On the program extended controls(paid app), when you use the reboot function it boots in to clockwork recovery when it should just reboot the phone. Is there something to this or just a bunk function of the program? any ideas?

It's because the way clockwork works.
It's like if you do a battery pull, you boot into CWM. And you'd have to contact the developer of the app to get a fix most likely.
I found out everytime I reboot Clockwork comes up
This was happpening to me when I had ROM Manager along with Bootstrap Recovery installed so I just uninstalled the ROM Manager for now since we don't have custom ROMs yet.

Hi guys:
I have rooted my phone today using SuperOneClick root. Then I have installed ROM Manager, and installed Clockwork Recovery Mod 3.0.0.5. I have being reflashing Clockwork and recovery menu via ROM Manager because when I turn off my phone and turn it up (holding up power on and vol down button) and press to go to Recovery then appears the error image that is like an Android logo, cellphone and a yellow caution sign.
¿Can you guys help me? ¿What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!
That's the stock recovery. If you still have a stock rom, it will restore stock recovery unless you delete the following files:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
/system/recovery-from-boot.p

I don't understand.
I have installed to it CM7 last build. And is running without any problems, but I am scared that if I have some problem with the OS and I can't boot to recovery.
It has Clockwork Recovery Mod but I can access it unless I use ROM Manager to start it.
¿I need to delete those 2 files and It will be fixed?
Thanks!
That is definitely the stock recovery (Android with an exclamation in a triangle).
If you have CM7 installed, I've no idea how you got the stock recovery, but re-flashing another recovery should fix it. The two files I mentioned aren't included in CM7, so that's not the problem...
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Agree. That's the stock recovery. Sometimes you need to apply the new recovery twice under rom manager. I did have similar experience. Install a custom recovery again. I beg it will be fine next time. Hope this help.
When I first rooted using a one click method my custom recovery would only stick for one boot. On the xda nexus one wiki there's instructions on how to install a recovery after one click root and get it to stick.
Hope this helps!

Could somebody kindly tell me how to boot into clockwork recovery? I've tried reboot into recovery from cm7s built in poweroff menu, Rom manager, and manually(both pressing down volume at start, or holding the nook-button at start). Searching google the only answer I found is pressing the n-button for two seconds while booting, but that doesn't work. Do you have to have some jedi-like timing to get into recovery? Doesn't matter what I do, I always end up cm7.

No Jedi tricks.....I usually hold the n for a 6 count. Also, what version of recovery do you have? Current is 3.0.2.8. I had 3.0.1 do some flaky stuff the other day and had to flash current version

Thanks for the reply.
Yeah, that seems to be it. If I go in to Rom Manager, it says I don't even have clockwork installed. So I can't even tell which clockwork I used!
I used this guide when I installed CM7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1030227
So I should have installed Clockwork. A while since I did it, but going by my download map I used 3.0.1.0. But how should I flash the current version when I can't even access recovery?
Just use rom manager to flash the latest and greatest. Makes things a lot easier

Like Ace said. Boot CM7, open Rom Manager and one of the 1st menu options is flash recovery. Use that and it will install recovery to EMMC.

Thanks all. Usually I use cwm manually, wasn't aware of that Rom Manager made everything so easy. =)
Today, Koush added support for the Droid 3 to ClockworkMod.
This includes releasing a Droid 3 Bootstrap which I believe he'll have some download links for or be placing on the market.
BEWARE: If you plan on using the new bootstrap from Koush, PLEASE use the "Remove Recovery" button and uninstall my Bootstrap APK before installing his.
Don't use 2 Bootstrap APKs together. Universe Explode. Or, maybe it could be unpredictable if you decide to remove mine later.
Thank you for listening to this public service announcement.
i see it in the market
Whats the difference with this one and yours Hashcode? Are you still updating yours?
-smc
Its the newest version. It works with rom manager. Probably flashes all partitions, but not sure.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
So you don't need to install bootstrap before installing this?
So quick question, if we were to flash something and it ended up boot looping, like flashing a theme, how do we get back into cwm if we can't get back into android to access the app? Need to be able to restore in case something like this happens.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
No. You have to uninstall the previously released bootstrap/recovery. After which you install this new one.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Yep uninstall Hashcodes version from his app, then install the "Droid 3 bootstrap" on the market or from here http://t.co/IM110WZ3 then use clockwork mod to install the recovery for Droid 3 in the flashable list.

Yeah i'm also curious how your supposed to get back into recovery in case of a boot loop?
Are either you or Koush going to be continuing work on your alternate-system-partition scheme for making 2nd-init not an accident waiting to happen?

This. It is nice having official support, but the idea of keeping a 99% pure system and almost no risk of fubaring 2nd-init is extremely attractive.
Hmm not sure how to access the recovery from device power down using this, going to bptools just initiates a normal start up.
-smc
I too hope we see the 2nd init partition I Don't plan on installing the official at this point.
I used Hashcode's app to uninstall his recovery.. rebooted... downloaded Koush's Rom Manager from the market.. installed... started the app and flashed clockworkmod recovery... gave su permissions.... clicked Reboot into Recovery and it just reboots normally... no CWM... am i missing a step? is there a keyboard combo that will boot into CWM... vol-down+power only takes you to fastboot..
Thanks to all for continuing to develop this phone!

