So I am planning on to try the Bugless Beast on the wife's Moto Droid. The phone is rooted and holding root. I flash CWM via rom manager and it boots into CWM. HOWEVER !! If I re-boot the phone and then power it down and go back into recovery, it is back to stock recovery and not CWM.
How to permanently install CWM as doing it via rom manager seems to be a temporary flash? Odd ...
I'd hate to get half way through a rom flash and have it puke and be stuck with stock recovery !! Is there a link to a zip file copy of CWM I can flash onto the phone?
What am I missing here?

I installed CM6 stable on my N1 after performing a nand backup. I restored to the original rom today to check something out. Now I can't boot into recovery. I get the exclamation android Guy. I used amonRA. Any suggestions?
i've got the same error and i tried with awrecovery.img instead of recovery-RA-nexus-v1.7.0.img and its working

I think the stock ROM flashes stock recovery when you reboot. You are actually in stock recovery when you see that screen. Try hitting the volume down and power buttons at the same time. Same exact thing happened to me.
I just decided to skip the stock ROM for that reason.
I bet there is a workaround for it though.
One work around would be to flash recovery using rom manager.
pwig is right, you replaced your recovery with the stock one.
You need to re-root (if the stock isn't rooted - which I believe it isn't, since the only builds that include recovery are completely stock), and after rooting re-flash the recovery with Amon_RA's recovery.
I rooted my phone using the SuperOneClickMethod and then installed ROM Manager and flashed clockwork mod recovery onto my phone. After this i tried to backup and install a new rom onto my phone and when i would do that it woudlnt allow me to backup and it wouldnt let the rom install. it would just bring me to a recovery screen and i would have to reboot my phone. i tried unrooting, formatting the SD card, doing a system wipe and then trying it all over again and now when i try to boot into recovery it just shows a trangle with a cell phone laying down next to it. it doesnt let me do anything i have to pull my battery to reboot it and then it goes back to normal. What do i do to fix this?
PS: my Volume Up is broken so i cant even attempt to boot into stock recovery.
If you can't enter on recovery.
I think you will need to install the original ROM, just using RSD lite.
Or search for froyo version if don't need base.
Friends.
I recently installed fde rom having cwm recovery version 3.0.2. When I tried to return to gdx 28b it gave me an error and I accepted roms option of restoring recovery and could boot to gdx. But now the issue is I don't find cwm recovery when I reboot. How do I reinstall cwm recovery without going back to stock rom?

Can you boot in ROM? If so, boot in Fde, grab x8toolbox, plug phone in pc, enable usb debugging, and install CWM or FreeXperia recovery. If you can't boot into Rom, then shut your phone off. Turn it on again, press the screen repedeatly. If CWM doesn't show up, turn your phone off again, start it, and press&hold the volume down button until FreeXperia recovery shows up. If nothing shows up, flashtool is there for flashing ftf of stock rom.

Press thanks if i helped
It is clasic problem of stock kernel.There is no way without re flashing with flashtool .
Solved. After trying many things, went back to stock and repeated everything till gdx28.
CWM for X8 Stock rom only, I meant as ur Original recovery u can't use CWM, only can XRecovery.....
I Saw that from web and I didn't believe it that time, so i installed CWM on a custom rom then it stucked at SE Logo.....
u only can use CWM come with custom roms, but some roms don't work it
Hi,
I installed v30b for test but now i want to go back on cm10. I flashed a stock v20 with cwm with smartflash and i was able to boot in recovery. I tested to load my v20 rom but that alway come back to recovery, impossible to load my v20 rom. So, i tried to install cm10 and all was ok. But when i try to go in recovery mode, the phone restart without going into it and do a factory reset.
Now each time im trying to go in recovery mode, cm10 do a factory reset
What i can do for resolve this problem?
Flash cwm with rom manager
Sent from my phone powered by cm10, Big thanks to RC
Rom manager said im on 5.0.2.6. So i can only install the version 6 of cwm but it dont work(cant mount sd card)
So its impossible to install again 5.0.2.6 by rom manager. Because rom manager dont show old cwm version like before
Its very strange because before my v20cwm rom worked. Now i got boot loop in recovery mode. And if i install cm10, its impossible to go in recovery without factory reset
I tried to flash cwm with PC and i alway get "access denied" (debug on, mass storage off)
Oh yes i got it from ZEUS rom. Flashed cwm from UPK kit pack
thx!
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.
