When I try to just boot into custom recovery, everything goes well except that the phone just reboots. it does not boot into custom recovery. I heard it from somewhere that fastboot boot recovery.img command did not work anymore. Is this true?

LG G5 [T-Mobile Variant] Cannot access recovery

I have a problem which through thorough google searches, I haven't been able to find an answer to. I'm trying to flash a custom recovery onto an LG G5, as probably presumed in the topic name, utilizing fastboot and it never seems to flash so I tried to go into the stock recovery and found that there wasn't a recovery at all. It simply shows the android bot with an open stomach and says no command. How would I go about getting a recovery on it, if at all possible?

some weeks ago i read on forum that miui10.0.3 or 4 has some fastboot errors,
for example if you have flashed miui10.0.3 or 10.0.4 and then try to write recovery it will give error in fastboot
i would suggest flash miui10.0.1 or earlier via miuiflasher fastboot rom and then try!

Anti Rollback

Hi everyone, couldn't find anything relevant on the internet and the forum about the rollback problem, there is any way to install custons ROMs with that anabled? since i bought my moto g8 power mid last year i never could install any custom rom because of that, fastboot always give me anti-rollbakc warning and won't flash some partitons so it always ended up bootlooping and i go back to stock, there is any way to disable that feature? or bypass, how can i solve this problem?
Below is the fastboot log of what usually happens.
Code:

You definitely are in fastboot d? Not just the bootloader?
When you are flashing the inages, if you have a green robot and some text down the bottom, that is fastboot/bootloader.
Fastboot d is different, you will definitely know if you are in fastboot d.

That was on bootloader, i searched about the fastboot d but couldn't find any explanation/tutorial how to enter it, i tried the command fastboot reboot fastboot but it gives unknown fastboot target, can you help me?
Fastboot reboot fastboot is the correct way from the bootloader.
You need to update your platform tools.
Also you need to be on android 10 for these roms to boot.
One of the guys helped me out with this earlier. After you've unlocked your boot loader and if your on android 11.
Use rescue & smart assistant to backup your stock rom, it will tell you what kind it is too....
Then go download the android 10 stock version.
Then use moto tools by vache and load the android 10 stock rom into it. Just follow the directions and place it in bootloader.
after that flash whatever puppy of your choosing. Also I'd advise against flashing twrp just boot it. Also if you do use twrp, make sure you don't reboot from side B! you will brick your device....

Thansk for the tips, it is really important to set the partitions, i was struggling a lot to boot system since twrp redirected things to side B while A was set, i don't know why but now everthing is running flawlessly

Download Mode - Restart loop after installing OS

Adroid One 10
Unlock solved and installed the lineage OS a several times in twrp with success according to the given instruction here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RaghuVarma331/changelogs/master/crossdevelopment/abcrins.txt
but the phone didnt boot the OS after restarting neither in slot A nor B. In twrp u could read that there was "no OS installed" (??).
In the last try i changed the slot before installing and now the phone hangs in a restart loop with download mode and i connot turn down the phone or get back to twrp. Trying to connect it by adb to restart twrp is not working....
=========================
My errors while trying to get out:
=========================
fastboot boot twrp.img
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot boot B:\Various\Nokia\TWRP\twrp.img

finished. total time: 0.968s
So right now I'm at the end with my rudementary skills here.
Any idea how to get back to the point with twrp and installing an OS?
Thanks.
In case that no one else answers but someone else have the same problems , I write my solutions here.
.......
I got back to twrp by changing the slot in ADB
fastboot --set-active=a
unfortunately the restart loop doesn't end and no OS starts wether in slot a or b.
