    Question Open recovery vanishes on phone reboot

    Hi everyone,

    I've managed to install Open Recovery v1.46, but Open Recovery keeps vanishing after each reboot and the standard Android System recovery <2e> takes its place... Then I again apply:update.zip and Open Recovery is back. And then, on a normal reboot to android and then a 2nd reboot to recovery mode brings the android system recovery <2e> back and OR is gone.

    On the other hand if after Open recovery Installation, I never boot the phone normally but keep going into recovery mode, I always go into Open Recovery. This suggests that something is getting replaced when the phone boots up normally

    How do I ensure Open Recovery sticks ?

    When it boots back into Android System Recovery <2e>
    It says at the bottom :

    E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command

    (Thanks for all the support in this forum. Great work everyone)

    The OpenRecovery "autoswitch from normal boot" requires some firmware modification. The "vanilla" OR doesn't install this automatically due to different handling of each ROM made for the Milestone.

    Thanks Semseddin for the signature and avatar.
