I'm trying to install android on my friends touchpad.
Everything looks like it goes fine, but when I get to the bootloader, there is no option to boot into clockwork mod.
The other options like boot into webos and boot into cm9 are there, but not clockwork mod.
Any reason as to why?
And how to install it?
Or is there another way to install clockwork mod on a touchpad?

Did you have the CWM image file in your CMInstall folder when you fflashed with the AcmeInstaller2?
Or you could also install GooManager and install TWRP touch recovery from the GooManager app. Not sure if there is an official recovery that you could flash via ROM Manager...

You probably used the wrong clockworkmod zip file. I did the same thing the first time as well as many others. The file name should start with "recovery" and not "update." If your zip file starts with the word update, then find the other one. Its out there somewhere. And then just use ACMEinstaller to install that zip.
Im pretty sure thats right. I know there are two files out there and one doesnt work. I will have to make sure which one is the right one when I get home. Maybe I can upload it here.

I'm glad you got it. I would have probably forgot to get back to this thread. lol
i'm having the same issue, but i am using the recovery-clockwork-tenderloin-1012.zip file so it's not the update one but i still can't find it in moboot, though i am able to boot in to CM9
---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 AM ----------
Fixed
for some reason i needed to use the update version to make it work...
I also had this issue when using ACMEinstaller2, i placed the 'recovery-clockwork-tenderloin-1012.zip' in the cminstall folder. The installer worked fine with moboot and cm9 but not clockwork, when trying on clockwork the installer would just thrown out a message about not finding any files starting with 'update' and ending in '.zip' so following some advice from another thread i renamed the zip file 'update-cwm_tenderloin-1012.zip' redid the process and it worked. I hope this helps anyone else getting this problem.
I rooted my phone and installed CWM.
However rooting and installing roms are not for me. So I want to go back to my warranty.
How can I unroot and remove CWM and go back to my warranty, I still have 21 months of warranty period and I dont want to burn it
I found how to unroot, installing unroot file and setuping it like rooting but how to remove CWM.
Thx a lot
Taha
if you have a stock rom then flash it with Odin
else for unrooting first remove superuser app then busybox and sqlite3 then su and you will be unrooted
for going to stock recovery you will need its img and have to flash with odin
weird thing I only had superuser. after putting unroot.zip into my sdcard.
I turn off my device and go to the recovery - tadaaa CWM is gone.
What can cause this?
How I install CWM? Put the cwm into sd card and installed it via recovery menu.
Thx a lot

I found this file in this forum and looks like it did the job. I check with root checker and it says I'm not rooted.
But I'm confused about CWM. How it deleted itself. It deleted itself before unrooting process.
I don't have the answer
I guess flashing a stock firmware gives you the stock recovery. So its obvious that you'll lose CWM.

Google Search it. Go to your phone's settings>about>baseband version. Then Google search the baseband version and look for a download or a guide. Afterwards download the file and flash it with Odin.

I've seen one or two threads that were in the same vein as this, but no clear resolution. Every time I open SuperSU, I get the message, "The SU binary needs to be updated. Continue?" I select "Continue," and am given the message to install it normally or through TWRP/CWM. If I try through TWRP, the phone restarts into TWRP, but does nothing. If I select "Normal," I get the "Installation failed!" message. I tried uninstalling/reinstalling SuperSU, but that didn't do anything.
In a related problem, I only have root access pretty much immediately after I reboot. Only immediately after I restart the phone can I use apps like WiFi Tether or Titanium.
I'm on stock, rooted 4.1.2. Any help would be great, thanks!

