Installing TWRP shouldn't cause those issues but I would suggest installing TWRP using Fastboot. Instructions found here under the section titled "Fastboot Install Method (No Root Required):"

After wording it differently in Google, I have found that it's a known bug with no work around currently. It's random. Installing TWRP I think was a coincidence

OP3t - Can't enter TWRP, OOS is working!

Hi, i unlocked bootloader, rooted, changed fonts, but stayed on OOS 4.0.3, no issues.
Somehow i used freedom App, it had write permission issue, i installed root explorer and change apps permissions. Then i tried to data format phone to bring it back to normal
Now issue is, OOS 4.0.3 is working i can boot into it and use phone.
But when i enter TWRP by any means it stays stuck at logo. I long press power button to boot back into OOS.
Now i can't do anything, i mean no future updates? or i can't even factory data reset?
I tried to reflash same TWRP 3.0.4.1 again and again in fastboot? still stuck at logo.
Thanks for help in advance.

Have you even searched this issue.
It's been asked and answered hundreds of times.
Even if you have googled it you would have got your answer
Next time before posting plz search your issue.
To answer the question OOS uses f2fs system and twrp takes a while to boot on f2fs system so when you see twrp logo just wait for 3 to 5 minutes (sometimes can take 10 minutes)

Thanks dude, but i searched half an hour and i could not find specific thread telling this issue. Even though its not same for everyone.
first time i had to wait for 5 minutes. even my phone is empty, i flashed stock recovery, locked bootlader, side loaded 4.0.3. again unlocked, flashed TWRP 3.0.4.1. But now when i try to enter it after wait of 20 minutes as well, it dont let me in. So i cant root again and i root for just to change fonts.
When i try to format user data when i was able to enter previously it says mount error and error 255 cannot format.
in fastboot format user data, it says it is not allowed.
how can i fix this ?

Twrp mr.raines password fix

So, ive seen many complaints about this but, so far I havent seen anyone fix it. I know there are youtube videos and ppl have their methods but, these methods arent working for me. Obviously I have a Mi Mix. Whenever I boot into twrp it asks me for a password. Does anyone have a step by step way of helping me fix this? Otherwise, I think im just going to just give up.

The only clue we had as to a solution was this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/help/twrp-0mb-t3740252
Not sure what twrp, rom, etc he was using, but he claimed he was encrypted and was able to decrypt in recovery. This has become a real issue with all the oreo roms, but has been an issue for me since day 1 Mi Mix...

Try removing any lockscreen password, including pattern, which is handled like a password.
Try formatting your memory to get rid of encryption.
Try a different TWRP, I use this one by raupe:

So there isnt really a fix for the specific TWRP (Mr.Raines)?

I dont know which Mi Mix that I have. I think its the global version, and so far the only TWRP that I can get on it is the one by Mr.Raines. Everything else seeme to fail. Other than trying a new different TWRP. Do we just have to wait for this to be fixed?

The best solution for now is to decrypt your data partition. This involves formatting your data partition in twrp and ensuring that it doesn't encrypt on first boot into whatever rom your using.
Im not sure on the particulars, but there is plenty of information in this forum to help you proceed if thats the route you plan to take. Its how i get around it for now.

I have the same problem, stuck on the same page...
Mi Mix 256/6 Global Rom
Also for me it's not possible to enter TWRP direct from a boot with VOL+ and POWER... it's then in mi recovery 3.0
So if anyone can help to solve this I would be very thankful. I really want to use this baby in the Dutch language but then I need to install the xiaomi.eu rom first....

Try flashing Raupes TWRP. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/development/recovery-official-twrp-xiaomi-mi-mix-t3498960/
After flashing it via fastboot, turn the phone off first and then use the volume and power button to boot into recovery rather than going from fastboot straight into recovery mode.

Initial booting into recovery(twrp) should be done from fastboot via ''fastboot boot twrp_xxx.img'' code. Otherwise it would get into stock recovery.

When I did that I ended up in stock recovery time after time. Turning of my phone and turn it on again seemed not to cause this issue. For me.

After flashing recovery, from the fastboot screen you can hold down Vol up and power buttons till it reboots. You will then be taken straight to your custom recovery.

