Hi, so I successfully installed TWRP from here, everything went well until this point. I flashed a more stable EU rom and then tried to flash Magisk, but when I rebooted it just went to fastboot mode.
Now everytime I try to turn it off or go back into TWRP it just goes to fastboot mode.
I have tried to flash using MiFlash but I can't seem to get the right thing to flash apparently.
When trying to reinstall TWRP
fastboot boot twrp.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 4.498s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Device Error)
finished. total time: 4.503s

Try firstly erasing your recovery partition with fastboot erase recovery
Somehow I have managed to fix it on my own, thank you for your response regardless @akins0405 @SubwayChamp.
Here's how I fixed it for the people wanting to know:
I flashed boot.img via fastboot, I have no clue if it had effect on what I did afterwards but I think it might.
I moved the folder of all the files to my main C:\ directory, and then tried to flash using MiFlash and it worked.
I'm trilled to have it back in a ''working'' state

I hate to be a newbie but I really read through the entire troubleshooting guide and didn't really understand how to proceed.
I have a rooted Evo 4G LTE with latest stock ROM and TWRP recovery installed (2.5).
This morning my device was pissing me off so I thought it would be a good idea to flash it with CyanogenMod. I went into TWRP, wiped EVERYTHING. loaded the CYanogen Zip on the SD Card, and flashed. Device went right into soft brick.
Tried to flash a couple of other ROMS, also didn't work. in the mean time I discovered BeanStalk which I think is the ROM I want to use.
I have ADB / Fastboot / Latest drivers installed on my computer but when I try to do anything it acts like the device is not connected.
Any advice how to proceed?
From the troubleshooting guide I think my problem might be:
Missing ROM Due to a misunderstanding, you have already wiped all ROM data from phone (cache, dalvik, and system) and fastboot flashed the kernel. Now phone hangs on HTC boot screen and will not load Android. Only the kernel has been flashed, the screen hangs because there is no OS to load. Fear not, return to recovery and flash the ROM package that your boot.image originated from. Now select reboot to system and wait for your phone to restart. The kernel will boot, your OS will load, and all will be right with the world.

But I already tried to flash the rom package ( I think).
Help would be much appreciated! thank you!

If you are s-on you have to fastboot flash or use Flash Image GUI to flash the boot.img/kernel first then flash the rom from twrp

Thanks for the help man, I'm just not sure HOW to flash the boot.img/kernel first then flash the rom from twrp
1. Where do I get the Boot.img/kernel? is it just a file I download?
2. What's the command to flash it to the device?
THANK U
You can get a copy of Flash Image GUI here to flash the kernel or pull the boot.img from the rom zip and put it in the folder you have adb and fastboot in and fastboot flash from there.
Here is a guide you can look at to show you how to do the whole process

Well, clearly "Flash Image GUI" isn't going to help me because as I stated before, my device is in boot loop.
I've placed boot.img in my C:\ROOT folder where I keep all my root related files (like ADB and FASTBOOT) but when I run the command:
fastboot flash boot.img
I get the error: unknown partition 'boot.img' error cannot determine image filename for boot.img
Should be
fastboot flash boot boot.img
at this point it just goes < WAITING FOR DEVICE >
I think this is part of the problem. Even though I installed the latest HTC Drivers it seems the computer isn't recognizing the device. When I'm in TWRP and I mount it - it DOES show up in My computer. But not when I'm at that first boot menu.

Try this
On your PC go to device manager and find your phone, right click and select properties
Select the driver tab
Select update driver
Select browse my comp
Let me pick
Look for ADB USB device or similar should be one of the first couple choices
Select MyHTC install and you should be good
Whats next
OK! turns out I just needed a restart. I ran the command:
C:\ROOT>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (5770 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.899s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 1.461s]
finished. total time: 2.360s
Now what? what's the next command? do I flash the rom? the recovery?

