TWRP HANGS at the splash screen? 2.6.3.0 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Sorry .. I am New To This Phone.
I need a little Help guys ...
I have a At&t Gallaxy s4 ..
I installed Ver-2.6.30 using Goomanager.
And Now twrp HANGS at the splash screen!
I was wondering how I can DOWN GRADE to 2.5.0.2 using Goomanager ?
Or What's the easiest way to do it ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well .. I used Terminal Emulator - From Android Market
Copied the 2.5.0.2.img to my SD card
Then .. Used this command ..
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp-2.5.0.2.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
Worked great .. And Now seems to not hang a splash screen ...
Seems there needs a better way !

Yea, 2.6.3.0 is buggy use the 2.5 and you'll be fine.

2.5.0.3 and above all have issues on our device. 2.5.0.2 or a different recovery is recommended.

[Q] Booting into recovery shows "no command"

Hi there,
yesterday succesfully rooted my device using the insecure boot image.
Today booted and also flashed the new CWM recovery image but now, when booting into recovery only get an android logo and the text "no command" ?
Any ideas ? Flashed back to original recovery image but no change either ?
Root remains though and working fine.
Thanks

Not true read here again :
UPDATE: There is an official ClockworkMod recovery for Nexus 4 now available directly by Koush, so this should all be easy as pie now and you can now safely install CWM too. I am updating the CWM method with the updated instructions.

It seems tonight clockwork will release a new version with bugfixes which should make recovery working when flashed also.

New clockworkmod recovery 6.0.1.8 had been released and I can confirm myself that it is working perfectly and stays when flashed !
You can download it here and follow the instructions as written here.
Good luck !
excellent, i was waiting for someone to confirm before flashing it myself
(looks like this thread is just a party for the two of us, wooohooo, let's find the hidden alcohol)

Meanwhile a newer 6.0.1.9 is released as well, which will hopefully also fix the backup being in the wrong location and not usable
CWM is fixed. Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995440
6.0.1.9 is the one i flashed and I'm still looking for my backup :s

Disregard this post! It was meant for LBE which is a Virus or acts like one (Newest version that was translated)
I'm having the "no command" message as well. I've flashed CWM 6.0.2.3 no-touch (following this guide), and it doesn't seem to be sticking. It'll work the first time, but then revert to the "no command" screen. I've also tried flashing the stock recovery, and then I receive the same message. I have an unlocked bootloader, and I managed root via the same guide. Anybody have any ideas?

From efrants android 101 sticky:
I just flashed CWM, but every time I try to boot into CWM, I keep seeing the stock recovery. Why?
If you updated your Android build using an OTA update file (either manually or over-the-air), the update placed two files on your device that re-flash the stock recovery every time you reboot your device. These two files are:
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh <== this is the script that installs the patch file
/system/recovery-from-boot.p <== this is the patch
You have to rename (or delete) one or both of them, then re-flash your custom recovery. Now it will stick.

Perfect! Thank you! I had just previously downloaded 4.2.1, and so renaming recovery-from-boot.p did the trick. I had to remount my /system as read/write (used Total Commander, and it worked like a charm.

Yes it's with terminal emulator.
Have a look here for the command to use.
It can be used with any recovery.img, but you'll need root for the command to work.

Just to be on the safe side: the stock recovery is the same for N/L/T etc?
How would I make a backup of my stock recovery if I wanted to?

yes, all same. use "Terminal Emulator" app from Play Store by Jack Palevich, you need root and busybox. open it, type "su" then enter, and then type again "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21 of=/storage/sdcard0/stockrecovery.img".. then an image file of your backuped recovery was created in your sdcard.. you can change the path of the "of"
HEY TYS0N!! THIS IS MY REPORT: I've flashed your "NON TOUCH CWM - the md5 file" with ODIN 3.07 and I got ONLY the external sd card shown in recovery but labeled as internal (I TRIED REBOOT but still same).. I was panicing.. then I flashed root with it.. and change my recovery as soon as it finished boot with "dd" command with the official one. I reboot to the *official* recovery, then got it all worked..
to the point: does the files that you provided is different?? or any damage in your files? do you got it with your phone working? if there's any, please change.. what's dangerous that people using your files and get their device brick.
thanks for read... greets

okay thx. I need to explain what I mean, there's no "flash zip from external sd card". Only "install zip from sd card". But after selecting "install zip from sd card" (this is must be internal right?), it displays my external sd, not internal.

All CWM-files replaced now. Downloaded from official CWM site and made new *.tar.md5
Hope it works now.
Updated "i8190_stock_recovery.tar.md5" with one that doesn't increase custom binary count.:good:
+1 for this thread, this is what the doctor order for my friends I8190..Thanks tyson..
So dude, if I install this stock he would return to the status of "official"? For my is appearing "modify". I tried to put it and still has not changed. You have the stock for the GT-I8190L? I need a lot. Thank you.

Recovery is the same for all versions. Using triangle away might help get your official status back if you triggered the custom binary count by flashing recovery through Odin.
Depends on what you've done to get your status modified.

It's pretty bulletproof, install driver, double click the batch phone, plug in phone, press y and then enter, wait. TWRP is installed, can flash custom ROM now or root using a flashable su binary like this one http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
I wouldn't be afraid of ADB, the only use I had for adb was pushing over the image of Loki and TWRP with adb push, and with rooting, look at "IOroot".
Sent from my awesome VZW LG G2
I too had not used adb in the past until this phone. I don't know why I never wanted to use it, but it is pretty simple to use. As long as you follow the directions in the threads for installing twrp or cwm and make sure to do exactly as they say you should be fine. Since there are a few versions of this phone just make sure you are getting the right recovery for your phone
You could use your phone to download the recovery image (TWRP) and use flashify (found in the play store) to flash the image. It's quick and easy.
I used flashifly and works easily. My only question when I used flashifly with art image does it come with loki installed with it. And if so will flashifly take me right into recovery to flash New roms?
Thanks
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
UsingRom Manager or Flashify is not really recommended. Who knows what version you are getting of whatever you are trying to flash. Better to use the simple adb commands and .bat script with loki to properly install a recovery with loki built in and to get root installed.
I used Flashify to install TWRP and I do not know if it is a Flashify or TWRP issue but the backups I do in TWRP has dates at 1970 and the times are about 6 hours and 15 minutes off. Does anyone know if this is a TWRP or Flashify issue?
Trying to decide if I should use adb to install TWRP on my G2.

[Q] (T-Mobile) (D801) Installing Recovery Help

I have the Tmobile LG G2 (D801)
-Software D890110G
-Build JDQ39B
-Rooted using ioroot method
I cannot install either TWRP or CWM Recovery.
No matter what method I use to install a recovery (a zipped recovery) or using adb fastboot, I always end up on a black screen with
[720] Fastboot mode started
[770] udc_start()
I need the latest CWM or TWRP so I can flash 4.4 Roms. I feel like there is no definite guide on how to install the recovery or it seems like a recovery for D801 does not exist.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.
-Esteef
There is a guide and a YouTube video walking you through installing twrp through adb. I used it Saturday, works. But I'm thinking I need cwm to install cm11 twrp fails every time.

Look around in the here for the commands, but what you will have to do is format the fota and misc partitions using adb shell and the dd cmd. Then phone will boot allowing you to install a working recovery, rom and your off and running

Connect to PC. If ur a Samsung user, download a stock firmware. download Odin.
Next click PDA on Odin and choose the downloaded firmware . extension will be ".tar.md5" . this will take 10 mins. After that your device will be factory reset like a new ones. But its worth it.
