Stuck on installing TWRP

[Jelleb123]

Hello and thanks in advance to everyone,

I am trying to root my moto g4 but I am stuck on installing a recovery. I did unlock the bootloader and when I turn on the phone i am greeted with"this device is unlocked and can't be trusted"
Yet when i try to flash the recovery it states that it failed to install since the package is unsigned:

C:\Users\Jelle\Desktop\Nieuwe map>mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
target max-sparse-size: 256MB
sending 'recovery' (12496 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.405s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt

OKAY [ 0.344s]
finished. total time: 0.748s

Re-entering my unlock code also does not work as it gives me this message:

C:\Users\Jelle\Desktop\Nieuwe map>fastboot oem unlock NYRTWS*************
...
(bootloader) invalid boot state
OKAY [ -0.000s]
finished. total time: -0.000s

Does someone have any idea on what the issue is, am I missing something?

Thank you in advance!

Twrp is for motog4 plus aka athene. Make sure your device is the same.

Just reboot to recovery after you flash twrp using fast boot. Do not reboot your device to your home screen as your recovery partition will be rewritten with the stock recovery.

Do not worry about the message. It doesn't say that flashing failed. It only gives you a warning that it's not signed. That message is displayed even if you flash the stock recovery using fast boot.

If you're getting a screen with 'no command', that's the stock recovery on your device.

Are you rebooting to the recovery straight after flashing TWRP? Do you have an unlocked bootloader and what version of TWRP are you flashing? What commands are you using to flash?

You may wish to try booting with TWRP first:
1)On a device with an unlocked bootloader, boot to the bootloader screen.
2)Connect your device to your computer via a high quality USB data cable or the original USB cable.
3)Ensure your TWRP image is copied to your ADB folder.
4)Open an ADB terminal. Verify your device is communicating with your computer by typing 'fastboot devices' without quotes. Press Enter. You should get a serial number response.
5)If so, then type 'fastboot boot twrp.img' without quotes. Replace twrp.img with the actual full file name of your TWRP image in your ADB folder including the file extension. For example, if your TWRP image file name is shreps_twrp_3_1_1.img, the full command would be fastboot boot shreps_twrp_3_1_1.img You can type the first few letters of the file name and press Tab on your keyboard to automatically complete the file name if you so wish.
6)Press Enter, and your device should download TWRP and boot to TWRP.
