[Q] Confused: stock/custom recovery & bootloader mode - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, it seems I'm a little confused:
1-boot loader mode is for flashing SBFs via RSDLite
2-custom recovery is for flashing custom ROMs /updates/saving&restoring backups, ecc
3-what's stock recovery for?
tnx, bye

Is for performing /data or /cache wipes, generally safer than custom recovery's and accessible with any ROM, and after flashing SBF

tnx

Flashing Custom kernel

Good day guys, i just want to know if there's custom kernel w/ custom recovery like TWRP, philz or CWM? i'm planning to flash it. i manage to unlocked bootloader without affecting the camera but every time i trying to flash custom recovery it's always say failed, secure, unsigned ect..
i don't want to use the other method which is camera end up not working. so i'm planning to flash custom kernel with recovery? anyone can tell which custom kernel has it? thanks in advance
If i remember correctly, there isn't any custom kernel with recovery. Zenfone 5 uses seperate boot (kernel) partition & recovery partition.

use an adb to turn off your phone then flash the stock rom
you have three choices:
> flash any custom rom via twrp
> flash stock recovery, boot.img then flash firmware via sd card from stock recovery
> use asus flash tool to flash raw firmware (simplest way)

Format the data partition after flashing the custom ROM.
I think you wipe all partitions before installing custom rom right? You should not wipe system and vendor partitions after unlocking bootloader and installing recovery
