Hi guys,
I just want to ask you how could I replace TWRP Recovery with CWM on my LG G2 D802 International?Are there any issue/incompatibility?
I have rooted and installed TWRP, but I have issue with installing CyanogenMod 10.2 Stable (I checked MD5 and downloaded it many times): as I understand is a problem of TWRP compatibility.

It depends on what you download. If you download the recovery.img you can use the app "flashify" to flash the recovery, or if you download a flashable .zip then flash it in recovery then reboot recovery.
There are also instructions on how to use adb and loki here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670

Mandelbrot.Benoit thanks fot your reply.
I'm interested with the flashable zip, so I just need to download it from Official CWM topic the file called "ZIP FILES - OFFICIAL - TOUCH D802" and flash it from TWRP recovery?

I'm not 100% if thats a "lokified" recovery or not. I don't think you'll hurt anything by flashing it. If you can't flash something using that recovery then there is an issue and you can flash another recovery.

I used the Flashify app from the play store to switch recoveries with no issues.

What do You suggest?
Otherwise, there is also the app called ROM Manger which should automatically flash the CWM.
The important thing is that it does not create problems between recovery.

im just letting the S3 users know that i have now got an s3 and will begin developing for s3 now!
starting with my first creation for the s3, i have made a flashable .zip file that flashes the selected recovery, so no need for re-downloading and re-flashing, simply flash the .zip, then aroma will open asking whitch recovery to flash then it will flash then reboot into the new recovery!
coming soon!

ok, good luck with it!
personally I do not see the point yet as I just can download the single recovery (there is anyway not that much choice) and flash it but I am sure there are users that will appreciate an Aroma installer.

The point of this being that some recoveries cant flash certain .zip files... eg twrp 2.5.0.0 cannot flash .zip files with aroma, this is also a pachage to help developers!

An app that could connect to a central repository and download the latest versions would be great. Then using the same method stweaks by siyah uses to "hijack" recovery or temp boot would make more sense to me.
That way you open app, choose recovery to boot and flash your zips. Then boot back to android...
Rather than boot recovery, flash zip,,choose recovery, flash zip...
Or just use philz recovery and be able to flash all zips anyway

Hello guys,
I have a rooted stock Nexus 7 2012 (3g GSM) model. I've Installed on it is a very old CWM recovery v6.0.2.3 when i first bought it. It's been a long time since i got this device, and i forgot every thing about rooting & what not, so i want to use this easy method below.
I want to update this old recovery to the latest version, so i can flash new ROMS like CM11, PA and many others vie the new recovery.
So, I need help finding a .zip file of the newest recovery so i can install the update from this old recovery, is it doable?
Thanks,
You can use RomManager App if your are root : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager

How good is this method compared to the .zip flashable file?
Isn't the flashable file more safe from errors and such compared to that app?
the method is exactly the same, it's the official app of clockworkmod : it will flash the zip of the last cwm avalaible for your device automaticaly.
With CWM, you can download rom manager, and just flash CWM without ever using a computer, and i know theres a flashable .zip. how can i flahs TWRP without a computer?
Download latest img from here techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/mako
And flash IT through recovery
Unleashed by my Nexus 4
Or just install goomanager and flash it from there

just flash the twrp 2.7.0.0 latest flashable zip through cwm and reboot recovery. it will take you to the twrp recovery. Thats it.
Fashify worked great when i switched to twrp
Im seeing a lot of people that have hard bricked by trying to flash TWRP without a computer. Is it relatively safe to do this, or should i just wait till i can get to a computer?

If you already have root just use flashify from the play store. Download the twrp image from goo.im and flash it in flashify

I just installed TWRP (2.6.x) from GooManager (per the all-in-one thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314494), and I'm about to flash the GPE ROM by Danvdh. I understand that this ROM is NOT loki'd, and that normally I'd need to flash loki-doki, but I suspect that this TWRP is an "auto-loki" version, where it will automatically patch any new kernels that are installed. How would I know that this is the case?

if it boots and just sits there at the boot screen, chances are the recovery is not auto loki'ed, I flash the loki patch everytime a flash a rom to be on the safe side. Good luck

I think the only "auto-loki" is a CWM one called Philz recovery so chances are you'll need the loki-doki zip.
Its like 1MB anyways, might as weljust download it and keep it on your phone. It doesn't matter what rom or recovery your using its the same zip file and most recoverys let you flash more than one zip at a time anyways.
correct on all above
twrp is loki'd, so you can flash it. but does not auto loki non-loki'd roms etc
so flash loki after your mentioned rom
like AX, if in doubt i flash loki-doki anyway
:good:
I'm trying to flash the Black YouTube from TBO but I can't figure how.
Tried to flash from stock recovery but I think I'm doing something wrong, because it didn't worked.
Can someone tell me the steps to flash this? Do I need a custom recovery or not?

Yes you need custom recovery.
Just download the TWRP 3.0.M2-0 and flash it via adb by using this command in cmd window -
fastboot flash recovery <filename.img>
Whereas, the <filename.img> is the filename of your twrp recovery which you will download.
For example -
If you have downloaded the custom recovery with the filename "twrp 3.0.x.x" then you have to type the following code -
fastboot flash recovery twrp 3.0.x.x.img
After flashing the twrp, now reboot to recovery.
Once you are in recovery, go to install section and locate the zip file (your black YouTube zip file), select it and then swipe to flash.
After flashing, just reboot the system. That's it.

First unlock your device bootloader and then flash the TWRP 3.0M2-0 recovery.
