when i try and boot into my recovery it does not go into it, it just stays at the MyTouch screen
Maybe you've flashed the wrong recovery?
Which device do you have? Which recovery?

I have my Nexus S 4g rooted and loaded with ClockworkMod 3.1.0.1 But doing the volume down and power method I can't get it to boot into recovery it just boots normal. In Rom manager if I goto boot into recovery it just takes me some other type of thing that is not recovery (looks like a download screen or something).
Any idea's?
Thanks.
Volume up and power is the correct combination.

and it also sounds like you need to reflash your recovery. dont flash it via rom manager, flash it via fastboot so that it sticks.
ya thanks. I just flashed it via fastboot. Booting phone up now and going to make sure I can still get to it manually. Thanks for the help. Just came from an Epic 4G so it's a bit different.
Ok, doesn't seem to be sticking for some reason... I just powered it up and then back down. Tried to boot back into recovery and same issue. Is there something else I need to do? Did forget to mention. After the fastboot method I can boot directly into clockworkmod then. But once I reboot it will not.
[edit]
Actually think I just found the solution... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856999 Will update if it fixed it. [/edit]
/// EDIT AGAIN
ya that fixed it. I didn't actually follow the steps. Since I knew I could push the recovery if something screwed up I just flashed crynogenmod and no more issues so that must have been it.
Hello I have an HTC One S, and I have been trying to put my stock recovery back up but somehow messed up my recovery all together, I have tried flashing my stock recovery image along with twrp, and when I select Recovery from Hboot, it just restarts into Hboot,
I'm stuck on this one
EDIT: I figured it out, helps if I change the recovery before I relock the bootloader
please help,

Reflash the previous version you were running.

Do not use TWRP manager to install recovery. Use Flashify.
TWRP manager flashes to the wrong block. It flashes to mmcblk0p43 where as you need to have it on mmcblk0p44.
What version of firmware are you on. You will need to update your boot image.
To get out on the bootloop I had to install a Rom which was viper Rom 2.4. When I boot my phone, it still shows the twrp splash screen with the red text at the bottom. Doesn't even show boot animation. Seems like it freezes then home screen pops up like nothing's wrong. Any way I can get my HTC splash and aninmation back. Tried flashing a new boot animation but won't take. Is it still trying to boot to twrp.

Like other person said. You flashed your recovery to your system. You need to go to boot loader an fastboot recovery so it goes where it is supposed to. Then enter recovery via bootloader so you r really in recovery then flash your ROM an it will take care of your issue. Always fastboot recovery to avoid these problems.
I did the same thing through TWRP manager, and reflashed recovery through fastboot, restored, works fine. Thanks for the fix

Glad to hear I could help.
I am having some issues trying to flash Recovery (TWRP). When ever I try to boot to Recovery after flashing it, it says "No command." even after I did everything correctly.
My Nexus 5s bootloader is unlocked and I am currently running Marshmallow 6.0.1 if that matters.

What do u mean it says no command, do u mean u still end up in stock recovery, the one with the android and triangle? If that's what's happening then u aren't flashing twrp correctly, or ur not booting strait to recovery after flashing it, how are u flashing it, via command line? If so do this:
fastboot flash recovery "recovery name here".zip
fastboot reboot recovery
That should fix your issue, if u don't boot straight to recovery after u flash it, or if u use something like flashify, when the device reboots it overwrites recovery with the stock recovery, which is what ur seeing

And after flashing the custom recovery again, do not unplug the USB cable or let the device boot. After flashing the recovery, the display should go back to the bootloader, use the volume rocker to highlight recovery, press the power to get into recovery. This will make sure that you flashed right this time. The TWRP logo should be display if everything goes right.
Recovery is flashed with the fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery name-of-file.img".

Yeah, sorry for missing that.. And do you need a rooted device in order to flash a TWRP?
Root is not required to flash a custom recovery or a custom rom.

It seems to me that this is only required with TWRP 3.0.0 while 2.8.7.1 will happily survive a normal system boot. I've tried right now, just one phone, back to back tests, no other changes.
How come the phone overwrites 3.0.0 with stock but leaves 2.8.7.1 untouched? This is weird.
Am I missing something, perhaps?
Hey. I dont understand I flash the custom recovery with odin but when i go into recovery I have stock recovery. I have tried twrp and Clockwork. Non works, The flash process is passed and complete. I wait for the phone to reboot and let it start up shut it down. Then go into recovery mode. I have taken out the battery before it starts up and go into recovery straight away but still stock... what is going wrong? I have heard about bootloader But all say its no bootloader on for s2 plus. Any help is appreciated! Thank you. If something is unclear please ask. :good:I have tried 6 custom recovery's non works. but will flash

Your mistake is you are letting it boot into system before you boot into recovery. It doesn't work like that, you obviously haven't carefully and completely read the instructions to install custom recovery via Odin.
You have to flash the recovery and then boot immediately into recovery BEFORE allowing the device to boot into any other mode, otherwise, it reverts back to stock recovery.
Here is the simplest way to do this without screwing it up.
When you flash the recovery in Odin, make sure the "autoreboot" option in Odin is UNCHECKED, then flash the recovery. When it is done flashing, disconnect the device from PC, then, you have two options, either remove the battery then immediately reinsert the battery then boot into recovery using the button combination or disconnect device from PC then power the device off then boot into recovery using the button combination.
