So I rooted, unlocked and installed CWM recovery touch (latest version) with Nexus 7 Toolkit. I also renamed manually recovery files with root manager.
CWM recovery worked only the first 2 times after I installed it. Now if I try to shutdown my N7, I press UP+DOWN+VOL and I select Recovery Mode, it stucks on Google logo! So I must press power button for some second to force reboot and returning to JB os.
Why CWM recovery doesn't work now? How can I solve this issue?
EDIT: I installed rom manager and selected "Reboot in Recovery" (second option) and I loaded CWM recovery. But why can't I load recovery directly from boot?
You have to be connected with usb cable to load recovery from the bootloader

Why? I always installed cwm in hundred devices and no one of them required USB cable to boot into recovery

Mouse, you have received incomplete information. I have Rom Manager 5.0.2.0 installed with the 6.0.1.0 Recovery. If I go to Rom Manager and re-flash the Recovery, then choose Reboot into Recovery, I reboot into Clockwork Recovery. Try it yourself. You just have to reflash the recovery before choosing to reboot into recovery.
You can also reboot into recovery from within a terminal shell or by adb, that's not a problem. The problem is the boot loader which boots into recovery only when usb is connected with a PC.

There is no need to re flash every time
You only have to have usb in when selecting recovery from the bootloader.
Selecting reboot recovery within android will load it fine

Yes it's true! I flashed recovery only once with toolkit but if I would load it I have to plug an USB cable or reboot in recovery with apps such as root manager or quick boot. This issue is also reported in nexus 7 toolkit FAQ

Hi,
It has nothing to do with toolkit or whatever, it is a bug I had often, if would wipe the system, it would let me again

There is an app called quick boot that can reboot to cwm if that makes things easier, in the play store its a blue icon with a lightning bolt through it

i have the same problem, when i try to launch recovery from bootloader it doesn't load, but i don't understand what you mean with being plugged with usb, i should get into bootloader and then plug the cable to windows, or should i plug it with the toolkit open or something like that, basically, what is the procedure to make it work at least in this way?

I followed the guides and unlocked & rooted my Nexus 7 tablet. It took a while, but I got it to work eventually. I'm rooted now, and I flashed CWM Recovery 6 (regular) and did a Nandroid backup. When I restarted from CWM, it asked me if I wanted to fix the tablet so that it wouldn't re-flash the stock recovery on reboot, and I said "yes" so I could keep CWM Recovery. However, the next time I rebooted and tried to go to Recovery, the tablet just hung at the Google boot logo with the unlocked padlock icon and wouldn't go into Recovery. I've reflashed CWM from the Rom Manager app, but I cannot get it to work. Any solutions?
Connect a USB cord to your computer. The custom ROM reboot to recovery function works but manually going to boot loader then recovery requires a USB cable connected to a computer on the other end.

Okay, so when I try to boot into CWM, I get stuck on the "Google" screen... Any ideas as to why it won't boot? I used the Nexus Toolkit to install the recovery. Also, I reflashed the recovery via the Nexus Toolkit, and it it boots, but after I reboot into Android, turn off, and Fastboot, it won't reboot into recovery.. It's getting a little irritating to not be able to get into recovery
Yes , it happens to my device as well. I installed quick boot and use it to put the n7 to recovery. I. Guess this is an easy workaround.

How do I fix this
If u can't get into recovery u could flash the nexus 7 stock image

when in the boot loader, plug in via USB then press recovery.

Thanks all for help sorted it out.
Re flashed the custom recovery using adb fastboot (Google Nexus 7 Toolkit) all fine now but strange that recovery failed.
After editing a xml file
Its a bug with the 7’s bootloader. You can't get into recovery directly from the bootloader without having the USB plugged into a computer or you can just select reboot into recovery from the power menu on PA or any CM based rom. There are a couple of apps that allow you to reboot into recovery as well like rom manager and rom toolbox... The modified XML file had nothing to do with it.
Hello everyone,
I just installed TWRP via goomanager and when i use "reboot recovery" in goo manager menu: TWRP works fine.
But when i use ROM toolbox lite for reboot into bootloader then i chose simply "Start" or "Recovery mode" i'm also stuck at google logo...
I don't understand one thing, we only can enter into bootloader mode with an android app, we can't do that when we power on the tablet for the first time?
Sorry for my approximate english.
Yes that is correct. Its a bug with the boot loader. You can plug the 7 into a computer USB and it will let you into recovery from the boot loader. This WILL NOT work with a charger though... I know it sucks. Hopefully Google will fix it in future updates.

Hard Reset Nexus 7 Working
For all those who have problem getting to recovery mode after connecting the USB cable to computer, follow the "Configure Drives" step from this link.

Its worth reinstalling the drivers if its already installed.
A bit of a dilemma with my N7 from the bootloader I cannot load recovery.
When I select recovery it just displays the Google Logo
However when im in android and select boot recovery it boots straight into Clockworkmod. Strange.
I have tried flashing Clockworkmod a number of times and its still the same

you need to be plugged in via the usb(not wall charger) to be able to boot into recovery via the bootloader. its a bootloader bug. this info has been repeated over and over and over..
Yeah put a custom ROM with the reboot to recovery option and that'll fix it since you need the combo

Hello to everyone,
I'm experiencing a problem during the installation of a custom recovery (CM in my case) on my Galaxy S4 (I9505).
I do the procedure with odin, flashing the tar files and it goes till the end with showing the "PASS" message at the end.
I reboot my device but there's still the original recovery! No CW installed
Anyone can help?
If you need more info of the device just ask.
untick auto reboot.
Realistically, you shouldn't be using Clockworkmod as it is no longer being updated. You should be using TWRP instead. With that said, be sure you're using the original cable and are not plugged in through a hub. Also, do not attempt to enter download mode from a reboot. Shut the S4 off first, then enter download mode, as entering download mode from a reboot tends to not function correctly.
Done with TWRP. Thanks to everyone
