I have a question I have not seen asked yet. Maybe someone here has more insight. My replacement 3vo came with hboot 1.5 so I unlocked using HTC's method and flashed TWRP. The nandroid I made after flashing was of the stock rom and stock kernel. Now, I have flashed MIUI and tiamat's kernel. That was a pain because recovery doesn't have permission to flash the boot partition unless you use fastboot to boot the recovery image. If I were to attempt to restore my nandroid, wouldn't it screw up the restoration due to the boot partition not being flashed?
What about when switching between an ASOP rom to Sense rom or vice versa?
Should all nandroids be restored from fastbooting a recovery image?

Just use fastboot if you have to do a nandroid you'll be ok!

Yeah, I had suspected that would be the case. I figured this would come up in the future and need to be addressed at some point. I may try to restore my sense nandroid to confirm it won't work unless you use fastboot.

From my experience i dont think u need to boot to recovery through fastboot to make a working/good nandroid backup... However when you want to restore a back up through nandroid you must boot to recovery from fastboot or else it wont wont. One thing i find strange is that i can flash the sengry nightly rom without fastboot through recovery and it works fine but i can not do it to any other roms..
Now, does booting recovery from the fastboot menu work the same as sending the commands through fastboot using pc?

Do you mean booting recovery through bootloader without using fastboot command (With the phone connected to a computer)? If yes, then it doesn't work the same... As booting to recovery with fastboot (phone connecting to computer using fastboot command) allow you to flash Roms/Custom Kernels to your boot partition and using bootloader to boot recovery without fastboot doesn't allow that. Hope this help..

I know pulling the boot.img from the rom is the old way to do things then wiping in recovery and flashing the boot img in fastboot... Then flash the rom in recovery....
Or you could just fasboot boot recovery.img and wipe and flash the rom... without pulling the boot.img
Doesn't these two methods work just the same minus the fact that fastboot boot recovery is just quicker to flash a whole rom....
This is for the hboot 1.5 users.....
I know about flash gui im just asking about using ADB and recovery flashing.....
Either way works fine doesn't it...>< ?
Yes, booting into recovery vía fastboot allows simultaneous flashing of kernel/ROM.
You may also flash a custom kernel zip file in the same fashion.

Ya that is the advantage of using the recovery via fastboot.... But other then that they both get the job done... Minus that fastboot lets you flash the whole rom instead of taking the boot img out.... along with custom kernels....

There's also a app called Flash Image GUI that works pretty good...
I am using TWRP 2.0 but I can't flash a new ROM. I currently have WARMTWOPOINTTHREE ROM backup, but I tried to flash a new ROM after wiping everything, and when it re-boots it just goes to the white HTC screen and then goes black and just repeats it self over and and over.
so i take the battery out and boot my back up from recovery. what do i need to do to be able to get back to installing whatever ROM i want.
i am a obviously a noob so whatever help anyone can provide will be appreciated.
i was trying to flash the ZR3D 1.2 ROM by the way.
If your phone is a gsm version try this rom:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1267131
I just installed it on my evo 3d and works smooth
no its CDMA
I would go to Cwm 4.0 for recovery had nothing but issues using the latest twrp . Worked fine for awhile then it didn't wipe right to causing weird issues . Funky things after the rom flashed .

need more info in regards to how you flashed your rom but at this point im willing to bet you have lost your Boot.IMG and also did you use GUI app from market i did this and that how i lost my Boot.IMG and if so you will have to go to your pc and exract the Boot.img from the rom you flashed and after you have exratced file go to that folder and scrooll down until you see the Boot.IMG file and you will have to copy and past it into the folder that you used when you first rooted you phone and go to the start menu and typ cmd and you will have connect your evo to usb and typ fastboot flash boot boot.img and this will it boot right up after you flash the boot.img file

I'm on 4ext right now but the guys says the best is install through the pc or you will end in a bootloop. I tried with flash gui but the phone went in a bootloop as some guys said.
Make a nandroid first. Then wipe cache & davlik cache and then flash the zip.

boot recovery through fastboot using "fastboot boot <recovery name>.img" and flash the kernel.
But IMO , if that kernel didnt worked with Flash Image GUI, it will not work with "fastboot boot <recovery name>.img" either. Just try and post the results.

I have a friend and he showed me the fully working kernel on stock ROM for 2.17 @2.1 ghz!!! Quadrant rises up to 5200+ and antutu up to 8300+. I'm running meanrom right now but Idk if that matters. Also one explanation is that the kernel he gave to me was a wrong one.
From my experience I used the GUI app and thats when the problems started using that app I lost my boot.IMG and that causes the bootloop just flash the Rom the normal way and if you want to flash a different kernal you can just make sure you flash the kernal before rebooting for the first time

make sure Fast Boot is NOT selected in Settings/Power. Then turn the phone COMPLETELY OFF and boot to Hboot then fastboot and flash recovery again. Then power off and reboot to hboot. If it says *Tampered* at the top your all set, if it doesn't, then recovery didn't take. I had to flash recovery 6 or 8 times, but I think the deciding factor was when I turned fast boot off in Settings.
Ok. In order to flash a boot.img do we have to rename it to boot.img.zip ? I'm trying to completely understand how to flash the boot.img using HTC dumlock rather than having to use the computer all the time for fast boot.

If you are rooted already with a stock recovery, skip to the second half of the next paragraph.
What you want to do is boot twrp instead of flashing it at first. You do this by using the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" where as "recovery.img" is the name you have assigned to your twrp recovery image. Once you have booted into twrp, reboot system. You will be prompted to root the device (assuming you are not already rooted), select yes. Now that you are rooted, download this app. In the app settings change the backup format to .img, and then backup your recovery. Now you will have a copy of your stock recovery. Now that you have that, go back and flash twrp using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img", whereas "recovery.img" refers to whatever you have named your twrp recovery image.
all of this is assuming that you have adb setup on your computer, and a good working knowledge of how to use it.
What if I'm already rooted with twrp recovery, is it still possible?

You still have stock recovery? If so, it sounded like you did fastboot boot TWRP (instead of fastboot flash TWRP).
In which case, you can just then use TWRP to backup the recovery partition. You don't need a seperate app or root to do this.
I flashed twrp using fastboot flash recovery twrp but I'm still using the stock rom, but since I flashed twrp that means my stock recovery img is gone right?

Yes, you can only have one recovery at a time. TWRP custom recovery overwrote the stock recovery. You can't back up what isn't there anymore.
But you can always return to stock by RUU, if needed.
