[Q] ClockworkMod Recovery - HTC Incredible S

Hi guys,
I have ROOTed HTC Incredible S and some ROM from XDA. But I have old ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0. And I like ROM from Szezso. I try new ROM 4.4.4. and installing ROM was ok but if I install GApps there was some problem and installation was aborted. So my questions are:
1) Is CWM Recovery v5.0.2.0. good or is it there some better solution to flash ROM?
2) How can I install ROM or GApps otherway then through CWM?
I read about some 4ext but what it is?
Thx
Sorry for my English

I use CWM myself, don't remember exact version, but that shouldn't be a problem.
Some people, including myself, has had this gapps problem. Search the forums for pa-gapps and download the micro modular package. Works like a charm for me!
Good luck!

1. I like 4ext better, I have no issues with it
2. you can only install these through a recovery.
you can get 4ext from here
http://4ext.net/

I was using 4ext and now I'm using TWRP 2.6 and both of them works fine flashing szezso's vivokat
And for the gapps problem, actually it is not a problem. I received an error saying "failed to set metadata recursive", then I googled it, some topics said I can just ignore it and the gapps is actually in your device.

It is not the recovery..
Our system partition can't handle full gapps..
You can use Micro Gapps instead

It will work trust me!

[Q] Do I need to flash clockwork recovery with team hacksung's build?

Hi
I flashed team hacksung's build 16.
When I launch rom manger, it ask if I want to install clockwork recovery.
I thought it was already installed? Is it safe to proceed? My current recovery seems just fine.
You have to install it, if you want to download files with RomManager. Yes the CWM is already installed.
Sent from my SGH-I9000 using XDA App
So what will it install if I already have CWM?
Just tell the app you have version 3.x.x.x and it will be ok.
thanks but how do I do that?
In app -touch flash Clockworkmod recovery , select galaxy s mtd,it will tell you its not available for your device and ask you if you have installed yourself- touch yes then 3.x.x.x .
thanks worked fine

[Q] N7000 CWM Recovery Upgrade to Latest Version

Hi, i have installed SlimBean ROM on my Note and CWM Recovery 6.0.3.2.
I read on forums that for latest CyanogenMod 10.2 i need newer CWM Recovery(ccurrent version 6.0.3.8).
I search how to upgrade to latest CWM Recovery and i found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
And here is link for download latest version for N7000:
http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=25295#files
But i'm confused now, is on that link only CWM Recovery or is that Kernel with CWM?
Can i flash that file through current CWM Recovery (zip file) and get latest CWM Recovery Version?
Or can you tell me how to get latest CWMR Version.
I don't want use Custom ROM's based on Samsung firmware, i prefer CM based Custom ROM's (SlimBean and Bam Andorid),
so that's reason why i'm confused most about upgrading CWMR.
Thanks
You will have to use a kernel which has updated recovery.

Issue installing New Recovery

Hello folks,
I am trying to upgrade the CWM recovery from 6.0.3.6 to 6.0.4.3 to install KitKat.
However, when I try installing the zip file, the phone simply reboots from recovery during installation.
I tried ROM Manager too, but it couldn't install the latest recovery as well.
No luck with TWRP zip file as well
Anyone faced any such issue ? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

[Q] CM11 + CWM on GT-N7000

Hi Guys. short (and maybe dumb) question but i have to be sure before messing up the phone of my friend.
I would like to flash CM11 nightlies with clockworkmod on a Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000.
I have read several tutorials for flashing the GT-N7000 and i'm not sure which is the best way to do it.
It is neccesary to update or change the (current stock) kernel? Or is it possible to just copy the recovery and ROM to the SD card, boot into download mode, install from there?
Sorry i only have experience with flashing my HTC One X.
Thanks in advance,
Greetings
I am in the same possition. A friend of mine wants to help him install a custom rom to his n7000.
He has the stock samsung rom and the phone is LAGGY!!
I only have experience with flashing cm11 to my own galaxy s3 with philz touch recovery.
I am reading for 4 hours now and i am lost...
Should i only use TWRP?
but twrp has a version only for cm 10...(i havent found by searching any cm11 twrp version for n7000)
Should i use cm 10 then and all is ok??
Thanks a lot
I am reading things about installing kernel for recovery (philz touch)
After installing that, its just wipe data / cache and install Rom from Zip.
Im still bit confused about the rooting process -> Trough Zip or trough Odin.
I hope some1 can help me.
First you need root. Then you can flash a custom rom.
To root your device tgere a several ways possible. All written here in sticky threads.
Easy way via Philz Kernel. You will get custom recovery and root in in step. What Rom is currentky installed? Last five digits are enough.

