So you are at the white screen that says hboot? It should be the second option on that screen saying recovery, use the volume keys to move to it, then use the power button to select it.

you can boot into your rom and then reflash recovery, I flash mine a few times as rarely its there the first time
Grab the PC36IMG.zip file from the Amon Ra thread and put it on your SD card. Boot to the bootloader, let it find the file, and update to flash the amon ra recovery. I hate clockworkmod. It's never been as consistent for me as Amon Ra.
you wiped your boot or system partition didn't you?
hold volume down while turning your phone on and it should bring a menu with three android guys at the bottom, once there use the volume buttons to select recovery and then push power to select it. That will get you into the recovery where you can flash a ROM. If it doesn't let you get into the recovery from there and you still have the autoroot folder on your computer you can run the file 'FlashZip' script and tell it to flash the SprintLovers_AmonRA... file. Just put it in fastboot mode before hand by selecting fastboot instead of recovery from the hboot

It sounds like you have the old debug firmware installed, the screen with the red triangle is the stock recovery. Pushing vol up + power in it should bring up a menu although there is nothing in there that is of use except reboot.
With the triangle showing on your phone run the FlashZip script and it should reboot you in to the bootloader, once it does that hit enter when it warns you about your bootloader being unlocked and it will give a list of different PC36IMG files. You'll want to flash the one that says SprintLovers-AmonRA to make sure everything is up to date.

When I experienced the red triangle and inability to boot into recovery, following step #10 of the link below pushed a temporary recovery onto the phone.

You still need to flash (by some means), a permanent recovery.
You can do so using either the PC36IMG.zip method, adb shell, or through console.
holy f !!!!! you developin son of *****!!!!! you are the man!!!!! you literally just saved my life i just got this phone yesterday and my girlfreind is on her way to kill me... so now what do i do about recovery and am i still rooted... and how do i give you money???
Hey guys,
I'm trying to boot into recovery mode on my Legend, but I've had no success as of now. I've tried using Rom Manager to boot to recovery and I've tried backing up my current Rom as well, but all I get is a phone with a red exclamation mark beside it. I've tried booting into fastboot, (Holding down the volume down button and power button) and hit the "Recovery" button, but still no luck. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
PS: Sorry for posting two threads in two days.
EDIT: Solved. For those having a similar problem, all I had to do was run the recovery once from my PC using the file "Recovery-windows" in the Legend tools. It had to push the recovery files into my Legend again because I factory reset it a couple weeks ago. I've been trying to fix it for hours, love getting to the bottom of things.
This also works:
When you get to the red triangle of doom press volume up and power. Then using the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select choose "install update.zip" (something like that, I honestly can't remember what of actually says) then observe as your phone ends up in recovery.

Hi,
I am new to HTC legend. I have a similar problem, can you please tell me what uyou refer to by "run the recovery once from my PC using the file "Recovery-windows" in the Legend tools." What program is that and how do I get it?
Thanks in advance.
Collectric: have you tried holding the volume up button and then pressing the power button?
For me it takes a few moments of pressing power but then a green box appears and i can move on.
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
Of course I pressed power and volume down, that's basic.
Unfortunately, I made a stupid mistake and tried to replace the recovery file using
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
which was prepare for Samsung phone (having the naive thought that Android is the same Android for every one ).
Since then I lost the possibility to go into recovery mode, and the author of the above mentioned program is not answering me, so now I am tryoing to look for a way to "recover" recovery mode ....
Thanks anyhow...
Well when I rooted my phone with theunlockr.com they gave us a legend tools folder and it has the recovery tools to push the recovery files into the phone which worked for me and I can then go into recovery freely I'll give you the link soon.

