[Q] Cyanogen Recovery although I have ClockworkMod installed - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
I rooted and unlocked bootloader of my One Plus. I installed ClockwordMod recovery (ROM Manager Screenshot).
However if I boot into recovery it shows a Cyanogen Recovery instead of the ClockworkMod. When I then put device into fastboot and install ClockwordMod again it does boot into that recovery. However if I reboot and boot again into recovery, Cyanogen Recovery appears again.
Why is that and how do I fix this?

Did you remember to uncheck the 'update cm recovery' option in Developer Options? Also, don't use ROM Manager to install a recovery, just fastboot flash it.

Just checked and that option is ticked. I did just reflash CM recovery via fastboot. Again it boots into CM recovery after flashing. When I reboot and boot into recovery, again I see Cyanogen Recovery
MASSIVE EDIT: DOOOOHH I just re-read it and it says UNCHECK the option! I will uncheck it now and try again

I confirm that UNCHECKing the option in Developer Options fixed the problem! Thanks for the quick answer!

No worries.

Stuck with Cyanogen Recovery
Hi have the same problem on a Galaxy Nexus 2012 (Maguro) flashed Cyanogen 12.1 and now cannot boot to CWM. Am able to use Cyanogen recovery however it just does not have the full features of CWM.
Tried the advice posted above, however this did not work for me.
Does anyone know a way to either disable Cyanogen recovery or force boot into CWM?
All suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

You need to go and ask in the appropriate section for your device, this is the OnePlus One section, not the Galaxy Nexus section. Before you do though please make sure you search properly because the question has almost certainly been asked and answered already. The best place to start would be the ROM thread.

I have the same problem, in the cmd screen it says that I successfully have fastbooted twrp recovery to my opo, but when I reboot in recovery it shows the cyanogen one. I have android debugging enabled and cyanogen-recovery update disabled. I still cannot boot into TWRP. Before the update to cm 12.0 everything worked fine.

[Q][Help] Recovery flashed without uncheck the "Update recovery with system updates"

[Q][Help] Recovery flashed without uncheck the "Update recovery with system updates"
Hi all,
I'm in a trouble, i tried to flash TWRP without uncheck the "Update recovery with system updates" option (ik, silly error).. now i'm stuck in boot animation and no recovery .
Any help please?.. I'm guessing now only i can do something in fastboot ?
Thanks in advance
So you can't boot into the OS at all? Simply flashing a recovery shouldn't cause that, was there anything else you did?

Hey guys, same thing happened to me. Phone died, plugged it in for a bit and went to power back up. Stuck on boot screen. I'm able to boot into TWRP but it says 'no OS' installed. Downloaded the stock img from cyanogen and was able to successfully send via adb sidload the image zip but it won't flash.
The log shows 'E: Unable to mount '/system' whenever I attempt to do anything. HELP??

you can try to get in fastboot and install the whole system again.... or you can install the .zip via sideload in TWRP
go to a folder where you have adb and stuff copy the ROM .zip
can I just take it from the top and reinstall twrp? It seems like twrp can't mount the system?

I accidentally wiped the whole Phone

Since you wiped /system, you have no OS installed. So, either use fastboot to flash a system image, or transfer a ROM over to it and flash it via recovery. No biggie. I do recommend switching to TWRP from ClockworkMod though. Is ClockworkMod even supported anymore?

This guy is on the money. You've wiped it anyway, might as well just flash a fresh factory image and start from scratch, nice and clean.

I advise you to download Nexus root toolkit from Wugfresh. After you installed it (assuming you already have adb drivers), under "Restore/ Upgrade/Downgrade" click on "Soft-Bricked/Bootloop" and then on "Flash Stock + Unroot". The appliciation tells you what to do next.

And I advise against using toolkits. If you rely solely on toolkits, you'll never learn how to fix problems such as this. It's best to familiarize yourself with fastboot, you'll find that it is nowhere near as difficult to use as it seems, and you'll be equipped to get yourself out of pretty much any situation imaginable. Not to mention that toolkits are the culprits for many "Help! I bricked my phone and don't know what to do!" threads.

You don't need to uninstall CWM first, just use fastboot to flash TWRP with this command-
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img

No need to uninstall just:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-filename.img if recovery is in the same directory as fastboot or
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/your/recovery/recovery-filename.img
if the recovery is under /path/to/your/recovery/
You may drag and drop the file to you terminal or commandline...

There are also apps that allow you to flash a recovery image from within the OS. I prefer that because I keep my bootloader locked and flash the stock recovery for a little extra bit of security when I don't need to flash anything.

[Q] stuck in recovery, can't go to fastboot and system
After i flash cm12 3/3 rom,i can't open the system os and fastboot.
I tried to press power + vol up, but still boot into recovery ( TWPR)
Anyone know this problem please help me.
Don't you have a backup that you can restore? If not, you really should, at all times have a backup on your phone for this exact reason. If you don't have one, just connect your phone to your PC and copy a ROM zip across to it.

[Q] TWRP flash says successful... but stock recovery is still there?

Hey Guys. Im running cm12s on my oneplus one, and i would like to switch to oxygenOS because they are getting the touchscreen firmware fixes. Ive flashed recoveries onto multiple phones without this issue before.
I downloaded twrp, booted the phone into fastboot, unlocked it, got the success signal, flashed it, again, success, and then rebooted. Then i powered down and booted to recovery aaaand..... stock recovery. WTF? So i wipe all user data and clear the cache with the stock recovery and try again. Nope. Its still the stock recovery. i dont understand it. I tried with CWM aswell. It says success, so why did it not work? I booted into the OS and checked developer settings, and disabled update recovery and all that, Nevertheless, when i flash TWRP or CWM, it does not work. I dont understand how this could happen.
I followed the steps from the Official guide on the official oneplus forum, It wont let me post a link.
I am using an OEM samsung cable.
Can anyone help me?

Alright, I've just tried that. After flashing it, i Ran this command and as expected it rebooted back to the bootloader. Nothing else todo there, so i rebooted and booted to the recovery. It STILL boots to the stock recovery! So i tried again, but this time, i flashed it a second time after rebooting to the bootloader, but that still has not worked. is my unit defective? I will try now with another computer.

I figured it out!
I figured it out. Instead of rebooting after flashing the custom recovery and allowing cyanogen to re write it, i simply turned the phone off and booted directly to recovery and sure enough, TWRP. Problem solved. I dont understand why cyanogen would do that to me and not anyone else!

CM didn't just do that to you, it's happened to every single person who's tried to flash TWRP after taking the Lollipop update, that's why the question is included in the FAQ thread.
