I just rooted my HTC One (and verified root access), I'm now trying to get CWM on there for my recovery. When I type into the terminal "fastboot devices" it shows my phone connected. but when I try the command to flash the recovery it says "< waiting for device >". I've ensured that USB Debugging is enabled and have tried multiple USB ports and have even restarted my machine.

I'm out ideas on what to try next. Anyone else have a thought?

I prefer TWRP over CWM. Also make sure to type the right command "fastboot flash recovery *name of recovery*.img" and to have the proper drivers installed.
