We have confirmation that the Bootstrap custom recovery app is working for the Motorola Photon 4G Android phone. The Photon 4G was only recently rooted, and thanks to efforts of developers over at XDA, especially those who worked on making Bootstrap working on the Droid X2, the Photon 4G has successfully managed to run the ClockworkMod custom recovery without any issues at all. The APK – as are all the bootstrap recoveries built into – is a direct pull from the Droid X2 and according to bane449 who put his device up for testing, and according to the feedback on the forums, this seems to work as it should.

The Xperia Neo has been unlocked and rooted for quite a while now, yet a custom recovery was nowhere to be seen. A rooted Android device without a custom recovery is almost handicapped. Lucky for Xperia Neo owners, XDA-Developers forum member Bin4ry has recently managed to run a custom recovery based on ClockworkMod recovery and named FreeXperia ClockworkMod Recovery on the Xperia Neo. This should see a boost in custom ROMs and mods based on flashable zip packages.

LG Optimus Black, the thinnest Smartphone so far, hasn’t been able to draw much developer attention due to it’s availability in certain geographic locations. However the developers who already own this Android phone, are already in the process of cooking delicious ROMs after Root and ClockworkMod Recovery made their way to this handset. The first custom ROM for LG Optimus Black is now available and is called Nova Version 1. We really don’t know the logic behind this name, but as far as you flash this one to get rid of the crappy LG firmware onboard, it seriously doesn’t matter. The ROM comes from senior XDA member Noejn and according to him, the ROM is in a beta stage, but is pretty much stable with major functions and features working without major flaws and glitches. The ROM comes with a experimental kernel, which gives you EXT4 Support along with SLQB and tweaks like MinMax governor plus TinyRCU. Read More
