Can i back to stock recovery?

Is there anyway of back to stock recovery? I have twrp but i want to know if i can do this, with stock recovery and root i may install in future updates by ota?

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Use the stock recovery. You can also flash the entire stock image. So you'll always be able to take ota's
Read the pinned (stickies) threads in the general forum.

Here is a guide for how to setup ADB http://www.redmondpie.com/how-to-set-up-android-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-tutorial/ which is the hardest part for most users imo. The flashing is as @jd1639 says.

Is there anyway of flash a future offical firmware update (4.4.1 for example) with the twrp in the same way that a custom rom? Is there any official web where download the official firmware?

Not the official Google image as it will not install on a modified system, a modded one might be possible. But whats the point, might as well have a deodexed custom rom then.

If i install the stock rom the stock recovery will back too?

Yes, contains everything. Backup files first as it will wipe your device.

But can i restore only the recovery and not all the stock rom?

1. Setup adb if you haven`t, see for the link my previous post above for how to
2. Download factory image from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
3. Extract the downloaded image with 7-zip and then extract image-hammerhead-krt16m once and in the folder you find the recovery.img file
4. Flash that file in fastboot with the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and after that type fastboot erase cache and reboot. That`s it.

Look in the TWRP thread, TWRP has an option to flash OTA`s and keep root. Don`t know if it also applies for the Moto G yet. You can receive an OTA but you can`t install it directly when you have a custom recovery installed.

Allright. And if i alrdy flashed CWM, can i just "overflash" it with a TRMP image or any other Stock Recovery image via fastboot?
Thanks for your help!

Look in the CWM thread too, maybe it has the OTA flashing option too. Yes, you can overwrite a custom recovery with a new custom recovery but also in cmd type: fastboot erase cache after you flash a new recovery.

Last question
Would you stay on CWM and flash the OTA via CWM or go back to Stock when the update is available?
(Actually installed Infusion Beta2 4.3 and CWM an my motog)

Well i haven`t rooted my Moto G myself, but if the OTA flash option is not available in CWM/TWRP you have to flash a stock image to get the OTA or flash a KK based custom rom.

Well. So i just have to extract a Stock Recovery Image from an 4.3 Stock Rom. Flash it via fastboot and then erase cache and im fine?
Can i stay on the Infusion Rom too?

No, OTA`s can only be installed on a stock rom, kernel and recovery. If anything is altered or vital system components deleted the OTA will not install.

In case flashing the latest 4ext doesn't help. Usually 4ext gives an error code, what does it say when it aborts the intallation?

That zip can't be flashed. You need to extract the img in there, then boot into bootloader (fastboot) and use this command
"fastboot flash recovery [filename].img" (without quotes and replace "[filename]" with the actual name of the file)

I have the same problem he does, and I can confirm, locking and unlocking the bootloader doesnt do anything. I tried flashing several Stock images and the stock recovery and that didnt do the trick either

Did you try using toolboxes to flash the recovery via flashboot, or root and download rom manager to flash a recovery?

We cant root the device because its neccesary to have a custom recovery for this

Just use this fastboot to install any custom recovery you prefer. Dont let your cell phone reboot into the OS or the custom recovery you installed will be replaced by the stock one!
