Wrong forum, but try flashing a recovery the proper way using fastboot.
Thank you. I did get back into it using hasoons tool kit.
I Was reading that if you dl goomanager and install the recovery it offers it works, Can anyone confirm?

I've never had any luck with good manager. I've written it off. I use TWRP Recovery myself, which I believe is the recovery you're talking about? I judt download it directly from TeamWin's website.
I feel like a broken record....
In the apps and themes section there is flashimagegui... It will correctly flash kernels and recovery on s-on devices

Same thing with ROM manager. Its just screws up your phone
As Ess said, dl thru TWRP site and flash thru ADB tools. Works a treat

as the title, my phone couldnt get into adb to get s-off
You need either HTC Dev unlock
or revolutionary s off to flash a custom ROM
That's the simple explanation

You can
And make sure you fast boot flash your boot.img as well
Sent from my Nexus 7
If you're unlocked through htc dev, just flash custom recovery (4ext touch recommended) and you can flash custom roms after that.
Just make sure to flash boot.img through adb as said by mark. Always do this after flashing new rom when you are s-on.

Every time you flash a new ROM or kernel you need to open up the zip of the new ROM and fast boot flash it, otherwise it probably wont boot unless there is a similar kernel already

If you use the app to install recovery, make sure to extract the recovery.img file in the downloaded zip and manually flash that through fastboot. Only have to do this while s-on

Im having a bit of trouble flashing WXC recovery. WXC was my original recovery but in order for me to use ROM Manager i needed to flash CM Recovery so i did. After i flashed it i learned that i actually cannot even get to recovery due to that fact that it just stays on the HTC logo. How can i fix this?
Go to the themes and apps thread...
Find flashimagegui...

Download Goomanager from the market...
Run Goomanager...
Hit menu button...
Hit install open recovery script...
Open flashimagegui...

Hi there,
I've used for a while with AT&T ROM without any problem.
Successfully rooted and CWM installed.
I tried to flash my phone by this ROM using CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171741
However I failed. My phone didn't work with it.
Now, I cannot go into my CWM anymore. Although I reinstalled it.
I still can access to Bootloader. Select Recovery but it showed some scripts then it couldn't go further.
Anyone can tell me how to fix it?
I am frightened now since my phone is nothing more than garbage now I cannot do anything with my phone
Thank you so much
You're gonna have to relock your bootloader and run the RUU then unlock your bootloader to flash your recovery again, then you'll be able to run your recovery again. Also if you're S-ON, you have to extract the boot.img from the rom you installed and flash it before you install the rom, otherwise the phone won't boot.
Download another recovery to your computer...
Go into hboot... go to fastboot... connect via USB
Fastboot flash recovery (recovery name)
Reboot bootloader... choose recovery

Hello,
I did the way you said and it worked!!
Thank you very much.
Note: I think the ROM I flashed had some kind of weird code that led to the problem.
I used AT&T edition for my Bell Canada phone. RUU said failed during the process, however, that's when I reinstalled my CWM and it works again!
Thank you everyone for helping me with this question!
Get away from CWM...
Switch to TWRP or WCX

Ur welcome and like do what ringfool said CWM doesn't play well with this device. I personally use WCX but switch recovery cuz most of the time roms flash with errors is because of the recovery.

Yes! CWM really works badly on HTC Holiday.
WCX really rocks! It shows everything precisely and large enough to look haha.
Most of ROMs can be flashed using WCX. CWM cannot open some
TWRP for the win...Is that redundant? Flashed it last night, works flawlessly with the cm10 rom
Someone needs too post a really big sign somewhere in these forums that says DO NOT USE CWM I have seen at least 5 guys in the last month getting screwed because of it. :sad:

Hey guys
Question
so im an idiot and didnt make a backup of my TELUS stock firmware on the one, so i am stuck on custom roms instead of sense, which i like oddly.
does anyone have a CMW backup of the TELUS stock rom?
i would kiss you.
hell if you get it i will give you some money for a beer or 2.
cheers!

:good:
I haven't been able to find a stock ROM from Telus, as I've been looking myself. However, I did find a HTC One Telus stock nandroid backup which will work too; that's what I used.
Let me find the link for you....okay well I haven't made 10 posts yet so I can't post links....Hopefully I wont get in trouble for this.
bugsylawson[DOT]com/files/file/1824-m7-twrp-nandroid-backup-cid-telus001-1296615/
Its a TWRP nandroid backup so if you use CWM you'll have to install TWRP.
Hope this helps!

You can boot into fastboot and then boot into recovery from there.
Even if you don't have cwm installed you can always

You probably have to extract the .rar to the twrp folder. On the computer you need to extract the rar file and adb push the contents to your twrp backup location.
Next time think before you wipe system. Then you won't run into problems like these.

Hello everyone,
i want to install a custom Rom, unlocked the Bootloader and tried to install CWM by using LeBobo's Recovery Flasher v1.4. I get a success-message in the command prompt, but it seems that CWM isn't installed. When i reboot into Recovery i get a broken Android Symbol.
I have attached two Pictures, perhaps you know what to do now?!
Thank you very much!
Getting the broken Andriod symbol is normal.
You need to press Vol+ and Vol- together to get into the menu.
I have found that you need to press and release them both together about 4 times to get in. But I'm only on the stock recovery so CWM may be a little different.
Hope you find a way in!!
Regards
Hill-Climber
Ok, now i'm in... But not CWM. Android System Recovery <3e>... Seems that CWM hasn't been installed
I have also tried and failed with the Lebobo method.
I have not had this confirmed and cannot find the answer but suspect you have to unlock the bootloader before you can install CWM or any otehr custom recovery. Hopefully someone will answer this soon.
Is your bootloader unlocked?

I guess that you're not bootloader unlocked but if you are, you can try another tutorial at development thread.
