Stock roms replace clockwork with standard recovery, u have to remove a file to stop this happening. I know what I am asking for exists, I just can't find one with a working download link.

Thanks I did see that, but that has tweeks etc.. I am looking for straight stock, not altered except for root and that recovery file removed.
If all you're out to do is keep Clockwork, flash this after flashing (but before booting into) stock rom.

This and keep root, should I just flash super user zip at the same time?
Thanks for the help.
Yeah, that will work. What the above zip does is remove the script file that regenerates stock Android recovery, so Clockwork doesn't get deleted on every boot.

I'd advise you to read my post in this thread a while ago.
Once boot.img was mentioned I was able to get it all working with a custom rom! I just didn't know what to look/search for!
First time flashing a custom, so I do appologise.
Many thanks
okay so i have a old android phone (1.6 donut) (rooted) Htc tattoo/click i want to install clockworkmod recovery and then flash cm7 with 2.3 gingerbread so i can overclock it and maybe i dont know i need a custom kernel?
so can anyone help me to get clockworkmod recovery to work?
Here you go. I'm not going to kill you over not searching, sometimes it can seem like a vast ocean of info and be overwhelming, but you can run a search for the tatoo/click forum and usually in ANY forum the rooting/flashing stuff is stickied to the development forum.
Just wanted to give you a heads up for easier searching next time, here's the link you need.

CWM is "ClockWorkMod recovery" it is a custom recovery. Download the ROM again and try again, it might be failing the MD5 check.
Check out that thread for the latest recovery version etc...

No, it means you are going to have to trial and error some things.
Flash this recovery, then try the ROM again.

THEN flash CM7 ROM, then full wipe + cache + Dalvik, then flash gapps, then restart. (just my personal preferred order)
edit: i would just flash it via adb
adb push recovery.img /sdcard/recovery.img
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
exit
exit
then just type adb reboot recovery and flash ROM
How do I un-root?

That depends on a lot of things.
Are you stock rooted, or are you running a custom ROM?
If you are stock rooted, do you have a custom recovery installed?
There are a bunch of ways to unroot. If you are stock rooted with stock recovery, you can remove SuperUser and the files associated with superuser in (going from memory) xbin.
If you have a (working) custom recovery (that you did not use ROM Manager to update) then you can simply flash the stock firmware in recovery (unzip the file from Asus 1 time).
If you have a TF101 (non-3G version) you can use NVFlash or EasyFlasher to flash back to stock in APX mode.
I am running KatKiss and CWM. I have superSU, and there is an option for "Full Unroot". Not sure if this would work, since I need stock rom. Would I do the full unroot, then just flash the stock rom? what would I do with the custom recovery then?
If I were to flash the stock rom, wouldn't it still be rooted, and also have custom recovery? I need to set it back to all stock and factory defaults

Yeah, that is a good guide.
No, you don't need a microSD card so long as your recovery can see the internal storage.

That is Stock Recovery. You can only flash the currently installed version of the Stock ROM or a newer version of the stock ROM with stock recovery.

i wasn't planning on flashing any roms yet. So this is normal then? just want to make sure everything is working fine, and is at stock now.
I thought maybe it was broken, or I did something wrong, that this is showing up.
Yup, that is normal.

Hi guys,
I was wondering if I should root my nexus 5... What advantages would it have over the unrooted phone apart from custom roms? Any special features?
Thanks!
No special features. But custom roms. Why wouldn't you root? My motto, if you can do it, do it. And put a recovery on.

Yes, besides custom roms/kernels also for Adblocking, Titanium/Nandroid Backup, theming and tweaking etc etc.

If it were me, I'd root it, put on a custom recovery, and make a nandroid of it right out of the box. Then I could always go back to brand new easily. Right now there are no custom roms but that will change fast.

If you full wipe yes, but you can restore apps and app data with Titanium Backup or Helium.

CF Auto Root is easy as pie, download and extract the right file, enable USB debugging on the phone, go into fastbootmode, connnect to the PC and select root.window.bat in the extracted file.

After you rooted install a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup and to be able to flash roms and kernels. First backup your apps and settings with TB or Helium.

You need to use a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup before installing a new ROM but yes, after you root, install a custom recovery, make a backup and copy it to a safe place that won't get wiped during ROM install, you are ready to play around. It is always a good safe practice to already have any necessary drivers on your computer so you can use fastboot to rescue your device if you make a mistake and brick it.
