When ever the device boots up it's always into cwm 3.
I've tried flashing cwm v5 and it's still v3 after the install says successful
I flashed a Rom and I can coldboot into it. I downloaded goomanger and did the twrp recovery install just trying to get ride of CWM all together. It rebooted after the twrp download and it rebooted back into CWM v3.
I'm out of ideas.

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 The cwm version of the guide is outdated, so make sure to download latest version of cwm.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.
After installing openscript recovery TWRP 2.2.1 via goo manager and then realize the recovery could not mount system or install any zip. I then try to revert back to team rogue xm recovery 1.5.0 with sucess by installing the recovery zip in TWRP (although some error due to system unable to mount). Got pretty happy that I'm able to revert back to rogue recovery but now faces this STUCK in automatic rebooting to recovery everytime I've try to reboot. I wipes everything completed 3x and install new rom but can't ever boot pass the recovery. I have yet to revert back to stock via softbrick method and figure I should ask for help first before unroot and unlock to start from scratch. below is an image of when ever I booted my xoom. Thanks for any help.
Oh, I've search first but noon seem to have the same problem as mine.
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.
I flashed cwm awhile ago and want to go back to twrp whenever i flash twrp it will boot to it once, then cwm is back after the next boot. any idea what i did wrong?
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.
