Even though the software is still working for many, I do not provide any more support for it.
I've been caught up with college, and it's been really hard to manage everything.
So from here, I would like to announce that I am discontinuing this product but will still keep it online.
Thanks guys for your support, and sorry about that!
Hey guys!
I'm proud to introduce you my application "Android Recovery Manager".

What is this application for?
As its name says, it is a Recovery Manager. It can flash any recovery you want by a single click.

What you get?
- You don't need to understand a single ADB or fastboot command. The application manages everything on its own.
- Up-to-date list of Stock Recoveries for almost all RUUs. ** Request your recovery if it's not available, and it'll be added as soon as possible **
- The application is only one file, the required files such as ADB and fastboot are compressed inside the application, and extracted to a folder in ProgramData on run-time.
- You can import recoveries from your computer or the application can download a recovery for you.
- Multiple devices supported, if you have more than a phone connected, the application will recognize them and will let you choose between them.
- Integrated MD5 comparison system, if the downloaded recovery doesn't have the right MD5, the application downloads it again until it gets the right MD5.
- If you want to install a FOTA, you'll need to flash a recovery matching the one with your Stock ROM to successfully install the update. You can find and flash this recovery in no time using the application. (A full step-by-step guide can be found here.)
- A full XML log is created with all the commands executed and the output of the applications in a very neat way, making it easy to understand any error that occurred. If you don't don't understand the log, you can send it to me, and I'll help you as much as I can to fix the problem for you!

Known Bugs
* Windows XP users are having problems with the GUI colors. For a temporary fix, download Android Recovery Manager v1.2.1.0 - XP Fix

I am not responsible of your device, do whatever you want to it at your own risk. Anything that may happen to your device is under your responsibility.

N.B: If it ever happens to you that the application or even fastboot.exe crashes while doing anything, do not, and I repeat, DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR PHONE.
If the bootloader seems unresponsive, never get your battery off. Just wait until it gets responding again.

Compatibility:
The application has been tested under Windows 7 (32 and 64 bit) and it has been confirmed to work on both.

Requirements:
- .NET Framework 3.5
- HTC Fastboot Drivers

Screenshots:

* Fixed closing issues.
* Updated the application's interface.
* Everything now created by the application is created in ProgramData (Windows Vista and 7 users).

* Improved the way the application manages the folders.
* You can now access the 'Logs' and 'Data' folders by clicking "Browse -> Logs" or "Browse -> Downloaded Recoveries".

* More powerful ADB and Fasboot commanders.
* Added logging, the application now saves every output by the commands executed, to an XML file.
* Flashing should now be faster and safer then before.
* When flashing a recovery, the application doesn't terminate any fastboot process, if any fastboot process is found opened, the application waits until the user closes it and then starts flashing.

Look nice !
is it compatible with Xp ? How to install ?
Wasn't tested on XP yet, but as long as you have the HTC Drivers and .NET Framework 4 installed, everything's supposed to work fine.

Install it normally, download the file "Android Recovery Manager - Installer" and you'll find the setup in it, follow the steps on screen and you'll have a shortcut on your desktop when the installations is completed!

Nice idea and nice sw but not many people need it tbh. Most people just use custom rom, and chefs do all the updates.

Now, food for thought...

IF, it would be possible to install full RUU with that from your database, this sw would be invaluable. ;) I'm sure it's not that difficult to implement.

Thank you :D
Well, the RUU is already an application, you run and it does the work, why should I do so?
Tell me if I got ur question wrong :D

Well, RUU are scattered all over for different devices. It would be nice to have single database for all htc models. Also, possibility to choose what to flash, radio, rom, recovery would be superb.

To just flash recovery there are a few applications already available, like flasher, which also do other functions, so it's kind of pointless keeping your sw just for that.

I have a feeling that you have a "know how" how to make it work.

It's not difficult to do something like that :D
I know how to do it, but the thing is that an RUU returns your device to a state that is almost as the one when you bought it..

If I implement something like that, it'll only be able to flash radio, recovery, system and its boot image... (RUU flashes bootstrap and hboot too and maybe others I'm not aware of..)
It can be done, wont take more than 2 hours from me to get it all set..

But again, the hard part is the images themselves.. I need to make sure that all the images have the right MD5, that none of them are corrupted and that every single byte in there is right.. You know how dangerous could it be to flash a corrupted radio? ;)
Anyway.. The application is way more flexible than any other, it does all the work, you even have a list of all the recoveries you can think off... I believe I didn't see any other applications doing the same thing.. thats why I created it in the first place :)

I like the idea though ;)
I believe I'm gonna customize the application to make it work as u said ;)

Thank you :d
