recovery issue - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

have been using ra recovery forever and in a dumb moment loaded clockwork recovery. When I wanted to revert to an older rom I was surprised to see that all the backups and roms are gone and not showing on clockwork. Is there a way to get rid of clockwork and will ra recovery be there with all data or is there a spot where all the backups and roms are in the clockwork program
thanks

Just reflash the recovery you want with fastboot.

[Q] Recovery Issue, tried everything

I was trying to flash gingerbread on my phone, but it wasn't working with clockwork recovery so i flashed amon ra through rom manager then tried to flash gingerbread after clearing all data.
However this didn't work, and turns out the backups i created with clockwork can only be restored with clockwork recovery, i believe, because they are located in the clockwork folder. I had deleted my other nandroid backups because i was trying to clear space and i thought the backups i created in rom manager were the same.
So i flashed to the only working rom on my phone, cm6.1.1 without google apps. Amon ra also wont flash a variety of google apps ive put on my phone because of a signature error. This signature error seems to come up when i try to flash anything that might help fix this. I have tried many methods from this site to flash back to clockwork recovery, but it does not seem to be working.
what do i do?
thanks

[Q] Amon Ra or Clockwork?

The WIKI on Cyanogenmod's site for the G1 says that Clockwork Recovery has issues with the G1 due to limited memory. Is this still the case, or is it safe to use Clockwork instead of Amon Ra now?
they are both safe. Amon ra has a better menu but in my case the nandroid in amon ra wont restore my backups. clockwork works fine plus you can use rom manager.
My Preference is Amon RA, I had problem with Clockwork Recovery, nanodroid works well for me. I use Amon RA.
I use clockmodwork 3 (Alpha version by Roalex), because I test roms often and it does not check for the signature of a zip on default. Plus, Clockmodwork recovery 3 is the only recovery available for the HD2, so I use that also because I am most familiar with it.
Clock work works pretty good for me!

Trying to flash Cyanogenmod, got stuck in recovery

I have stock N1 on 2.3.6, just unlocked the bootloader and now I'm trying to load a custom recovery image so I can put Cyanogenmod on there, but it won't go into clockwork mod. I can't get root either. Is there anyway to flash it?

I went with Amon_Ra's Recovery instead of ClockworkMod Recovery and finally it worked.
Is it reverting to the custom recovery?
Edit: Ok glad you were able to solve it sorry i didnt read the other post!

Rooted stock firmware won't run custom recovery?

Hello,
I've been running stock rooted 4.1.2 for a while but my phone randomly reformatted itself last night so now I'm going to keep regular backups of my Rom.
I tried to boot into. CWM Recovery but I keep getting the stock recovery.. if I use Rom manager and flash CWM followed by an automated "reboot into recovery" then it boots into CWM but until I reflash CWM within Rom manager I can only get stock.
I want to try a few roms out so I'd like to "permanently" flash a custom recovery before making a backup!

try philz touch, it has a function to remove the auto-flash stock recovery. Otherwise there's a method in the general root thread if you want cwm.

[Q] Can't get rid of Philz Recovery

Evening guys,
so 2 days ago I flashed the Philz Recovery for testing. While I had the recovery on I flashed the latest Nightly of the Slim Kat Rom + Cyodak Kernel also for testing.
Ofc I backed up my files be4 doing so. Today I just recovered my backup, went to recovery again but the Philz recovery was still there. '''kk no prob i thought,
just flash the CWM Touch recovery again'' so I did, rebooted back into recovery mode and what happened? Instead of booting into the cwm recovery, there's
still the philz recovery. While in philz on the bottom left it shows "Philz Touch 6.48.4 and ClockworkMod v6.0.5.0" So no Idea what to do and it gets frustrating tho..
Thx in advance .
You didn't flash CWM again, or not properly, unless you wouldn't have PhilZ still.
well there's nothing much I could do wrong. Reboot into Recovery -> Install Zip from ext. SD -> choose the CWM Recovery -> Install -> Reboot into Recovery and CWM should be there right?
Also i've tried to restore the backup which I made be4 installing the Philz recovery. Backup was a success but once i'll boot into recovery it's the philz recovery again.
Backups do not contain recovery.
rly? Cuz my backup backups also the boot.img + the recovery. Anyway what am I going to do now? I've tried several ways, even flashing the TWRP as a zip, flashing via flashify or Rom Manager, no matter what I do I always end up in the philz recovery even when it says flash successfull.

You can use fastboot to flash recovery.
