I take absolutely no credit for TWRP 2.0. Go thank TeamWin here: http://teamw.in/project/twrp2
I also would like to thank Shabbypenguin for helping.
I have taken TWRP 2.0 and made it into a flashable zip through your custom recovery (CWM etc.)

By the way. 2.0 does not see the older nandroid backups to restore. It created a separate folder for new backup. Does that mean that it is not compatible with older nandroids?

Hm. Awesome then. Somehow didn't get that build in my test builds.
Phlash-made-themes would have been released had my gtab not softbricked and my evo would take any build of anything through fastboot. maybe linked to a batched unrevoked before i got the evo.
So me botching that all up, lead to no built in phlash themes with RC0
I'll get ya on the next one.
Touch screen recovery? No vol-/+ nonsense? yes please.
Thanks qbking. I was hoping someone would make a zip to flash. My adb is fubar so I have been sitting on the sidelines..just flashed it and its there. Now I will try flashing something and making a backup

I put all those lines of code in a batch file, included 3 recoveries, adb and fastboot all in one place . One click is easier than typing out all that code and may be more simple for newer or less experienced users. I hope I've answered your question.

Why not just do it in cwm recovery. A few clicks and you have a recovery back on your device.

I'm not sure how you would flash a different recovery from recovery mode as you need to do that from fastboot. If all you want is classic Clockworkmod recovery than you don't need these switchers. I've made batch files for the new touch version of CWM and RZ recovery, as well as the classic CWM recovery.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
Ibleedandroid, Thank you for the file for the touch CWM. I have been wanting this since i'd first seen it in the portal a couple weeks back or maybe not even that long. All touch recoverys rock and since the twrp2.0 stopped working on my phone I was pist. It kept erroring out when backign up my boot partition. But ever other recovery works fine. Thanks for this gem man it works great. And your flashing tool I give a 5 stars too man very nice indeed.

It's not compatible with some programs like rom manager and titanium backup, but can be "injected" into all ROM setups. I stick with CWM because I love the way I can name my own nandroids from rom manager. That's a deal breaker for me if I can't.
I use TWRP on my Kindle because that was the method at the time. Like mentioned before you cannot rename your backups which can get really confusing. I see no need to use TWRP over CWM, and personally wouldn't use it if you had CWM already installed. It would be like taking a giant step backwards IMPO.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I use TWRP mainly because it's easier to navigate.

You can go into /sdcard/TWRP/backups/(ur serial number) and there will be a file folder that contains your backup all you have to do is rename it

Twrp is interactive, newer, a little easier to use as it is more straightforward.

If you rename a TWRP backup file TWRP will no longer have the ability to locate it. Or at least this was the case on my Kindle using the method described above.

Sent from my SGH-T989D using xda premium
Ugh, don't listen to any of these guys. Anyone with issues on either recovery simply don't know how to use them. Best advice I can give you is to NOT USE THE DARKSIDE CACHE OR SUPERWIPE with CWM 6.0.x.x.
They break your CWM installation. Other than that I feel the same way you do. TWRP is great but I'm just used to CWM and prefer it. It's been on all 6 android devices I've owned and I trust it. Hard to break old habits!
Also, use the steps in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926754 to flash your ROMs. Should be smooth sailing. Either I'm lucky and my phone is perfect or my flashing method is key but I never have any issues with any ROMs that aren't already established by the original ROM developer.

Funny thing is when the Evo came out we all used AmonRA and that was the recovery to have and I must admit it neva eva eva eva caused me a problem. Clockwork was the bad stepchild over there so I stayed away from it.

cwm 10.1?? Think you may be confused with the CM 10.1 rom. There is no such version for CWM recovery but if you still face issues there even on the latest version then try moving to the latest TWRP and it should run through fine.

TWRP is always recommended but it's all about personal preference. If you want my opinion I think TWRP is indeed better. It's got a much better UI and a lot easier to navigate, not to mention it's all touchscreen based.

Keep in mind that nandroids are recovery dependant so your current CWM backups will not be compatible with TWRP and same vice versa. If you're worried abput losing your backups what you could do is restore any CWM backup then flash TWRP and backup that ROM you had restored over to TWRP. You can do the same to all your CWM backups if you have any more but that'll take you quite a bit of time to do lol.

Hi I also tried to install PACMan rom in Galaxy R through TWRP latest version. It says
1. No cheksum files found.
2. Assert failed.
Then some conditions are being checked to identify the device name. That's why the assertion failed.
we all know that we can flash roms from the i9505 forums by now, but i havent seen anything about flashing recoveries from their forums. is it safe? i saw philz touch recovery over there and it seems pretty awesome
Was wondering the same rging

bump, just need a yes or no
I tired it, but I couldn't get it to actually boot into recovery. Reverted back to CWM touch for now.
I sincerely apologize, I had previously tested an older version about a week ago. This older version was unable to boot into recovery.
Just tested with the latest release and it was able to install with no issues and boot into recovery. Looks like the newest version is indeed working on the T-Mobile variant. This was also confirmed in the i9505 thread by another T-Mobile user as well.
