Hi there,
I just tried to flash a newer version of TWRP (to be able to write NAND backups on exFAT formatted external SD cards) but after that I could not boot the system. I had to flash a system rom again and restore from titanium backup.
After that - for whatever reason - I had the old version of TWRP recovery installed again..
So, is there any way to update TWRP without getting the same problem again?
Thanks in advance and best,
Julian
Can't you update recovery by using the goo manager app?

Nope, it just says "recovery has been installed" - but nothing happened :-/
just do fastboot flash recovery openrecoveryXXXXX.img ? everything should be the same but your recovery should be updated
einfach mit fastboot flashen dein rom bleibt unangetastet.
You could try TWRP Manager
Well, I'm not quite sure what I did (or did wrong) in the first place - but it works.
fastboot flash recovery did the trick.. now.
Thank you guys!
Best,
Julian
I've tried to flash TWRP latest for the M8 via terminal using the command which is shown on the TWRP website but it gives me an error message saying read protected or something, my bootloader is unlocked but I'm trying to flash TWRP and root, I don't use PC /Laptop so using terminal on my phone the only way unless I go to Internet cafe, anyone successfully flashed TWRP via terminal?

I can't seem to boot into clockworkmod recovery (because I want to make a new backup). BUT now I can only go into hboot and that's it
Oh,and here are my details:
Rom:Cyanogenmod 7.2
Kernel:stock
P.S I used rom manager to flash cwm 5.0.2.0

Go back to rom manager go to its settings menu and check the erase recovery before flash option. Then reflash cwm thru rom manager.
Sorry but it doesn't work
I erased the recovery pior flash but it's still the same

Are you s-off or is your bootloader unlocked?
I'm s-off. I'll check bootloader

If your s-off put this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/TWRP_2.3.1.0/PB31IMG.zip on your sdcard in no folders, and boot to hboot. It should find the file and prompt you to press vol up to install. It is TWRP recovery. Flash that see if you can access it, if you can access it, either stick with TWRP or flash back to cwm http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/CWM_5.0.2.0/PB31IMG.zip, and see if you can access it then.
ok
ok gonna give it a try
thanks for ALL your help
fixed!
Thank you soo much!
although i have a question,Why did cwm appear instead of twrp?
that's strange.....

You flashed the twrp one and cwm came up? Thats not what i was expecting, but if it fixed it i guess all is well.
EDIT: Lol nevermind, i forgot to add in the link for the twrp one, and just put the one for cwm. So the one you flashed was cwm 5.0.2.0. I edited my previous post amd added the twrp link.
I tried to use fastboot to write a new recovery, but it didn't work. I tried to flash clockwork mod recovery using rom manager. Failed again. I am s-off and rooted. The only way to flash recoveries is using a P31IMG.zip file. Any ideas?

To flash with fastboot you need to unlock your bootloader via htcdev.com
You should be able to flash recovery from the ROM if you have superuser access in the ROM. Does recovery not change or does it take you to the bootloader screen when you try from ROM Manager?

Mine is taking me to the boot loader screen. I have forever s-off. Its unlocked. Tried to switch from scroll cwm recovery to twrp touch. Now I don't think I have a recovery. Should I reflash from computer with cwm or twrp?

I am posting this for my frnd he was trying to unlock bootloader which he successful did but when he tried to reboot after that it stuck in bootloop(htc logo) and later he realized he accidentally clicked on flash kernel from some rootkit and I suppose that's why it's suck in boot then he tried to flash recovery and flash a new Rom but his phone is not detected by the computer
Any suggestion

So my suggestion is: flash a recovery like philz 5.15.9 via fastboot, enter recovery, mount the phone as external mass storage, copy there the zip of a rom, wipe data to install new rom, reboot to bootloader, flash boot.img from the rom via fastboot (erase cache before and after flashing boot.img) then enter recovery flash the rom zip and choose wipe in aroma... Then should be ok... Ask here for further infos

So i have an HTC One X for about 4 months now, ive decided to try cyanogen mod i liked it at the beggining but then i decided stock rom wuld be better, but now i found myself with a huge problem or so to say problems, 1st of all i cant seem to find the right RUU for it
im CID 102
and Main - Ver 4:18:401:4
its really a pain, since i literally cant acess its storage since it haves no ROM now, it haves cwm installed, and ive tryed installing a nandroid backup which worked but the touchscreen is not working.
any solutions? ideas? im completely stuck,
my phone is S-ON RL
and its Unlocked
Did you flash the boot image from the nandroid backup? try that first. Or Put another rom on by connecting phone to pc and mounting the storage from cwm and copying the rom over. And flash the boot image from the rom in fastboot

mounting the storage via cwm wotn work, it wont detect the storage on my pc, and yes i have all the required drivers for the phone installed, so i cant directly copy a custom ROM or even a Stock one thru dat method,and yes ive flashed the boot.img that was contained in the nandroid backup.zip folder
Try another usb port for the cable and wait a few minutes when you plug it in, I have known it sometimes take 3 or 4 minutes to find the storage on some pc's

flashed that recovery, and mounted USB, altho my pc still doesnt detects it, and about the ROM, its the one i was thinking to install too, so i have it downloaded already, alongside with its boot.img, now the big problem is pushing the rom to the phone storage...
How do you mount it exactly, what option do you press in steps ?

well ive managed to mount it, ive managed to pass the zip to my phone, installed the zip, and flashed the boot.img , but now the phone is stuck at the white htc ONE logo ...
You performed a FULL wipe before flashing the rom ? That's needed !!!

I was try to take my phone to as close to stock as possible but didn't have a stock recovery. I was trying to get s-off through sunshine but when i tried to go back to stock i downloaded an ing file from here and installed it using flashify and i am assuming it was the wrong one. Now all i get is the red triangle on start up. How do I flash a recovery using a mac or could some one direct me to a video?
forgot
also i was rooted and unlocked if that makes a difference. I was using twrp and viper one rom.
Get fastboot and adb. Download newest twrp img file. Boot to bootloader and click fastboot. Load terminal on Mac and navigate to directory with fastboot and img.
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Pm me if you need more help.

Seems like you flashed boot and not recovery. You will need to flash another rom
