Please advice which method should i follow.

That part doesn't matter as long as the final output is "okay" you will be able to boot into recovery

Wait you say g5s?
you cant boot into recovery from the phone you have to do fastboot boot [recovery img name].img or else youll get a kernel error
also you have to do something with twrp while youre in it or your device wont boot once you leave it. in order to fix that go to the bootloader and flash the stock recovery img and youll be set

take the battery out
put battery back in
hold PWR+Vol-
Does bootloader start? If so, good.
Select fastboot, and plug your phone in
Flash your ROM's boot.img
Select bootloader
Select Recovery
Does recovery start? If so, good.
Wipe data, cache, dalvik cache
Flash ROM
If something didn't work, let us know where it went wrong
Thanks homeslice976 for your advice.
I actually got a ics rom from the forums and got my phone working again. It seems to be a problem to all people using the toolkit
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498003&highlight=white&page=17
so a warning to all people with ota ics trying to get permroot, wait a bit for hasoon2000 to update his toolkit
fixed "stuck at HTC logo" issue
It appears to me that hasoon2000's tool is running the wrong batch file when you try to install CWM. Instead of pushing the CWM recovery, it is pushing the Holicakes boot.img file, which causes the phone to freeze at the white screen with the HTC logo upon reboot.
I tried pushing the stock boot.img file from Data\Kernels to the phone, with no success. Not sure if it is the wrong file, or if somethig else is the cause
I did manage to resolve the issue though, and this is what I did to fix it.
1. Reboot phone into fastboot mode and connect to USB
2. run "fastboot oem lock" to re-lock the bootloader
3. reboot back into fastboot
4. Download and run the latest stock RUU from HTC.
From here, you should be back up and running the stock firmware, with a locked bootloader and no recovery. To install CWM recovery, you first need to unlock the bootloader again.
1. Boot into fastoot
2. run "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"
3. reboot back to fastboot
4. flash CWM with "fastboot flash recovery Recovery/recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img"
I ran all these commands with a command prompt inside the Data directory of hasoon2000's application.
Hope this helps others out there.
same thing
where did you get the latest stock ruu from hyc at i have been to their dev site and cannot find it for the life of me I have tried useing what i think is the old rom ph39img.zip and it tell me it cannot update due to it being the old version. i need the new stock ICS rom to flash and restore to factory, any hepl would be great.

thank you very much, my understanding is that it will boot at this point and run just fine but i have no recovery files, i need to unock my phone described earlier and run cwm manualy...correct? If i do not run these recovery files what if any problems will this cause.

You will have a recovery, it will be the HTC recovery. You would have to use fast boot commands to run cwm. It won't cause any problems if you don't do cwm. It is optional.
Looks like the toolkit was updated fyi

I apologize in advance if this has been answered already.
Before you ask:
My bootloader is unlocked
My phone is bricked due to an update that caused processes and apps to crash and make the factory reset on stock recovery useless so I tried to downgrade from lollipop to kitkat. My aim is to see if a custom recovery will format the phone properly so that flashing the stock firmware works. I think it isn't working because my userdata and cache partitions may be corrupted or something because this is what I get when I try factory reset on stock recovery:
E: blkdiscard on partition /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata failed and E: blkdiscard on partition /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/cache failed.
I am thinking that I need a custom recovery but when I flash one and try and boot into recovery I end up with the stock recovery and no errors are given during the flash and the pink text that says "mismatched partition size" doesn't show up. When I run "fastboot erase all" it completes with no errors but doesn't seem to do anything so could fastboot be at fault? When I try booting it with "fastboot boot recovery.img" all i get is the Motorola logo flickering every second or so. Unless I can fix my phone without a custom recovery, I need help!!!
If any more information is needed I will try to provide but am somewhat of a noob. All responses are appreciated. Thanks
You need mfastboot to flash a stock firmware

Whats the difference between fastboot and mfastboot?

I have been using mfastboot for both the firmware flash and for the custom recovery flash
I am having the same issue as well. I flash a custom recovery ... it says it flashes ok but I cannot enter recovery.
I too was getting the blinking Motorola logo. Had to power off and then turn back on to get the phone to boot up. I cannot relock my bootloader either !
This all happened when I returned to stock to get the official lollipop update. I was able to flash gpt.bin before that and flash recovery and everything but since I did the update I can't do much of anything.
I tried loading twrp just to get into it. That did work once but I don't know how it did it. I was able to do a backup and flash a custom rom but still can't get into twrp. I've tried fastboot and mfastboot many times over and still it says flash ok but I cannot enter twrp or any custom recovery.

I am thinking that I either need to flash an earlier version of twrp besides the 2860 that I'm trying to flash or relock then unlock the bootloader again, if I can. Not sure at this point but I'm going to continue to research and try something else.

Is it possible to put tempcwm.zip onto the internal memory so it can be booted through "apply update from sd card" as that is the next thing I'm going to try but don't know if it will be compatible. I tried to flash the lollipop firmware by xda member reefuge to see if that would do anything but it didn't. Perhaps it might work for you.

That's assuming you can get into any recovery !
I was able to "boot" into twrp using the Moto-G-2014-ToolKit. It appears to be rom related - "Quantum-OS. I just recently installed Candy5 and have no problems rebooting into recovery whether from the phone or from ADB command.
So.
I didn't you couldn't use OTA if you had custom recovery. Now I can't use my phone, because it boots for a little while then it reboot and tries to update -- to no avail -- everytime, in a loop.
I couldn't find a solution for the XT890.
Can anyone help me? Getting desperate here. =(

Use rsd-lite and one of the rsd-lite packages to restore your phone to stock. Or just flash the stock boot and system image through fastboot. Then it will most likely work again.
If u then want to flash the ota, just flash the stock recovery first.

I didn't use the OTA for this one. If you are trying to update to 4.4.2, there is a thread (which I will try to find the link for) containing a TWRP backup file that you can flash through TWRP.

There is also a tutorial there aswell, you can use recovery (TWRP, CWM) or you can use RSD-Lite to install.

You will need to unlock your bootloader first.. just search on google ''Motorola Unlock'' .. you''ll know what to click
After you unlocked your bootloader you can flash a custom recovery without problems.
Your warranty will be gone if you try the above so after the custom recovery you could just download Cyanogenmod..
If you have warranty and you have not rooted yet.. just take it back to the store
I'll be trying to help you if you have a problem
i have a Huawei P9 EVA-l09 and want it rooted, it's the first time i try this i am searching for over 5 hours now
and when I try to root with Kingroot it keeps failing every time?!
Got TWRP and SuperSU ready.
What to do?
If you have twrp but havent flashed it,put the recovery img in the same directory as adb and fastboot,rename the img file as twrp.img and then issue
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img.
Then hold up+power till the phone vibrates twice and you should be able to boot to twrp and do a backup.
After that its just a matter of installing supersu.zip from twrp.

Also you need to unlock the bootloader first before you can flash twrp
