What is CWM?

ClockworkMod, abbreviated as CWM, is a very famous custom recovery for all the Android phones and also tablets.It is developed by Koushik Dutta (Koush), a well reknown name in the Android dev community. ClockworkMod recovery helps you to perform many advanced recovery, restoration, installation and a good maintenance operations on the Android device that are not possible with stock recovery, and it is one of the most easy ways used to gain root access, back up device data, install custom ROMs, kernels & mods, and more. However, for anyone new to Android customization and hacking, some of its options might be proved to be a highly confusing ones.

Everything should work.

fastboot boot recovery.img does work, flashing it through fastboot does not do anything for me.

Edit: when booted with fastboot boot, flashing supersu was no issue whatsoever, my device is happily rooted now.

What happens when you flash it? Any messages on screen? What happens, when you select recovery in bootloader? Are you sure you are selecting with VolUp? Power is not the "enter" key!

Yeah Vol. UP e select when on bootloader, learn it the "hard" way, lol

That might be the issue - power has been the enter key on any other android device I have used :). I will report back.

Lo and behold, boot to recovery from QuickReboot does work with CWM, so it was the power key thing (probably simply turned the damn thing off).

I can confirm that restoring from backup works like a charm.

Great job buddy ! Now lemme ask... rather beg you something, it's about CWM font size, please make it bigger, please!
I got this birth eyesight disease which usually isn't that much of a big deal but in this particular case the words are so small that i can barely read them! Please make it bigger or teach me how to do it myself!

I will have a look at how CWM manages fonts and increase font size when I find it :)

    There is a fix for 4.4 bootloaders, expect an updated build within the next two days :)

    //EDIT: Shame on me, shouldn't have promised without intense testing and post stuff when tired. We'll have to stay at 4.3 bootloaders for now.

    But I also think that a1Pha has stopped developing his own project. No one knows why? We are thankful for the great work. But life goes on.

    Excuse my asking, but are you completely insane? It's been three days since my last post. I didn't throw my phone into a river or so - I will need a working CWM in future, too. So yes, I will continue working on it. But I also have my job, my girlfriend, a family and so on. And I moved to a new city 4 weeks ago.
    The sources for Moto G are open, feel free to contribute.

    You have the patience of a gnat, honestly!! No offence.....:)

    Thank you.
