[Q] EZ Recovery and Rom Manager not booting into recovery - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

All,
I'm rooted and unlocked. The weirdest thing I'm experiencing is that in both the EZ Recovery and Rom Manager, when I select to reboot into recovery, I'm not booting into ClockworkMod. I'm booting into stock recovery I think. The only time it would boot into ClockwordMod is when I flash touch clockwork mod then it would boot into the correct recovery.
Do I need to flash the Touch ClockworkMod every time I want to boot into recovery? Thats annoying.
Please help.
Thanks!

If you boot into stock recovery by selecting reboot recovery then CWM is simply not installed. Are you selecting the correct option in ez recovery to install the recovery?

I'm good now. I was on stock, but was rooted and unlocked. Like I said, it would work if I flash the recovery, but if I reboot into recovery again without flashing it would go back to stock recovery.
Anyways, I've flashed to CleanRom 4.0 and tested rebooting into recovery and sure enough it went to the ClockworkMod Recovery. So looks like I"m good.

It will do that on stock rom unless a couple of files are modified I believe. Doesn't do it on custom roms.

[Q] cannot boot in CWM recovery

Hello,
I have rooted my phone yesterday. Now I want to instal a custom ROM. I flashed the phone with ROM manager. Then I select the option: Boot into clockwork recovery. It reboots into recovery but the wrong one. It reboots into the android standard recovery. When I press on apply update.zip it will say signature failed.
I really have no clue what to do, please help me.
Try re-downloading the update.zip file again to make sure that one isnt corrupted
I have the same issue can't boot into clockworkmod. The samsung stock loader shows up
Select update.zip and it should load cwm

[Q] Nexus S ICS 4.0.4 & ROM Manager

I have rooted & unlocked the boot loader on my Nexus S with ICS 4.0.4. I had flashed a custom recovery and had flashed the SU. After re-boot, I found that that the custom recovery had gone and the stock recovery was appearing.
Later I installed ROM Manager and clicked on flash ClockWorkMod recovery. It downloaded & installed. Immediately I could boot in to ClockWorkMod recovery and see all the options. Later I wanted to flash a customer Kernel. When I tried the option in ROM manager to boot in to recovery, it goes in to the stock recovery.
What's wrong? How can I flash a Kernel now. Can I flash using the stock recovery? Why is the phone not saving the ClockWorkMod recovery?
try install cwm throught fastboot first (guide here). The cwm version of the guide is outdated, so make sure to download latest version of cwm.
Delete or rename /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and flash CWM one last time. It'll stick. Each boot, stock ROMs reflash the stock recovery unless you delete/rename that file.

[Q] Phone always boot into CWM or TWRP recovery

I've read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678055 and tried but after erasing recovery my phone will only boot to the gray LG logo with "fastboot v0.5"
If I fastboot it to flash another recovery (CWM or TWRP) my phone will only boot to recovery no matter what I tried.
Tried the zip file from here http://androidforums.com/esteem-all...ockworkmod-recovery-bootloop.html#post3767889 but still can't boot normally.
Tried flashing different roms while in both recoveries (acura, paranoid android,...), even restore my old ROM backups, but still it boots into recovery.
My 3D and vol+/- buttons seems ok.
Any help?
Just go back to V21E from the res
urrection guide and flash your desired ROM if you are going for CM10.
Then flash the bootloader without flashing the recovery, you already have one and to reboot to it I recommend downloading ROM Manager after installing CM10 and rebooting into recovery with it.

[Q] philz recovery

I recently got my phone to work by installing philz recovery, but when I flashed a custom ROM it changed my recovery to cyanogen recovery. Now I cannot get back to philz and the new one won't even let me do a backup. It sucks I want philz back. Can someone tell me what went wrong.
When I installed titanium it says I am not rooted anymore, what happened
Boot into fastboot and flash philz using fastboot commands.
Under Developer Options, you can disable Cyanogen recovery.

Trouble with twrp recovery

Hi everyone
I have a small trouble installing the twrp custom recovery. At the moment, I have the 8.1.4 Miui with MM 6.0.1 official rom. With this, comes the MiRecovery, as you all know. So, to have the twrp recovery I flash the cwm recovery first, via MiRecovery as "update.zip". After that I swich off the phone and get again into cwm recovery. After this, I install the twrp recovery. Until here, no problem. The troubles comes now: if I swich off the phone and get into recovery it goes correctly to twrp recovery, but when I reboot to system to start the phone, if I try to get again to the recovery it comes the MiRecovery, not the twrp.
What am I doing wrong?
(I flash the cwm recovery first because renaming the zip file of the twrp as update.zip, it does not work; that's why I install first the cwm recovery).
Any help will be wellcome.
Thanks in advance.
Toni.
