Can't change recovery!!

I had cwm but I had issues with installing a rom, so I had flash a new recovery (twrp) with fastboot. I used the following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. This works for me. It was possible to use twrp.
Now I want to use cwm again(I got many Nandroids with cwm). I have try to change my recovery with the same command, wich I used the first time, but this time I get an error. He said he was failed to check the signature. I can still use twrp (version 2.3.3.0) but I really wants cwm back.
Please help me!
(Sorry for my bad English)
Edit: Used flash gui image now it works again!!!

fastboot flash rom

can i fastboot flash a rom or other zip? i've run into a problem after flashing a rom that wont boot and twrp wont mount data or my internal storage so i cant flash anything else. any help would be appretiated

I dont know how to do it, but have heard you can use the sideload feature of the twrp recovery to flash a rom. Or you could try flashing the new twrp recovery if your not on the new one. The new twrp 2.8.0.3 recovery was released on 9-30-14 last I checked its not updated on xda yet but you can get it on the twrp recovery web site which its on the link below, its the newest one on the bottom of the list.

worse case scenario, run the RUU, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img then install ROM in recovery.

Honestly, you might as well apply the whole RUU and get yourself back to a working stock before putting another custom ROM back on. Follow the OP in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2873144

I tried every method possible and none worked, I recently cracked my screen so I just took this as a sign and went ahead and got it replaced with insurance. Thanks for all the suggestions

did your recovery constantly reboot into a white htc screen ?

Are you using the correct Vzw version of twrp or cwm?

Try to flash your stock Rom using Odin[PC].You will most likely get your stock Rom in xda itself.

No, you can't flash the stock recovery with twrp and twrp is don' flash the stock rom
You can flash the stock recovery with only adb

FINALLY MY PHONE IS ON NOW SO HAPPY DID DANCE WHEN IT REBOOTED
I WILL EXPLAIN CLEARLY SO THAT IT MAY HELP OTHERS TOO.
i downloaded currunt rom from the official website.
tried to flash the stock rom but it gave me a error like- this is for ww sku your phone is asus zooe
theni extracted the zip file and edited the updater script and reflashed successfully but still stuck at the asus logo with out loading symbol.
i tried to flash stock recovery image with adb but it was saying unable to find the recovery file- not exactly but something like that.
i tot the problem is with adb. then i remembered that i have my phone model root file. to conform that the adb is working properly or not i gave a try to flash the mod_boot.img (asus ze500kl root img file) but unfortunatelly it flashed, rebooted and finally my phone is on.
ANY WAY UR METHOD DIDN'T WORK BUT THANKS A LOT FOR REPLYING TO MY PROBLEM. YOU GAVE ME SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE ABOUT STOCK RECOVERY AND STOCK ROM.

Corrupted recovery Mi4i

Currently my mi4i is rooted with TWRP recovery.
I want to install OTA updates and for that i need my stock recovery.
I have tried following three ways to get back stock recovery but none of them work for me
Flashed stock recovery through Flashify app. Flash was successful but reboot to recovery stucks at fastboot screen.
Flashed stock recovery through adb but again after successful flash, device stucks at fastboot screen.
Finally i tried to install stock recovery in twrp itself but it returned following error:
could not find 'meta-inf/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file
Can anyone guide what am I doing wrong and what should be done? Any help is appreciated.

Bro, thing is mi recovery.img has many problems. It doesn't work like that. Only thing u can do is flash via fastboot.

Thanks for replying!
I will flash via fastboot. Only issue I have is that this manual process has to be repeated everytime i want to install updates. This is why I was trying to get my stock recovery back. Though it seems like there isn't much that can be done regarding this.
