How to update CWM - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Custom rom/recovery

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

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).

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

[Q] Rooting: CWM and SuperSu for Nexus 4 JB4.3

Hello,
I have a stock Nexus 4 with Android 4.3, I was wondering if:
1. The latest SuperSu 1.51 is compatible with 4.3.
2. ClockWorkMod recovery 6.0.3.5 is compatible with 4.3; all the 4.3 rooting method I've been reading cite the TWRP not CWM.
Thanks!
You can flash TWRP 2.6 via Fastboot or Flashify and yes you can flash SuperSU 1.51 via TWRP or CWM Recovery.
In fact SuperSU 1.51 is supported with Android 4.3 fully with a fix for TB so you can restore apps.

yes you will have problems.... and then youll be back on here for hours reading and praying you can figure out how to solve them
you cannot install an OTA with a custom recovery..... you have to be complete stock.... no mods at all like the hotspot hack either
Ok thank u
