Here is the Lastest CM7 CWM 5.0.2.8 Recovery in PC49IMG.zip format.
No change log just got this build from building CM7 Sources for the Buzz so thought i pass it on like!
I have noticed though if you press the home and menu button the Selection bar goes up and down and search button now enters.
Feel free to mirror.

Place on the root of your SDCard boot in to Hboot mode and it will want to flash say yes and reboot.
If your like me and are fastboot fans you can type.
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Enjoy!

if it won't work through the .zip file - try this:
Extract the zip, and rename to recovery.img to make it simple in ADB.
move the recovery.img to the same folder as your fastboot is in so it will be in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / recovery.img
as fastboot is located in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / fastboot.exe
then follow these commands EXACTLY as I tell you.
reboot phone in to bootloader - Power off, then HOLD volume down and press power, use volume keys for up and down and select fastboot.
now, open command line and start ADB - This part I expect you to know if you have a rooted phone, but humour me - the commands are " adb start-server"
remount, and open a shell - the commands are "adb remount", then enter "adb shell"
then enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
FINALLY, enter "fastboot reboot"
Recovery update complete... try rebooting into recovery to confirm this.
PLEASE NOTE - Some people have had issues with running fastboot through shell, if the above steps do not work try this: -
reboot phone in to bootloader - Power off, then HOLD volume down and press power, use volume keys for up and down and select fastboot.
now, open command line and start ADB - This part I expect you to know if you have a rooted phone, but humour me - the commands are " adb start-server"
Remount, "adb remount"
now we are ready to get started to flash this recovery, firstly you must navigate to your fastboot folder - fastboot is located in ANDROID-SDK / TOOLS / fastboot.exe - and launch cmd from the tools folder.
to do this you must first erase your current recovery and then flash the new recovery.img
So to wipe the recovery, when in terminal enter " fastboot erase recovery "
then enter the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
FINALLY, enter "fastboot reboot"
Recovery update complete... try rebooting into recovery to confirm this.
PLEASE NOTE please ensure you have entered these commands carefully or you will NOT have a recovery on your phone.

guys i have clockworkmod V4xxxx something... and thinking to upgrade to this 1... so can u tell me how to do it?? should i just enter recovery by pressing vol. down n power button and then flash this zip from my current clockworkmod??
You need to flash it via fastboot.
Flashing in recovery will give you temperory recovery. After reboot you will be reverted to your previous recovery.

First make a nandroid backup
Download the PC49IMG.zip file from the OP put on root of sdcard then power off , power on with volume down pressed and when it asks to update say yes wait to finish then power off
Remove sdcard use pc to delete PC49IMG.zip reinsert sdcard then power on
If you use custom partitions you need to boot in to cwm and restore your partitions and your backup that you made earlier then reboot
Nice, i'm using it now. Thx bro
using it now!
Worked like a charm, thanx!
It seems that after I flashed the recovery my phone gets stuck on the htc logo screen. And as mentioned above i deleted the update file after flashing
I followed the video tutorial and when I flash recovery, then proceed to boot into recovery it fails to boot into recovery, it just flashes then boots like normal when I perm root. I don't know what's going on. I tried the clear cache command with no response.
I have searched and didn't find anything.
Anyone able to help please?
It is most likely you did something wrong when you flashed the recovery img, just follow the tuto again and make sure to follow each step.
Here is a guide made by mike: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
I have done that. Tried a few times. I am fairly "in the know" with rooting ect, but I just can't figure this out.

Did you reboot after flashing the recovery or did you just go straight into it? I had the same problem and what fixed it is rebooting after flashing the recovery 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'.

