I Got twrp installed, installed a patched boot image, and now I'm caught in a boot loop, buttons do nothing, my computer isn't picking it up, what do I do? Is there anything that I can do?

Shouldn't be using a patched boot image. That's only if there is no TWRP available for your device. Go to the pinned unbricking guide

I had the same issues and just ignored twrp and went ahead and just installed magisk and EdXposed. Is there an official Android 10 twrp I can install?

Ahhhhhh I see where I went wrong. I ended up finding and flashing the correct boot image and now I'm happy

Yes
It feels Great to fix a device you soft bricked correct? Enjoy.! That's the ONLY way you'll learn.

It does indeed, though I do also enjoy having devices that are not softbricked 100% of the time

Reflash the previous version you were running.

Do not use TWRP manager to install recovery. Use Flashify.
TWRP manager flashes to the wrong block. It flashes to mmcblk0p43 where as you need to have it on mmcblk0p44.
What version of firmware are you on. You will need to update your boot image.
To get out on the bootloop I had to install a Rom which was viper Rom 2.4. When I boot my phone, it still shows the twrp splash screen with the red text at the bottom. Doesn't even show boot animation. Seems like it freezes then home screen pops up like nothing's wrong. Any way I can get my HTC splash and aninmation back. Tried flashing a new boot animation but won't take. Is it still trying to boot to twrp.

Like other person said. You flashed your recovery to your system. You need to go to boot loader an fastboot recovery so it goes where it is supposed to. Then enter recovery via bootloader so you r really in recovery then flash your ROM an it will take care of your issue. Always fastboot recovery to avoid these problems.
I did the same thing through TWRP manager, and reflashed recovery through fastboot, restored, works fine. Thanks for the fix

[Q] I might have hard bricked my nexus

I have a nexus 5.
16GB model.
5.1.1
Rooted.
TWRP 2.8.6.1
I was about to flash CM 12.1 .
I pressed wipe but it froze, I left it that way for about an hour and decided to research about what is happening. A lot of comments on some thread I read said that turning it off and then on worked for them and I did the same. Now all I get is a flashing Teamwin logo. The only accessible feature of the phone is the Power off/Start/Bootloader/Restart Bootloader thing-y. Whichever of them I press I get the flashing Teamwin logo.
Just wait it takes awhile

Well you still have access to the bootloader luckily. Best part about a Nexus is that they're difficult to actually brick. Boot your phone into the bootloader and either fastboot flash recovery to reinstall twrp or use fastboot to reflash the stock system images.

Thanks man, that's exactly what I needed. I tried to re-flash TWRP but had the same problem but when I flashed the stock system images everything went back to normal.

TWRP Boot Loop

Hi,
I tried yesterday to return my Nexus 5 to a stock image so that I could do OTA updates. I realised after that I also had to return it to stock recovery because TWRP was not letting it work.
using this tutorial, I booted into the latest TWRP image, which only caused my phone to go into a boot loop, only making it as far as the Teamwin screen. The phone will not load the bootloader to do anything with fastboot.
what are my options?

What do you want to do exactly? Restore stock recovery so that you can take the OTA? If you followed either one of the methods on that thread, you should already be stock, i don't get why you booted TWRP again.
Hi,
As I mentioned, following that tutorial, I just booted into the TWRP image. It wasn't that tutorial I used to flash the stock image. All that I did was get back to the stock android.
I originally did try using their method, but wasn't able to get the .sh script to run so I used another tutorial to flash the android image, but didn't have a boot or recovery that I flashed. I was able to download the update now and tried installing, but it would take me to the TWRP recovery and say that the update failed.
I was following the optional steps at the bottom, thinking that was what I needed to lock everything back up, clearly that wasn't right.

That's what I am asking...I can't load into anything on the Nexus to use fastboot, it is stuck loading into this TWRP image.

Press and hold power for 30 second, the device will try to boot but just keep holding the power. Then press and hold vol down and power. It doesn't boot into the bootloader?

Hi,
I tried this again today and was able to get into it. Yesterday it didn't want to boot into it for some reason. Followed the tutorial I posted from the start to re-flash everything, and so far seems to be working. Hasn't loaded into android yet, just stuck on the loading screen, hoping it's just the initial start up that sometimes takes a while.

FYI the TWRP boot loops are due to MTP bug that was never fully fixed from 2860. It's better than it used to be, but still an issue occasionally, especially if connected to power while you try to get in to TWRP.

