Android 4.2.2 overwrites recovery at boot time

Hi. Some info about my Nexus 5:
ROM: stock
Kernel: stock
Bootloader: unlocked
Since when I have updated to 4.2.2 (flashing the update using CWM) my Nexus 5 overwrites any custom recovery with the stock one and it unroots during boot. This is very strange: it never happened before. CyanogenMod talks about this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So what?

Flash CWM again and before you reboot it'll ask if you want to disable the stock recovery flash so you just say yes

Well I have flashed it many times but it never asked me that...

After the OTA it will as the OTA adds a file to replace a custom recovery with stock. I just said 'yes' to remove this feature and it kept CWM from then on

So shall I flash the 4.2.2 OTA again? Or is it just too later?

It didn't ask me. However I followed this guide to do that manually and it worked. Thank you for your help.

[Completed] CWM Recovery for I-Ball Andi 4.5q and other MTK devices

HI THERE,
I m KARAN DEWANI and this post is for those who want a CWM recovery for their iball andi 4.5q and mtk firmware.
Any Android devices today has their own in-built CWM recovery utility ,through which can u install Rom, backup your old stock firmware and install a new one.
To boot into recovery, you just simply have to switch off your phone and then hold power button as well as the volume down button(in my case power + volume up).....
I-Ball andi 4.5q does not have an inbuilt CWM recovery as it is based on an old MTK firmware, so you cannot
do any tweakings like creating back up,etc.
Hence,carliv has made a recovery for mtk firmwares.

Need help to enter download mode screen. Getting "Android system recovery" screen.

I am trying to root this Samsung Note 10.1 N8020 and install a custom ROM with Odin. When I try to enter the download mode screen (Volume down + Power on), this is the screen that pops up. What should I do from here? Odin and windows do not recognize the tablet in this screen mode and I cannot root while android is booted up.
Exynos root program did not show an active option for rooting.
Thanks

I don't know what you are trying, but if you want to install a custom rom, your next step would be to flash twrp.
