TWRP 2.6.3.3 Problems - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Has anyone successfully installed TWRP 2.6.3.3 (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7) on your HTC One? I have tried all three methods on installing it and I can't seem to get it to stick on my phone.
Method one: Goo.im app
From the menu, selecting Install OpenRecoveryScript and selecting Yes results in No recoveries were found for your device.
Method two: ADB / Terminal
Opened up an ADB shell and used dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p34 which successfully installed it. Rebooting to recovery goes to the HTC screen that says Entering recovery and then reboots the device for a normal startup.
Method three: Fastboot
Booting into the bootloader and selecting the fastboot option in order to run fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img successfully installed. Rebooting to recovery goes to the HTC screen that says Entering recovery and then reboots the device for a normal startup.
Holding volume down + power and selecting Recovery from the bootloader also reboots to the HTC screen that says Entering recovery and then reboots the device for a normal startup.
No idea how to get this installation to stick. Can anyone help out?

the twrp for m7 doesn't work.
the twrp for m7vzw is the one you need.

I used Flashify from the Play Store and it worked perfectly. The recovery held and was able to flash CM11. My fastboot has been screwed ever since I upgraded to Win8.1 so Ive been using that app as an alternative.
EDIT- Using the correct one as the previous post alluded to would also be a great idea. I didn't even catch that.

Can't Flash TWRP after installing MaximusHD
So I am a noob at this stuff and successfully flashed TWRP 2.6.3.3. I installed the MaxHD ROM shortly after following all instructions that I could find. I ran into bootloop and had to revert to an old firmware then flashed the current firmware and viola MaxHD booted right up. However, now I can not flash TWRP back as my recovery. Everytime I flash it and go into recovery it goes into MaxHD ROM. If anyone has any ideas they are much appreciated.
Also, I have read for over three weeks on these boards before posting even my first post so I have tried to research the problem if anyone was wondering that.

Is MaxHD a Verizon rom? That could be an issue if it's not. Also, the latest TWRP is 2.7.0.8. Haven't had any issues with it. Are you flashing it with fastboot commands? You might try the app Flashify.

Good call...it is not for the Verizon HTC One. Thanks much.
It doesn't say it's not in the write up about the ROM...I had to dig into the replies to see if anyone else asked.

[Q] S-Off Recovery problem

Hello! Hi, I'm kinda new to all of this, and I downloaded all of this today. I've been reading a lot and watching a lot of videos, yet I nothing really seems to fix my devices problem.
I have a HTC One on the Verizon carrier and I have just recently S-Off'd it using Rumrunner (I used the Rom checker to make sure it was unlocked and it even says it is whenever i enter bootloader). Although I was successfully able to unlock my device, I seem to have trouble with entering into recovery mode. Whenever I try to go into Recovery mode, my device reads "Entering Recovery mode" in pink at the top for about 10-20 seconds. Then all of a sudden it just goes black and it reboots as if I had never even chosen to go into recovery mode. I don't know if this holds any significance, but I've noticed that my boot up logo only has "HTC ONE" on it, the writing "simply beautiful" is now removed.
I have tried using cmd and ADB to clear the cache, I've tried using ClockManager from Rom Manager, and I've tried multiple times on regular mode. None of them really seem to work and I don't really understand why. Can anyone please offer me some suggestions? Thank you.
Seriously I only want a transparent theme for my HTC One that's all LOL
@Cinestra hey so I'm also kind of new to this but I can try to help. So what custom recovery did you flash?

Hello, thank you i very much appreciate your advice. I did not try flashing yet.
I just tried to flash TWRP by using Fastboot and the CMD. However I still get no luck. I entered everything in the command prompt fine and it responded nicely. However, whenever I try to go to Recovery mode, the screen just says "entering recovery mode...." and then just turns black 15 seconds later and reboots again :S

I had the same problem and discovered that when i enter stock recovery, when the black screen appears, i had to press power+vol up to get it to show up. You may have to press them several times to get the timing right. Hope that helps!

