I just unlocked my bootloader and flashed CWMT recovery but whenever I try to boot into recovery the phone simply boots back into the factory Rom. I've tried turning off fastboot in the Rom settings but that didn't seem to help... Any ideas?
Edit: alright I can boot into recovery but it's under factory reset for some reason.adb Reboot recovery doesn't work.
Turn off fastboot. In settings.

Did you try to manually go into recovery?
- turn off phone
-press and hold volume down then press power button until the phone boots into bootloader
- use volume buttons to scroll down to recovery,
- tap power button to select recovery
and it should boot into your custom recovery

That's when it happens. I'll try manually booting into recovery, but it just ends up booting normally.

I've tried both restarting in bootloader and powering down and turning the phone back on in bootloader. Both times, from the bootloader menu, when I select recovery it goes the the 'htc' screen with 'entering recovery' at the top for about 7 seconds then goes black and boots normally.

when you select recovery and it goes to the white htc screen, at the very top does it say.. "entering recovery" ?
If not, you might try using fastboot to push a custom recovery to your phone again...
If it kicks you out of recovery as it boots into it, go into the bootloader, fastboot, and run 'fastboot erase cache' on the computer. Of course, ADB has to be setup first before running that command. I've had this happen to me a few times already, and 'fastboot erase cache' always made it work again.

Hey guys. So, I've had my DNA unlocked, rooted, and had a ROM on it for a while. The SuperHatka ROM I believe it was. I updated to the newest version to update the entire phone with the new OTA update the other day. Tonight I had the bright idea to wipe my phone completely since it didn't do it the first time. Well, I erased literally everything. Now the phone is stuck on the white "HTC quietly brilliant" screen. I can't get it to power off, reboot, etc. It won't be recognized in ADB like it was previously. Can anyone give me step by step instructions on what to do? Please.

Press and hold the power button for approx 15 seconds. Your capacitive buttons should blink and eventually your screen will go black as its powered down. Continue to hold the power button and the vol down key and it should boot into bootloader, from there scroll to recovery via vol keys, press power and it'll boot into recovery. If its a newer recovery it should support adb sideload in which you can adb push a Rom to /sdcard. If not then while in fastboot usb mode you can fastboot flash recovery a newer version of twrp or cwm then adb push in recovery.

Like he said. Press buttons, boot into boot loader, recovery, then you do not need to side load. just do the adb push to your sdcard and flash. sideload is a different command.

I've been in that black hole several times, frozen for various reasons-usually of my own making. I would only add that the time it takes holding in the power button once the icons start flashing at the bottom of the phone varies GREATLY...from a few seconds to several episodes of trying it-bottom line is it will eventually do it. If you have backups you can wipe everything and restore one of them and you will be back up running.
Reviving a dead thread. I have the same issue but when I flash a recovery in fastboot and try to boot to the recovery is shows the recovery splash screen then restarts.

Boot into the bootloader put it in fastboot plug it into your pc. Open a command window where your fastboot and ADB files are and then type
fastboot erase cache
Hit enter
And then flash the recovery and you should be able to boot into it.

OK, with testing I found a solution for the problem
Here the steps what i've done:
1. Load the Flyer with the power supply unit.
2. From PC Commandpromt. Start fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. I've get the message "waiting for devices". I've used a old CWM 4 reciovery Image
3. Now connect the Flyer and Start with "Power + Down". Here was the surprise that now the Bootloop stops and i see now the Boot Menu. So I change here to fastboot and flash the recovery Image new.
4 Rebbot now an voila bo boot more and I can use the normal cwm recovery mechanism to recovery one of my old images... Perfekt
Hi,
I know this has been covered thoroughly, but I have a particular problem that I haven't been able to find a solution for.
I have the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime, MIUI 6. I'm trying to boot into recovery mode either one of two ways: holding down volume up + power, or going through the 'Update' app options. Both times, the same thing happens: The phone starts up with the Mi logo, hangs for about 20 ish seconds, reboots as normal. It doesn't at any stage enter recovery mode. Holding down volume down + power takes me to Fastboot, but it hangs on the fastboot screen infinitely..
Any thoughts?
Chris
are you want to flash something ? try flash with updater app, rename zip file you want to flash to update.zip, and do flash with updater. its will enter recovery mode and flah zip file

