A quick question. I want to replace my AmonRa recovery with RMD recovery through fastboot. Do I fastboot erase recovery then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img? Or do I just flash the image directly?
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img safer way
There is no problem in deleting the old recovery before you flash a new one.
I thought that it would'nt overwrite the already present recovery if I flashed directly.
Anyways, I flashed RMD successfully (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img).

What are the commands for flashing a rom in fastboot?
Ive tried
Code:
fastboot flash ----.zip
?
Am doing this cause JOKERDROID4.2BUZZ.zip wont flash in clockwork mod 3.2.0.0 or 4.0.0.2. It flashes in 2.5.1.7 but boot loops. I am coming from cm7 what do you think?
You can only flash a particular partition with Fastboot, like /system /data, Recovery, boot etc. AFAIK, You cant flash a Zip ROM as is the case with CWM.
You can check the list of Fastboot Commands here:
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Fastboot
Also, you got 2.5.1.7? Where? AFAIK Wildfire only has 2.5.0.7. Anyway, you can use Fastboot to replace your CWM 3.x or 4.x with 2.5.0.7, then try flashing Jokerdroid. Also, make sure you are performing a wipe (Factory Reset / Wipe data in Clockworkmod)
Where can i get 2.5.0.7?
Cant remember where i got 2.5.1.7 the file name was 2.5.0.7 but cwm said 2.5.1.7?
It's there under Custom Recoveries:

jokerdroid just bootloops!?
i have wiped and wiped cache and delvik!
Try Redownloading the ROM. Or, if you search the thread, there is one version which is clocked at 648MHz. Try that. Probably the high CPU clocks are not suiting your device.
EDIT: Scratch that. Its clocked at 710, so shouldn't cause an issue.
Well after boot looping 5 or so times it rebooted cwm then rebooted system and bootlooped once but the powered up? Wierd!
if you want to flash a .zip package:
fastboot update filename.zip
if you want to flash an img. file:
depending whether you want to flash a new recovery:
fastboot flash recovery filename.img
or a new ROM:
fastboot flash system filename.img
I do however strongly recommend erasing you current recovery before flashing a new one:
fastboot erase recovery
and do a full wipe (this will erase your data, recovery and system partitions)
fastboot erase system -w
Hi there,
I unclocked my phone via htcdev.com and flash recovery-clockwork via fastboot. I installed Rom cook such as LeeDroid and Revolution. At the end, I back to original rom via RUU. When I arranged my SDcard, I deleted folder clockwork. Now, I can't enter recovery mode. When I go to recovery, an icon with phone and curve green arrows appear on monitor (like factory reset) then move to phone and red triagle. I tried to re-unclock and re-flash recovery via cmd but I just received message "cannot flash "recovery ....." on cmd.
Plz give me the way to enter recovery?
Best regards,
Thanks
You lost the CWM recovery after run the RUU.
You need to re-unlock the bootloader and fastboot flash the CWM recovery again.
Make sure you write a right command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_whatever_name.img
not fastboot flash recovery.img

Best way is to flash recovery if the phone is s-off.

Command 'fastboot reboot recovery' do not exists.
Try 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' and then 'fastboot erase cache'.
Then when you reboot to bootloader and choose recovery from the list.
Sent from my HTC Desire using flashes and thunders
use the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
remember that recovery.img is the location+name of the recovery.
I have recently received a new HOX from insurance after I broke the screen of the last one. Unfortunately, while reloading teh current one, something went wrong and it is stuck in a boot loop. I have used a bat to charge it to around 3650mv. CWM is corrupted and attempting to 'fastboot flash recovery cwm.img' shows success but when I try and access it on phone, it fails.
I am attempting to flash CWM 5.8.4.0 for endeavoru.
I did also try and flash the Stock recovery and Interim recovery using HTC One X toolkit. It says it transfers correctly, but fails to access recovery mode.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated please?
try
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
and then flash a new recovery with
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
(you have to name the file .img in recovery.img)
And the command
Fastboot erase cache
Might help too if you can't boot into cwm recovery

I did the follwoing:
fastboot -i 0x2970 erase recovery
fastboot -i 0x2970 flash recovery /Users/xxxx/Desktop/androidtools1/cm-13.0-20160418-SNAPSHOT-ZNH0EAO2NN-crackling-recovery.img
fastboot reboot
all went well- terminal reported ok
then reboot into recovery mode to install the cm13.zip file - failed!
device does not boot into recovery. I get black screen and dead device.
device comes back to life after battery is out and in again.
so no recovery mode menu.
any ideas what to do next?

normally I just do
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <recovery-image-file>
Also how do you attempt to boot recovery?
- VolDn+Pwr ?
- adb reboot recovery ?
What if you flash stock recovery or twrp?
do you actually write <recovery-image-file> ??
I thought the actual .img file needs flashing. ??
either way - VolDn+Pwr and adb. = black screen dead device.
I thought cm-13.img is stock recovery. I downloaded it from cyanogen
twrp needs rooted device. I am trying to instal the OTA update from 12.1 to 13.0 and it doesn't work. and i was advised to un-root my device.
so now i have a un-rooted device but with no recovery.
arrrghhh