Thanks for responding! Just to clarify, should I follow that readme file’s instructions, even though I’m already rooted and have TWRP? If simply choose “install” in TWRP and select this zip, will I have the option to just install SuperSU, or should I extract one of the following 3 zips in that file first?
SuperSU-v1.41.zip
superuser.zip
Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip
I assume this won’t wipe my phone, but of course, I’ll do a nandroid backup first.
Well, I went into TWRP, went to "install," and selected the whole .zip, but it didn't look like it was going to give me the option to flash just SuperSU.
Agh... I should do this stuff more often so I'm not so clueless each time I need to do stuff in recovery...
SOLVED!
I figured I just needed one of those SuperSU zips found in the file linked above, but first, I decided to first see if there was a more up-to-date version. I wound up downloading the updated version from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
After flashing "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.41.zip" in TWRP, my root access is much more robust (i.e., not losing root after one app successfully requests access) and I am no longer being prompted to update my binaries!
Thanks again!
SuperSU

Glad U got it working. I on the other hand am hosed. I wish the thing worked like everything else. I consider this to be a near
fatal weakness with the product. I at this point won't update until I get a clear understanding of what the heck is up with it.
Also Kyocera does not seem to be well supported. I got a Kyocera Hydro from a family member who was going to throw it
away. Guess I should have let him

not updating
Hi, I'm here about SuperSU not updating, but I have a normal rom, not TWRP or thecother one. Every time I go on SuperSU, it tells me there's an update. I click continue, then Normal, because that's the rom I have, but then it says the update failed. What do I do? Please help!

TWRP is a recovery not a ROM. If Normal doesn't work, select the other one. Assuming you have a custom recovery (I recommend TWRP for this phone), it should restart into recovery and flash the update there.
Hello, im new here and if you can please answer me on German
My problem is when i start to update SuperSU Binary it is failing on Normal mode and TWRP is happening nothing.
When i rooted first everything was glad, but there was no button to update the Binary and when i used apps like Xmodgames it says, my root is maybe no succesfull, so i rooted again without deinstalling the SuperSU blabla. And now is nothing working, if i go in Root Checker it cant find my root. Pls Help, sry for bad Grammar etc.
still have the problem
I did the flashing of the latest su update zip on my recovery reboit and ny supersu still prompts me to update binary just like before...HELP!!
my samsung galaxy s duos 2 is not updating binary in any modes
what should i do please help me
Is there any other way to update the binary other than through TWRP or CWM. I can't for the life of me find a CWM or TWRP recovery for my Hannspree Titan.
Hey guys, I have a problem here...
I had rooted my tablet and installed SuperSU, I choose the normal mode for binary update but it said it failed. Then I tried in TWRP/CWM but it just restarted my tablet and there it stayed.
When I power it on, it just keeps restarting every 5-7 seconds and it doesn't do anything else.
What should I do?
I'm new to this guys. A quick run down is this.
Downloaded rom manager pro, root explorer,titanium back up and mobile odin pro. Along with the relevant cf root file zip and followed instructions.
Rooted s3 no problem.
Uninstalled and then re installed superSU through play store. No problem.
Through rom manager, made a back up through TWRP.
Flashed the galaxy project onto phone no problem.
Now superSU is saying i need the SU binary installed.
Rom manager can't find any back ups. Root checker is saying that my phone is not rooted which explains why titanium back up isn't able to do anything.
So now i'm thinking lets start fresh...go back to odin and re root. Well Odin CANNOT see my phone in download mode. Only when the phone is in normal operating mode it can be seen which is really weird. When i went into settings to look at <about device> i can no longer see the imei number or whatever it was. Not even sure if thats normal.
So.....What have i done wrong?? and how am i able to salvage this?
Can anyone help??

sorry to be a pain mate but odin is not recognising my phone when in download mode. Not sure but i think this is a soft brick?
If your trying to fix supersu you can flash that zip in TWRP. I'm not sure how to fix Odin problems.

Hey, my friends of the L90 Discussion Forums.
I know there was already a previously made text guide for this, but since some people like visuals, I made a quick video tutorial for it.
All the instructions and download links are in the description of the video. I'll paste them here just if you are too lazy to get the YouTube video open from the YouTube site.
Here's the video:
(Sorry for any wording mess-ups I made. I'm a better script/speech writer than I am a presenter.)