I seem to be having some issues getting this to work.
I uninstalled the Hashcode recovery, then removed his app. After that I downloaded the Droid3 recovery from the market and installed that. Going into Rom Manager, after a reboot, I was it did not list any Clockwork as being installed. I clicked on the list and Droid 3 was now one of the options so I applied that and went to test by having Rom manager reboot into recovery.
It sat there for a good 5 minutes on the red Motorola logo. Pulled the battery to reboot and it booted fine but I cannot figure out how to access the recovery.

Using the bootstrap app make sure you click bootstrap recovery then reboot recovery using the app. See if that helps.

I'm fairly new to the rooting business but I've been treading lightly. I have a few newbish questions that I need answering, and I thank you in advance.
Today, using Psouza's Moto-1-click tools, I restored my /system/app to its stock state, unrooted, reformatted, and then installed 5.6.890 (the official OTA version), followed by re-rooting.
I wished to make a full backup of the complete stock system, and so I purchased "Droid 3 Bootstrap" from the Android Market. I proceeded to boot into Recovery Mode and created a backup of my now stock system. I also went ahead and downloaded "ClockworkMod Recovery" from the market and paid for the premium version. I noticed that I can also make a backup from "ClockworkMod Recovery" in the same way that I made a backup from "Droid 3 Bootstrap."
Question is this...what's the difference between the 2? I know that ClockworkMod Recovery gives me the capability to flash different ROMS, which is the reason I purchased it (awaiting future ROMS, figured I'd just download it now). But did I have to download Droid 3 Bootstrap Recovery as well? Couldn't I have just backed up using CWM Recovery?
Basically, I'd like to know the difference between the two...in the most basic explanation, if at all possible. I'm still learning about all this and I really enjoy it, but I'd like to have a full grasp of what I'm doing exactly.
Thank you in advance.

I'm assuming the 'clockworkmod recovery' app is rom manager. Rom manager is best for easily downloading roms (if the developer sets it up on there, not all roms will be on rom manager). I personally recommend against using rom manager to do backups/restore/rom installs because it is known to cause some issues. So, my advice, just do it all manually to avoid problems down the road. All you need is the d3 bootstrapper app

Correct, the "CWM Recovery" I kept referring to is indeed Rom Manager, my apologies. So, in a nutshell, what you're recommending is; use D3 Bootstrap to create your custom backup, and use Rom Manager specifically for Mods only...correct?
I think he's saying to not use rom manager at all. You can flash roms from cwm recovery.
Edit: just to clarify I mean by booting into recovery using the bootstrapper and flashing a rom from there to avoid any issues caused from the rom manager

I recommend to not even use the rom manager app, as everything can be done manually. Roms can be downloaded from forum sites. Just remember to do a wipe data/factory reset each time you flash a new rom. This prevents fc issues. On hashcodes blog you can get a modified version of the koush bootstrapper app that let's you enter recovery from bptools. That way if you screw up /system and can boot straight into recovery, restore a nandroid and you're good to go.

I appreciate the responses. Could you explain to me how the modified version of D3 Bootstrapper allows you to enter recovery in case of a bootloop? What is "bptools" and how is it accessed if the phone won't boot up?
Edit: Also, what type of problems have been seen when using Rom Manager to flash Roms as opposed to a Bootstrapper? Aren't they both created by the same Dev? I would assume Rom Manager is just a more user-friendly method to flash Roms since it's so self-explanatory in the app itself.
Again, I appreciate the time you guys are taking to help me understand this.

When your phone is powered off hold the m button on the keyboard then press the power buttong(keeping m pressed) you'll then get a list of boot options. Volume down scrolls while volume up selects. Bptools is at the bottom. When you go to bptools then press volume up and enter it you will boot to clockworkmod recovery. This only works with the modified bootstrapper app. This way is much safer because its possible to soft brick the phone with the normal koush recovery and not be able to enter recovery. You'd then need to flash the xml files. The normal bootstrap app requires that phone bootloop before the custom recovery will kick in. As for rom manager, its had problems wiping data/factory reset I think. You can still use it, there's just a possibility of of the rom not working properly

Rom tool box has an option to reboot to recovery, also you could 'adb reboot recovery' from a command line. But if you have tried to manually enter recovery and all it did was factory reset your phone then most likely you don't have cwm installed. Idk the why but some zips do some weird things when flashing and I am assuming something has loaded the stock recovery back on your revo. Just reinstall cwm and you should be good to go.
I would also check and see if you have root access.

Which way do you boot into recovery since it has obviously worked for you. I re-installed CWM and rooted.
If you're on the stock Rom, then you will need to use an app(quick boot, Rom toolbox) or manually like you have been. If done manually it will still ask you about wiping the system, just accept twice and it should boot into cwm. Brokenout has it built into the power off menu

I just reset everything and delete all the files in the clockworkmod folder and re-flashed and it booted into CWM. Thank you for your suggestions
I know I might be a little late but you can flash cwm 6.0.1.1 via clockwork mod Rom manager... And it is has setup to reboot into recovery.
