There is an app called lte2 recovery or something that let's you boot straight into cwm. That's the only way to get into cwm on this device.

Rom manager will not work you will most likely hard brick your phone by doing that

If you already have root you can also download an app from the Play Store called Quick Boot (Reboot). Specifically it's the one with the lightning bolt surrounded by a purple ring. This one gives you the option to boot into recovery and it has a widget. Hope this is of use.
