And now my phone is stuck in a bootloop. I can access TWRP but ADP fails so I cant push any files. What are my options?

Im using linux BTW.

Have you tried restoring the stock recovery and erasing cache?

Flash with adb in fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and when finished fastboot erase cache and after that fastboot reboot.

Stock recovery can be found in the factory image (recovery.img).

Followed this thread, recovered to factory, redid root, rebooted completely, then installed super su, rebooted, factory erase, and now everything is good.

No, I didnt try rooting it before, I just tried unlocking it. After recovering and flashing factory images, I did root, using chainfires tools. Worked perfectly for me.
