Rooting and recovery problems - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Hey all,
I got my HTC One yesterday, and this morning i went to root the phone. I followed the steps in Hansoon's AIO toolkit and successfully unlocked the bootloader then flashed the CWM recovery. Then, when attempting to install superuser, i could not get my phone in to recovery mode. Every single time i either select recovery mode from hboot, or attempt to boot in to recover from my PC via the AIO my phone would boot as normal, and not enter recovery.
I assume that my recovery flash did not work correctly, but i could be wrong. Does anybody have any advice?

G2 Recovery Disaster - Help!!! ><

Early today, I was working on a G2 trying to get it rooted with a custom ROM installed. I managed to root the phone and disable the bootloader security. From here, I attempted to install clockwork recovery via rom manager... here's where the disaster starts.
Everything seemed to be going well (no errors), so I tried to load a custom ROM. The Rom installation started but failed partway through. This is when I noticed that the clockwork recovery wasn't working properly. It was flickering and none of the options worked (screen just flashed or turned black if you selected anything). So at this point, the phone would not boot since the ROM installation didn't complete, and I had a buggy recovery image installed.
Unfortunately, the fun doesn't stop here. I figured that I should load the PC10IMG.zip and start from scratch... bad idea. This flashed the bootloader (relocking it) then failed-- leaving me with a bad ROM, bad recovery image, and a locked bootloader. Luckily for me, I was able to use adb via the buggy recovery to unlock the bootloader again.
At this point, I got a bit antsy and jumped the gun. I decided to use fastboot to erase and load a new recovery image. Unfortunately, I realized that I didn't have a recovery.img file to flash... just after I used the fastboot erase recovery command.
I'm hoping that someone here has a recovery.img file compatible with the T-Mobile G2 so I can flash the recovery partition with fastboot. If anyone has any better ideas I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Install amon recovery. It's much better then clockword. Do it using adb
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
Just an update. I couldn't get into adb but I was able to flash clockwork via fastboot. For whatever reason, the amon recovery would go through. Nevertheless, I installed cyanogen using clockwork and everything is gravy!

[Q] Stuck at boot logo after successful unlock

Hi all,
So I have an AT&T Atrix, was previously running 4.5.91 and I successfully unlocked the phone and had it booting. Like a total moron, I forgot to do a backup, and after attempting to flash CM7 onto it, the phone now stays at the boot logo and won't go any further. If anyone has anything they can do to help me, I would so appreciate it!
Thank you!!!
Edit: I know I need an SBF with pudding to go back to, but I'm having issues finding the proper one. If that's all I need to fix it, a link to the proper one would be appreciated.
Have you used one click recovery for unlocking, if yes then most probably the tenfar recovery that came with the one click root program is the culprit. Just flash rom racer recovery through fastboot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500
If you want an easier option, run the one click root program and select the option which says install cwm recovery. After that boot back into recovery and flash twrp recovery from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961707, after that reboot and flash the CM7 rom. You can also flash CWM touch recovery the same way as TWRP link to it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1475444
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to know. It worked perfectly!

Trouble installing TWRP after s-off

I got my phone s-off, but now I am trying to install TWRP through goomanager and it isn't installing the recovery. I'm not sure I am missing a step? Such as super user? It's been awhile since I've installed a ROM on a phone... I'm a bit rusty. When I try and boot recovery after installing twrp, it shows a picture of a phone and a red triangle on the screen? Something isn't working...
Thanks!

Goo Manager requires root access to work. Try going to the TWRP website, find the recovery you want, download it to the root of your external SD card, rename it PJ75IMG.zip (make sure you don't have an extra .zip in the file name) and boot into the bootloader and follow the prompts.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the bootloader have to be unlocked to flash recovery through the bootloader or does S-off trump it being locked?
Once you get recovery loaded you can flash the superuser binary in recovery and you should be set.
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much
Did you select open recovery script ?? Also here's the website

[Q] Rooting Troubles

So I am a first time rooter, so I'll try my best to use the proper terms and whatnot.
Anyways, I have an unlocked HTC One X+ that I am trying to root. I was using the AIO kit by Hasoon2000. I had my bootloader successfully unlocked, and so I proceeded to continue with rooting. I thought I pushed the SuperSU.zip to the device, because the cmd line said it was successful. So I booted into recovery mode, made a backup, and then when to flash the SuperSU.zip file. However, I could not find it in the file explorer in recovery mode.. so I went to push the file to the phone again, but now it says device not found. The only thing I can think that's happened is my USB debugging got turned off... which is bad. So is SuperSU.zip in my phone somewhere, or am I stuck with a phone that can only go into recovery mode?
Thanks for any help!
I have now similar problem too...
actually I had rooted successfully, but after many failed CM11 installation attempts, I decided to relock the bootloader, in order to update the Firmware. But it didn't work too and I came the way back again, in which I unlocked the bootloader with Unlock Token etc. again. Now the bootloader is unlocked but apparently not rooted!?! I can't push superuser via adb because **Device is not found** and I can only go to TWRP Recovery and bootloader...
COULD SOMEONE HELP??!
PS: when i press the reboot in TWRP, it says that "the phone seems not to be rooted, do you want to install the SuperUser? and when I accept it... it reboots only and nothing does change!
well... im not sure what I did differently but it finally recignized the device!! And now I managed to get everything installed... weird!
