touch screen doesn't work in TWRP/CWM - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Touch screen is not working in TWRP and CWM on my phone. I'm running stock ROM (screens.attached), and flashed TWRP as per this thread, when touch screen didn't work, I went ahead and downloaded a TWRP app from Google Play and tried flasing with it (I'm rooted, yes) - same result, no touch screen. Later, I flashed TWRP .img with Odin, by converting it with this tool. Gave up and flashed CWM Touch, but the same problem persisted. What is going on, you think? I'm prefer TWRP, but using CWM now, since at least I can manipulate it using volume buttons.
My stock i9500 screenshot and here
Appreciate any input.

Thanks, I'll be leaving this for my last option, if nothing else will work. Want to be able to use TWRP though.

Interesting idea :fingers-crossed:, but I never saw a TWRP in zip, either .img or .tar for Odin.

Personally I've never had any issues at all with Philz touch so I would give that a go ?
See how you get on with that & you can always return to cwm

[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Touch & non-Touch 6.0.2.5

Hey Guys
I am sharing the latest CWM recovery images; CWM 6.0.2.5
To be straight, I used Koush's Recovery Builder to build these
latest recovery images in both, touch & non-touch variants.
And so I do not take any credit, all of it to Koush. Also, I didn't
publish a thread for this in development section since I didn't
perform any development on this.
Downloads
Touch Recovery TAR
Non-Touch Recovery TAR
Touch Recovery ZIP
Non-Touch Recovery ZIP
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How to build on your own?
Visit the Recovery Builder
Click on the "Existing Devices" tab.
Now under the Existing Devices dropdown, select "i9300".
Tick "Touch Recovery" option if you desire for the touch variant, otherwise do not touch it.
Now click on the blue colored "Build" tab.
The page will then prompt you with a reference build ID, take note of it.
Now continue to build server.
Look for the corresponding build ID.
Once its done, click on it.
You can now download your "recovery.img" build.
How to flash?
flash TAR files with Odin or mobile Odin
flash ZIP files in recovery
and dont forget to hit thanks if you like this
tried flashing this recovery but it doesn't flash either through odin or mobile odin.
Open .tar file using 7zip and get recovery.img. Then flash it using Mobile Odin. Works fine for me

Yes that to forgot odin can now flash img files now lol my mistake
im what Willis was talking about
what the difference with the 6.0.1.2 touch version ?
Is there any reason why to select the 'crespo' build from the existing devices drop down box??
What's the difference between picking the crespo rather than the i9300 choice???

............. Well um BIGGEST difference would be that i9300 is the intl s3 and crespo from what i remember is the nexus s so if you pick crespo you would build the latest recovery for the nexus s

Well the biggest thing i noticed was the ability to now sideload
and also the multiple no when wiping cache or dalvik is gone
it now only appears when doing a factory reset for good reasons

of course you have to select i9300 for SIII recovery !
crespo recovery is for other phone, don´t try to flash that !!
i guess 1.post is copied from other (crespo) thread, please fix nr.3 (Now under the Existing Devices dropdown, select "crespo".)

Tested 6019 touch recovery, created full backup, reset system, format /system, restored, no errors. Note that default backup is now tar good work

Something is wrong. I used the builder to build my own touch recovery yet mobil odin can't flash it. Not even if I pack it into a rar file. What do?

Best feature: apply zip from adb. (install zip from sideload -- adb sideload [package])
- but doesn't work
Not the very best solution to install a recovery manager like Odin Mobile if i'am without a system ... have someone a recovery in this version that i can flash through
Odin v3 with windooze?
Many thanks
I'd need a cwm flashable zip of it.

[Q] Change/Replace TWRP Recovery with CWM (ClockWorkMod) on LG G2

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

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.

Problem...
I think I did something wrong.
Flashed in PhilZ, installation (Rom and SuperSU) worked fine.
Selected "Reboot now" afterwards.
Now it's dead.
Nothing on power on, no fastboot, no flashmode...any suggestions?

Try VOL+ Power to reset it.
Thanks!
That actually did the trick.
I guess the tablet was stuck in some sorta weird power-state.
Tried it once, but probably held the buttons down too shortly.
Managed to get it to flash once, the three times.
Got into flashmode from there, everything running fine on 5.0.2 stock atm.
I guess next step is to root it
Thanks again man.

Yes you can. But this ROM on 1st post doesn't contain recovery, so you will have to install .zip with it via CWM too.
Hi everyone.
Can I update from official kitkat with this rom?
My device is rooted but that's all. No recovery or unlocked bootloader. SGP311.
If it's possible how can I do that? Can I keep my data and apps?
Thanks.

TWRP Reboots During Flash

Ok so I just got this tablet today (sm-t230nu) and I got it rooted. Rebooted into TWRP, and in my excitement, forgot to make a backup. I wiped everything, minus SD card. Went to flash a ROM, and it reboots TWRP. I've tried a few different ROMs, with same result. Zip file verification is unchecked, as well. Normally I could just restore the backup, but I didn't think anything would go wrong, and now I'm kinda stuck lol. I am downloading the stock ODIN file to flash now, but in the meantime I thought I'd try and fix this issue, too. Thanks

i dont think it was busybox's fault because custom recoveries dont need even root if they are installed thru odin

Man i told u before i tried these all exactly 3 type of file with 3 methods.
If TWRP doesnt work, idk if this can help you. The last options is flash other recovery to remove this problem. Try philz and cwm (which is the same but philz is advanced). Tip: If one recovery doesnt work dont try it
PS: You have the same scenario like me on TWRP installation
