hey guys i am new to rooting, unlocking, and installing custom roms, i have one problem i am bootloader unlocked and rooted but when i go to install a custom recovery, it tells me in the command window that it was successful but when i go to enter it, all i see is the htc logo and it says entering recovery but after 10 seconds on the screen the phone shuts off and does it every time, does anyone think im doing something wrong. iu really am stuck on this one and i tried to install both types of recovery.. maybe the root didnt work?????
You don't need root (super user) to flash the recovery. Try again. Make sure htc drivers are installed and the phone is recognized by the computer. Also, you may have had a bad download of the recoveries. Try downloading again. I just used the files from the sticky Q&A thread and my recovery install was very quick and painless. Good luck.

Thank you.. I will try again.. hopefully it was just the download... Both of them came as zip files from different sources but I will def try... I don't have to remove them from the phone after trying to download the bad ones though?

Long hold power and volume down. It should eventually take you to bootloader where you can select boot to recovery and restore a backup. If you don't have one, do an adb sideload of a known working Rom .

TWRP Recovery is really nice I actually kinda like it better than 4ext although i was completely thrown off by the wipe menu which had cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, system. Nothing a google search couldnt solve though

So like an idiot I completley wiped the phone and my recovery using TWRP. I can still access TWRP and the OEM HBOOT/FASTBOOT menu but I deleted the OS. I tried to restore using RUU but the program is not recognizing the phone. The computer does recognize the phone though. I'm just suck on the "F" boot logo. Any ideas?

okay I was able to get back and perform the most updated RUU. I was back to stock rom everything working okay. I tried to unlock the bootloader using the HTCDEV.com method which works as fastboot shows bootloader unlocked but it puts the phone into a boot loop. Any ideas to fix the boot loop after unlocking bootloader?

Hi everybody!
I bought my new phone a week ago, It's a developer edition
I did all the regular phases:
Charged my phone till the LED was green
Turn it on and started the HTC file transfer tool
Entered my Gmail account
and then it got stuck, started a reboot loop not pasing the splash screen
I can get to the bootloader but more than that nothing
I read a lot of threads, tried them and none of them could help...
I was hoping someone would help me
I would like to keep the phone and not give it back
thanks and sorry it was so long!

The best I can think of is to flash another rom. Every time I have bricked my device, flashing the correct ROM has worked for me. Since your device is new and you have used the right RUU, I guess there is something wrong with the device.
You can consult nearby service center or call the helpline no. If there is a software bug they can fix it. They won't charge much for that.
EDIT: I just remembered that to restore from ruu the bootloader must be locked.

I think you might have flashed a wrong recovery (for M7WLS)
try this recovery: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
better to md5 check both your rom and recovery before you flash them.
Make sure the rom is for M7_UL variant.
Lets hope your partitions are not screwed...

You have everything here, i mean everything all your question are here, use search write your error and thats it..
Your frimware must be correct recovery etc, if you dont know what version firmware or recovery you need, open topic with rom and there must be instalation tip.
You are loosing your time when you waiting here for answer.

TWRP recovery 2.7.0.1 is probably the M7WLS version not for your phone!
I don't know any 2.7.0.1 version for the M7_UL
So flashing a stable twrp version for your variant is the best move atm (2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4)
then try to flash your rom again
clear cache and hopefully it will boot
I know your not being rude mate just i had this phone for 4 days and 3 of them.days I've been stuck with it just need get it working again I've said my problem.and done as people have asked me I spent first day searching for help with this prob and never found any hence why I'm asking for help coz I've got myself stuck
