I can't seem to get my phone to boot into recovery. Does anyone have any helpful tips on how to get it to do this? It is rooted using the HTC dev unlock, and clockworkmod recovery (should) be flashed onto it. I have already disabled fast boot.

Dont use CWM, its not working right far as I know. Also you can use the app to boot into recovery. Cwm has a option should be second down in the list. I suggest you install goo inside me and install the open recovery script. It's TWRP. You can also boot into recovery from that app

I was using revolutionary recovery which worked great. Then from Rom Manager I decided to install clockwork mod recovery to make using rom manager more efficient. Well since I've done that i cant boot into any recovery at all. I can get into bootloader but when I go into recovery the phone just restarts. Running Olympus titan XE and was trying to install HD 3.0

reflash the recovery
I have a few times. I haven't tried through adb yet though since I'm not home.

Turns out it was just a bad kernel flash. Reflashed and all is well now

Just fast boot flash cwm image. I accidentally flashed CWM while I had TWRP recovery installed. And I did this.!

Hey I was wondering about this too. Where can I get regular CWM for Evo 3D instead of the revolutionary one? I would like to flash it through Fastboot or Flash Image GUI but I can't seem to find it anywhere to download...
i have recently unlocked my 3d via the htc method. I had viper rom and the stock kernel on the phone. I tried to install a new kernel(anthrax infected v9). I wiped the cache and the dalvik prior to installing the kernel, post install.zip the phone is in a continuous loop. Performed wipe of all data. Tried flashing rom and kernel again, it failed again. Asked a couple of friends what might be causing this. Found out my phone has hboot 1.5 that requires flash through fastboot. How do i fix this, please help.
Need to boot in recovery with ADB or GUI app
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Get into fastboot by taking out battery then [power+volume down] till it loads. Once there connect to computer and use adb and type "fastboot boot recovery.img" where recovery is the name of your chosen recovery. The recovery file must be in the same folder as the adb.
Once in recovery you can flash anything. Once you have booted a ROM I would recommend downloading flash image gui from the Market and use it to flash kernels or ROM with custom kernel. Good luck. hboot 1.50 makes things just a bit more trickier.
Recovery file could be any where you want "!

NOTE: If you took the latest 651.5 update, you have to stick with kernels that have that as a base (for now).
You are likely not flashing the kernel/rom correctly. See the Guide/flashing notes in my signature for a walkthru that will likely help.
I have a similar situation. Had viper rom up and running and then it just up and quit and now it's in a continual boot loop. I'm no where near a windows CPU that I can use fastboot for the next 40 days. How can i fix with my tablet?

So in other words I'm screwed? Isn't there a way to use my tablet running android to push the boot image to the phone?

flashed cwm recovery through rom manager on LG L3..if i uninstall rom manager will it affect cwm recovery..means will it remove cwm recovery..????
No it wont delete cwm
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
It will not delete the recovery but then without Rom manager you have to do cwm manually
we should polite enough to press thanks for everyone helped uS..
you are dead when you stop learning new things..
It won't affect the recovery, as stated above. I only use Rom manager to flash the recovery for me, then I uninstall it and everything is manual from then on.
I don't trust it. My first experience with it was a bootloop and back when I was a noob, I got so freaked out. It's also better to get used to manual recovery work because if you can't boot into the system one day, then you gotta boot into recovery and fix it yourself

So I tried to use this website to get dumlock. But I ended up stuck in recovery mode. Everytime it boots it boots in recovery mode. How do I get out of it? I am s-on and my bootloader is unlocked and I have 4ext recovery.
Make sure smart flash is enabled in 4ext
-its in one of the menus
Wipe all your partitions except SD
Reboot recovery
Flash a new ROM or restore backup
I believe 'dumb lock' is a feature of twrp

I enabled smart flash, wiped all partitions except SD, rebooted recovery. By flash do you mean install the zip file and reboot? Sorry Im a bit new to ROMs
I sent you a pm
Yes after you reboot recovery
Install zip from SD
Alternatively you could restore a backup, assuming you made one

Have you looked at all at the "faq's" at the top of the forum pages, maybe the "please read", or the "important threads?"
Perhaps do a little searching using the "Search" button?

You have to open the ROM zip and pull the boot.img out and flash it using fast boot cimands or if you can get into your android system using your original backup....then you can install 4ext recovery which will flash the boot img for you with smart flash...sound like you have a kernel problem

I know i have to flash the boot.img after i install the ROM, i will try to install the 4EXT Recovery, but i don't have my phone rooted, i don't know how to do it, but i will investigate!
can you get into your android system or are you stuck in recovery? I can also provide you the root zip file if you need to flash it in recovery
