I'm currently stuck with Guru Reset M7 2.24.401.8 and I can't flash CWM with it so I tried using terminal but this is what happens:

PHP:

android exloux$ fastboot flash RECOVERY CWM_Touch_Recovery_6.0.2.8_M7.img
target reported max download size of 1526722560 bytes
sending 'RECOVERY' (7242 KB)...
OKAY [  1.120s]
writing 'RECOVERY'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 1.693s

Here is some information of my phone:

Code:

***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
S-ON
HBOOT-1.55.0000
RADIO-4A.21.3263.04

Any help will be very appreciated!!!
I use a Macbook pro btw

it that your typing or why is recovery in caps ?
on a Mac it should be
./fastboot-mac flash recovery cwm_recovery.img
and be sure the recovery.img is in the same folder as fastboot-mac

ok, the most common error in flashing recovery is misspelled commands and files not in the correct folders

1- you should be using TWRP 2.6.3.3 or .4 (other versions and recoveries don't work with 4.4 ROMs)
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7ul
^^ make sure to check MD5 on the download!!!!!

2- why are you flashing recovery in RUU mode?

3- it should be "fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img" <- in blue, it's supposed to be lowercase, not uppercase
