hey guys i finally finished unlocking the bootloader on my 2.2.1 FRG83D build N1 but i couldnt get recovery.img to push to the N1 through adb.second option was to run "install-superboot-windows" for FRG83D build on bootloader screen from PC,soon as i did that N1 booted to the phone and i checked in the app menus and i have the latest "SUPERUSER" app.i really want to flash custom ROMS now.DO I HAVE RECOVERY or how do i get recovery now cuz i really wanna get started with flashing custom roms.any suggestions would help.thanx
1. Get a teminal emulator from the market and reboot recovery. or
2. Get quick Boot from the market and install/use that to boot into recovery or
3. Power down the phone and push the trackball+power to boot into recovery
If none of those 3 options work for you, your recovery did not flash and you will need to either reflash it. (making sure fastboot sees your phone with fastboot devices)
Or you could download ROM manager from the market. Using that, you can install clockwork recovery from the app itself.

I am running ClockworkMod Recovery, and when I updated to version 2.0.1.0 through Koush's ClockworkMod Rom Manager, my phone won't boot into recovery.
When I plug it in to my computer to run adb logcat, it says "FASTBOOT USB" in red at the top of the screen. When I type fastboot reboot, it says "rebooting..." but doesn't reboot. Any ideas?
IDK. Haven't tried that recovery. Have you tried to download from your computer and flash it on the phone. You might also want to try flashing Amon RA or Godspeed.
I went into ROM Manager and flashed an old version of ClockworkMod. That fixed it.
Have you tried Amon-RA? If so what's the difference?

ClockworkMod has a nice app that you use in Android to name your backups, flash things in folders other than root of sd, ecetera.
So I put ClockworkMod Recovery 2.0.1.3 on my G1 yesterday with the app ROM Manager v2.0.0.5
I flashed a ROM using the app... No errors, no bootloop, worked fine..
I now press [HOME] + [POWER] and I get stuck at the G1 screen
I type reboot recovery via terminal and I get stuck at the G! screen
I flash_image recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.4.img and I get a plethora of errors and last line states I am out of memory ????
I erase_image recovery and I get no errors but nothing happens
I go to recovery flasher and get errors if I try to back up or flash my recovery
I go to ROM Manager to flash a recovery and it wont flash CwM recovery
I dont have adb at the moment bc my comp is tanked... any suggestions?
I had Clockwork and I Flashed KenMood 1.9.3 and last night when I tried to boot into Recovery it would just get stuck on the Splash. When I booted up normally, it would just reboot. Now when I try (after charging overnight) it works fine, but still no recovery image. I tried to flash it using ROM Manager Premium and it shows that the flash was successful but it still won't work. Any ideas on what I can do…? I don't have fastBoot setup correctly btw.
I tweeted koush and this was his reply

@JunkDruggler Use erase_image to erase your recovery and flash another one. Or fastboot flash another one on there. about 1 hour ago via Tweetie for Mac in reply to JunkDruggler
So I opened terminal and kept trying over and over
erase_image recovery
flash_image recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.4.img
I noticed less errors and eventually it worked..
I am now back to my obselete recovery with the console nobody uses anymore..
Hi XDA, as title says, i cant get boot into recovery...
I have an HTC Dream (Spanish version of G1), and Im having problems with the recovery boot.
I have root done on the phone and i've tried to install a new recovery via Clockwork app, adb shell, also via Fastboot and via "RECOVERY FLASHER"...
All of them look to finish succesfully, but I still cant boot onto recovery.
Every time I try to boot on recovery, the phone gets hang on the company logo... until I get out the battery to turn it off.
I dont know what can I try more...
Any idea ?
Thanks
If you cannot boot into recovery by holding down Home and Power, then you're bricked, I believe. What were you trying to do?

I can boot normally, and I run apps that need root correctly, but I want to boot into recovery to flash a custom ROM...
Clockwork mod needs to reboot into recovery to reflash a Custom ROM, so I cant get another rom that way neither.
Any idea (again)?
Do you have terminal on your phone? Download amon RA recovery 1.7.0 for HTC Dream and use that instead Clockwork because it is most recommended. Rename it to recovery.img and move it to the root of your SD card.
Go to terminal on your phone and type:
cd sdcard
flash_image recovery recovery.img
Now try to boot into recovery mode.

