title: Difference between fastboot and recoverymode in android
body: <p>I just wants to know the difference between fastboot and recovery modes in android device.</p>
  
  <p>So far my understanding I thought that</p>
  
  <p>Recovery mode : contains a small Linux image, having some simple User interface with few recovery options.  </p>
  
  <p>fastboot mode : Once the phone is into fastboot mode we can install recovery images.</p>
  
  <p>can you please confirm whether my understanding is correct or not and please tell me when to use which one or combination of these two .</p>
