Just the way you flashed cwm by clauddy,
download my twrp recovery.img.
Use the command fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img (<--- my file)
and then reboot in recovery.

how to enter flashboot again?
im sorry its been a while i didnt do this kind of stuff

If you have your phone turned on and USB debugging enabled, just issue the command
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
to boot directly to fastboot.

No problem. You have to open a terminal and go to the folder where adb.exe and fastboot.exe are. There you just type adb.exe reboot bootloader

The adb reboot bootloader will go directly to fastboot, at least for me...

That's right. Once you type adb reboot bootloader, wait a few seconds to restart, do not select nothing else and just type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and reboot when it's finished.

from where do i type the command such as adb reboot-bootloader and fastboot flash recovery c:\recoveryname.img???
do i type it from cmd or something? im confused.
i already in fastboot i guess by pressing volum down button when phone restarts

in the same folder that you have adb.exe, fastboot.exe, and your recovery.img, SHIFT + RIGHT CLICK on an empty space and choose 'Open command window here'
From here, making sure your device is in fastboot mode, type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

do i need my usb debugging to be on?

You need to be on fastboot mode (Reboot->Vol- & Power->Go on fastboot)
xpirt

ah.. nvm guys finally it worked. i already switched recovery from cwm to twrp.
thank you all
so here is what i should do since beginning
1. put your recovery.img file to where adb.exe and fastboot.exe located
2. connect phone to pc
3. hold power button and choose restart then wait till all buttons and screen goes off
4. hold down volume down button
5. select fastboot
6. shift+recovery on where adb.exe and fastboot.exe located to open cmd
7. then just type this command " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img " and press enter
8. done
LOLOL. im actually stuck at part 6 this whole time!!!!! THANKS!!!

cannot flash amonra

hey all,
well i unlocked my bootloader okay.. i used the android super toolbox (.bat file) and choose to flash a recovery.img i choose the Amonra option but it installed CWM recovery instead...and now I cannot get Amonra to succussfully flash, so that I can root. Any help?!
Reboot boot loader and use fast boot to flash amon ra. I think its called recovery.img and its in the tools folder of that tool. Put it in the folder you have adb and fasboot and then while in boot loader do fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Make sure you're in fast boot mode and you can see in the command prompt it sent it
So go to boot loader then click on fastboot

This is kind of wrong... I'm assuming you've CD (changed directories) to the platform-tools in order to use fastboot. With that being the case, you'll want to specify the "path of the recovery" not the "name of the recovery" + .img of course.

You are placing the recovery image in the same folder correct ? but yes that would be the correct path. I don't know why you would change name as long as you are typing it in correctly.
I always change the name to make it easier to type. Example: cwm-touch.img or recovery.img. I never leave it all crazy like "clockwork-vigor-5.5.1-recovery.img"

I just did it though ubuntu.... god i love linux lol thanks all for ur input
i did notice this on the hboot screen
Open DSP v10.6.0.7611.00.0919
maybe that was there before, but i just noticed it. anything in the name of S-Off!
What is the error you are getting?
The phone is in fastboot, yes? It says "fastboot usb"?
Are you using a folder named "Root" or do you just have your stuff all loose in root? I would keep it in a folder, name it whatever you like, android or something. Put everything you need in there, including the recovery zip file.
Open cmd prompt.
cd c:\android
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
That should do it. I've attached a pic of what I have in my folder which is all you need in there.

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.

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.

Using your mac? I don't use my mac for my phone stuff so I can't help you there.
There's a PH98IMG of Amon Ra somewhere, but now that I think about it I don't know if you can use that type of file yet at this point, before having a custom recovery on the phone. Btw... newest Amon Ra is v3.16, unless there's a 3.17 now.
I am assuming that you already have the adb setup.
Download the recovery and rename it to well recovery then put the "recovery" file on the adb folder
Next open up terminal type "cd" then space bar and drag and drop the folder that you put the recovery file into the terminal then hit enter
Turn off fastboot on your phone and turn on usb debugging and type this into the terminal ./adb devices
If your device shows up then type this ./adb reboot bootloader
then type this ./fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
wait for it to flash then type ./fastboot reboot bootloader
Then go to the recovery then once you are in the custom recovery go down to developer options
Select Install su and superuser and wait for that to finish.
And boom your rooted and running
I have a mac also and thats what I did
If you find a way to S off on a mac let me know :laugh:

you usually get that when you type it wrong just rename the file name to recovery.img
