Trying to install twrp recovery but failing...

I am trying to install twrp recovery to install CleanROM but it is failing. I have unlocked my bootloader via htc dev but the following fails:
c:\Android>fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-evita.img
sending 'recovery' (7428 KB)...
FAILED (data transfer failure (Unknown error))
finished. total time: 0.011s
I am also doing this knowing I have the option of installing the script on Goo Manager but that only downloads, I get a toast saying successfully installed and cannot confirm if it has been installed as the device did not automatically restart and flash.
Please advise... Thanks.

If your running windows, just make sure all you files are in the same folder ie twrp, adb, fast boot then press shift + right click, open command prompt here. I've heard of have you virus protection on? can cause problems.

Yes, adb.exe - fastboot.exe - AdbWinApi.dll and the twrp recovery image are all in the same folder.

My only other suggestions would be to make sure you have administrative permission s on you PC. I can't imagine why its doing that to you unless you downloaded a corrupt boot image. I've had that happen a few times.

Is there anyway configurations prior to running Goo Manager? I have an unlocked bootloader, not sure what else is missing for it to not restart on it's own after downloading and 'installing'. Did the same thing happen for you?
Also note my phone is not rooted (stuck on Rogers' 1.94.x.x firmware after the OTA) -- could this be a problem? If so, how do I root my device otherwise..?

Have you checked out the One click tool v 2.2.2.0 under the Index in the dev thread.
I was never able to get fastboot to flash it and this worked for me.
Its under the android development index thread under the heading recovery.

Which tool are you referring to? I cannot find it. Any one click tool I see does not work for 1.94.x.x firmware...

I was on 1.94 too.
Just try goomanager again, download twrp, then in goomanager go to options and install open recovery.
Might want to make sure fastboot is off in options too before tryin to boot into recovery.
If that don't work its beyond me sorry.

How long does it usually take to flash twrp to the phone? The first time I execute the command, it fails the second time it sends but after 12 minutes nothing changes.

this is the thread

Yeah, I found it a few minutes ago as well. I gave up though, I cannot flash through fastboot and goo manager won't work. Guess this phone is not getting any custom roms.

your bootloader is unlocked though?

Yes, via htcdev (it also has the ***unlocked*** status in recovery).

Here's your full proof method.......
Boot up phone all the way, enable USB debugging
Download-
http://db.tt/sXmdepmX
Stick it on root of your internal sdcard.
Open up your command prompt and cd to your adb/fastboot directory.....type-
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/twerp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
Once it's done, do it again for good measure...
press up arrow, it rewrites last command, and press enter.
When done type
exit
exit
adb reboot recovery
There u go.......twrp recovery installed:beer:

What does of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22 mean? This is going to work for the evita One XL right? I do this while my phone is booted up normally?
Trying this, I cannot get past the 'su' command and get: /system/bin/sh: su: not found

Well that's why goo isn't working either......goomanager and this both require root.

Right, so that is why I am stuck in this dilemma. I am on 1.94.x.x firmware with the latest Rogers OTA and have no one click method to root and flashing twrp is failing.
I am on Windows 7 and have 2 USB 3.0 ports but currently not hooking up device to those ports.

With bootloader unlocked you should be able to flash a recovery. I see the error your getting when flashing twrp from bootloader and it looks like a communication error of some sort. It's not the phone blocking it......try all your USB ports when in bootloader, make sure your phone says fastboot USB also....if nothing else try a different pc, because it's not the phone, it's def. A pc issue I'd say

Here's your problem....not rooted, goo won't work.....your missing files in your adb/fastboot folder
Download this-
http://db.tt/5ePa4XV5
Unzip and place files in your adb folder, overwrite the ones that are in there or delete them first, but leave your twrp.img and your unlock_code.bin
Boot phone all the way
Open cmd prompt and cd to your adb folder
Type
adb reboot bootloader
Once in bootloader
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Now do it a second time for good measure
On phone screen, select bootloader, then recovery.....done:beer:

[Q] Stuck in loop, can't boot recovery or normal. Please, help me. :(

Ok, I can boot into Hboot, but when I choose recovery, I get stuck in a loop on the logo with the red disclaimer.(yes I cleared cache) I tried installing a rom and after that I cannot boot into ANYTHING. Just a loop. Hboot 1.14 I just want a working rom at this point. Stock is fine. But I am totally at a loss right now. Am I screwed? Thank you for your time.
I tried CM, Stock Recover, TWRP.....
HTC One X ATT
Rooted
Bricked?

