Can you boot into the recovery? Or fastboot? Also before trying to install a new ROM did you backup your previous?

Can't boot into recovery mode, maybe something went wrong while updating TWRP to 3.0.2 but can boot into fastboot.
also had backup of previous rom but since i can't boot into TWRP now so can't restore it. Earlier on TWRP 2.8.6 i was getting zip file execution error while restoring/installing new ROM.
So for now i have only access to fastboot mode, how to proceed futher?

You have 2 options you can flash the stock rom and recovery via fastboot here is a guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541 (Just skip step 4 don't relock the bootloader specially if you want to install TWRP) Make sure you download the correct file there is a 64gb and a 16gb listed in this guide or you can download the stock file straight from cynogen OS here https://cyngn.com/support
Or you can reinstall TWRP via fastboot by downloading TWRP here https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/ and install your backup if its still there. If its not there you can either download and install any custom rom you want or if you want the stock rom go with option 1 above and then re-install twrp. (Always remeber after installing TWRP don't fully boot into the system or you will loose TWRP, boot straight to recovery once its done flashing TWRP by holding the power button and volume down. )

Okay so I tried to flash cyanogenmod 11 for the first time on this moto G (US). It bootlooped and I tired to reflash it again and it did the same. There was no way of returning to stock because I had not made a backup. So I tried to flash stock in the bootloader and that didn't work. I went into the recovery and it said 'cant mount /sdcard. So go back into the bootloader and format the sdcard and that doesn't work (which I returned to the recovery to see it not working). I go back and flash twrp thinking that recovery would have something to help me flash a new rom and now I don't even have a working recovery. It takes me straight back to the bootloader and every time I flash a recovery it says Mismatched partition size (recovery) and I am unable to boot into it.
I have no clue on what to do at this point and I need help.
also it says invalid "boot image header!" in red letters

Twrp_MotoG_signed_010814_163615.zip
Download vocoderisms TWRP build, extract "recovery.img" from it.
After you have kitkat installed and working:
Option 1, use TWRP without install:
Boot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader), boot twrp (fastboot boot recovery.img) and install rom from there.
Option 2, install TWRP (have not tested):
Upload twrp zip to phone (adb push Twrp_MotoG_signed_010814_163615.zip /sdcard/), boot to bootloader (adb reboot bootloader), boot twrp (fastboot boot recovery.img), install Twrp_MotoG_signed_010814_163615.zip.

I thought I am the only one with this problem..After mailing the phone to SC and got it back after 2 months, the phone still looks the same, just like they did nothing to fix it.
I got this prompt and verified the partition. Now when I try to boot into recovery I get boot error, blue and red light flash for a while then I have to remove the battery to reboot. How can I reboot into recovery or did I do something terrible wrong?
Did you flash a bumpd' twrp? If not, that's the problem. Use flashify and flash a bump'd recovery.

Here's a question though. When I put twrp zip on internal do I need to move stock recovery out or can they both be in the same folder together?

I did the same thing and ended up having to use the LG flash tool to downgrade back to KK, then root, then flash recovery, then I was able to install lollipop ROMs.
I bought this phone so I can get access to a lot of different roms... I'm trying to install twrp as my recovery or cmw but when I flash it after unlocking the boot loader with cmw it doesn't stay installed and revert back to the original request and the twrp I get an error message in twrp about original recovery and then the phone goes into a boot loop. It has the latest OS version running with April Security fixes... please help
Flash twrp as it is a more versatile and widely supported recovery.
Flash twrp in fastboot mode. After flashing, use the power and volume buttons to boot directly to twrp, do not reboot the phone until after you have entered recovery.

Hey guys,
after searching through different websites and guides you are my last resort to get a custom ROM running on my Redmi S2.
Everytime i try to flash a custom ROM i get the error 255. Here is what i tried until now (bootloader is unlocked):
- flashing twrp(twrp-3.2.1-0-ysl) to recovery using fastboot
- wiping phone (first wipe to disable encryption since miui puts some kind of password on the hard drive that i dont know, second wipe to ensure partitions are clean for new OS)
- mounting phone to pc to transfer OS image (tried Lineage and Havoc, both modified for S2 (ysl version)) and GApps
- finally, installing OS zip (after which i get error message 255, telling me that twrp wasnt able to install the zip file)
please help me out, ask away if something's not clear

Try this, you have to flash first this in fastboot https://files.orangefox.download/OrangeFox-Beta/ysl/ the R10.0-1 RC1 .img file
And THEN flash this https://orangefox.download/en/device/ysl once you are in the recovery.
Then it worked for me, finally, hope this helps.

so i tried this approach. i first installed how you told me to (orangefox R10.0-1 RC1 .img first), but factory reset nor installing the second recovery img worked because of the encryption miui puts on the phone. So i flashed twrp, wiped memory, flashed first orange fox img and from then installed the second img (as a zip). until here everything worked, orange fox told me that he's going to reboot to new recovery -- and i got stuck on the boot logo again. :c

Did you flash the firmware? https://github.com/XiaomiFirmwareUpdater/firmware_xiaomi_ysl/releases/tag/stable-16.03.2020
Other thing you could try is flash the other .img files from https://files.orangefox.download/OrangeFox-Beta/ysl/ and the flash in there the same .zip file you did as before.

i suppose you flash it using MiFlash right? If so, i have a problem with flashing new roms using it because my Mi account isnt allowed to do that, i unlocked the bootloader using a tool (dont know if this has something to do with the custom rom problem)

As long as the bootloader is unlocked it should be fine. And no, you should flash the firmware just as you would flash the rom, i. e. from OrangeFox Recovery.

UPDATE: i finally ****ing did it. So here are the steps that i took (incase anyone has to go through this **** as well)
1. flash MIUI on mobile device using MiFlash (at least i did this by shorting 2 pins on the back)
2. (VERY IMPORTANT!!!) instantly boot to fastboot using Power button + Volume down. this has to be before android starts setting up the phone
3. flash recovery with the image that celephrn provided in this thread
4.boot to recovery by holding Volume up + Power button
5. install the miui update that celephrn provided in this thread
6. reboot to recovery
7. install orange recovery zip that celephrn provided in this thread (phone reboots to recovery)
8. now you can reboot to system (Do NOT (!!!) set the phone up, just let it work its things until you see the MIUI setup screen)
9. Now, finally you can dirty flash your custom rom (and GApps)
10. after flashing the new rom android will throw you alot of errors so you will have to wipe Dalvik/Cache, System, Data and Internal Storage.
11. now you can flash your Rom clean and you're good to go
(huge thanks to celephrn, helped me out after me struggling for a few good weeks with this damn phone)

re flash the ROM. dont flash the magisk or twrp after it. you will be saved.
you can use twrp via adb boot twrpxx.img So flashing it not needed.
Magisk installation has now become trickier simply flashing via recovery won't work
