Default [Solved] System Recovery Disappears After Reboot

I recently received a new phone (sent the other one back because it wouldn't boot/charge anymore). Anyways, I am not sure if this is something that was occurring on my previous phone or not, but if I install MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.apk (which is a package I have had forever... maybe there is a newer version or something?) everything works fine until I reboot. I can get into recovery and create/restore a backup, install .zip files, etc. However, after I reboot the phone the icon for System Recovery is no longer in my app drawer. I can re-run the .apk from my external SD card and everything works fine again... until I reboot. Anyone seen this?

BTW Stock 2.3.5 1.3.418

I had that happen before, my solution was move it to system apps, worked at the time
I've SBFed since, and it's working fine
ROOT] Framaroot, a one-click application to root
I have verified it works with these Motorola devices running android 2.3.4
Droid 2 (a955), Droid 2 Global (a956), R2D2 (a957), & Droid X (MB810)
video Super Easy Droid X, Droid 2 Rooting app


Always in motion is the future

I guess I didn't clarify... I am not running it from my external sd card. That is where I have the installer... I have to reinstall it after every reboot.

That fixed it... though I don't know what changed. I remember before just hitting the .apk on my external sd card, it installed, and I was fat and happy after that... go figure.

Thanks!
