
great job... will definitely hit the THANKS button... the procedure of running into recovery without installing a custom recovery is indeed very helpful. but i got caught in a slight snag: (a) i choose backup, (b) it suddenly pops an error [it was about to finish the backing up procedure] and does not continue.
questions:
a) to do the backup procedure - will it REQUIRE an unlocked bootloader?
b) will one also have to root first, that is, using the 'virtual custom recovery', should one install ROOT ACCESS first, then REBOOT, then proceed with backing up following your procedure?
thanks so much,

What is the exact problem you are facing when flashing the stock file. PLEASE EXPLAIN FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDNG.
ELSE YOU CAN TRY THE BELOW.
NB: I AM ASSUMING THINGS AND GIVING THIS INFORMATION, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS AS I DONT KNOW THE EXACT PROBLEM YOU ARE FACING.
Make sure device is 100% battery.
1st try this:
1-Download this file: [ https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_1zjuazXSqbQ0p6NWtvRk9OMzA/edit?pli=1 ] and install in Windows (Run as Administrator).
2-Open Command window and type:
Code:
cd c:\adb
3-now on your device use Vol keys to choose and power key to select, and choose FASTBOOT
4-now download the attached file boot_signed.rar (extract the file in C:\adb folder)
5-type in the command window:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
5-type in the command window:
Code:
fastboot erase cache
6-type in command window:
Code:
fastboot reboot
IF THIS DID NOT WORK, THEN TRY THIS:
Download this [ https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555508 ] file and rename it to 0P8BIMG.zip and place it into the SD card (MMC Card), restart the device and let it boot into the HBoot menu.
Reboot device from the boot mode, if the device automatically reboot into the boot menu then it will start flashing the file automatically.
Good Luck, let me know how it went.
Try and let me know.
this is excellent, all in one place...
However, please forgive my ignorance in recovery/backup terminology (I hope it is not just me) but I get confused by the use of 'Nandroid' backup, Stock Rom, and .zip and .img files for flashing.
I have successfully used TWRP to flash the NostromoPop ROM, but have not been successful with any other .zip file supposedly a Stock ROM.
I have been hoping that somebody could put a rooted Stock ROM so that I can try it as a way to get around the KitKat blocks on writing to the SD card for some of my autosync apps.
Am I making any sense?
Many thanks if you can help

Hi,
As I understand you cannot flash a stock ROM with customer Recovery, as far as I know you need stock Recovery to flash a stock ROM, I remember trying stock ROM on TWRP but it failed, could be due to some other reason, I read somewhere it has something to do with file signatures.
As for SD write fix, you need to have root access other than that there is no fix for it, rooting with SuperUser Binary... I myself did want to try it now that I am back on stock but then I am greedy for Marshmallow (if they could fix that Loud Speaker issue) I am all in for Android M, I tried to get in touch with people on the Cyanogen Forums but no luck as I have not yet received verification email, tried so many times, no luck and as it seems there is no Marshmallow development on HTC One Mini 2....
I will wait and see how it goes...
If I am correct you can keep stock ROM and flash SU Binary and get root access and then install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix to get it done with, it ought to work, haven't tried myself...

Which recovery image have you used, I have flashed the newer version successfully, yes the backup worked and has non-English language as default.
The command:

Hi,
I believe you flashed a recovery with another recovery, which I think is not the right way, the right way is to use the command to overwrite TWRP with stock recovery.

HI,
Just wanted to know if you are having any issues with low audio after restoring Android backup from TWRP, I feel my audio is way too low and cant be heard just if I am outside my room..
I didn't have any audio problems, it could just be you being used to cm's 3rd party BoomSound replacement
---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:21 PM ----------
Well that would exsplain why some elements of the stock recovery remained after I reflashed twrp with a app on my phone, e.g. it fixed the image I get when I hook my device up to power when it is turned off...before that it would just boot me into a unusable twrp homepage
The stock RUU file is corrupt! (tried 5 times now)
Where can I get a A stock flash or a ROM that is NOT ROOTED please?
I tried the 0P8BIMG.zip on SD card method and that did not work either.
Also, I thought the RUU file is meant to be an executable not a zip file. I'm confused...

I doubt its corrupted, which OS are you running currently ?, when I tried it, it failed due to the installed stock ROM being newer than the one being installed and since I have S-ON I cant downgrade it...
You can Nandroid Restore the stock backup, I have personally tried and it works....
Another way to do it is to have the Nandroid Restore and then use Sunshine to S-OFF (as sunshine only works on stock or near-stock ROMs) and then flash with 0P8BIMG.zip, it should work then, just a thought...