when I got my phone back from sonic, twrp wouldn't install for me so I had to use CWM.
OP should probably try both and make sure he's following the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45513789&postcount=2
I'm quite new to rooting as well. Seems we are having the same problem. I was able to get beaups' s-off exploit to work without any problems. When I load into HBoot it says the phone is unlocked and I've also used a Root Checker to determine the phone is rooted.
My next step was to try and install TWRP using fastboot. I ran a command prompt window using administrator rights during the whole process. Everything seemed to install just as it should. The problem is when I try to boot into recovery I'm having the same problem as Cinestra. I simply get the HTC logo screen with "Entering Recovery..." in pink letters at the top of the screen for around 15 seconds, then it reboots as if it would normally and restart the phone as usual. I have tried to reinstall the custom recovery step by step, using 'fastboot erase cache' before and after as well as using an older version of TWRP just in case that would help. Again, everything seems to install just fine but I still can not boot into recovery. I've also tried to see if the GooManager app would be of some help, but that is also not working for me.
I've since also tried flashing CWM but the same situation occurs. Install seems fine but no luck booting into recovery. ROM Manager was a no go as well.
I just can't figure this out. I've tried different cables, deleted and reinstalled HTC drivers/adb/fastboot, and multiple recovery images. I just gave beasleyj62's suggestion of holding down the power/volume down buttons after it goes to black when it starts to restart but that just put me into a bootloop sadly. Had to hold down the power button a few times to get it to boot correctly again. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
I would also just like to add a little more info on my device in case this will help troubleshoot this. I'm using a Verizon HTC One with Software Number 1.10.605.10.
Same problem here. Tried flashing from fastboot, using goomanager, using rom manager, and from within the terminal emulator (can't find the command now but i think it was on the TWRP site).
Fastboot gives every indication it works, goomanager and rom manager give an error, and the emulator method appeared to work.
Tried to fastboot both TWRP and clockworkmod but neither worked.
At work right now but still investigating...
*edit: goomanager error states 'no recoveries found for your device.'

Didn't realize they weren't supported. Sadly, I don't think they are the culprit here. I tried to flash using fastboot first. I attempted it with 'openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img' first then with the older version 'openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7.img' next. It was the same issue with both. I didn't attempt using GooManager until after I had used fastboot, though GooManager just failed to initialize the install. I mean it didn't even run or change anything as far as I can tell, and simply gave an error back saying "No recoveries were found for your advice".
Did the same thing with CWM and ROM Manager. I installed CWM from fastboot. Only after seeing the same thing happen when I tried to install TWRP did I give ROM Manager a shot. This also just gave an error message without initializing any install. Thanks for the input though.

Yeah...I tried the fastboot method first too, for both TWRP and CWM. I really doubt that is the problem.
Two thoughts:
1. Did you have any issues during the S-OFF? How many pours did it take? My thoughts here are that the S-OFF wasn't, for whatever reason, fully clean, which may suggest that you relock and S-ON your phone, and reapply Rumrunner.
2. Did you flash with the decrypted RUU? I would flash the phone with that (the link is somewhere in this subforum) and then try to flash a recovery image.

1. I think it was 3 or 4 pours. Seemed to work flawlessly.
2. Still trying to learn which includes learning what an ruu is. Maybe that is my problem. I ran rumrunner and then have been trying to flash a recovery ever since...with no other steps.

1. Nope, I had no issues while doing the S-Off. It took 3 pours for me.
2. I haven't used any RUU for this. So you suggest going back to S-On and locked, then using the RUU? Sorry, still new to the whole process so just want to be clear on procedure. Yeah, I've been considering going back to complete stock and starting from scratch again. I'll give that a go later tonight if I can't come up with anything else.
Thanks.
No, no. The only RUU available is a decrypted one, which can only be flashed while S-OFF. So the ideas I put down were distinct, and not steps. My thought is that either (i) you return yourself to full stock and non-root as is explained in a thread in this subforum, or alternatively, (ii) flash the RUU to get a fully untouched setup (the RUU contains the factory "rom", bootloader and recovery and will return it to being fresh from the factory) on the device and then flash the recovery.

Hmm alright so you suggest flash this other version of TWRP instead? That would make sense because the link looks like it's specialized for Verizon. I will try that out today!

1. It took me about 3 pours. That is an interesting thought and I think it may very well be valid, but I would prefer not to reset or relock my device though.
2. I have not decrypted RUU yet because I was unfamiliar with the term. I may try this if the new TWRP code does not work
@Prizm432 it looks like you are flashing the wrong Twrp zip. It has to end in m7vzw.zip

Help! Have I screwed up my bootloader?

So in the rush to get CyanogenMod installed on my newly-S-Offed phone, I downloaded CWM from the appstore and started looking through the various devices to flash ClockWorkMod Recovery to. I selected the vanilla HTC One, not the verizon-specific model. I have not yet rebooted my phone yet, but I am worried that doing so will brick the phone since I technically don't have the right bootloader. Looking through CWM's list on my phone, there is not a verizon-specific model bootloader. There is one on Cyanogen's site (can't post the link due to XDA restrictions), but it appears to involve rebooting the phone. How should I go about safely flashing a good bootloader onto my phone?

CWM is a custom recovery, not bootloader. Download your choice of CWM or TWRP, reboot into the bootloader and use Fastboot to flash it.

I am referring to ROM Manager from the android app store. When you bring it up it asks you to flash your bootloader. The bootloader I selected was the one for the Vanilla HTC One.
I don't use ROM Manager, but I just installed it on my phone. The prompts all refer to recovery, and make no mention of bootloader. See below.