I thought that only happened for the boot animation as in my old cell, the original galaxy s (i9000) i flashed a lot of roms but only the boot animation changed. The start boot splash screen / boot logo was always the same. Even flashing a kernel didn't change it. Thats the reason i asked dont wanna get caught up after doing a One-way process.. atleast till the warranty period
So you mean to say that if i flash the stock ROM back, i'll get back my stock boot logo ??
thanks you work for lollipop 5.1 android one indonesia

Hi xda !
As the title says, my Prime can't get into recovery, and I can't factory reset it from within Android's settings either for some reason. How or why this happened, I don't know. I wish I knew, but it's as if everything related to recovery has just disappeared.
It can boot into Android no problem and I can connect to it via fastboot, which in my eyes just make this whole thing seem even weirder.
The tablet is running stock rooted Android 4.1.1, bootloader version is, I think - not completely sure, US_epad-10.4.2.15-20120917. I am not sure if that is the right number, so here you go:

}
When selecting the recovery option it just hangs there until I reboot the tablet.
So far I've tried flashing TWRP 2.6.3.0-JB through fastboot, which finished successfully (at least according to fastboot, anyway) with no errors. But still recovery is nowhere to be found.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem and get recovery back on my Prime ? Or at least factory reset it without recovery ?

If the "bootloader is unlocked" text while booting the tablet is to be believe, yes, the bootloader is unlocked and the tablet is rooted. Recovery worked fine a couple years ago when I was using CM nightlies on it, then it just stopped working out of nowhere sometime after I got the current stock pre-rooted Jellybean rom on it.
I don't know if flashing Jellybean is what triggered this whole problem in the first place or if it's something that happened afterwards.
What really puzzles me though, is how I can flash TWRP through fastboot "successfully", and it just keeps on not working as if nothing happened.

Sup,
Before proceeding, enable "manufacturer mode" on your phone. This is done by entering in dial pad code *#*#2846579#*#* select "Project Menu", "Background settings", "USB ports settings", "Manufacture mode". Then connect it to PC and Hisuite for drivers.

We managed to install, but internal memory in twrp does not work.
After several attempts to repair twrp. The system does not turn on in the phone. He is now trying to install the rom from the new version using Huawei eRecovery
I also tried to upload the twrp from this topic: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=909546&view=findpost&p=78962423
After uploading by multitool, it does not even turn on twrp.
If someone has uploaded root on this phone, let them write in what way. I've tried many options and still nothing of it.
Sorry my bad english.

hey so, as the title says, i'm currently unable to install the recovery on my phone and have been trying for the past 3 hours or so now :/
Phone's unlocked, adb and fastboot are working ecc.
but whenever i try to flash the TWRP recovery or even boot it i get the FAILED (remote: 'size too large') error and idk what to do about it.
It worked weirdly with the nikel recovery but even then it installed badly and wouldnt let me flash mido roms for whatever reason and yes im 100% sure my phone is a 4x with a snapdragon.
Thanks to anyone that replies and tries to help

So, downloaded the ADB and Fastboot tools, downloaded TWRP, went to the CMD and changed the directory to the adb.
From here i just used the adb reboot bootloader command to get into the fastboot.
Next i used the fastboot flash recovery x.img command to try to flash it but didnt work simply giving me a "FAILED (remote: 'size too large')" on the last part.
I even tried the fastboot boot x.img command.
Also yes when i said flashboot prieviously i meant fastboot mb

So, downloaded the ADB and Fastboot tools, downloaded TWRP, went to the CMD and changed the directory to the adb.
From here i just used the adb reboot bootloader command to get into the fastboot.
Next i used the fastboot flash recovery x.img command to try to flash it but didnt work simply giving me a "FAILED (remote: 'size too large')" on the last part.
I even tried the fastboot boot x.img command.
Also yes when i said flashboot prieviously i meant fastboot mb

Which rom are you using currently? If it is android nougat based then read below, if higher the commands are a bit different I guess,
That is the same way i did it but it might be cause you are flashing wrong recovery.
Try this one :-
https://dl.twrp.me/mido/twrp-3.3.1-0-mido.img
Let me know if it works.

Try using mi flash tool with the same image file, you will find the tool on their official website.

You have MTK variant (Nikel) and trying to flash Snapdragon (Mido) TWRP.
