I'm about to update my wife's i9000, but I wanted to make sure it had the latest available recovery on it. I did a search over at TWRP, but it doesn't look like they have a recovery for the i9000. I checked out the CWM website, and they're showing 2.5.1.2 as their latest offering.
I searched through the development forum for "TWRP", "CWM" and "Recovery"...and I didn't (easily) find what I was looking for.
I checked the recovery currently installed on the phone, and it's showing CWMP Touch 5.5.0.4. Is this the latest available for this phone?
I must not be on the latest...I just got a Status 7 error.

Perhaps I'm just confused, but the newest I see available for the Nexus One is version 1.6. When I reboot my phone into recovery, it says clockworkmod recovery version 2.5.x (can't remember exact version). What gives?
Current version is 2.5.1
@ninjai117, if you are referring to version mentioned in the forum post... it's very old and has not been updated... the actual current version of Clockwork recovery is 2.5.1.0 though there is also a test version 2.5.1.4...
I have successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note, but it still doesn't have CWM installed. So I downloaded Rom Manager from the market, and tried to flash CWM from there. However the "Confirm Phone Model" dialog does not list the Galaxy Note I attached a screenshot of the choices.
Which do I pick? Or should I install CWM the long way?
Saw this thread, proceeding to this thread. Long method it is~
^^
Yes U R on right track
I have the same problem, I was able to ROOT and install CWM (I have version 5.0.2.7) using the instructions in this post. But I cannot do a ROM Backup with ROM Manager because it does not recognize the Recovery as valid one, I can boot into recovery from ROM Manager but I cannot do a Backup, I tried with the Manual Flash Overdrive option in ROM Manager and did not work, please any suggestion how to make ROM Manager recognize CMW that was manually installed ?, thanks
i have the same issue with my Neo V. i installed CMW manually and wanted to do rom backups so that i can flash a new rom. unfortunately the rom manager im using wont allow me to backup telling me to install CMW which is redundant cause i already have CMW installed. and worse is its asking me to chose phone models where my phone models is not even supported. how do i get over these??? arent there any rom manager updates?
ROM manager is not supported to Note
Just open CWM applicayion, you will find backup option there only.
Hi,
first of all: My Galaxy S is just a "play phone" for me. Some time ago I tried to install CMW touch (or however it is called) but somehow it didn't work. Due to lack of time I didn't took a deeper look into it.
Now - as I am having a little more time - I want to bring TWRP onto my old charm.
Currently I am running CWM recovery v6.0.3.3 and an AOKP build from July 22nd (Android 4.2.2).
Is there even a TWRP version for the Galaxy S I9000 running on 4.2.2?
Using Goo Manager or the TWRP Manager I just see that there is no TWRP for my device - which is not true as I've read that there is a version for I9000 in several threads/forums.
Best regards,
Manuel

Hello everyone;
I'm all new to this rooting and flashing thing, and I've been reading lots of tutorials and wikis, but still some questions remain:
1. I have a carrier-unlocked i9305t (It came with carrier software and the carrier logo shows up everytime I start the phone, but it is unlocked to any sim-card in my country). Should I flash the device to CyanogenMOD 11 (which is available for i9305, not i9305t), would my phone brick? Or, in other words, what are the main differences between i9305 and i9305t and can I install a custom ROM for i9305 in i9305t?
2. What's the difference between rooting and installing a custom recovery (such as TWRP)? Will installing a custom recovery give me root acces to my phone?
[edit] 2.1. So I've found that I can root my phone through a custom recovery by flashing a SuperSu (super user) file on it. Where can I find a safe SuperSu file for i9305t?
3. I've found this tutorial (can't post the link thanks to forum rules, sorry!) for installing CyanogenMOD 11 in i9305 in which there's no mention to rooting the device: the process consists of installing a custom recovery in the phone and, from there, flash the CyanogenMOD 11 ROM. Is this correct and safe?
Then again, thanks for the help and sorry for the bad english, I'm not a native speaker.
Cheers!
You can flash any i9305 tom on your phone. The t just has to do with the frequency bands your phone uses. All you need to do is flash a custom recovery. Root is included in cm 11 so you only need to flash that

I just got a i9305T too, rooted, downloaded latest CM 11 nightly, when tried to intall zip it gave me Status 7 error, something about my device being a 'm0' and so not compartible.
I somehow wiped the stock system and can't mount USB with the TWRP... Now I'm downloading things so I can flash the stock and get back to square one.
What's going on and what can I do? Will I always have the latest CM Roms? Otherwise I'm somehow giving up this phone. Please help me.

I am a CM i9305T user here. For me, TWRP gives me error codes but then changing to ClockWorkMod recovery (latest version) solved error code 7. I used everything for i9305 for my i9305T phone and I have no problems. Try installing ClockWorkMod and flash CM + GApps.:laugh:

I have an I9305T running CM11, I found I had to use the TWRP for the I9305, as the one for the I9305T (which is not yet updated to 2.7) did not allow me to flash CM. CM works fine for me, and I flashed the modem.bin that I extracted out of the latest 4.3 update from Telstra (Aus) which gives me the same LTE network speeds as I was getting on stock.
1. No you will not brick your phone... difference between 9305 and 9305T is in the frequencies that the phone uses to connect to your mobile operator...95% is the same for all..but for a few countries is not...they use different frequencies to connect the phone to the network...so samsung releases a version of the phone with T at the end.
2. A custom recovery is for installing new ROMs on the phone...installing new mods...and stuff...you have access to internal parts of the device... it has a interface with different option....combo to access it: volume up+home+power
I recommend CWM recovery.
Root access is like administrator on windows...by default you can't access system files on your phone and other stuff...for safety reasons...rooting your phone enables access to that stuff...but if you are a newbie better not to root.
2.1 Here is the package: download.chainfire.eu/supersu - but at the moment i'm writing this the site is dowm.
3. Yes...the order of installing CM11 is:
a) Back-up first in case of failure - i don't do this cause it takes a lot of time and i don't have anything important on the phone...i use cloud storage.
b) Install custom recovery and enter custom recovery
c) do a full wipe - factory reset + cache partition + dalvik cache
d) install ROM
e) install GApps.
Every ROM has it's own install instructions...just follow them.
Where can i download the latest CWM Recovery for CM12?
I just finished installing Official Cyanogenmod 12 (CM12) but i just realised i can't get into recovery coming from CM11 there must be a new version kicking around somewhere for CM12 for Xperia Z1, Iv'e tried searching on Google and XDA but i can't find a compatible CWM recovery to install to work as i know there compatibility issues...i'm on 5.02 Lollipop CM12 so i dunno what version of CMW recovery to try as it seems folk online like to say things are indeed the latest just to get views and hits by downloading there crapware
I hope someone here can help
there is no CWM but there are images to flash to get TWRP or Phil-Z (CWM with touch control)
