Edit - Problem was after flashing hboot I could not boot into recovery .... I tried multiple recovery images AmonRa and Cwm but it would never boot.
Solved - I have no idea how, I downloaded the recovery image again with the same link as the previous images, all md5sums were ok, but the 4th download worked and I was able to flash + boot into recovery again? Do I have some other problem though because I don't see why it took so many flashes for me to be able to access recovery again?

Reboot to recovery - stuck on splash??? Using Reflex S...
Edit - After trying to boot to recovery, sat on splash screen for 40 mins and then my bootanimation randomly started... everything is just back to normal?
I can't seem to be able to flash recovery though, it just doesn't boot into it?! I've tried a couple of images and checked md5sum's but it always sticks on splash??
hmm that's strange, suppose you could try to flash a different HBOOT, then try a different recovery - that's what I'd do anyway

I shouldn't of posted really but something that usually take 10 minutes took an hour or two.... I used the exact command everytime and the same files... It just didn't work!? I'm still really confused but happy it's working
I flashed clockworkmod recovery a couple days ago, not knowing that TWRP was out there. I'm trying to flash TWRP but now my phone won't boot into recovery after flashing. I tried erasing the cache and still no luck. Here's how I did it
Code:
#fastboot erase cache
< waiting for device >
erasing 'cache'...

Then when I try to boot into recovery I get the HTC logo with pink text saying it's booting into recovery, it stalls, and then reboots normally. I'm running CM 10.2 and using adb in linux mint.
i had the same problem, i just left clockwork on there, i gave up after flashing it like 30 times. I did all the exact same things as you. Also checked the MD5 and verified what i had was what it was. Just letting you know i had the same problem as you, id love to find a answer myself. BTW you can still flash clockwork back on it to do recoveries.
I've come across more than one person online who has the same problem too but no definative answer.
I wonder what would happen if you wiped the recovery partition in CWM and then tried flashing twrp...
What if you tried the recovery in the thread about taking the update. And then flash twrp...worth a shot.

You're using the wrong image for TWRP on the HTC One. What you want is
"openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7vzw.img".
I had a problem while trying to flash TWRP as well (I got my root and s-off with rumrun) , I'm just going to stick with CM, its much simpler anyway.

Alright guys I have never been able to flash any kernel on this phone at all. It always gets stuck on bouncing dots or sends me back to TWRP, Any suggestions? Here is how I flashed:
My steps to get TWRP + v4 Root + ElementalX v08 kernel all working together.

Noticed root was not working.
Rebooted to TWRP
TWRP installed v4 root.
Rebooted back to OS.
Root + kernel + TWRP all installed and working fine.
Followed these instructions to a T and got everything working minus the kernel but when I flash any kernel I get pushed back to recovery? For some reason I have never been able install a kernel....... Any ideas I have not been able to flash a kernel since I got this phone. Any suggestions as to why or what I could try?
I believe its
Fastboot flash boot_b or boot_a boot.img look in fastboot mode which boot slot you have a or b
So I have been trying to flash the Pixel Factory Image, I have used the most recent SDK Platform Tools and I still can't get past the boot loop. I also have tried to flash the TWRP recovery but I am getting this:

This is the Pixel XL forum. The Pixel forum is here
I am trying to install LOS 18.1 a Nokia 6.1 TA-1043. I have unlocked the phone and put it into download mode. Following the instructions here I then did
$fastboot flash boot lineage-18.1-20220208-recovery-PL2.img
Sending 'boot_b' (36933 KB) OKAY [ 0.958s]
Writing 'boot_b' OKAY [ 0.314s]
Finished. Total time: 1.382s
However, from there I can't get into recovery - the phone hangs at the "androidone" splash screen.
I can boot an unofficial version of TWRP with
Code:
fastboot boot
, so maybe that is the way to go.
However I would be interested in knowing whether any one has succeeded simply by following the official instructions.
