Install [NUT]'s dual recovery. As far as I know it's the only one that works properly with 4.2.2.

This happens because the recovery actually is not associated with the kenel/bootloader.
It is actually installed on the android system. However, you can avoid this by flashing the recovery again after each time you flash an new rom.
Before you reboot, for sure.

I was going to say that, but the OP states he is on a stock rooted rom, therefore it hasn't been lost because /system was overwritten.
It is true, however, that the recovery I linked to is the only one that works after the first time booting into it on stock 423 roms. If you look in the thread for CWM for locked bootloaders, you will see people complaining of the same problem as the OP.

If you're just installing mods with it, then it shouldn't disappear. If it does, then report it in the thread.
If you mean it disappears when installing a custom rom, then that is normal.
It says this in the OP of the dual recovery thread -

of course i know that i should flash the dual recovery after i install a new rom
but this happened before with cwm and twrp
Firstly, (from what I am reading in various threads), the versions of CWM and TWRP available in the development section do not work properly with 4.2.2 and will definitely disappear after a reboot in 4.2.2 based roms.
Have you installed version 2.5 of the dual recovery, as that is required for 4.2.2 roms? Earlier versions will also disappear after a reboot, I believe.
If so, have you manually updated your version of busybox? This can stop the dual recovery working according to what [NUT] Says in his thread.
If none of that applies, go report it to [NUT] in the dual recovery thread. I'm sure he will be happy to help.

Alright so here's the deal. I just rooted my phone (the superuser app is present in the menu).
There is a custom clockwork recovery thing I got going on..
So I`m trying to follow some tutorials (say the official Cyanogenmod one!) which tell you to select "install from zip" when the clockwork recovery thing is loaded. So I do that, and install the recommended stable version cm-7.2.0-p990. (Oh and I've done it about 5 times now.)
The next step is to reboot and enjoy Cyanogenmod.. except that after the reboot I just get a clean version of the official ROM again, where I have to go through the initial setup.. So what the heck am I doing wrong here ?
What bootloader are you on? What version of stock ROM you have? How did you root and install CWM? Answer these then we can move on.
I rooted my phone using the AIO-ToolKit listed here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737
After that I flashed the recovery using Nvflash-Recovery program through batch, which makes the phone boot CWM recovery. (Had to install some APX driver on my PC first)
My phone is running the latest official rom available : Android 4.0.4 kernel 2.6.39.4

Okay weird, http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_p990 clearly suggest using Clockworkrecoverymod recovery.
What do you suggest for bootloader ? Since there doesnt seem to be a later Cyanogenmod version for the LG P990
why don't you simply go to developer section of p990 forum and find yourself a good working CM10 or CM10.1 rom for new bootloader?
every thread has the instructions/features described in the first 3 posts...
ps:
CWM has nothing to do with your problem here...
yes as above said go to development section, there you can find listed all roms for new bootloader. they SHOULD work

Hi all,
I have problem with rooting of my moto.
I had finally found solution to bring recovery into phone by this thread (any other didnt work)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2166646
Then I try zip from mattlgroff thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2123369,
in recovery is writen that flashing is complete, but after reboot there isnt any superuser application in drawer so it seems that phone isnt rooted.
I have XT890 JB, retail.en.EU, bootloader unlocked
Do you know where can be problem, or what Iam doing wrong?
Thanks in advance
Hmm, dunno. Maybe reinstall the zip a second time? Otherwise, u can always use a pre rooted ROM from the development section

As far as I know there is no way to install a recovery without unlocking the Bootloader and you will need CWM or TWRP to install this fix.

I have twrp installed would it hurt if I tried installing the zip?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk now Free
How did you install TWRP if your phone is not unlocked?
If you have a working recovery it would not hurt to install the fix, as it seems to be the only installation method
Of course I can not garuantee for anything.
Because you do not need to unlock to install recovery....
Just flash the zip in either cmw or twrp recovery
Or just extract the build.prop from the zip and push it manually.
But to be honest, why does barclays need a build.prop tweak to work. I wouldn't trust my bank in this case

I know is slightly OT, but how would I do that? I thought you would have to flash some custom kernel to get a working recovery. The dual recovery for locked BL is still work in progress isn't it?
Thanks in advance!
It works fine for 40 seconds then reboots. That's more than enough to flash a small zip like that. It just is not write long enough for a backup or restore.
Also you do not flash a partition for recovery as Sony devices do not have a recovery partition. Recovery on Sony devices hijacks the chargemon file to boot up into it.
I am not 100% sure about all the technicalities so don't shoot me if I am wrong on that, but the recovery for locked bootloaders will work for small flashes.