Tried that to.
When I press perm root, it just reboots normal like recovery doesn't even exist.
Have you tried flashing stock recovery and trying to boot in it? I know that doesn't fix anything, I am just curious if your device will actually boot into any recovery state at all. I have read on XDA about some devices not being able to boot into recovery for some reason.
Here's the stock recovery, just in case: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38504123
Okay give me a shot at that.
I noticed after flashing recovery, mine doesn't tampered like it should?
The stock recovery says it's not available anymore.
If it doesn't say TAMPERED then the recovery must have not been flashed to begin with and that is why it's not booting into it. Which recovery are you trying to install? I use TWRP 2.5.0 and I flashed it with fastboot then restarted and it booted fine. My device is S-ON, by the way, and running Trickdroid 7.5.
US Developer Edition Recovery: http://d-h.st/b5g
T-Mobile Recovery: https://www.dropbox.com/s/hvs38223dfrzsny/recovery_tmobile.img
I am not sure if either one will work with your device since I am guessing it's international? But they might be worth a shot.
Never mind, I found the stock international recovery for you: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22045273/htc1-stock-recovery.img it was on page 4 of the thread. Give it a go.
I flashed the stock recovery and it still boots like there is no recovery there. and it doesn't say "tampered"
This is crap
EDIT: Yeah I figured it's not being flashed since it's not tampered, but no matter what I try it won't flash.
I'm navigating to the folder: CD C:\One_All-In-One_Kit_v\Data\Recoveries then typing fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and it doesn't work.
It says it's flashed ect, but doesn't boot into it, nore show tampered.
This is very weird and unfortunately I do not know the solution to that. I do not use the All-In-One-Kit, actually, but just a mini-SDK with fastboot files inside. I use shift + right click and "open command prompt window here" rather than navigate to the location, it's just much easier that way. Can you try flashing the latest TWRP recovery?

I just downloaded TWRP and flashed it ( fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ) it said all the jabber, like it worked, rebooted and still no "tampered" just reboots like nothing ever happen.
I give up.
Would ADB be any better?
Ugh man that's horrible. I honestly do feel your frustration because I have faced similar situations with my HTC devices (One X and One) countless times, and it sucks because you know the correct steps yet it's not working. I sure hope someone knowledgeable about this can come in and help you. Best of luck.
EDIT: I have only used ADB to sideload a ROM but I don't know about flashing recoveries. If you know how to do it, then why not? It's worth a shot for sure.
EDIT #2: And if you're not familiar with ADB, this article should get you started: http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
Make sure you follow all the steps to the word and also install HTC Sync Manager for the proper drivers to be loaded.
I know right, driving me nuts.
I've never done adb to flash a recovery before but don't know if I would want to be the pidgeon to try lol

I am quite up there with adb, but not with flashing recovery with a HTC device lol.
There seems to be another method for flashing recoveries besides fastboot.
http://androidforums.com/cdma-evo-3...lash-recovery-image-via-fastboot-sd-card.html
This is an HTC Evo section but it could work for the One as well, although I am not sure of it. I have done some Googling and I did not come across any articles/threads saying that it is possible to flash a recovery using ADB, so that might not be possible.
Hello guys, I really messed up my phone.
I was trying to relock, and unroot my phone but it didnt go as planned.
Long story short, I cannot flash ANYTHING through CWM or TWRP (latest versions) and none of my files shows up in either of these recoveries. When i push a file through adb i get an error code on both. I believe that CWM said it cannot mount E:/SD Card.
I also have nothing to bootup to (bootloop)
I really need my phone and any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yeah, has happened to me too, I had to send in to get fixed, been 3 weeks so far.
Have a read over the forums for mine and others same issue, there are tips on how to fix but this is becoming very common at the moment, I can not offer any suggestions because everything i did did not work
Good luck

Okay well that rules out the simple.
Now lets see if i understand the situation correctly. If you try to boot into system all you get is a CM bootloop and custom recovery's show an empty sdcard? You say adb commands dont work but have you tried fastboot commands in fastboot mode yet?
Try:
fastboot devices
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-recovery
Dude - he's done a factory reset from the bootloader which has wiped his virtual sd card. You basically need to format it back into a fat32 partition so the adb side load will work.

I've done this before a long time ago now myself and was able to fix it because I could still boot into my rom and windows would offer to format it for me.

It's for a One XL but the principle is the same as they both use Virtual SD Cards.
Make sure you're in the bootloader go into fastboot
Download the stock recovery from this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/v7byetxqc2ogzqq/recovery144.img
Make sure the downloaded image is in the same folder as your fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery recovery144.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Go into bootloader and then choose Factory Reset - let that finish running
Go into fastboot
fastboot flash recovery <custom recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you can go into recovery and try sideloading a rom and then flashing it.

