Currently I have CWM version 1.0.3.4 and I'd like to either update it or go to TWRP. I've been trying all night but can't do it. When I try to update through ROM Manager, it says successful, but when booting into recovery it's still 1.0.3.4. Same with TWRP, I downloaded GooManager, and tried from there. Said successful, but did nothing. Is this a kernel issue? The way I see it, right now I cannot change my custom recovery no matter what. ( I also don't have access to a PC, so everything needs to be done on my device.. )
Thanks in advance!
Google s4 twrp zip xda. Flash that in your current recovery
Never use ROM manager for newer devices. It is very outdated.

jflteatt comes up now on rom manager for a cwm download, but I tried flashing it and every time it just brings me back to oudhs. I went back to twrp hoping that would do something and it does the same thing. It even says I'm running cwm 6.0.3.2 when I have twrp loaded. I'm confused as to what I'm doing wrong, but I want my traditional cwm if possible.
I'm not saying that ROM Manager won't work, but given that nobody else on here has even mentioned using it successfully, I'm kind of wondering why you decided to go it alone rather than follow one of the excellent guides to flashing recovery on you $700 phone.

Because I'm daring and have black tie from best buy to get a free phone (not to sound like a piece of ****). I stopped at this point because I changed the url from the t mobile touch version on the rom manager portion of the cwm site and it downloaded the jflteatt version. I'm stopping until we hear something though because there must be a reason he hasn't listed the file yet. I'm fine with OUDHS anyway. It's great. I just love the interface of the original cwm touch. I don't even know where to flash it in adb anyway. What is the recovery partition to flash an img on this phone?

Download Odin flashable file from website, then use Odin, Google will get you a guide on how to do it, then you will have any recovery you desire, rom manager and goo are okay, but Odin is boss.

Assuming You're Rooted, see below, If you're NOT yet Rooted, watch this video first http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=cI9r5dEcNo4 follow the steps then see below.
If you wan't OUDHS, follow steps 1-5
If you wan't TWRP, stop after step 2
1) download goomanager
2) install TWRP via goo manager
3) download OUDHS for ATT i337 flashable zip
4) Reboot into TWRP Recovery
5) Flash OUDHS Recovery flashable zip.
ROM Manager and ODIN not required.
Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD. Just ask the guy who flashed an aroma installed wicked S3 rom to his S4 (twice) He didn't even need bestbuy's "black tie" he just used the low budget walmart return policy.

Haha note taken. I fooled around a little more before I read this and finally stopped. I'll wait and see. I have premium so I wanted to flash touch. The original downloads fine and flashes, but doesn't stick. The touch one is giving me the server error which it wasn't doing an hour ago. I contacted the cwm team. Hopefully they'll get a working version up soon and fix the error. Until then, I'm staying with the OUDHS that I've had since the day of the exploit release.
When I try to update my recovery from within the ROM Manager app it shows that I have the newest recovery installed. When I boot into recovery it shows the old version. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Flash the recovery.img manually via fastboot, or use the flashable zip (easier).
You can download the flashable zip of your choice (touch or classic) here.

ROM Manager boots a recovery from RAM, for that reason it does not boot to whatever recovery.img you may have flashed in Fastboot, *and vice versa. Not a bug, just the way Rom Manager works.
As mentioned above if you want to update the version your see when you manually boot to recovery, fastboot flash it.

ROM Manager updates my recovery just fine, I flashed version 6.0.3.6 (downloaded through ROM Manager and transfered over to my PC) through fastboot and then just updated it to 6.0.3.8 through ROM Manager about a week ago. When I manually boot into recovery it's the updated version not the one I flashed through fastboot. So somethings not right that it's not flashing the newer recovery to the phone. Maybe try updating it again. Also do you have the free or paid version of ROM Manager? Not sure if it makes a difference or not but it was the first app I bought for my Droid Eris back in 2010 specifically to flash CWM to it as all other methods failed.
Been doing a little looking around and this link says you have to keep the version of CWM you downloaded on the phone. ROM Manager automatically downloads it and stores it in a download folder when you update. From what CMNein says you need it to boot from I would guess.

Also I'm using Koush's superuser that I installed through ROM Manager and not chainfire's SuperSU maybe that makes a difference. Koush has been going a slightly different route with his su than chainfire.
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.

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.

I just I stalled twrp on my phone today, so here's how I did it. Download recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2469995 , save it on phone SD, dcim folder. Now download flashify from play store. Go to app and choose recovery image, look for the one downloaded earlier. That will flash the recovery and boot after.

Just Tried your method I still get the black screen with the Text on the top left corner.
I'm starting to believe I cannot change recoveries on my phone.
Also, using your method, It only installs 2.6.3.2 , I need 2.6.3.4 or latest CWM cause I want 4.4 based roms. 2.6.3.2 always give me an error when installing 4.4 roms

I am having the same problem can someone help.
Long story short: I want cm on the S4 after using it on the HD+, but CWM isn't booting up.
I've seen problems regarding simply accessing the recovery mode like needing to use the buttons twice after powering on, but the thing is that after getting to do this, for whatever reason, the phone boots up with the default recovery option (Android system recovery <3e>).
Some background on the phone would be that it is rooted, about one year ago when I bought it. I fear that I might have flashed something back then, but I don't have any of the files. To add, I sadly don't remember the method, but I can give some device info:
View attachment 2870784
The next and last thing would be that ROM manager says I have CWM installed and even with the reboot option of the app, it takes me to the default recovery.
View attachment 2870785
Any similar experiences on how to deal with this? I'd at least have a means to access CWM.
Are you sure you're still rooted? If you're not sure I would re-flash root using motochopper

Well, yes. I do have things like tethering and su on the phone, plus root checking apps from the store say its rooted.
ROM Manager is crap. It says I have CWM 6.0.4.7 installed but when I boot into recovery it says 6.0.4.4.
I've been looking for a way to manually install the latest Touch version of CWM but so far I've come up with nothing. Maybe if you flash TWRP (via Goo Manager app) you'll then be able to flash CWM back over it. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 tries for Goo Manager to successfully flash the recovery.
Even better, I figured out how to flash CWM touch. The loki_tool downloaded here can patch any compatible img file and then flash your recovery directly.

The readme was very helpful.

Thanks for the link! It was really easy to follow.
I have an i337. Never had any OTAs. I was using a recovery that would 'auto-loki' so I never had to flash the lokidoki zip before.
I'm trying to install the latest GPE by Danvdh and I keep ending up booting into twrp(2.6.0.0).
I wipe all that one would normally wipe.
Then I flash the ROM.
The aroma installer starts, I've tried the googy kernal and (mostly) the stock kernal.
I uncheck the reboot now option at the end of the aroma installer to get back into twrp
I then flash the lokidoki zip.
I reboot and get kicked back into the recovery.
I'm thinking I may need a newer version of TWRP, but I'm not sure. I dont want to use odin to get back on jellybean just to update the recovery unless I know that's the issue.
the loki zip is ~10MB
Any info is much appreciated. I've been at this for hours.
You need a newer version of twrp. You don't need to use Odin. Look for the flashify app in the play store.

My phone is only booting into recovery though. I have the latest twrp image. Is there a way to flash it from within twrp?

If you can find a zip. I'd make one for you, they're easy once you know how, but I'm traveling on business and don't have access to a computer.
