OK, I'm helping a friend with his Csouth showcase... He is rooted using the z4 root method. But i cannot seem to find a valid recovery.. And im coming from an HTC device so the whole samsung thing is alien.. I know what I'm doing but ive never owned a samsung device so I'm asking y'all... What is a recovery I can use, something other than Clockworkmod? Or if it's only Clockworkmod can y'all paste me a link to the latest version. I understand rom manager won't work. And I saw the sticky but something about flashing the recovery from recovery didn't sound right to me.. So I'm asking. Any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone have a link to the latest version by chance? Thank you very much.
Just realised I'm in the wrong section, can a mod move this for me please? Sorry bout that.
In market look for Rom manager. He this helps. Or flash DooMLoRD dual recovery. And select HTC desire HD.

My bootloader isn't unlocked bro, or I would've flashed the FXP kernel and gotten it instead, thanks for the help though mate.

no problems. use the rom manager app from the market and select HTC desire HD but why would you want. CWM anyways? only J's ROM have edify. cwm won't accept pretty much all the update.zips unless you covert them to edify ...

I wanna test out J's FXP 30 release. Thanks mate.
umm, sorry to say mate, you'll HAVE to unlock your bootloader =[
J's CM7 requires HIS kernel to be run, and his kernel requires the unlocked bootloader.
Otherwise, bootloop =[
Well, if you need help in unlocking your bootloader, just ask,
Phil.

I know the entire process, my issue with unlocking it is my phone was unlocked via a third party software that the_laser didn't make a supported unlocker for. Eh, it's aight, just need to stick to the basics and no more.
First thanks for the info, I didn't know where to get it.
So this recovery is useless atm, it won't work to flash other roms?
and Why do we need to select HTC desire HD?I think last time I downloaded this app the x10 was not listed, is that model compatible with the x10's?

Apparently so, but only for unlocked bootloaders, originally I was looking for the CWM that FXP team had modded to work on the x10, but it seems even those files are unavailable now since the bootloader has been unlocked, unfortunately.

Hello,
i just bought up this -
HTC One S this week.. its nice phone..
well, have some issues like: battery and admin access..
so can anyone first clear me if i root or change ROM of this phone will i be able to restore them all so i can avail its warranty in need ?
2nd) How to root this phone , perfectly without any issue.? what will be access + profit i will have if i root this device ?
3rd) How to increase its battery life ?
4) how are ROMs helpful to this phone ? and how to use custom ROM on this phone ???
Waiting for some help..
this is the guide i recommend for rooting your one s http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427
a custom rom (i recommend either trickdroid or AOKP Jelly Bean) will increase your battery life (most of the time, depends on the rom and the ones i recommended will do just that) and give you more customization options and give you more control of your device.
and if a warranty use is required, you can always flash back to the stock rom and re lock your bootloader
it's as simple as that

hmmm thanks
i will go through it
also, can you just tell me what all other roms are for ? like the one you gave me is for battery life what else options are there ?
and how i can take backup of original rom and bootloader in case i face issue ?
well, i was installing SuperSU but it says-
"There is no SU binary installed, and superSU cannot install it. This is a problem !"
what next ? i am jammed at step 1.
which supersu file are you trying to install? cause you need to grab the proper one. and as for what each rom does. you'll just have to browse the development section of the forums and see what's out there. or you could just flash carelessly and see which one fits you best. that's kind of what i did

hey man !
u said that it can be fixed as original.. ?
but here on HTC page it says after unlocking bootlocker-
"
Step 14
To re-lock your bootloader, in the command prompt, type: fastboot oem lock.
Note: This will not restore the factory default lock, but will simply re-lock the bootloader so no further changes can be made. Furthermore, if you want to unlock your bootloader again, simply repeat step 12 with your original unlock key file to unlock your phone again.
"
That means it will not be available for warranty ???
as i broked its seal ? am i right ?
please explain.. that how i can make my phone back to available for warranty ?
help me please ! stucked at bad point !!!
i am stuck badly now !!!
i tried recovery of various roms available on all threads but nothing worked for me !!!
Then i tried to restore back to stock ROM so i don't see HTC warning while using recovery mode but no help ! no ROM is now fitting in it..

I would just stay root .....if you came this far , i would go all the Way ...
Just flash recovery ....follow the guide that was posted in this thread

and i have downloaded recovery img file using that tool..
but now how to install it ? i can't see its installed ? how to install and confirm it works ?
your phone is booting to recovery only ,after installing custom recovery
here is the solution.
1.if you want to install custom rom and gapps, install twrp recovery
and install rom,gapps,and other mods
2.now your phone will not boot to system
3.after installing custom rom you need to install this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=928219&d=1330695090
see the video it is explained
if you are stuck in recovery mode you need to flash bootloader
you are saying that you need to flash again stock recovery( if i want to have custom recovery and i'm stuck in custom recovery and after i flash stock recovery what's the deal ?? ).. you're wrong in my opinion
here it is the solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24831012&postcount=1330
edit: i also think this thread is useless because in i9001 wiki page you'll find th solution for this problem and much more and even in some OP you'll see
edit 2: your video it's really cool.. i've just learned so much from it ))))
Here is the Proper fix

Thanks for your effort but this is already known for a long time by almost everyone.
I had use today odin for a long time. Probably haven't flashed anything via odin at least in 6 months or more.
I got bootloop to recovery. Now it's working.
Wow, thanks for the effort you've put in making this thread, and even making a video, but next time, use THE SEARCH BOX.

Just to be clear, if your gs3 has the official 4.3 on it, you CANNOT unlock the bootloader. You WILL brick your phone if you try.
Safer not to mess with it at this point imho

I definitely appreciate but cyanogrnmod is why I bought the phone. .. I'd there a way to possibly uninstall the update in that case or would I pay much have to wait till cyanogenmod comes or with something to get around Knox? Truthfully a good reputable stock android feel Rom installer would be nice but I'm super noob status when it comes to this and would appreciate any assistance

I have just received a replacement phone. I have gone about the ways I rooted previously and none of them are working. This did NOT come with 4.3 from the factory, and the 4.3 update is not installed. I reverted back to stock from android recovery, so 4.0.4 is on there right now. But no matter what I do, whether it's the one click method, the GS3 toolkit format, or manually trying to gain root through recovery, nothing works. On the "downloading" screen that you need during use of ODIN, it says "SECURE CHECK FAIL", and it'll either have "boot" after it, or "kernel". Anyone have any ideas? As of this moment I have no working phone. Looking for some help asap. Thank you guys.

Try to Odin flash factory 4.1.2 and see if the secure check turn to "enabled". If it's then try to root again.
I just Odin flashed a stock 4.1.2 ROM actually. It's booting up normally now. It honestly seems like they added a layer of protection on the newly distributed handsets. I will try to go through the normal 1 click method again and see if that works. How would I check if the secure check is still enabled?
Actually, no, it's still 4.0.4 but I'm going to try the same thing just with a different 1 click method.
Looks like the really old way worked. With the ez-unlock and ez-recovery. I had to completely demolish what was there when it was sent to me, though. So anyone who gets a replacement, the best bet is to flash a fresh 4.1.2 ROM or 4.0.4 ROM immediately, boot back up and go from there.
