Root Phone always boots into recovery

Hello, I've been rooted ever since the Froyo OTA - learning things everyday but my phone always boots into recovery now, even when I simply turn it off and on - without triggering recovery (home, volume, power - or through bootstrapper, RM). I've just gotten used to pressing "Reboot" and everything goes back to normal. Now before as long as I didn't go into Reboot Recovery under X Bootstrapper it would reboot normally.

Any ideas? Heres a list below that best describes my phone -

Launch day droid X
Running official OTA 2.3.15.MB810
Rooted
Deodexed for Revolution theme
Blue status bar theme
Custom boot animation
Running LPP atop OS
NO apps removed or renamed, only frozen via TB

List of Root apps -
SU
TB
Droid X Bootstrapper
Drocap2
BH ROM Manager
Rescan Media Root
Root Explorer
ADfree
TempMonitor
Wireless Tether
Droid Wall
DX/D2 Overclocker FROZEN


I've made several backups through recovery, but haven't had to use them. I also have data/apps backed up in TB. Unfortunately I jumped the gun and didn't back up before I deodexed/Themed/Rooted the phone so the images I have are basically what I'm running as of right now

Its just strange, seems like sometimes it will reboot normally but others it will boot into recovery - since I can't repeat this something in my head tells me I'm missing something or have something set up incorrectly.

If anyone has an idea please feel free to post -

Thanks so much in advance, if anyone needs more info on the phone to answer this question please feel free to ask - I will be checking this frequently.

OK, after doing some research (sorry its early) I notice that yes in fact with BS installed recovery comes up on every boot now "just in case" - similar to maybe a BIOS option or recovery option on a PC.

Well sorry for the waste of space, hopefully this thread will help anyone else wondering the nature of what I mention above - maybe not a complete loss.

Have a nice day :)
 
Well I spoke too soon, after working with an icon issue I simply rebooted normally and no recovery - what I thought from the beginning is you have to go into X bootstrapper and "reboot recovery" to boot into recovery. Maybe I'm not completely understanding the app and all of its functions.

Ideas?

ThanxIA

Same issue after the update, had bootstrap previously installed. I rooted again, bootstrapped again, rebooted into recovery and from then on out it reboots normally.
 
Mine used to do the same thing, but it randomly stopped. Honestly I kind of miss it; it made restoring backups that much easier haha.
