[Q] Recovery Leads to Reboot to Stock - Sprint HTC One (M7)

xda-Developers,
I've been a long time lurker, I love what you guys do here! Now, I've come across a problem I can't fix on my own. So here we are .
I've got my Sprint HTC One unlocked and have successfully loaded the ClockworkMod recovery image onto the device. When I select Recovery from the Fastboot menu, the device reboots and I receive the "Entering Recovery..." splash screen. After a few seconds of this screen, the device shuts off.
I have the same problem when I attempt to do a factory reset.
I've attempted to get around this by loading previous versions of the ClockworkMod image, but none have worked so far.
Any assistance or thoughts would be appreciated!
-Jon

Are you sure the recovery is correct for the sprint variant? Here you can get the latest CWM for sprint http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2238324
You can also try TWRP which is also more popular http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236620

Nice! So CWM was a failure, but using the .img file from TWRP's website has gotten me to where I need to be!
Thank you very much!

[Q] CWM Won't Boot

Hello, I've recently rooted friends my Vivid using the Superguide.
For some reason I am unable to boot his device into CWM at all. I've tried reflashing the recovery through fastboot, tried booting into HBoot and restoring the stock PH39IMG.zip both with no success. As soon as I select the recovery option from hboot it shows the CWM screen for a split second, reboots, and immediately displays the HTC logo forever.
Im currently download the Holiday RUU for the vivid to try and fix it.
If anyone knows how to fix this please help!
Thanks

Edit: thanks again, worked wonderfully.
Thank you it worked pefectly. I own said vivid in op.

[Q] HTC One rooting issue - aka cant get recovery to boot!

Hello everyone! I was attempting to root my HTC One on Sprint, and I successfully completed unlocking the bootloader following the instructions found on htcdev.com. The next step (correct me if im wrong) is to flash a recovery.
I attempted (using fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) to flash ClockworkMod, ClockworkMod Touch, TWRP, and even a (supposed) original recovery img. However, each time, it fails to load the recovery. What happens is the phone shows 'Booting Recovery...', then simply goes black, never to turn on.
In order to get the phone usable, I have to hold down the power button for ten seconds and then boot it back to android. Any ideas on what's causing this?

My first question are you sure it says unlocked in hboot?
have you tried the tool they made?

Just an FYI.. You would have had more people helping if you posted in the Q/A.

Yeah, I have tried Hasoon2000's tool, but no change. I wonder, would a factory reset help?
When you try to send ity does it say .. sending? and done or does it give you an error message.
Hey, turns out I had been using Hasoon's Toolkit for the One, not the One on Sprint! It installed TWRP like a charm! Thank you! I had been stuck for weeks on this!
Cool.. Glad you figured it out... have fun flashing!!

[Q] After flashing TWRP 2.6.1.0 recovery hangs

While attempting to root my device I flashed the recovery successfully with twrp 2.6.1.0 via fastboot terminal on my PC. Device booted to "HTC quietly brilliant" white screen and then does not progress beyond that point. I rebooted into recovery and using TWRP i installed the superuser.zip and it completed successfully. I then reboot again, but does not progress past the "HTC quietly brilliant" white screen (with developer message in red letters at bottom of screen). Device does not progress past this point, I have left for up to 20 min and simply does not proceed.
I am new to the community and probably did some noob mistake, just don't know where. Do I need to flash a ROM? I can reboot into fastboot or recovery, but no OS loads.
I seem to remember seeing here that you need to use 2.5 because 2.6... doesn't work............
flashed TWRP 2.5.0.0 no luck
I re-flashed successfully from 2.6 to 2.5 variant and still same response. I don't have any idea where to go from here.
some success...

Some progress......flashed TWRP 2.5 via fastboot --> sideloaded stock ROM_deodexed 1.31.XXX and was successful at getting phone to boot properly.
Only problem I have noticed at this point is that my gallery keeps crashing when loading my photos, but everything else seems fine. Not a big deal, but when using Zoe mode it saves each frame as a separate photo and can be difficult to navigate efficiently.

[Q] Freezing after startup on any ROM, please help!

I have the HTC Vivid on stock firmware until recently it started to shut down by itself, so I decided to try some roms. I unlocked the bootloader, and then installed the clockworkmod recovery. It remained on S-ON. I tried the cyanogenmod 10, MIUI, and bunch of other roms, they all freeze after starting up, like as soon as I can see the initial set-up screen. It goes past the boot. Sometimes I even have time to go into the launcher and click on things before it freezes. Then after a few seconds it reboots. I tried to run RUU, but it fails as well. Any ideas what should I do?

Yes, I did flash boot.img from extracted zip of the rom. I also tried TWRP recovery, same result.

[Q] Help! Attempted to install custom rom, now phone is bootlooping.

Hi Guys
Ever since i did the stock 4.4.2 update my phone has become unusable (being out of warranty I decided to take matters into my own hands)
I rooted my One (M7) and flashed TWRP recovery onto it with success, from there I wiped it and tried to install a custom 4.3 ROM. TWRP flagged up the install with another 'success' and told me to reboot the phone. After the reboot it got stuck on the HTC splash screen and after frustration I hard reset the phone thinking I could just try installing another ROM, wrong!
I can't get into recovery, when I select it the phone attempts to start recovery and then reboots and gets stuck on the HTC splash screen again, I can't do anything other than get into fastboot at the moment.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm new to this and although I have a pretty decent computer knowledge I've always left my mobile stock. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm using TWRP 2.6.3.0 and the rom is called 'Stock w Goodies 2.10' found here .
Sorry I'm not at home at the moment but I'll update this later when I'm able to post the fastboot results.
