You first have to unlock the phone's bootloader, then install cwm or twrp

Was the command you used:
fastboot flash recovery cwm-*.img
???
And, what exactly is the cmd output you are getting?

I think you downloaded the recovery image of another device. Try redownloading the file.

you need to flash the recovery again via fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
maybe try redownloading the recovery.img as well

Thanks but im trying to go back to stock so i need to just boot into it and not install it. thanks for the info
Hello everyone,
I am a new htc sensation user and I recently rooted it using the traditional method and have been installing roms since then.
However, recently when I was installing CarbonRom Kitkat 4.4.3, the ClockWork Mod recovery told me that I cannot flash the rom ( I don't know for what reason). I thought it was something to do with my recovery. So I decided to flash 4EXT touch recovery but as I have S-on, even after giving the command through fastboot for erasing recovery and all the partitions "fastboot -w" , the command prompt gave me this error " remote access not allowed". So I thought of going on with the flashing and flashed the 4EXT recovery image through fastboot. But when I tried to boot into recovery , the phone was just stuck on the htc white screen.
As I did not erase the recovery and flashed a new recovery, i think that I have overlapped the two recoveries and have corrupted them. Now, my phone boots only into the bootloader and I also have s-on. Can anyone please tell me how to install the stock rom (as I would like to revert back to the original rom) through bootloader and fastboot? i heard about the PG58IMG method but will it work on s-on? Please help me out.
Hi, im guessing u already have recovery.img in ur fastboot folder so try this command from fastboot
fastboot boot recovery.img
Hopefully that will get u there so u can flash a rom but u will have to download 4ext recovery updater app once phone is booted to flash recovery coz doing above command only boots recovery, doesnt flash it. It works on desire s and desire so it should work for sensation too (hopefully)

So this means that I should first flash the recovery and then boot it using the command
fastboot boot recovery.img
?? or should I just boot it up using the command . And is there anyway to give any master commands like erase a partition while on s-on? And which recovery do u prefer CWM or 4EXT?

since you are on S-ON go for 4ext

That is actually where the problem started from. i tried to install 4ext before erasing CWM and I think that caused the problem.
Do you think that recoveries can be overlapped or am i just being pointless? And can you tell me about any master commands like erasing a parition that will work with s-on?

you can overwrite 4ext in top of cwm
i used to have cwm but i changed it with 4ext using only the command
fastboot fash recovery recovery.img
i didn't use any command for erasing partitions

I also used the same commands but since then I am not able to get into the recovery. it just shows the htc logo on white background
Do you think it has something to do with s-on? were you on s-off when you flashed the recovery?

Nothing to do with s-on. Try flashing 4ext recovery again

Mismatch partition size will always occur while flashing a custom recovery, no need to worry about it
And what do you mean nothing came up when you typed commands
Some output must have come

The flashing instruction makes no sense to me
Spookybear said:
INSTALLATION:
0. Backup your ROM, your data, your internal storage, and your settings/apps, to an external device
1. Reboot to your custom TWRP-based Recovery
2. The device will automatically reboot into OrangeFox recovery after installation (allow this to happen)
3. Enjoy!
(Note: There is no zip file because this recovery is too big to fit in the ramdisk.

Can you please clarify this?
I assume install .IMG to Ramdisk? It will likely come up, so just want to cover all bases.

I tried that...no dice...
Flash to both _a and _b using trwp but recovery does not boot... so back to trwp til some future info...
I flashed via TWRP, via flash .img to ramdisk, rebooted to recovery and nothing.
Stuck at "Bootloader unlocked" screen
Tried to boot via fastboot and it failed.
Was this recovery tested on the OP7 Pro? If so, what ROM was being used and what was the flashing process?

He updated it with fastboot flash, indicating that this is to be installed, however it doesn't appear to work at all at this point.
For me is working , latest OOS beta. Just had to disable vbmeta in order to boot.
we need a flashble zip for this.
is OTG working with OrangeFox ?

Not exactly, try - fastboot flash recovery *drag the image into the cmd then press enter*
Can this recovery be decreased in size so that it can be flashed to the ramdisk?
EDIT: It seems twrp is even bigger than this. Twrp img is 30.7mb while this is 29.4mb. Twrp does flash to the ramdisk. If this could be permanently flashed, it would be perfect. If the size needs to be decreased, certain graphics could be moved to the internal storage to save space on the ramdisk.
Hahaha wow what are you doing here it's like you didn't even test this at all. I'm tried to flash the installer in twrp and it tells me that this recovery is only for guacamole not OnePlus 7 pro. So it does not support custom roms clearly cause I'm on bliss

The miflash you are using is obsolete!!!!!

Verify drivers.
Rename files without space and few characters .ex:1203miui.
Put the folder in the same folder than miflash .