Its a signed boot file, meaning it flashes successfully should the device fail to boot or stuck on boot or in other words if the device does not boot and remains on HTC, this flashing this should solve your problem.
Hi all I have been directed here from another thread as I am looking to place a stock rom on my htc one mini 2 without bloatware, I have unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP but the stock rom remains the same all I want is to install a rom via TWRP if at all possible. Is the 1gig one ok for that or will i need to completely put the stock recovery back on and the phone is unlocked to all networks if that makes any different
Thank in advance

Hi,
Its not possible to flash stock rom via TWRP, plus you need to have S-Off.
The only way to go complete stock is to restore Nandroid Backup and then flash stock recovery.

so is this the nandroid back up of a stock rom that I can use with the latest update for use with twrp and when I mean stock rom I mean a rom that has not been majorly altered to class it as a custom rom. I.e still has sense and no additional apps added
Again Thanks in advance

Hi,
Yes you will have to restore the Nandroid Backup, this backup is completely of a stock ROM, no edition, however it does not have some apps like the Calculator, Flash etc for some reason.
However I found the missing apps from here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/htc-corporation/

Excellent much appreciated for this right, so I need to first copy the nandroid backup to my Phones root and run TWRP and restore using the downloaded nandroid yes?
if yes could I please have the steps to put the stock recovery on with ADB commands as I really don't want to brick my phone (Yes I know you take no resposibilty etc) just happier to have as least the correct file names and adb commands.
And last I just copy the new stock RUU to my phone and install?
You help is as always greatly appreciated as no one seems to be ddoing anything anymore for this phone
ok, i am stuck on my boot up screen. i flashed a zip file xposed arm zip. after the reboot it will not pass the boot animation screen. now on my old Motorola phone, i would do the pwr + vol keys to boot back in to recovery. well this does no work on my X. any one have any ideas. I am rooted, unlocked, twrp was installed from play store, & i did do a back up. thanks

What device do you have, XT1095, XT1097, etc? And you are not able to boot into the bootloader using vol down + power correct?
It was a 1096, now its trash. it would go into fastboot, but could not get into twrp recovery. its done. RIP

If it boots to fastboot, it's not dead. Just reflash the recovery and you're good to go.

Was there a resolution for this? I'm having a similar problem. I'm not sure how I got to this status, but here's what I'm dealing with:
Device: XT1095
Bootloader: Unlocked
Rooted, ROM - Resurrection Remix, TWRP
Turning on the phone reaches the RR bootsplash and proceeds to bootloop.
When holding down the power and volume down, it will enter fastboot.
When I try to open TWRP recovery, it'll show the blue TWRP screen and just sit there.
I have tried to reinstall TWRP, but that has no effect. I didn't want to manually flash another ROM or go back to stock because at least now it seems USB debugging is on and if I flashed a ROM I cant be sure I'd be able to turn it on. Do any of you pros have some ideas hove I can get back into my phone? Thanks

Do you have a USB-OTG device plugged in while trying to start TWRP? If so remove it, you can mount it after TWRP starts if this helps.
Have you tried a different build of TWRP? I'm currently using the one built by invisiblek, one of the CM devs for the victara. It was built and posted on December 8th and is here: http://www.invisiblek.org/twrp/twrp_2.8.7.0-0624b8bd_victara.img
Have you tried flashing the stock recovery to see if that will start? If it does, you could use the factory reset option there and then try reinstalling TWRP. (TWRP has a settings directory in /sdcard and maybe that is corrupted.)
There have been a few people posting with this problem but I've not seen a definitive fix for it.
Thank for the quick response. No, I don't have USB-OTG inserted. It is using TWRP 2.8.7.1. No, I haven't tried installing the version you mentioned. What I did do was attempt to flash the pre-installed TWRP 2.8.1.0 via MOTO X TOOLKIT. It failed. I'm not very experienced at using ADB manually. As I mentioned, I've been reluctant to flash another ROM (custom or stock) because I don't want to get stuck with USB debugging inactive with no way to get in far enough to reactivate it.

If I manage to install the invisiblek TWRP and it opens properly will I then be able to restore the backups created with TWRP 2.8.7.1?
If that's the case, I need to find a tutorial on installing TWRP manually via ADB, right? I usually install TWRP via TWRP Manager.