EDIT: Okay here it is http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend/ make sure you download ONLY the "Legend Rooting Tools" and ONLY that you don't need anything else. Unzip the Legend Root Folder in the root of C:/ Also please do not follow the steps they mentioned as your phone is already rooted.
Here are the steps you should do:
1. Unzip the Legend Root Folder to "C:/"
2. Go to the folder in the "C:/" it should be called "R4-legend-root"
3. Put your phone in recovery mode using the power + volume down and click recovery in the PHONE not the PC.
4. When you're on the red triangle of doom (Make sure you are!) click "Recovery-windows" in the PC (Again located in the r4-legend-root folder which you unzipped)
5. A black box should come up pushing the files to your phone
6. Your phone should be in recovery mode
7. You can now go into recovery mode freely using ROM Manager instead of the computer like I do.
PS: Sorry for the late reply I was off on vacation.
Many thanks man, no need to apologize...
Well, the whole point is that strangely enough I CAN'T go into recovery mode on my phone...
Since that stupid act of trying to work with the Samsung program, when I press power and volume down I get into "Factory mode" which gives me the options to test my device, clear the flash and Reboot.
I don't even have the option to go into recovery mode...
I can try and copy all those files manually, as my phone is rooted. I will copy the files from PC into my SD then move them with my phone "total commander" into the proper folders in the root flash.
Does it sound like a plan?
Thanks again
Hi,
As you probably guessed, root is read only, so I met a dead end. I have no way to go into recovery mode thus can't replace any file in root.
I tried to reboot to recovery using "adb reboot recovery", the phone reboots and get stuck with green HTC on the screen - I had to remove battery, put back, press power with volume down to enter "Factory mode", select reboot and get again normal operation.
Any innovative idea?
Thanks in advance...
Maybe you can try to reroot your phone using the unlockr.com method. But I'm not a specialist at these kinds of issues, I wish to be more help. But is there any you can try to reroot your phone using theunlockr.com method?
Yes, I am working on it but I am not so optimistic as, on the way, they also instruct to go into recovery mode. Anyhow, till I discover something better I'll give it a shot.
Many thanks on your assistance.
As I suspected, its a vicious circle, all the repair methods eventually end in the recovery mode. To recover recovery mode I have to go into recovery mode - sad but seems to be true. I will try to open a new thread maybe there is some Android sage with some trick in the sleeve for me....
Thanks again
I'm sorry I couldn't be of help. If you do manage to get it fixed please tell me how you did it because it would be very useful to know recovery mode is essential for every phone. Thank you and sorry again.

I had a problem with the red exclamation mark when trying to load the recovery image on my phone after rooting with the method on theunlockr.com.
To solve it download a recovery image from here, rename it "update.zip" and placed it in the root of your sdcard.
Then boot up your phone and attempt to load recovery as before by pressing the power button and volume DOWN. When you get to the red exclamation mark screen, press and hold volume UP and the power button. This should bring up the Android system recovery. Select flash update.zip and this will flash and load the recovery image.

Hey, I've been doing this for few months now every time I need to enter recovery after I recovered from a bootloop for installing CM7.
However, is there a way to permanently remove this 'wrong' feature by having to manually click update.zip every time? Can I just restore my Legend back to the original state where it would automatically enter recovery without having to press "Vol Up + Power Button" combo and applying update.zip?
Thanks!

If you look at the top line of the bootloader screen it will have the phrase
'S-ON' somewhere; this means 'security on'. The result is that the /system and /recovery partitions are read-only.
There are instructions here on how to S-OFF the Legend. (xda discussion thread here)
I haven't done it myself. Personally, I felt that the risks of bricking and the time spent researching and doing it outweighed the benefits of a writeable /system and /recovery partition.

So are you saying that this "extra step" resulted from the fact that my phone is still S-ON? If that is so, I guess the benefits of this read-only system allows me to flash ROMs much easier (without having to connect to ADB).
Thanks!
I'm not sure if this is gonna help, but you can try pressing the "BACK" button while pressing power on?
So I've become tired of pressing "Check now" and being lied to about my system being up to date on the system update screen, and decided to sideload 4.2.2 myself.
This requires booting into recovery mode, but doing so just shows an image on Android on its back with a red triangle over its chest, and "No command" underneath it.
adb reboot recovery yields the same result, as does booting into the bootloader and choosing recovery from there.
After leaving it on this screen for a while, the system automatically does a normal boot.
This Nexus 10 has never been rooted or unlocked: the only thing I've ever done to it is to update to 4.2.1, for which I did wait for the OTA update to become available for my device.
So I'm currently stuck. Anyone have any idea what's going on?
The red triangle is stock recovery. Try hitting one of the volume buttons to get you into the next part of stock recovery. Once there you can select to sideload. I haven't played with stock recovery on the N10 recently so don't remember which volume button and if your press it or hold it.
EDIT: It looks like tapping the power button and volume up button at the same time works. Don't hold the buttons, just tap ... tap it in ...
EDIT2: Just realized you may be having some other issue after I saw someone else mention the "no command" piece.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37926664&postcount=97
AHA!
Thank you! Knowing that there's a second step to get to the menu helped me to find this:
Press and Hold the Power button and then tap the Volume Up button within a second to display the menu. This can be a bit tricky if you don’t do it right so if your device reboots just try again.

