Hey there
I am following this guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
I am already familiar with this because I have had the HTC One X before. I unlocked the bootloader and then I flashed TWRP in fastboot and everything checked out on command prompt but it still won't boot into the custom recovery! A black screen shows up for a while but then it disappears and the HTC boot animation shows up and it boots into the software.
Does anyone know what could be the problem?
Thanks!
Never mind. The step I was missing was rebooting the device after flashing the custom recovery, I just tried to boot right in recovery instead.
Thanks!

I was running ARHD 10.1 and flashed TeamSeven's kernel in Clockwork Recovery. Went to reboot and the phone just boot loops, no big deal right. So when I put the phone back into bootloader screen and tried to boot into recovery it boots for about .50 seconds into my custom recovery then boots back to the Fastboot HTC Screen. Im unable to get into my custom recovery. Ive tried using the All in one tool to flash different recoverys and have been successful in doing so, I know this because they boot for the .50 seconds into TWRP or Clockwork then goes back into the HTC Fastboot screen. Does anybody have any ideas? How can I fix this? I tried to sideload a rom but it seems it will not let me until im able to get into my custom recovery.
Have you used ADB to delete cache, Then re-flash a recovery ? Then full wipe etc and clean install a Rom ?

type fastboot erase cache from PC while phone is in fastboot. you should be able to get into recovery afterwards. If not, flash another recovery from fastboot. fastboot flash recovery RECOVERYNAME.img
I unlocked the bootloader on my HTC One and successfully flashed CWM recovery; however, when I try to boot into recovery the HTC splash screen comes up with "Entering Recovery" for a few seconds (as it should), then the screen goes black for a second and it boots into the ROM like normal without going into Recovery.
I've seen that the general fix for this is to clear the dalvik-cache, but I can't do that without root permission, and I can't install the superuser to get root without being able to boot into the Recovery.
I have developer options enabled with USB Debugging, Fastboot is turned OFF.
I have flashed to plain CWM, touch CWM, and TWRP, all with the same results.
fastboot erase cache had no effect

are you flashing recovery with adb-fastboot, what computer os are you using
are you usung the correct recovery image, for the sprint m7wls, (fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7wls)
use goo manager to flash the recovery and see
or you can use the all in one tool in the dev section

I am using the "fastboot flash recovery" command on Windows 7 64-bit (I have also tried on 32-bit).
You were right about the recovery file, I was using openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7.img, not m7wls. So for anyone who finds this thread later make sure it's the right recovery file for your build and carrier (not just phone model).
Hello.
I was in the process of upgrading my HTC One from 4.2 and successfully unlocked the bootloader. But thereafter my phone just constantly reboots. It shows the HTC splash screen for about 10 seconds and the reboots again.
I am able to go into the fastboot screen (see screen shot). But when I select Recovery, the phone gors to the next screen - displays "Entering Recovery" - and nothing else happens thereafter.
Can anyone please help? Have looked at other such questions and tried but nothing has helped.
Thanks

I'm not sure you did ever flash a custom recovery!
1. Put your phone in fastboot from the bootloader meny. You already did this while rooting, so you got it already!
2. In your "SDK-tools" folder that you used while unlocking the device, put [nameofyourrecovery].img I recommend you to install TWRP 2.6.3.3, as it is the best one for flashing kitkat and lets you do this if you wish I cannot give you a link as I am a new member, but search google for TWRP 2.6.3.3 and you will find it. Make sure it is .img and not .zip!
3. While in fastboot, open a command prompt in the ADB folder.
4. To flash your custom recovery, type
fastboot flash recovery [nameofyourrecovery].img

Does not help. Used 2.6.3.3, the flash process went fine, then Recovery displays "Entering Recovery" - and then again bot loop.

You have an M7CDWG, twrp is for M7_U & M7_UL models, if i'm not mistaken. Start googling for M7CDWG, it's a completely different phone than the U / UL phones.
and you need to "fastboot erase cache" after flashing recovery

Not really, don't know much about your model. You'll need to find a ROM compatible with your device; if it doesnt specifically say it's for your device, then most likely it isn't!!
I think there's a Maximus HD ROM for your version, but i have no idea where.
Did you..
Aside from flashing a recovery and rooting your phone, did you make any other modifications or flash any other partitions?
If no, then wipe Dalvek cache from TWRP. Boot into TWRP and select Wipe. Select advanced. Select Dalvek and Cache. Wipe power down. then power on and see if it will boot.

Yes, Maximus has a ROM for dual SIM, Flashed, all went well, but the reboot loop still exists.
Thanks

Did as you mentioned - all went fine. But the reboot loop simply does not go away.

i had a similar problem last week with a One, a friend bricked his One by flashing "???" Dont know exactly whar he has done.
The phone had boot loops all the time.
my solution was:
- connecting the phone with the usb cable to my pc.
- started the phone into fastboot usb mode
- started cmd at my notebook
- change to the directory which contains adb and fastboot
- execute: fastboot erase cache
- restarted the phone
the phone starts normally into ARHD 40.3
perhaps it works ...
Right now I'm attempting to boot into a custom recovery not on the phone. While my cmd window says that it works the bootloader freezes instead of booting into the custom recovery. Does anyone have any experience with this problem?

you can no longer fastboot boot recovery .. you have to flash it
I tried to unlock bootloader and installing the twrp in micromax bharat 4. Unlocking was success and then i installed twrp using 'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'. then i tried flashing magisk on to it. There i made a mistake in the code. I used 'fastboot flash recovery \magisk_patched.img' instead of 'fastboot flash boot \magisk_patched.img'. all the process are showed as succeasfully completed. After that when i reboot the phone, it was stuck at 'powered by android' screen. It is not showing any logos or anything. I also cant access bootloader or fastboot mode.
Anyone please help!
Thanks in advance.
A bad flash to the recovery partition should normally not mess up the bootloader (which is fastboot mode, same thing). To get everything back up and running again you'd have to be able to enter the bootloader though, so you're going to have to figure that one out.
There's a pretty active Bharat 4 thread here that might be a good place to ask for help:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...p-root-micromax-bharat-4-q440-cg-sky-t4001911
Thanks for the help. I read the entire forum but didnt find the relevant solution for me. The problem is that i cannot access the fastboot mode micromax bharat 4
