What's the use of roms now if recovery is flaky?

I know they are two different things that one relies on the other to work. I understand that rom devs are usually different people than those working on the recovery program.

You gotta start somewhere...

2.5.x.x recovery in the root thread works enough that you can flash roms with no issues.

I don't know if there's a new version of recovery yet. What I meant by flakiness was the issue that some were having, including me, that the phone would always boot into recovery if it was off and you were trying to charge it.

That's a known issue with ALL clockwork recoveries and there probably will NEVER be a fix.

This may be the case but since the evo and epic used cwm recovery, the shift is the first phone I've experienced this snafu with. Maybe I was just lucky in the past. And yeah, I'm impatient for it to be fixed. I gotta chill out.
