Sorry I didn't get up here last night.
jlevy73 you are right, after flashing the recoveries, you can't access the recovery traditionally, however, you can adb push apps and root your butterfly.
a guy call czh from Taiwan has managed to root the x920D with DNA recovery and he put up 2 small packages that similar to 1-click root tools. It's a bunch of batch files, you guys can check it out and make use of it for rooting your phone:
Package 1: superSU Version:
http://sdrv.ms/RK6XEM SuperUser version:
http://sdrv.ms/10mKD6z
First, make sure you've unlocked your bootloader throught HTCdev.com, enable usb debugging.
run
1.cmd, you will see your phone slowly getting bricked. Don't worry, it's because it's flashing DNA recovery. It can be fixed by flashing a suitable recovery for Butterfly when it comes out (ever?). Wait until the computer says complete.
Long press the power button until the phone screen lights up again.
You've completed Root & SuperCID.
This is only a temp root, so if you reboot your phone, the system will restore itself, and you might lose root. just run 1.cmd again.
Package 2: Link:
http://sdrv.ms/Yoo5Nl
cwm.cmd enter cwm mode,to run anything below, you have to enter CWM mode first.
Backup.cmd Make sure you do it at least once to have full system backup, incase **** happens. Please wait til you see complete.
Backup_tar_data.cmd Backup data partition using tar format
Backup_tar_system.cmd backup system partition using tar format
Recovery_tar_data.cmd Restore backups from Backup_tar_data.cmd,enter your file name after the cmd eg.Recovery_tar_data.cmd x920d_data_14563661.tar
Recovery_tar_system.cmd Restoer backups from Backup_tar_system.cmd,enter your file name after the cmd eg.Recovery_tar_system.cmd x920d_system_o.tar
Recovery.cmd Factory restore
rm.cmd Remove builtin apps <= I don't know what it removes, please open up batch file to check
screen-capture_nosound.cmd remove screen capture sound.
320dpi.cmd change screen resolution to 320dpi, HTC sense and certain built-in HTC apps will FC. freezing HTC Sense by Titanium Backup will fix the problem.
wipe_data.cmd Wipe up data including built-in SD card.
~go.cmd <= make sure you run BACKUP.cmd before you do this. it installs things in file directory and some mods czh did.
