Tried rooting my old Moto E4 (Perry), everything went fine, bootloader unlocked, accidentally allowed system update and that rebooted my phone into TWRP recovery, which I flashed because I wanted to root my phone, went into deeper trouble when I thought it would be a good idea to clear everything and flash a custom rom hoping that would work, still rebooted into recovery Everytime, when I reboot into bootloader it's going into bootloader, but otherwise it's always recovery.

Flash the firmware and then re root if you want to do so.
Went into even deeper trouble somehow, flashed xt1766 firmware (Sprint one), when I actually had to flash a xt1768, the 1766 firmware had a flash batch file, the xt1768 one doesn't have that so downloaded Motorola rsd flasher tool, the device is not getting detected, therefore can't go ahead with the firmware flash, feeling like a complete idiot RN

Can you boot into fastboot?
Yeah man fastboot is working fine, tried a couple commands through adb, even the phone boots up and performs every function, wifi and simcard are not working, cuz wrong firmware, so the classic rsd Motorola flasher tool, that's the main roadblock for me, it's not detecting my phone, tried a couple different cables too, now trying to install an older version of rsd flasher, hoping that works
