[Q] Problems with recovery - HTC One X

Hi, i bought a One X 2 days ago and i unlocked the bootloader, i have 4.2.2 jellybean, i need to root my phone so i downloaded the X One All In One Tool Kit 2.5 and i installed the recovery (TWRP) but when i boot into recovery it just stays in a black screen all the time, it won't pass that, i have to reboot it to get into the system again, i tried installing the CWM but it's the exact same thing, black screen, i won't even appear the CWM logo or the TWRP logo, it just stays in black all along.... i try erasing the cache and nothing, i installed the recovery like 10 times now and it won't work... Why is this? I did everything like the tutorial, i also try directly with the cmd and it's the exact same thing... I really need to root my phone.
Thanks in advance for the help

its clearly not a problem with the Recovery, But i can suggest you something is try flashing it manually. tell me if you are able to do it. you can find how to flash a recovery manually by Command prompt in many Threads.

Custom ROM won't boot

Hey!
I decided to install a new custom ROM. I went from Revolution HD and tried Viper v2.0, after installing it, my phone has been refusing to boot. (I used Revolution HD Super wipe before installing Viper v2.0) It freezes at "htc quietly brilliant" and stays there and doesnt do anything. Ive jumped into bootloader several times, first i tried the obvious and start Recovery. But everytime I press recovery i can see the "Clockwork recoverymode" for about 0.5 seconds, then some sort of loading and then it reboots and goes back to the startup screen and stays there. Ive alos tried the factory reset, but that didnt work either, so now im wondering what to do and im a little worried.
All help is appreciated.
Thanks alot!

did you flash the boot.img for the rom?
also type this command in cmd to get into recovery --> fastboot erase cache

Yes, i flashed the boot.img.
When i type "fastboot erase cache" I only get < waiting for device >
And ye, my phone booted about twice, i got to the lock screen i tried to unlock, then it froze and died.
Have you chosen the fastboot option in the boot loader, plugged in the usb before trying to talk to your phone with fastboot?

This problem happened to me a while back, it causes due to cache getting accumulated, fastboot erase cache got my CMW recovery working again..
i dont know why isnt it working in your case..
And about ROM not booting looks like boot.img problem, i hope u made a nandroid

Cant get back into Clockwork Recovery

Hi. i tried to install maximus new 3.2 rom and after i installed from zip and rebooted my phone, my phone is stuck on the htc logo white screen and keeps rebooting!
i tried to go back to recovery and it doesnt work now! the phone goes into a black screen then reboots again!
try in fastboot mode fastboot erase cache .
you posted in wrong section
Don't forget to reflash kernel modules incase you are using a custom kernel and if you need to reflash the recovery in fastboot make sure your battery isn't below 10% else fastboot won't allow you to flash it.

I have the same problem. The solution is simple: Flash the default recovery then re-flash the clockworkmod recovery again and then try.
You mention which rom you installed and that you flashed the zip file but don't mention that you did a wipe before this (depending on which rom you were previously on) or that you flashed the boot.img file via fastboot first.
PS! There's a section specifically for Q&A and these types of posts should go there are not to be posted in the dev section. Hopefully some kind mod will move it, but I guess you have a few answers by now.

You haven't flashed the boot.img if your phone keeps rebooting.
Also - you've posted this in the wrong section, this is a development section only.

Soz for the delay but this is what i done and it worked. reflashed the recovery from fastboot mode and it worked.
i dont know why some rom and karnals dont boot up properly. a pain really. nearly got worried when maximus lates stable rom messed up my recovery clockworkmod!

TWRP 2.6.3.3 Problems

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.

you should try twrp recovery instead its simply better with more features than cwm
just get the img file from teamwin site and make sure you get the right one then flash it via fastboot

have you tried hitting volume up? I believe if you have no flashable files in stoage older versions of cwm will show a blank screen.

[Q] Clean to install new ROM on Philz recovery. Now I have no OS

I was getting random reboots and I tried to delete everything. I thought "clean to install new ROM" would just do a thorough cleaning.
When I try to boot it stays on the white HTC screen.
I can boot into the recovery and Squabbi's HTC One M8 toolkit reads it.
However, I have no idea what files to flash or even HOW to flash them so I can get an OS back on my phone. Can somebody please help?
edit: i have no ADB experience

Is your device S-off or S-on? You must have at least a little ADB experience since you have a custom recovery which requires an unlocked bootloader, or did you get the phone that way?
I've only tried Philz recovery twice...
BOTH times it bricked my phone. I have four letters for you...T W R P!!!
Good luck by the way