Its most likely referring to the recovery, not the bootloader; Assuming you're root, Rom Manager is there to flash custom ROMS and custom recoveries. I don't think you'll have bricked your phone if you installed a bad recovery, but I think your best bet would be install a compatible one manually.
SO pick a thread and follow the directions under installation:

Well my phone will reboot safely, which is good.
However, rebooting into fastboot or recovery just reboots into normal mode. Recovery will say the first time that it's going into recovery, but will reboot again and go into normal.
Thoughts?
Success! I just had to keep scrolling. there was a version in Rom Manager, all the way down at the bottom under "m7vzw." Flashing that did the trick.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers.

The S-Off exploit removes stock recovery, so it will go nowhere until you flash CWM or TWRP. Fastboot will work regardless.

All that said, I can now boot into recovery no problem, but typing "adb reboot fastboot" just reboots the phone normally. Any idea why that might be?
I've never used that command personally. I have Quick Boot (Reboot) from the market and use it for getting into recovery and fastboot from Android.

Do you have fastboot unchecked under power settings? Phone doesn't totally reboot with that checked.

adb reboot recovery = takes you to recovery
adb reboot bootloader = takes you to fastboot/booloader
I don't believe adb reboot fastboot is a command, so it just does adb reboot

Can't flash a recovery ROM to HTC One Verizon

I might be doing something wrong but I can't flash any recovery ROMs to my HTC One. I used rumrunner S-off today and gained root access with my stock ROM. I tried using command prompt to flash a TWRP recovery ROM, and it only worked once but now whenever I try to do it it says either "cannot load image" or gives me a partition error.
I tried going into recovery with the one I flashed and when it says entering recovery mode it either goes into a continuous reboot cycle or proceeds to the lockscreen. I tried using flashify today too and it says my device isn't compatible with any of the recovery ROMs.
Please help, I'm so frustrated and all I want to do is flash Android Revolution to my HTC! Also, was I supposed to factory reset my phone before all this? Because I still have all my apps, photos, data, etc.
P.S. I'm a noob at this stuff so I might be doing something wrong.
Try Flashify from the play store. Put the recovery on the Flashify app and flash if.

Got the recovery from ClockWork Mod - It is Verizon HTC One version
Thank you guys for your concern but I figured it all out. I used an all-in-one toolkit and it flashed my recovery without a problem. Now I have a Nandroid backup for stock rooted ROM, and flashed BoneStock onto my device! It is all working great and my battery life rocks!

OK first off make sure the recovery you are trying to flash ends in m7vzw.img second, Flashify doesn't work for everyone so you might have to do it from adb on your computer. And finally, there is no android revolution rom for the Verizon htc one.
The developer of Flashify has a thread in Android developing and hacking/ apps and games / Flashify. Sometimes these threads have updates posted before the play store does. Start at the back of the thread and read toward the beginning,find the latest info faster (about a 25 page thread).

You should try to do these things without using all-in-one kits. It's best to know what was done in case something goes wrong in the future. My guess is you were most likely trying to flash the wrong recovery.
Well, at least you're up and running!

Thank you for the tip, I will remember that the next time I flash a recovery to something. It was the correct recovery, but for some reason the fastboot and adb wouldn't flash it. Maybe I just needed a reboot of pc or something...
Had the same issue after s-off with twrp. Ended up flashing cwm touch instead and it works just as well. Although I do miss twrp.

[Q] HTC One M8 GPE won't boot to custom recovery

Hi all-
I just received my HTC One M8 Google Play Edition today. I successfully unlocked the bootloader (I see the open padlock every time it boots), but I'm running into trouble with TWRP. I downloaded TWRP 2.7.0.3 from this thread. Since I'd like to get OTA updates in the future, I am attempting to boot (not flash!) TWRP using
Code:
$ ./adb reboot bootloader
$ ./fastboot boot ~/Downloads/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.3-m8_ul_ca.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.251s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.001s]
finished. total time: 1.252s
$
but after the second command, the phone just reboots to the normal system. I have attempted renaming TWRP to recovery.img, but that didn't change the behavior. I have tried a factory reset, and that didn't change the behavior. If I attempt to manually enter recovery from HBoot, I get the dead android logo.
I really just want to flash SuperSU.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Stephen
TWRP doesn't work on GPe for some reason. Use Philz CWM.

