Hey guys, first of all im sorry if its in the wrong section(im a noob).
So, ive recently rooted my phone via the htcdev, everything went well ive flashed cwm and im using cm as my rom but my problem is that i cannot flash a new recovery. I just want to have cwm touch because i want to try out cwm touch recovery. I have tried flashing new recovery and it says its complete and everything went well(via cmd). I've also tried flashing new recovery through rom manager, when im installing cwm touch it says its been complete but doesnt actually do anything, and when im trying to flash cwrp it says installation failed.
What could be the problem?

First are your bootloader Unlocked not Relocked
Second use command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Third try Philz recovery it is really good.
Four When you flash the recovery after this run the command fastboot erase cache after this restart in recovery and you will see your new recovery

after install from the PC run fastboot erase cache and restart the phone to bootloader and go in recovery and be sure your recovery in fastboot folder is not the same you install previous

try flashing philz recovery 5.15.up. this is the best recovery for hox. you can flash roms easily with this. before flashing make sure that your device should meet all the needs.
