Please help me with my HTC one v (virgin mobile)

My htc one v (virgin mobile) (no simcard) (i think is CDMA) is not installing any backup recovery program no matter how many times i try to install it.I installed ROM Manager after unlocking bootloader and installing the CDMA version of root. After rooting it i finally clicked install the CWM from the ROM Manager. Everytime that i try to boot into recovery or make a back up it either freezes at the HTC screen which has red lettering that says that i shouldn't distribute htc stuff but i don't know what i'm doing wrong. I've followed many tutorials but i don't know why this is happening. I downloaded rootchecker and checked to see if i was rooted and it said that i was. I have SuperSU and everything. What am i doing wrong and how can i fix this so i can enter recovery mode to make backups so i can flash various roms? Please help me. Thank you

You need fastboot flash to install the recovery. Installing the recovery thru ROM manager may not work.
Here you can have link to the recovery : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31868324&postcount=4
You need to boot your device in fastboot mode (same way like you first unlock the bootloader) then run command
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery,img

[Q] Cannot get out of boot animation nor flash by odin or fastboot - Help please

Hi everyone, I'm new here and I have a GNex on my hands.
While I received it to fix; I could not get it past a bootloop from the nexus 4.0.4 Boot.
Problem is I cannot seem to get past the boot animation screen nor upgrade it.
Tried flashing another bootloader via fastboot, and the bootloader does not change, stays in same version.
HW Version : 9
Bootloader version : PRIMEKK15
Baseband version : I9250XXKK6
I proceed doing a fastboot erase bootloader and trying another bootloader, rebooting into another bootloader but no luck
Tried also ODIN flash but no luck; stays into the same
Booting into recovery mode goes into stock recovery and tries to flash a file from /cache
By trying to flash CWM via fastboot flash recovery <cwm image> flashes image but no luck on booting into CWM.
Anbody can lend a hand please?
Thanks!

You can flash a custom recovery like cwm or twrp. Then you can acces the custom recovery and adb push your ROM and gapps. Then you do the wipes and flash the ROM and gapps. If you dont understand anything you just have to tell me

Thanks mrgnex. I've tried flashing TWRP, but the only thing it does is boot into stock recovery and tries to flash a file from /cache/, which file is: 5a81769b6d01.signed-yakju-IMM76I-from-ICL53F.5a81769b.zip; pretty weird. Issue is the same as this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909331&page=4

use: fastboot boot recovery.img

and "recovery.img" which recovery do you suggest? twrp or a CWM in particular?

doesnt matter. whichever.

While now I'm trying to install latest TWRP (already did and no luck) I'm downloading the pack from the "Have you read this?".
The things that I'm seeing right now that seem to be wrong are:
1 - everytime I reboot the phone, the "fastboot oem unlock" seems to be gone and phone re-locks again (weird!)
2 - every change I make to the filesystem, seems to be non-persistent I/E: push something via adb push and on reboot it's gone! :/
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you elaborate on why exactly you were not able to install TWRP?

Surely:
1 - Unlock via fastboot oem unlock
2 - fastboot erase recovery (exits with ok)
3 - fastboot flash recovery twrp_versiondoesnotmatter.img (exits with ok)
4 - reboot w/power+vlup+voldown and select reboot recovery
5 - stock recovery appears
an alternate method that i've tried:
1 - Unlock via fastboot oem unlock
2 - fastboot boot twrp_versiondoesnotmatter.img (exits with ok)
3 - TWRP boots and flashes a zipfile from /cache/ then reboots automatically
That's what happens. A mistery, huh?
Also I've tried OMAP Flash, and; the same issue happens over and over again

Have you tried doing a factory reset using the stock recovery?

AFAIK, Yes
What happens once I start the stock recovery; as I've already stated; starts flashing a zip file located into /cache/ (5a81769b6d01.signed-yakju-IMM76I-from-ICL53F.5a81769b.zip); then bleh, starts the bootloop again.
I've tried the power+volup then selected wipe cache and wipe system and it's the same.

Did you try flash google's stock images (all of them) ?
Also try flashing TWRP in the boot (kennel) partition by :-
Code:
fastboot flash boot <path to twrp>.img
This will force the phone into Recovery (But you will have recovery bootloop , can be solved by flashing a kernel) .
when you boot into recovery install a Kernel and ROM . also you will lose the recovery after that .
You can flash the TWRP from the TWRP itself (to put it in the right partition) by (in the build in terminal) :-
Code:
dd if=/<path to twrp in SD>.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8
Good Luck .

fastboot flash boot <path to twrp>.img does not boot the recovery . I mean; still boots the normal Kernel.
Actually I'm trying what TheMysteriousOne told me by downloading the stock Gnex zip (250Mb) to flash via Odin.

Ohh, bad luck strikes again:
<ID:0/011> system.img
<ID:0/011> Complete(Write) operation failed.
cannot write system.img :/
Any ideas?

Unlock your bootloader with omapflash. Although even if it does unlock, Your emmc/board probably has died.

I've downloaded a file called OMAPFlash_tuna.zip.
- Set battery of the device aside
- Plug device into USB, let it detect the device and flash the SBF I think.
That'd be all?

