Hey guys I've rom FROYO.XWJPA with ROOT and I want install CWM recovery from Rom Manager. Then i click Flash cwm recovery the operation is successful, but then I try reboot to cwm recovery my phene have still samsung recovery... what is wrong?
I had the same problem. I solved it by flashing an update.zip of the CWM recovery from the Samsung recovery. It worked by flashing two times, first time didn't work ^^
Pretty sure that ROM manager doesn't actually flash the recovery the way you think. It just allows you to boot into it from within the app. Open ROM manager up and try booting into it from there.
Or just install a kernel that has a built in CWM recovery.
Problem solved
I have installed both recovery program's, twrp and cwm 6.0.4.5. Now I want to keep only the twrp. How can I remove the cwm 6.0.4.5?
Evening guys,
so 2 days ago I flashed the Philz Recovery for testing. While I had the recovery on I flashed the latest Nightly of the Slim Kat Rom + Cyodak Kernel also for testing.
Ofc I backed up my files be4 doing so. Today I just recovered my backup, went to recovery again but the Philz recovery was still there. '''kk no prob i thought,
just flash the CWM Touch recovery again'' so I did, rebooted back into recovery mode and what happened? Instead of booting into the cwm recovery, there's
still the philz recovery. While in philz on the bottom left it shows "Philz Touch 6.48.4 and ClockworkMod v6.0.5.0" So no Idea what to do and it gets frustrating tho..
Thx in advance .
You didn't flash CWM again, or not properly, unless you wouldn't have PhilZ still.
well there's nothing much I could do wrong. Reboot into Recovery -> Install Zip from ext. SD -> choose the CWM Recovery -> Install -> Reboot into Recovery and CWM should be there right?
Also i've tried to restore the backup which I made be4 installing the Philz recovery. Backup was a success but once i'll boot into recovery it's the philz recovery again.
Backups do not contain recovery.
rly? Cuz my backup backups also the boot.img + the recovery. Anyway what am I going to do now? I've tried several ways, even flashing the TWRP as a zip, flashing via flashify or Rom Manager, no matter what I do I always end up in the philz recovery even when it says flash successfull.

You can use fastboot to flash recovery.
I had CM11 And cwm 6.4.5 for a few years And every thing was OK
A month ago I noticed that I cant select anything in cwm
So I tried to re-flash it but it did not help so I used the 6.4.4 touch version and still it does not work.
So now I have a phone with no recovery.
can flash from the room manger app
but I need a working recovery.
thank you
Fixed
Two questions, adam:
1. Where did you get CWM 6.4.5 (I cannot find any download source)
2. How did you fix it (in case someone else encounters the same issue)?
Guess if 1) is no longer available, I'll have to switch to TWRP to install LP/MM on the P880
Sorry it was 6.0.4.4

And my digitizer was messed up so after fixing it the recovery worked with no problem.
Hello,
I tried upload kernel with TWRP recovery to my phone (i had CWM) following tutorial on cyan wiki wiki.cyanogenmod. org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd
I did everything, after instalation i took out battery (every combination of buttons was booting phone normally), went to recovery and i still have CMW not TWRP. Why is that?
How can i install TWRP on this phone? On the official site there is no i9000
