Unable to Flash CWM recovery on 2.34.720.2 - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, yesterday I installed new software update 2.34.720.2. After that I tried to flash latest CWM recovery but after flashing when I tried to enter into recovery msg appeared 'Entering Recovery' but after that only black screen appeared. I used both methods .exe file method as well as cmd method but nothing worked. I searched the forums about this but didn't get the solution. My question - Is it happening due to installing latest software update and then flashing CWM recovery??

It is normal...after that just press volume up + power button for a couple of second and release both...then make your selection. Btw..its a stock lollipop recovery that came and flashed thru the ota update.

[Q] OTA Update fails to complete with red exclamation sign in a triangle

I have Android 2.3.5 rooted S-Off phone. I've received the new FOTA system update and cannot install it. Whenever I tap and agree on the update the phone reboots to boot screen with green progress bar which ends up in a screen with a red exclamataion sign inside a red triangle all on the top of a phone image. Does anybody have any solution to overcome this problem?
same problem here...!
do you have custom recovery installed??
OTA requires stock recovery to work
click thnx if this helped

To install the ota update first install the original recovery, then relock the boot loader and(optional unroot your phone).
You won't have any problem updating then.
To relock boot loader you can use the guide HTC has made to unlock it or else(easier step) use some tool such as rezo609's all in one tool.
Hitting thanks doesn't hurt

That's not the issue....
1: updating with root is no problem
2: updating with an unlocked bootloader is also no problem
@ OP !
Is it the stock rom or a custom one ? Give all info. What rom, what update exactly (version number)
I am using stock android 4.1.1 and update is android 4.2.2 and my phone is not rooted only boot loader is unlocked

Then updating should not be an issue. Seen that problem before on T-mobile branded phones.
Maybe a factory reset can help and after update again. Sure you didn't delete any (system) apps that could cause this ?
Nope I didn't delete any system app but I can't do system reset cuz I have lots of apps plz tell me any other way and I am on( Optus)
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
No other way .... or backup with titanium backup or something like that.
I emailed htc and they send me this message so I factory reset it but the process of reset didn't completed and set freeze on quitely brilliant

So the update still no go, then you have 2 options :
1: flash a custom recovery and rom
2: relock the bootloader and send it in for warranty
I don't know how to flash and relock bootloader

had the same problem
try this this should work as it worked for me
go to general section and download Hasoon2000s toolkit
connect your phone to pc and copy the update zip file to pc. (only copy, dont move)
in your pc, extract the update zip and repack it WITHOUT the "firmware.zip" present in it.
in the toolkit, choose flash factory ruu zip.
choose firmware.zip
after the flashing is complete, phone should reboot to recovery and your update should be installed.
if it does not, and the phone is still on the update screen (blue-gray screen with htc logo), or reboots to fastboot, reboot it to recovery manually from fastboot.
if still it does not update automatically, unlock your bootloader, flash philz CWM, reboot recovery, mount the storage to pc, copy your REPACKED zip (which does not contain the firmware) and flash it like normal custom ROM WITHOUT wiping (wipe only if you get a bootloop but dont wipe system in any case)
your phone should boot up normally

Wrong kernel bootloop help

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

[Q] GPE 4.4.4 flash problem

Hey guys I flashed the GPE HTC One M8 4.4.4 ROM as listed in this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706441&page=6
Before this I had CM11 M10 - I did the usual factory reset and so on / wiped data etc and then flashed the ROM via TWRP recovery. Problem is just after the Google animated logo when I get to the setup screen the device powers off and reboots after about 15 seconds. I've tried flashing twice.
Anyone any thoughts on this? I have the international GSM HTC One M8 so my device should be compatible?
Thanks,
Fintan
I usually get this if my SuperSu need to update. Try flashing updated SuperSu

first of all, I recommend TWRP instead of CWM. then, find the newest possible recovery and flash that. it will work
