hello,
would you be so kind to help me remove cwm and install stock recovery?
I tried to flash own recovery with All-In-One as well as through command line
I cleaned cache but there is always cwm as 'recovery'...
could you help me with that
regards
You need to flash the stock one as you did when you flashed CWM in the first place

You could try and flash the correct firmware.zip or a Stock Rom Reset
Don't think you can just flash a stock recovery without flashing an RUU or indeed one of the resets.
Don't understand why you would want to though...

Yeah you can. Find the stock recovery you want (pull it from a decrypted ruu zip for example) and flash it like any other recovery. Make sure ur bootloader's unlocked first.

Well, I can bet I tried this already and after flashing stock recovery and booting into bootloader I had initial cwm screen and then cwm is freezing (no menu)...
Is it important to do any specific action after flashing stock recovery?

If you had the recovery.img pulled from the RUU and you STILL have CWM after flashing, then either flashing went wrong or the recovery.img is NOT a stock recovery.
After flashing the stock recovery there shouldn't be anything with CWM anymore.

Hello, sorry for my probably noobish question.
I'm, trying to flash Evervolv's Aosp TexasIce Cream Sandwich on my gf's N1. I've followed all steps, installed Blackrose, set the suggested values, flashed the custom hboot. Then I've downloaded the ROM zip but I'm not able to flash it via fastboot.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash zip Evervolv-Perdo-2.2.0a6-passion-20120720.zip
sending 'zip' (110555 KB)...
OKAY [ 19.447s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) zip header checking...
(bootloader) zip info parsing...
FAILED (remote: parsing android-info fail)
finished. total time: 30.279s
Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I've also tried to uninstall Blackrose and try to flash the ROM via recovery, but Blackrose keeps waiting for the device and that's all.
Tried to flash the original hboot but Blackrose keeps installed...
Any help would be really welcome...
Many thanks.

I've been looking for the tarball but all links are broken. I supposed there was no problem flashing a rom via fastboot...
Could anyone share a mirror of the tar.bz2 file?
@Taodan, I'm not able to access the recovery and I also cannot load the current ROM, it gets stuck at the X logo...
Thanks for your help guys...

@kindgott your recovery might be corrupted. Flash recovery again. Do not uninstall blackrose and you need custom hboot for ICS ROM

Thanks Xeloni, but these are only JellyBean ROM links (3.0). Don't know if they are stable enough to be flashed.
Taodan, will flash another recovery, thanks!

My main problem now is that I've flashed 4Ext recovery but it is not working. Boot in fastboot mode, select Recovery and it gets stuck with the android screen... ¿?

I cleared cache with Android's own recovery. This phone was on 2.3.6 stock rom.
I flashed the latest 4Ext (4Ext classic recovery img) but it did not flash, as it does not appear once I boot in recovery mode.
Will try to clear cache from fastboot, that's my last hope... Thanks for the suggestion Earth08

So I've had a nexus one for a while now, and recently I decided to root it. I managed to unlock my bootloader and flash clock work recovery. I then made a stupid mistake of trying to flash a rom before rooting my phone or backing up my rom. When I power on my phone now it just freezes on the boot animation. The only thing I can do is access recovery. What is the easiest way to root my nexus one in this condition or is there anyway of flashing a rom, hence fixing it? Preferably from a Mac but I may be able to get access to windows or linux. Thanks in advance

Turn off your phone, pop your SD card in your comp and copy the su.zip into it. Pop it back into your phone, boot into recovery and flash it on. Voila, root access!
Then wipe cache, dalvik-cache and all those and reflash the ROM again. You should be good to go.
BTW. I hope you are flashing a ROM which needs a stock HBOOT. Coz for JB ROMs, custom HBOOT is needed. Cheers!

Thanks a lot for the help! Do you know of any JB or ICS roms that do not require a special HBOOT? And where is the download for the su.zip you mentioned? Thanks a lot
All newer ROMs have a larger system partition requirement, why not flash an older gingerbread ROM that doesn't require black rose until you get the hang of flashing.
You don't need to flash superuser or busy box or anything first, just wipe all in recovery, flash ROM (plus anything else needed like gapps) reboot

@demkantor is right. Basically you don't need su.zip coz most ROMs will have that flashed in already. I think the problem you were facing was because you did not wipe your cache/dalvik-cache and data before flashing on the ROM.
For me the stock phone is almost perfect as is. I'd just like root access to achieve different tasks using Tasker and Secure Settings.
So how can the following be achieved:
1) Root access without CWM Recovery
2) Still receive OTA's
3) Nandroid without CWM Recovery
4) Restore Nandroid without CWM Recovery
The important thing for me is still getting OTA's without having to flash stock recovery etc. Plan on staying stock as long as the OTA's continue.
I'm used to Samsung so the whole HTC rooting process is somewhat alien. Any guidance appreciated.

