I was using the wonderful TWRP to flash and backup.
But since today I went into ROM Manager and updated to the new release of ClockWorkMod it is now using cwm as my default when I reboot into recovery. So how do I go back to using TWRP?
Easy method:
Goo Manager app from play store.
Options>Install TWRP
Still Easy Method:
Find the TWRP.img
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img

Instead of Goo Manager I use an app called Flash Image GUI.
Just flashed in the twrp .img file like you said and voila. Im back in twrp
Cheers! :-D

My phone is s-off and rooted but I can't install the CWM Recovery.
I tried many things but no luck yet. I did flash the other RUU file but same result.
I can go to the recovery screen but after press the ercovery. It go to the blue text CWM Recovery screen.
Looks like an old CWM Recovery I think. It doesn't flash any zip file.
How do I install the CWM Recovery?

open play store(android market) and find app named "GooManager" okay.then installed it.
now open Goomanger and you will see option named "install openrecovery script".
click on that.that will download twrp recovery and flash itself.
procedure is same as you installed previous recovery via rom manager.this time you ll install different recovery.and yeah TWRP recovery is touch recovery so now you dont need to use volume and power key to select items

You would have to install CWM over it. Although, there's no reason to use CWM over TWRP. Imo, TWRP is much better too!
I think if you use goo manager or rom manager to install CWM, it will overwrite/replace TWRP.
After that, if you want to get rid of your TWRP backups, just use file manager to delete the TWRP folder from your phones sd card.
That's what I've been doing to switch between recoveries. But I've found I really like TWRP, so I haven't done it in a while.
I'm having some trouble with installing a new recovery. I want to have TWRP because I want to install a ROM that requires it. At the moment I have some old CWM but when I flash TWRP and reboot into recovery I still get into CWM.
So how do I replace CWM or at least boot into TWRP?

Try 4ext recovery, in my opinion i think its better. Also u cant flash recovery "flash zip from sdcard" u have to either use fastboot command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Or via PB99IMG method or using the 4ext app but u can only use the app once ur phone is booted.
So I am on oxygen OS 3.2.4 with Grarak unofficial twrp and rooted and I want to install the official oneplus 3 twrp. Can someone kindly tell me the steps that I need to take?
Just download the twrp recovery image from https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus3/
Reboot the phone to fastboot.
Then run "fastboot flash recovery c:\path\to\recoveryimg" from a command line.
So I cannot flash the recovery file from the unofficial twrp?

Oh I did forget that twrp now can flash image files, I always just use fastboot. My bad. Yeah you can do that. Just select that it's an IMG file and that it is recovery.
Or download flashify and do a back up of recovery and u can download twrp from the app it's self and flash
Here's the deal. I unlocked the bootloader of my OnePlus 3, flashed TWRP Recovery with "Tool All In One" through my pc. Then I was able to root my phone, I did it and then, flashed the Open Beta 9 through TWRP.
Now the problem I have now is that I'm unable to flash TWRP from my computer and I don't know why. It doesn't display any error or anything else. But when I boot into recovery mode, it is not TWRP, it's the stock one. Help me out. I want root and Xposed lol!
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
into recovery Vol Plus and Power
flash SU
beta9 is Nougat so xposed is not working yet.

You need adb and Fastboot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979&page=95
On The Fastboot PATH
Same directory, Put twrp.img
Shift and Right Mouse.Open cmd and type
fastboot flash recovery "twrp file name.img"
You can get TWRP.
I recommend TWRP .28
After you can flash any Rom and Kernel , SU etc...
You need modified TWRP Recovery to Run Open Beta 9, official TWRP won't work
Here's the link for Modified TWRP

... Update of the update haha: I downloaded the root zip and then I flashed the TWRP, Installed root zip and made a backup of the whole system and now, the TWRP recovery is installed permanently. Thank you if you guys followed my thread.