Only way with a locked Bootloader is described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2455959
But it is still in development and I would not advise it if you're not 100% sure what you're doing.
You could also unlock your phone and flash the Advanced Stock, Doom or any other kernel containing a recovery, but you will loose your Sony DRM Keys (Camera, X-Reality,...). They can be backed up (Backup TA partition) and restored, but the procedure is not that easy either.
Is this banking app really that important?

I understand that bit, but rooting does not affect the build.prop, so why would modding it let the app think your phone is not rooted? Please can you send me a link to the thread you posted a picture of so I can look inside the zip and see what it is trying to do

bumping this thread as it's related to my post since that's my Cwm zip in op, barclays checks the build prop for the debug keys and if it's successful says Device is rooted, barclays latest versions have much more advanced detection methods

Does it wipe whole data, including user data?
Right now I use stock 4.3 only with root and custom TWRP recovery. It would be the best for me to flash .ZIP file with rooted 4.4 trough recovery
At the beginning you have to choose if you want to format the user data. But ur right, the easiest way for those with custom recovery is a flashable ZIP.

For a Wi-Fi tablet, you really generally only have to push /system and maybe /boot through fastboot. It's two terminal commands, which is rather faster much of the time. That said, that presumes familiarity and comfort with the fastboot tool.

Especially that I don't want to backup all my aps with TB. And I don't even know it there's root already for N7's kitkat so I could restore all apps with Titanium Backup
Going back to stock and flashing the OTA using TWRP was the easiest method for me, now I got 4.4 rooted with OC and perfectly running.

All y'all are overcomplicating this. There is nothing magical about the google script and download. Its just 4 partition images (boot, system, data and recovery) and batch file that runs a simple script to flash them. We already have the data we want and the recovery we want. So pull the images out of the file (they are buried under three compressions...its ridiculous). Pull boot.img and system.img. Then boot to recovery and factory reset. Then boot to bootloader. Then in a terminal on your PC, fastboot flash boot boot.img then fastboot flash system system.img. The reboot to recovery and flash the latest supersu.zip. The reboot, setup and restore with Titanium. Done. No need to ditch your recovery or blow away the media section of data.
Caveat...this assumes you are already on bootloader 4.23. There is no new bootloader for KK.
Can someone post power.grouper.so from /system/lib/hw 4.3 version? can't flash 4.4 because custom kernel and that file is unexpected contents... flashing stock kernel didn't help
Waiting patiently, I know it'll be out eventually and I'm in no rush. My tablet's usb connection hasn't worked in a long time, it charges fine but lsusb never registers anything. It's a hardware problem, I replaced the screen last month and I noticed the plug was slightly damaged.
TL;DR Some of us can only upgrade from a flashable zip, no usb connection means no fastboot
Thanks

Hi there, I'm new here. I'd like to ask anyone who know about blootloader. I have one issue with my phone. A few days ago, (more accurate - 1-2 weeks) I did rooting for my phone Xperia Z. Before that, I checked the configuration, and then I was allowed to unlock it. But now, (after rooting) i'm not able to do that anymore. How to understand that?
Before rooting was writting : „Allowed to unlock bootloader: Yes“
After : „No“.
What the hell happend ?
Does software update will solve this issue with my phone ?
What I shloud to do ?
I'm going to attach photo after rooting. I had contacted Sony HELP, but they said that I should search help anywhere else, 'cause they don't know anything about it or they can't say.
Maybe they can't answer 'cause I'm living in another country in which there's no Sony phone centre, only the main.
Any suggestions?

The method in that video is indeed the method that I linked to. You need to flash the file in recovery.
Try XZDualRecovery If you need a recovery. It should work, but I cannot be 100% on that as it seems you're on quite an old 4.1 firmware version.
