I want to backup stock recovery before flashing TWRP recovery. Is anyone know how to do it?
Mine is Zenfone Selfie (ZD551KL). Latest firmware (WW_21.40.0.2081).
boot to twrp using
fasbtoot boot twrp_filename.img
than backup stock recovery.

Thanks. I able to backup the recovery. But the file is .win. Can I backup recovery as .img? So when needed I can flash it using fastboot. Or the .win is supported by fastboot to flash recovery?

Use TWRP to flash it if you need it, don't use TWRP from your recovery, just BOOT twrp from your pc so you can restore easily your recovery backup (the one you made with TWRP)

you can NOT flash the stock recovery over clockwork
So, what CAN we do?
I thought we could flash the 2.3.1 Ingram and this restores recovery if clockwork is installed... might be wrong.
OK, when i rooted, I used a toolkit and told it to use twrp for backup. I installed clockworkmod as an app, and somehow managed to reboot into recovery in twrp as opposed to clockwork once. So how do I use twrp (which I like a bunch more) as opposed to clockwork?

fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
Note that you will need to change the last part to match the name of the file that you just downloaded. You will also need adb and fastboot for your computer.

Guys I am using stock rooted android 4.3 ROM with TWRP recovery (Probably 2.6.0.0). Now I want to upgrade it to Kitkat but I read you can't do it using TWRP recovery. Kindly guide me how can I switch it to CMW one? Thanks in Advance!

you can use twrp, just update to the newest version of twrp. you can flash recoveries via fastboot or an app called flashify.

You can flash s cwm touch zip file in twrp recovery and then reboot recovery and you will get the cwm touch recovery..:good:
Question - how did you get your first recovery on your phone. Its no different for the second one... You just have more choices on how to do it now thats all
its possible to flash within TWRP itself, but i chose to do it with fastbot command line and the recovery img. it just overwrites TWRP and you get CWM then
how to change cwm to twrp recovery pleas help

If you search you will also find flashable tarp zips that can be flashed in recovery. You flash it in cwm recovery, reboot to recovery, and you will now have twrp
Is it possible to flash zip update without having to flash miui first ?

Just flash stock miui rom.zip in recovery

i always do this to get back to miui and it works. By the way which rom are you currently on? and which recovery you use.explain everything.
Best way
1.fastboot Stock ROM
2.Root,Install Custom Recovery(i prefer flashify,take a backup of stock recovery)
3.Backup using custom recovery.(copy backup to PC/OTG,no need for 32GB cards)
4.flash desired rom.
5.Migrate data using Nandroid Manager/Titanium Backup.
6.If don't like ROM,restore stock from recovery.
7.if you dont want custom recovery too,restore from flashify
8.Unroot
Ta Da,Back to out of the box
Done
