Do you use SuperSU rather than Superuser? I think CWM recovery only look for Superuser, so if you have SuperSU installed it will think you aren't rooted.

Official CWM doesn't recognize the SuperSU binary. This is one of the reasons I don't recommend it, but rather PhilZ Touch CWM or TWRP.

Thanks

It helped me too, thanks

what did you guys do to fix this?
New cwm? Or Download superuser from the store and uninstall SuperSU? Can you guys please provide more details as this is driving me nuts to have to click on yes or no to fix root every time I go into Recovery. Or Should I use Twrp?
And, I'm surprised there aren't more people with this problem. Are we the only ones?

Obviously this topic is a little more difficult for me to figure out on my own and your response even though you're trying to help me does not help. I don't know what it means to just stop using super user when I'm using supersu? Am I supposed to uninstall supersu and then install superuser? Are these the same apps? And if I do flash another recovery like team win, do I have to uninstall ClockworkMod first? I have tried to look online for an answer to this and this thread is the only one with this problem which is mind boggling the amount of Nexus 5 users compared to the five people here who are experiencing this problem. So if you can direct me to another link that has more information, that would be great otherwise I'm not quite sure how to fix this when you guys said you did it so easily.

You replied to be as I was editing my post lol.
It only happens when you're using CWM + SuperSU, because CWM doesn't look for SuperSU, only for Superuser.
Just flash TWRP, CWM is horrible anyways. Or you could just ignore it and just press no every time. Makes no difference.
And you don't "uninstall" CWM then install TWRP. You flash it over (overwrite) CWM.

If your using super su, good. To change to twrp, which I recommend, just flash a twrp zip file in your current recovery. Google recovery zip collection xda.

SuperSU
Superuser
Two different things, both are root. Think Honda/Toyota (horrible analogy)
Pick your side. I think that's what's confusing you.

I just flashed twrp and it installed fine. Thank you.
Another question, yesterday when I had CWM on my phone, I did a NAND backup which I just deleted from Root Exlporer after installing TWRP, but do I need to also delete the Clockwork folders from Root Explorer as well now?

Yeah, you can't share backups between them as they do them differently.

[HELP] Why is EZ Recovery not working

Ok so I'm stock rooted and I want to install CWM 6.0.1.0, so I downloaded Ez Recovery from the market and also the apk from the original post here on XDA. But it will not install CWM. I tried all the options. Recovery, Hybrid, and Stock, but when I flash them and it says it was installed successfully I press reboot it takes me to stock recovery every time.
Whats the problem???
Is it possible someone could provide me with a link to the recovery img file or tell me how to fix this problem?
Thanks
This may be obvious, but are you selecting reboot recovery from ez app menu?
Yes, when I flash my recovery I press reboot
Have you run the superuser app initially? I had similar behavior in which it said it flashed but still had stock recovery. The initial run of superuser got things going and when I ran ez recovery again it asked for root permissions and worked as expected...

I saw you post this in beans thread but I didn't have a fix but then I remembered how I fixed this on my phone. Uninstall ez recovery and reinstall from market. There was a problem with the version numbers or something and this fixed that problem for me

Wondering if any of you guys have had the problem where it flashes the recovery successfully and you can reboot in CWM / TWRP just fine. Then once you get back into the system and try reboot recovery again, it goes straight to the stock recovery.
Is this normal? Do I have to flash the recover everytime?
There is something you need to do in recovery to make it persist, some option you need to select. I'm still not clear on what it is, because its been a long time since I used CWM. I hope someone will chime in with exactly what needs to be done to make it stick so I can be clear on it as well.

When you select reboot, it will tell you that it is reverting back to stock recovery unless you fix it. You scroll down and select yes and you are good to go.

This happened to me as well when I first rooted. I had to reboot a few times until the proper recovery booted. Now that I have flashed a Rom, CWM recovery boots properly every time.

[Q] Stuck on TWRP 2.5.0.0

My S3 is rooted with TWRP 2.5.0.0 installed and working fine. I want to upgrade to 2.6, but I'm having trouble. Stuck...
I tried GooManager using the "Install OpenRecoveryScript" menu item. It recognizes my device correctly, shows me the file it's going to download (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-d2vzw.imp) and proceeds to the download page. I get no progress or activity messages from here on until it's all over. After 5 seconds or so (less probably) a system message appears at the bottom that the recovery was installed. The message is in the same style as the hovering message that acknowledges an app attains root priv.
But when I boot into recovery, I'm still on 2.5.0.0. Anybody else have this problem?
(About me: I'm familiar and comfortable with most of the operations for flashing ROMs but I'm not deeply technical with Android...so I don't really know what needs to happen when you mess with a recovery image.)
Thanks,
David
Go to the official twrp website, search for our device (d2vzw), and download the latest img under "Download-Recovery Image Method (DD)," and download Flashify from the Play Store. Next, open Flashify, press "Recovery Image" and find the img file that you downloaded, and flash away.
Your advice worked. But I had to jump a few extra hoops that are probably worth documenting.
When I installed and ran Flashify, it told me I had lost root -- which would explain a lot. And YES, my SU app was gone.
So I researched how to get back root and found a post that recommended I confirm that I had really lost root. It recommended I install SuperSU app.
And they were right. SuperSUinstalled and obtained root. It could then grant root to Flashify AND I successfully flashed / upgraded TWRP to 2.6.3.1
I run SlimRom. I wonder what happened to their SU app...
Thanks again!

