I guess your first option should be to flash the RECOVERY again through fastboot and also erase cache. Then try to get into recovery again. Maybe you can also try the app called "quickboot" from the market and try to get to recovery from there.
So first go to fastboot and
1) fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery".img
2) fastboot erase cache
and then WITHOUT booting the rom try to get to recovery through bootloader

cannot access recovery on DHD

hey everyone, i have an sim free desire HD that was rooted and s-off and has been running like that for a while. recently i tried to access clockwork mod to try and flash a new rom but when i did so the recovery does not load. Its just stuck on the htc splash screen, it doesnt even say quietly brilliant. The phone still works but i cannot access recovery. I tried the following procedure in fastboot to re flash the recovery
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recoveryCWM.img
fastboot reboot
after doing this it still has not worked. Any suggestions or a certain fix would be brilliant.
Thanks
You can put the PD98IMG.zip from my downgrade post to your SD card and reboot to bootloader, it will flash you the 1.32 stock ROM and you can start from a clean table.
use an older version of recovery

I had the same problem, with clockwork 3.0.0.6 ... I then flashed 3.0.0.5 (see the bottom of the Rom manager Menu that proposes you to use former recovery roms). I could solve my problem that way.

Issue with flashing roms with s-on

I've HTC dev bootloader unlocked desire hd with custom recovery. I've tried flashing boot.img (from rom.zip) in fastboot before and after flashing rom in recovery mode. The phone gets past htc logo screen and then goes blank with back light on and stays there forever. I've tried 4 different roms. The only rom I was able to flash was CM7.
The phone is currently at h-boot 2.00.0029, is this why I can't flash new roms?
Any help is really appreciated

Update your recovery.img to either of following;either one is good. But make backup of any rom you're on so that you may revert it back in future.
-TWRP 2.7.1.0
-Philz touch CWM
-4EXT Recovery Touch 1.0.0.6 RC 3
By the way which four roms you've tried? if recovery is up-to-date then phone should boot normally.
I have already tried philz touch and twrp. One thing I noticed was when i did a backup in recovery and tried restoring it and always get a md5 error. The same issue with different recoveries and on multiple tries. So I just flashed system.img and boot.img to get my phone back to stock rom.
Thanks

Strange....
Well unmark md5 check on restore. And clear cache/dalvic before rebooting it,Let's see how it goes.Also want to know which perticular rom you've tried so far where you were facing this issue. Also did you format devlog partition before installing CM11 nigthlies 20140618 onwards? If not then try doing so and let me know where you gets stuck?
I'm also S-ON where most other already made S-OFF so feel free to ask me. I'll help as much as i know :good:
Still no luck, it basically does the same thing for all roms. HTC logo shows up and then the screen goes blank with black light on. I've tried these roms:
cm-11-20140710-UNOFFICIAL-M8.1-ace.zip
ICESenseV1.1.zip
cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-ace.zip
MK44.4-ace-140719-RELEASE.zip
AoCP6_UW1_Port_for_Ace
I don't get any errors during the flashing process for all except the last one (AoCP6).
Also, the cm7 works sometimes and on other occasions it does the same thing as well. Could it be the sequence? I do a wipe, flash rom and then boot.img? Also, I've a broken volume button, so I flash the rom in recovery and then I do "adb reboot bootloader" and then flash boot.img, could this be causing this issue?
If it's not too much trouble could you upload system.img and boot.img backup from your phone of any custom rom? I would like to flash those from fastboot.
Thanks

Except Mokee 4.4.4 Release and CM11 M8.1 i used Philz but before that i was on CWM 5.8.1.5 and i had no issues with it. Also i've tried TWRP 2.7.1.0 too. Works perfect but i'm used to reboot into recovery by default option,which only available in CWM. Other recoveries boots into blank screen,If you powered off the device and put on charge.
Nope there isn't any sequence.... either you flash boot.img first or last it only helps in device to boot and have proper connectivity. Even if you don't flash boot.img then only your device should hang on bootloop or boots but no wifi reception. So these is something different.
Sure i can provide system.img and boot.img of M8.1 which i'm currently on. But how sure you're that it will work? I mean do you have a backup of it? Or fresh install. Also wanted to know have you ever tried format devlog partition and FULL WIPE your device?
Try using following attachments. FULL WIPE it's just an alternative of manual wipes,works with every recovery out there. And devlog partition will be formatted if any means of corrupted or remnant leftover using format_devlog zip. Meanwhile provide me details whether you got backup of M8.1 CM11 or going to flash fresh install. So that i can provide boot and system.img of it.
It's working now. Installed 4ext recovery and ran you'r script.
Thanks for all the help

