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

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).

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.
Hi
I've been given a One X (he bought an M8) and I thought I'd easily put on KK 4.4.4, but I have hit a brick wall.
It was running ViperX 2.6.0 with Hboot 0.95, and it's S-ON.
Well 4.4.4 needs a Hboot above 1.28, so the flashing failed.
So I did my homework and got the CID (it's HTC-023) to install the firmware so that I could update the Hboot via OTA.
So I installed the boot.img for the HTC-023 firmware and that (of course) was a an error as I didn't have a copy of the boot.img for the ViperX 2.6.0.
Then the firmware was a .rar file and didn't install anyrate.
So now it's in bootloop.
I have not been able to find a copy of ViperX 2.6.0 to extract the required boot.img
I've got TWRP with Sideloader installed, and ADB works fine.
So I am stuck (like my One X really) so any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Solution
I thought I should post the solution.
The essential problem was to get a Hboot 1.28 or higher so that a new version of Cyanogenmod could be installed.
On this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376&page=189 is the following from ClydeB1
To flash you need to run the following commands: (It is advised to take a backup of your data and important files on your sd card)
1. Lock bootloader - fastboot oem lock
2. Boot to RUU mode - fastboot oem rebootRUU
3. Flash firmware - fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (if you get an error then rerun this command)
Note: The firmware will flash the new hboot, as well as a new stock boot.img and stock recovery.img.
To flash a custom rom you then need to do the following:
4. Unlock bootloader - fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin (you can use the same unlock_code file as you used previously, check your emails if you can't find it, or else reapply at htcdev.com)
5. Flash custom recovery - fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryfile.img
Note: If the unlock process wiped your sd card you may need to boot to recovery and mount usb storage to copy the rom file across again. If your phone won't boot into recovery then run command - fastboot erase cache and try again.
If you then wish to flash a JB custom rom:
6. Flash new boot.img from rom - fastboot flash boot boot.img
7. For good measure - fastboot erase cache
8. Boot to recovery and flash rom
I followed these steps exactly and it worked perfectly. I did need to use CWM as with TWRP the touch screen did not work.
and have more ease way to do this. You are with too low HBOOT and you can run RUU and then update the phone to latest JB because are you know witch HBoot you install to your phone
does fastboot need to be enabled or disabled on phone before fastboot mode to flash a recovery?

Hi there,
I have a rooted HTC one M8 in Australia and I'm trying to flash stock recovery with fastboot in command centre. I'm having a problem because it keeps failing to flash the recovery as its more than 18mb and the command centre says "target reported max download size of 1830477824"
Is there a way to make the max file size bigger? so i can flash stock recovery, update the phone and then flash TWRP again?
Im a beginner so even just a little help would be amazing! THANKS SO MUCH!
What command are you typing?
I'm going to guess they're trying to flash it in RUU mode

First they said to open the folder 'fast boot'
right click in folder whilst holding shift and click open command window here
then type 'adb reboot bootloader'
then after its in boot mode i typed in 'fastboot flash recovery "stock recovery.img"
after that it starts trying to send to my phone but then says that max file transfer is 18mb and this stock recovery is 24mb.
Rename stock recovery.img to recovery.img
then use command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
