Yes i did. It is free to download from the cwm website (manual install)or a paid app on market which can be installed via rom manager.
Personally i did not like it very much. it is the same old recovery (cyan blue color), just with 1 point bigger font and extra (double) line spacing for those with fat fingers.
Also with the original recovery you had larger text space to read the logs, which is now gone thanks to the line spacing. and there is no scrolling back to go up and read the logs.
i am planning to stick to the old recovery (original green one). Its a very personal choice though
HTC Desire User.

Does anybody have a link for our phones? I can't find the touch recovery for our phone.

Not available for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 or the Droid 3 yet. I guess I don't need it for the Droid 3. I want to get the Droid 4 as soon as it comes out. Waiting.

Well koush said gs3 recoveries are up, he didn't specify carrier so I take that to mean them all. Rom manager will verify support when you click flash.
cant wait to download this. Thank you

I've been in this game since before the Nexus S came out... and I fail to see the appeal of TWRP over ClockworkMod. What am I missing that everyone seems to love it?

Cleanrom question

I'm using the cleanrom and it says I have an update from at&t. But, when I download the update recommend using Wi-Fi, it's takes me into recovery and asks me if I want to tryst unknown zips. So I chose yes and it aborts. No one seems to want to help a person out so I came to this thread

Search before posting. Someone just asked this yesterday and 3 days ago. But to answer the question, you cannot update with a custom recovery installed. You can find the update in the development section and flash it.

There is no history of breaking phones is there?
One thing I couldnt figure out about cwm is that I couldnt name the backups in recovery...is that possible with this one?

If you backup using CWM through ROM Manager you can name the backups.

The card is probably exFAT format. If you reformat it to Fat32 I bet you it would work.
