I am trying to learn how to back up stock recovery. I've searched Google and xda for the proper way to back up my stock recovery it sounds like I should be using ADB but it's been a little confusing reading all the post. Some say you need the custom recovery but if I flash a custom recovery how will I get a back up of the stock recovery. I would just like a reliable source to do this. my bootloader is unlocked I am S-off I am running software 3.31.651.2. any help would be appreciated.
Why are you wanting to backup stock recovery?
It's fairly simple to fastboot flash stock recovery if you need to.
Oh yes very true its easy fastboot flash a stock recovery. But every time there is an OTA I search for a stock recovery that someone else has taken the time to pull I would just like to learn to do for myself. as an example I'm running 3.31.651.2 (why I took that OTA I dont know I'm sure what improvements it made) but I havent seen a stock recovery for that one.

Hi all
I have rooted and unlocked the bootloader but haven't taken the jump and stuck a ROM or kernel on as yet, as am actually quite happy with the stock ROM, and also rely on the headphones, amongst other things - which appear to be a problem on some of the ROMs.
If I do stick a custom ROM on, can I easily get back to the stock one, is there a stock ROM of that which I can flash via CWM ?
I understand that with CWM I (currently) have to instantly stick a ROM on, so presumably cant do a backup of the stock ROM at that point..before putting on FXP or some such
I presume I can use the sony update service, but would that wipe the root ...?
could someone enlighten me
many thanks

Take a backup of what you have now in recovery, and you can always restore.
Also there are plenty of stock .ftfs in the allin one thread in Q&A that can be flashed in flashtool
No.
if you flash cmw from the thread then yeas, but you have unlocke your bootloader, so just flash the advanced stock kernel and then you have recovery without having to reflash a rom...

I have to return my phone and I cannot get my stock recovery back onto my One. I followed the instructions that were played out in the guide I used but either did something wrong, or accidentally deleted the initial backup.
If anyone with the rogers variant could please help me by providing the stock rogers recovery.img i would be forever indebted to you. A stock nandroid would also work.

This thread has the OTA for rogers. In the folder there should be a firmware.zip file that contains a recovery. I was able to use the to upgrade to 1.29.631.17 from .4 (took 3 restarts) but I never tried to the 4.3 update.

so is the firmware.zip the Stock recovery file? If i flash it, will i go back to Stock recovery?
Currently i am on Stock Rom, but the recovery is TWRP... so if i try to update the latest 4.3 by Rogers, it opens up the TWRP recovery and sits there.,..

Sorry I forgot to add the link and had to wait 5min. It updated for me, but I didn't try all the way to 4.3 though since I heard it will change the hboot

Hi,
I had some trouble with updating my stock rom because of custom recovery, but now I got it managed. Now I want to backup my stock recovery, which is on my HTC One right now, before I install cwm again. How can I do that?
I found out, that you could remote boot cwm with fastboot (fastboot boot cmw.img) and finish a recovery over cwm, but remote booting seems not to work anymore. Are there any other ways to backup it either? It was such a pain in the ass getting the stock back, don't want to loose it anymore because of cwm.
Regards,
m00h
Which recovery you after?

What's your mainversion? You can find plenty of stock recoveries here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2463387
I'm on 3.62.401.1 right now, the latest stock OTA. I'm not sure which recovery this is, that's why I would prefer to backup the one I have flashed right now.

Thank you amigo, that was what I was looking for :good:
Or check this thread
I uploaded it after your request.
So I'm trying to go to 100% stock I flashed everything else but the stock recovery flashes but when I go to the recovery all I get is a dead android with red exclamation. I tried flashing the twrp and that flashes fine but the stock one from 5.0 & 5.0.1 both don't stick. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
The code I use to flash it is fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
Like I said with that code the twrp works but not the stock one.
I'm trying to flash stock recovery so I can use the ota that's was linked earlier in the general section.
Any help I greatly appreciated.

If you flashed a different recovery like TWRP then you'll have to use that again.. Have you rooted the phone before? If so, you probably have to flash stock firmware files one by one in Odin including flashing the recovery.

Since you've rooted the phone I'm gonna say the easiest way to fix this right now is to re-flash TWRP and download a rom that one of the devs on here have created and push it to the phone and use TWRP to flash it.. This is the best way for now since you are going to need a LOT more information and a better understanding of how to fully remove the root access because you cannot run a stock rom while rooted.. After you at least get it going then read around on here and you'll find all the answers and ways to fix things by those of us who've already been in your spot.

I'm trying to flash a custom rom but the most I can get it to do is hang up on the Samsung logo or a black screen, is there any specific roms I should try?