I am in the exact same situation.
Launched the update after 4.2.2 Notification, the device restarted, error message then "No command". I restart manually with Power and Vol+.
My Nexus is fully fonctionnal but always in 4.2.1.
For info : My bootloader is unlocked and the devices is rooted.
I had the same problem. In my case, the thing was I had no recovery installed (the Nexus 10 tries to restore stock recovery if you install another one, and sometimes it fails).
I solved it by installing GooManager from the Play Store and using it to install another recovery.

Could you please elaborate further? I have the same problem (rooted and getting the No Command error) and i am absolutely not sure what to use the goomanager for and what difference it would make
I got the same problem, I have to flash the 4.0 factory image back, then got ota 4.2.1 and 4.2.2, that was before I realized that 4.2.2 factory image has been released by google. Now just wait for some tools to root the stock.

First of all, do you want android or Windows?
for android, when you see "ENTERING FASTBOOT MODE" then you can reinstall the Recovery and go!
Thanks for replying.
I just want my phone work again, so either Windows or Android...
But with android, i already intalled LK Boot (the message appears in blue now) then i installed the recovery from SC Dard but when the phone boots, it's only showing the black screen with message (in blue). With windows I stuck with the ''Invalid vendor ID'' while installing with RUU (I can't determinate my Vendor ID). So please help

You had Android before as you said, so you can come back to android easily. just be really sure you have reinstalled the Recovery correctly! (Even this happened to me, but at last you will Pass!)
have you tried to manually enter recovery by VolumeUp?
Please tell us the ROM you want to use.
I can't enter recovery manually, only with PC (with CWM LK Boot Recovery's update.bat file). when i power on the phone holding volume up, the phone displays this message (in blue = meaning that the LK Boot is installed):

Good,
When you can't enter Recovery manually (Volume Up), means either it hasn't been installed correctly or you button is damaged. Yes LK Boot is installed (the blue texts) but the Recovery (graphic interface) seems hasn't been installed.
if you can enter Recovery by PC, why not format and install ROM there (don't restart)? you may pass anyway!
and the last thing, did you hold both Power and Volume up? you should just power then release it, but hold Volume UP, what we see in the text you showed us, the phone hasn't detect the pressed Volume Up.
Have a nice try!

I've also formatted before i install the ROM but no succes...
I don't think there is a problem with the volume up button 'cause i use it in the recovery and when i press both volume buttons and power button it leads me to the WP reset option (factory resset) and i use the volume up button to confim the action (restoring).
And, is there a way in can check my Vendor ID? 'cause i would like to install WP but fastboot doesn't give me the CID, the command ''fastboot getvar CID'' returns ''CID: '' then nothing. I'm so desesperate...
BR.
Going Back to WM you should have the right ROM, or contact HTC for the right one, read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21617447&postcount=2
And at last, what OS you want to be installed on your phone?
either Android or WP
but android would be better

Alright then,
You said you can't enter Recovery by VolumeUp, right?
if right, connect USB to PC, Click on Update.bat, press number one, then number two, and restart phone (don't unplug phone), when entered fastboot, press number two again, you may now enter manually recovery. if you couldn't pass, press number two and on your phone you would see recovery interface, format and install the ROM, unplug USB and restart phone.....
Okay, will try. thanks again

yeah I mean those 4 arrow buttons which you should touch them. if you touch the arrow, the selection above will move. And there is no need to move by using Volume keys in Recovery.
using PC, it should be possible through terminal ADB, which are some codes for connection. but I don't support this way.
I recommended that you do it by using touch, if the four arrow touch doesn't work, then how can you use it with Android? especially the Phone app is in the four arrow button direction.