Pardon me, if EMMC/Board is dead; why does it boot or get into bootloop? There is something that reflashes itself; it even overrides odin or heimdall...

Have you tried going back to completely stock using the method outlined here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

[Brick phone] help needed

I have flashed many phones before my G4 and this is the first time I'm having to ask for help.
The firmware installed was AICP CM13, then the screen went green with a DemiGod message. I held the vol down button to reboot and it came back up. After a few restarts and green screens i figured I needed to reflash the firmware. I booted into Recovery and while wiping the device to flash a new firmware, TWRP crashed. After leaving it for half hour or so, I took the battery out to enter into TWRP so I can flash the new firmware. TWRP is no there to be seen. I hold down the vol down and power button, releasing power for second or two and choose to go into recovery. Every time the phone just gets stuck on the LG screen displaying "Bootloader state :Bootlader unlocked!".
In short, I have no firmware, the device has been wiped and TWRP doesn't seem to be working.
I have tried to flash a KDZ file (H81520A_00.kdz) using the flash guide here. This comes back as unsuccessful saying "connection to server failed". As shown below.
View attachment 3605673
The method to flash an .img file using cmd on the pc includes moving the 4gb .img file to the parent folder of the phone storage. I can't get to move any files whatsoever to my device so figured this method would not work.
Seems if I can somehow flash TWRP, then I should be able to install a new firmware.
Any help much appreciated.

Hi, Can you get an ADB connection to your phone, or get your phone into bootloader somehow. From there you could try 'fastboot boot recovery.img'?
If so, then from within TWRP you can flash twrp recovery so the recovery is then sorted. Then you could flash click here (the full version). This will then allow LG UP to find a connection. From there if you really wanted to can flash any KDZ as a proper reset. Hope it works buddy!!

I can get into recovery but I am unsure as to how I could try 'fastboot boot recovery.img'. Would that be the same as flashing an img when the root method first came out?

Just to make sure you know. TWRP is your recovery. Your last message said you did not have TWRP?
When I first rooted my phone (and subsequently when I install a .kdz), I have to go into the bootloader and install TWRP. I personally do this by using the above command "fastboot boot recovery.img" with the recovery.img being placed on my computer in the same location as my adb installation. This command only boots up TWRP but does not flash it. I then flash twrp by having a copy of it on my external sd card. Within twrp you can select to flash zip, or there is an option to flash an image. I use this to flash twrp (from twrp... its a little inception like but it works). Once you have twrp up and running, you can install a rom. If you want to do flash a .kdz, I have found you need to be on a stock based rom in the first place hence why i referenced the v20a full system zip.
Hope that made sense.
Regards,
Ravi

It is late here and with me being tired I said recovery instead of download. I can boot into download mode but when I try to boot into recovery then it just goes straight to the LG splash screen and it will either remain in that screen or the green Demigod screen would come up.
I'm off to sleep and away from my laptop as I have to be up in 5 hours. Luckily I still have my Note 4 so at least I'm not without a phone in the morning. I will try the steps what you have suggested just as soon as I get back from work.
Many thanks

I have finally got chance to sit down and have a go at performing the procedure listed above. I downloaded the adb and fastboot installation as outline here. It is the minimum to what this thread says I will need for my device. I moved the recovery.img to the installation location which were in Windows/programs files (x86)/Minimal adb and fastboot. I launched the program and typed in 'fastboot boot recovery.img'. I tried this in download mode, charging mode (phone off) and while on the LG flash screen where TWRP didnt load but in all cases I have had no response at all.
If someone can help the much appreciated.

Tried to flash two and deleted stock recovery.

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 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 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.

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.

LG G4(bootloop after flashing wrong boot image)

Hello guys,
I have a big problem. Today i wanted to unlock my bootloader, flash a custom recovery and root my phone. Unlock the bootloader wasnt a problem. Then i boot the recovery.img from adb to install it from there, but when i wanted to install it first i selected the wrong option(boot not recovery). So after a restart i just came always back in the recovery. So i searched a boot image to install it with twrp. I think i found and installed the wrong one because now i only see the animation of lg, thats all. Please can anyone help me?

Hello guys,
I have a big problem. Today i wanted to unlock my bootloader, flash a custom recovery and root my phone. Unlock the bootloader wasnt a problem. Then i boot the recovery.img from adb to install it from there, but when i wanted to install it first i selected the wrong option(boot not recovery). So after a restart i just came always back in the recovery. So i searched a boot image to install it with twrp. I think i found and installed the wrong one because now i only see the animation of lg, thats all. Please can anyone help me?

Well first at all you didn't make any mistake by installing recovery.img as boot. Couse after that you had to install recovery.img using TWRP at first boot. There are tutorials how to that properly, dunno why u dont read carefully before doing something like that.
Now i think the easiest solution would be just reinstall stock rom using LGUP tool. Ofcourse you can still try use adb tool. What you need to do is to find proper boot file for you model and android version and put it to adb folder and flash it same as recovery.
You can easy get into download mode by taking battery out, connecting phone using usb with computer and then while holding volume up button put back battery.

I would recommend to start using google. As i spent like 5 mins to gather all info for that.
