You need to change recovery.img to the recovery image you downloaded, for ex: fastboot flash recovery recovery_cwm.img

Rename your recovery file to recovery.img. This file save to directory C:\WINDOWS. Restart your phone to FASTBOOT USB mode. Then in cmd run command FASTBOOT FLASH RECOVERY RECOVERY.IMG.

Since you have CWM installed, you must have unlocked your bootloader, so all you need to do is flash the boot.img file from the CM10.1 zip file in fastboot usb mode and you should be good to go.

Its not a stupid mistake at all. Please refrain from calling it stupid either because that was not the mistake. The mistake was that you didnt flash the boot.img. Just extract the boot.img fro the CM10.1 and put it with your platform-tools in your SDK folder. Then, in command prompt, navigate to the SDK folder. Reboot your phone into fastboot.
Type: fastboot devices <---------- to make sure your phone is detected
then: fastboot flash boot boot.img <---- assuming you did not change the boot image name, in which was just replace the second boot with watever you changed it to. DO NOT FORGET THE .img AT THE END

dude.... u have CWM, u have bootloader unlocked. Place your boot.img file from the CM10.1 in the platforms-tools folder in your sdk folder (which you MUST have downloaded when u unlocked your bootloader). Navigate to the platform-tools folder in cmd and then type the lines of code.

LOOOOL THE GREEN AVATAR FITS IN QUITE WELL XD
At OP, the thing i said to do does not even require S-OFF. With S-OFF you can just flash the ROM and your good.
It seems I'm running into the same problem. I went through the steps here but I still can't get the phone to boot. I did S-OFF and I have CWM running as well on the phone it just wont boot any ROM... It just kinda loads endlessly

Ok, that worked it's relocked now.
Now what?
Hmm I get a different error now "signature verify fail"
Since I can't flash from fastboot I tried taking the rom.zip out of a RUU (RUU_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.35.401.1_Radio_10.08.98.09H_1.05.98.08M2_release_260338_signed)
Apparently I can flash the rom from fastboot, but it fails:
Do I just need the right one?
After locking the boot loader unlock it again and try telling cwm or twrp

1. UNLOCK BOOTLOADER
2. Download Hansoon2000'sToolkit (look in the dev section)
3. Extract the data folder to Desktop
4. Put TWRP recovery.img in the data folder (or whatever you names it)
5. Boot Phone to Boot loader and press Power button Once so it says Fastboot USB in red*
6. In the data folder where all the files are hold Shift and right click and empty space (nothing highlited) And selected "Open comamnd window here"
7. Type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. Press Power button again when it's finished so now it says USB Plug or something
9. Use volume buttons and go to boot to recovery
10. Go to mount, mount USB Storage
11. Put Rom and Gapps on the SD card
12. Unmount, go to wipe and wipe cache, system, data, dalvik cache (Doesn't matter which order)
13. Flash the Rom, and then Flash the gapps < Suggest CM10 first to get booting, then switch it up afterwards
14. Once Flashed go back, go to advanced and click "reboot bootloader"
15. When you have fastboot USB showing again, Download NOPE kernel V2/2.5 (2.5 not tested) use the 750 incase you cant boot high OC's
16. Place the boot750.img in the data folder again
17. hold shift and right click in an empty space (nothing highlighted) and click "Open command window here"
18. Now do fastboot erase cache
19. Then fastboot flash boot boot750.img
20. Fastboot Reboot
21. Enable WiFi, then Reboot.
* If it doesnt recognize the fastboot then your drivers aren't installed..
Easiest way your gonna get

I flashed it using the info from (android. gs/install-twrp-recovery-moto-x- android-4-4- kitkat)
Am I using the correct one? And after that when I try to boot to recovery, nothing happens.
Do it like so
1. Put phone in bootloader
2. Type mfastboot flash recovery name of img.img
3. Then type adb reboot recovery
4. Then install supersu via flashable zip or from the market place
But right after you flash the custom recovery you have to boot into the recovery before you let the device boot up or the recovery won't work.
How this helps

Thank you again for responding.
I am fairly familiar with using CMD and commands but I think I am missing a step. Dont I need to have the window open that contains certain files? I am running windows 8.
Right after I flash the fastboot image I get several options when I do the "hold power and down volume" and none of them mention twrp recovery. It just says "recovery". Is that normal?
Yes click the down volume until recovery is highlighted and then hit volume up to select it but you can just type in the cmd window adb reboot recovery and it will boot into recovery

[SCRIPT] Recovery Flashing Script

Hello Guys! I made this little script for the people that dont know adb/fastboot commands and want to install a custom recovery
This will ONLYwork on UNLOCKED bootloaders.
Make sure "USB-Debugging" is enabled and adb/fastboot drivers have been properly installed
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for bricked devices or nuclear warfare. I made this simple script for those who can follow simple instructions.
1st. Download the Recovery Flashing script from here: http://goo.gl/ZtaUFe
2. Unzip the files to a folder on your desktop, or where ever you would like, just remember where you unzipped it to.
3. Download the recovery of your choice:
[m8][CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703223
OR
[RECOVERY][m8] TWRP 2.7.0.0 touch recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2717932
4. Place the recovery you downloaded in the previous step into the folder you unzipped the Recovery Flashing script.
5. Rename the recovery you downloaded to Recovery that way it appears as "Recovery.img" in the folder. If it has and extra ".img" at the end, it will fail to flash.
6. After you have done all the steps above, Simply click the "Recovery-Flasher.bat" and follow its instructions it presents, If you have done everything correctly you phone will boot into recovery at the end of the script
I hope this has made life a little easier for our new comers. Please dont forget to hit the thanks button!!! :good::good::good:
Changelog:
V1.1- Added "Fastboot erase cache" after flashing recovery.

Sorry but you will need a window pc to use this tool. You can download one of the recoveries in the OP then use the app Flashify in the play store to flash the recovery .

Download your stock ROM fromhttp://motofirmware.com/files/category/38-titan/, extract the .zip and flash recovery.img the same way you did with twrp.
