Just as the title says,I've got an HTC One & I've already unlocked the bootloader but had to give the computer I was using up before I could install recovery or SU. SO, is there any possible way to get a recovery onto my One without a computer? Then I can just flash a rooted ROM. I am also still S-ON. Thank you XDA Community!

I'm not super familiar with the HTC one but I believe you need to use fastboot to install a recovery, unlocking the bootloader allows you to flash to this partition. You could try to use a terminal emulator if your stock ROM supports the flash image binary but I'm doubtful it will.
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
This would be if you name the recovery image recovery.img and have it on the root of your sdcard, but can't recall if you phone has an external SD or not so check the path
Or you could try dd commands, this is more risky and I wouldn't recommend it
Really I would suggest waiting until you got to a PC that has fastboot installed on it, then in just a few minuets you could flash a recovery and ROM and be on your way

Rooted my original 3d easily. Had to order a replacement and unlocked the bootloader with htcdev method. Now I cannot seem to flash recovery. Tried twrp 1.1, 2.0, 2.1 using PG86IMG through the bootloader.. finds the file , gets to parsing then stops....any suggestions?

H-boot 1.5?
If so check the forum there are a few work arounds. I unrooted and now want to root it back but not sure what version to use. Tried the htcdev unlock but my phone still shows locked. ! good thing is it is still s-off though and hope that will make the rooting process easier. Go to the Dev section and search there for the information to root.
Maybe try a different recovery file
Have you tried any other recovery files? I believe i had the issue too when trying to flash recovery, I ended up having to use CWM by revolutionary.

a few things here....
your NAND internal memory is not unlocked (meaning you are "s-on") so you cannot flash recoveries through the bootloader if i am not mistaken.
install adb, and use adb to flash recovery.
either way, using adb will get the job done.
here is the command:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img
fastboot reboot
My understanding is the best recovery to use with HBOOT 1.5 is 4EXT as it allows you to SmartFlash ROM's with S-On. Check that out first and see if it helps with your issues.

He is HTC unlocked, which unlocks the NAND without touching the S-ON flag. Only the boot partition remains locked.
@OP
You cant flash unsigned PG86IMGs. So flash the recovery using fastboot.
Put your recovery.img in fastboot folder and Boot into boot loader > select fastboot > connect to PC > open command prompt > navigate to fastboot folder > type "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without quotes).
then check if it works...
hope this helps.................

Use Rom Manager for best results when backing/restoring...
USB OTG Info:
USB OTG will show up as external_sd. If external_sd is not mounting, reboot recovery. You must enter recovery with usb already inserted.
Installation:
Inscrutions can be found here @ http://www.techgeekal.com/2013/03/1...ckworkmod-touch-recovery-v6-0-2-8-on-htc-one/(outdated)
Unlock bootloader at http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/
Make sure fastboot is unchecked in power options and turn phone completely off
Boot into HBOOT then Fastboot
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
OR
Flash via Rom Manager(must have root already).

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.

One method of flashing Clockworkmod Recovery without using a computer that requires you to be rooted, is to use terminal emulator (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm) and the "dd" command. To flash the recovery image you can run the following command:
Code:
dd if=path/to/recovery.img of=path/to/recovery/partition
Path to the recovery image is where on your device you have placed the Clockworkmod recovery.img you downloaded and path to recovery partition is the block that the recovery partition is stored on. To figure out which partition is the recovery partition you can run a command similar to:
Code:
ls -l /dev/block/platform/{platform specific processor directory}/by-name
This will allow you to flash Clockworkmod Recovery without a computer provided you have root access. Let me know if you still have questions .

TeamWin Recovery Project 2.6.3
So it took a little finesse but we have working TWRP now with f2fs support and touch working.
Device Tree Source: https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/
Background and geeky ****:
First off we need DTB (Device Tree Binary) for touch support. The X bootloader adds the dtb onto anything flashed to boot partition. So I built recovery and fastboot it to the boot partition. Ooops image is too big. Recompile kernel with xz compression and loose about 3 MB then it flashes to boot partition. Then I just "dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/twrp263.img" and voila we have a working flashable recovery.img with DTB appended
OK, so on to what you came for:
Download: http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/MotoX/twrp263.img
Reboot to booloader and:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp263.img
Hope you guys enjoy!
Special thanks to Dees Troy for the source and for implementing my mkfs.f2fs into TWRP.

Hey brudda, I just got my Dev Edition through Verizon and I can unlock bootloader through the moto website but was just wondering what steps do I need to take to get TWRP running. Do I unlock bootloader first with the moto website but then how do I obtain root? Right now I have root through JCase's PawnMyMoto exploit. Now do I need to start from scratch and get rid of his exploit so I won't be rooted anymore? Sometimes I think I should just wait until a dev has created a nice boot loader unlock, root and flash custom recovery tool.
Sent from my XT1060 using Xparent Cyan Tapatalk 2
You just unlock through moto website and fastboot recovery. It will ask you if you want to root when you reboot, if you're not rooted. Or you can flash the superuser of your vice in recovery. No exploit needed when unlocked.

Ok so, I should get rid of the root I'm on and go to moto and unlock bootloader, then in fastboot go to recovery and from there obtain root. Then finally I can flash TWRP. RIGHT?

You don't have to unroot unless you want to.
1. Go to moto bootloader unlock site follow the steps to unlock bootloader.
2. Fastboot flash recovery twrp263.img
3. Boot into recovery. If you are not rooted it will ask you if you want to root when you exit.

Guys it's been a little while since I've used abd so I just wanna make sure I got this right. After unlocking the bootloader at moto website, I download the twrp image file and put it in the same adb folder where fastboot is (within adb folders), then shift + rt click, open command window and push the twrp image file. It's that correct? No YouTube videos yet, huh?
Thanks in advance!

You do not push the image to your phone, you flash it from your computer.
To boot into bootloader mode (fastboot) you can use adb (adb reboot recovery) or hold the power button and volume down for about 5 seconds.
the fastboot command you must issue is fastboot flash recovery <image_name>.img

You need to make sure the twrp img file is in the same folder that your fastboot.exe is in. Open a command prompt. Using the CD command navigate to that folder. Then use the fastboot command listed replacing the entire "<image_name>" with the file name for the recovery.
Side note - once rooted, for a quick no nonsense method to boot into fastboot / recovery, you can install a simple little app called Quick Boot from the Play store.
Okay so I unlocked my bootloader using the toolkit but I dont want to flash a custom recovery, I like the stock one. Is there anyway I can root it using the stock recover?
You can do a temporary recovery image boot.
You must know fastboot commands and must download a recovery image and a super SU zip.
1. Boot into bootloader
2. Fastboot boot recovery.img
3. Once in recovery, MAKE A BACKUP
4. Install SuperSU.zip
5. Reboot
6. Check root once rebooted
You will retain your stock recovery, and your backup will be of the stock system. This will also not give you a tampered flag, at least in my experience
