Help needed- custom recovery - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was rooting my HTC ONE M7 and i unlocked the bootloader and thru cmd i flashed TWRP 2.5.0 and now it shows tampared and unlocked. And when i click on recovery it enters into TWRP recovery but i cannot operate it as it doest not work. It freezes and i cannot click on any button and i typed command in cmd "fastboot erase cache" to erase cache and still doesnt work and then i thought may be its an older version so i downloaded the latest version 2.6.3.0 and try to flash it thru cmd but evrytime i do it it says "error: cannot load 'openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-m7'.. I dont know what to do to root it and install twrp recovery..Pl help i would really apprecitae your efforts..
I have the latest hboot version 1.54 with 4.2.2. Thnaks

Sideload a custom recovery? What? Haha
Your phone has the updated touch drivers. That is why twrp won't work. Go to their thread. Redownload the newest version. Rename it TWRP.img. Make sure its in the same folder as your fastboot files. Hold shift and right click inside the folder. Select open command prompt here. Connect the phone while its in bootloader. "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img" "fastboot erase cache".
Good luck.

Just as it says in the OP:
Make sure fastboot is unchecked in power options and turn phone completely off
Boot into HBOOT then Fastboot
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

From your computer. (you are unlocked right?)
But since you're asking, (sorry no offense intended at ALL), have you familiarized yourself with the various guides for unlocking, custom firmware, rooting, flashing, etc.
I really recommend doing that before proceeding.
Also once you do flash the custom recovery, do a nandroid backup of your stock rom, in case you need it in the future.

no no, not s-off, just bootloader unlocked (using HTCdev), and since your already rooted and on a custom rom, you've obviously already done that.
You're good to flash the updated recovery as mentioned in the steps above.
Download the recovery img to your computer, and place it the same folder as your fastboot/adb commands are
then reboot your phone to bootloader
connect the phone to your PC, and on your phone it will read "FASTBOOT USB"
then on your PC run:
"fastboot erase cache"
"fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img"

yep, you need the sdk and also the drivers for your PC, a quick search through the forum or google will find you plenty of answers; there's also a toolkit here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183942
though I never use it myself, but it does contain the adb/fastboot commands in one of it's subfolders.

you should be fine, in the attached screenshot use the POWER button to enter FASTBOOT, once it says FASTBOOT where it now shows HBOOT, connect it to your PC.
it should then show as FASTBOOT USB (if it doesn't then you're missing the drivers on your PC, and have to reinstall them)
then just follow the steps on your PC:
"fastboot erase cache"
"fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img"
if any of those give you an error message (or any message), post them for us to see.

adb is not a windows program, you have to open a command prompt. go to the folder where adb is located, then SHIFT + RIGHT CLICK -> "Open command window here"
then you should be able to run adb or fastboot
check your device is connected with "adb devices" or "fastboot devices"

i think you cannot use adb command on fastboot
adb can be used on recovery or on system rom only while on usb debugging
have your flashed a recovery? (fastboot flash recovery (recovery file name.img)

Exactly.
In fastboot the fastboot commands work, but not the adb ones.
Yea it sounds like your Recovery got wiped at some point. Grab a Custom Recovery .img (TWRP or CWM) and boot to fastboot (shown in your screenshot). Open a command prompt in your adb/fastboot directory, with the recovery image in the same directory, and enter the following:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery 'nameofrecovery'.img
Then reboot bootloader and try accessing recovery again.

without adb you can't do anything.
please tell us more about what you did? What recovery are you using? What version? What rom version (and link please)? also post the output of ''fastboot getvar all'' minus IMEI/SN when in bootloader.
and what operating system are you using on your computer?

did you selected ''full wipe'' at the installation?

your recovery version is pretty out dated.
as i said before, don't use toolkit, you know why now...
download latest twrp recovery here
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <name_of_file>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then go back in recovery and flash the rom again and select full wipe.

np, glad it worked
hope you learned this:
don't use toolkit
don't rush
newer roms don't like old recoveries (especially 4.4 roms) So in the future be sure to update your recovery to latest version (or that one specified in the rom thread) before flashing.
hope you'll enjoy your new rom :highfive:
