TWRP.
Some recommend stidcking with older versions of TWRP, but I've had no problems with the latest.
CWM is not recommended for evita phones.

For a long time, we had only an unofficial port of CWM that was having some issues. Now, it's just a matter of taste.
Oops, my bad, hadn't been keeping up with recovery development and didn't realize CWM was official. Thanks guys.
It was posted about a month ago. People are just so used to twrp at this point that it hasn't gotten all that much attention.
we should probably remove all the download links and close the old cwm threads so when we recommend cwm people wont install the old one.

I just removed the old links for my Index thread, for what its worth. Also added a warning, not to use old CWM builds.
I see that CWM finally went official 5 days ago (I missed that somehow). Looks like they fixed USB mount, also. So I now see no reason why not to use CWM.
Really, its the users choice. TWRP 2.4.3 had some issues, but it looks like those were fixed, and in general its been a very stable and reliable recovery. Many of us know CWM as a reliable recovery as well, on other devices. So now that its official, I expect the same on the One X.

Now that we have an unlocked bootloader and working recovery, has anyone successfully ported any of the roms from the international htc one x (tegra 3)? Feel free to post which rom you used and how it worked out for you.

So now i have an unlocked bootloader and i have CWM installed. If i were to use a RUU, the clean rom DE, would it remove CWM and put the stock one back on? Or would it leave CWM intact?

When you start calling people names, you are the one that appears immature and childish, no matter how correct you may be.
The problem is, though, you are not correct. Maybe it only appears as a "simple" mistake to you, probably because you don't care or haven't spent enough time in the forums, but for people who frequent XDA then it has become a cumulative nuisance.
Also, when the majority of users responding in the thread you started is either questioning the logic of your statement or placement of the thread then maybe you need to reflect on what you were trying to accomplish and maybe take into consideration how you can achieve better results in the future. Long story short, try to learn from your mistakes.
Okay, so, International One x won't be compatible because of hardware differences, but what about the One S roms? I just tried flashing the CM9 port for the S, and it flashed successfully but upon reboot the screen was just filled with green graphical glitches. Rebooting back into recovery and attempting to restore my backup of the stock system didn't work at all, so RUU for me... but, why wouldn't a One S ROM work? It has 99% of the same hardware... besides the qHD screen. I remember being able to flash a Droid 3 ROM to my bootloader-locked Atrix 2 and it booting up just fine. What's different here?

LTE radio for one. Probably some other minor differences too.
Due to the excellent work being done on getting CM9 running smoothly on the One S, I have started to build nightlies. To avoid confusion with the release builds from xkonni I figured I would just create this thread to provide support for the nightlies.
I have the urge to live on the bleeding edge. Hence why I want nightlies. Hoping I'm not the only one and that these might be tempting for others as well.
Disclaimer
I take no responsibility for this. The nightly builds I try might work fine on my device, but not on yours. I am more than willing to help anyone who runs into troubles, but please, unless you absolutely want to run nightlies, I recommend running the more stable builds.
Download
Download links for the nightlies are available here (Updated)
Enjoy!
Man to know that there's so many options for the One S makes me feel good! Sense, CM9 and MIUI!
Yep, and we haven't even got the kernel sources yet, so I think we have great things ahead.
The One S is the fastest Android device out there (except maybe for the SIII) and deserves a lot of attention

If you are coming from Sense you should flash the boot.img. If you are coming from a previous CM (IE: updating to new nightly), you should not. It won't hurt, but not needed.

boot.img should be flashed. Put the file in the same location as your fastboot, adb, etc... and type:
Code:
flash boot boot.img
It is good practice to 'fastboot devices' to make sure everything is working good first After doing the above, you can go to recovery, wipe, flash, etc...

Yep, thats about it. Just keep in mind that you dont have to wipe anything (except maybe the cache to be absolutely safe) when upgrading from one nightly to another. So once you're in, feel free to flash as many new nightlies as you feel like.

It's the same phone. HTC One XL (HOXL) is the same phone in North America. But I've noted that the ROM works and doesn't work on different models for whatever reason.

If you're trying to download directly to the phone, that could be the issue. We have also had some server issues, but those should be corrected.

Don't install CMW Recovery it is not recommended for AT&T, Rogers HTC One X
"CWM does not officially support our device, and its just a port. Due to this, CWM has some serious and known problems. As already mentioned, USB mount doesn't work. Also, it has been known in some cases to cause some major issues with dialer and other phone functionality after flashing a ROM. Problems that persist even if you try flashing another ROM or restoring a backup. These problems are difficult (although not impossible) to fix, and a big headache.
TWRP officially supports our device, gets regular updates. Its fully working, and its recommended by almost all (if not all) our developers." (Thanks to redpoint73)

Simply no reason to use CWM. People only use it, because they have used it on other devices.
Just stay away from CWM. Use TWRP.

It will work most of the time. But when it doesn't, boy you are in for some "fun" times.
Just switch to TWRP. Its a great recovery, don't be averse to it, just because its different than what you used before. In this case, the more widely known choice (CWM) is not the best one, and can give you serious problems.
Yeah.... I didn't know CWM wouldn't work on my HTC One X. I installed TWRP and everything worked fine. Since I had CWM installed, it won't affect my phone will it since I installed TWRP over it?

Its not that CWM doesn't work, per se. CWM works most of the time . . . except when it doesn't (and causes big problems).
CWM is not going to affect your phone in any way, now that you've installed TWRP. Recovery was overwritten by TWRP.

To get this on the N5, we need to be able to first, compile stock CWM on our device (well we know that can be done). Then we need to be able to compile Philz source on our device tree in the same way. Then Phil will be able to release for the N5.
Of course, he will need to update his sources to CM 11 first, which will take time but once he does, we can do post 2 of that thread.
Please, no one reading this post go into the Philz development thread asking for support or ETA!!!