You should follow a guide, search for (Install ROM through adb, install ROM without SDCARD, install ROM via adb)
Anyway, I found this guide may help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911228
Remember to enter recovery as you did it (Volume + up), So follow the link above at your risk, you may skip the Wipe/format step.

Last week, my yotaphone 2 informed that there is a system update from yotaphone. I downloaded and updated but then my phone cannot work. It show only black start screen with word "Android" until battery empty.
I tried to android recovery mode (hold power and volume up),
it show that the error is "e:cannot load volume /misc!".
And I do not know how to solve that problem.
Please help me!

You can probably recover.
To reflash a full firmware image you could try the relatively user-friendly yotaflasher application and ROM images from here. I haven't used this myself, but it's software by Yota, so should be safe. You can ask it not to touch /data, to preserve apps, settings etc.
A less user friendly way to reflash a full firmware image:
- Download a full firmware image (EU 1.60 flashable version here, let me know if you require a different one)
- With the phone off, press vol down + power until you see "Downloading ...."
- If you can't turn the phone off normally, keep vol down + power for at least 15 seconds till phone reboots, keep holding till you end up with "Downloading ...."
- connect to a PC with adb+fastboot with a USB cable
- You can now boot TWRP image (fastboot boot recovery_twrp_yd201_alpha2.img , see here.
- if you have important files on your phone, you can back them up now by using adb shell/adb pull (e.g. adb pull /sdcard/Pictures/yeti_sighting.jpg)
- In TWRP go to advanced -> sideload and confirm
- now you can sideload a ROM image from the PC with adb sideload <image>.zip, it should show progress while it's uploading the firmware. If it errors, you probably haven't confirmed initiating sideload in previous step.
- wipe cache&dalvik and reboot
thank you, the first way worked and my phone runs normally now.
thank you
Help please

Root the phone using methods written on this forum > download build 1.60 flammable zip > flash that.
If all you want is Google apps then root the phone then download and flash a gapps package. The full Yota build zip is recommended though.
Can't download yotaflasher application from the link... does anybody have the exe file?

Just click on the YotaPhoneFlasher folder then click the file (yotaphone2_flasher.exe), and save to your harddisk.
Or you can try this link straight to the yotaphone2_flasher.exe file.

Dude I've just bought my phone, and it has the same problem. But I'm a complete noob, how did you fix it? Please, i've just bought it.
On RU build 134 when I tried to swap users my user with Defaut user, the phone blocked, the display is on (time is the same when first happend - just a freeze image) but I can't do nothing on phone. Is a way to reset? because on a normal way I would remove battery but yota dont have this option.

The analogue method of pulling out the battery is pressing the POWER button for at least 10 seconds. The phone will reboot.
Thanks, I pushed vol down + Power and the phone restarted normaly.
PS: If you know where to get a book from Алекса́ндр Солжени́цын - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn to read on yota display, send me.

Sir, i can't even get into recovery mode, i get this problem like it suddenly happen and my battery was 38%.. i was on facebook and it hang and then reboot and then stuck at "POWERED BY ANDROID".
I try to get into recovery mode by pressing volume up + power button, it restart again to "POWERED BY ANDROID"
When i pressing volume down + power button, it show downloding... , and i try to flash it using yotaflasher with HK Firmware 5.0.
When it is done, the phone reboot.
And it still stuck at "POWERED BY ANDROID"
What is the real problem ?
Please help!!!
While trying to solve the network issue on my Yotaphone 2 I managed to brick my phone. He is dead! But since it is a Snapdragon inside it can be fixed.
I need a help from someone who has rooted his Yotaphone2!
I need files from Yotaphone2 software: rawprogram0.xml and patch0.xml
Please!!!

You need to keep pressing the power up button after the showing of "POWERED BY ANDROID", the power does not need to be pressed after then.
If you can still not reach recovery, you probably have a broken recovery (maybe wrong version) and something else is messed up.
When you flash recovery, you need to instantly go into recovery mode by pressing +/up on calling the according command
(fastboot reboot).
It does not look like you changed file system related things, did you change anything on your system/with root permissions?
Are you sure the installation process went without failure etc?
Getting out the cause (kernel logs etc) would be a bit hard without getting into recovery mode[and maybe also nonworking kernel], like stated out here
