[RECOVERY] Cyanogen recovery for Nexus 5

EDIT: Post removed since there's an official download now!
Just open download.cyanogenmod.org, choose your device and download the latest recovery
Much fun! Thanks CyanogenMod!

How to get back the automatic recovery update!
I activated 'Update Cyanogen update' but it doesn't work?!
Okay, so you activated the option + flashed a new build and Cyanogen recovery is still not there? Here's what's the cause and how to fix it:
Some third-party recovery systems (e.g. TWRP) prevent to be overwritten by deactivating the automatic recovery update function. This happens by renaming the file /system/recovery-from-boot.p into recovery-from-boot.bak.
To get that functionality back:
- Rename /system/recovery-from-boot.bak back to recovery-from-boot.p
- Execute /system/bin/install-recovery.sh to actually install Cyanogen recovery.
Both steps can be done with CM file manager. You have to give the app root access!
After performing the steps above you can use 'Update Cyanogen recovery' for the future builds to keep your recovery up to date.
You can use this method if you don't want to download/use the img file above or don't want to regularly update the recovery manually.
Questions:
If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask in this thread! I'm not a developer but I'll try my best to help you out

Seems like you're not having trouble with CM recovery. I've tried this before using the 2nd method of renaming and executing. I might go back to CM recovery in a while. I notice the latest TWRP 2.8.5.2 is not really clearing the data partitions of my device. Already gave you a +1 on the CM thread, but I will still give you one for this thread! Nice job!.

Yeah.. it's working fine for me
Thanks for the first comment on this thread! Really appreciate it

Just want to clear this one, does "Wipe data/factory reset" includes internal storage?

No, it doesn't Or at least shouldn't It didn't format internal storage on CWM and TWRP and the same should apply for CM recovery Would be freaking thankful if you could try that (of course backup ur internal storage before if you want to try)

I just wanted to pop into this thread and say that I installed cyanogen recovery (homebrewed)- it seems fine- gestures work well. There is no option to wipe system, but hey, dirty flashing is the in thing nowadays. Life is too short to wipe data and and then restore it from backup.
I did install PA gapps with cyanogen recovery - the PA script and the recovery graphics fight each other, but it's not like I have to look at it all the time. There is a lot of scrreen flashing between the script output and the little android dude. If you blink your eyes fast enough, you can see just one or the other.

Yeah, i also found out that CM recovery tries to 'hide' what's going on so that you can only see the green Andy Looks weird with PA GApps but works fine with official CM nightly builds

Am I able to update official nightlies with cyanogen recovery?
is the touch screen swipe based or touch based?

Did you even read the OP?

I removed my Google Drive link with the image files since there's an official download now!

Download the latest rom from our venomroms download page
If you got an external sdcard place the downloaded zip there. In case you haven't, wait for step 6 to copy it to your internal sdcard.
Backup your internal sdcard if you got important content on it. Unlocking bootloader will wipe all your data, including your internal sdcard. Your external sdcard will stay untouched.
Register at HTCdev if you dont have an account yet and follow the instructions there to unlock your bootloader
Boot up your phone and copy the rom to your internal sdcard in case you didn't in step one to your external.
Download the lastest TWRP Recovery version on the TRWP Download Page
Flash it with fastboot with following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (replace recovery.img with the actual filename it got downloaded with)
To boot into recovery use 'adb reboot recovery' or press and hold power + volume down and wait till it booted to the bootloader. From there you can navigate with the volume buttons and confirm with the power button to boot to the recovery
If you are coming from stock: Make a backup of your stock rom in TWRP recovery. Include System Image and Boot. Now you have a full stock backup, except recovery, in case you want to return back to stock one day.
Ensure you allow system modifications in TWRP when asked.
In TWRP click Install and pick the rom either from internal or external sdcard to install it.
The installer will start and will guide you through the installation

Why used Magisk 16.4? Whereas the Magisk stable version is 16.0?

the ss is not from yours

you are already on 8.1

8.1 or 8.0? The instructions are not clear...

its just like samsung experience, i relly like it )

It is working fine on my Galaxy A520F Exynos Model, so you can check that out from the compat. checklist. For some reason the os thinks this is a A520W, but this is a F Model. I had a problem where TWRP said that flashing failed with error 7, but then I restarted it and I flashed it and it worked. Also you actually don't need a SD Card for the flasheble zip, you can actually just turn MTP on and Mount the DATA partition and copy the zip from your computer to your phone. This ROM is pretty good!

Oops, wrong post.