Updated to CM12.1 on OPO. Cannot overwrite CM recovery to install custom ROM.

I have long been a user of CM11 on my OPO, but today I wanted to install a custom ROM. As the guide says here I was required to update to CM12.1 beforehand. The updates seem to have overwritten TWRP with Cyanogen Recovery, but whenever I try to flash TWRP back onto my device it always boots back to CM recovery when I boot recovery.
I have followed this guide to attempt to re-flash custom recovery and re-root my device but I seem to have hit a brick wall.
I used the following commands:
*fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
*fastboot reboot

I have disabled CM recovery protection in developer options with no luck. I have also tried older versions of TWRP to no avail.
Can anyone advise me how to get around this problem? Any help is appreciated.
I had this problem when I first tried rooting the phone. Some said that you had to reboot directly to recovery after you had flashed TWRP and then it should presist, but that didn't work for me. The solution that worked (at least for me) was flashing it with a toolkit.

Thanks for your reply. Sorry, I'm a bit out of the loop these days. Could you elaborate on what toolkits I could use?

A quick search would have uncovered a dozen or so threads detailing how to overcome this problem in the very q&a section that you've posted in. Then there's the FAQ thread that's stuck at the top:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/faq-oneplus-one-frequently-questions-t2895136
Then there's my guide stuck in the general section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2839471
I have the same problem, unfortunately most of the suggested fixes in the Q/A sections and all the threads do not help me.
Here is a detailed explanation of what is going on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/installing-custom-recovery-cm12-1-5-1-1-t3232611
If I power down the phone, after flashing recovery, and boot it with power+volume it stays on the OPO logo, screen goes black and reboots again - and if I do not hold the volume button it boots into the normal OS. If i keep holding the volume button the OPO logo keeps appearing and it keeps going to black and reboots again and again.

Thank you for all your responses. I made a thread over on /r/cyanogenmod too and found a solution.
I run the following commands instead:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.7.6.0-bacon.img
fastboot boot twrp-2.7.6.0-bacon.img

This booted into TWRP. Reboot prompted me to install SuperSU. Recovery now boots to TWRP. I'd link the thread but can't as a new user. Hopefully this method works for others too.

Try doing what the poster directly above you did.
I finally managed to get it working by downloading the latest version of TWRP (2.8.3.0) and (if it helped) using the command 'format cache'.
It doesnt stick, but atleast it works.

Device stuck at bootloader unlocked screen

Today I had a strange issue with my Oneplus 7 pro GM1913 running OOS 9.5.5, device unlocked, twrp and rooted. My device ran out of charge and was turned off. When I plugged into the charger, it boots up and for a few second the oneplus logo and charge the device for some time page came in and then the bootloader unlocked screen came in. I haven't charged the device offline after the battery ran out, it was my first time and i thought it was supposed to be like that. But after some time also it was on the same page. Then i plugged out the device and it was stuck on that page. I tired hard reboot, tried to connect to computer. Nothing was successful. Computer showed unknown device and failed to successfully connect. Not recognised as adb device shown nor fastboot device. Then atleast I tried entering into fastboot mode by pressing power button + volume up. At that time it rebooted into system and then everything was okay. But then i noticed i also lost the twrp recovery. Then i had to flash twrp through magisk manager.
Anyone has any idea what happened? Thanks in advance
You have to flash magisk again after flashing TWRP.

Thanks!!!
I had exactly the same problem. System was running fine with just Magisk installed (I boot TWRP with fastboot on a computer).
Then I ran completely out of charge, and the OP7Pro wouldn't boot anymore: at power on, it shows briefly the OnePlus logo, then displays the boot loader unlocked warning for a very long time (a few minutes), then goes to the bootloader menu.
I can boot TWRP and unlock the data partition. I will try flashing the stock boot and see what happens (and report).
Edit: I had to reflash stock boot and system to have the device boot again.
hi guys,please need help;I have just unlock bootloader on my one plus 7 pro and i was fastboot it with twrp img but i didn't install the twrp recovery one my phone so now the phone blocked on de bootloader unlock screen, I tried to switched of but always back on the same screen, please need help how to do ,thanks

I figured it out. basically when i get to the above attached image I was required to hold volume up+down+power key until the fastmode doesn't comes up. It will take 20-25 seconds. So you will be required to hold it for that long.