Try to reflash the recovery and try again. Do you have the Evita or endeavor?
Sent from my Carbon-ize Evita using xda-developers app

Need to be more specific, but try this and for future reference
Are you unlocked? Did you fastboot flash boot boot.img (always do this when on hboot 1.14 or higher)?
Give me all the info you can about your phone. Recovery version, rom that was flashed, but failed, what did you do when flashing the rom step by step?
This should be fixable by ruuing heres a link on the basic directions
http://onexroot.com/one-x-unroot/how-to-unrootunbrick-att-one-x/
I think you can't use 2.20, you probably need a later ruu. Hope this works, but don't do this until after you have provided more info
---------- Post added at 01:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 AM ----------
And I or someone better than me at this has given you the OK to.

Tried all of the fastboot methods
I have tried reflashing multiple times, multiple versions of TWRP. was trying to follow this youtube vid ((HD) Samsung Galaxy SIII (S3) Touchwiz for HTC One X - Cursed4Eva)
I only got to install the gapps file from the vid, then it failed to flash anything else.
**tampered**
**unlocked**

Grab version 2.3.3.0. It works just fine for me. Also when you get into recovery you need to flash the ROM and then flash the boot image.
Also if you can, open up fast boot and type "fastboot OEM getvars" and paste the results. It could be getvar if the previous does not work.

Any rom in the AT&T one xl sections. Evita is the phone we have, endeavor is the quad core one x, cross flashing has a high chance of bricking your device. Have you done any reading before risking your expensive piece of equipment?

First of all you should have done more research before flashing stuff on your phone. Youre lucky your phone is still alive after flashing that international rom buddy.
Second the command fastboot oem getvar is incomplete. THats why you are getting the error. Getvar must be followed by something like fastboot oem getvar cid.
So one more time.
First make sure you have plenty of battery
1 Boot into hboot.
2Select fastboot and press the power button.
3 Open fastboot in command prompt and and type "fastboot devices"
4 If it shows a serial number it is recognizing your phone. If not try different cables and ports
5 IF recognized type "fastboot flash recovery ( navigate back to your fastboot folder and drag the recovery.img into the command window. The recovery.img MUST be in the same folder as the fastboot program!!)"
6 Press enter.
7 Type "fastboot erase cache"
8 Type "fastboot reboot recovery"
If this doesn't work you have another problem. I would suggest running a ruu if your're not super cid. To check super cid boot back into fastboot mode and type "fastboot oem getvar cid" If it shows "11111111" you have super cid and cant run a ruu. If not you can run a ruu.
If the steps above did work and your're now in recovery. Then.
1 Wipe everything. Cache/dalvik cache/system/android secure/ and sdcard.
2 Mount sdcard and transfer your rom to your sd card. MAKE SURE THE ROM IS FOR THE DUAL CORE ONE XL EVITA model. For now just stick with a sense rom. If you want a suggestion I suggest you use this one for now. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2181891
3 Once transfered. Safetly unmount sdcard and flash the rom.
4 Select reboot bootloader in recovery.
5 Once in hboot select bootloader.
6 Open the rom you just flashed and copy the boot.img that is in the root of the zip to the folder where you have fastboot.
7 Type "fastboot devices" to see if the pc recognizes the phone.
8 If you see a serial number the pc recognizes your phone.
9 Type "fastboot flash boot (go back to explorer and drag the boot.img from the fastboot folder to the command window."
10 Hit enter
11 Press the vol down button and navigate to power off.
12 Hit the power button.
13 Once phone is completely off press and hold the power button till the phone comes on.
14 If it still boot loops a ruu is your only option.

Installed HTC Sync, RUU up and running. Thanks guys. Sorry for so noob. nearly trolling.

[Q] Phone soft bricked - tried everything!

Hi, if anyone can help me solve this, I will be eternally grateful.
So I was following the CyanogenMod guide for installing the ROM on my HTC One S, but I foolishly flashed the ROM as a .zip, instead of the boot.img.
I can access the bootloader screen, and also the TeamWin recovery screen, but I cannot seem to use flashboot.
It always comes up as <waiting on device>.
I am lost, because I obviously used flashboot to flash the recovery and the ROM across to my phone, and all the files are still in the same folder.
Basically, I cannot start my phone, other than into the recovery screen or the bootloader screen. I cannot seem to flash anything across either.
If anyone can solve this issue from this poor explanation I will be more than impressed.
Many thanks.

It is waiting for device because the phone isn't in bootloader (fastboot USB) connected to pc...most likely.
So with phone in bootloader and it reads fastboot USB
from your fastboot folder press shift and right click to open command window.
fastboot flash boot boot.img
(this assumes you have put the boot.img in the fastboot folder)
Then go to recovery
install rom.zip
wipe the caches
If you don't have the rom.zip on your phone then mount usb storage in twrp and move the rom.zip from your pc to your phone.
Hopefully your Hboot is 2.15 or you will just bootloop.

So can I clarify that I need to flash both the boot.img file and the rom.zip separately. Then install the rom.zip, not the boot.img?
Because I install the rom.zip last time without the boot.img being flash, and thats when it messed up.
Basically, am I installing the .zip or the .img?
Thanks a million.

