Phone restarts if I enter TWRP - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

The problem is in the title:
If I try to enter recovery mode from being off or from ADB/fastboot the phone just restarts.
I've also tried booting the img directly using
'fastboot boot twrp.img' but the screen went black and restarted after 30 seconds.
Note: I can use my phone as usual except for some slight problems like the Google messages app crashing on open. None of these issues happened before my phone was sent to repairs for a broken screen
Edit: I've tried flashing twrp 3.4.0-0 and 3.2.3-0 to no avail

You have not original LCD panel. Try another twrp.
This one should work.

[Q] After flashing TWRP 2.6.1.0 recovery hangs

While attempting to root my device I flashed the recovery successfully with twrp 2.6.1.0 via fastboot terminal on my PC. Device booted to "HTC quietly brilliant" white screen and then does not progress beyond that point. I rebooted into recovery and using TWRP i installed the superuser.zip and it completed successfully. I then reboot again, but does not progress past the "HTC quietly brilliant" white screen (with developer message in red letters at bottom of screen). Device does not progress past this point, I have left for up to 20 min and simply does not proceed.
I am new to the community and probably did some noob mistake, just don't know where. Do I need to flash a ROM? I can reboot into fastboot or recovery, but no OS loads.
I seem to remember seeing here that you need to use 2.5 because 2.6... doesn't work............
flashed TWRP 2.5.0.0 no luck
I re-flashed successfully from 2.6 to 2.5 variant and still same response. I don't have any idea where to go from here.
some success...

Some progress......flashed TWRP 2.5 via fastboot --> sideloaded stock ROM_deodexed 1.31.XXX and was successful at getting phone to boot properly.
Only problem I have noticed at this point is that my gallery keeps crashing when loading my photos, but everything else seems fine. Not a big deal, but when using Zoe mode it saves each frame as a separate photo and can be difficult to navigate efficiently.

OnePlus 3 may be bricked (Recovery won't load

I'm not sure, but my OnePlus 3 may be bricked.
I was running FreedomOS rooted, and with TWRP recovery installed. I downloaded a substratum theme, and installed it on the phone. When I rebooted the phone to apply the changes to the UI, the phone went into a bootloop. So i try to go to the recovery, by entering it via fastboot mode. Now it's basically acting like there isn't a recovery, neither twrp or stock recovery come up, just a black screen. The OnePlus splash screen shows up for about 10 seconds, then the screen goes blank. So when I try to load a recovery via fastboot flash on my computer, it still doesn't work. I've tried multiple versions of TWRP, and the stock recovery, and nothings working so fatr. Any tips or suggestions would be very much appreciated, thanks.

I know I have done few things wrong in confusion, but realized later on. It is H811 TMO model for sure.
I did select refurbished while using LG UP
My phone is not completely dead.
Pressing power button it stuck on LG logo with unlocked boot loader msg. not going to the bootloop.
I am unable to enter download mode, it responds but freeze before entering download showing 4 blue dots.
I am able to enter recovery but I can not hard reset as it always freezes on 2nd hard reset screen and not formatting.
No charging, Device Manager shows nothing.
Is there a way to recover??

Stuck on TWRP splash-screen + P10 only boots into recovery

SOLUTION: Turns out I was still able to boot into eRecovery. From there I could reboot normally into the system. I then went into fastboot and flashed Blackball's TWRP 3.2.1-0 build for Oreo. Everything boots smoothly now.
Hello,
today I decided to try and flash the ResurrectionRemix-GSI to my Huawei P10 (EMUI 8.0) which was successful at first. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP via fastboot (First Link to TWRP in this thread). From TWRP I did a complete backup and wipe and installed ResurrectionRemix (ARM64 A-only from this thread). The system booted up just fine and everything seemed to work like a charm. I then went on to boot into recovery again, because I wanted to install the pico package from OpenGApps.
The problem now is that I'm stuck on the splash screen of TWRP. When I try to turn off the phone by holing the power button, it just reboots to recovery, which greets me with the everlasting splash screen. I have also tried rebooting the phone via adb -> same result. And to make it even better: When I try to get into fastboot mode via "adb reboot bootloader", I get thrown back into recovery as well.
My current "strategy" is to just drain the battery and hope for the best (well... I can't even turn the phone off anyway). I've read that other people have waited up to 6 min for TWRP's splash screen to dissapear. I'm waiting for roughly an hour now, so I'm pretty positive, that it's stuck.
Hope someone can help.
UPDATE: The battery has drained now. When I connected the phone to its charger, it went straight into recovery and is stuck again. Fastboot still doesn't work.
Huawei phones do not seem to go along very well with TWRP for installing GSIs. The original recovery is required to do a factory reset, before you can boot into system. Can you reboot in fastboot mode? If yes I would flash the original recovery and system from fastboot. It is clearly explained on the Openkirin.net website. I can also recommend flashing one of their GSIs, since they include the Huawei camera and nano Gapps.

No, I can't boot into fastboot mode, at least not via adb (only method I know of). When I run "adb reboot bootloader" it just throws me back into recovery mode with the splash-screen stuck.