I have tried that, same thing happens.
To clarify, whenever I try to enter recovery mode, the phone starts up, vibrates, Mi logo appears, hangs for about 10-15 seconds, turns off, turns on, vibrates, Mi logo appears, "Powered by Android" appears, phone starts up normal.

Hmm I will try to install that app. Right now the phone wont get past the boot screen, it is just hanging on the Mi logo and Powered by Android.

Try to flash the stock recovery.
Then you should be able to boot into stock recovery and wipe all data.
After that the phone should boot.
At least that worked for me

If you have rooted phone, try to flash recovery (TWRP) over terminal, with dd.
You have trashed the recovery partition. Reboot in fastboot mode (Vol- + PWR) and reflash TWRP.img via fastboot on a PC.
Command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Rename the twrp.img to recovery.img or change the name used in the command. There are plenty of tutorials out there on how to use fastboot.
Do not let the phone boot up after flashing!!!! You will end up back with the same problem. Hold down Vol+ to boot into Recovery mode for the first time.
I just officialy unlocked my bootloader because I Can't enter EDL mode somehow. Tried everything, EDL scripts, adb, holding the volume buttons...
The phone always restart the the system (it works fine). This is weird because I can't do factory reset either, it always boots back into my system.
Can somebody help me in this?
If you have an unlocked bootloader, why do you need to go to EDL mode instead just use fastboot.
Care to explain better?
The issue is: I flashed TWRP with fastboot. When I try to boot into it (Holding Volume up + power) i just get back into system.
This is just weird, as I can't do a Factory Reset either!
Download edl7.zip file from xda thread and go into fastboot mode and double tap on cmd file...your device will go in edl mode (red led blink)

EDL is for flashing fastboot files for locked bootloader as flashing through fastboot doesn't work. If your bootloader is unlocked you can just use fastboot. For TWRP are you getting any error while flashing it, if not you should boot into TWRP by holding volume down and power button with your phone turned off.

Hey man. Thank you for your help. But I think that I'm not being clear on what my issue is. I have some experience on flashing twrp and rooting. But never faced something like this before.
I can't even do a factory reset (from the settings menu) as the phone restarts and just goes back to the system. I flashed twrp but when I try to boot into it I get back to the system. I try to reboot into bootloader via the update menu and the phone resets and just get back to system.
It's just as if I can't acess the bootloader menu at all.
That never happened, try holding volume button before pressing power button. You can also try it through adb, make sure you have usb debugging turned on. For fastboot use adb reboot bootloader and for recovery adb reboot recovery

Yeah, tried that too. This is just way too weird to be normal. I'm sure that I did everything right.
please need help very urgently. i was trying to install a custom rom in my phone today. unlocking bootloader was successful, installing twrp was successful too and i was very happy. when i tried to boot into the recovery it turned off and never booted. tried restarting (volume up+power button), pressing the power button but nothing happens. it's still in the "off" state. please don't think it is a bootloop. the phone doesn't turn on and i can't see the logo. seems like it is permanently turned off

Sometimes it is that the screen is blank but TWRP is there though, when you are presumably in TWRP, connect your device to the PC and try with ADB commands to see what happens, let us know.

Not this way, press the buttons to supposedly enter to TWRP, do all of them blindly. Start with pressing the three buttons simultaneously for about 12 seconds (this will power off your device) then immediately press the volume up + PWR button for about 7 seconds (to enter to TWRP), then type the commands.
Pay attention if something is displayed in your screen and if you hear some sound when connecting to PC.
