its most likely overwriting the recovery when you boot into android normally, there are similar cases and different answers for this situation. have you tried flashing it via Rom manager off the play store?

Thanks for answering!
Yeah, I did flash recovery via Rom Manager. I searched for my device on the list for the right recovery and it said Clockworkmod recovery was succesfully flashed but it won't boot into it.

Make sure you have newest version by flashing through ROM manager.

He can't boot, therefor can't use ROM manager. Flash recovery.img from fastboot. You can find CWM recovery images here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=988686
If you don't know how to use fastboot and flash from it, just search xda, and you'll find many guides ...
Good luck!

Sorry, I'm a noob. Didn't see missing boot img in subject. Had problem flashing with ROM manager before until I updated Clockwork mod recovery. Thought it was similar problem. Lol. Duh.

Cwm recovery boot loop

Hi I've searched all over for the problem I've got but can't find the solution. My phone gets stuck in a boot loop when I put cwm recovery on and the only fix I've found needs Odin. I haven't got a computer so I was wandering if there is a zip I could flash that would fix the problem. Thanks in advance!

nope. use fastboot to flash recovery. nexus s hacks has links to everything you need. (USB & fastboot drivers, recovery img files, and su zip files)
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
replace the recovery.img with the actual filename of your recovery IMG file, then place the su zip on the root of your SD card & flash through recovery. I use cwm, but there are others available.

Maybe you can see in this wiki cyanogenMod ( iam sorry, i can not give the link because i have no permision to give the link
There's a lot instruction to instal android sdk, fastboot or instal CWM

I am going to install a custom ROM first time,Is it necessary to have boot loader unlocked in order to install any custom rom and kernel via cwm?
What could happen if boot loader is locked and ROM is installed?

As far as i know, all custom roms require the device to be rooted, firts of all you need to root/unlock your phone, then install Recovery Application that would help you flash custom rom (Like ClockWordMod) and after that flash your custom rom.
Btw all that info is located on this forum for each and any Android phone regardless of brand and model (at least 90% of them).

Yes you have to root your phone to root your phone you need to unlock bootloader than install recovery then you can install a custom ROM... You will find procedure in your device foram hopefully...
And rooting means to get Administrator privileges... I hope it helped.

If you are using cwm recovery it means your bootloader is already unlocked just put your desired rom zip file in sd card and then make a nandroid backup of your current rom.. You can make nandroid backup by going in cwm recovery and select backup and restore and follow the procedure..
After this do a factory reset and then install your rom....
I hope it helped.?
