Did you boot your recovery using fastboot? If not, that's the problem. Unless you boot recovery using fastboot, then your boot partition won't get flashed, thus meaning that your kernel doesn't get flashed. That means you'll bootloop. On your computer, open up a command prompt. Navigate to the folder that contains your recovery.img. Then do "adb reboot bootloader" (w/o the quotes). Then do "fastboot boot recovery.img" (or whatever the name of your recovery.img is...it may not be 'recovery.img'. If it's twrp2.img, or whatever, type that). That should boot your phone into recovery, and from there you'll be good. Your boot partition will be flashed. So try booting to recovery that way and then try restoring a nandroid. If that doesn't work, boot to recovery the way I said, and try flashing a rom from scratch, after a full wipe of course.

Download and install HTC Sync for the EVO3D here: http://dl3.htc.com/application/sync/htc_sync_3.0.5617_us.exe
you might have to reboot your pc, but then it should recognize it.

Everytime I try to it just reboots the phone. Im currently using cwm and have tried flashing the other recovery renamed as PH98IMG.zip and it will not overwrite it. Any help would be appreciated. I've also tried fastboot, guess I wasn't typing in the right command

fastboot command to flash a recovery. type "fastboot devices" to make sure your computer is seeing your phone in fastboot.
"Fastboot flash recovery nameoftherecovery.img" You will need to unzip the file and pull the actual image file out, and put it in the same folder your fastboot file is in.
I did that. I typed fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and it doesn't take it
I want to flash the amon recovery on top of the cwm
The recovery image is named... recovery.img
What else can I do to get my phone into recovery ?
Have you tried "abd reboot recovery"?

in fastboot type "fastboot boot recovery.img" then it will boot straight into the recovery image that you want to load. It isn't permanent, but it can get you a working phone in the mean time
So whenever I try to flash CM10, I cannot get past the white HTC Screen. I have wiped the system, wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache, and then installed the CM10 zip and the Gapps zip. However, after rebooting, i just get stuck in the white HTC screen and I end up having to pull the battery and restoring my nandroid. I am using twrp. I am on S-ON, I think it has something to do with not having a PH98IMG.zip file? Is there one for CM10? Am I doing something wrong in my installation process?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Download the ROM on a computer and extract the boot.IMG to your platform tools directory (assuming you have SDK installed) then go into your command prompt and CD your way to platform tools and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" do this after flashing the ROM. Then boot. Reboot to recovery then flash gapps (if you flash gapps and a ROM at the same the then it is very buggy)

Thanks for the quick response. So after i flash the ROM, do i reboot and then type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" or do i just leave the device in recovery and then type the command? I suppose its the latter, gonna try it right now
THANKS

How do I get my phone to stay permanently on TWRP? I've got it to flash and can run it fine. The problem is that everytime I reboot it goes back to RA revamped...It's annoying as ****. I've tried searching and can't find a solid answer.
s-on, rooted, know how to flash roms and everything through adb etc. why the hell won't it just stay on twrp?

Go download GooManager from make. Install open recovery inside of it. It will flash TWRP.
Or just download TWRP and put the recovery.img in your adb directory and execute "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" from fastboot and it's a done deal!

I did that. Worked fine but the next time I went to do anything in recovery it was RA again...does it every time I try to switch. Is there a specific order I need to do this in? Clean wipe/recovery/ROM/kernel?

No, not really any specific order at all... Sure you are using FLASH and not BOOT in the fastboot command?
If you are sure, then you must have a PHxxIMG.zip file on the SDcard of Amon Ra that is flashing itself on every boot or something, remove any PHxxIMG.zip files from the SD card and try again. Flashing a ROM does not replace the recovery image, so something else is doing it and I can't think of anything else that would cause that behavior.

Fast boot flash recovery....I'll check but I think the IMG are all deleted. I'll have give it try after work not by a PC at the moment.

Had an img of Amon ra I was over looking. Just going too fast and not looking everything over I think. All is good now!

How long, at least historically, does it take for AT&T to release an RUU for our device? I have unlocked my bootloader but I am hesitant to proceed without knowing I have a fallback to stock system image and recovery. Thanks for any input, and I understand that the releases are typically unpredictable but I suppose asking for a general ball park figure!

wont be for awhile if at all... could do fastboot boot recovery nameofrecovery.img this should boot into recovery then make back up then youll have stock everything as a backup...

So there is a way to make a full backup with the stock HTC Recovery?
No the command i said temp boots into twrp doesnt actually flash it, and you can make a back up that way.
fastboot boot recovery nameofrecovery.img (temp boot into recovery)
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img (would flash a custom recovery)

Ah, I see what you're saying, So I would need to place the TWRP.img into the directory from which I'm running commands yes?
Correct...reboot to bootloader and run the fastboot boot recovery nameofrecovery.img command

So I tried these commands here and its giving the error "cannot load 'recovery' " so it looks like fastboot is looking for an .img to follow the 'boot' command:
fastboot boot recovery.img -
At least that is what I figured, I haven't tried it because I'm timid, but if I execute that command ^ will it get me to the recovery image for a backup without derping something?
Edit: Did a little bit more research / sacked up and went for it. Just booted up and rooted without installing custom recovery which is exactly what I wanted to do. Just wanna debloat the phone myself with root access!
Thanks for the help!
Hey guys.
SGP312 model here, unlocked bootloader.
not sure what i did wrong here - i got to Fastboot mode and the blue light is on, when i run "Fastboot devices" i get the device name.
so i followed the explanation here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...pment/ub-twrp-v3-2-1-xperia-tablet-z-t3735110
and did: "fastboot flash boot twrp-3.2.1-0-pollux_windy.img"
however, now my phone won't boot, and when i type "adb reboot recovery" i get "error: device not found" (even thought "Fastboot devices" gives me a response")
i tried fixing it with Flashtool, and everything works well until i get to "Wait for Flashmode" and im instructed to "unplug, power off, pres vol down, plug in USB cable" - this simply doesn't do anything =X
so.... how do i get out of this? all i want to do is install one of the newer roms from the forum (either Marshmallow or Oreo)
can anyone help me get out of this issue i've gotten myself into?

you flashed recovery to boot. So only recovery exists in boot section.
Of course tablet won't boot afterwards, as there is not kernel.
Download custom rom you want to install, unpack boot.img from roms zip files and flash via "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Afterwards enter recovery and flash custom rom zip, gapps or whatever you need.

I did the same thing knowing the outcome and then successfully flashed Lineage.
For future reference, with the Xperia Tablet z where should I be flashing the recovery if not to boot:
"fastboot flash *What goes here?* twrp-3.x.x-0-pollux_windy.img"

where twrp.img is your recovery image.
