Hi everyone.
I was able to successfully unlock the bootloader and root the phone.
However, I have trouble trying to get into the Clockwork Recovery Mode. Every time I try I just get a message saying that this is a special distribution and some other legal stuff. I can't get into recovery mode.
Anyone else have this problem and fix it? If so, how so? I would like to install some custom ROMs.
Have u flashed the recovery in fastboot?. The screen with red letters is normal.it shows u have installed custom firmware on ur phone.

I believe I have. I have also done it via the Clockwork Mod app.
How would I go about making backups and installing custom roms?
For that u have to flash custom recovery. Flash it again...
Download appropriate recovery.img for ur phone. place it in fastboot folder.rename it recovery.img.go into fastboot n connect phone 2 pc.it should say fastboot USB. Now use command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img while in fastboot( not in boatloader screen).

I think I did that. But I will try again

Did it twice, unfortunately all I get is the disclaimer instead of the Clockword Mod recovery options. I can't even do a factory reset.
Here is what I used:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1635520
Still doesn't work.
If you flashed the clockworkmod recovery.img via fastboot and it says successful it should be on there. The HTC disclaimer boot screen is normal. You must boot into the bootloader and select recovery to get into clockworkmod.
The only recovery I can get working is Team Win. I Unfortunately after I install a rom it either freezes at the disclaimer or the rom reboots the system. The I can't even restore the stock recovery.
Any advice?

TWRP is more convenient than clockworkmod for this particular phone in my opinion. When flashing rom don't forget you have to flash boot.img (kernel) from the rom (usually extracted from the zip). If your having problems with roms you may have to RUU back to stock.
Hello to every one.
Please help as I have an N7100 that bootloops on the samsung animation.

Pull out the battery for at least 30 seconds then try to re-enter to recovery
HOLD VOLUME UP + HOME BUTTON + POWER BUTTON
release the POWER BUTTON after 4-5 seconds so it won't loop to logo. try.

I have the same issue when entering Recovery the screen turns black . I assume the recovery image is incorrect. Will dig in to it and hope to find a solution. Keep me updated from your side too.
All the best

You have to use the CWM recovery image from the Unofficial CM11 thread posted by Grarak.
This is the only one that loads properly first to allow the SuperSU flash.
Once you flash that specific recovery from that thread you can use any other recovery you would like.
Its a weird bug but its true.

Hi,
Could you please share downlod path for - CWM recovery image from the Unofficial CM11 thread posted by Grarak.
I have the same issue when entering Recovery the screen turns black.
Mobile handset details = Model -HTC desire 820q, Kernal 3.10.28, Android version 4.4.4
Thank You...
TWRP recovery
Download TWRP recovery for HTC 816 [a5]
You will need the platform-tools from the Android SDK on your computer. Find the Android command line tools section on the page linked and install the SDK tools package. From the SDK Manager, download only the platform-tools to get adb and fastboot binaries.
Windows users will need proper drivers installed on their computer. You can try the Naked ADB drivers or the Universal ADB drivers if you don't already have a working driver installed
On your device, go into Settings -> About and find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable developer settings. Press back and go into Developer Options and enable USB debugging. From your computer, open a command prompt and type:
adb reboot bootloader
You should now be in fastboot mode.
Download the correct image file and copy the file into the same folder as your adb and fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.img and type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

Hi all. Yesterday I rooted my ze551ml and tried to flash twrp onto my device. It was not successful and now I have no stock recovery. When I try to enter recovery by pushing the power button, it just returns to normal boot. I unlocked my bootloader with a file I found in the zenfone general section. How do I go about flashing the stock recovery. I downloaded a stock firmware from Asus and extracted it. But the recovery does not show up as a recovery.img. can someone give me some assistance or point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.

I have tried flashing twrp with twrp manager and it says successful. But when I try to enter recovery, it goes back to normal boot. No dead android. I have downloaded the firmware package for my phone and extracted the files. I found the recovery, but it does not appear to be a recovery.img file. I believe I need and image file to flash through ADB.

Thanks. I have tried downloading the stock firmware and extracted the recovery, buy can't seem to flash it as it is not a recovery image. Also the windroid toolkit doesn't recognise that USB debugging is enabled on my phone.

I don't know then I have no time today , all stuff is in that link re flashing recovery , stock or custom , full firmware etc etc ..you have minimal fastboot and adb installed ? Drivers etc , your fone is recognised in adb ? eg, adb devices ?
What I would do , is fastboot flash recovery.img (twrp) and be done with it .Although if you have damaged other stuff ..flash full firmware , all info is in the link ..
@quicksilver53 Are you saying that you wiped your Bootloader? Otherwise, if you've unlocked your Bootloader, go into Fast boot and flash the latest TWRP IMG with adb tools using the command "fast boot flash recovery TWRP.img"

I have tried to flash the latest TWRP recovery with those commands. It fails to flash. My bootloader has been unlocked with the unlock and relock program I found in the General section. I also have root. I have used root checker to verify. When I try to enter recovery, it goes right back to normal boot. I get no dead Android nor bootloader menu. I think when I tried to flash TWRP, it deleted my stock recovery. I am at a loss here. I never had this happen when flashing on my HTC one x or M7.

I have trouble getting into recovery through the power button too. Try turning on advanced power menu in developer options. Then try to reboot into recovery through the power menu.

I don't think your Bootloader is unlocked properly. Try unlocking again, as I myself have wiped my recovery partition more than once. The fast boot flash never fails me.

Quicksilver ? A few questions need answering please
1) do you have 'minimal adb and fastboot ' installed on pc ?
2) do you know the commands to flash a recovery in fastboot ?
3) and that you know how to get into fastboot ?
4) have you adb debugging enabled
Things to try, install 'reboot recovery' app from playstore and give it su rights then ..reboot bootloader ..then press the vol + once ...then try flash twrp in windroid toolkit ..the one for zen 2.
A few things to try there

Thank you for your efforts timbernot. I am on .174. I did download the stock recovery but for my build, but was unable to flash it. It showed up as recovery in my download folder. It is my understanding that I have to ad .img to it when I flash" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". I will leave it for this evening as I am terribly frustrated at the moment. I'll try again on the weekend.
