[Q] Stock Recovery Partition Missing? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just curious, does anyone have a dump of the recovery partition for the Dev Edition? It looks like from a bit of reading is that the recovery partition doesn't seem to be present.
I am unable to use recovery mode properly since it saids invalid operation when I do apply from SD, storage or cache, followed by the phone automatically restarting.
Has anyone else noticed this? I wonder if the unlocked 32 GB versions is unaffected.

try to reflash the recovery, the partitions should be the same as the original One

I tried to do that by using the RUU and using the zip, but it did not bring it back.
Is there a way to get the recovery image itself? I tried to extract the zip but it looked like it's encrypted as I cannot do so.
Looks like one mike1986 mentioned it's missing as well.

1. Well, I decided not to mention some things to avoid confusion. At the moment unlocking bootloader removes content of /data/preload partition, so indeed, installing OTA will fail. But I truly hope that HTC will fix it at some point and unlocking bootloader won't cause some stock apps to be missing.
2. Which procedure?

as i though, mmmhh, unzipping the file breaks the signature.... well then you need to download a stock nandroid backup and inside of it you will fina a recovery.zip... just flash it and you're ready to go

Hmm, I'm beginning to wonder if the stock recovery is suppose to work like that, where if I try to apply storage, sd card, or cache it saids invalid operation and reboot. The reason is, a new HTC One S my relative got she her phone is being replaced for free under warranty... I go to the recovery and do those certain the apply stuff, it also saids invalid operation out and restarts!
I find this a bit interesting on my HTC One when I go to the recovery and wondering the failed mount SD card messages is normal.

It's A twrp backup which is flashable using fastboot... I have done it so many times, hope people are flashing the fastboot way?

The only time bootloader is going to Sig check a recovery partition is if he is relocked. He said he used the ruu a couple times so he is still relocked.

[Q] Flashing Hboot - Answered!

I see that most CM7's require the new hboot. I have flashed, pushed, fastbooted, just about anything you can do with ADB and am quite comfortable with it but i can't find anywhere the instructions on just "how to" flash the new hboot to the N1. Is it as easy as placing the zip on the sd and flashing through recovery or is there more to it? I even tried looking in the Wiki and it showed the newest hboot but not how to flash. Thanks in advance!!
I thought it was possible to flash from recovery but after some digging around i'm not so sure now. Best to check with somebody who has done this
I flashed new hboot using cw recovery just this morning. No worries.
Thanks for the reply!

I think what they are saying is you can flash that .zip through clockwork and not worry about fastboot. Try that and let me know if that works for you.
just disable verification check and then flash. worked for me
Just in the process of rooting the phone... just rooted it and about to install RA recovery.. guess I'll flash it through that
Just tried to flash in RA Recovery got the following:
Code:
Install:d6096cac5e9f.signed.hboot-0.35.0017.zip?
Press Trackball to confirm,
any other key to abort.
Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:No signature (8 files)
E: Verification failed
Zip verification failed!
Zip isn't signed correctly!
Installation aborted.
Surely if the thing is signed then there shouldn't be a problem with the signature?
Check the md5 on the file...

Try this in AR recovery and see if you can flash then.
In AR recovery main menu select flash zip, then in that menu under "select zip" is toggle verification. Select that once and you will get a warning that unsinged zip can corrupt. then you can choose "select zip" and flash the hboot zip from the sd card.

[Q] HBoot only, no RUU available -- recoverable?

Attempted my first root and ROM flash.
Followed HTC Holiday Superguide instructions (I did skip the S-OFF bit) then tried to flash CyanogenMod 10 using these instructions. Got stuck on the CyanogenMod flash screen. Don't quite remember what I did in my panicked attempts to recover. I did relock the bootloader at some point.
Now the phone continually boots to HBoot.
Can't find the RUU I need anywhere (Telstra 3.44.841.3).
Should I return to Apple in shame having found myself not man enough for rooted Androids? Or can someone help me regain some self-respect?

Okay so you no longer have a custom recovery installed ? Is your HBOOT still locked ? If it is still locked unlock it and Flash TWRP or WCX recovery and see if you can boot into recovery.

It is still locked, but can I flash TWRP or WCX without having access to the phone's internal SD card through Windows? I don't know how to get them on there without that (when I connect the phone to my PC, I don't get the option anymore).

No SDCARD ?
Either way you can have the recovery saved to some place on your PC and flash it to the phone. In HBOOT you should select fastboot USB and this will allow you to send fastboot commands to the phone. EX fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to flash a recovery.

Your set.. you should be able to flash your rom of choice and fastboot flash boot boot.im (I'm assuming your not S-OFF) and then the phone will boot up like it should. The boot.img file will be located in the ROM zip but you may have to push modules around to get wifi to work depending on the ROM.

The only fix is to use a deodexed ROM...

Hello All,
I am stuck on the recovery screen unable to boot as it says no os installed. i have tried to download the stock rom for HTC Desire 510 but it is not giving any error message and is not installing as well.
Can you please help me in getting it up and running.
in the background, i formatted the internal storage and lost the os partition as well. Was stuck on the no system screen and then installed the TWRP recovery. I can boot in rocovery but not able to install any roms.

Thanks a ton, downloading it and will update if I can get my device to work.
Hello,
Can you please let me how you created the backup I tried TWRP to restore it but it does not see the backup file.

That usually happens when your bootloader is locked.
I did unlock it, it says tampered unlocked I did it from the HTCDEV website. Any directions where I should be headed...

you can try downloading the recovery that's in this forum. there's also a TWRP backup you should download too. make a folder on your SD card called TWRP, and inside that folder create a folder called BACKUPS, and inside that folder create another folder called FA4AJSR06068 and inside that folder place the downloaded backup.
put the recovery in the platform tools folder. rename it to *recovery*.img without the asterisks.
enter command 'fastboot boot recovery recovery.img'
it should boot in twrp recovery from there.
from there go to restore. and pick the backup you put there.
This is a suggestion and might not even work.
good luck
Tried it, it just does not see any folders or files when i hit the recovery button after going into the TWRP Recovery

ok try deleting the file structure i told you to build before, boot the recovery again the way i told you and do a backup of your phone as it is now. that should build the file structure for you on the sd card. then go in and place the backup in the core of it.
Thanks a ton, my phone is alive again. Doing the backup and replacing it with files in the zip worked.