Can't get into recovery

I installed CM 11 on my Xiaomi redmi 1s,everything was working fine except for 2 or 3 little things but a major problem occurred when I thought of flashing another ROM and now I CANT ACCESS RECOVERY MODE no matter what I try. I tried the button combination(power switch+volume up), tried adb and even tried apps like ROM Manager and, TWRP Manager and quick boot but haven't found any luck. Whenever I try to boot into recovery the phone gets stuck on the MI boot logo. I need to flash another rom and can't seem to find any other way to wipe y phone data, cache and dalvik cache and so I need help to counter this issue.
Please help me.

Flash any custom recovery via fastboot mode
Download .img format of custom recovery
Boot into fastboot mode n run this command on CMD
fastboot flash recovery <filename>.img
Filename can be anything depending on name of image file you download
Not Working for me

I am afraid this solution doesn't work for me. My thoughts are that I have somehow lost my recovery partition. I accidently installed CM 11 without first installing a custom recovery. My bad! but have yet to find a solution that works.
Try flashing a recovery using Rashr-flashtool
And boot to recovery (Vol up + Power , for 10s even after screen is on )
Solved

I solved my problem by using Flashify app but I had to use it every time as recovery would not stick. I flashed trwp and installed stock (english version) rom and stock recovery and everything is working fine again. I will not make the same mistake again. I have since installed CWM recovery through stock recovery so now I can flash roms in peace again.

What are you trying to do in the first place?
If you're going to flash a custom rom, place the rom in your SD card or internal storage, do a full wipe and install the rom.
If you're returning to stock for OTA, restore your nandroid backup (system, kernel etc) after which flash your stock recovery and do a reset from settings than search for OTA.
If you can't boot into recovery, flash the latest TWRP on your phone through fastboot. Use the commands: fastboot flash boot boot.img

It had a custom recovery on it Team win recovery project......which was stopping the software from updating.
So tried to put the stock recovery back on it.
At the moment I don't think its corresponding properly with my laptop......in the fastboot menu it does come up "fastboot usb" Drivers are installed too
But when trying to send it commands via command prompt it keeps saying device not found.
I'm wondering if it has deleted to operating system , as on the fastboot menu next to " OS - it says nothing "
Sorry for being brief....this is the first time i've ever come across all this stuff

Boot loop issue

Hey guys, I just recently got some parts for my old One X to start playing with it again (bored with ios). I was running an older version of ViperXL and wanted to get lollipop so my goal was to put CM12.0 on my phone. My recovery was twrp but a version that was older so I had to update it. The in app update wasn't working so I updated cwm instead. When I did this I tried to boot to recovery and it would attempt to go to recovery but then boot back to the os.
Then I was trying to flash the recovery using fastboot which resulted in the same problem. Somewhere in there I flash the recovery.img as my boot image (sudo fastboot flash boot recovery.img) This made my phone repeatedly try to boot into recovery. I tried flashing new ViperXL boot.img as well as a couple others but none let me get into my os again. Now it is just a bootloop trying to start my phone up.
When I try flashing a .zip I get the error 'FAILED (remote: not allowed)'. Flashing recovery and boot images work though.
I've tried a lot and done a lot of searching but nothing can get me into recovery or even out of any sort of bootloop.
I'm using Ubuntu and my phone is S-On if that means anything.
Thanks!
Try restoring any backups of old roms from the recovery. Make sure Recovery is written properly in recovery partition. If this works fine , the appropriate boot.img shud be automatically flashed , i guess.
If u dont have a backup , try finding another one x user using a custom recovery, create a backup from his mobile and copy it to ur sd card by mounting it thru recovery and restore it.
If it doesnt work , wipe all the partitions - System , cache, boot and recovery.. then try flashing a Recovery and then a Boot.img and a rom.
I havent faced such a situation. Just my suggestions as no experts have responded.
Cheers if u have already sorted it out !!!
