How do i remove clockwork mod recovery?
at the moment the stock recovery images that are floating around wont flash over the clockwork recovery. unfortunately we have to wait a bit until google releases the stock recovery image that is flashable through fastboot
How to remove ClockworkOrange?
I can't seem to install any OTA updates because I can't quite figure out how to remove ClockworkOrange from my Nexus S.
Has anyone been able to go back to the Stock Bootloader?
Thanks,
Ricardo

If you haven't updated via the OTA yet you could flast this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884416
Then flash the OTA via CWM- reboot a few times and let system/etc/install-recovery.sh do it's thing.

Hi guys, I have my Nexus 4 with CWM + SuperSU and I want to ask about flash Stock Recovery..
When i choose reboot on CWM it says if I want to prevent the phone from flashing the Stock Recovery. I saw somewhere that we'll have Android 5.0 in September, I know I need to be Stock ROM, Stock Recovery, etc.. So can I just choose "no" and my Nexus 4 will flash automatically on the Stock Recovery?? or I need to manually flash via fastboot..
Another thing is: Do I need to unroot, or OTA will override the Root??
Thanks a lot, Sorry for bad English..

You are thinking too far ahead. When 5.0 will come out, there will be flashable zips available long before you get the official OTA update, so there's no need for the stock recovery.

Ok, but flash via Fastboot, or use the CWM option is the same or no?

Hi! I have my phone rooted and it has TWRP installed. Recently, I received the 5.1.1 OTA update, but when I hit the install button, it boots to the recovery and does nothing. How do I install the update using my current recovery?
Thanks!

Flash the stock images directly, or flash your phone back to stock/unroot and download the OTA from your phone and it will install.
If you have a custom recovery, the OTA will always fail verification checks I think now on 5.+.

But if I flash the stock image, I'll have to reinstall the apps, and such. Right?

Yes, unless you back them up. Otherwise, you will have to redownload and install. You will also lose anything you have stored locally unless you remove the -w from the flashall.bat script (which will prevent the wipe of the partitions).
just download the image from google and extract the system and boot images and flash them in fastboot
I'm currently running 6.0.3 paranoid version. And I did obviously have root before installing this ROM. I have tried looking in the developer options to see if it wasn't turned on, but the option isn't available anymore. I'm not sure what information i need to supply. Will I need to root again?
Thanks for reading,
Evitov.
The ROM doesn't ship with root. It isn't needed for the ROM to work.
If you want to root it, just flash SuperSU zip in recovery.

You should go ask in your device forum. I've never heard of recovery being removed after flashing a ROM

Okay thanks for your help anyway, i'll try that then.
@Evitov
There may be two reasons for losing recovery:
1.You had dual recovery for stock locked bootloader.
2.You had kernel with built in recovery.
And to get recovery:
Just download twrp for z2
And flash through flashtool.
Thats it

Did you have the latest marshmallow stock build(.291) before this? If so , then connect to computer in fastboot mode, download twrp image for your phone, copy to fastboot folder and type,
Code:
fastboot flash recovery (the twrp image name).img
To get into recovery, hold power and vol down buttons together until sony logo.
I cannot be sure if this will work with your device bc i have a z3 compact
but still, try!

I again try to restart but again automatically i log into recovery mode. what should I do to install new update.
Thanks in advance.

I think since you are rooted and you tried installing the OTA, the boot.img is replaced by the original one, that breaks the phone if flashed on root. so you can try 2 things:
1. Try flashing the EX kernel again. Flash the Uninstaller 1st and then flash it again and then normal boot from TWRP.. if it loops to TWRP, use point 2 procedure.. if it works...
2. If you are being re-directed to the TWRP. press and hold power + Vol down to go to bootloader and then use normal mode.
Personally, I would flash EX kernel again and then boot...
Hope it helps!
If Nothing helps..Make a Nandroid backup, Boot to bootloader by Power+Vol down. and then flash stock from PC..
u can restore the nandroid backup by Titanium Pro..

Try the steps that abhi212b suggested (this was for users that had TWRP installed and took the March OTA when it was available).
As an aside, OTA updates will only install properly on the stock recovery with a stock system and kernel. Thus you'll have to remove root, flash a stock kernel and stock recovery and then you should be able to install the OTA. If you have a custom logo.bin, you'll have to flash the stock logo.bin too.
Thanku so much.

Thank you so much buddy...
solved my problem:good:
I figured out how to update after flashing twrp. Maybe obvious to some but I've seen questions about it.
The zip in the "Convert CA to WW" thread has the stock rom in a zip file. Open it and inside is a recovery.img file in it, extract it to your adb folder on your PC.
Download the firmware update from ASUS official site and save to the root of your sd card or internal storage (it will recognize both.)
Reboot into fastboot on your device.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
When that finishes reboot and your phone should find the update and ask if you want to install. Do so. You may need to power cycle first.
When you're done you can reflash TWRP.
Once you have TWRP you can flash Magisk or SuperSU as you see fit.
It's painless.
An old post from you, but thank you. This was really easy. I've spent 2 days trying to figure out how to upgrade without restore stock rom, boot etc. and lose all data. I was about to give up when I saw this post, I didn't expect it to work - to easy. But I could give it a try.
This was painless.
Then it took me 3 hours to figure out how to reinstall twrp again, it wasn't just to flash and reboot I had to boot directly into recovery after flash. But that is another story.
Thanks, you just saved me some time!

You need to upgrade to latest N - ...14.2020.1712.85, once you do that you should get Oreo as FOTA after reboot

Thanks, man.
Can I manually update with the recovery by downloading the rom?
I think, the FOTA won't arrive as I've rooted my phone.

When you flash stock recovery and update you unroot, so you will get FOTA. Just update to Oreo and then flash twrp and Magisk (or whatever you use) again.
I am rooted and updated to Oreo then chose updates involving battery improvement and/or system stability (downloaded to external sd), after installed the last update I flashed twrp and rooted again.
You need to flash stock recovery before update. The phone will find the updated with custom recovery but update will fail.
The site I downloaded stock recovery from is down so you have to search for it, or download RAW stock rom and extract the recovery from it

Thanks! I ended up having to use the 11.41.87.2 recovery in order to flash a Nougat update - it wouldn't work with the older recoveries.