Thank you for your help.. Here is the solution that worked for me..
I am not allowed to post links but the answer is on the xiaomi.eu forum under Mi Mix: topic starter Eddy Zwets

Redmi K20 Pro / Mi 9t pro stuck in the boot logo please help

My device is stuck in the initial boot sequence in which the logo will show as if it is booting normally, then it will stay on this screen until it goes completely blank, at which point I have to hold the power button for a long period of time to get it back to the boot sequence. My phone is unlocked and I was trying my first time at flashing a custom recovery and OS, I flashed my device with TWRP and successfully installed it along with a flash of pixel experience, After using pixel experience I wanted to try lineage OS since it wasn't as good as I hoped, so I tried to get into the TWRP and I could not do it at all I tried every method I could search. After an hour of trying different methods of getting to twrp I tried to re-flash the recovery and that is when the phone because unresponsive and does what I have described above. I currently have access to fast boot and I dont want to go ****ing my phone up more than I have. If anyone can give me a step by step guide on how to fix this it would help so much since im new to android and I cant afford another £400 phone.
Thanks

Don't worry, things can be recovered easily. Until you get more knowledgeable and you understand more about flashing use this failsafe to recover from (almost) anything
Go here and get the latest fastboot ROM for your phone.
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/raphael/
For now make sure you get the one that matches the region for your phone.
Then follow this guide to flash it
https://c.mi.com/thread-1857937-1-1.html
Use the fastboot flashing section.
Make sure you change the flash option to 'clean all' when flashing. The default option will lock the bootloader again after flashing. If you do the default option with any ROM that is not the same region as the phone you will hard brick the phone, this is why I recommend getting the ROM that matches your phone.
When unpacking the fastboot ROM, it is a Linux/Unix zipped tarball, most Windows zip software will need to extract it twice. The first time will give you a single .tar file (if it doesn't have an extension then rename it and add .tar to the end) You will then need to extract everything from the tar file, which you give you the folder, containing the ROM data, to point the Mi Flash Tool at.
After doing this you, if you've remembered to change the flash option to 'clean all', then you'll have restored to stock and kept the bootloader unlocked. Now you're good to try again.
Keep a copy of the fastboot ROM on your PC and back everything up on your phone before flashing. Then if you get in a mess you know how to easily recover things.
Once you get more experienced there will be other things you might be able to do, depending on the situation, that allow you to get things working without losing everything and needing to start from scratch.

Thanks

Thank you so much for the details post, I will try what you have said above and will report back with my results. I have one question if you know the answer ( My phone is the UK edition of the Mi 9T pro ) Would I need to download the global or EEA fastboot version.

For safety download the EEA ROM.

I also suggest you immediately flash dm_verity (https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/flashing-orangefox-recovery-mi-9t-pro-t3980579), after you flash twrp, wipe data and then flash that

Everything you said worded flawlessly and your a life saver. If you dont mind do you have a link to a set of guides on how to correctly flash a custom recovery and lineage OS? since when I try to research these guides I get 5 different versions of TWRP and lock my phone out :laugh:

If you dont mind me asking could you go into slightly more detial on that since I have seen orange fox but I dont understand what dm_verity is.

Please ignore all reply's above as I am going to make another separate post about lineage OS
Thank you for replying and resolving my issue.

Can't reboot my phone - Softbrick

I think I have the weirdest soft brick ever. First of all my device works. I can use every feature with no issues till I reboot.
If my device is rooted and I try to reboot, it stucks on bootloader for about 30 seconds and loops on fastboot. There's no single reboot process gone smooth.
I could earlier fix this issue by flashing system, cache and boot all together from my back up. Now it doesn't work, at least it loops on android booting screen.
My device is MI 9T Pro 128 GB Global.
I flashed Xiaomi.eu 11 latest stable rom via the official TWRP and rooted with magisk.
I tried different TWRP's and OrangeFox to flash Magisk or formatting data but no solutions so far.
First time this happened I also tried to flash 'magisk uninstaller' but it didn't help.
I'm really new to this phone and triggered by this annoying issue. It's been 6 set-ups in 10 days. If anyone can help, that'd be highly appriciated.
