Flash TWRP img from Fastboot like the first time
Or copy your TWRP img file to the phone, its Internal memory, navigate to that img file from OrangeFox, select the file and take install to Recovery partition

[Q] Cannot root my One

I have unlocked my bootloader via htcdev.
I have flashed CWM, CWMT and TWRP. I could never get TWRP to boot, but I can get CWM and CWMT to boot.
Once in recovery, I go to choose zip to install and I can only browse a few locations such as /0, /audio /Android /video. There are maybe like 6 folders in total. I cannot browse to sdcard or mount sdcard. How can I get my SuperSU zip into one of these folders?
Or....why is it only mounting /system?
I even tried fastboot flash boot recovery.img (DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME FOLKS) so I would boot st8 into recovery and it still mounts the same folders.

I had to flash TWRP twice before it took. Don't know why. I also had some issues with rooting so I let TWRP do it for. Figured since they released their new version first for the ONE it should work and it did. All you have to do is go to reset once you get into TWRP and it will ask if you want to root. Pretty nifty if you ask me
LOL guess what I just realized?! I have the Sprint version, which has a different TWRP version and forum LOLZ!

[Q] How Do I change CWM to TWRP

Hey guys, i just bought this HTC One, and it had CWM pre-installed.
I have downloaded GooManager, and Installed Recovery via "Install Open Recovery Script" inside the app.
However each time I boot into Recovery I keep getting CWM. What am i missing here? Please help! Thank you!
CWM pre-installed? Was it pre-owned as well? Don't flash through GooManager, I read that there is a compatibility issue with the new TWRP. Just download the TWRP img file, go into fastboot then plug in your USB cable. It should now say Fastboot USB. Type :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.img
<--- xxxxx is the file name of the TWRP image. You can just rename the file to twrp.img for easier typing
Then type :
Code:
fastboot erase cache
That's it

Download and place Aroma File Manager in sd card.
Boot up a custom recovery by:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Then flash the aroma zip file from the recovery and do it
Yes it is possible.
Just edit the fstab and init.rc first, or use my pre-modified TWRP 2.8.5.0 here
Additionally, you can backup and restore your IMEI, just in case.

What I do?

I was on Oreo then I go to twrp make clean wipe
Then I flashed stock recovery but I forgot rename rom to update.zip ...how I can install ROM on my device pls help me.
How I can access my phone's internal storage .
1st Alternative : You can just reflash TWRP from fastboot and rename using TWRP's file manager. Then you can re-flash stock recovery from twrp itself.
2nd Alternative: If you have access to ADB in recovery, try this ADB file manager utility:

Magisk and TWRP not working as aspected

H there,
TWRP and Magisk are not wot working as aspected.
First I tried to flash TWRP by
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
but received
Code:
(bootloader) Invalid partition name recovery
So I had to just boot it
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
After that I "installed recory image" in TWRP itself. But when I try to boot into recovery it get stuck. So i had to do
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
again.
Any ideas what i did wrong or how to solve this?
Then I installed Magisk. To do that I had to drop an boot.img file, let the Magisk-App creates an pahteched version of it and than, back in bootloader
Code:
fastboot boot magisk_patched...img
Now i have root access. But when rebooting regularly the Magisk-App has no root and so all the other apps also not. So i had to boot that img again.
That CAN'T be the right way.
Thx in advance!
It's probably because you have A/B partitions on your device. To flash it successfully you'll need TWRP 3.5.0+. You can learn more about why is it so different from this XDA article.
You can check if your device supports A/B partitions through this app.
Follow this guide on how to flash it on A/B partitions, you can get TWRP from here (Beckham) or here (Addison).
Goodluck.
