You could try extracting the boot.img from you custom rom, placing it in your adb folder, then flash the boot image all by itself with TWRP. That has pulled me out of bootloops....

[Q] Custom recoveries with stock updates.

Hi,
Dudes I know some advantages of custom recoveries over stock recovery. It gives u freedom to flash any custom zip. I have a doubt, what if a stock software update zip is flashed with custom recoveries?. Can it be successfully flashed ??? If not, then what error will be thrown ???

[Q] Custom ROMs won't boot

Hey guys, I've seen this issue before yet I've tried everything in a few threads now but have no idea what is happening,I have tried using search function yet no solution has fixed my problem.
Problem:
When installing custom ROMs the installation goes fine. I put the ROM on the sdcard, follow instructions for flashing e.g wipe data/cache etc and then flash GAPPS. However I get stuck on the boot logo of every ROM. I've tried both TWRP and CWM recoveries, both with no luck. Also tried not flashing GAPPS and just trying to flash the ROM to no avail.
Current state of phone:
The phone is currently running stock firmware via downloading factory image and flashing in boot-loader : stock boot, recovery, system image etc
The phone works fine when rooted on stock firmware. E.g no custom rom yet rooted.
Could really do with some help guys, any ideas?

same problem simple solution another user informed me of.
simply donwgrade to 4.3 JB stock rom through fastboot. Then you are able to flash a custm rom from the 4.3 stock rom.
Its crazy i have to do this but it worked for me, now im running the xperience rom which is a rom based on 4.4.2 kk.
the 4.3 android stock firmwares are linked somewhere in the FAQ's as well as the guide to ffastboot lash it.
peace.

Hey man, worked a charm thanks!
For users who may have the same problem:
After flashing 4.3 onto the device it did NOT boot.
- However I then went into the bootloader flashed custom recovery, I used cwm.
- Then I went into recovery, used adb to push the rom and gapps onto sdcard
- Full wipe and then installed rom. Then installed gapps
Working fine.

Hi.
I did not flash the ROM that you mentioned (Primo-S)!
Which recovery do you use to flash the custom rom? I had some issues with CWMR and had to switch to TWRP ... to flash CM 11 on the Desire-S.
Regards.
Hi.
After rooting the phone (with CMWR) I flashed TWRP recovery to the HTC Desire S (TWRP-saga-2.8.7.0-unofficial.img)
After booting in recovery I installed CM 11 (cm-11-20150702-UNOFFICIAL-XNG3C-saga.zip)
Due to the limited space on the HTC Desire S I installed only a reduced set of GAPPS afterwards (gapps-444-base-20150818-1-signed.zip plus some Gapps afterwards).

Why twrp is reinstall every time after custom rom installed?

When custom rom installed twrp reinstall
every time install custom rom
Why ?
Sorry for bad english....
"Go to install and browse to the zip and install the zip. The zip will install TWRP on boot partition of both slots."
I copied this from the installation guide on twrp.me for the Moto G7 Power. TWRP is installed on your boot partition. Flashing a new boot.img removes TWRP... and a custom ROM contains a boot.img...

Lineage based ROMs come with a specialized recovery now. After they are flashed TWRP recovery gets overwritten by the recovery built into the ROM. Before PIE based ROMs this wasn't an issue. I could go further but I won't.

The whole boot gets overwritten by the new boot.img, that's all. It doesn't depend on your ROM. There is no other way for a A/B device.

You should find a custom rom which is properly ported for your device. Otherwise won't work.
