got the phone yesterday, then installed the OTA update , then when i got back home i unlocked the bootloader from htcdev site.Then went to fastboot and flashed the cwm recovery touch,installed the su libs, did a backup ,factory reset and wipe cache, installed cm 10.0 and gapps , after restart it was unable to boot.now i know this is because of s-on.So i restored the backup and then installed goo manager from play store and flashed twrp recovery in order to try cm 10.1 with its aroma installer.during the installation of cm 10.1 i choose the newest tmo radio and after that i installed the htcdumlock and then THIS IS WHERE THE THINGS WENT WRONG i choose one of the other options in twrp i think restore recovery and then the option on the right side on the screen but it didn't able to finish it so i restarted the phone and now it stays on the the red warning text , unless i install boot.img from MaximusM fastboot toolkit or something witch gives me the option to choose recovery from fastboot witch actually somehow boots the ROM. forgot to mention that i had problems with the sd card mounting under twrp after i flashed cm 10.1 so i had to revert back and then between stock recovery witch actually makes the phone to boot in the stock rom and the other two custom recovery`s
so i have downloaded the tmo ruu and before im trying to relock the device i just want to ask am i on the right way with this??
Its OK i figured it out

Problem: After installing CWM, the phone won't boot fully. It goes to the HTC screen (with some new red text about this being a development-only build) and then reboots to the same screen over and over.
What I've done based on what I've read here:
Cleared the caches in fastboot and rebooted.
Run the unlock token script again.
Installed TWRP, wiped everything.
Attempted to flash CM9 through TWRP (fails).
Attempted to install Scott's Roms 1.85 ROM throught TWRP (failed).
Reinstalled CWM to try to flash Scott's 1.85, but CWM will not go into recovery mode (just goes to the HTC screen and starts boot loop again).
Attempted to install CM9 and Scott's 1.85 through flashboot, no luck because of missing text files (am I using the wrong package?).
Factory reset just takes me to TWRP, and when I try to factory reset from there it goes back into bootloop.
What does work:
I can get to Fastboot on phone.
With TWRP installed, I can into TWRP recovery.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks.

Uhhhhh...try to relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) and run an RUU. You'll go back to stock. Then follow these steps:
1. Re-unlock your bootloader using the same unlock token you used before
2. Flash TWRP from fastboot (or a one-click)
3. Reboot into TWRP
4. Mount storage and put whatever rom you want into whatever folder you want on the sdcard (CM9 Alpha 5, CleanROM, AOKP M6.2, etc etc)
5. Factory Reset
6. Flash the rom and anything that needs to go with the rom (like Gapps if you're flashing CM9 or AOKP)
7. Reboot and enjoy, be sure to update your SU binaries immediately after booting by opening up the SuperUser app
Also, do not use CWM, our device is not officially supported by the CWM team. Only TWRP is an officially supported recovery for our HOX.

Worked. I had to leave town for a week as I was reading your reply stnguyen, so I didn't get a chance to try it until I got home tonight. I'm up and running again. Thanks a ton!
I used Hasoon2000's HTC All-In-One Kit to root my phone. That all worked.
The issue came when i flashed a new kernel. I placed the boot.img from King Kang's new ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1959099)
Anyway, When i boot I get the HTC, quietly brilliant logo, and this in red letters "This build is for development purposes only. Do not distrubute... "
i can boot into recovery (pwr+ vol down)
And i get the ***TAMPERED*** AND ***unlocked*** tags at the top
I don't know where to go from here...
Thanks for the help.
Also, whenever i boot into recovery or factory reset, neither succeed.
This was probably known info, just wanted to add it.

You mentioned in your original post that you could boot into recovery, so is that not working now? Factory reset might've fubared the recovery piece, so you could do one of two things:
1) download the original RUU version for your phone, relock your phone, and flash the RUU and start over.
2) try reinstalling TWRP.
This whole thing sounds like trying to install a kernel or fastboot flash a boot.img without SuperSU correctly installed. This is what happened to me when I first unlocked my phone and tried to fastboot flash the CM10 boot.img after failing the flash from recovery twice. Without that super-user permission, bad things tend to happen. If you decide to continue on with reinstalling TWRP, make sure SuperSU.zip is flashed successfully from
TWRP, then try your rom/kernel combination again (or even a different combination if you're apprehensive).
BEWARE: sometimes partially flashing these things can corrupt your sd card. I had to reflash the original RUU to fix my phone BEFORE I rerooted and flashed a rom/kernel.
Have you fastbooted a SU to your phone after you rooted and unlocked? I'd imagine you did if you followed the toolkit.. So your on 2.20... Just download cleanrom 5.1 on your computer. Mount sdcard via recovery and drag cleanrom onto phone. Flash entire rom in recovery. I bet it works
Once your on a stable rom, download king kang from your phone. Download flashgui. Open flashgui app, navigate to king kang and let it find the boot img and flash it for you.. Once successful, immediately boot into recovery and flash entire rom through twrp.

