unlocked recovery problem - Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello mates,
i really need your help, i guess.
For understanding:
wildfire with 1&1 branding unlocked via htc dev tool..
now i'm unlocked with S-ON...
Bootloader works...but everytime i choose "recovery" the 1&1 logo comes and never disappears...tried to press every f...button but yeah, lovely 1&1 logo.
i tried to flash cwm 5 via fastboot but the problem is still there...
and yeah, there is no rom on the wildfire...and of course, there is no error when flashing via fastboot.
"
fastboot flash recovery recover
sending 'recovery' (3032 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.900s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.268s]
finished. total time: 2.168s
"
does anyone have a solution for this?
thanks.

[Q] bricked or semi-bricked?

Hello to all!
I root my phone (htc desire z of course) using htcdev.com method. I must say that it was a success. But, after that I wanted to flash a cyanogenmod and the problem occurred.
I installed "room manager" and insert clockworkModRecovery.
I put cyanogenmod.zip into my sdcard and clicked to install mod. Telephone restarted itself and installation moved on. Then telephone restated itself again and stacked on the loading screen.
When I'm at hboot mode it said that I don't have image.
I tried to factory reset phone and clear cache via recovery but when I'm doing so telephone is stacked on the screen with logo of the room manager.
Is solution from this thread gonna work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912399
Thanks for your help and sorry for my English.
Use this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453066

Yep, I did everything from this guide. Only at the end I was so stupid to use room manager instead of flash manually.
But after your post I run this code:
Code:
> fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4096 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.711s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 1.085s]
finished. total time: 1.798s
Now my phone shows me over and over again cyanogen loading screen. What can I do now?
Fastboot -w, then fastboot flash your rom again

[Q] stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen

Hello everyone, I made a mistake (I am a big noob) and I don't know how to fix it.
I wanted to have fresh phone (real factory reset) to back-up and start over, so in recovery mode (interim one from paul) I wiped data, cache partition and I also formated cache,data, sdcard and system.
Now, I am stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen, I have access to hboot, recovery etc. I have been looking for a solution for 2 days without succes, I am sad.
Can someone help please ? thanks guys.
You wiped the system so there is no android on there!
Eirher download a new Rom and flash or relock bootloader and use ruu

The part you did wrong: It's true that you wipe (dalvik) cache and data before flashing a custom rom. That will perform a factory reset. Wiping system means deleting android itself, as stated before. That's what you did wrong.
Now, we can't know why you wanted to start all over again, but assuming you already flashed a custom recovery, you wanted to install a custom rom. Just go ahaed and do so, your problem will be fixed.
thanks, but I can't because this custom recovery doesn't allow me to mount usb and i have no rom on my sd card

That's not actually a problem. I assume you aleady have the android SDK set up, if you don't, please use the search function or google. try the following command while in the platform-tools folder:
adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
or for linux/mac:
sudo ./adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
This will copy the file to the root of your sdcard, so you can flash it. Good luck!
P.S. there's a thanks button, too

That wont work as ADB does not work on any of the custom recoveries at the moment. Im stuck in the same situtation at the mo and as phone is branded cant get the RUU to reflash so just playing the waiting game until either ADB/USB mount available in recovery or S-Off available.

Hello folks, problem solved by following leejames instructions :
flash stock recovery
relock bootloader

I'm so happy. Thanks.
Mee too!! Thanks a lot!! I'm very very very very very very very very very very very very very very happy!!
1 flash stock recovery
2 relock bootloader
3 use ruu
It works fine!!
I do exactly the same thing , but half way through the RUU process it gives me an error saying i need the correct RUU. anyone can help ?
All you have to do is grab an RUU, run it. now on your pc search for %temp%in there locate ROM.zip. Extract the boot.img and system.img. and push them thru fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Code:
adb reboot
i did that , but i get this error:
C:\ADB>fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

Unable to Boot to Recovery with TWRP

I flashed clockworkmod recovery a couple days ago, not knowing that TWRP was out there. I'm trying to flash TWRP but now my phone won't boot into recovery after flashing. I tried erasing the cache and still no luck. Here's how I did it
Code:
#fastboot erase cache
< waiting for device >
erasing 'cache'...
OKAY [ 0.672s]
finished. total time: 0.672s
# fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img
sending 'recovery' (8432 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.116s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.877s]
finished. total time: 1.992s
Then when I try to boot into recovery I get the HTC logo with pink text saying it's booting into recovery, it stalls, and then reboots normally. I'm running CM 10.2 and using adb in linux mint.
i had the same problem, i just left clockwork on there, i gave up after flashing it like 30 times. I did all the exact same things as you. Also checked the MD5 and verified what i had was what it was. Just letting you know i had the same problem as you, id love to find a answer myself. BTW you can still flash clockwork back on it to do recoveries.
I've come across more than one person online who has the same problem too but no definative answer.
I wonder what would happen if you wiped the recovery partition in CWM and then tried flashing twrp...
What if you tried the recovery in the thread about taking the update. And then flash twrp...worth a shot.

You're using the wrong image for TWRP on the HTC One. What you want is
"openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7vzw.img".
I had a problem while trying to flash TWRP as well (I got my root and s-off with rumrun) , I'm just going to stick with CM, its much simpler anyway.

[Q] Bricked ?? Please Please Please Help

Hi
I have tried going back to Sense stock after trying out GPE edition lollipop flavour.
Unfortunately somewhere along the way something has gone horrible wrong and I'm now stuck in a bootloop with a Red Triangle
My bootloader is currently locked, althougth I am S-Off. I can still access fastboot and RUU but the problem is when I try to flash standard or twrp recovery i get the following error message
From RUU
./fastboot flash recovery recov.img
target reported max download size of 1830711296 bytes
sending 'recovery' (16092 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.442s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 1.447s
So I currently have no os, no recovery and no way of loading a recovery back on as you can see above... am I screwed ???
Have now managed to put stock recovery back (via ruu) on and at the top of the screen it says entering recovery but never gets any further ...
Have tried again to install twrp ... no joy there what so ever
Dont' Worry I got the same problem but I fixed it!!

HTC M8S Flashing Custom Recovery Succesful but can not Boot into / Screen stays Black

Hello, i just created an Account.
I have an Problem with my HTC M8S.
I unlocked the Bootloader via HTC Dev-Website. The next step is to flash a custom Recovery. I tried so via Fastboot-Method.
I got the latest version of TWRP-Recovery and flashed it.
The Windows Command showed:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-m8.img
sending 'recovery' (20100 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.106s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 2.583s]
finished. total time: 4.689s
after that, i cleared the cache and rebooted. I flashed it many times but it doesnt seem to be working..
When I press the Recovery option in the Fastboot menu. The HTC Logo appears and then the screen turns black. Also the Fastboot menu doesnt show that the phone is "tampered"
Hope you could understand my Problem and maybe help me.
V.M
twrp-3.1.1-0-m8.img is for HTC M8 only, won't work for your HTC M8S.
Read & search the right one here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/ht...ral/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245
Thanks a lot, it worked!
