Cannot flash recovery - HTC Droid DNA

I flash the recovery with the fastboot command. When I go into the recovery is shows either the teamwin or cwm screen, whichever I flash, then loops back to the HTC screen. Help!

Go into boot loader and erase cache

Put the phone into fastboot mode open a command window and type fastboot erase cache and then try to flash the recovery and it will boot into it.

fastboot or zip
did you flash a zip for CWM or fastboot flash it? I had best results when I "fastboot flash ....." then "fastboot reboot" and held down volume immediately after the screen went blank..down to android recovery and up to boot into CWM..
I figured it out thnxs

have you atleast unlocked your bootloader is the first question...and if so easiest, do you have root access?... way i found to flash a recovery is like this:
have a fully charged battery
boot into your hboot screen and select fastboot
plug the phone into the computer with the data cable
once the phone is loaded open a terminal or ms-dos window
navigate to where you have the fastboot.exe command and make sure you have your new recovery as "recovery.img"
then type in fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and then let it write it to your phone then unplug it and reboot into your new recovery

first you have to write your recovery to that partition and like if you download teamwin recovery rename it to recovery.img etc....then you can boot into the new recovery
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
(This will reboot you into boot loader)
Then to flash recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name.img
(Change "name" to the name of your recovery. )
Then you should be good.

If you are trying to flash 4ext, you can install the app and run it (see my signature). No need for adb.

And what does that tell you?
To me it says you can't use something before you have it installed.
If you don't have your system PATH pointed to the fastboot executable, then you must run the commands from the folder where you have the fastboot file saved.

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.

Is this exactly the same as the CWM Recovery in the international HTC One M7 forum?

Nexus 7 Meltdown

Okay, so yesterday I was flashing from SlimBean to stock 4.3 on my Nexus 7. Okay, good no problem. After that I was using WugFresh's toolkit to update from 4.3-4.4 since my bootloader is unlocked and it wouldn't take the OTA. The cmd prompt said something akin to:
boot.sig not in archive
Recover.sig not in archive
And then it froze, for a bit before giving me the end message about the first reboot taking 5-10 minutes. OK, cool. I was still in fastboot mode, so I went ahead and volume upped to start. The Google image flashed, along with the unlock symbol, and in very tiny text at the top right says Booting Failed.... On the same screen off to the right is the arrow that says start, just like in bootloader. I'm freaking out because this is basically brand new, and I don't wanna NAFTA buy another.
Oh, and it's the 2012 Grouper/Nasaki WiFi only model.
Thanks in advance for any and all advice.

Just boot back to bootloader and flash a custom recovery through fastboot
Then boot back to this recovery and flash ROM of choice
If you want to go back to stock fully then drop the tool kits and just flash stock and relock bootloader

Alright I did that, erasing the non existent recovery as well. Now when I try to boot, its stuck at the Google logo. When I enter bootloader and select reboot recovery, it just goes to the screen with Google logo and the fastboot arrow

So through fastboot you ran
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
And output said OK to both and the recovery you used was for grouper correct? The md5sum checked out right?
If so you may need to flash a factory image from google
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
This time
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot update nameofupdate.zip
Oh and you may need to relock bootloader before update

Alright, so after i flashed the recovery, I attempted to boot into recovery. I am stuck at the google logo. But let me try the rest of the commands you gave me really quick.
Oh, and when I downloaded the factory image, I got a .tgz file, not a zip.
Sent from my GNEX running SlimBean
So the recovery.img you are flashing through fastboot says it worked but when you boot to it you get nothing? Is this correct? What recovery image are you flashing?
Can you try
fastboot boot recovery.img
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Alright, I figured it out. The recovery was flashing right, but the file I had wouldn't stick for some reason. So I found the grouper TWRP .IMG file, flashed it, and it stayed. After that, it was as simple as pushing the file and flashing it all. Thank you so much for all of your help in this matter. Hope to see ya around the forums!!!