Stock rom is currently installed. I uploaded a picture with the specs within an attachment
Search for XXLTA Kernel in PhilZ thread and flash this one. All written in PhilZ thread. After that take your new Rom an follow the instructions in the thread again. For CM 11 you need also Raw4 kernel first. Only after that flash the custom rom. But that's all written 100000 times here....

Yes i know, to install play store and other applications. But for the flashing part, that is enough right? The kernel, ROM and Philz Recovery?

yes that is enough but gapps are usually installed right after the ROM so having it together with the other files is a good idea.
- transfer ROM, Kernels to internal or external SD.
- flash Philz JB kernel compatible with your device [ follow the instruction in Philz kernel thread on how to flash with no yellow triangle ] and reboot then verify that root is working (just try and give a file explorer root access or install an app like root checker from playstore)
- Once root is verified reboot to recovery (you should now be in philz touch recovery) I recommend you take a nandroid backup but the choice is yours
- Wait for the backup to complete or if you are skipping backup then
a) wipe data factory reset
b) wipe cache
c) format system by going into mounts and storage
d) wipe dalvik cache
- flash raw kernel and reboot recovery.
- Now in TWRP recovery (you can again choose to do steps a to d which is totally optional) find and flash the ROM you want
- flash gapps
- reboot
That should do it
and now just in case you don't like what you flashed you can always go back to your ROM if you took a nandroid backup as suggested in the installation steps
hope it helps
Restore instructions :
I don't know if CWM recovery takes he same path to backup as Philz recovery but if it does it pretty simple
- just reboot to recovery and do the steps a to d from the above installation steps and restore backup
But in case you are not able to find backup file in CWM then do this
- reboot to recovery
- flash Philz kernel (same one you flashed during installation )
-go to advanced and select "reboot recovery"
- now you should be in Philz recovery again
- do steps from a to d again and restore
Simple

Very clear! Thank you very much. Sorry for being a noob with this but it i think you cant be too sure when you are flashing kernels. Got my Nexus S bricked once while i was flashing a custom kernel.
And i dont have any experience with flashing samsung phone. Only HTC.
Thanks again and have a good day!

I was in the same boat 2 years ago so i understand the situation I am glad i could help and if you are coming from nexus I am pretty sure you won't have any issues at all. Just one or two flashes and you will know everything
and who knows I might need your help one day as I am thinking of buying the N6 myself
oh and btw let me tell you that recovery and kernel are in the same partition for N7000 so you can't have "this kernel and that recovery" here as you would in other devices. Thus if you need a certain recovery then you have to flash a certain kernel and if you need a certain kernel then it will install the recovery that comes with it overwriting the previous one. Also even if you flash just recovery somehow, the device will restore the one with the kernel upon reboot
So yeah

In the guide below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53346482
it clearly says ''-Download Raw Kernel r5 and copy it to either your internal or external memory''
You have downloaded raw_kernel_r4_j43
Why is that?
Am i missing something?
My friend's n7000 runs on 4.1.2 as well and my goal is to install cm11 as well.
Saying that, which is the appropriate raw_kernel???
The kernel code name should match the currently installed TW rom (4.1.2) or should it match the CM11 rom you intend to flash (4.4.4)????
to answer my own question : In XxPixX's quide of course it says r5 so 4.4.4 )
Anyway the kernel that you have downloaded is neither r5 nor r1 (i beleive that r1 is for 4.1)
Thanks, i hope someone with more experiense would clarify that!!

yes you have to download raw kernel because CM 11 or Android Kitkat requires SE Linux compatible recovery and raw kernel is the one that has this compatibility.
If you skip raw kernel then installation will fail giving you "status 7 installation aborted" error.
Downloading the latest Raw kernel for KitKat should do it just read in the kernel thread and download the latest one for kk.
the kernel code name should match the ROM (4.1.2) the one you currently have. Download the philz JB kernel for your JB ROM(follow the steps given in philz kernel thread)
There is no requirement as such for 4.4.4 ROM

yes that should do it, download the k44 one
I haven't seen any videos about that but it is possible to do so but that's just using the recovery temporarily to flash a certain ROM but in the end that recovery is replaced by the ROMs kernel recovery its the same thing we are doing by using raw kernel here in these installation steps but its true that it gets a little confusing
I have updated my previous reply. Please refresh the page to see the explanation
