I currently have TWRP2.3.2.3 and tried downloading and installing the latest version of TWRP through Goomanager.
Although Goomanager says install is completed successfully, when I reboot back into TWRP it still shows version 2.3.2.3
What do I do to install 2.6?
Thanks

Are you installing the correct version? I accidentally tried installing 2.4.1.3 for the Toshiba Excite awhile back, and it wouldn't take(It was late and I was dumb). It worked when I used the correct version. If not just download the file to a computer and flash via fastboot.

Yes, GOO is downloading openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-manta.img
I am pretty sure that is the right recovery.

Manually install it through terminal. Easy:
Copy the recovery file to /sdcard/
Open your terminal and type:
Code:
cd /sdcard/
su
dd if=openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-manta.img of=/dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name/recovery
reboot recovery
Remember that you need busybox installed!

In sdk manager select android platform tools and asus drivers and install them once thats done open command prompt and go to the directory containing adb for me it was c:/android-sdk/platform-tools
Ensure debbuging mode and asus sync are turned on on your tf101 plug it up and the run the command
adb devices
this will tell if adb sees your device. If it does then run the command
adb shell
then just follow rest of instructions under method 3 in wolf post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622628

I just tried this after installing the new 9.2.1.24 (downloaded from Asus), and it seems to work. I followed Wolf's method 3 without any modifications. I have a TF101, US model.

What BLOB file did you use
well yes, through CWM one can install su-binary then.
but through CWM you will loose OTA-updates!
just look at the time between .21 and now .24... it is quite comfortable as it is.
why can't we use such a "file linking trick" to mount /system and install su-bin directly?
You can't write to /system as it's mounted read only.
What you can do is keep a copy of mmcblk0p4 before writing the new recovery, then flash it back after rooting. That way you keep your ability to upgrade next time around.
good idea!
I'm still a bit unsure about this RECOVERYBLOB flashing,
but if nothing else comes up I can resort to this.

After doing the update ota it reboots and takes my to cwm recovery and asks to if I want to install this untrusted zip but when I say yes it gives me an error. I am on stock kernel rooted with an unlocked bootloader.
like the million other upgrade threads, you cant update to OTA with a custom recovery....
You can download the OTA update file and install it with cwm or twrp recovery. I used cwm recovery with supersu and voodoo ota rootkeeper and installed the update, kept cwm recovery and root.

How to install using twrp?
Maybe a little more noob friendly idea. Is there an easy way to get stock recovery back? May also help those without easy access to a computer.
Is there a way to restore factory recovery using a terminal emulator?

Try flashing with the app provided below, will do either a zip or a img file. Just make sure your new Recovery file has been Loki'd.

The Recovery imagine you downloaded should already be Loki'd. Verify this from the location or forum you got it from.

Make sure the recovery you flashed with flashify was a zip or img, make sure it was for your phones model, make sure its loki'd, or download Quickboot from the play store and tap recovery.

If you've got 3.2 installed already, if 3.3 is a zip, you should just be able to flash it. :good:
everything went fine until i typed adb reboot recovery
followed the guides on here to flash TWRP, finally got everything flashed through adb and when i went to the final step to reboot in to recovery it said "error : device not found" .... Is this normal? should i just unplug/replug and try the reboot bootloader command again? It said the image was loki verified and flashed succesfully, but when i typed in reboot recovery it said "error: device not found" any advice/help is much appreciated
I was running the CM 10.2 Stable on my LG G2. I downloaded the CM 11 snapshot and 4.4 gapps in my phone.

TWRP 2.6.3.2 can't flash 4.4 ROMS. You need to update to 2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4 for that. You should be able to search to find a link, because I don't think there's a dedicated topic to anything above 2.6.3.2.

The thing is i am stuck at TWRP as I wiped the davic, cache, system and data. Can i install the Latest version from the TRWP recovery itself?
If YES then how can i copy the latest version files into my phone?
If NO then what should i do? I am stuck in the TWRP after all.
Do you have a backup? I would think the easiest way would be to restore and then download and flash.
Or just flash an old ROM if you have one on the phone.
I'm not too experienced otherwise, but i think download mode would work? I haven't actually used that before though.

I think you have two choices.
1. flash back the CM10.2 and start from there
2. flash new recovery image via adb then flash new firmware

Do you have any experience with ADB? As Votinh brought up, you can push the new recovery image over through the shell on the computer. There's tutorials for pushing a recovery through ADB on here somewhere also.

I used the adb when I first installed the custom recovery. I followed forum instructions/you tube video to do that. They require the phone to be in a working state. But as my phone now can only go to the currently installed recovery (TWRP). I am not sure how to do anything that needs to be done.

How do I copy files to my internal storage when my phone is stuck in recovery mode? When i connect my phone to PC the PC does not recognize it.
So how can i copy any files either a new custom recovery or an older rom?

You don't have to flash a new recovery with adb. Just find the image file for your phone then download an app called flashify. It takes less than a sec to flash then your done.
