I used the bootloader unlocker from HTC with success having S Off. When i attempt to boot into recovery I get the red fail sign. Again my phone shows S off and shows unlocked at the top (using HTC). Any suggestions?

HTC's unlocker tool gave you S-OFF?
To answer your question though, if you see the red triangle with an exclamation in it push Vol UP + Power to bring up the menu. You'll need to flash a recovery with fastboot to replace it.
edit: twrp is a good one and can be found here
Yes I have S off. I saw where others still have S on. I pushed volume up and power and was able to attempt to install the zip. I get the "signature verfication failed" error message.
What recovery are you trying to install and how are you trying to install it?

TWRP. The only way I can get into recovery is as described above. When I attempt I get the red triangle. I then push volume up and power enabling me to attempt to install a zip. It appears the zip attempts to load but that is when I get the "signature verification error"
The easiest way to flash the TWRP recovery is to download the PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-1.0.3.zip file from the TWRP thread, and rename it to PG86IMG.zip
Place it on the root of your SD card, and power down the phone. (Make sure you have Fast Boot turned off in your phone settings. It's found in your Power settings on the phone.)
Once the PG86IMG.zip file is on the root of your SD card and you have your phone powered off, press and hold Volume Down and Power. Once HBOOT comes up, it will scan your SD card, find the PG86IMG file, and ask you if you want to flash the file. Press Volume Up to confirm (I think its Volume Up, I'm typing this up from memory.)
TWRP will flash to your phone, and then you're done. To get to TWRP recovery from a powered down phone, just repeat the Volume Down + Power to get to HBOOT, and choose Recovery from the options listed. You should be golden
TWRP doesn't work with the HTC unlocker method. You have to use an older version of CWM. Look here for the file its buried somewhere in this thread:

TWRP won't work even if he achieved S-OFF using HTC's unlocking method? That's good to know.
Connect with adb and try:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar security
fastboot oem readsecureflag
That should say off and Zero but from what you're describing it may still be on. I wonder if HTC decided to redefine "S-OFF"
So the problem is resolved and I have full root! I was able to change the file name of TWRP to PG86IMG.zip and it was automatically sensed right away on reboot. I was then able to get into recovery but still no root. I had to flash Superuser from ChainsDD from the Market. After 2 attempts I succeeded on the 3rd. Full root with S off and no problems. Thank you to everyone who gave me ideas and suggestions. Thats what is great about XDA

i have been searching these forums for the past few days and have come up dry.. i have an htc rezound and I want the OTA BUT i have perm rooted it and removed most (if not all) the bloat... how do i go about rebloat and relocking my phone? i have tried using cleantool and it keeps waiting for the phone or it just fails all over itself repeatedly
edit: i have it set to charge only, sync is off and closed, and it is in fastboot mode. I have also tried something I found on here which seems like it is very similar to cleantools with less functionality and it just says <waiting for device> indefinitely

There are a few different ways to do it. Easiest way I did it to make it foolproof, is flash stock recovery if your on a custom recovery and relock phone and run the RUU. It will put you back to stock and you can just download the OTA and update it, then Unlock and flash Amon Ra recovery and from the developer menu install SU and superuser to reroot.
If you need more instructions , just ask otherwise to me that was the easiest way.
P.S. Just be aware the internal SD card gets wiped after you unlock again so move anything off the internal SD to the external SD that you want to save prior to unlocking again.
I didnt take the ota, I used cons ota rom.. this was my steps for that
1) download rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467329
2) boot into recovery, flash rom....
here you can go two ways, if you dont want the new baseband, it will flash the ph98img and not do anything, if you want the new radios I will tell you how I did it, then tell you where you need to start if you wont want them.
3)perform nandroid
4)via adb (thing you used to unlock originally) fastboot oem lock YOU ARE NOW LOCKED.
5)boot into hboot it will flash the ph98img
6) Unlock bootloader (find the email with the unlock.bin code and follow those instructions)
7)Reboot phone
8)connect to pc, charge only usb debugging enabled
9)run one click root
Proceed with this if you get the mainver error ONLY otherwise if having wifi issues, proceed to step 13
10) after rooted follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467099 NOTE, op in the thread supplied his miscnew.img USE IT!
11)Read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459347&highlight=mainver it will explain how to get the ph98s to work.
11a) do the ph98 file thing to the ph98 img in amon ra to get it to flash in bootloader
12) after amon ra is restored, perform restore nandroid.
If wifi is not working, even if you dont have mainver issues do step 13
13) If having wifi issues as in not working go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467793 and follow instructions EXACTLY!!!
Now you should be running new radios, hb2.11, the 2.6 kernel etc.
You will have to follow the post in step 11 to get any ph to work from now on.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE, BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN OR ABDUCTED BY ALIENS BY FOLLOWING THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS.
im having some trouble getting into recovery because clockworkmod says it does not have an officially supported recovery... how do i manually install one?
Assuming you installed a recovery, just boot to Hboot. Pull the battery, then hold the power button and volume down button. Once in Hboot you can choose Recovery.

