If you ask about app that can flash a recovery, goo.im can do that.

Flash twrp, then find a zip file with the recovery you want and flash that? Or buy flash image GUI from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.flashimagegui sounds like that does what you're looking for

Okay so like many of you cwm isn't sticking and when I go into recovery I just have the Google logo, I want to flash ROMs so installed ROM manger and found that if you boot into recovery through that app you can get into cwm.
Would like some advice on which is the best and safest method you have used! Thanks

My cwm didn't stick and when I manually go into recovery it hangs on the boot screen. ROM manager seems to work

i assume so, since i use it over and over and over again. anyways, theres a file you have to remove or rename in the /system/ fs that causes the recovery to not stick. most custom roms already have it removed, stock rom you have to remove it. the file is recovery-from-boot.p, rename it or remove it and your recovery will stick(at least twrp, cwm should also).

Hi
Basically I am new to android. I rooted by nexus 4 yesterday and installed CM 10.1 successfully. But I had some issue with the security settings so I tried to flash the system.img as per the instructions in one of the forum. But flashing didn't complete fully. Now my nexus 4 boots up only till the nexus logo and the logo keeps glowing. clockwork recovery works fine.But unfortunately i deleted the CM 10.1 zip file from the mobile after i installed it. Is there anyway i can push the rom into the mobile. Or is there any recovery option?? Please help
thanks.
Its a lot of flashing but you could restore your nandroid redownload the rom and reflash it

how to restore nandroid?
Wipe cache and dalvik cache through cwm
He is assuming you made a nandroid backup of your original ROM. Did you? You could also boot in to recovery and perform a factory data reset.
Yes im assuming because thats the first thing you do before flashing lol

Try the side load option with adb and cwm only thing I can think of
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Thank you. I used the "install from side load" option and pushed the CM 10.1 zip file into the mobile. Now I am using AOKP rom.

Hello! I rooted my phone and installed custom recovery using Mskip's toolkit. How can I update the CWM recovery? Can I install it using ROM manager and do I need to update there or just install a newer version?

You can update recovery from rom manager app. Touch version costs extra though. For manual flashing, all of the images are available for download on his site.

Having a bit of bother getting my nexus up and running again. Pulled my phone out my pocket and it was turned off. Powered it on but it wouldn't get past Google screen. No twrp recovery. Nothing. So done the usual and get nexus toolkit out. Re locked and unlocked bootloader. Downloaded stock 4.2.2 flashed it but still stuck at Google screen. Can get in to fast boot but that's it.
Any help appreciated because I'm not sure what to do next
Cheers

Try going into fastboot, and flashing stock with the official firmware from google (Type Nexus stock on Google). If you want to, you can even replace the recovery.img inside the zip for a custom recovery

Been installing stock from fastboot but can't get into recovery to wipe it so that it will boot.
What program can I use to compress tgz files. I've changed the recovery to twrp but not sure how to pack it up again

When I flash stock with nexus 4 toolkit it comes up archive doesn't contain boot.sig recovery.sig or system.sig. Why is this?

If you know how to use the ADB and the fastboot command, that is the way to go. It is by far the best way to go. Use one of the guides on this website, don't have the direct link but look for efrants guide for returning back to stock. Search isn't working now
When I flash factory images in bootloader and then flash my custom recovery do I still need goo manager to make it stick?

Yes, but why would you want to? You can't make a nandroid backup in the stock recovery

My daughter needs a phone, I was going to flash rastakat because it gave me better battery life. I'm afraid she will reboot into recovery and flash something that's not a ROM/kernel.

Sounds like it's a good time to learn responsibility. If she's old enough to have a phone, have her buy an inexpensive android. There are a mess of them. I've found my kids to be better stewards of the things they've had to work for than things just given to them.
