I installed clockwork mod recovery from rom manager, is it possible to switch that for twrp and if so how?

Go into Doc's thread stickied in Dev section and download the TWRP.zip and flash it. Yep, that easy.
Or you can install Goomanager from market and install recovery that way. You may incur some overwrite issues. Maybe not though.

I downloaded ROM Manager after I got s-off and root, and it won't let me look at ROMs unless I flash the latest clockwork recovery. I'm using the custom one that came with s-off, so would it be safe to flash to this new one straight from ROM Manager?
Yes. That's what I had to do also. Do you have superuser? There's a file somewhere floating in this forum that installs su. After I installed that I updated the recovery from rom manager and I was good to go.

Here is the patch you flash in recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160745
"Simply install this patch via CWM and reboot. From there you can proceed to run any root apps you need (such as Titanium)."
i just installed twrp...whats the safest way to reinstall cwm? should i just reflash the cwm recovery tar file?
Yes, the tar file only changes up your recovery system.

I would like to know the opposite. How do I go from CWM to TWRP?
Is there a zip I can flash in CWM?
Also, why are you going back to CWM?

I have used Mobile ODIN to flash back and forth between recoveries. You can find ODIN flashable files for the different recoveries here.

Yes... Go to the twrp thread in the development section. I put a flash zip file for twrp there.

I think the easiest is to flash CWM just like anything else from within your current recovery. Takes just a second then reboot recovery and will have CWM.
I haven't done much with my phone lately and I'm thinking about updating my software cause of some issues.
I was thinking about using the PARANOIDandroid 2.99 and it said I should update my recovery version and I was wondering how I should do that?
Any point in the right direction would be cool. I'm not a noob just out of date.
download goo manager and use it to flash the latest twrp or you could get the zip file posted in the twrp thread and flash that in recovery then reboot..
I believe officially, twrp doesn't supply flashable zips; if downloaded from their website, you'll have to use fastboot.
'fastboot flash recovery twrp.img'

I updated my recovery trough the ROM manager app. Its an easy way, just press flash CWM. Works perfectly for me.

Goo manager is the same thing as ROM manager, only its free and flashes a much better recovery.
Go with twrp

I'm on a 4.1 .2 ROM and I'm using rom manager recovery what recovery do I need if I want to use 4.2 and what if I already have a recovery can I use two at the same time.or do I need to delet rom manager.
I have read that the newest ClockworkMod Recovery will not create the nested "/0" folders.
I recommend using the latest TWRP though.
You can update ClockworkMod from ROM Manager or you can install TWRP from the GooManager app.

I'm currently on cwm non touch recovery an want to upgrade. I'm not sure which one I should upgrade but I see a lot of devs suggest twrp touch recovery so I guess that one. Do I just download the recovery an flash it on cwm? An when I do have it installed how do I flash ROMs do I just select the ROM an the recovery will clear caches? Or do I have to flash another zip before like with cwm I flashed the super wipes?

To flash TWRP you to get Goo Manager from the play store.
Open it up and click on "flash rom"... it will ask you if you want it to find you one. Select that option.
It will then say it will DL TWRP. Once it is done with the DL it will flash TWRP to your phone.
And bam....your in the latest TWRP

Thanks!!!!! I did it already. When I'm going to flash a new ROM what do I have to do? On cwm der was the superwipe zip I had to flash before is it the same on twrp?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Dont use super wipe. Not good with TWRP.
Do a full backup first of your current rom. Do a complete wipe. When you hit the wipe option it will tell you all that it will wipe.
Next hit install from the main menu...choose you zip for your rom. Let it do its thing then reboot system.
All done

Installing twrp now, but would it conflict with my old cwm? Or does it get deleted?

you will lose cwm an gain twrp any backups you did will still be there in the cwm folder but you won't be able to use them cause twrp isn't compatible with cwm I have my stock rom backup in cwm folder for safe keeping just incase

Ok so I don't need to remove it, and recovery mode is now controlled by twrp? I'm making a fresh backup now anyway, better safe than sorry.
