So I'm not able to install a custom recovery. Adb and fastboot commands work. Fastboot boot recovery causes the phone screen to change to the fastboot mode black and white image but just hangs. Fastboot commands still work there. Bootloader is currently unlocked.

My Le 1s sucked on boot screen. I already installed TWRP on my mobile. Then downloaded stock rom from http://forum.le.com/in/eui_detail.html?euiid=205. and installed using adb sideload. Everything worked fine. But TWRP not working. Then I flashed TWRP image using adb fastboot. After installed, I used "fastboot reboot" command. But it is not worked. Then I rebooted normally.
After rebooting the device, it automatically go to the recovery mode. Same happen when power on the device. In recovery also TWRP not working. Custom recovery also not showing. After few second, it again going to normal boot. It repeated again and again
Can't use any adb comment on system. What should I try now?
Commant Used:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
Pressed volume up to confirm unlock
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
whenever i try to go into recovery mode, it takes me to the default one even after i flashed twrp. my bootloader is unlocked and i flashed twrp several times. even when i use the command prompt from fastboot mode it still takes me to the default recovery. any ideas to what's wrong?

This could be a solution or a workaround:
"Hello i just had a personal experience with my Asus zenfone selfie Z00T Stock recovery kept replacing TWRP. (Boot loader already unlocked)
This is how i got around it i downloaded the latest TWRP for my device and placed directly in minimal adb and fastboot app folder then i renamed it to recovery .
then i put my device in fastboot mode using the buttons on the phone and After i ran minimal adb and fastboot app as admin then i typed fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
once done i then i typed fastboot boot recovery.img. and my phone booted to twrp recovery then i selected reboot recovery directly on my phone and to finish reboot system (still in twrp) that's it.
(OEM commands to boot from fastboot to recovery do not work on some devices )
it only worked for me eventually because i downloaded the latest TWRP from the official TWRP website.
The idea is to flash the custom recovery and then booting from the custom recovery.img that you just used to flash (the one still on the pc) using minimal adb and fastboot app.
IT may not work on all devices as the commands may change from one device to another but the idea stays the same. (example for nexus fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot recovery.img)
I hope this will help some people out."
sill not booting into twrp

Okay, I was a bit too early with that. The next time I turned off the phone and tried booting to recovery (Vol up+pwr), I got booted into factory recovery (mi-recovery 3.0) :/

Update:
I found the solution. I followed the steps in this article:

Try this:
when you are in fastboot mode type:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
This command will boot your phone to twrp. Install twrp .zip file (there are 2 options when installing .img or .zip)
after this go to ADB/Sideload - This is in Advanced section
Then swipe to start a sideload. Now on your pc type:
Code:
adb sideload recovery.zip
This worked for me. I hope this works for you too
I have unlocked bootloader.
I enabled adb debugging from developer settings.
1. adb reboot bootloader
2. fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (tried all of those: peter's, from twrp website, from link on lineageos official thread)
Up to this point everything works fine
3A. fastboot reboot then hold PWR+VOL_UP
3B. Hold PWR+VOL_UP
And at this step I am seeing fastboot logo plus "Unlocked" label at bottom (while in regular fastboot I don't see Unlocked label)
My best guess that something went wrong while booting into twrp, and it fallbacks to fastboot. However I have no clue how to check what's wrong, where to check any logs etc.
Any help appreciated
My advice would be to flash recovery again and manually reboot into recovery and not using fastboot reboot
If this doesnt work flash rom again via bootloader....Then flash recovery....Do Not use fastboot reboot....
Manually holding buttons go into recovery
So, Iwas using Havoc Os 3.8 on my realme 5i, but I wanted to lock bootloader again, then I entered fastboot mode and locked bootloader, but I stucked in fastboot mode, It looped. Could not enter recovery or system. Only fastboot mode, because bootloader is locked I couldnt flash anything. I tried fastboot flashing unlock command but it did not work.
But solution was very easy, fastboot was not actually fastboot, everytime I power off device and power up there was not fastboot writing and robot icon, just directly fastboot itself. So actually it is fake fastboot, you just need to use volume buttons and select reboot to bootloader option, once device reboot you will see now fastboot- robot icon then fastboot itself, now you can unlock device with "fastboot flashing unlock_critical" command.
First, power off. Then wait for couple of minutes then start fastboot again.
I have Mix 3, unlocked bootloader. I made a flash of the latest TWRP 3.5 perseus for Mix 3 with the command:
fastboot flash revovery twrp.img
Later I used the command:
fastboot boot twrp.img
the phone is rebooting and there is only a black screen. When I restart it manually and enter recovery, there is only a stock version (MiRecovery)
I have exactly the same problem. It only works when I execute the command
fastboot flash revovery twrp.img
twice.
However it I try to install any custom ROM via TWRP it ends up in a bootloop...

Thanks for the hint, i was desperate, it wouldn't boot into twrp at all, even with "fastboot boot twrp.img". Now let's flash some custom rom hoping it won't bootloop...
