Soft bricked my 550

Wiped all partitions with TWRP.
Reloaded all partitions from a known good TWRP backup.
Phone hangs on splash screen and will not go past SS.
I can still get into TWRP recovery and also boot loader (fastboot)
Help!!
Boowho??
EDIT: Got it unbricked.

boot loop after installing twrp 2.8.7.2

so after i unlocked my bootloader, installed twrp 2.8.7.2, rebooted boot loader and went into recovery, i was greeted by twrp but it asked me for a decryption password (which i never set up) and Heisnberg said I wouldn't have worry about here under section 3 of how to decrypt the data partition "This is no longer necessary as long as you use TWRP 2.8.7.1 or newer". So I tried making a nandroid backup as normal, but that failed because twrp couldn't get to the data partition, unlike what Heisnberg said. So i just restarted the phone, and now I'm in a boot loop (about to flash factory image now).
So what I want to know is what twrp ppl use, do you have to do the decrypt data partition step, and the practical differences between systemless and nonsystemless root? why would anyone want to do systemless root if it doesn't work with all root apps?
Thank you so much for anyone who replies :angel:

bootloop after flashing recovery

hey,
I wanted to root my nexus 5x too, first I tried to do so with the nexus tool kit....
it was all working until it came to the root process:
it said in the log:
Rooting....
Waiting for your device....
and nothing else happened anymore.
So I tried it manually with a guide.
As the bootloader was already unlocked, I continued with flashing the recovery (twrp 2.8.7.2) in fastboot.
Then it rebooted into the recovery.
Then twrp asked me for a password, (Mount) decrypt Data. I skip it without entering a password. And I didn't add a pattern or PIN to unlock my phone at the first boot up.
I allowed the system modification then... so then before rebooting, twrp wasn't asking me if I want to flash the SuperSu.
Since this I'm stuck in a bootloop.
I can boot into the bootloader and recovery, I also tried to do a factory wipe or also formating data. But none of them worked for me. I'm still stuck in the bootloop...
I have no idea what to do now....
I'm really thankfull for every kind of help!
sorry wrong subforum...
Try to reflash TWRP over adb-console(on your pc) and then Root- Systemless version.
If you have any questions ask!!

I have to add something which i forgot to mention.....after I flashed the recovery and booted into it for the first time, twrp asked me for a password, (Mount) decrypt Data. I skip it without entering a password. And I didn't add a pattern or PIN to unlock my phone at the first boot up.
I'm not able boot my phone up anymore.... I can try to flash the recovery with fastboot again...if this is what you mean?
okay i pushed the supersu zip onto the phone, and just flashed it. And my phone is booting normally now
thank you very very much. you saved me and my phone
That's nice to hear.
Have Fun with your Phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q]TWRP Backup restoration after rooting & flashing custom recovery

Hello everyone, good morning.
So, after getting AntiRB brick and having to purchase an account from a website to get my phone working, I decided to ask a question before doing the same s**t again.
So, my question is
I am on AntiRB 4. I flash the dummy.img provided in another thread to get the TWRP flashed, I boot in TWRP and take a TWRP backup immediatly. **** happens and getting a bootloop or smthin. Can I restore the TWRP backup or I will get a AntiRB brick again ?
thank u 4 ur time.
Hello,
you are a kamikaze ?
clean install and do not restore !
I thought with anti roll back you have to do "fastboot boot twrp.img" and not "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" correct me if i'm wrong.
Maybe this was your problem?

Help! -Unable to backup system image

Neither TWRP nor Orangefox recovery are able to do full backup because of something to do with system image in my device; every time I try to do full backup, it stop halfway through the process while backing up system image, and then it suddenly stops and tells me that it failed then cancels.
I've just unlocked the bootloader, flashed the modified vbmeta.zip, and installed TWRP recovery and it gave me this failure. Then I tried Orangefox and it's the same thing.
I'm not sure what's wrong or how to fix it, but hopefully someone helps me with this, and thanks.
