Root signed_clockwork_to_Stock_Recovery.zip

I just flashed the stock recovery on to my phone, and followed the steps to check and see if it flashed properly upon reboot. It apparently did, as the android with the exclamation point showed up for a brief second.

However, when I further attempt to reboot the phone in to recovery mode, the same "!" screen shows up for a split second before starting up again. Is that supposed to happen, or am I supposed to get a recovery menu?

That means that stock recovery was successful. The stock recovery doesn't care if you're holding buttons down, it just goes on about booting.....

Oh, cool. I haven't gotten that system update notification in a few days - figures, once I finally got the stock recovery installed, my primary reason for flashing it goes away.

I'm experimenting with Velocity v1.1 right now - if it gives me any trouble, I will be reverting back to the stock nandroid that I made earlier this morning, and will be flashing over the stock recovery as well.

I am running velocity 1.1 right now. First thing you will want to do is go to the velocity toolkit, then terminal emulator, after it starts type in velocity and hit enter - that way it will update the scripts which are at v38. If not after typing in velocity I think it's option 4 for scripts then 1 for update. This way you won't keep getting that OTA notice about updating to 2.2.2

Nice! Just did that now. Thanks for that.

EDIT: I didn't check this at all until just now, after I updated the scripts to v38, but I guess I'm running 2.2.2 now! Before I flashed Velocity, I was concerned about getting my stock recovery back so I could get the OTA for that particular update. Now I evidently have it AND Velocity.

That's just the build.prop edit that the Velocity script uses to stop it from notifying you about the 2.2.2 OTA update from Verizon :)
