Once you download and install ROM Manager, you need to go into it and install Clockworkmod. Then use the ROM Manager to boot into recovery.
Still doesn't work...could it be the ROM or could it be the actual root itself

Hmmm.....Try downloading/installing Droid 2 Bootstrap. Then try to go to recovery from there.
If that doesn't work then something went wrong when you rooted.
Hey guys I have been trying to install a rom using clockworkmod recovery but when I install from sd card it runs the process them says installation aborted every time.
Locked bootloader
Clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.7

Maybe the Rom you install is not for Locked bootloader
It's my understanding that the roms that you use with a locked bootloader aren't flashable, but are to be used as a nandroid backup. In other words, the roms that you must flash are just for those with unlocked bootloaders.
I'm trying to install cola rom which is meant for locked bootloader

You seem to be trying to flash the zip of Cola, instead of unpacking it, and moving to /mnt/sdcard/ClockwordMod/backup/
What I am trying to do is to restore rather than flash but I do not have rom manager premium
I'm using rom toolbox

You don't need to use rom manager or rom toolbox. After you unpacked the zip file, place it in /clockworkmod/backup and if it doesn't exist, make it! After having the folder in the backup folder, get into your clockworkmod recovery and use the backup and restore menu there to restore.

Was just about to post the same thing.
Anyway, if you are having trouble booting into recovery, open a terminal, and type in adb shell reboot recovery and your device will reboot into the recovery console.
Thanks for the advice guys ill see what happens

Never mind already got it and its 100% working =]
I've actually never had the reboot recovery command work, even from the terminal on the phone.
Anyway, I'm here to correct that last command. You will either use
adb shell
reboot recovery
or
adb reboot recovery
Although an access denied error would mean that you need superuser privileges to correctly run the command. I don't remember if it's needed to reboot to recovery, it's just instinct for me to hit su when I use terminal or adb.
Problem is my computer crashed so I can't unpack cola6, meaning I can't place the folder in clockworkmod/backup

If you have it on your phone you can unpack it using ROM Toolbox.

Whenever I flash a kernel or mod & click fix permissions in cwr recovery everythin seems like its workin but when I reboot the phone I get constant boot loops..if I try to restore a backup & fix permissions afterwards the phone would stay stuck on the "android upgrading" screen.. I flashed the recovery again but the issue persist.. I can't no longer use the "fix permissions" option cuz I get constant boot loops afterwards smh

use twrp recovery, or fix_permissions manually via terminal emulator.
I successfully rooted and unlocked the bootloader on my WiFi only nexus 7. Running 4.2.2. Downloaded Rom manager and while trying to create a recovery I get an error that says "error while downloading from server. Please make sure you have a stable internet connection, and that your SD card is inserted and has free space.
Also I tried using recovery manager and it won't download the recovery file. Also when I try to boot in recovery mode I get the android with the red triangle. I renamed the boot to recovery file also. Any help would be great!
That is why I prefer to do things manually instead of using ROM Manager, GooManager, Recovery Manager, Nandroid Manager, etc.
I got it to work by using recovery tools. Now I have flashed paranoid android. It didn't flash the Google market app. How do I add that now?

Okay so I pushed the app and flashed it with the nexus toolkit. Thanks

So I've been trying to flash team blackout's Google plus black zip. I've tried using clockworkmod recovery and it says that it can't lokify the zip then it fails to install. I've also tried using flashify and it says that it flashed and installed the app but when the phone restarts the app is not installed... Ideas?
Update: Even though it was installed the app was previously disabled and I had to re-enable the app.
Mod close this up please
