Okay about a month ago I root my gf evo 3d , she has hboot 1.5 so I followed the steps on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239821.
Everything has been working fine up until about a week ago , her phone started running hot and the battery would drain really quick with barely any usage. So my plan was to do a factory restart and full wipe and reinstall the rom fresh but when I tried to get into recovery the phone just shuts off , then goes to the boot screen then after the boot screen the phone just restarts itself. I even tried to do a factory reset from the phones menu options and the same things happens. The ways I tried getting into recovery are by using the shutdown menu options (hold power , reboot , recovery) , I've also tried rom manager and last I tried getting to recovery from bootloader and nothing seems to work.
I am completely lost PLEASE! HELP!

You should reflash your recovery to TWRP using fastboot. Then boot into recovery using fastboot. From there you should be able to do a complete wipe and flash a ROM. It is outlined in the thread you linked OP and second post. Feel free to come into the d3rp q+a thread in my sig if you need more help.
It worked thanks you

As a heads up to some of the inner workings.
All the methods you listed are correct methods of booting into the recovery. ROM Manager selecting boot recovery, booting into the bootloader and selecting recovery and also adb shell, reboot recovery.
The boot order goes: bootloader -> kernel -> recovery. Once you see the HTC screen or whatever custom splash screen is loaded, you know the device is now booting the kernel. At this point, if the device hangs on the splash screen or reboots again to the splash screen, something is wrong with the kernel "recovery" itself.
If you get this rebooting to splash screen or hanging on splash screen two or three times in a row, that should be sufficient to know, you have correctly booted the device into recovery mode and the next step is to reflash the recovery, essentially reloading it.
We can speculate on how/why the recovery became corrupt on your device, but in the end, these things sometimes just happen to no intentional fault of the user.
Hopefully this doesn't happen again, but if it does, hopefully this extra information will help prevent a bit of frustration the next time around!

So you mean, stuck at the splash screen(HTC with white screen) and reboot again and again is because of the recovery destroyed? My phone stuck at the splash screen for about 10 seconds and then reboot again and again. I have tried to flash many recovery images, includeing twrp 1.0.3, twrp 1.1.1, cwm-1.0.4, cwm-1.0.5, cwm-5.0.2, all failed to boot up into recovery:-(
Thanks in advance!
Hello all,
I have followed several tutorials here on XDA, and even more video tutorials on YouTube, but I am stuck at the seemingly simple task of rebooting into recovery. I've rooted every Android device I have ever had, but this one is throwing me off...
I flash TWRP (from adb), erase cache, and then when I'm still in the bootloader, I go to bootloader>recovery and then for a split second I see the HTC logo with the pink "booting into recovery" text then it reverts back to the clean HTC logo and proceeds to reboot into the OS.
I've tried the whole process again and again, and still nothing. It doesn't say "TAMPERED" above UNLOCK (in the bootloader) either.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance

EDIT:
I managed to get it working. I let the phone sit (powered 100% OFF) while I brewed a pot of coffee (1-2 minutes), when I tried it one last time; it listed "TAMPERED" then "UNLOCKED" and allowed me to flash into recovery with no issues. I think the key is to let the phone sit for a bit while it is powered off. [MODs - Feel free to remove this thread if needed]
2 days ago my phone went from running perfectly to turning off and getting stuck in a boot loop, I'm assuming it had something to do with supersu updating because i noticed a popup about the binaries needing updating before the crash. I couldn't load recovery (would show team win logo then reboot) but i could load safe mode, i tried downgrading to lower versions of su ( i tried 2.13, 1.8 and 2.01) but that didn't work my phone would boot normally, i could access it for about a minute then it would reboot and do it all over again. i had originally followed this guide (URL at the bottom as i can't post links) so last night i attempted to just re do it all following the same guide. I got the recovery mode to boot and wiped the cache but i still had the same issue where i could access my phone for a minute before crashing. Now when i try to enter recovery it shows the htc logo and immediately reopens boot loader on the fast boot option. I rurally don't want to go out and buy a new phone so any help is appreciated. My current PC access is fairly limited but i can use one if i have to.
Also when i launched safe mode i noticed id get an error report after a few minutes, not sure if thats relevant but it never showed up when i booted normally.

It works for me.
Hi There.
I Have an HTC One M8 International Version has not been rooted just plain custom stock installed, it was working Fine, all of a sudden it went off and wasn´t able to be turned on, at this point it would just vibrates repeatedly and was flashing led indicator on green or orange (times blinking/at times solid).
I read on some other forums it might be a battery problem, so i swichted the battery with no results, kept doing the same thing. as getting deep into this some other peeps suggested it might be the screen so i changed the display.
Now, with the new battery and a new display i manage to get the screen to work but i just keeps rebboting (on htc logo) after 10 secs even if i power it off it will turn on and keeps rebooting, im able to get to hboot menu but no furthermore, wont go to recovery at all, and will restart boot loop when chose any option (fast boot, reboot or recovery).
Help please since it is not root, quite sure it hasnt been erased the rom.
:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Any help or suggestion to get it to work again, just as a factory device.
Hi guys, i need help.
was using my phone this morning and suddenly it restarted itself.
the phone passed through boot icon and went to "almost" into launcher screen.
my phone is rooted and thought that it might be due to software, hence i flashed stock firmware into it.
so now it is in stock rom and stock recovery.
but the phone still restarts.
it will still pass through the boot icon and since it is fresh installed, it goes to the setup screen, but from the the phone restarts again.
it seems like it restarts everytime it finish boot.
thinking that it might be screen issue, so i go into (stock)recovery mode, i try to navigate around in it by going to wipe phone, install from storage, and the phone doesnt restart.
please advise what might be the cause or issue since i had already flashed stock rom, so i guess rom isnt a problem, and phone doesnt restart when it is in recovery mode...
