You're able to boot normally? Just download clockwork mod and flash recovery, then try again.
Sent from my obnoxious finger using Swype
clockworkmodrecovery rom manager find and install
open it and touch flash clockworkmod recovery(first item)
select reboot into recovery manual
mount and storage select
mount USB storage
unmount
++++ go back +++++
install from zip sdcard
find
'' super user.zip'' flash
reboot
es file explorer select setting mark root explorer and mount file system after
select phone in file explorer find ''etc'' folder select and find ''install-recovery.sh'' file and rename file for example ''install-recovery.sheski'' and
open rom manager again touch flash clockworkmod recovery(first item)
check it...
please click thanks button
use root explorer rename or delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
and then go fastboot and reflash recovery img again
if you don't have root explorer , then every time you go to recovery , you must flash recovery img at fastboot mode , every time !!!
sorry guys but alot of this is new to me and im learning as i go. if i just rerun the one click root again will that install the cwm ?

it's empty i try to flash clockworkmod and original version
I can't root
The recovery is not sticking, which is pretty common with alot of us. Simply go into CWM and flash the latest recovery and then reboot. Your recovery will work then (atleast for that time)
a) use adb to flash the cwm recovery (fastboot flash recovery recoveryimagename.img)
b) start recovery on device
c) root via flashing superuser zip
d) reboot phone
e) download a file explorer capable of read and write operations (eg SuperManager)
f) start file explorer and set read/write enabled
g) rename install-recovery.sh (eg to install-recovery-old.sh) in /system/etc folder
h) flash cwm recovery again using adb (basically repeat a))
Now your recovery won't be deleted after a reboot.
For this method u need to have rooted phone.
Hello guys.
I will show u the way how you can install cwm recovery mod on your android device using android application.
It's much easier then using adb command (for some users) .
First you need to download mobile_uncle _tool.apk.
You can download it from google play store or from this link: DOWNLOAD
Then you need to download cwm recovery from their official site or just google cwm and your device name.
When you download recovery, copy file to root on sd card and rename it to "recovery".
Note: if is recovery zipped, unzip it using winrar or 7-zip and rename it to recovery and copy into root of sd card.
Open mobile_uncle_tools and press "flash recovery from sd card", select recovery.iso and then program will do everything.
Your phone will reboot into new recovery.
Done
Cheers :highfive:
I want to replace my bootloader with CWN for additional flexibility. I have rooted device, activated USB, mount device, RW preveliges and nothing works.
Bootloader is stock Android system recovery 3e
Option 1-
I stored custom recovery 3e (without signature verification) on root of SDcard
Bootloader does not show .../ recovery file on SDcard root directory. Root empty!
Option 2-
ROM Manager does not recognise STAR
Option 3-
Flashify tells me I do not have signature previlegies when I try to flash custom recovery 3e from SD card..
Option 4-
Used Mount/System for RW previlegies
Used Root File Ultra Explorer and Root Browser to copy recovery file (as per yutube demo and other sources) in /Dev/St9 /System/Bin to take effect on reboot. But directory does not exist on my cell!
Where do I put recovery file? OR Another way of doing this?
Thanks

Hey Guyz,
I found a new way to revert back to MIUI V5 from MIUI V6.
As me many of us hav very slow internet connection due to which we are not able to download via TWRP recovery Manager. To avoid downloading i found new way
## First, you have to root your phone.
Steps:
Download the file Root_HM1S_MIUI6_Global.zip and put it in root of sdcard (Use internal)
Launch the Updater app
From the menu select 'Choose update package', and navigate to root of sdcard and select Root_HM1S_MIUI6_Global.zip
The updater app now reboots into the recovery, installs the update and then reboot
After the reboot has finished, You will able to see a new app namely SuperSU.
Open it one popup will aris and choose 'Continue' to update the SU binary
7. In the next dialog select 'Normal' and an updated su binary will get installed
8. Finally confirm to 'Reboot' after the successful installation
## Now Download Flashify App
## After that download TWRP or Philz Recovery and extract it
##There u will find the recovery.img file navigate it to root of sdcard
##Now Open Flashify App
##Select Recovery image
##There Select choose a file
##And navigate to the Image and select it..
##Wait for few seconds popup will appear Flash complete and there select reboot now
##Now you will reboot to recovery
For TWRP Recovery:
#Now open recovery and go to wipe. And go to advance menu and wipe you all data internal storage an everything except external storage.
#After successfully wipe your phone. Go to reboot menu and reboot to recovery. It will back you again to TWRP recovery.
#Now select install. And it will show your phone storage but you can go up lavel A and choose external_SD and select your download v5 ROM.
#After select the ROM flash it....
#And it will successfully flash(it may take some time) and now touch reboot option below.
#Successfully Reverted back to MIUI V5
For Philz Touch Recovery
#Navigate to Wipe and Format Option
#Select Wipe Cache , Dalvik Cache, And then Select Factory Reset
#After that Select "Clean to Install a New ROM"
#Now Select ++++Go Back++++
#Select Install Zip
#Choose zip from external sdcard and Select the ROM
#Wait for few minutes and then reboot
#Successfully reverted back to MIUI V5..