If you have root access, then you can try to (re-)install your recovery image using adb.
Open a shell using the command
adb shell
and then from there you can try to flash the recovery image by entering
flash_image recovery recovery.img
where recovery.img is the name of the recovery image you want to install and it should be located in the current directory.
Edit: two people same ideas ... ;-)
Both things re-done...

Anything else ?
Thanks for the answers anyway
Bump...
Any help ?
Fastboot is working for me, but I have the default SPL and I cant use "fastboot flash new_recovery.img" ---> Not allowed.
Theres a way to flash another SPL using phone terminal, or using fastboot ?
Thanks
I'm not sure, but if I was in the same boots as you, I would download the DREAIMG.nhb and flash that in fastboot. Once done, you'll be on Stock RC29. Yep, you're going to have to root again and re-install a custom recovery.
This is also safe to do since you're on HBOOT-0.95.000.

HEy Guys, i just wanted to Install the flashable zip of the newest TWRP over the current CWM. It said okay, but i still get the CWM Recovery. The App Rom Manager says that my current recovery is TWRP, but it isnt, i only get to CWM.
Im not into that stuff like adbfiles or fastboot mode, this is to hard for me to try.
Isnt there another option to get TWRP running?
thanks
Should not be flashing the phone if adb/ fastboot is too hard

Dude go 2 fastboot. Then flash the twrp file the same way u did when u first installed cwm after unlocking the bootloader(using command prompt). There might b a flashable zip directly, but I wud advise u use the fast boot method.
Dont flash. Use fastboot.
Put the recovery file in your SDK root on your computer and hook up your phone
Go to fastboot in bootloader
Then
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.zip
Another option is Flashify app on play store. Flash recovery with that without the adb hassle.
problem in recovery verion
hi guys..... my problem is ia install kikat 4.4 on old recovery version.and make factory reset.and now i cann't connect mobile on pc.how can i install another recovery version now...thanks to all
Not really sure what I'm doing wrong. Last rooted phone was a Nexus 5, and that was of course painless to root and flash ROMs to...
I'm using a Verizon XT1096 with 5.1 on T-Mobile.
So I was able to get the bootloader unlocked via Motorola's website, now that Verizon is allowing them to do so. No problems there. My problem now is that I can flash a recovery, but if it reboots, the recovery is gone. And I can't get any recoveries to flash anything. I can't push an apk, root zip, or even a ROM. Says Installation Aborted, with no other error codes. Even tried CWM and disabling Signature Checking, which gives me more info, saying that the footer is mismatched. Phone does say the bootloader is unlocked though so that shouldn't be it...
Honestly, I'd just like to get it on CM12 until I can get a Nexus 6P.. Can anyone tell me if I'm doing something wrong? Or is there just no way to root yet? I figured even the XT1095 CF-Auto-Root method would work for 5.1, but no dice..
Not sure what to do here. Please move my thread if need be. Don't post here much...
I followed the instructions on the TWRP website (link below) and it worked flawlessly. One thing you have to do is, after running the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command, make sure to manually scroll on the phone and reboot into recovery. Hope that helps...

There is a partition mismatch. So do this. Download supersu and place it in the phones memory. Boot to fastboot mode and then fastboot boot recovery.img rather than fastboot flash recovery.img. You will boot to twrp, install SuperSU then download twrp from the playstore and install thru the app. It works, that's how I did it. Also when booting to recovery from the fastboot menu choose recovery with the vol up key rather than power button.

I thought I tried that but maybe not. I've read that some stock ROMs can and will overwrite the recovery upon booting, but I could be wrong. I'll look at that when I get home tonight.

Thank you, I'll try this tonight when I get home. This may solve it. I think I remember the bootloader spitting something out about a partition mismatch.. Will report back as soon as I try it.
So I went ahead and tried both your guys' methods.
Oraixearl, I figured your solution would work, but it actually didn't, to my surprise. It returned no results, as the root zip didn't end up doing anything.
RepeatUntilTheEnd's solution worked here. I guess I didn't try rebooting the phone after flashing the recovery, before going into it..
So here's what I did.
1.) Boot into bootloader
2.) Fastboot flash recovery [recovery.img]
3.) adb reboot bootloader
4.) Used keys on phone to go into recovery,
5.) Flashed root.zip
6.) Booted into OS, and ran root checker. Worked.
7.) To my surprise, TWRP stuck around, too.
Thank you guys!
