I managed to get root on my phone, but i had to flash stock kernel to make tv work and now i lost recovery. Is possible to get recovery without changing kernel or rom?
The easy way is by downloading ROM Manager from play store and flash clockworkMod recovery from there

That will do it, but the phone must be rooted.

Next time, fastboot erase cache is all you need to do. Flashing recovery is a quick fix if you don't have a computer nearby.

Hey, not sure if I'm in the right place or if i should be starting new thread. Please forgive me I'm new to this.
I tried flashing 4EXTRecovery to my Inc s all goes well and get told it has been flashed. When I enter recovery it still shows up as cwm recovery and no sighn of change. Not sure if I've done anything wrong. I'm rooted with unlocked boot loader with s-on maybe I need to be s-off.
Thanks

Try flashing the recovery from recovery
Get the recovery in img format from the 4ext site, put it in your fastboot folder and open a command window there, type "fastboot flash recovery (name).img
Okay I will have access to a PC in an 1 hour will let you know. Thanks :thumbup:

Hey mate, welcome to xda
Easiest way is to download the free updater from here:
http://4ext.net/
Then install it and select which recovery you want.
Or get the recovery .img and flash it via fastboot
But its super easy to just do it via the app I am not sure if you can on the unlocked bl though
Thanks buddy....:thumbup:

I installed 4ext touch recovery successfully but I faced a problem when i make a nandroid backup it makes the backup in a very short period of time so I am not sure if I can restore the backup I made
Because the backup file size is small
PS when I was on cwm, I used to face the people where the backup file size go over 900 Mbs or it says no enough space for backup
Any help would be appreciated

What does it say when you back up, and how big are your backups? Mine are all about 900mb, on 4EXT
I will check again and tell u

Mine back up @ 700mb + back up try restoring one, that way it will tell you if it works

Has any one tried using this app with their Inc S? How did it go?
I've installed it, loaded 3 roms (2 install from zip and 1 nandroid backup) and can't get any to boot. They all get stuck at the Splash screen.
I'm unlocked, S off, using Blackrose and have never had an issue installing those roms before.

I had it, but just for two rom. Do you selected install boot.IMG with?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda app-developers app
I just followed the on screen prompts. Install zip, so I then select the zip I wanted. And when I try to boot to that rom it does nothing.

A reason could be the blackrose hboot with the lip partition..
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda app-developers app
Do you know of any way to get it to work?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
For me it looks like ics is too unstable for that, it doesn't run on my device flawlessly. You could go back to a non Blackrose HBoot, flash a Rom who don't need blackrose and try it again

From my experience there is basically no difference.
If you must though I slightly prefer twrp.
ive been having issues with aroma installer locking up in twrp. not doing it in cwm touch. i normally prefer twrp but CWM for me for now.
Hi,
Is it true, that phones with a custom recovery don't get OTA updates?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
They don't get updares by the manufacturer but custom ROM get updated way faster. There are tools which can download these via OTA.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Well, I don't have a custom ROM, I just unlocked the bootloader of my HTC One and installed a custom recovery to get root.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
You can re-install stock recovery, which i believe will allow OTA updates again.
OK, I see. I used the all-in-one kit to unlock my phone and install a custom recovery. So I thought I could just flash the stock recovery using the kit as well... But where would I get the stock recovery?

Actually the phones with custom recovery still get OTA updates as long as still using stock ROM.

OK, thnx. So I'll have to wait and see if I get the 4.2.2 update.

Correct! But you still need stock recovery to install the update.
You are driving me crazy... So what good is it to receive the updates if I can't install them?
OK, so I still need stock recovery. So the question remains, how so I get the stock recovery?
