    Sup!! I recently went back to the stock rom cuz I wanted to rock the ICS look for a while and I'm using Moddedunsecure kernel. Anyways for some reason when I choose reboot system in touch recovery(6.0.3.3) it takes me to a menu that says "rom may flash stock recovery on boot THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE" then i have the options of - no, - yes disable recovery flash, and - go back. No matter which one I choose (including - go back) my phone reboots. I'm just curious as to why it's doing that any. info would be appreciated :)

    Strange... Don't know why that's happening, but you can try flashing touch recovery again and see if that helps.

    I'm also getting that message even after reflashing touch recovery, I can't recall when it started doing it, but sometimes after I flashed samurai ROM.

    Yeah i think ill go ahead and give that a try. Another weird thing i noticed when i went back to stock rom is my root apps aren't asking for superuser permission. They work and everything but superuser isn't. The log is just blank lol i switched to supersu and it works just fine. !

    Did you restore a backup of stock rom or did you flash the stock rom that is posted around here somewhere?

    No luck with reflashing the recovery. Still getting the message. I saw a thread on xda about it and they said to choose yes but it's not working xD

    If you just press the back key till it reboots, it works as it should.
    you do not need to make a selection when cwm offers it.

    some stock roms run a init script to prevent tampering. so when you boot it will install the stock recovery again


    just remove /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and you can keep your custom recovery. you will have to fastboot flash it again though since you booted the device to delete the script.
