First time trying to root, I have an htc one. I got it unlocked and I've done everything correctly, but it still won't boot into recovery mode. I flashed the image file from twrp and i tried another one from cwm but neither is working, so my next idea is to clear my cache through adb but i'm not sure how to do that. can someone guide me?

Put the phone in fastboot mode and then run, on your computer:
fastboot erase cache
Sure you grabbed the correct twrp and flashed correct? Fastboot flash recovery blah.zip ?
When booted go to settings and power. Makes sure fastboot is not selected.

Are you picking recovery from your bootloader? If it is on fastboot you have to pick bootloader then recovery. Or if phone is booted adb reboot recovery.

Let me know if it works and how you done it that would be great thanks
Working with flyhalfs touch (CWM) version, everything is fine.
After flashing the recovery u should fastboot erase cache.
If u got no rom on SD u should connect an OTG before booting into recovery and flash zip from external sd.

erasing the cache solved the problem. thanks helmut!
Mine still not having it it's saying tampered and unlocked any ideas
Flash this
Then flash it from cmd with
Code:
fastboot flash recovery CWM_Touch_6.0.2.8_M7.img
Code:
fastboot erase cache
If there are still problems, rename CWM_Touch_6.0.2.8_M7.img to "recovery.img" and use the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
LG, Helmut

When you flash the recovery.img, was it successful and did you wipe the cache afterward?
Are you able to enter the bootloader then select Recovery, does it try to enter recovery then reboots?

Try flashing a different recovery to the one you have installed.

I seem to be having the exact same problem. Really starting to annoy me, I need to root my phone already haha!
Did you end up getting it to work?
Cheers!

according to the TWRP thread, it doesn't seem to be supported yet
I've got the same problem with the non working recovery. I now tried the CWM Touch AND Classic Recovery v6.0.3.0.
I tried to flash them with the All in One Tool by Hasoon 2000 and also manually with CMD commands (fastboot flash recovery & afterwards fastboot erase cache). It always said flash successful, but it's not able to boot into recovery.
I've got a Swiss HTC One Branded by Swisscom (which seems to use a vodafone CID: VODAP110).
My Build Number is 1.28.161.7 CL162357 release-keys
may that cause the problem?
I somehow got it to work. I didn't make any changes (that I can remember) but I tried it the next day again, booting into recovery with the HTC One (M7) All-In-One Toolkit V1.0, and it just worked!
Hopefully you guys can get it to work somehow too!
HA! I finally got it.
Just don't try to flash recovery as recovery, flash it as a boot img. CWM touch and TWRP was NOT working for me, but normal CWM does.
But it seems to be some issues with ADB, so please wait until i got my Guide ready

just to be sure:
you used "fastboot flash boot recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.0-m7.img" and it worked?
I don't want to mess up my phone, because I can't backup my current boot.img...

Go into fastboot and command
fastboot erase cache
Then try accessing recovery again...
Edit: or if you're using the toolkit, I think that has an option to erase cache if you can't get the command to work

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 recently got an HTC One from CSpire. I had no trouble unlocking the bootloader. When I try to go into a custom recovery so that I can root, I get the message "Entering Recovery...". However, this screen only lasts a few seconds then my phone boots up like normal, completely skipping the recovery. I've tried multiple versions of TWRP and CWM. Any ideas? I'm not that experienced with android devices. I haven't been able to root because of the recovery issue I am having. Please help!

what instructions are you using to flash the recovery ?
do you have the all in one kit ?
Reboot on fastboot with Power volume down.
Once you are in fastboot you enter the following command:
fastboot erase chache
After this you should be able to reboot in recovery without any problem
Good luck

Clearing the cache didnt work. I just tried again using TWRP 2.5.0.0. I know its not the latest, but the latest doesn't work either.
Also sometimes when I try to go into recovery, my device freezes on the "Entering Recovery..." screen.

I've tried a couple different all in ones. None of them work. And I can push the recovery to the phone no problem. Its when I actually try to go into Recovery from the boot menu that I have this issue.

Have you tried the following command in fastboot?, fastboot flash recovery (name of your recovery file).img
Make sure you have the right recovery file for your device, example: openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7.img

Yes. Multiple times. I've done everything I can find on the web so far. It's almost like the recovery isn't sticking (Not sure if thats possible.) Maybe I need to try and get S-Off?
SOLVED!! I had to use the Sprint Version of TWRP. It worked the first try!
Not really sure what I'm doing wrong. Last rooted phone was a Nexus 5, and that was of course painless to root and flash ROMs to...
I'm using a Verizon XT1096 with 5.1 on T-Mobile.
So I was able to get the bootloader unlocked via Motorola's website, now that Verizon is allowing them to do so. No problems there. My problem now is that I can flash a recovery, but if it reboots, the recovery is gone. And I can't get any recoveries to flash anything. I can't push an apk, root zip, or even a ROM. Says Installation Aborted, with no other error codes. Even tried CWM and disabling Signature Checking, which gives me more info, saying that the footer is mismatched. Phone does say the bootloader is unlocked though so that shouldn't be it...
Honestly, I'd just like to get it on CM12 until I can get a Nexus 6P.. Can anyone tell me if I'm doing something wrong? Or is there just no way to root yet? I figured even the XT1095 CF-Auto-Root method would work for 5.1, but no dice..
Not sure what to do here. Please move my thread if need be. Don't post here much...
I followed the instructions on the TWRP website (link below) and it worked flawlessly. One thing you have to do is, after running the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command, make sure to manually scroll on the phone and reboot into recovery. Hope that helps...

There is a partition mismatch. So do this. Download supersu and place it in the phones memory. Boot to fastboot mode and then fastboot boot recovery.img rather than fastboot flash recovery.img. You will boot to twrp, install SuperSU then download twrp from the playstore and install thru the app. It works, that's how I did it. Also when booting to recovery from the fastboot menu choose recovery with the vol up key rather than power button.

I thought I tried that but maybe not. I've read that some stock ROMs can and will overwrite the recovery upon booting, but I could be wrong. I'll look at that when I get home tonight.

Thank you, I'll try this tonight when I get home. This may solve it. I think I remember the bootloader spitting something out about a partition mismatch.. Will report back as soon as I try it.
So I went ahead and tried both your guys' methods.
Oraixearl, I figured your solution would work, but it actually didn't, to my surprise. It returned no results, as the root zip didn't end up doing anything.
RepeatUntilTheEnd's solution worked here. I guess I didn't try rebooting the phone after flashing the recovery, before going into it..
So here's what I did.
1.) Boot into bootloader
2.) Fastboot flash recovery [recovery.img]
3.) adb reboot bootloader
4.) Used keys on phone to go into recovery,
5.) Flashed root.zip
6.) Booted into OS, and ran root checker. Worked.
7.) To my surprise, TWRP stuck around, too.
Thank you guys!