I did not originally come up with how to get the bootloader. Credit to Quarx from XDA and his friends at 4pda.ru.
Ok, So, here are the instructions if you did not find it clear enough from the video, and got your **** stuck in a ceiling fan:
Requirements:
1. Root (Use Towelroot)
2. Terminal app (I used an app called Android Tuner Pro. Remember to enable SU when installing Recovery and rebooting or it may not work)
3. twrp.img - http://bit.ly/1IZ2BRn - download from google drive
Instructions:
1. Ensure that your phone is rooted.
2. Download and move twrp.img to internal sdcard (/sdcard)
3. Open up terminal app, ENSURE THAT YOU HAVE SU ENABLED, and type in this command:
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17
3.5. If the command works, it should take a few seconds and it will say "11 MB has been transferred in so and so seconds"
4. After that, type in:
reboot recovery
It should then reboot into the newly installed TWRP recovery. Wait now, Why isn't anything working when I touch it? Well, TWRP has a small error that doesn't recognize touches the first time around, so wait till the screen times out after 60 seconds, turn the screen back on, and unlock. Then it should be usable. Remember to change the screen timeout to 15 if you don't want to wait.
There you go, that should be about it.
Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not take responsibility for damage done to your phone. You do this at your own risk.

That's a good video. Thanks for taking the time out to make it. Do you know where I can find towelroot? I tried www.towelroot.com, but it said that there were problems with the security certificate. I can't find it in the play store either.

Can I flash CM11 using TWRP after installing TWRP using this method, ? Is there a way to access TWRP Recovery by pressing a combination of buttons when the phone is rebooting? I tried to load TWRP Recovery by turning off the phone then pressing the volume down button and the power button, but I got the factory hard reset instead. I didn't do the factory data reset.

I have not tried flashing any ROMs or anything yet on it.
Also, I found a key combination, which is exactly the one you said. Problem is, the guide I read it from said you need to go through with the Erase Phone and whatever, and then it will load your recovery, but I'm not risking what I've done so far just to try to get into Recovery.
Instead, I made a small app that uses the Shell and Root to simply perform a reboot into Recovery by the press of a button.

I followed a video on youtube on how to flash recovery for the LG 3. I did the combination of volume down and power button and selected the factory data reset and it loaded TWRP. It looked like the stock factory data reset prompts until it loaded TWRP. It didn't erase anything. What does the .apk do that you posted?

There's just a button in the middle of the screen that says "Boot into Recovery".
It requests Superuser so that it can run the shell command "reboot recovery".
Screenshots attached. (Also, uploaded it to the Play Store, will be up in a few hours)

Is it possible to switch to another Superuser app? I don't think I saw any support for this Superuser app from ChainsDD when I installed it. The only thing that interests me is that it has OTA Survival. I guess that means it will survive an OTA update.

Yeah, I do believe there should be, mostly, ability to switch root apps.
Is it safe to flash CM11 once you have recovery? Would that take erase towel root and root access somehow and then TWRP along with it? Or would TWRP recovery survive?
I am unsure. I am the kind of guy that enjoys Stock so I've never bothered to flash anything. Best off asking someone who is a heavy flasher and active user.

Towel root is only used for the rooting process, it can be deleted once you install supersu and busybox, or like you want flash a custom rom, any thing is safe oto do once you have a custom recovery as long as you follow op's directions on flashing their rom. Always read directions and as much info as can first. Recovery will always be safe unless you flash a kdz with lg flash tool which is used to completely return to stock, recovery, system and all. Also always back up while in recovery before flashing. Its always good to have back up stock rom, or any roms you like in case you decide to switch back or between them.

What does busybox do? I installed it and every time I open the app it says "Smart Install is loading ...You may go ahead and install Busybox or wait for Smart Install to finish loading". There are boxes to tick under "Smart Install" that can only be used in the PRO edition. The boxes are: "Enable Smart Install", "Replace All (Symlinks all)", and "Clean Mode". I don't know what these options do, but from the reviews I've read the PRO edition can break WIFI and even break the phone. If I do buy the PRO edition, and I flash CM11, it would wipe out the app. Would I have to buy it all over again from the play store?

Just open the app and click install once rooted and supersu binarys are install. Rooted apps use the commands and things busy box installs to run. Never had an issue with it, like said just hit install and leave the app on the phone for updates. When you install a custom rom they're s already built in, really only use for rooting the stock rom.
