KIW-L24 Unlocked device but can't root device

After 2-3 hours of work I finally managed to unlock my Honor5x, but my phone seems to **** up on these few steps of the xda guide:

Step 9
Boot back into the bootloader by typing the following
"adb reboot bootloader"
Step 10
Flash the recovery with the following command:
"fastboot flash recovery twrp_kiwi.img"
Step 11
Once it finishes type the following
"fastboot reboot"

My phone gets recognized by adb generally, but whenever I use the command adb reboot bootloader, immediately after my phone doesn't get recognized by adb anymore, so the following steps don't work. The phone is in bootloader mode however, and it DOES say that it's unlocked.

Things I've tried:
Using different USB ports
Using different USB s
Unplugging and replugging while my phone is in fastboot
Installing TWRP from the TWRP manager app (It gives me an error with every single version that's available. The error message is "Something went wrong. Flashing recovery was unsuccessful. Either you already have this recovery installed or another error has occured. Would you like to attempt rebooting to recovery now?" Pressing the button reboot now doesn't do anything.

Wtf do I do?
