if anything make sure fast boot is turned off

have you tried to get into fastboot and enter recovery that way?


i had this same problem when i used Goo Manager
i had to reflash a Recovery to work


if anything. try plugging your phone into the computer and using CMD try "adb reboot recovery"


if anything you might want to just try flashing a new Recovery.img

Sorry I should add that when I try to get into recovery it goes to the red triangle. But I'll try running the command as well. I've tried fastboot to recovery, apps that boot to recovery.

You need to flash your recovery again. Somehow it is back to stock. Did you upgrade firmware? Anyways, plug phone in
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp"or whatever".img
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery

How did you put a new Rom on if you can't get to recovery? What command are you using to flash recovery?

I reflashed a recovery through fastboot, flashed the new Rom and then it boots, but when I try to get back to recovery after new Rom I get the triangle. I've tried two different recoveries and two different roms!

That is the wrong command.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash boot is flashing recovery as your rom, then it is loading and you are loading a new rom which overwrites the boot.img you just flashed therefore never having a recovery. every time you flash "fastboot flash boot *.img" it is killing your rom. flash recovery properly and reinstall rom
