The stock recovery what you have got.
If you press the home button, you can see the menu.
If you want to install a custom recovery, you can use my ported CWM, which works. This recovery is based on bgcngm ZTE V970 recovery, using his mtktools.
CWM 6.0.1.2 for Lenovo A390
md5sum : 8ef0d0a92682a93fe147436d0ce20549
You can install it - considering that your phone is rooted - with the help of MobileUncleTools; Possible ways from A820 thread.
Ok.Thanks sir :thumbup:

Red triangle dead android still appears even with your cwm
Hello Cappa. I too have rooted my Lenovo A390 using framaroot. and installed ROM Manager. Initially, ROM manager complained there is no clockworkmod recovery for my device model. I then flashed your clockworkmod recovery using spflashtool. Successful and ROM Manager finally detcted my clockworkmod too as version 5.x.x.x.. But, then when i tried to backup my current ROM, phone reboots and tries to enter recovery mode. But, then the dead android killed by a red triangle still appears. Help me!!!! Somewhere i read that it is the stock recovery icon and the phone should still be able to enter recovery mode using volume up, down buttons. Is it true. Somewhere, I read that TWRP must be used instead, because LENOVO A390 does not have cutom recovery. What should I do next? Suggest. If TWRP should be installed, I would wish to remove CWM first. Is it possible to remove CWM, after it has been flashed?
Sorry for lots of questions.
Will be grateful for your help.
Regards

There can be many reasons for not having the CWM.
You mentioned that you could flash the CWM.
I have not used ROM manager for MTK platform - I don't know if it is compatible with it. I used Mobileuncletools instead: you can change recovery with this program (can be downloaded from PlayStore - free app)
Right after you change the recovery from stock to CWM, then you have to enter into it.
And then make a backup directly from CWM.
This is my suggestion.
Also, I would recommend that run the chinese application remover, right after entering the CWM.
The reason why I suggest it that the stock rom can contain patches, which rewrite all the modified recovery to stock.
can i flash twrp recovery with same scatter file to remove cwm
One more question. I found on several forums that TWRP recovery works for Lenovo A390 and can be flashed using SPFlashtool. Will flashing the TWRP recovery overwrite the CWM recovery, if I use the same scatter file. I guess the scatter file provides the start and end address for flashing into ROM.

Hello,
I visited TWRP site as well as CWM recovery site. Niether of them supports Lenovo_A390_ROW, not listed. I guess coz the brand is new to the market. ROM Manager too complains that the phone model is not supported and I should wait until an official recovery from CWM is available. However, I googled and got one CWM recovery by cappa for Lenovo_A390 but got the dead android triangle. Then, I googled and got a TWRP recovery for Lenovo_A390_Row and flashed this one too (some friends suggested flashing with same scatter file overwrite the previous CWM). But, I still get the dead andorid with triangle icon. What is wrong? I guess the recovery images that I am flashing are not correct. Do you have the correct TWRP recovery image for Lenovo_A390_ROW?
How can I use SPflashtool and make the downloaded cwm 6.012 a scatter file?

I downloaded SPflashtool and the CWM recovery image. It says I need a scatter file and it couldn't continue. How do I make that CWM recovery image a scatter file to flash and how do you flash that into the phone using SPflasher? Do I need ROM Manager for that?
Hello,
I followed this post to root and install TWRP recovery on my Sprint Samsung Note 3. The root procedures went well, showing rooted successfully.However, I installed TWRP recovery using GooManager, and also tried installig through Odin.
It shows that TWRP recovery is successfully installed, but I am not able to boot into recovery. The phone seems to try to boot into TWRP for ever.....
Later I read this post, which says that Do not try on Android 4.4.2 KitKat firmware!
IS my issue due to my rooting and installing TWRP are based on 4.4.2 (my phone is having new NC5 OTA update)? How shall I do?
Thank you very much for your helps!!!

You should be suing TWRP 2.7.0.1 and do not use goo manager.. Go to their site and click on the alternate download.. I do believe TWRP mentioned they disable the goo manage download because of issues.. Make sure you are also choosing the right phone.. I have choosing the wrong phone more than once.. Also when your done flashing in odin, and you reboot into recovery manually, make sure you wait until you see the line about recovery, before you release the 3 buttons, or you will just boot into your desktop.. Also you can use TWRP on KItKat firmware as many have done so..

Hi guys i cant install a custome recovery in my samsung galaxy grand prime sm-g530h with odin(versions 3.0.7, 3.0.9, 3.10.7) android 5.0.2, baseband G530HXXU2BOK3, kernel version3.10.49-1006642, im using windows 8.0 .
when a tried to install a custome recovery in order to install root and a custom rom i used odin 3.10.7 and all went smooth no errors in odin but when my device reboot and i tested if the custome recovery it did installed the stock recovery from android <3e> appeared, and i tried to install it with the stock recovery but it semms that it only works for samsung signed packages, itried to install differents recoverys but none of them installed.
If anyone can help me a will apreciate it from the bottom of my hearth
Thanks
Install the recovery again using Odin, this time after installation let the phone boot completely....then restart it into recovery.
The same happened with me too.
We just need to be patient xD
Hope it helps.
The trick is to reboot to recovery BEFORE it boots into the OS, otherwise there is a script that will rewrite the stock recovery back to the phone. Once you flash a rom or SuperSU zip, it will disable the script and allow TWRP to remain.
My galaxy s2 19100 was having problems and I wanted to flash a custom rom but did not make a backup first,so first I had to root and install a recovery I downloaded CWM-SuperSu-v0.97 installed it had root and I asssumed I had recovery also, did the wipe and installed the rom got error message saying instalation failed tried another rom same message then I realiased that cwm was not installed and was using the systems recovery and my computer
does not pick up the phone even after installing samsung drivers and Kies,so now there is no system and I can only boot into recovery and download modes. tried to use Odin 3 but still does not connect. how can I install CWM or TWRP img. so far I have googled but the required files is not on the websites anymore.
Please Help Thanks in advance:
Currently what recovery do you have installed?
