After updating the MIUI, I found to my dismay that TWRP was gone.
But the phone status still says "unlocked".
I re-flashed TWRP but did not boot into it directly.
When I wanted to enter TWRP later (after having booted notmally once), TWRP was still gone. Just the stock bootloader.
Could it be that I have to flash and then boot into TWRP directly in order to make it persistent?
Yes. After flashing twrp boot to recovery or else the recovery restores to stock recovery.
Ok. Will do it this weekend.

Ok, unlocked my bootloader via the command fastboot OEM unlock, then I flashed TWRP 2.6.0.0. I pressed Start on the bootloader, the my Nexus went into recovery mode, so I tapped reboot, and TWRP said No OS Installed!. Now I know this is a soft-brick (how can it be brick since there is no OS?) since I can restart my device. I would have just went and reinstalled a factory image right, but I am here asking if I can just install Cyganmod 10.2 instead, even though Android is gone?

It will boot but it now hangs at the boot animation
Please, describe, what exactly you want to do?
Stock rooted ROM with TWRP?
CM or any other ROM?
Or a what?
You can. Why an old as **** twrp and rom though?
If this is a newer build, man date 12/14 or later you need to use multirom TWRP. See here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562
Today I have faced a strange situation, I installed TWRP (after unlocking the bootloader) on my OP3 as soon as I received the device then I flashed custom ROM by @Grarak http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-13-t3399089.
After using for some days I decided to give Oxygen OS another try, so I wiped the cache,data,system and Flashed full OTA provided by @namanbhalla https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...ficial-oxygen-os-roms-and-ota-updates.450783/
Every thing went smooth but after starting up I wasn't able to goto twrp, for some strange reason twrp was automatically replaced with stock recovery. OK, I decided to reflash twrp, but bang! after so many flashing I wasn't able to boot into twrp, still there was stock recovery.
Solution:
1) fastboot oem unlock (re run even if it says already unlocked)
2) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-oneplus3.img
now TWRP is installed.
I not Android Developer and cant guarantee above will work and wont harm your device. Try at your own risk.
that is all not needed, i have had this happen to me multiple times reflashing Stock and Stock recovery replaces TWRP, all u have to do is boot up to fastboot mode and flash TWRP, do not reboot, use Power + Vol + and when the Unlocked bootloader screen comes up press the VOL key and click recovery and TWRP is back. no need to do the unlock bootloader again, unless u unchecked it, just make sure it is checked when flashing the Stock rom again or u can just use flashify if u rooted stock before the recovery got replaced somehow, i have even had this happen on FreedomOS 3.2.1
I was on OOS community build 3.5.3 with modified twrp-3.0.2-19-oneplus3.
I wiped everything except internal storage after that I tried to flash official TWRP.
After installing official twrp via modified TWRP. Niether I can boot into my recovery nor able to install any recovery via fastboot.
it I use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
after installing recovery with this command My bootloader get stuck then I have to again restart my bootloader.
please help
You're probably stil on 3.5.2 firmware which isnt compatible with official twrp. Try and get into fastboot and try flashing modified twrp again. Then reboot in recovery and flash 3.2.6 firmware (not the rom) from modified twrp. Then reboot and flash official twrp from recovery or in flashify app.
i had this problem the other day, fixed this by flashing the modified recovery from a post here turn it off the booted it up by holding vol down + power and somehow it worked i was able to go into twrp

After I flashed TWRP and went to the recovery right after flash, TWRP booted and I did decrypt + allow mods. Once I booted to system and later booted to recovery, TWRP didn't boot and stock recovery booted. Any help?
What I'd try is boot twrp, fastboot boot twrp.img. Then install supersu in twrp. Then boot back into the bootloader and flash twrp.

I'm guessing you are still on the stock ROM and kernel? Flash a different kernel, or depending on flashing root it might modify the boot.img and stop it from doing that too.
So, I successfully unlocked the bootloader, then followed the instructions to install TWRP (which worked initially because I was able to access TWRP immediately after flashing). But how to I access it again once I'm back in the OS? When I click reboot to recovery it always reverts back to the stock recovery. I'm still on the stock OS, but I just assumed once TWRP was installed I could boot into it from there. What am I missing?
Solved the problem by getting Magisk installed and using Flashify app to flash the downloaded TWRP img.
@brGabriel just use the fastboot commands as mentioned by manojpawarsj12;
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Don't mess around with Flashify, it's dated and a good way to brick your phone...
