Need help with CWM

Hi I just flashed CWM on my Indian Idea Blade using Rom Manager. It flashed successfully but when i boot into recovery it shows just 4 options - reboot, install update.zip, wipe data & wipe cache.
Where are the other options ?
Rom manager says the recovery version is 5.0.2.0 which i believe is the latest one.
Anyone has a clue why the options are missing ?

The recovery you see is the stock one. Download recovery manager app from modaco after rooting and install the recovery after updating the app.

Sorry, it's just that some tutorials are not complete at all.
To my understanding is that the device will recover the original recovery every reboot

I'm pretty sure TWRP has an option to keep it. I'm using cwm and I can reboot fine. Its when flashing new firmware it will replace your custom recovery. CWM asks if you would like to disable recovery flash and selecting Yes let's you keep your custom recovery!

the missing line in the script from your post was this
fastboot.exe boot cwm.img
edit: i haven't tried twrp yet
edit2: works for twrp too but don't need that line if coming from custom recovery already

CWM (latest) won't restore my device to factory settings!

Hello,
I can't restore my device to factory settings through recovery mode, I am stuck in "Formatting /cache"
I feel as if my device is worthless now...
please help me

Betting after waiting 10 minutes that it finished the format and is now working perfectly ?

Is there a recovery that actually works properly

Hi,
I've had this tablet for a while and recently decided to install a custom rom. I've been rooted for a while, but left it mostly stock. My problem is that I can't find a custom recovery that works as advertised. Philz seems to have problems formatting the cache and TWRP doesn't seem to work properly either (people keep posting that 2.6.3.3 works, but that version isn't available for download on the TWRP site). Not only do they all seem to have problems wiping the cache and whatnot, but once I install them I can longer boot into recovery mode using the hardware button.
Is there a recovery that actually works properly? Where I can properly wipe the device to install a new ROM and where I can boot into recovery if something goes wrong?

Flashed 2.6.3.3 from that tread and it's works as expected, thanks.

Good to hear.
