Download CWM here http://goo.im/devs/jcsullins/cmtouchpad/recovery/update-CWM6_tenderloin-20121215.zip and flash it with TWRP. It will delete TWRP for you and change your default recovery.

Flash fails. Ive updated my twrp and it still fails. Any help appreciated.

Extract the file from the zip. Copy it to /boot folder... you may have to go to boot folder and first change it to RW mode (you need Root Explorer to do this because Ive never had any luck with any free file explorer being able to write to the boot folder) and also delete the uimage.TWRP file in the boot folder to make room. Then open file calleded android.default.recovery and instead of TWRP change it to ClockworkMod

cdzo is right, your boot folder is probably full, give rom Toolbox lite a try. It does work once given root privileges

[Q] [Help!!] Recovery Menu Failure!

hi Guys,
I have di11i's ROM installed, 5.6 stripped, on a Samsung Captivate.
I installed ROM manager, flashed clockwork from there. Chose Galaxy S Captivate as my phone. (should I have chosen I9000??!!)
then I clicked boot into recovery, and in recovery menu, it said "signature verification failed" did not install multi-CSC thing, and got stuck there!!
I unsinstalled ROM manager....
would my recovery menu be ok now if I try again? (scared to try)
what went wrong??!
thank u for the support!
Hey Dude,
I'm guessing its coming up as 3e recovery? If so, you need to take the file I'm attaching, unzip it and place it in the /system/bin folder. Reboot and you should be set.
Just to be clear:
Unzip the file and place it on your phone.
Use root explorer.
Make file system RW
Copy the file to /system/bin
Reboot!
You should be all set from here.
What Phoenix said is right. Also, this doesn't belong in development

Another simple way to get into recovery mode, since you are already on di11i's ROM:
use the power menu, then select recovery ...

indeed, my concern is, did I screw up anything related to that by getting this error, or was that error only because of trying through ROM manager?

I have also just recently rooted my phone and what I did was download the .zip file for a theme and renamed it update.zip then put it onto my sd card, then went into recovery and installed the update.zip file then rebooted my phone and that worked just fine for me
Update.zip is how you get into Clockwork Recovery, so you definitely don't want to rename another file to that...
Boot into CWM by holding volume - volume + and power, select "apply:update.zip", then "install zip from sd", "select zip from sd", find the zip and install. Then reboot. Note: you need to be running a deodexed ROM in order for themes to work properly

Really, cuz that's what I did and I didn't have any problems, my phone is working just fine, and I can still get into recovery.
There is ABSOLUTELY no need to rename the file update.zip just put the file on your sdcard, get into recovery (easiest way is to hold down power and press recovery in the menu) click apply zip from SD, click the file and click install...done

if there are two files that i downloaded for a theme... such as META-INF and System, would i put them both in the same file when moving them to the SD card then just name the file something.zip? or would i only change the name of one of the two files? also am i able just to reboot into recovery from rom manager in order in install this file ?
to install a theme....
1. download it
2. put it on your sdcard (i make folders ie themes, roms, kernels)
3. boot into cwr
4. wipe cache (optional imo)
5. select install from sdcard
6. navigate to theme file
7. flash it
8. reboot
9. profit (optional)

Using rom manager is completely fine, I haven't tested it with the new recovery I've been using the shutdown menu but don't see.why it wouldn't work.
You don't have to extract any of those files from the zip just leave them in there, leave the zip on your sdcard and navigate to it through recovery. Its easier to put the zip in the root of your sdcard for easy access but if the zip is in downloads or something for whatever reason you can just click the downloads folder andthen the file then install.
Also after you install you might need to press your search button to go back a page then click reboot and you're good

For that we need custom recovery, like we had TWRP in GB. Developers are working on it, and soon we will have that. Meanwhile you can reflash whole firmware.
You can try to use zip file from Shaan's root. Just delete system/app, and system/bin, and put build.prop in system folder. But I am not sure if it will work this way.
I attached how I think it should work. If you got any more bootloops editing it, try it.
i cant,i dont have a pc,
i went to my frnd twice and flashed twice today,it feels bad to go to others house
all the time,
another guy sucessfully edit by solid explorer,

Maybe you better wait for custom recovery. With it would be lot easyer. You will have backup to restore.
I just tried it, it is not working because of signature.
Reboot phone In recovery mode, connect usb, run adb shell In PC:
su
mount -o remount system /system
cat /sdcard/build.prop > /system/build.prop
reboot
(Assuming u have a backup build.prop In /sdcard)

I did not try, but I think you can. Just make it CWM compatibile. I have empty zip that is compatibile with TWRP, but I do not know if it is compatibile with CWM. I will try it later.
will wait for you to test
build.zip

This CWM is buggy. When I press option install from SD - it refresh. I needed 3 times to push restart to get phone restarted. I am waiting for fully working CWM, and I will try then. I am not pushing my luck after problems with TWRP last time.
YES solid explorer works,
changed to S2,
RESOLVED
Use another .zip that extract things to system, if u replace files In the cwm zip it wont work because of the update-script inside

Man, you just saved my phone by this zip. Thank you
Hi, I know this is an old h thread but I'm pretty sure this will be handy to someone
Try this app for an easy way to make an update.zip It's still in beta but seems to be working fine on my N7100 so give it a go...

[Q] CWM Recovery Backup folder

Dear CWM team,
Since the 4.2.2 vision of Android in New hTC one has changed its internal sdcard folder to be sdcard/0/
Could you please revise the recovery for this?
I can't see the CWM backup folder on PC through MTP connecting because its in /sdcard instead of /sdcard/0/
I'm used to copying the backup files to PC in case my phone crash someday.
Now I can only use OTG method with Root Explorer or ADB command to copy them to my PC, and that's not convenient.
Hope you can take this into account.
Thank you very much.
Don't need OTG, just use a root explorer to copy the backup file to your data folder and then copy it from phone to PC

I knew this method, but it's not convenient, either.
Because I have to copy twice.
Now I found another Recovery "Philz Touch", which is based on CWM recovery, and it can change the default backup folder to be /sdcard/0/.
I flashed the 5.06.1 version, and it works fine.
Or, maybe, change recovery and go to TWRP
TWRP is another good choice
Thanks a lot !!

The CWM backup is located in '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' (from root) and is not visible from the pc.
Using ES file explorer or root explorer copy the folder in the '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' directory to '/data/media/0/' and then you'll be able to see it from your pc and copy across....... remember to delete the copy from '/data/media/0/' afterwards

Unfortunately, i do not have such directory path like you specified.
I installed Clockwork Rom Manager and it tells me the backup is in inaccesible area, path: Device: mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup
But the mnt/shell folder is empty and I cant find clockword folder. Any solution to this ?

No it can't be empty.... check your file explorer is root enabled, if you're using ES then settings>tools>root explorer