Use TWRP?
You can fastboot boot CWM, rather than flash it, but you know, it's probably a lot easier to flash the recovery and leave it on there until you need to install the OTA and then just flash stock back recovery.

I'm on mobile so, no, too much hassle.
fastboot boot cwm-recovery.img
Instead of
fastboot flash recovery cwm-recovery.img
But I feel that booting the recovery every time you want to back up or restore is more hassle than flashing stock recovery every OTA.
I just got a notification that there was a system update for my phone. I'm running a rooted, but otherwise stock phone. When it downloads and reboots it goes to the recovery menu instead of updating. Is there something that I need to do to get this to install?

Do you have the stock recovery or is it custom. You have to be on stock ROM and stock Recovery in order to OTA. You may lose root, but being rooted will not affect the OTA installing.
Ah, that may be the problem. I have TWRP installed, so does that mean that I'll have to flash a rom that's been updated?
Thanks!

You have to flash stock recovery at least. Some people were having luck just flashing the stock recovery and some were having to relock the bootloader as well. I tried flashing the stock recovery and running the update but it failed. I don't really want to relock my bootloader and lose all my data when I unlock it again, so I'm holding off for now.

Hi.
After unlocking my HTC, installing recovery and a custom ROM (ARHD 13.3) I have a problem with flashing kernels through recovery. Every time when it starts, phone reboots into system, just after the flashing starts, withough flashing the kernel. Any ideas?
Anyone? :-\ tried reflashing Rom with full wipe, tried other roms, changed the recovery...always the same.

Sounds strange! What kernel are you trying to flash? Did you also make sure your download's MD5 is correct; could be a bad download.
Yes, md5 sum is correct. I'm trying to flash anything strange is that after full wipe and reflashing Rom I can flash anything before first boot. After first boot can't flash zip files, like Rom cleaner or kernel. Phone always reboots just after flashing starts.
Once I've found that someone had such problem and formating something through adb helped...but can't find this info again
I tried flashing almost every kernel available.

I think Rom Cleaner should be flashed before first boot anyway, but not the kernel. Are you clearing cache and dalvik before trying to flash?
Yes. I even clean cache through sdk :-\ yep, the Rom cleaner should be flashed before first boot, but anyway it shouldn't reboot even later as I think.

Weird
Just for the sake of trying, a couple of ideas:
1- wipe the cache from recovery (not fastboot) and also wipe dalvik, then immediately flash kernel
2- perhaps there's a permission issue with the zip(s) / folder(s)
EDIT: perhaps you need to update recovery?
I reflashed recovery, tried CWM, TWRP...same on both think about going back to stock with RUU, then trying everything again from the start:-\
First advance...tried.
Second...U mean fixing permissions? Don't know if it's related to that problem, but of course will try.

Though I don't think custom recovery would have issues with permissions (since it's su privilege), it could be the folder where your zip files are doesnt have rw permission, and the recovery attempts to access the folder, is unable to, and therefore just reboots.
Try putting the zip file in a different directory (or maybe even the root folder) and try again.
In root folder? Don't understand where exactly...tried to place it on different locations in storage.

Obvious question, but the kernel is for your version of Android isn't it? You're not flashing a 4.3 kernel on to 4.2.2?
of course not I'm on android 4.2.2 and flashing the 4.2.2 kernel version
---------------------------
as for now everything's ok. Frankly speaking I didn't do anything new. reflashed recovery for the third time i believe, did the full wipe also few times, flashed arhd, rom cleaner and the kernel one by one and it works...for now
---------------------------
and no..it's still the same. After first boot, I rebooted into recevery, tried to flash different zip and what....and reboot just after flashing:/ it makes me sick...:/
Thanks to one and all. I was facing the same issue of being unable to install the Bulletproof kernel on my HTC One having ViperOne 4.2.0 custom rom and TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery.
I followed the advice here and wiped 'Dalvik cache' and 'cache' and (without rebooting) directly dirty flashed the Bulletproof kernel which did the trick.
Hope this helps someone else too.
Got the same problem. Tried with TWRP 2.6.6.3, 2.6.6.4 & actual CWM with failed tries to flash kernel,bootscreens,themes & the 360 camera fix.
Also tried to flash these recovery via fastboot and at least the m7&m7ul versions.
It happens suddenly
Btw: i'm on an tampered,unlocked hboot 1.54
Any help or ideas are much appreciated
