[Q] How do I flash CWM over TWRP? Rom manager not an option

Hi,
I have a Bell Galaxy S3 that has TWRP installed right now, but for some reason, only about 1/4 ROMS I try to flash on it lately, doesn't work. I would like to give CWM a try again, but I can't seem to find a way to flash it back. ROM manager doesn't give me the option and I can't find an up to date flashable TWRP or ODIN .tar file.

CWM will replace TWRP.
6.0.4.5 is the latest CWM and is needed to flash 4.4.2 ROMs.

I'm in a similar position with TWRP already installed but ROM manager gives me the option to flash CWM. If I use ROM manager will it still replace TWRP? I'm assuming it does, but I wanted to double check first.
PS I'm running an LG Optimius 4X HD, but a Google search for my question brought up this thread, which saves me starting my own.

I would not use Rom Manager. I would download a flashable zip made for your phone and flash it from TWRP. Alternatively, you could install it via adb/fastboot.

Thanks for the suggestion - is that done just by putting the zip onto the phone and using the "install" function in TWRP, just like flashing ROMs?

Yes. Personally, I used the latest release of Philz Touch which is based on CWM. There is a version that can be flashed via a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) and a tar version that can be flashed in the PDA section of desktop Odin.

The official download off the CWM website is a .img - will that work or do I need to compress it to a .zip? Thanks for your help, especially given I don't really belong on your section of the forum!

I believe you can flash the img via fastboot.

TWRP wont install

Hi
i have just rooted my n7105 and installed Goomanager, but after TWRP downloads & installs, when i reboot into recovery it just comes up with the stock recovery.
Can someone explain how i can install it via Odin and where i find the TWRP 2.4.4.0 md5 file that i believe i need for this.
Thanks
Pete
Honestly that Goo Manager is sh!t, does nothing. Had the same problem, then saw several other posts that it doesn't work for many.
Just download the .tar, and flash via Odin or Mobile Odin, or if you already are on a custom recovery then download the zip and flash from your current recovery.
And uninstall that Goo thingy

Thsnks, but do you have any instructions on how to do this using Odin as I'm new at all this and don't want to mess it up
Yeah download the latest twrp in tar format. Then flash it through pda tab in odin. The procedure is identical to how you rooted the phone just the files are different
this is XXXDDDAAA
Thanks, i have now downloaded the file, its in a Rar format and named "openrecovery-twrp-2.4.4.0-n7100.img" do i need to Unrar first, or do i just point odin to where the Rar file is saved?
i have looked inside the Rar file and it has one file in there called "Recovery.img"
Thanks for your help
Pete
This is where i got the file from "http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/n7100/openrecovery-twrp-2.4.4.0-n7100.img.tar"
All done, thanks again for your help

[Q] can't update ROM from Philz CWM...

Hello everyone...
before posting here i tries some help on 2 other post.. i hope someone had the same problem and found a solution!
I've note 2 7105 and i tried several times updating ROM (with the latest MB6)
via CWM Philz!
everytime i hit INSTALL ZIP and i get the ROM... it just reboot into CWM without installing the rom!
i tried downloading many other times the rom.. and also otehr roms, always the same problem!
does anyone have a solution?
or.. how can i install it via odin mobile pro? cause all the rom i downloaded are .zip!
thank you in advance
You are flashing stock rom with cwm?
If yes, you can't
Flash rom are in zip but not flashable zip
Extract it, you will get tar.md5 file
You can flash using pc odin by selecting it with pda
For mobile odin
Select open file option in mobile odin and point to tar.md5 file you extracted, it will fill up required fields automatic
Select ever root if you want to keep root
Flash

Dr.Ketan thank you for your msg!!
i've a stock rom yes... but before i tried with ROM like this:
N7105-XXDMB6_Deodex_Rooted_03_25_13-teshxx.zip
(so it's not .tar.md5 inside but files like boot.img or folder as META-INF system---)
now finally i've got a atar.md5 ( stock rom )
but i was wondering why on philz CWM happens that reboot everytime i try to install a rom ( like the one above... )

I can't say whether that file is flashable zip or not without I see extracter contents exactly. Ask on the thread from where you have download it.
Philz cwm can flash any flashable zip.
Anyway stock rom you can flash with Mobile Odin as said in previous msg.

[Q] cm11 goomanager install twrp but cant replace cwm

As the title said, I just flashed a custom rom into my device ( CM11 kitkat 4.4.2)
Its the first time i root and flash my device
So now, goo manager told me that there is an update available for my device, i follow the instruction of it by downloading it
after that it pop up saying that my device need to have an open script recovery, (I searched youtube, they usually use twrp to update the CM custom ROM), so press yes and it started to download + install
There's a small pop up that saying I have installed twrp on my device, but when i press on reboot into recovery, it shows CWM recovery, even I try reboot into recovery by using ROM Manger.
How do I solve this ?
I just want to install TWRP and uninstall CWM as they said TWRP works better with CM version ?
and one small question, can i delete the zip file that i use to flash the ROM in my external sdcard, and the zip file that i have to use to update after flashing them or updating them ?

Cause you need to reflash your recovery.If you downloaded a zip file boot in CWM and flash the recovery zip file.If you downloadeded .tar.md5 file you need to put your phone into download mode ,open odin on your laptop and flash the recovery file (you need to transfer the .tar.md5 file to your laptop).Well you shouldn't delete your current ROM zip file to be honest you should have atleast have one ROM zip file (with the appropriate add ons needed ) just incase you run into trouble you can always flash the ROM from scratch (incase you don't have a back up of it on your sd card) I always keep one touch wiz ROM and one CM11 ROM zip file along with zip files of philz touch and twrp recovery (i don't do nandroid backups-personal choice) on my sd card.

Wow, so what i have to do is to boot into cwm and flash that recovery zip file ?
And so the twrp will replace cwm ?

Correct,that's how one replaces their existing recovery with another recovery.At end of flashing the zip file ,go back to main menu and click on "reboot recovery" ,You'll see your new recovery

Thanks you really helped me a lot
sorry for late reply as my replies are limited because im just new to here
By the way, one more question is is there anyway i can flash back to my stock rom but remain rooted?
and what if i want to unroot it
because i found this ROM quite buggy as in the camera app, i am a person that will take picture everyday, panaroma is quite important to me
i found this camera is very very very poor haha
furthermore, whenever in a skype call, i will hear nothing if i plugged in my earphone o.o
so i will probably flash back to stock rom but remain rooted is case of flashing other more stable rom
