[Q] TWRP isnt opening - Kindle Fire General

I am running CM9 and i wanted to update it, but it will not boot into recovery through firefirefire. has anyone else encountered this issue?

that's mostly a failed twrp installation
would recommend to reinstall twrp and double check the file size of the .img
should be ~10mb

Well the word thing was it had worked already. Io don't know what I did but it must have been deleted. I use this app to reinstall it
https://market.android.com/details?...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zaW1yYW4ucmVjbWFuYWdlciJd

Omg..don't do that. Uninstall that app nao!
You need to reflash recovery Use KFU.

Installing roms

I have rom manager installed and am trying to install a rom from sdcard I keep gettin error message after it boots into recovery mode can someone tell me what I am doing wrong

Try giving us a little more details on what the error message says. Otherwise it's hard to determine what exactly you're doing wrong.
We can start with the basics, do you have ClockWorkMod installed?
Yes clockworkmod is installed, the error message e: file signature failed
E:failed to verify
Installation aborted

Try installing the ROM without using ROM Manager. Boot into ClockworkMod Recovery, then manually choose the zip and flash.
This usually means that clockwork is not installed correctly and that you are not flashing the rom from within clockwork.

I installed it from rom manager and it said it installed right, hold down vol down power and camera to get into recovery mode correct? Then how do I manually choose the zip file?

I rooted my epic w one click and I did a factory restore did that take out my root privs ?

It definitely sounds as though you haven't properly installed ClockWork -- IT appears you are booting in to the stock recovery, which will not allow you to flash a rom.
Assuming your phone is rooted, you will want to goto this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782300
and download this method of installing clockwork. Follow the directions on the post, and you shouldn't have an issue getting clockwork to run.
I'm just curious....did you rename or move this from inside the phone? I know I moved a couple roms using astro and then tried and no go.....maybe it was just me tho...

No Super User...Su binary?

Just followed instructions for CM7 on eemc with nightly 106 and OC kernel.
Rom Manager says no superuser? So I installed from market and superuser says there's updated binary but can't complete auto install. But it put a .zip on sd card and said to instal via recovery... which puts me back to step 1 which was trying to use ROM manager to write recovery?
What went wrong here and how to fix? Didn't have any of these problems when I did my son's nc the same way last week.

Don't know how to install cwm w/o rom manager. Put my card back to cwm img and tried to flash the updated binary.... says bad?
Guess there's something broke with 106 and su.
Started afresh with cm 102 (as recommended), gapps, and Oc kernel. All is well...
Zeam Launcher
Nook tweeks
Netflix
Netflix fixer
...good for now!

Had the same problem here. I'm away from my Nook right now, but I fixed it by downloading Superuser from the Extras menu in RomManager, then rebooting to recovery via the normal shutdown screen and applying it manually. The zip is in the clockwork folder, in the goo-inside.me folder. Just select it from "*choose zip" menu and reboot.
I may have the details slightly wrong.
Superuser definitely got left out of #106.
Aloha,
cap
Thanks. I had to do the same to get su.
Wondering why is left out of 106.
I am having the same problem... except every time I try to download the new SU binary it says that there was an error and that I should boot into recovery blahblahblah, but when I do it says that there was an error installing the .zip file. What else can I do?

I'm still on 102 no prob. They discuss this issue on the cm thread. Try doing it from rom manager.
Download Rom, extras, superuser...
Then instal from cwm under clockwork/downloads/...and some sub directory.

[Q] clockworkmod

how can i update my clockworkmod have tryed through CWM app which updates it but after reset it goes back to old one have tried wit unrevok wich froz on waiting for root and have tried wit terminal which never worked any othr way.
Download cwm Ingram file, then from your PC use fastboot.executive to flash, or else put image in root of SD and use terminal to flash it. Search the forum you will find both methods. Using rom manager to flash cwm is not permanent method. It just boots into recovery and use the 'update zip like ' file to temporary boot into another recovery. It just make use of cwm files in memory card to boot.

Root toolbox works for me, download the image start root toolbox, select advanced then flash recovery, accept the pop-up warning that recovery partition will be wiped, choose the image and then watch......... simples.

[Q] Cannot upgrade ROM Manager (clockworkmod) without google market

I cannot upgrade ROM Manager v4.3.2.3 without using google marketplace. Keep in mind I'm trying to upgrade ROM Manager so that I can install the google apps (which include the market). Since I don't have the latest version of clockwork mod (the latest as of today is v4.4.0.6), I get this message when I select "Download ROM":
"You must upgrade your ROM Manager to the latest version!"
Well, I cannot do that, because I don't have the Market.
I've tried so many things, all I want is the market and I'll be done messing with this phone. I've tried installing the latest google apps zip.
And I've tried installing a recovery image from clockworkmod.com's site
When I say "install", what I'm doing is:
put the .zip onto the SD card
boot into recovery
install the .zip
I can boot into clockwork recovery mode perfectly fine though.
I'd be nice if ROM Manager had a selection "update app" or something, then I wouldn't be in this mess. Also, for whatever reason, I installed ROM Manager today, and it did not give me the latest version. I wish I noticed before installing CyanogenMod on it.
Thanks for the help.

Go to the link , download the zip, install it using recovery after dalvic and cache wipes, reboot, install absolute system root tool, using it uninstall current rommanager, reboot, install new rommanager from market or somewhere else.

Do you wipe data/cache and do a factory reset before flashing new rom? For me, it get stuck at boot screen if I flash a new rom without wiping.
Wiping data and factory reset is so important. When I tried to flash my first ROM it also got stuck. Try using 4ext instead of twrp.

There are several more partitions than the ones you listed. Try a different recovery. If that doesnt work, you might return to stock Froyo and try rooting again the right way. I think the problem stems from the method you used to get get the engineering bootloader installed. It will always show S-Off, regardless of the state of the flag. It's possible that because you started off by going through HTC Dev that something is off. In fact, as a test, try flashing your boot.img separately through fastboot and see if it boots.
I tried that and it didn't work even when I relocked the boot loader from the HTC dev site and switched the eng boot.IMG to an updated one and got s off with gfree it boot froyo but would boot any ROM that I flashed with cwm and twrp still yet to try 4ext can't find the file for glacier specifically

Try 4EXT, it it may fix the problem. Heres a link to the APK. It will install the recovery itself after you install the apk, open it, and click install or whatever it is.
Link for the apk is here --->http://www.4ext.net/get.php?apk
Or you could get it from the google store.

I think he means that he requires the .img because he cannot boot into the OS to run the .apk on his phone.
If it is inappropriate to post a link to this file, I apologize in advance. It is FREE and I take no credit for creating any part of EXT4 Recovery.
