What does this do for you? Will it take the phone back to stock?

Possibly, if we can use the "SBF Flash" menu instead of RSD Lite on the PC. I haven't seen that menu in an Android device before so I'm not entirely sure how it can be utilized.
In Recovery you can install an update.zip file to apply new software. You can also wipe data/factory reset to return to a semi-stock state if you are having lags and/or bootloops.

Which one is the "ENTER OK" Key ?

im trying to wipe my captivate at the moment, booted into the clockwork 3e recovery mode.

how do i get out of this ? Vol up down buttons work, but no enter button ... home etc... nothing happens.
It's one of the bottom four keys... menu or back
-edit-
Oh, I see the other keys don't work.
When I saw something similar, one of those keys worked for "enter". If no keys work for enter, these are the options I know of:
- Hold up+power to reset
- Hold up+down+power to reset in to recovery
- Hold down+power to reset in to download mode (where you can flash back to stock with odin)
- Pull battery
worked, thanks.

To get to the green recovery mode, make sure you have the install.zip file in the internal sd. Then in regular recovery, click reinstall packages. You may need to press it twice.
If you don't have the install.zip file, boot your phone, download ROM Manager from the market and select the option, Flash ClockWork Recovery.
Once this is installed, each time you go to recovery, it takes you to clockwork recovery mode automatically

update.zip
not
install.zip
and it needs to be the update.zip from CWM/ROM Manager, not any old update.zip

Recovery Mode

If you need to wipe everything from your phone and take it back to factory default there are two way to perform this.
First backup your data take out your SD card or data will be lost.
On phone go into settings then Privacy and select Factory data reset.
The second way is to boot phone into recovery mode.
Power off phone
press and hold both up and down volume button and then press the power button. the recovery menu will come up. Select recovery and sit back drink a beer, once your done ,your phone will back to default.

The stock recovery doesn't actually wipe EVERYTHING.
It leaves framework and possibly the ROM you're running

what are you using to reboot into recovery?
here's the failsafe way to access recovery:
power off the phone, press and hold volume down + power for a few seconds then release to access bootloader menu. press volume down to highlight recovery, then volume up to select it.

strange, are you unlocked and using twrp/cwm or locked and using slapmymoto? if you're unlocked, i'd recommend reflashing twrp/cwm recovery image, sounds like it may be corrupt. if you're locked, i can't help as i haven't messed with any of the locked device stuff.
im on a locked device, used slapmymoto, thanks for trying,can anyone else help?
Why do you need to be in recovery. You should have write protect off already. If you are trying to flash something you can't without safestrap and the zip needs yo be made for safestrap. Just manually move the emails and change the permissions
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app
Press Power + Volume Up at the same time when it shows "no command" (And if that doesn't work try Power + Volume Down )

If the button presses while rebooting to get to where you can select recovery doesn't work... You could try Quick Reboot -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot to reboot into recovery, or open a command prompt on your PC.. and issue the command.. adb reboot bootloader then pick recovery from there.. If those ways also error with that same message you are seeing now, then your phone doesn't has a problem with its recovery partition.
As others have said, if you are rooted with Write Protection disabled (SlapMyMoto v1 thread tells you to run MotoWPNoMo first, to disable write protection, then follow its process), you should be able to go in, rename the old APK, and replace it with the new one (and set the attributes the same) without needing to be in recovery.
Then again, if you rooted with SlapMyMoto .5 (before the MotoWPNoMo was available), or you never did the MotoWPNoMo process that would explain why you want recovery... you're trying to boot to "recovery" so that you can boot with the Write Protection disabled so you can make this change.

Power off your Moto X
Next, boot into bootloader mode by holding Volume Down and Power
At the bootloader screen, use Volume Down and scroll to Recovery, then press Volume Up to select it
Once you rebooted into recovery mode you will see No Command. Hold Volume Up and press Power to show the recovery menu

That almost didn't work for me, till it did.
I was holding down volume up first, and about half a second to a second later the power button (while not having released volume up button). That didn't work.
I pressed both buttons exactly together, and it worked.

[Q] Startup Problem

My Motorola Atrix Hd won't boot up every time I turn the phone on the m logo shows up then goes to the recovery screen that have a red triangle their and stay their for a wild then goes back to the m logo how do i fix the problem
If it keeps going to recovery, you could try wiping cache and Dalvik to see of that happens. If this doesn't help, you may need to wipe the data partition too. If that doesn't help, you may have to re-flash the stock ROM.

how do i wipe the data partition
When you boot your phone, it goes right to the dead android all the time? If it does, that is recovery mode. I think you press the volume up key, select the option to wipe data, and reboot.
Special boot modes
Recovery: Hold Volume Down & Power simultaneously.
Bootloader: Hold Volume Up Volume Down & Power simultaneously. On the next screen use Volume Down to scroll to bootloader and then use Volume Up to select.
Fastboot: Hold Volume Up Volume Down & Power simultaneously. On the next screen use Volume Down to scroll to bootloader and then use Volume Up to select.

i did that but the phone is still doing the same thing
What ROM was your phone running? Does it have an unlocked bootloader? Did this happen after you did something to the ROM?
I am also have startup problems.
I manually restarted my phone and it fell into a black screen. No logo motorola. I made ​​all [power + volume (+, -)] => My phone booted into normal.
The cause of this problem?
Since I have a problem I did not start that way anymore: Power -> Reboot
Instead I just power off.

Custom Recovery access

Hi everyone, I've been reading several posts on the LG L90, particularly the D415 which is what I have and I do not have one thing clear.
How do I access the recovery mode when i turn the phone?
Yesterday I almost break my phone to test a custom room that was not discharged well, luckily I had a backup. If I did not have the backup, how I would initialized the phone?
Thank you everyone for your comments
Please forgive my English, it is not my native language.
With the phone off, hold VOL - and PWR buttons. When the LG logo appears, release and hold PWR button again. Wait for the blank screen to show up asking if you want to reset your phone, select YES twice and wait. If you have custom recovery, it will boot CWM/TWRP, if you are in stock recovery, your phone is going to reset the factory image IF you still have stock ROM in /system partition.
Another method to complete reset partitions and files to the factory image is to hold VOL + and plug USB cable, you phone will enter in download mode and you can follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-l90/general/guide-flash-stock-kdz-offline-lg-l90-t2803479
