Why would you want to go back to stock recovery in the first place?

I prefer cwm touch which you can get from the site. Or you can flash the button version from rommanager
Twrp does work tho, but I've read issues with restoring backups.
Booting into recovery on the device in a way is messed up. The button combo method to enter using the bootloader hangs when not connected to a PC, so there are two options on getting into recovery.
A. Connect to a PC and use bootloader
B. With a working OS, reboot to recovery using an app such as rommanager or goomanager
If you ever flash a rom that won't boot, u need to connect to a PC and boot into recovery via bootloader (button combo).

I use TWRP and had successfully restored now a couple of times. Once was a complete device replacement where I restored the TWRP restore files from my workstation.
How I do my backups to ensure I can restore from a total loss.

Ah, I was curious if this bug still existed or not.
I'd go with CWM, quite stable, easy to use, and you can flash the touch recovery, speeds it up.

Thanks, I read somewhere that if you go into system/ and rename recovery-from-boot.p to recovery-from-boot.bak, fixes the bootloop...can anyone confirm this... thank in advance

Try it. Bootloader issue still exists regardless.

I'm a TWRP guy all the way. I have never had an issue restoring a backup, and the ability to compress my nandroid is invaluable.

TWRP has definitely converted me.

how to return to stock rom?

Is there a zip file i can flash to return to stock rom? similar to flashing custom rom.
i would like to avoid using the nexus toolkit's restore factory image feature as it would wipe my device and its internal memory as well.
is this possible?
As far as I know, you can only return to the stock ROM by flashing the stock image.
Yeah, the downside is that you loose all your data. Could you do a nandroid backup and then just restore the apps? Or even titanium backup. That would fix your problems
Or use the toolkit to back up your apks n data

Remove CWM for TWRP?

What's the best method for removing clockwork recovery for twrp? I've heard twrp is better than the outdated clockwork recovery. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You don't remove the old recovery, you just flash a new recovery image. Do it via fastboot, or using the Goo Manager app (in the case of TWRP).
yes TWRP is definitely user friendly never looked back. Just flash it over that .img file.
Easiest way to do it download goo manager from playstore and apply it from there.
Just do it! You won't regret it.

Because I don't know what app it is I have no idea what it did so what I would do is go to recovery and do the following command to every file you want:
adb pull /sdcard/Some_file.txt C://Users/Your_name/Desktop/Some_folder/Some_file.txt
If possible you can make a backup of the internal storage and restore when you reflash your rom or something if you have TWRP also moving the image file to your PC using ADB Pull.
After backing up you have to use this tool with your device on the bootloader menu: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamjwr66v
You can restore your files afterwards but if you originally used a custom rom then flash the custom rom.

[Q] Recovery lost?

Hello everyone! Think that I did something kinda stupid today..but not sure. I have installed cwm recovery (philz version, latest) but today I was transfering over a backup to my pc (I removed it from phone to pc), well that was what I thought..(the file was TWRP, since it was a twrp nandroid backup and I had twrp before cwm) so later, when I tried to go to recovery, I couldn't, I tried with FreeGee, but nothing happened...so does this mean that I have lost my recovery? I tried to put the files back on phone where they was but it doesn't seem like that have helped...
So any other methods to get into recovery mode? And have I lost it by deleting a twrp file containing a backup and a twrps. file on 2kb?
P.s when I look into the TWRP folder, I don't have the twrps file....is that the problem, and what is that file? Is it loki or something?
P.S 2: My phone is working fine..
Anyone?
If you're still rooted, you could install Goo Manager, which will allow you to install a recovery.

I do have root, and I am running cloudystock 1.2 (kitkat), but can I just install a recovery since I am on a stock kitkat rom? Think I have done it now.....
What ROM did you have when you first installed cwm?
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app
I had stock 4.2.2 rom when I first installed recovery, but I overwrited my twrp recovery and installed cwm (that too on stock 4.2.2 rom
Try installing Quick Boot (free in the Play Store.) It provides an easy way to boot into recovery. This should show whether CWM or TWRP are still on your phone.
