[Q] MMB CWM flash over phiexz CWM?

I want to have MMB CWM 5.0.2.8 as my recovery.
I have CWM 5.0.2.7 (ext4+rfs) installed by phiexz... So my question is: Can I flash it from his CWM or not and so not how do I install it?
There is no How to install on the page of MMB...
And I saw that CWM from MMB is ext4only? Is this a problem?
yes you can flash it over the old recovery. ext4 isnt a problem because all custom roms are formatted to ext4

Can I still run Stock ROM with it?
And how do I instal?
stock rom is rfs formatted. so you need a recovery that support rfs/ext4: cwm 5.0.2.6
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?2r3p45w8l8zw29p
place it in sdcard
boot into recovery
install zip from sd card>choose zip> and flash it
then reboot system after flash is complete, then you can go into recovery

No, flash ROM from custom recovery first, then the boot.img from fastboot. Use a custom, not stock, recovery (CWM, 4ext, or TWRP).

I have no idea what you're trying to say. What recoveries have you tried to flash? How have you tried to flash them? How are you trying to flash the ROM? What is "cyan," ClockworkMod (CWM) or CyanogenMod (CM)? What is a "stock recovery .boot img"? You can't flash anything from the stock recovery. You can't flash the stock ROM's boot.img with a custom ROM. Recoveries do not have boot.imgs that you need to worry about. I am saying that you need to have a custom recovery, like CWM, 4ext, or TWRP, installed. You do that through "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img." You then need to download a ROM zip, boot into recovery with power and volume-down, factory reset, and install the ROM. You then need to extract the boot.img from the ROM zip you just flashed and flash it from the computer with "fastboot flash boot boot.img."

[Q] TWRP doesn't replace CWM

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.

How to keep DualRecovery after flashing CM based rom?

I just noticed a few things. The stock based roms are using the Dual Recovery in their rom, but CM based roms, like Resurrection Remix, uses Cyanogen Recovery.
So when I flash RR, it automatically replaces my recoveries with the Cyanogen Recovery.
Is there any way to avoid that? Or is there any way I can flash my Duel Recovery back after installing RR?

It's not all cm-based ROMs that use cm recovery. Each ROM is different. It's discussed in the RR thread, and it's in the 2nd post that cm recovery is built in to that ROM. There's links there for other recovery options. I like to always have Rashr on hand to easily flash IMGs, so I can access my backups from other recoveries. Dual recovery is just not going to work on every ROM.

Okay so here is what I did:
I flashed latest RR rom
This of course, overwrote my TWRP recovery so right now I have Cyanogen recovery.
Now I flash with Flashtool, the FOTA TWRP recovery which you pointed me at.
Device does not boot
I flash CM kernel from the multirom thread, which gives me acces to the previously flashed FOTA recovery BUT!
Device boots, Stuck at boot
What am I doing wrong?
EDIT: I tried flashing recovery with Rashr, it does nothing.

I haven't used RR since 1st build, but I know it's been addressed in the thread. I would be glad to try it out to help. Meanwhile, I would try to flash twrp with fastboot, (you said you used Flashtool - maybe the same, but worth a try), and also try flashing M5, (which you need recovery to do, but you could use a temp. boot.img to get into recovery, then flash M5), which may work better with recovery. There's also Nut's PC installer. And search the RR thread.
I'll attach a copy of twrp 2.8.7.0 to try. Hope this helps.
(File too big to attach. Let me know if you want it and I'll send a link)

You can't because CyanogenMod uses its own Recovery based of CWM ( I think? ). You could try however, using a custom kernel that has its own Dual recovery ( for e.g. PhilzTouch and TWRP )

I just remembered something else. See my post here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=62114382&postcount=534 - latest version of Rashr doesn't seem to work on some ROMs. Try this one...
Edit - I just successfully flashed twrp 2.8.7.0 on latest RR using Rashr. Make sure to use this version, not the latest Play Store.
Okay so I tried what @levone1 said. I installed that Rashr which you uploaded. I tried flashing the recovery with this, and it worked! Thank you very much guys for your help!
hey thanks to levone1 i got twrp running on crDroid rom.:good::good::good:
i did it like he said: Use his Version of rashr and flash his twrp. done!
