[Q] Rooted, Rom manager recovery and now lost

I have a mytouch 3g, 32B. I rooted with superoneclick, went fine. Downloaded rom manager and did a recovery, the latest version. Download a rom through Rom Manager, goes to recovery page, click update and then nothing happens. I have been reading for 5 hours and cannot get this. Please help
I should clarify. It will not go into Clockwork mod recovery.
Did you try manually? Turn phone off, then turn on by pressing Home + Power.
P.s. you can try flash_image method too

I have tried to manually as well. Shouldn't it be as easy as download a Rom, name it update.zip and apply update at the recovery page? When I do that i get "failed to verify whole-file signature" "signature verifiication failed Installation aborted"
This is a Cyanogenmod ROM downloaded through ROMmanager.
Confusing a little...
Test custom recovery: turn phone off then turn on by pressing Home + Power
If you will see triangle with '!' - you have stock recovery
With stock recovery you can not flash any custom ROMs.
If you have stock recovery then RomManager did something wrong
But you can flash manually (as i posted before)

[Q] Flashing TWRP over RA recovery

As the title says, GooMananger appears to download and notifies "recovery successfully installed!" but on reboot recovery, its still RA-Iconia-3.17. I've done the same process more than 5 times with the same result.
I have tried to install the image via fastboot, but on reboot, again, its RA recovery.
Can anyone lend a hand?

Can somebody help?

If you do not need to keep your data, just grab the factory image here and extract and run the bat file.
If you can get to the stock recovery and still want to sideload the OTA, once you are the dead droid recovery, press Volume up and power at the same time and then select the "Apply Update from adb" and follow the instructions from the orange text that will appear at the bottom of the screen.
Be sure you have adb installed on your pc and that you can fastboot to your device.
Good luck.

SuperSU won't update binary

So I rooted my Nexus Player running Marshmallow (6.0) using the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/wip-android-6-0-marshmellow-t3219344
My bootloader is unlocked, I flashed the boot.img from the first post in the above thread, (already flashed TWRP), then booted into recovery and flashed SuperSU 2.56 from the 2nd post. When I launch SuperSU it tells me that the SU binary needs to be updated, but it can't do it the "normal" way so I try to do it via the TWRP way, it says it's going to attempt to boot into recovery, but recovery never comes up, it looks like it's rebooting, and just hangs on a black screen. So I tried doing "adb reboot recovery" when SuperSU says it's going to try to reboot into recovery itself and do that before clicking ok, but I get the same results. If I go into recovery via the hardware button, no updating happens. It just loads recovery. If I load up the Nexus Player like normal boot, and connected to my PC do "adb reboot recovery" it loads the recovery fine without hanging on any black screen.
So I'm at a loss here on what to do. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Tried Installing CynagenMod 13, Stuck In a weird Recovery Bootloop

Hello Guys,
So i managed to fix my previous error. Now I'm at the end almost. I'm installing CynagenMod 13 on my N9005. I installed ClockworkMod Recovery, I think. I say I think because when i try to boot into it I get the below message.
"Recovery Booting"
"Set Recovery Bit : recovery"
Then it goes black and vibrates twice and boots normally.
I have the CynagenMod in a zip on my SD and the guide i am following refers to the ClockworkMod Recovery menu. The normal Recovery menu loads fine, ClockworkMod Recovery doesn't seem to load. Can i use the normal Recovery or does anyone know a way of getting ClockworkMod Recovery to work?
Root is not required to flash a custom rom or recovery.
Try flashing twrp and then flashing a rom from twrp.
