Is there anyone who can share their twrp for evo 4g recovery with me? I went to the op and went to the main site but could not find my device. It's not on goo manager for me neither. Any help appreciated.
Here it is.

Edit: Just realized that was 2.3, not 2.2. I'll keep looking.

Hey Thanks Robobob for taking the time to do that. I guess Team Win doesn't support the og evo 4g on their site anymore.

I think after the initial issues with the bricking of devices with the 2.1 version they took it off the site.
There was a d/l in the twrp thread in the evo development section before with the version I posted above. I didn't check to see if its still there.
Dunno if you've used it before, but I remember it hung a little at the boot screen so don't worry if that happens.
Is the twrp recovery a good recovery compared to the smelkusmod?
Like ROMs both have plus and minus points. Twrp is faster, has the gui, and some other unique features. Smelkus like the original Amon ra its based off is more stable for our phone, wipes more thoroughly and is tried and tested.
At the end of the day its your choice. I really liked the original twrp 1.1.1, this one is good, I trust SmelkusMOD more though.
Try it out for yourself

I tried TWRP, even though it looks better, it doesnt perform like I wanted. I tried flashing a stock rom for my evo, but it kept saying it failed. On amon ra smelkus mod it ran like a beauty.

Well I am buying an Inc and I am coming from the Eris. Well on the Eris side it was known for the Clockwork Recovery to brick the phone sometimes. Can the same happen to the Inc and are most ROMs Clockwork required? Thank you.
I don't know of any rom that requires clockwork but the new incredibles have different hardware and rooting and what not is a Tad different I believe

I've never had issues, and I flash ROM's and other zip files all the time. The other option for recovery is Amon RA. I have never used it, but here is some information about it.
I have an AMOLED screen, but SLCD screens use a specific version of ClockworkMod, just something to watch out for too.
I've boink my phone to almost unusable. Simple factory stock flash and I was back. I do a lot development on my phone so I mess with it pretty good. the incredible is great for rooting.

i can't load the amon_ra recovery, doesn't actually work when i do it through rom manager, and i used unrevoked to root. just got my evo back from a 3 month long period of not having it (it broke and i was to lazy to take it in) i had RA before and was running cynogen 6, just rooted last night, and looked in the thread for RA Recovery and none of it is working.
all the directions didn't work for me, or i forgot how to adb and therefore can't do that. i tried terminal on the phone and everything, i really don't want to flash a rom until i do a nandroid with ra.
anyone care to help.

None are complete all still in beta mode (imo) would be best to just get a good aosp Rom and add theme gingerbread. Also cm6.1.1 is the best I have used but that's all opinion. Heard cm7 will be gingerbread and should be out soon!

hey guys quick question. I have my Evo with a rooted ROM on there right now. I believe its Kingdom 3D or something along those lines. I just purchased an Evo 3D and want to sell this Evo as is rooted and all. I tried punching in the ##2382# or whatever the code is to get into the settings to see if it would work so when the person that buys it wont have problems with sprint on the phone and it didnt work. Is there anyway to activate a rooted phone if the ## doesnt work over the phone? I'd hate to go back to stock.
They would have to flash another ROM if ##3282# didn't work.
Leave the thing S-Off and flash a custom 2.2/3 ROM, something not based on the Shift. For example, Sprint Lovers or Azrael or SNS or Warm 2.2.
Oh, and flash AmonRa please. Don't let the person start out with ROM Manager / ClockworkMod

Why? You are selling the phone. The easiest way to do this is to just unroot and return to stock. Its way easier than trying to explain what a rooted phone is to the buyer, and explaining all the problems and bugs that come along with rooting. Plus, if that person would take the phone into sprint to activate it, THEY would get in trouble for bringing in a rooted phone.
How much are you asking for your phone?
I'm gonna sell it for $100. Front camera for some reason just stopped working. I have also an extended battery on it (Not Seido).

Rom Manager is an app. Clockwork Mod and AmonRa are both recoveries. People are pretty much split 50/50 on which is the best, I personally only use clockwork, I have never had a problem with it.

No, clockwork and Amonra are both recoveries. Completely separate from a rom and apps. Recoveries are used to flash roms, but they are not part of roms.
Rom Manager is an app that lets you USE the recovery, without actually booting into the recovery yourself. So Rom Manager uses recoveries, but it's not part of the recovery.

Did the camera stop working after you rooted/flashed? Or is this a hardware issue?
I would think it would be best to flash back to stock on this phone, and sell it that way. Let the user root/flash after they activate it.
IM me if you haven't sold this yet.
So is there a stable, dependable touch-capable recovery out there?
I keep reading warnings. Should I stick with Amon RA?
Thanks
I like the latest clockwork mod touch recovery. I've used it to flash many roms and have had success. I've had some instability in some roms but i chalked it up to failing to wipe all caches, and experimental new releases. I've tested TWRP only briefly but used it to flash one rom successfully.
I figured out the hard way that none of these touch recoveries are able to flash radios, so keep that in mind. I went back to AmonRa for that and then back to touch for convenience.

Continue to use AmonRa, is the most recommended recovery by Devs. besides if you're looking for touch features then you try this one here if you don't use it already.

Which Recovey Do You Guys Think is Best CWM or TWRP?
I'm using TWRP because it's what I've used on my prior HTC devices and I'm familiar with it. I've read that 4EXT recovery might be available for our phones soon, and I'll switch to that if it becomes available.
Keep calm and flash on...

+1 on 4EXT, That's by far my favorite recovery:good:
Where did you hear that it was coming to the sgs3?
I emailed madmaxx on it and he said he was really busy with allot of other models and he would look into our sgs3's since it's a popular device.
Hopefully we will see it soon:fingers-crossed:
CWM is great, but TWRP is just awesome.
For me, TWRP has these little things that just make sense, like a link to wipe dalvik/cache right after you flash something, option to queue up multiple zips to flash in a certain order, option to compress your backups (because they do end up taking quite a bit of space if you have multiple backups), etc.

I believe I read on their site that they may begin working in it at a future date. I'm satisfied with TWRP, but I'm hopeful that 4EXT is "in the cards" so to speak.
Edit: it appears like they want to start working on the international version of the SGS3. Hopefully we might me able to sway them towards working on the stateside version first.

I like twrp personally. Layouts better and easier to use. Plus it has a built in file manager.
Cwm has the ability to prevent itself from being overwritten after ota update but there's other ways around this.
They are both good recoveries imo, just personal preference.

I prefer twrp (only when 4ext isn't available). I talked to madmaxx82 and he was in middle of a complete redesign/overhaul on the UI of 4ext when started having computer issues. Then he did say we r on the list. I was his beta tester for the HTC Amaze. He prefers the HTC devices so I assume will be doing those first.

If I wanted to switch from CWM touch to TWRP, can I just flash the twrp using goomanager? Also, if I do change do the backups from CWM work fine for TWRP?

Yes, install goo manager from the playstore and install recovery from there. No you will not be able to restore any backup made with CWM in TWRP.
Thanks for the quick answer. I think I'll just stick with CWM for now. I'd love to see EXT for us, I had that for the sensation and loved it and was a bit disappointed to find there wasn't a version here.

I have been a loyal CWM user since MT3g days, then I tried TWRP on my SGS3 and have not looked backed. I love the UI better, everything just seems a lot faster in TWRP to me.
