Can't boot into Clockwork Recovery

Hi guys,
So just received my Nexus 7, the device is rooted and i'm trying to flash clockworkmod to the device.
So far, i've tried both of the toolkits in the developement section, ROM Manager and also flashing the recovery through ADB with the images in the development section too...
With some of them, after selecting recovery from the bootloader, it just stays on the "Google" logo, on other, it just boots up.
The device has no issue's booting, it's just Clockwork that won't boot.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.

Have you rebooted into recovery after flashing and made it perminent? Otherwise the stock recovery will get flashed back (immediately)..

Usually I temp boot CWM, but today I flashed it on both my GNex & Nexus7. Can easily go back to stock recovery if required...

Thanks for the link mate, hadn't seen that one before and indeed, CWM is now working.
Much appreciated.

No problem. When you exit CWM it tries to fix it anyway. Not sure if it just moves the file or what, but the key is to boot into CWM straight after flashing it (I made the same mistake this morning)..

I'm having the exact same issue...so If I re flash the Recovery as Markey Said will I lose the contents of my Internal memory or not?

hope this helps

if your using cwm i found to boot into recovery you have to have the 7 plugged into your computer with the micro usb..i dont know why but it worked for me..are you using the side bottons to get into recovery..if so plugged the cable in first then try to enter recovery

Easiest way is grab quick boot from the play store and it will let u reboot to cwm.. As above said a pc is needed because of a bug.. U can also do it connected to a phone if u have otg cable

I already Know that
but I'm asking about the button combo approach because, it is very important ; in case you brick your device and you can't boot it and obviously you cant lauche rom manger

You can access CWM through the power, up, down method and choosing recovery mode.... the tablet MUST be plugged in though... at least for me it does. Running CWM6 Touch....

you cant "reset" to factory image via your recovery, that is done vua the bootloader and fastboot. you can push a good rom to your phone via your recovery and adb push, then flash it.

you should try viper4android, free at the play store. root is needed. it installs its own sound driver, and has controls to set it up. ever since installing it, my n4 has never sounded better.

Is it detected in fastboot mode? You flash a stock image using fastboot...
And you have to be in recovery for adb to work, your phone won't be detected on Google logo :?

So I just flashed this ROM in TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2533018
And when I rebooted all I get is the LG logo followed by a black screen with the following:

When I plug it into my computer it never gets recognized. It appears to be stuck in a bootloop.

Get it back in recovery mode and turn it off using twrp

Found a fix
soooo i was having the same security error u guys... I have the vs980 btw...so i went into recovery (twrp 2.7) and flashed a stock rom... it boots up now....but when i try to install a custom rom again DENIED back to security error so i'm not sure whats up with that i will let u guys know when i figure out how to get that figured out

[SOLVED] Stuck at boot logo on reboot

Ever since CM10.2 came out I've not been able to get it to work. Everytime I flashed the rom it would work on the first boot, then after a reboot it would hang at the boot logo. CM11 did exactly the same thing. No amount of wiping this or flashing that fixed the problem. I've seen many other people with the same symptoms posting on this forum and others and most of them use the same solution I did: revert to CM10.1 or similar.
Today I solved my problem. The solution that worked for me was to use the TWRP 2.6.3.0 from Dhacker29 (twrp263_xt907.img), flash that to recovery then install the zips from there. I can't post a link because of forum restrictions but put androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/msm8960/ infront of that file name and you'll be there.
It sounds really simple and I've seen people say "just use TWRP 2.6.3.0 and it will work", but not all TWRP 2.6.3.0 images are the same apparently. I was using TWRP 2.6.3.0 before and it never worked. I tried downloading it from multiple sources and it still didn't work. Dhacker29's version is slightly different and worked perfectly. I don't know why my phone was picky about it and most other people don't have a problem, but I know I'm not the only one and I just wanted to share the solution.

Here is Dhackers flashable. I did not know there was a difference but the md5 is different from my regular one : e33eac18b87c826155f383169b3a17a4
For the recovery.img inside. twrp263_xt907.img.
My other twrp 263, not sure of the source, but I think mattlgroff :
Md5 : 791c142be27a541ea36b9fc97c684a50
The 791' is the one I suspect of bad behaviour.

I am not rooted or anything
So my problem is when I turn on the device it will just hang up on the animated boot of the red eye. I can enter the stock recovery without any problems and can get to fastboot. The fastboot screen says its locked. So I have tried rsdlite and VRZ_XT907_9.8.1Q-94-1_CFC.img to flash the stock rom on it. rsdlite says that it finished but the phone just remains on the red eye boot animation. can anyone give me some help.
thanks in advance.
again not rooted or custom mod, can fully boot, fastboot locked.

You should wipe data before you restore.
For now boot recovery, push both vol keys for 3 sec @ the dead robot, wipe data.

Ok just did this and it is still stuck at the red eye. The screen isnt frozen it is sparking and stuff but it won't leave this and finish booting. Help!

2nd they both passed md5. then I put the vrz_xt907_9.8.1q-94_cfc.xml.zip through rsd and it failed. So I ran the other one, vrz_xt907_9.8.1q-78-1_1ff.orig.xml.zip, and rsd completed. But it still gets hung up on reboot and wont go pass the red eye. even after waiting 5min for it to boot. rsd is now telling me to manually reboot the device. So I did and waited another 5mins and still stuck at red eye. what is the other file that rsd failed on for. And what am I doing wrong here.

Xml is the fxz, restore .zip.
That zip needs to be extracted to a "work" folder. Install the latest moto drivers from the moto site. On a mac use parallels desktop.
Run rsd lite 615 & choose the .xml file from the rsd ... button.
Use the latest fxz/xml.zip - ...94 which will lock your boot if you come from ...66 or earlier if you are not unlocked beforehand!
If on ...78 or earlier remove the getvar line from the xml commands.

CSE would probably be the way to go. Try doing a normal bootup and connect your phone to your Pc. See if the pc will recognize it and then try to backup your data.
If that fails and the data is important, I would try the Normal method and hope that it will be successful. If not then CSE.

NP. And after normal flash, even if it fails to boot, again try to see if the computer will recognize it to retrieve your data before you must use the CSE method
