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

I am having the same issue, I was able to root it without any issues. Installed GooManager but the App itself is force closing or it get stucks in "Installing Recovery Image" when I reboot into recovery I still get the standard recovery and not TWRP.
Now my question is since I have SU, would it be easier to just get Rom Manager and install CWM then flash TWRP off of it? Any suggestions appreciated.

Sound like your last paragraph will work... Or just flash CWM through Odin then flash TWRP trough CWM.

That is what I did and it did the trick.
Try as I might, I just couldn't get mine to work through Goo manager either. Finally, flashed CWM through Odin, flashed TWRP zip for T879 through CWM and I was good to go.
Had the same troubles.. Finally got it installed by following the dd method on the teamwin page. OK, can't post a link but google "sgh-t879 twrp". They list several alternate methods of installation.
"Download - DD Method:
You can use adb or terminal emulator to install the following image:
...
adb push openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-sgh-879.img /sdcard
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.1-sgh-879.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22"
would someone point me to the step-by-step for this? I have odin running but it shows blue... I'll figure that out - what I need is how to get CWM loaded & running correctly.

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?
Plsss Help me guys!

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 installed cwm because i was having problems with twrp since 4.4, i have 4.4 installed now. but i was wanting to try another rom. so i flashed cwm and now my phone won't boot into recovery, any help?

Hello,
I have searched and didn't find TWRP custom recovery for GT-P1000.
The TWRP site doesn't support GT-P1000
I have rooted my device, and flashed CWM recovery.
I want to flash TWRP recovery instead using Odin or "install zip from sdcard"
Anyone can help me find this custom recovery.
Thanks
Well, you can get it automatically if you flash this Omni KK ROM on your CWM recovery, after that don't forget to flash SuperSU.zip
OMNI ROM ---> http://dl.omnirom.org/p1/
SUPERSU.ZIP ---> http://download.chainfire.eu/695/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.45.zip?retrieve_file=1

Hi, I've tried this but it just comes up with status 7 installation aborted error when flashing on CWM. '/tmp/updater.sh =0' 'E:error in /sdcard0/.../omni-4.4.4.....zip.
Any ideas on what to do?
Edit: Don't worry, I just had to flash the zip again to fix it

Hello everybody.
I was trying to install CyanogenMod 11.0 for Samsung Galaxy Mini 2 but after getting Status 7 error, I did some research and found out that I had to update the CWM to the newest one.
I updated it successfully from the old CWM and after restart it booted me into the new one. Than I rebooted the phone and since then, it started looping. It doesn't go into recovery mode. Only if I push Volume Down + home + Power, it goes into Download Mode.
I googled but I couldn't find anything that would help.
I'm inexperienced in die-hard tweaking on Android but I'm not a newbie in mobile phones (Proud ex owner of N900).
Please help and thank you in advance

One sure way to fix this is to go back to stock. You said that you can go to download mode. So use odin to flash stock.
Another way would be to use adb to get into recovery, but I don't know if you have access to adb.

Thank you very much, that helped, but am I now able to install CyanogenMod 11? If so, should I try the same routine or is there any boot-loop safe way to install it?
Thank you again.

I have never used cwm 6.0.4.7. I always used cwm 6.0.4.5 and I had no problem installing CM 11 with this. So what I suggest is:
-First flash cwm via odin (whatever version you find available).
-Then via cwm flash an update to cwm-6.0.4.5.
-Then wipe data/cache and /system.
-Flash cm11.
-(Perhaps flash gapps?)
-Reboot and enjoy (it will take a lot of a time to boot for first time so be patient)
Warning: While using cwm 6.0.3.2 avoid using option "reboot to recovery". This is what will get you stuck in a recovery bootloop.
After upgrating to 6.0.4.5 you should be ok.

first,Revive your phone from bootloop like @bleached said .. and after that maybe you want to redownload the CWM ?? or use other build ?? like version 6.0.3.3 ?? and after that flash the Update (CWM 6.0.4.5) ..

The problem was that upgrading from cwm 6.0.3.3 to 6.0.4.7 was causing the bootloop. I Just updated cwm to 6.0.4.5. Everthings fine now. Thanks for ur help. (Attempt)

It has internal SD mount problems, but not everyone has this problem. For some it just works fine.
Also I think that 6.0.4.7 also has the same problem.
Finally there is a 6.0.4.5 that I've uploaded that avoids mounting internal SD and only mounts external SD. Just for those who have mount problems and still want to install KitKat (because KitKat needs cwm 6.0.4.5 +)
thanks
