ClockworkMod Recovery

First, let's take a look at why anyone would apply a custom recovery. The typical Android recovery are capable of doing two things for the user -- flash system files which could be signed and verified as coming out of an appropriate source (either Google or maybe an OEM), and get rid of user data and cached information. Both these operations are pretty important, but there's more many users want and need that came from the recovery mode within their phone. Things like encouragement all user data into image files that may be restored easily, or flashing software that doesn't come from Google and the OEM -- like custom ROMs -- and wiping some residual data to troubleshoot items like file permission errors. It's pretty advanced stuff, but it's very handy to acquire it for a number of of us.


ClockworkMod recovery (we'll think of it as CWM any further) does this all, and does it very well. It's provided free, and also has a fairly handy wrapper around it so it work extremely well even though the phone or tablet comes to an end and running. We're talking about Rom Manager, without a doubt. With CWM you could erase the owner data from your system completely -- including that additional data that may possibly cause a difficulty, selectively erase portions of your new toy (a godsend for troubleshooting), build a restore image the running system, and flash custom firmware at will. If you happen to be powered by custom element of Android from any newer phone or tablet, you are more than likely utilizing it at once. If you happen to be considering trying your luck with a custom ROM or tweak, CWM is where you'll get started.