Cool! I'm using SlimKat and when I'm on AOSP, I don't usually have SuperSU since root is enabled in Developer Settings. I had to do the same on SlimBean as well. Of course, it doesn't matter now but it's there for future reference.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 4
That's what is so weird. I had enabled Root in Dev Options a while ago. But the app or system process or whatever seems to have stopped fishing out root. Installing a new SU app has brought things back to normal.
Glad to hear you're playing with SlimKat. That was the main reason I wanted to upgrade TWRP. I read you should be on a 2.6 version to flash SlimKat.

This phone can cause some weird bugs from time to time haha and yea, you need TWRP 2.6.3.1 to flash any KitKat rom. SlimKat is pretty smooth, just missing a lot of features while they make sure its stable.

After Root

OK yesterday I rooted my nexus 5 using chain fire. I then installed the ROM manger app to install CWM. Does this mean I can now flash ROMs or zip files (eg. Beats audio) straight away or am I missing steps.
Sorry and thank you in advanced

You need to head to CWM recovery and then flash the rom.zip files...
Make sure you do a complete wipe before installing a new rom...

Dude, uninstall Rom Manager asap and never use it again, this has always been a terrible app and now its real terrible. Flash a custom recovery with Flashify (Play) or in fastboot (fastboot flash recovery namerecovery.img). Rom Manger is not a solution but a problem.
Sorry I don't understand!!! I have been using CWM for a very long time. I am just asking now that I am able to flash ROMs?

Rom Manager is unstable and buggy mate, if you have a working recovery then you`re lucky. Make sure to backup your current rom before you start flashing and backup your EFS folder and store it on the PC to be sure.

ART is still experimental atm and some apps are not optimized for it yet. That can cause bootloops in some cases. If that should happen restore the backup.

Dude, @gee2012 is just trying to help, and is right about RM. I used it back in the day on my Nexus One running CM before there were any alternatives. Over time, RM got wonkier and wonkier, ending up an app that is best avoided. I recommend that you take the advice of a recognized contributer, and don't continue to be loyal to a has-been app that could bork your system.

Sure it is. I was talking about Rom Manager, please don`t ever use it again. Just for your sake mate.
Everything said about Rom Manager is 100% correct; it's long been known to brick some phones, due to the recovery files it lists not being compatible with a lot of devices (and poorly defined).
Great advice, @PhilipTD and @gee2012.
Haha OK. I just like CWM so I used it to install it. How do I boot into CWM without using the app? So I can delete ROM manger after

Further to @gee2012's response, rather than switch to ART, and thereby forego the use of Xposed, check out the optimized Dalvik library.

I don't need closed framework. So uninstalling and then switching ART should work? I'm scared it will go into a bootloop!

If it works for you, it works. Don`t have to flash it twice. Look above @PhilipTD`s post for Philz Touch CWM, which is even better and has more options than CWM. Its a zip and you can flash it in CWM.
And its noob, not noon

[Q] Lost root with Slimkat

Hello, two days ago I rooted my Nexus 5 and unlocked the bootloader. Yesterday I wanted to install custom rom, I decided on Slimkat, and when it was installed, I didn't have root permissions. I've never seen a ROM without root. I've tried all the usual ways of rooting, but I can't root it.
Do any of you know how?
download supersu http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
boot into your custom recovery, then flash supersu. reboot after.
you have to flash the superuser binaries whenever you flash with many n5 roms.
you'll also need to enable root access in the Developer options.
...all in the slim FAQ mentioned in the slim thread

Because it's compiled with superuser in the settings menu like many other aosp roms. You only have to activate root by turning it on in settings

[Q] clockworkmod recovery got replaced by stock recovery on cm11

hello guys
i installed cm11 through one click installer had cwm on it now suddenly after reboot its taking me to simple recovery?!?
dont know what happened..need help
in my rom manager app its still showing current recovery as cwm 6.0.4.5 but when i reboot to recovery it takes me to simple recovery
pls help!
ok edit : when i go to recovery from rom manager app it takes me to cwm but when i do it manually ( advanced power button and volume + power button) it takes me to simple?
edit again : when i click on install from sd card (to install m9) it takes me back to simple recovery even from within rom manager??
first off, get rid of rom manager. itll has so many issues and will cause you many headaches. what you did first is not flash a recovery to your device, you just booted it. thats only for a one time use. you need to flash the custom recovery to have it permanently on your phone.
Reflash your recovery. And I recommend TWRP. I hear complaints ALL the time with CWR due to bugs but never TWRP. I've used CWR in the past on my Droid X. But I've since gone TWRP and I'm never looking back.

use the flashify app, its free, and can be used to flash other things besides a recovery. its a great app. you dont need rom manager to get into a recovery ever. if you press the power button(long), youll get a menu, press reboot. then youll get 3 more option, reboot/recovery/bootloader, press recovery(after you use flashify to flash your recovery).
I recommended Rom Installer over Flashify. It will download your recovery for you and keep it up to date. It will provide ROM updates. Also you can create a queue of zips to flash before you reboot. Then it flashes them automatically. It's a really good app. Way better then ROM Manager. Made by Jrummy so you know it's good . Not trying to bash @simms22. It's just my preferred app.
