What is it for

Recovery Mode - software that can be used to reset the phone to factory settings, back up data or download an update.

Manufacturers install stock Recovery on devices. It has the necessary functionality with no frills. If you plan to use official firmware and don't want to experiment with your smartphone, Stock Recovery will do just fine.

However, to install unofficial firmware, you need a custom Recovery like ClockworkMod Recovery or Team Win Recovery Project.

How to enable Recovery Mode on smartphones from different manufacturers

To go into recovery mode, you need to reboot the device using certain key combinations.
