boot with STOCK recovery instead of CWM one

hi all i'm trying to flash a radio with the 2nd method as described in this page, but i have some problems....with cwm installed i had always booted (vol down + power) in stock recovery, but now my phone boots always in cmw recovery which doesn't allow me to flash the radio i think. how can i solve this problem? thans to anyone who will try to make me understand....
i forgot:until some hours ago my phone booted in stock recovery (cwm installed weeks ago...) but now only cwm....and i can't understand why

You need radio s off. Follow the guide in the development thread and flash the radio from fastboot.

You say you already have S-OFF, then you also need ENG S-OFF as well to be able to flash a Radio.img.

Please help!

I'm trying to install Miui Rom so i unlocked the bootloader and rooted the device but when i try to install the rom i get this error!
assert failed: getprop ("ro.product.device")=="endeavoru"|| getprop ("ro.build.product") ==endeavoru"
E:error in /sd card/miuiandroid_endeavoru-2.8.31.zip
(Status 7)
and the bigger problem is i restored the backup but the device doesn't work properly! no service! no wi-fi and it keeps turning on & off!
so please help me! i just bought the device :'(​

The error message says you don't have the quad core Tegra3 One X.
If you're sure you have right phone, make sure you have the latest recovery, I think an old version suffered from this problem.

In the bootloader it should say ENDEAVORU not EVITA or anything else.
5.8.4.0 is the oldest CWM you want to be using. 5.8.2.4 is ancient.

If all you want is stock,
1. re-lock your bootloader
2. install a RUU.
what software version is your stock rom?

[Q] My one is dead? RUU

Ok, So being a total a noob that I am, I attempted to get google edition ROM using a tut called How to Convert Any HTC One into a Stock Google Play Edition with Bootloader, Recovery, & OTA Updates. I can't link sorry, not realzing it's only for GSM phones. I just changed the model ID in android-info and didn't think and changed my CID. Tho, when it finished flashing, it stayed at 100%, so I just turned it off and went into bootloader. Then, I went into recovery to fix it, and it just boots into google edition. So, you're thinking WOOOO! Unfortunately, not the case. I was put into a boot loop, so I just turned off my phone, went back into bootloader. The problem is, I can't do anything without a boot loop, besides going into fastboot. I have successfully changed my CID back to VZW__001, but when I try to flash cyanogenmod(what I was using before) it says C:\Users\(My name)\Desktop\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash zip C:\Users\(My Name)\Downlo

Install a custom recovery like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2416431 then
ADB copy the CM ROM to the phone and install it using the custom recovery.
You're obviously s-off and unlocked so whatever you do keep it that way. There are decrypted RUUs that you can use in the forums if you need to get back to a working state and then you can go from there.
EDIT: You said you were using CM before. I'm not sure if you lost your recovery using that tutorial. If you reinstall your custom recovery (TWRP or CWM), that's where you want to reinstall CM from.

Skrewy Rom?
So this rom was a RUU for the google edition, so it replaced my bootloader and deleted CWM. Unfortunately, factory reset in bootloader, flashing zips, backing up or restoring in CWM do not work because of this weird rom. I have a RUU downloading from htc1guru(google it and find 1.10.605.10 Verizon RUU Zip) and it said it was decrypted. Does this mean that I have to encrypt? Or would I just fastboot oem rebootRUU and then flash the RUU? Also does bootlock need to be on or off when flashing?

not sure what boot lock is, unlocked boot loader?, if you run the ruu I thinknyou need to be in fast boot is all

Unlocked Bootloader
So ya that's what I meant unlocked bootloader. There is not an exe file I can find for RUU verizon HTC one. If u can find on that'd be awesome, but for now I have to download this RUU and try to flash it. I will update when I flash it, but it's a big download so it won't be soon.

Fixed it!
I successfully flashed that RUU and my one is back up and running. Thanks xda!:good:

But when I do the recovery on the phone it does not got to TWRP, it looks like is trying to find the twrp image but it just reboot
to normal mode. Have any of you have experience this?

Try and reflashing the recovery image. I had to do it twice for it to work right.

Brand new TMO M8.
Was able to unlock bootloader (HTC Dev method).
Loaded Philz Recovery via ADB.
Rooted via adb flash SU method.
Cannot S-OFF with Firewater (firmware 1.57), getting "whelp, this sucks."
Posted a pledge on the firewater bounty page.
Now I read that one actually does not need S-OFF for loading custom ROMs, which is good...

@cdfosburg what tool are you referring to? Link?

You can still s-off using sunshine.

[Q] Updating bootloader und er CM12

Okay guys i think i really ****ed up this time...
A few weeks ago I got so excited about the release of lollipop I installed a port the first day it was available... It went well and I got everything working on first try even battery was good on this one...
Now to the problem: I wanted to update today by installing cm12 on my HTC (international), after downloading it I went full chuck Norris and made a full while without making a Nandroid backup... So i go to install from SD and select the cm12 zip and an error occurs: you need bootloader 3.18.00 or so...
OK I thought just install the old room that worked.. ****... I deleted it a while ago when reseting my PC and I don't know which one it was... Tried 4 different rooms now and every one tells me to update my bootloader..
Does anyone know how to update the bootloader under cm 12 and with s-on?? Tried installing a sense rom but they don't work (no WiFi, no data nothing) I think it's because of the partitions under cm11 and 12...
I searched everywhere but can't find anything that works.. Pleaaase help me
Thx

Witch recovery version ?
You could fastboot flash a different recovery like Philz touch recovery put a backup from @Mr Hofs thread on your external sdcard and restore from it.or using a different recovery try a stock ROM

I tried a stock rom (Revolution) but nothing worked because the partitions were wrong (i think)...
Do you think installing a backup through Philz will work?
[Edit] can't find mentioned backup, do you have a link maybe? [Edit]
[Edit 2] Do you think one of those will work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 [Edit]

@AustrianAtheist
Your trying to use a stock recovery to flash a ROM?
Twrp is 2.8.4.0 right now,if your having partition issues than try a GPE ROM using a custom recovery

Are you using the original unlock.bin file or have you tried going through HTC website again.
I know you want it fixed ASAP but I need the information

I'm an idiot...
Des i downloaded the .bin file again but I didn't move the file to the adb directory... God... I'm so embarrassed right now
I made it through the unlock process again and installed twrp again and now that I'm on 3.18 hboot I managed to install cm12
But sadly I can't install a 4.4 sense ROM because there's no RUU for my cid (austria) so I can't update further, but at least I got cm12 running
Thx dude

Well just wait till Sunshine is updated and you can S-OFF to do whatever you want. Am glad you figured it out though