.img , you need to extract boot.img from ROM zip and than just "fastboot flash boot boot.img" ,no quotes in command -that is for boot.img and you do flash ROM as a zip

Next issue. I have flashed the boot.img to the phone, now I need to get the rom.zip onto the phone.
Everytime I click mount on TWRP, my computer tells me that I must format the disk before I can use it.
I can't seem to use adb, I always get "no device found".
Any ideas?

adb push ROM.zip /sdcard ,ROM needs to be in fastboot folder, are U s-off or s- on ,did U flash ROM zip before soft brick, can U see files from TWRP when U go to install from sd...some info that is important,if all fails think you'll have to run RUU to fix memory partitions

It does sound like it would be easiest just to start all over again. What's the best way to do this?

[Q] Stuck in TWRP Recovery Mode

Hi there!
I just had a go at flashing my new HTC One M8, and I'm stuck in recovery mode.
I followed these instructions:
androidcentral.us/2014/04/root-att-htc-one-m8/
But got the TWRP file from here because the original link was overloaded:
androidfiles.org/?developer=M8&folder=Recoveries
I essentially just ran:
Code:
fastboot-mac erase
cachefastboot-mac
flash boot recovery.img
fastboot-mac reboot
Then installed the SuperSU update zip. Now every time I try reboot into the Android system, it boots into recovery mode. If I boot into the bootloader, I get the option to boot using fastboot but that appears to fail (it returns me to the bootloader after a second). If I select hboot, it says "No image or wrong image!" after trying to load a .nbh file.
Any ideas?
BTW, I got the unlocked version from Amazon: amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B00J3554KE/

you flashed recovery to kernel partition! The guide is wrong as i read.
To flash recovery:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
BUT you will also need to flash the kernel again as you just messed it up!

Ouch! Ok, that sucks that steps I was following were wrong. :/ But at least I feel less like an idiot.
So I found a boot.img from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51580259 and flashed that. Now I'm not returning to the recovery screen, but to the bootloader always and it gives the same message about wrong image.

Thats good. I'll help you get back working phone.
BUT i need some info:
Please tell me what bootloader is about:
HBoot and so on. Also i need to know if its an "UNLOCKED" phone sold by a carrier. Or a carrier free phone. Because you will need fittig software for each model.

The info on top of the bootloader screen?
Code:
M8_UL_CA PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-1.15.2133156.UA03_2G
OpenDSP-v26.2.2-00538-M8974.0106
OS-1.12.1540.17
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Mar 3 2014,20:18:02.0
It's an unlocked (carrier free) phone sold by Amazon: amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-Unlocked-Warranty/dp/B00J3554KE/

Okay. Will get the right files.

The rom includes stock kerne. Just download it and we'll try to flash just the included kernel file as it should get your device back working.
Otherwise you'll have to flash full rom via twrp.
Please tell me when your download is ready. And this time do yourself a favor and DON'T act on your own as long as you don't know what you're doing...

Oh my, thanks so much that worked!! You're awesome! I honestly had a feeling I'd lost my phone.

Glad you got it back alive

Hi guys
I own an HTC Desire S, and this phone not working anymore.
I was downloading "angy birds" from marketplace. After i installed the game and run it the phone stuck, so i removede the battery and power up the phone.
After powering up the phone got this problem:
1) The phone stuck at HTC logo.
2) If i use Vol Down + Power i get into the HBOOT and i got this options
Code:
[COLOR="SeaGreen"]SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.98.0002
RADIO-3805.06.02.03_M
eMMC-BOOT
Mar 30 2011, 17:29:31[/COLOR]
HBOOT

<VOL DOWN> to next item
<POWER> to select item
FASTBOOT
REOVERY
[COLOR="Red"]FACTORY RESET[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Blue"]SIMLOCK[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Black"]IMAGE CRC[/COLOR]
The Phone is Not Rooted or Dev acces
If i choose FASTBOOT the computer see`s my phone i can use fastboot but not in at 100% i get an error like "
if i choose RECOVERY i get an image black screen a phone and two green arrows that stays alive like 5 seconds, the phones display shut down and vibrates 7 times and it dies)
i tried ADB, RUU, and PG88IMG.zip, with adb my phone is not discoverable. at adb devices.
And with Ruu and PG88IMG it starts to install but it stucks.
What can i do and how can i reslove this problem
Thank You Everyone.

Since u r s-off try flashing recovery.img via fastboot. In desire s general ul see a guide by me for 4ext recovery, extract the zip file and put the recovery.img in ur fastboot folder on pc, put phone into fastboot mode, connect to pc and open fastboot command window and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then try boot into recovery, hopefully u can then u can try flashing a rom.
Or the only other option is try flashing a ruu.exe file from pc. Hopefully it will finish
