[solved] Unable to boot to recovery

For the last year I have been able to boot to recovery no problem. About a week ago it stopped booting to recovery. Holding home + power brings me to the g1 endless loop. The weird part is it will load any recovery right after I flash it via adb or terminal. I have tried out all the recovery images out there and they all are the same, I have to flash it before I can boot to it and it will only boot once, after reset I have to flash again to get back into it. The same goes for cm updater. I download the update, apply it, phone resets, g1 boot screen infinity... I am an advanced script kiddy and I can't find a solution anywhere any ideas on how to deal with this? Would a log help?
Thanks!

did you try to flash a new recovery.img?
^^
Every time I want to boot to recovery I have to flash. It does not matter what recovery.img I flash (RA, CM, etc..) I stil have to do it every time if I want to boot to recovery. If I reboot the phone or power off cycle more then once I lose the ability to boot to the recovery rom. Its as if it disapears after rebooting or shut down...
Solved...
I wiped and reinstalled cm's latest build. Works fine now. I'm guessing I have to wipe from now on I was really hoping I don't have to.
Thanks

When you say you mounted the the sdcard on your phone did you do it in recovery using the command "ums_enable" or did you reboot the phone so you could do it from the Android OS, if you allowed the phone to fully reboot it will overwrite your custom recovery with the stock recovery image

after i flashed the recovery and what not.
i turned my phone off home and power got me to recovery
so i restarted my phone and put the rom on the sdcard from my computer.
so thats the wrong way to do it?
so i should it in recovery from now on?
Once you flash your recovery, don't allow your phone to fully reboot or the stock recovery will overwrite the custom recovery you just installed
So make sure all the zip files you are going to need are already on you're sd card when you reboot to recovery

If you have the exclamation point, then you still have stock recovery.
Means you dont have Amon_RA's.
Hit Power+VolUP to try show up the menu.
If it does, then it's the stock.
Go reflash your recovery.

[Q]Problem entering custom recovery with my htc one.

Im sorry if im posting in the wrong place but i got a problem that i havent been able to fix. So i have a Htc one m7(at&t) is unlocked, has s-on and ofcourse is rooted. So currently im using insertcoin 7.0.4 and was using twrp custom recovery and it work perfectly. The thing is i wanted to flash the latest insercoin that is 7.0.7 but when i go to bootloader and hit recovery it goes to the logo part where it says "entering recovery" like always then it goes black for a few seconds and then comes back to the logo screen still saying "entering recovery" and it stays in that screen and it never goes into recovery. I try everything i used twrp and goo manager to install twrp or even clockmod and nothing it doesnt work, i even reflashed the custom recovery via command and nothing. My friend even install the stock recovery and it doesnt work. So i cant do nothing. My phone works fine, it is just that problem I cannot enter recovery. I search a lot but nothing help so please if you could help that will be a big help. Btw im sorry if im posting in the wrong place im new here. Thank you
