thank you but I need only the stock recovery for future updates

That's why i said, boot the custom recovery and not flash the custom recovery. Booting it won't flash the custom one so it stays on after a reboot.
You need a custom recovery to root the rom. You can't do it without !

I found the recovery stock here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
While flash this recovery (from file ROM), the root will not stay on device?

If you extract just the recovery from the image zip and flash that, root will stay. If you flash the whole thing, root will be gone.

Only recovery image zip, so my Nexus will stay with root & unlocked bootloader?
Stock recovery will possible to get OTA from google?
To flashing recovery image zip, copy file recovery.img to storage device and running command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"?
Thanks
If I am reading what you wrote correctly, yes to all your questions
Root needs to have been installed using SuperSU v1.55 or above for ota to work.

[Q] Can't Update My HTC ONE X

Hey guys
it's an OLD issue with my phone, some of you were able to help me before, and I hope it is the same CASE again.
I'm unable to update my Phone to correct the HEARTBLEED BUG!!
& Can't ROOT it!!
I think the problem is with the MASTER USB, whatever that is
because whenever I try to update it or root it, it says CAN'T OPEN Master USB!
I followed EVERY STEP available on the WORLD WIDE WEB , yet my phone is called a SMART PHONE !

First you must be with stock rom and stock recovery if you want to update the phone and the phon must be not rooted. Second when you go in bootloader first go in bootloader and then connect the phone to computer and you will not see this massage
Well, even when I go into the bootloader and connect my USB, NOTHING happens!
Please see the pic.

I will try your method and I hope it WORKS :$

If you are on stock ROM, you just need to flash stock recovery as OTA doesn't work with custom recovery (TWRP).
If you know your CID head over to stock backups thread and flash the stock recovery for your CID and you should be good to go.

Time to search, read up and learn.
If you had done this is the first place, you would know that OTAs are not compatible with custom recovery.
Also, there are quite a few threads on how to install stock recovery.
May I ask how you installed a custom recovery. Stock is done the same way thus you should know how it works ...

Need help to install Phoenix rom

Hi, I want to install phoenix rom on my tab s t800, but I have one question.
I don't understand when I have to flash the developer's bootloader, before or after gain root with cf root+twrp?
I'm on stock lollipop.
Thanks
Just flash the rom with twrp first. If it doesn't boot then you will need to flash the bootloader.
