I have a rooted HTC 816 and i am using stock rom. after rooting my phone, whenever i switch off the phone and try to charge it, the phone goes to cwm recovery. When i choose option power off in the cwm recovery and try to resume charge, it again goes to cwm recovery .

Currently running cwm 3.0.0.8 and CM7 rc1 I believe.
I CAN get into the rom, and everything else on the phone works. However....
I cannot get into recovery in any way. Not by using rom manager, not by holding down the power button and selecting restart into recovery, not by shutting down the phone and rebooting while holding volume down. I get stuck on the splash screen indefinitely every time.
Any suggestions?
Do I need to use an older version of cwm?
I would really like to have recovery back...
Any help appreciated.
Edit: Found a solution. Just had to flash an older version of CWM then flash back to the new version. Sorry for the extra unnecessary thread.
Try to install a new recovery through ROM Manager.
this happens to me whenever I downgrade the CWM from 3008 to 3007, i can never go straight into recovery thatway. I usually flash the recovery from RM twice, and reboot. Then flash into recovery and it generally works.
Don't know why it happens...just does.
good luck!
The phone wont boot, power down or go into bootloader mode
I was on Viper Rom.
I installed Philz Touch recovery and flashed AICP boot.img
No wipe yet.
Because I didn't go into Philz recovery yet I rebooted the device and now I'm stuck..
What can I do?

Problem solved was using volume up instead of volume down
So my S3 just died a day ago and the only other phone I have right now is the Epic 4g but unfortunately the Keyboard is dead. Only the Volume rockers are working, the power and the camera button is dead too.
I can still power on the device using a jig, it also helped me jump to download mode as the custom rom I had was stuck in boot loop. So I was able to flash stock FC09 using Odin.
Now since the phone isn't detecting the keyboard the only way to wake the device is to connect and disconnect the usb cable.
So, I was trying to install CM as CM has a option where we can set the volume rockers to wake the device up.
But unfortunately I haven't been successfully able to install any recovery. Since I can't stop the device before rebooting after flashing a recovery through odin, samsung replaces the recovery back to stock. Rom manager too have been unsuccessful. Framaroot is able to root the device but that too for some reason is just a temporary root, after a few restarts its gone. I tried flashing two or three kernels that were available which were prerooted and had recoveries inbuilt but unfortunately they too didn't work. The Shadow Kernel with the CM recovery was just messed up as it was unable to locate and mount any of the partitions.
I even tried looking for a custom rom or a prerooted rom which can be flashed through odin but I have been unable to find anything the whole day.
I thought the easiest thing to do was to replace the recovery image in the tar but that too requires ubuntu and some coding and than there is a format and queue and if the .img/.bin files aren't installed in that order then it will brick the device.
Can some one just direct me to a odin flashable .tar cm rom or a stock rom with built in cwm recovery which I can then use to install cm.
Please give solutions considering:
I can't jump to recovery after download mode as neither power nor camera button works. So any recovery flashed through Odin just gets overwritten back to stock.
Your help is highly appreciated.

What recovery did you flash first? Also describe exactly what you did step by step to flash that and TWRP. You might try to power down your phone and press power button /volume down and hold to enter your boatloader then release buttons when in boatloader. Then use volume key to select recovery and hit power button to enter it. It may be flashed and it's just needed a reboot back into recovery to show. Official TWRP for our a5 found on the TWRP website does work on our phone so it's probably something easy to correct. Let me know.
I follow your all steps and successfully unlocked bootloader mode and you mention that cwm recovery use i got successfully flashed recovery message but when i presss power button nd volume down...

Try flashing your Stock recovery and test if the screen is still black. If it's not, try flashing cwm once more. That's what made my black screen go away.
Ok so if you've ever flashed a firmware through odin or flashed a system, etc.. and got this message when you try to boot your phone. Theres a way to fix it.. Usually when this happens you can only boot into download mode and the custom recovery doesn't work. Theres a trick I use whenever I encounter it I boot to download mode and turn on odin then in odin turn off auto reboot in the settings. Next flash a custom recovery then pull the battery out after it flashes. Wait a little bit put the battery back in then press volume up, home, and power at the same time and it will boot you into recovery. Once in recovery you can flash another custom rom or stock rom or restore a backup.