If you still need help, I wrote this guide for you and anyone else who is confused.
Now that you have unlocked the bootloader follow these steps.
1. Boot into the bootloader by pressing volume down + power.
2. Press the power button to enter fastboot.
3. Make sure that beneath the first few lines on the top of the screen it says fastboot usb highlighted in red.
4. Find a version of TWRP, WCX, or whatever recovery image you are going to use and then extract it into the folder on your computer.
5. In CMD, type this:
fastboot flash recovery "name of the file.img"
6. Press [bootloader] to go back to the main menu (without the brackets).
7. Scroll down with the volume button to recovery.
8. Boot into recovery.
If your recovery works, do this to use a custom rom.
9. Go back into the bootloader by turning your phone off and then using power + volume down.
10. Download a custom rom and open up the .zip file. Then, extract the file named boot.img and extract it into the folder on your computer.
11. Enter fastboot and type this into CMD:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
12. Go back into your recovery (following the steps above from 6-8). Mount your internal SD card and put on the file of the custom rom you wish to use onto your storage. Be sure to copy the file in .zip format, not after it has been extracted.
If your custom rom needs Google Apps, then download the correct file which should be specified in the download area of your rom's post.
13. Go back into the main menu of your recovery and then choose the option to flash the file.
14. Choose the file that you have just loaded onto your storage.
15. Flash Google Apps if you need it.
16. Thank me if it worked
works like a charm:laugh:

If you still need help, I wrote this guide for you and anyone else who is confused.
Now that you have unlocked the bootloader follow these steps.
1. Boot into the bootloader by pressing volume down + power.
2. Press the power button to enter fastboot.
3. Make sure that beneath the first few lines on the top of the screen it says fastboot usb highlighted in red.
4. Find a version of TWRP, WCX, or whatever recovery image you are going to use and then extract it into the folder on your computer.
5. In CMD, type this:
fastboot flash recovery "name of the file.img"
6. Press [bootloader] to go back to the main menu (without the brackets).
7. Scroll down with the volume button to recovery.
8. Boot into recovery.
If your recovery works, do this to use a custom rom.
9. Go back into the bootloader by turning your phone off and then using power + volume down.
10. Download a custom rom and open up the .zip file. Then, extract the file named boot.img and extract it into the folder on your computer.
11. Enter fastboot and type this into CMD:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
12. Go back into your recovery (following the steps above from 6-8). Mount your internal SD card and put on the file of the custom rom you wish to use onto your storage. Be sure to copy the file in .zip format, not after it has been extracted.

13. Go back into the main menu of your recovery and then choose the option to flash the file.
14. Choose the file that you have just loaded onto your storage.
15. Flash Google Apps if you need it.
16. Thank me if it worked

Nah, used the search function to find this thread and others. Thats how I wound up here. But anyways thanks for the info.
Hi guys. Was just trying to install a 4.4 custom rom on my HTC One using CWM. I got into rrecovery mode and started trying to install the rom but it came up with an error saying it had aborted. I realised I hadn't made a backup so I thought I best do it in case anything goes wrong. I tried doing that and rebooting the phone. Now the HTC logo flashes on screen before flashing off and then the phone puts me back in recovery. Have I bricked this phone? If anyone can help me I can answer any more necessary questions.

You need TWRP 2.6.3.3 (or later) for 4.4 roms, also if you are using a GPE rom, then you need to be s-off.
Download from here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7 don't use a download manager, it will fail; download normally and check MD5 to make sure file is not corrupt,
go to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB, and flash it:
fastboot flash openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and install the ROM again.

from you PC
open a command prompt, go to the folder where adb is (also put the downloaded recovery there), then on your PC, type commands in bold above.

Again, rreally sorry. Where will I find ADB? Where would it typically be?
EDIT: I've downloaded minimal ADB and Fastboot and out the recovery image in there. I've tried typing in the top command but had no luck. A little more help, please? Thank you for your help so far by the way

wherever you put it, didnt you unlock your phone using "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"? that would be the folder (often referred to the adb sdk)

Sorry I'm just panicking an awful lot. I'm a bit calmer now though so I'll crack on. I've got TWRP back up and I've tried to install the ROM but it keeps saying failed. Is therre any way to make my phone available to transfer to so I can try a different ROM?
EDIT: It seems I did make a backup with TWRP, I'm assuming that wouldn't show up on CWM? That seems to be working so I'll count myself lucky. I would very much like to get stock android 4.4 though so do you know of any detailed guides for getting that with TWRP on HTC one?
By the way THANK YOU SO MUCH for everything. I completely panicked and I would never have figured any of this out without your help. Thank you.

Unfortunately, TWRP and CWM backups aren't interchangeable but you can always flash back the proper recovery for the backup, and restore.
