After flashing the latest ICJ 2.5.1 I suddenly cannot boot to recovery. I've never had this problem before. The rom itself works good, so does the bootloader. Though everytime I try to boot into recovery it flashes the CWM- or TWRP-screen for a short while and then just reboots itself.
I've obviously tried to flash both CWM and TWRP but the results are the same. The flashing seems to work, but when trying to boot into recovery just makes it reboot iself.
Any ideas?
ICJ 2.5.1
TWRP 2.4.3.0 and 2.4.0.0
CWM 5.8.4.0
hboot 1.39
Thanks in advance.
Try from the bootloader
Fastboot erase cache
Try again to enter

Wow, I can't believe it was this simple. From now on I'll always use the fastboot erase cache, not only when flashing boot.img's.
Thank you for your fast respone, I really do appreciate it!

which one?
where to get?
hope it works
thx
You can find it inside the zip file which you're going to flash.
1. Flash CWM recovery. Enter it.
2. Do a full wipe -> clear cache -> clear dalvik.
3. Flash boot (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
4. Flash the stock recovery.
5. Enter hboot and click fastory reset.
Good luck.
Everything was fine until I flashed CM9. Now I can not boot into recovery.
Recovery loads and I can see it for a moment and then phone reboots.
Tried CWM and TWRP, tried boot into recovery from CM9 reboot menu - same there.
Any suggestion?
PS. Downloading 401.9 RUU now...
Try "fastboot erase cache" after flash the recovery.

Thanks, man! That works.
That's strange because I already erased cache before flashing CM9...
After a long string of flashing failures with this device, I'm needing to update the recovery.
Unfortunately after it let me downgrade the recovery, no matter what recovery I flash (CWM latest or TWM) for the HTC One X, the god damn older version is still there.
I've tried updating it through One X One Click and CWM itself. But I have no idea what's going wrong or what's needed to be done.
[Edit]
Okay, it seemed to install with no errors this time.
Now I just have to figure out why the heck it always displays "HTC quietly brilliant" forever.

so, which recovery did you install? which rom are you trying to install?
Recovery. Img is to be flashed through fastboot and not in recovery itself
Go in your fastboot folder
Open cmd there and give commands
Fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
Fastboot erase cache
And you're good to go :thumbup:

Hello,
I have the same problem;
I was on recovery CMW 6.0.4.4. I tried to update to 6.0.4.5 or philz. Fastboot says okay after install, but when I restart to recovery, recovery is still 6.0.4.4.
What I haven't done is erase cache. Could this be it? Cannot try for the moment because I'm at work.
Thanks

yes, it might be... try to flash again recovery and to erase cache after OKAY message...
I tried it again with fastboot and than erase cache : doesn't work
Than I copied the recovery zip file to sdcard and installed it through clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.4. Everything installed ok but when I reboot recovery it is still 6.0.4.4?
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
The zip is of no use, the recovery.img has to be flashed via fastboot (s-on devices have no other choice) try to flash a different recovery to check that works. Maybe the recovery is a bad download
I've found the solution.
It was a problem with my fastboot extension.
Thanks anyway
I successfully flashed cyanogenmod 11x last night. I followed the steps and everything works great! The phone boots fine, all features work ok. I had a slight issue of it hanging on the CM logo, but I powered down, booted to hboot > factory reset, and it booted up fine the second time.
Strangely, I don't seem to be able to get into recovery any more? if I go into hboot > recovery it just boots CM. I tried flashing the recovery again using fastboot, as I did when first installing CM, but it still doesn't work. Next I installed Rom Manager, installed the latest CWM, and rebooting into it from there - Still doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
I had the same problem i was flashing the boot.img in the recovery partition. Fastboot flash recovery [recovery.img]

Did fastboot flash succeeded or failed with an error?
To boot a recovery image try "fastboot boot recovery.img". This only boots the recovery.img , not flashing anything. Perhaps it temporarily helps.
