No more recovery/Can't flash new one - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well i wanted to flash the Amon_RA 2.0.1 and that went wrong. After that i can't go in recovery and I can't flash a now one.
If some one can help me.
Thank you

How did you try to flash it? and Why can't you flash a new one? some info please!!
But when changing recovery on desire, there are 2 possibilities:
1. if your phone is s-on, you should use unrevoked like when you installed clockwork mod at first.
2. if your phone is s-off, you should use fastboot commands(boot into fastboot and run "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" recovery.img being the img file containing the recovery)

I did it with unrevoked.
I have S-off but i can't make the flash work with the fastboot.

ok nvm. it works again but i can't make fastboot to work
any how thank you!

[Q] Need Help with Recovery!!

I have succesfully root my girlfriends slide and gained s-off thru Aplha . but i tried to flash cwm 2.5 thru fastboot like an idiot thinking this was the proper way of permanently flashing new recovery and now cannot get into recovery neither factory with triangle or cwm. How do i fix this or will i have to unroot bascially and start over to get the recovery .img again? Also, who can help with permanently flashing cw recovery so that i do not have to use the update.zip method.?

Did you try to fastboot flash the update.zip? That's not good, you should've flashed the cw2.5 .img file. No, you don't have to reroot or res-off, but download the .img file for the latest clockwork recovery on koush's website, for our device. Then, on your computer, while in fastboot mode and plugged into usb, type
fastboot flash recovery filename.img
obviously replacing filename.img with the actual file name/location.

[Q] Unable to go into Recovery.

This is what I did before I have this problem with my 1X.
1. Unlocked using htcdev.com
2. Installed CWM from here.
3. SuperWipe.
4. I went back to Hboot after SuperWipe instead of flashing rom.
5. I went back to recovery but my phone will shut down right after HTC logo and reboot by itself and it will just stuck there.
Could anyone help me please? What did I do wrong?

You didn't flash another ROM after the Super Wipe that's what!!
You'll need to flash your RUU to go back to stock and start again
Ok I will help you out but you need to be more careful.
Also I would recommend against using superwipe right now.
That's my personal opinion....
get into fastboot
Connect USB
from your pc in fastboot directory type:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot bootloader
now get into recovery and flash the Rom..
thank you.
I was scared and did factory reset from hboot. flashed CWM again and I can go into recovery mode now but obviously there's no rom to flash in my phone now.
downloaded Asia WWE RUU. it can't find my phone after the part when I turned on the phone to connect to pc because it's stuck in htc logo?
I'm in trouble now.
1. Boot into HBOOT, then select FASTBOOT from the menu.
2. Use the fastboot commands to flash the stock recovery (get it from the CWM thread)
3. Use the fastboot commands to relock the bootloader
4. Flash the RUU for your phone
Should get you back to stock
1) Flash stock recovery:
Grab it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579797
Then Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command (assuming that the offical recovery is named recovery.img): fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2) Relock Bootloader:
Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command: fastboot oem lock
3) Find and run/flash the RUU for your device, find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604

[Q] Problem with booting

Hi, here is the situation. I got one half-broken Desire.
Fully formatted, s-off,cwm 5.0.2.0 with broken volume up and down keys.
So, when I get into the bootloader I can't get into the recovery to flash zip.
Anyone has some rooted image with boot.img, system.img data.img so I can flash it via fastboot?
Thanks.
You can flash .zip ROM through fastboot : http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...id#Android_Flashing_Guide_.28with_fastboot.29
I think you can also flash rom from Rom Manager

Thanks didn't know that... But pretty much useless since community roms don't contain android-info.txt file and some other related stuff.
However, I've figured out that after flashing boot.img via fastboot, it shows itself up in adb devices command so I managed to get into recovery by adb reboot recovery and flashed.

[Q] Booting strait to custom recovery *Help*

Hey guys, I think i screwed up big time. I have just received my Htc one M8 from rogers (with no bloatware on it .. weird lol ) And i wanted to root it in order to use titanium back up.
So i followed a guide to root the phone everything went well execpt that now my phone boots straight into philz custom recovery....
When i was entering the fastboot commands to flash the recovery to the phone i made a mistake i wrote :
fastboot flash boot recovery.img
instead of
fastboot flash boot recovery recovery.img
....
So my guess is that i have overwritten the boot.img of the phone with the custom recovery which is bad... now i can't use the phone...
Is there a way to flash the stock boot image back? of to restore the phone like it was brand new?
Thanks for you help
Reflash the both with the correct commands !!!
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yeah this is what i wanted to do but i couldn't find a boot.img. I did find it eventually. here it is in case anyone needs it
Straight, just saying.
The boot.img is always in the rom....Most roms contain the stock boot.img. or check my backup collection and download the stock rom. It has the stock boot.img inside
Thanks a lot.