To flash a recovery do the above steps to get into hboot (power down, pull battery, hold volume down and power buttons) and once you are in hboot, choose fastboot. Then connect to your pc and in the pc cmd prompt type:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img (name of stock recovery you need to download, trying to find a link for you...)
That will put the stock recovery on the phone, then you can run RUU to get the rest back to stock and you can then accept the OTA.

got it! OTA and everything.. debating on rerooting for a bit thanks a lot everyone! +rep
All you have to do to reroot now is flash Amon Ra and then install su from within that. So it's super easy at this point.
su seems to have remained installed.... no root but su is definitely still installed! the only reason i am going to wait on rerooting is so i can learn more about it before i flash or anything
Yeah, it will show up in your apps but it doesn't work properly until you reinstall. I thought I had remained rooted but when I went to use Titanium Backup it couldn't get root access, then after I reinstalled su it worked fine.
But yeah, if you don't need it yet don't worry about it. The only good reason to do it is to use TiBU to save all your settings and if you have Amon Ra you can make a nandroid of your phone so that if something happens you have a backup image of everything and can restore it very easily via Amon Ra. You can still stay on stock ROM etc... the only thing you would need to flash is the Amon Ra recovery.
ya i see what you mean... I also want to get rid of this unbelievable amount of bloat... geez their are a ton of useless verizon apps never mind the stupid games
I am running santod's rooted Stock ICS rom, which has been running excellent, love it very much. Today I went to do a backup in recovery and noticedit will not boot into recovery. I am running the 4EXT recovery as suggested in the rom forum post. Nothing I do seems to be able to boot the recovery. I can't reboot into recovery from the 4EXT app. I boot the phone with the volume down key, and try to enter recovery from there. Still nothing. I get my initial boot logo, then screen goes black, then boot logo again and it proceeds to boot up normally. I have tried re-flashing the recovery from the 4EXT app, I even tried rom manages and using the latest clockwork mod recovery. Nothing gets me into recovery. Also have noticed my phone will not stay powered off when on the charger. If I power off, plug the charger in, after a few seconds phone powers itself on. Could it be related?
I followed the rom installation instructions to the letter.
Installed the 4EXT recovery.
Flashed the ICS radios.
Wiped all my partitions except my SD card.
Flashed rom and have enjoyed for weeks now.
Only other info I know to provide is I installed the debloated/deodexed rom
Did not flash the kernel as I didn't experience boot loops.
Thanks in advance for any assistance folks!

Did you rename or remove the Radio file from the sd card as suggested in the OP of the rom thread?
It will not let you get into Recovery if there is a PG05IMG.zip present on the root of the sd card.
If that's not the case, reflash 4ext from within the Recovery control app.
Just installing the app doesn't install the Recovery.
You must also install the actual Recovery from within the app if you haven't.

Yeah, there is no PG05IMG.zip in the sd card root. Also I have tried reinstalling the recovery from the 4EXT recovery control app.
Current verson of recovery installed is 4EXT Recovery Touch v1.0.0.5 RC8.
Tried reflashing that, and also the RC9 test build that is out right now.
Still no go on getting into the recovery.
Thanks.
When you do the volume down and power option with the device off, you need to first press the volume down and then while holding that, then press and also hold the power button, you should feel it vibrate, keeeeeep holding them down, do not let go.
Wait until you see what should be a white hboot screen with menu options, then you may let go.
If you hold power first or don't hold them both down long enough, it will just try to boot normally.
Not that that would explain why you can't get there from within Recovery Control app.
What is your hboot version and how did you root your device?

It was rooted using the Revolutionary method, did it a year or more ago.
Hboot version is 6.04.1002
When I try to go to recovery from the hboot screen it does the same, vibrate, white HTC screen, black screen, vibrate, white HTC screen, normal boot. No recovery.
Is there any other method of getting into recovery or re-flashing the recovery?

Yes, you can flash Recovery images from hboot, just like you flash a radio.
With it named PG05IMG.zip and placed on the root of the sd card.
HERE is one you can try.
If that doesn't work, I may have something you can try from fastboot to clear the Recovery cache, and maybe that will resolve the issue.
I have only seen one other user have this occur and his device simply ended up getting replaced because he wasn't able to mount to usb for doing fastboot commands either.

On a side note, in talking to my father, his bolt seems to have the same issue. We both were rooted with the same method, and I believe we have the same hboot version. Only difference is he flashed the rom using clockwork recovery.