I wondered about that, but for some reason I didn't find the Philz m8 thread until you mentioned it. So I downloaded CWM from this thread and had the exact same experience...
Other thoughts?
Thanks!
Stephen
A little concerned that I wasn't able to boot either TWRP or CWM, and (while I don't think I'd flashed anything) just going into HBoot and selecting recovery also didn't work (dead Android icon), I grabbed the 4.4.2 firmware from here and flashed the stock recovery.
After flashing the stock recovery I had the *TAMPERED* label in HBoot (which surprised me a little because I assumed stock would 100% match what was already there). Now if I selected Recovery from HBoot I would get a temporary flash of "This image is for development use only (etc.)..." and then end up back in HBoot. I tried once or twice more to just boot CWM and still no luck. So finally I flashed CWM, installed SuperSU, and then flashed back to stock. I guess I'll find out when the first OTA rolls around if the system is still "stock" enough.
Thanks,
Stephen

I might be wrong, but isn't the command "fastboot boot recovery recovery.img" whereas "recovery.img" would be the path to the recovery you want to boot to without flashing? If I'm not mistaken, "fastboot boot" would boot the phone up to the system.

When I did it with my wife's Nexus 5, it was "fastboot boot <image>" (and there it worked without a hitch). In the middle of other things last night I did try that and got "no such file: recovery". So I'm still open to user error, but at least that particular change didn't fix my problem...

Thus may be a dumb question but how do we root the gpe edition. I tried with weak sauce but it failed. Thanks

Fastboot boot stopped working on One m7 since 3.x. I'm assuming they continued the trend..

Unfortunately non of the recoveries available will "boot" into recovery. Philz works if you flash the recovery. I would say flash philz recovery and then flash back the stock GPE recovery I posted in Dev

Yep, found out I was wrong when I went to do it myself. After some research, it seems the code used to include the extra "recovery", but no longer does.

fastboot boot didn't work on the m7. It works on the m8 I have tested it and I used an unreleased recovery to boot the recovery to pull the stock recovery from the GPE. You can boot the recoveries on sense based roms but for the GPE edition one the ones for Sense aren't booting. the dt.img's are different between the two devices.

Since booting rather than flashing is my preferred workflow, do you know if the "unreleased recovery" you used is planned to be released? I've already flashed Philz and flashed back, but for future use it would be convenient.
Thanks,
Stephen
Just had the same problem like yours but the latest CWM 6.0.4.8 works for me.
I got touch CWM from here
The superuser.zip file from here
Both are made by clockworkmod
Commands
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-m8.img
Once I got in the temporary CWM recovery, I backed up the entire system to sdcard. I pulled out the stock recovery image file (24MB in size) in case I need it for OTA in the future.
Then flash the superuser.zip and reboot back to the vanilla android. Stock recovery and everything else was untouched and we got rooted.

After the 4.4.4 OTA update, I was also able to boot (not flash) Philz recovery to reroot my phone.
Long version in case it's helpful to someone else in the future: I think either my phone shipped with corrupt firmware or I somehow corrupted it while unlocking the bootloader originally, and then I made matters worse by flashing back to a "stock" firmware that didn't exactly match the shipped M8 GPE recovery. Turned out that with that bad "stock" firmware the 4.4.3 OTA failed to apply, so to make the 4.4.3 OTA work I had to flash the 1.16.1700.16 firmware from this thread. After the 4.4.3 update ./fastboot boot <custom-recovery> still didn't work, so I did the flash custom/root/flash stock cycle. Then a week later the 4.4.4 update rolled through without incident, and suddenly ./fastboot boot <custom-recovery> worked fine.
Thanks,
Stephen

Recovery Boots to Black Screen

So I clean flashed the newest community edition of Oxygen. Directly after I flashed it I flashed SuperSU. Everything goes well, no big error messages (I edited the updater-script for Oxygen). So I boot into Oxygen, and I can't find root. Everything is working beautifully but there's just no SuperSU. So I reboot to recovery, about to flash the zip again, but I get a black screen. Doesn't go away until I hold the power button for 15 seconds. Rebooted to fastboot, flashed TWRP recovery image. Same result, black screen when booting into recovery. Is there something I'm doing wrong? It's usable but I'd really like root....

If your bootloader is unlocked and you can access the bootloader insteead of recovery just get fastboot working on your computer and you should be able to flash the TWRP listed above.

Fastboot not working on my office laptop. Funnily, it used to work earlier. Could someone help me with that? Or I will flash it over the weekend when i am home and revert to complete stock. The Community Build did not seem very attractive or useful in the few days I tried.

Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
Then just install drivers for your phone or do a search and you'll find it for the OnePlus 3
Worked For me too!

Sorry for reviving this thread, but I managed to solve my problem with this solution. however after a while, because of some problems I booted into recovery, and after seeing the TWRP logo the phone goes black and I can't do anything. I believe I might have killed my phone, but does anyone have some idea?

Plz check some of my older posts. I posted a stock recovery Link. Use that and you'll be able to boot just fine.