That's interesting, the TWRP Manager has never worked correctly for me although it's been a long time since I've tried it.
To flash manually, you actually need fastboot which is usually installed along with adb. If you open a command window, and type in fastboot and it runs, the rest is pretty easy. If it doesn't run, this thread has the 15 second ADB/Fastboot installer, select to install it system-wide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118
Download the recovery image, rename the file to twrp.img, then open a command window in the folder where you downloaded it (type cmd then Enter in the address line at the top of the folder window.)
When the command window is open and the phone is in bootloader mode and connected to the computer with the USB cable, enter the command "fastboot device" (without the quotes) If everything is working it will list the serial number of your phone.
Then enter "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (without the quotes) to start the flashing process, ignore the size mismatch message. It will only take a few seconds to complete.
Use the volume down key to highlight recovery, then volume up to select it. Hopefully TWRP will boot up and you'll be good to go!
Well, reinstalling TWRP didn't fix it. Thoughts? Anyone?

Reflash stock rom from fastboot.

UPDATE: Thanks all. Well, after fiddling around with various methods of reinstalling TWRP, I managed to get it reinstalled and all is back to normal now.
i have followed directions to the best of my knowledge, i had twrp already installed but i wanted to update to 20V i was running 20Q, so i used lgup and did a refurbished option. I am running windows 10, i installed minimal adb, adb recognizes my phone, my phone was unlocked and after doing lg up it stayed unlocked, so i proceed to booting into twrp from fastboot, it does boot into twrp i even installed su V279 and updated it thru google play, my problem is when i go to do fastboot flash recovery xxx.img i get writing recovery failed, even if i flashify it does not install twrp i do get root permission according to su. I havent been able to past that, when i try to reboot into twrp with buttons or application phone shuts down and instead of going to twrp lg logo blinks for a second and then phone restarts to normal operation, what am i doing wrong? i been playing on this for days now, thanks in advance
ps, i even installed the rooted 20V from here still same result, unable to flash twrp
weird but i downloaded twrp for 811-815 thru the phone ap, twrp app and i flashed it with same app and it worked, i have no clue what went on, but i tried different downloads and all fail til just now, thank God!
ok please dont do what i did, twrp did flash but it is for 815, i installed it cause app said it was for both, and it wont let me flash h811 files, will continue to work on it, starting from scratch

problem solved, i tried your twrp and had same issue, it will boot but was not writing to phone, i read somewhere, after unlocking the bootloader to save twrp on the phone and then after booting into twrp with fastboot boot twr.img to use twrp file manager and copy from phone to external sd card, i tried that and it worked! now i have permanent twrp. I believe something happens when i tried to copy the file from my computer to my external sd, either my sd card is not working properly and doesnt write everything or some files just dont get transferred cause i copy and paste using file manager app from phone to sd and didnt work. I'm glad i have twrp back in my phone! Thank you raptorddd for helping

yes you need to have both files i use minimal adb so i place one in that folder and other in external sd .. or internal. then selecting install and lower it says image. then it ask you to select. then select recovery and flash install. and youll have permanent twrp.
could it be that you use USB 3.0 or win10.? i know that for KDZ and LGUP it has problems.. your welcomed you should try G5 port rom from astrako.:good:
the h811 vaariant.
I could have been usb3 as you said I was using Windows 10, I had no problems with lg up though. And sure I will try the g5 port as soon as I get a chance, thank you again!

Phone Details:
Sony Xperia Z2 D6503 running Android 6.0.1
Boot loader unlocked
TWRP installed
Magisk v12.0
Had the phone rooted but un-rooted via SU and then re-flashed default os using Sony Companion and unlocked the boot loader
When i flash Magisk via TWRP it says its successful but when i go to reboot it won't boot up
Has anyone experienced this before or have successfully installed Magisk on Xperia Z2 that can help me out?
same problem here. can anyone recommend a solution ?
Same here.. Finally recovered my device flashing stock...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/development/stock-h850-20d-eu-rom-flashable-zips-t3592762
Before Magisk installs anything on your device, it will create a boot image backup in /data/stock_boot_<sha1>.img.gz
If anything goes wrong (e.g. bootloop), you can either use the uninstaller (recommended) or decompress the backup and manually restore your boot image
It should ALWAYS bring your device back to life (suppose you have a custom recovery that can decrypt your /data)

If you can't access recovery you've got bigger issues than getting a bootloop from flashing Magisk. Can you access the bootloader to fastboot flash or boot a recovery image?

best advice is to head to your device's forum and check for guides there on how to flash custom recovery (twrp) there.
Connect your phone with pc, go into fastboot mode and type on fastboot
Code:
fastboot boot recovery
Or try a simple ways with power button with volume -/+ or both just try it
