Stock recovery overriding TWRP - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have flashed TWRP on my oneplus 2 through fastboot by typing "fastboot flash recovery ./Desktop/OP2/recovery.img" (remove quotations). However, when I go into recovery mode, the stock recovery shows up. I have unlocked bootloader too btw. Can anyone help me solve this (put it in simple terms please)

Try to boot in recovery first time phone restart

Can't enter recovery anymore [TWRP]

Yesterday I've been trying to root my device using the official Oneplus video on YouTube . Everything was fine until I tried to flash the recovery. I flashed TWRP recovery using adb fastboot flash recovery (file) but then when I entered recovery the recovery didn't change. So I flashed it again, went into recovery and I finally got TWRP recovery. Then I flashed SuperSU and rooted my device. But now when I try to enter recovery I just get a black screen (OP logo not even showing). I can still enter fastboot and the operating system. If I use a booting app I see the Oneplus logo but after that it's a black screen so I need to press the power button for a couple of seconds to power it on. What can I do to solve this? The recovery is important for me.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT 1: If I check if my bootloader is unlocked using android sdk I see that my bootloader is locked. I am sure that I unlocked the bootloader before rooting my device. My mind is completely ****ed atm do I need to do everything again?

download that toolkit. It worked for many.
Any update on how it worked out?

Toolbox works very well, I think is the best tool for our OnePlus2.

[Help] I cannot get my zenfone 2 into recovery mode.

I've tried everything I could find with a google search but I haven't found anybody with a similar problem. I cannot boot into recovery mode as every time I select recovery mode I get sent back to the fastboot screen. I can use normal boot and my phone starts up fine but choosing recovery mode just brings me through an endless loop of going to the fastboot screen. Anybody know a way around this?

It usually occurs simply because it cannot boot into recovery. This may be due to accidentally wiping the recovery partition, thus having no recovery to boot to at all, or that you flashed an incompatible recovery onto your device.
Fret not, just a few simple commands should get your phone back alive and kicking.
First, download the recovery.img (ZE550KL) at https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6QXDUz9wzc9bUZaOHJsTzBhcVk
Then, boot your device into recovery mode.
Once done, type the command, in order,
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot oem reboot-recovery
Do take note that you would need to have ADB tools installed, a reliable connection to your computer, ASUS drivers in order for your device to be detected, and some knowledge on where to place the recovery.img in order for the commands above to work. If you need any help, please feel free to ask. Also, since you did not state the variant of your device, I had put the ZE550KL recovery.img instead. If your device is of another variant, please inform me immediately and I will get the recovery.img up for you.

Thanks so much, this worked. I have a ze551ML but I had a stock recovery already on my drive. I've been trying to install the twrp recovery for the last two days but have been completely unable. Although the "fastboot oem reboot-recovery" failed as adb didn't recognize the OEM remote. Any idea why the most up to date twrp recovery has not worked in the least?

You need to unlock the bootloader first. There are plenty of guides online about how to do this, unofficial and officially. Also, there's a dedicated forum for your device variant, named "ASUS ZenFone 2"
This forum here is for the Laser variants.

Reflash a stable recovery from fastboot. And make sure you're using the correct one.

Ascend XT H1611 – Bricked

Hello,
Can anyone assist me in fixing my issue? My phone couldn't boot to recovery mode, i see the TWRP bluescreen and it immediately enters the boot loop. I can boot to fastboot&rescue mode but adb is not detecting my devices. I tried reinstalling the driver and also restart the adb server, but no luck. Tried different USB ports \cable\laptop, but no luck.
Need some assistance or direction to address this issue.
Regards

adb does not work in the bootloader (Fastboot mode)
in bootloader use
fastboot boot twrp.img
just be sure twrp has the correct name and is in the same folder as adb / fastboot
@sri1225,
Adding to clsA post:
If the phone is in fastboot mode, "fastboot devices" should work to confirm PC connection is good and produces a similar response as "adb devices" does when in adb mode.
What led up to the phone getting broken? You said it's bricked - so it won't boot up to normal operating mode?

I tried to flash with the B180+Stock+Rom, after that I cannot go back to TWRP or in recovery mode.
When I do the "fastboot boot twrp.img", in the fastboot&rescue mode, the phone reboots to twrp screen and goes back to the boot loop again. I have tried both the twrp images available in the forum for this device.

The B180 stock rom replaces TWRP with stock recovery
If you want TWRP again flash it from the bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
when you enter TWRP
goto Wipe/Format Data/ and type yes
now you can root the phone or leave it as is
Fwiw, the 'boot' command only boots twrp, it doesn't flash it. Thats useful for testing that twrp works. The proper command to flash is immediately above this post. Take it from me - always test first. If it boots, it works.

Try the command 'fastboot devices', what does it output..? Are you sure you are in fastboot mode, with the screen and the Android with its chest popped open..?

Unable to flash TWRP on Moto e3 power with latest software update

I'm trying to flash TWRP (twrp-3.2.1-0-taido.img) on my Moto E3 Power. I had successfully rooted this phone once, and that's why the phone is unlocked. So when I try to flash custom recovery using the command "sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-0-taido.img", it says it completed successfully, but instead of booting into twrp, my phone is starting up completely. When I tried booting up custom recovery using "sudo fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-taido.img", the same thing happened again.
The software on my phone is "23.0.XT1706_S151_180706_ROW". So far I've been unable to flash twrp on this phone, but I got it to work an year ago. Please, can anyone help me what's going wrong here? I'm following the tips on xda-forums using which other users were able to flash the same recovery on their phones.
you can try this