Well, I've got several Bolts here, and a couple of them have that same hboot and were used to test the stock roms with.
So I do not think it's a root or hboot issue, but I do not know what the issue would be other then corrupt Recovery cache.
To try and fix it by clearing the cache, do the following:
Download the erasecache.zip file from www.4ext.net/erasecache.zip
First boot your device into bootloader while connected via usb.
If it reads "fastboot usb" you are already in fastboot mode.
If it reads "hboot usb" then select "fastboot" in the bootloader menu.
Extract the file anywhere on your computer, and then start the file erase_cache.cmd with
elevated rights (right click erase_cache.cmd and select to run as administrator)
Watch for any error messages and tell me the results please.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If the above method fails, try this way:
This requires a little adb or command line knowledge(not much) and the appropriate files on your system.
Please boot into bootloader -> fastboot mode
and then issue the following fastboot command:
fastboot erase cache
afterwards boot recovery from the bootloader menu and enter the
wipe menu and format cache

No Go, my tbolt will not mount in Win7, it just says the device has malfunctioned. Rebooting into the bootloader with USB in will not show anything in Windows, even in fastboot. It makes the device connection sound but no devices show up. Running the CMD file in the zip you linked does nothing, I'm at 10 minutes now where it just says "Waiting for device".

I think I had a similar problem once. Boot back into your hboot screen. Then select "factory reset". If you have a 3rd party recovery installed, like it sound like you have (4ext, right?), it will boot you to recovery so you can administer the reset yourself (it doesn't actually wipe anything, just brings you to your recovery's home screen).
Let me know how it goes.

Thanks for the info, but this didn't work either. I'm also on 6.04.1002 and rooted mine a week after the T-Bolt shipped manually via adb.
This happened about a month ago also, and I thought it was ext4 but managed to get an older TWRP recovery to work after working on it for about a day and a half without a working phone. At least I have a working phone at this point.

Might be wise to bring it to Max's attention.
He makes the Recovery that is disappearing and may have suggestions or ideas on how to prevent this in the future.
I have flashed every rom I have ever posted at least once.
Most of them, may times and have yet to run into this issue.
I have had Recovery become corrupted once or twice quite some time back and not be able to get into it.
But it was easily fixed by reinstalling/reflashing a recovery.
I guess what I'm saying, is if there is a common issue occuring on our device with some ICS users and his Recovery, he should know about it.
Here's how to contact him: LINK
Hopefully he can help or look into the root of the issue, since I know he has had a few users with this same issue in the past.

After going over the issue with Max and trying several fixes he suggested (he even made me an app that would format my cache), it seems I either need to obtain an RUU and flash the stock software/recovery back on and re-root or try flashing an updated hboot that already has s-off. The thinking is that it is my hboot that is causing the issue. Does anyone know what files I need? I have a couple of things to try at home to see if I can get my usb working again, if not, anything I do will have to be a flashable zip from the bootloader. Thanks!
I bought a used HTC DNA that is S-ON, and does not say UNLOCKED or TAMPERED, but I have not been able to boot into recovery. When i hold volume down and power I just get blinking soft buttons and then the phone reboots. Is there away to flash the stock recovery back on the phone without having to unlock bootloader?
I can adb into hboot via the cli, but i have no options to get into recovery mode. This all started because i wanted to wipe cache.
Thanks.
have you tried "adb reboot recovery"? That should boot you straight into it.

If you still need help, download an app called "flash gui" on the market. Download a recovery image, click img on the one of two options, and flash it. Then hold down the volume down and power and it should work.

Most serious bootloops can be fixed my simply installing a new boot.img through fastboot. Here is a link on how to do that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1752270
After you do that. you can try installing a new recovery through the same process. Instead of flash boot.img, flash recovery.img. That should fix your problem. If you STILL keep getting bootloop, you now have access to recovery and can do a factory reset. Hope this helps! you can get the boot and recovery image from a stock EVO 3D Rom.

First of all, you don't need to access recovery to flash fastboot. What you need is the bootloader, which you can access by holding the volume down and power key. But, if what you're trying to say is that you can't access even the bootloader, then one of the limited choices is to download the EVO 3D RUU and flash a stock this way. If this doesn't work, you are one of 2 choices: adb-retarded or screwed. There is piratically no other way, than the choices listed. (IDK, maybe you can try to flash S-OFF with Jbear, and in the process fix your phone. I mean you have nothing to lose )

But, if what you're trying to say is that you can't access even the bootloader, then one of the limited choices is to download the EVO 3D RUU and flash a stock this way. If this doesn't work, you are one of 2 choices: adb-retarded or screwed. There is piratically no other way, than the choices listed. (IDK, maybe you can try to flash S-OFF with Jbear, and in the process fix your phone. I mean you have nothing to lose )

x 2. Also, (and just out of curiosity) did you happen to accidentally leave a PG86IMG.zip file inside your SD card? That could cause something like what you're experiencing too. If so, take the SD Card out, place it in a PC with a card reader, erase (or rename) the "PG86IMG.zip" file, reinsert the SD Card and battery, hold down the VOLUME DOWN and POWER button and see if you can get into bootloader/recover/fastboot menu
