I'm pretty sure that you download a file to your sdcard, boot up clockworkmod recovery, and install it from there you previously saved...??? Am I correct in my assumption?

Are you selecting flash zip from sd card or apply update.zip? You need to flash from sd card and it needs to be in the root oid card

Is there a particular reason why quickboot and rom manager won't boot to clockwork?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Well is your rom compatible with rom manager and did you flash the epic version in rom manager?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Its the experience rom didn't see anything in the op about compatibility
Anyone know?

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Go into the clockwork mod app and click flash clockwork and choose epic but make sure that the rom zip is on the root of your sd card not a folder. Yeah the epic experiance rom never says anything about being compatible with clockwork tho.

To be able to use rom manger to reboot into recovery you need to have a boot kernel that works with rom manager. If you flashed recovery the only way to get to it is by the volume down camera buttonv power button combo. Using quick boot or adb reboot recovery will take you into stock recovery in the boot kernel if you do this you need to select the flash update.zip line in recovery to get into clockwork.

Hey guys I have been trying to install a rom using clockworkmod recovery but when I install from sd card it runs the process them says installation aborted every time.
Locked bootloader
Clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.7
Sent from my R800x using xda premium
Maybe the Rom you install is not for Locked bootloader
It's my understanding that the roms that you use with a locked bootloader aren't flashable, but are to be used as a nandroid backup. In other words, the roms that you must flash are just for those with unlocked bootloaders.
I'm trying to install cola rom which is meant for locked bootloader

You seem to be trying to flash the zip of Cola, instead of unpacking it, and moving to /mnt/sdcard/ClockwordMod/backup/
What I am trying to do is to restore rather than flash but I do not have rom manager premium
I'm using rom toolbox
Sent from my R800x using xda premium
You don't need to use rom manager or rom toolbox. After you unpacked the zip file, place it in /clockworkmod/backup and if it doesn't exist, make it! After having the folder in the backup folder, get into your clockworkmod recovery and use the backup and restore menu there to restore.

Was just about to post the same thing.
Anyway, if you are having trouble booting into recovery, open a terminal, and type in adb shell reboot recovery and your device will reboot into the recovery console.
Thanks for the advice guys ill see what happens

Never mind already got it and its 100% working =]
I've actually never had the reboot recovery command work, even from the terminal on the phone.
Anyway, I'm here to correct that last command. You will either use
adb shell
reboot recovery
or
adb reboot recovery
Although an access denied error would mean that you need superuser privileges to correctly run the command. I don't remember if it's needed to reboot to recovery, it's just instinct for me to hit su when I use terminal or adb.
Problem is my computer crashed so I can't unpack cola6, meaning I can't place the folder in clockworkmod/backup

If you have it on your phone you can unpack it using ROM Toolbox.

i have CWM flashed on to my NS4g.I created a stock nandroid. When i flashed the stock nandroid CWM did asked me about flashing recovery and then did the reverse psych thing it does (thousand no's one yes.) Anyway I apparently clicked the wrong one and am stuck with CWM. I tried loading another nandroid, then reloading the stock and i didn't even get the option. So know i'm wondering how to get stock recovery back.

I read somewhere that you need to flash a stock recovery image via fastboot for stock recovery.

OK. Tried to install CM11 on my phone today. Stupidly tried with ROM manager. The flash failed. I tried to go back to recovery but each time I boot to recovery CWM tries to flash the same ROM. So I couldn't get back into cwm to nandroid restore. Tried re-flashed cwm with Odin but still would try to install the ROM at recovery. Had to flash twrp clear everything re-flash my original ROM and titanium backup restore. Any ideas how I can stop cwm from trying to re-flash the problem ROM if I go back to cwm recovery??

Hi,
What phone variant do you have?
i9505 or i9505G?
Maybe you can find where the recovery script is located that CWM is trying to open? Then delete that file so CWM won't be able to take orders from it.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
It's the i9505 but with the Google version of 4.4.2

That's what I was guessing but have no idea where this is stored. It's pretty low level so I'd be surprised if it was file based.

Hiya
Does installing a rom from CWM take ages?
I have tried to install a couple now and they seem to stop at the GT-I9505 screen?
I am installing from ext sd-card

Yes - used the wipe option inside CWM

The recovery script that it maybe opening as to why it keeps installing things.
