Hi all,
Could not find anything related to this so will just ask.
I am currently on CarbonROM and have TWRP as my recovery. I have read that with Android 4.4, you will less problems flashing it over 4.3 if you are on CWM rather than TWRP.
So can I just flash the latest CWM over my current TWRP using the following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-mako.img ?
Thank you in advance.
yes, you can just flash right over. or.. you can use the modified multirom version of twrp if you want to keep using twrp, kitkat flashes fine with it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2508840
im trying to flash TWRP over the official cwm that i have now because i want to flash the 4.4 paranoid rom BUT, it bootloops and requires TWRP. how can i flash twrp back on my G2? when i try to flash the TWRP zip in recovery it tells me failed and when i try flashify, it just keeps flashing but nothing happens.
Thank you

stock I think..
You cannot use stock recovery to flash a custom ROM.
You'll need to install a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM.
I suggest you unlock the bootloader, flash the TWRP or CWM, and then flash a custom rom.

Download the latest TWRP or CWM img file. Put the phone in fastboot mode, connect it to your computer, make sure the drivers are properly installted, and type fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img.

I have stock ROM Android version 4.4.2 and have rooted my device using CF-autoroot, I flashed the img file of CWM 6.0.3.2 using the app Flashify and was then asked "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix?" when rebooting to system and answered with "Yes - Disable recovery flash". When the device rebooted I was returned to CWM and everytime I reboot I return to CWM so I flashed TWRP using ODIN, yet when I reboot I return to CWM and can only reach TWRP if I click on Advanced>reboot to recovery.
What should I do?
Flash the whole stock firmware and start from beginning. When you have rooted again, flash cwm or twrp via odin.
^ What he said.
I think you messed up your bootloader. Had a similar issue on an Galaxy S Advance. Flashing a bootloader solved the issue
