Help installing recovery! (TWRP) - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

Ok I've been flashing roms with the default htc recovery without a problem until now that requires me to switch over to TWRP to flash a pacman rom. I thought it would be a quick install with flashing a zip but TWRP doesn't do that for this device. Im trying to install this recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592671 but the latest version http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/76 It says to install with the GOO MANAGER. I can't install that because they got rid of that app because of the new servers. I want to manually flash it with fastboot but I really don't know how to do that with the recovery.img. I've tried the TWRP app but that didnt do anything because it is too buggy. Can anyone help me?
NVM I GOT IT!!!

[Q] Can't flash any CWM through TWRP

I don't remember if I deleted it or what but I only have TWRP 2.6.1 on my device as a recovery and I would like to reinstall CWM on my device. However, every "flashable" CWM zip I have tried through TWRP has failed and I'm not sure why. Don't nwant to brick my device and don't necessarily want to WebOS doctor it if I can avoid it, as my device has run fairly well (I am on 4.2.2). Any/all help is appreciated. Thanks!
I'm guessing that TWRP doesn't support flashing another recovery from it. Have you tried flashing recovery image from fastboot?

Not yet, although I managed to get a workable CWM running by moving an image to the boot folder and then updating to the latest working version (couldn't get the "touch" version to work via touch, however).
However, I may try flashing via fastboot if something unexpected happens. Thanks for the help

[Q] Install TWRP over CWM

HEy Guys, i just wanted to Install the flashable zip of the newest TWRP over the current CWM. It said okay, but i still get the CWM Recovery. The App Rom Manager says that my current recovery is TWRP, but it isnt, i only get to CWM.
Im not into that stuff like adbfiles or fastboot mode, this is to hard for me to try.
Isnt there another option to get TWRP running?
thanks
Should not be flashing the phone if adb/ fastboot is too hard

Dude go 2 fastboot. Then flash the twrp file the same way u did when u first installed cwm after unlocking the bootloader(using command prompt). There might b a flashable zip directly, but I wud advise u use the fast boot method.
Dont flash. Use fastboot.
Put the recovery file in your SDK root on your computer and hook up your phone
Go to fastboot in bootloader
Then
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip
Another option is Flashify app on play store. Flash recovery with that without the adb hassle.
problem in recovery verion
hi guys..... my problem is ia install kikat 4.4 on old recovery version.and make factory reset.and now i cann't connect mobile on pc.how can i install another recovery version now...thanks to all

[Q] Hboot 1.57 OS 5.11.401.10 reboot loop

Hi,
I just got a brand new HTC One 7 (WWE, CID E_11) after my last one died. Im trying to root it and install a custom recovery to install arhd or insertcoin. I used htc one toolkit for this. Everything seemed to work ok, but after booting the installed rom (ARHD or insertcoin) the phone reboots after i see the login screen. I somehow managed to reinstall my phone again yesterday, as it was a complete (soft) brick.
I used this to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759000
Now does anyone know why I get a reboot loop? Does anyone know if i installed this stock rom if I get the normal OTA updates again? And do i need to relock the bootloader for this? I would really like to install stock roms again but I'm a little anxious after yesterday. (I've installed custom roms since the old HD2/HTC desire, and also on my old HTC One M7, never had any problems, I think it has to do with the Hboot).
Hoping to hear from you guys,
best wishes,
Olaf

Flash the stock firmware 5.11.401.10! I think your firmware is mismatched.
By flashing the firmware after installing the Rom I might fix the bootloop? Or is the stock firmware necesarry to go back to stock? Sorry bit confused, thanks for your response btw

Flashing the firmware might fix the boot-loop, since you flashed the stock rom! If it does stop the boot-loops, you can re-install TWRP or CWM to get the custom recovery.

when using a sense custom rom you need to make sure you use twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery, do not use the toolkits, most of the time they are out of date and not updated, this would explain the bootloops, take the time to learn how to use adb and fastboot, you'll never look back.
nothing to do with the firmware and no need to flash it, if your firmware was knackered, you would have a hard brick.

First of all thanks for the quick response. I know how to use adb and fastboot (at least I think).
If i would (in this order) do the following, would that be correct?:
unlock using htdev
Flash twrp 2.6.3.3 using fastboot command: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (naming twrp 2.6.3.3.img = recovery.img)
reboot bootloader
Flash SuperSU.zip in TWRP
reboot twrp
flash custom rom (ARHD).
The thing is it isn't a normal bootloop (which normally would come with the HTC logo all the time)
It reboots when I try to setup the phone (in the setup menu). Restoring the phone with the link in the OP, ive recoverd my phone, but I would still love to use custom roms again.

unlock using HTC Dev
flash TWRP 2.6.3.3
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
enter recovery
no need to flash super user it will be included in the rom you flash
flash custom rom, or stock reset rom, if its not rooted, twrp will ask you if you would like to root upon exit.

It seems that insertcoin had a problem in it's installer:
http://insertcoin-roms.org/category/devices/one_m7/one_sense6/
the changelog says: Fixed SuperSU install (might solve the sudden reboot issue in SetupWizard)
It left me without any rom to install, so i had to sideload ARHD, which it didnt want to install via sideload... The next step I isntalled stock again, which I'm using right now.. but I miss xposed framework and other tweaks too much..
I'm gonna try to unlock it again this afternoon and install insertcoin again, but this time ill make a backup first. Does installing the recovery wipe anything?

no it doesn't wipe anything, but you can use xposed and its tweaks on stock rom, you just need to root first, just install TWRP, enter recovery and again upon exit it will offer to root stock rom for you.

Flash a ROM via Fastboot

Hello,
I've got a HTC One which is having trouble. When I flash teh latest TWRP or CWM recovery it says ''Entering Recovery'' goes black screen then goes back to Entering Recovery''. But when I install the old version of TWRP it works??
Anyway... I've deleted everything via TRWP by mistake so I've no ROM installed. I'm trying to push the zip but no luck, so I'm wondering If I can flash a ROM via ''Fastboot'' instead of installing through ''Recovery''

You can't flash a rom from fastboot, only in recovery mode. The only thing you can flash in fastboot mode are RUU, Firmware and recovery.
What os the recovery version that was booting fine? What version of TWRP are you trying to install now? What rom do you want to flash? Do you have erased cache and rebooted the bootloaded after flashing the recovery?

You get an error when installing app from playstore?
And about recovery,
Get "twrp-3.0.2-rXX-fota-huashan.zip" from here.
Extract it,
Flash the .img via fastboot mode,
Reboot your device, it'll boot directly into TWRP.
Flash the "twrp-3.0.2-rXX-fota-huashan.zip" again from there, this will install TWRP in the FOTA partition.
Then flash another ROM/ Restore any backup.