I had followed the root instructions found here : forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801106
I did the HTC dev bootloader unlock...
Installed Clockwork Mod Recovery, Created a backup, then flashed the CyanogenMod 9.1.0 .... Stuck on boot screen ever since. I realized I screwed up and forgot to actually root my phone, So I went back into Clockwork Recovery and restored the backup, Still stuck on 4g slide boot screen!!!
I just put Superuser on my SD card, I'm going ot install it and see if that makes a difference since restoring didnt do anything.
I'm going to cry if I broke my phone! Help
Update: Cant even install Superuser, It errored and aborted
Using Clockwork mod, do a complete wipe of the phone, install CM 9.1 through CWM, then reboot to the bootloader and fastboot flash the boot.img file from the CM 9.1 ROM ZIP.
hi everyone, good to finally sign up after being a long time reader here, unfortunately I have a problem.
My htc one s is rooted and I am running twrp and wanted to install the latest cm nightly so I downloaded it, googled instructions and used these instructions from a website.
Steps to Install Android 5.0.2 Lollipop on HTC One S via Official CyanogenMod 12 Nightly ROM
Boot into Recovery mode via adb or hardware buttons or use the QuickBoot app if your device is rooted.
In recovery mode, back up data on your current ROM. If using TWRP, select Backup and perform a Swipe to Back Up from the bottom of the screen.
Then select Wipe and do a Swipe to Factory Reset from the bottom of the screen.
Return to the main menu of TWRP recovery and select Install (if using CWM then choose Install Zip from SDcard.
Browse to the file where you saved the CM12 ROM zip file, select it and Swipe to Confirm Flash on the bottom of the screen. Now, wait until the flashing process completes.
After the ROM is flashed, repeat step 8 to flash the Gapps package as well.
Once both the files are flashed, return to recovery's Main menu and select Reboot > System.
I did all that and it installed fine, however, when I restarted the phone, it showed the htc logo then it just went black so I had to go back into twrp.
Instead I changed my mind and tried to install 4.1.1. jelly bean (since I needed to update anyways and couldn't because I'm running twrp and in that whole process I ended up deleting the version of jellybean and basically my phone has no jellybean or lollipop installed at all so my only option is going back into twrp.
After that, I read that my phone has to be S-off so I looked up instructions on how to install it (I'm on a mac) and apparently I'm supposed to flash the boot.img (kernel) via fast boot but in order to do that you need to have jellybean or some kind of rom running to have debugging mode on and I don't so basically this is where I'm stuck.
My apologies for the lengthy explanation but if anyone knows what to do from here that would be amazing thanks.
Hello everyone, I'll tell you what happened
First I was in CM13.1, then I flashed to oxygen OS 3.1.4 custom
(When I flash the ROM, without warning me the recovery was updated to the version TWRP 3.0.3-2TugaPower, previously being in a version inferior to 2.8)
After logging in to the new recovery, I noticed that the recovery version was not on the TWRP page, so I decided to flash the most recent version of TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-bacon.img), flashe it through Android sdk (Fastboot), everything went well the pc recognized me the OPO in fastboot Mode and flashe the recovery without problems, the problem came when I try to enter the new recovery the OPO does not enter the recovery stays in the OnePlus Logo.
(Before updating the recovery I tried to restate the backup of my previous rom CM13.1 but when I was going to restart it it stays in the OnePlus logo, and when I go to recovery I fixed that in the section of "Mount" system is not checked , Active but still the same, and when I return to recovery is removed.)
I ask you if you can give me ideas to be able to have recovery again and revive my OPO plz.

I guess you didn't read the OP of Oxygen Os correctly,he clearly mentioned that this 'Tuga Power Recovery' is patched to work with Oxygen Os's firmware and one should not flash any other recovery.Now,what you can do is this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ikULjZZlloNHpOdVBrTzQxZzQ/view?usp=drive_web
> Download This file, install it somewhere and run Revert-2-CM.exe. Make sure you have fastboot drivers installed or it wont work.Avoid using any Antivirus program while doing this as they might give false alarms.After this you'll be restored to TWRP then you can flash any rom you want.The reason due to which you weren't able to find 'TugaPower Recovery' on TWRP page is because this is an Unofficial Recovery.
Question
What does the program do with the OPO?
If you are familiar with fastboot commands, this method should work. Had my OnePlus in the same situation last night messing around with Efidroid. Phone was bootlooping. Efidroid boot menu as well as recovery mode were both inaccessible. I had tried several other things but none worked for me. *CAUTION: this method did ERASE my userdata.* I downloaded a fastboot-able stock full firmware zip, then manually reflashed device. My beloved OnePlus is no longer my daily driver but still my fave device to experiment with so I just used COS 13.1 file. After full reboot, I downloaded and flashed official TWRP. Device is fully functional again, but without OOS installed.

It'll change your firmware and alter your recovery to a functional TWRP.You'll lose Oxygen Os after doing this.Though you can use this anytime when not being able to flash TWRP.
What should i do
Thanks a lot thanks to the method you told me my OPO has recovery again really thanks, but I have a question, I still in the TugaPower recovery, should I flash the stock recovery or the newest version of TWRP?
Because I do not know if flashing again the TWRP will happen the same
