NANDROID ? Don't use stock recovery. Don't make nandroid backup for stock rom.
so how should i flash cwm recovery .
and which recovery is best suited for nandroid backups and comptability with all apps.
does it necessarily require me to install custom roms.

I am in same situation with a GT-S5570, it has stock rom and is rooted. I downloaded Clockwork Manager to it's SD card.
Then from stock Recovery manager I tried to install CWM from sd card. The screen got distorted and graphic looked awful.
Had to reboot and nothing got installed.
Tried Odin but it won't recognize my phone while in Downloading mode.
I want to install Cyanogenmod 10.1 Android 4.2........any ideas? I guess I need somekind of backup first, if I mess up and need to reinstall stock? Hard to do with stock recovery mode though.

To make it detect in odin you need drivers... install those by installing kies.... flash CWM from stock recovery only and not by using rom manager....

Apps can always be reinstalled in no time I think, problem is I can't install CWM from stock recovery, when selecting update from sd/zip or whatever it says, I pick the CWM file on my SD-card.
Then the graphic gets messed up and I can no longer see the menu clear.

before you flash cwm make sure its in the root directory of your sdcard... . So to say sd root is to say the topmost folder on the sdcard, which is just on the sd and not in a folder.
without getting odin recognize your Mobile you should not flash anything as if you get in any trouble it would be easy for you to flash the stock rom
and best and safest method to flash cwmr is to flash it through odin
you cannot backup stock rom with cwm recovery only custom one's can be backed up
to backup apps and data you should use titanium backup

I eventually entered recovery mode, and flashed the CM 10.1 again, and it worked, but if you say I must try a kernel with CWM, how exactly do I do that?
Can you link me a good kernel (stable.. better battery life<<sorry I'm noob :laugh, and also link me to a guide on how to install/flash a kernel? because I've never tried a different kernel, so I have no idea how to install a new kernel, Thanks!
**I have another question cyclops : If you flash a kernel, and then you change rom, will this rom remove the previously flashed kernel? or the kernel I manually installed will remain?

Like I mention in every one of these threads, Status 7 is, at least 99% of the time, a bad download. Redownload and verify the MD5 checksum.
The MD5 for the official nightly is "513639551c586888db38bc9b17c7dab2". Use this program to verify the MD5 checksum.

Thank you. I just flashed that recovery and it worked.
I'm having the same problem with every single 4.4 and 4.4.x rom. I've tried removing the lines of code method already, running 6.0.2.8 cwm

4.4 needs the latest CWM to install. Try using Philz Touch Recovery or install the latest img from the Clockwork website.
I don't know if any of you guys solved your issues but you need to download cm11 onto external SD card then download philz touch version of cwm also on ESD card. Flash philz touch in your already existing cwm whatever version that may be. I forgot if it will boot back into recovery automatically but get back into recovery. If you are soft bricked get back in recovery by holding the power and vol up button I think and just flash rom as normal wipe data/cache/dalvik etc. That's how fixed my status 7 and flashed OSE 4.4.2 and loving it. Hope I helped.

Nah, it's the dual core technology right before the animation for the startup. I posted a thread about the problem.

Try flashing Phil's Recovery, it should be version 6.0.4.5. Once I flashed Phil's I have not had a failed flash of any 4.4 Rom.
Here is the link in case you need it.

Some s3 mini's can't change the recovery, it means, if you flash any recovery, your phone will go back automatically to stock recovery. You have to root your phone (example with vroot) and flash a custom recovery manually on your phone with "ROM Manager" or "[ROOT]Recovery Tools - flasher" (you can get both apps on Google play)
