I take no credit for this. I just thought i would share it. There hasnt been too much talk about it besides the bootstrap recovery thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385283
At the bottom of the post there are 2 zip files, one to flash the recovery on boot and one to remove recovery on boot.
Me, as well as a few others have tested this on our atrix 2 and have seen exceptional results. There are minor bugs but thats why I remove it if I dont need it.
Bug1- seems to make gps weird
Bug2- removes oc on rebel rom, maybe others
Bug3: tell me
Thia allows you to boot straight into recovery on every boot. I use it as a savehaven. I flash it before i flash something and if it doesnt put me in a boot loop i reboot recovery and flash the second zip file.
If ive posted in the wrong forum, feel free to move it. Thanks.

Re: "minor bugs". What do we mean when we say "makes GPS weird"?
My GPS worked until I installed RAZR-CWMOnBoot-Global-J.Y.Daddy.zip file. Do we have a fix for this?

From what the OP says, this shouldnt effect gps. Some users have had it affect gps, some havent. The only fix as of this moment is removal of the mod. But i never use it unless i flasg something, then i disable it anyways, so gps was never an issue

We need to figure out why this behavior is occurring and correct it. It woulld be too easy to flash something experimental and forget just that one time to re-install the OnBoot utility. I need GPS working.

Does having cwm on boot installed give you a flashing green led whenever you turn your screen off?? Or is it just me? I've been trying to figure out what's causing this for a couple days now..
EDIT: nope. I just uninstalled it and rebooted a couple of times and it still flashes.. no notifications, just the led.. might have to make this a question in the general thread...

By "program" do you mean the app? If not, download the app from the market (Play Store).
Or, just fix permissions in ROM Manager. Works every time for me.
That's the issue I'm having is that rom manager/cwm isn't fixing permissions

It is impossible to fix permissions unless busybox is installed properly.
Yup, needs busybox. Download the app and install it.
PS--When people say cwm on this site they mean cwm recovery, not rom manager. Not everyone uses the term correctly of course, but just thought I'd let ya know.

True, I understand that. Not trying to be a jerk by pointing that out, it's just very confusing to those of us trying to help when people get this mixed up.

well ill take note of those differences aha thanks for the heads up, and im gonna try installing the 17b update and see if that fixes my issues
just a quick edit:
when i do go into busybox its the free version and it says "BusyBox null is installed" then "Busybox is installed to sh:<stdin>[1]:not found"
then gives me the option to install 1.20.1
so do i need to spend the money to upgrade to busy box pro?

I didnt. I just went to the market and typed busybox downloaded the app and installed it that way... the app just says busybox not busybox installer. I think stericson is the app dev on the one I'm talking about....

holy sweet bleep it worked, i dont know how but it finally installed lol.
I went to update to 17 on sky ics, it was taking forever in recovery so i rebooted the phone, tried busybox again and it said it was SUCESSFUL!!
Edit
Lol so I noticed I had to do a delvik cache clear to get busy box to install but even after install and permission rewrite it still won't install 17 for me
aha well thanks for your help everyone.
I know I know... There are a lot of things I am good with... android...is new for me.
I have a galaxy note and I dont know the first thing about .apk files or rooting, etc.... I dont mind the way it works now... BUT
I want S Voice. (duh)
as you can see from my sig... Its be A WHILE since I have hacked/modded phones. Then I went to the iPhone for a few models and now I am back...
I downloaded "apkinstaller" and "appinstaller" but niether will load the apk I got off of xda.
I loaded the .apk to my external sd and made enables the ability to load apps that arent from the android market.
Do I need to delete something? Or what... I really need someone to give me a "step by step, you're an idiot" way of getting this done. I really dont want to root my phone if I dont have to.
Thanks to anyone who helps!
you shouldnt need to root to install apk's as long as you have checked off ability to install apps that arent from market. I have been doing that from my dropbox since my phone was stock everything. Maybe the apk is broken. Try downloading it again. Maybe even try downloading another apk just to test if it installs properly.
I will try that now.

actually I dont think that S Voice is an apk. From what I read quickly is that it needs to be flashed via CWM. Which is a bit more complicated than installing an apk.

I dont really have the time to read up on all of it but from what I have you may need to be rooted and remove voice talk first. I think a few of the custom ROMS also have S Voice installed on them already. This is a trickier apk than usual. Would be great if someone with more experience on S Voice would jump in and show you the steps. Sorry I couldnt be of more help.

not sure if this needs to be pushed to system/app rather than installed?
if it won't install I'm sure you'll need to be rooted.

say what? (told you I am a newb)
it is, in this state (unrooted), impossible to get it working.
You need to have root-acces (which you stated you don't have), because you have to replace the usual voice talk with the S-voice application.
You can of course root your phone, read up, and install the mod.
OMG you're such a NOOB! Kidding, just kidding. Well no actually, but that's just how it is

If you're on GB then you can simply extract the AllShare.apk from a ROM that has it or go in one of lumins thing and look for the APK. IF it fails to install try pushing it and fixing permissions. It will most likely fail because it has Samsung proprietary stuff so just follow Lumins guide if nothing goes into plan.
If it doesn't work at all then I'm sorry, it might need other proprietary stuff like Swype.

Today is your lucky day...
I had to flash back to stock, and I remembered this thread, lucky you.
so... here is the apk, not sure it will work because is may have dependencies, but try it out.
apk does not say AllShare, but the icon matches the app in the drawer.
if it won't install, push it to the system\apps folder with a root file explorer.

Just curious, did it install or did you have to push it?
I was afraid that would be the case. It most likely has touchwiz and other proprietary Samsung files it depends on. Possibly even the kernel like wifi calling.

You can see in logcat when an apk won't install because it is missing something -- and it will usually say what. I've seen clear logcat indications that TW libraries are what is missing on Memo.apk, for example.
