Hi,
i have some questions in cwm.
Last year i used a cwm 5 to flash some cm7.2. Last month i tried to flash cm11.
Therefor i used cwm6.
After all i want to go back, and tried to restore my backup. But this does not work. - restore aborted
Is this why i use cwm6 and make the backup with cwm5 ?
And can i easily change cwm to restore my cm7.2 backup ?

Yes, it is because you made the backup using CWM 5 so you cannot restore it with CWM 6. Your only solution now is to install the stock rom back using odin through Download Mode and then install root and CWM 5. Once CWM 5 is installed back, you can restore your previous backup. Hope I Helped
I have to install stock with Odin ?
Is there no chance to reinstall cwm5 ?

Sadly, you can't install CWM 5 from CWM 6. So flashing stock is the only good option.
OK thanks, :crying:

Exactly which CWM 6 version are you using?
I've actually used mobile Odin and flashed cwm 5 back.

Mobile Odin is an AMAZING APP ...but... AFAIK with CWM 6.0.4.7 you can go back to CWM 5.0.2.6 :good: so just flash it
Yes sir it is. And yes if the app will install you can get back to cwm 5 using it. That's how I found it lol. I had problems installing it on an omni build from last month though.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
BTW @alex_is_the_1 you don't need Mobile Odin to flash it, just a Terminal Emulator/ ADB
EASY GUIDE TO GO BACK FROM CWM 6.x TO CWM 5.x
1. Extract the image file from [url="dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.com/7/4/3/3/3/3/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip?key=6roq9AjWknQHZSzHyGtAbQ&ts=1402611881]CWM 5.0.2.6 FIXED.zip[/URL] (recovery.img) and put it in your sdcard's root directory.
2. Use the Terminal app (CM11) [optional download and install Terminal Emulator (from Play Store)]
3. Open it and type the following code (running Android 4.4.x)
Code:
su
flash_image recoveryonly /storage/sdcard0/recovery.img
It should work correctly and you'll get CWM 5.0.2.6 Fixed as recovery :good:
Thank you all for these Tips.
After this infoermation I've tried to install psx-recovery-0.3.6-touchscreen
directly via CWM 6 and this works too :highfive:
thanks

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.

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
Dear Community, greetings.
I have a problem as wrote in the title: I can't boot into cwm recovery. I am gonna try to summarize the main points that lead me here.
Assumption
I used to install custom ROMS flawlessy, following always the instruction etc...
Last rom I've installed was CM7.2 Apocalypse, Project Silk and Link2SD
I needed to restore stock rom
I searched with Google and came across the following solutions
I searched on XDA and came across the following solutions
What I have done...
I flashed using odin 4.38 -> GB 2.3.6 2012 October 2.3.6 S5830XWKTS S5830ITVKT2 downloaded from sammobile.com
I rooted the phone with upd_1.zip (that is attached to this thread)
I tried to install recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace-fix.zip
...and trying to boot into recovery pushing POWER BT + HOME BT the phone stucks on the screen with "Galaxy GT-S5830" and the top-left corner was green
What I have done #2
I tried to use S5830XXKA6 but I dind't neither managed to boot properly (wiped data/factory and cache)
Tried to flash CWM directly with Odin using "One Package"
Could you kindly help me out?:fingers-crossed: I am also willing to give you further information as you ask.
Thanks everyone for your time.:good:
F.
---- PARTIAL FIX by myself ----
1. Format the sdcard in linux with GParted (you need to install android-tools-adb, android-tools-fastboot)
2. Flashed stock firmware S5830XWKTS S5830ITVKT2 with ODIN Multidownloader 4.38 (downloadeble from www.sammobile.com under ITALY)
3. Rooted with upd_1.apk and updated with Superuser 3.0 (attached)
4. Installed CWM 6.0.1.4
5. Restore an old backup of mine.

First of all, thank you very much for the reply. Then, the answer is yes and no. I flashed several firmwares. Some of them did work, others don't. Right now I managed to use the one I've mentioned before and
S5830XWKT7_S5830ITVKT1_ITV
S5830XWKP6_XWKPN
but trying S5830_XXKA6 it goes in bootloop also wiping data and cache.
Further information:
I noticed a problem with CSC. While booting in standard recovery an error message appeared saying something like "can't open /system/csc/XEU/system", so I've created the whole directory path and put the files that were in /system/csc inside. This issue is fixed. I am going to investigate and let you know if with other firmware I listed above I get the same behaviour.

you can flash twrp and it will replace cwm and vice versa.
i changed from twrp to cwm only by flashing it over, because twrp caues problems (backups were damaged or not recognized - never had such problems with cwm).

They both work fine, but I prefer TWRP for more advanced features.
Did you by any chance rename your backup-folders with spaces in them?
That would explain why they weren't found by recovery.

Hey guys,
I have s3 mini. I wanted to flash 4.4 Kitkat on my phone. I needed to use TWRP recovery for that. So I removed ClockworkMod & installed TWRP.
Now,the problem is I have my stock rom(4.1.2) backed up using rom manager in ClockworkMod.
I tried installing ClockworkMod recovery using TWRP, but still TWRP recovery appears.
Is there anyway I can get ClockworkMod Back?

I think you need to use the same version of cwm that you used to take the backup. Example, if you did a backup with cwm 6.0.2.7 you only can restore it with cwm 6.0.2.7 not work with 6.0.2.8, I think, got it!?!

I did the backup with 6.0.2.7. When I backup it says md5 dispatch. I have another backup saved in my computer. I copied it into the phone but no recogonized by rom manager. Is there any other way?
I meant when i restore it says md5 dispatch.
Or delete the checksum file so it will skip that

hello,
try this:
1. CWM flashes with your back up when you reboot freezes at startup because it finds the data folder or another (can not remember which) I think.
2. Then reboot into recovery again
3. flash back your backup again.
i had a rooted galaxy ace gt_s5830 running gingerbread on which i tried to flash (several) cwm roms. obviously, this didn't work. (the first one was for the gt s5830i, and i don't remember why the others failed)
i did do a cwm backup beforehand and performed a recovery that listed as successful.
so when i select restore to that recovery i would assume that the phone would reboot and return it to it's previous state, but the phone just reboots to the same android recovery screen.
is there a problem or am i not doing something correctly?
thanx for any assitance, ed

i installed the CWMAce.zip (see attached file) on my sd card, performed a backup which is also on the sd card
( screenshot of the CWM backup that i made)
i presume that i made the backup, and then "wiped data/factory reset" after the backup was listed as successful. i did not wipe delvik cache. then tried to install a custom rom that was listed for gt s5830 but failed in "android recovery window" because it was for gt s5830i. i have since downloaded other custom roms none of which have worked either.
i have now added Concept-L-1.0.Cooper.zip (Dev-Host, 102 MB) to my sd card from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/s5830-develop/gb-2-3-6-concept-l-rom-andoid-l-gt-s5830-t2807829
would you please explain the correct way to attempt to install? thanx

there are a few roms to give you an L flavour, and also 1 for Marshmallow look-alike experience.
look in "rom dev" threads.
Use PC and adb
try adb reboot in command prompt
