is there any other recovery which support galaxy grand except CWM recovery ?
custom recovery
i mean Custom recovery not stock.
It's not the recovery that supports the phone, it's the phone that supports the recovery.
What is wrong about CWM? I agree that TWRP is slightly better (in my personal opinion) but CWM is great nonetheless.
ok

wat is the difference between flashing with stock recovery and flashing with cwm??
i think flashing via odin is flashing only a stock rom (but i think u can flash also a custom rom in odin) while in cwm flashing you can flash custom rom,. just my opinion..
You can only flash a few Zips using the stock recovery. CWM on the other hand, supports most of them. And CWM has a lot more options than the stock recovery. You can also backup your stock and custom Roms using CWM.
you can process the same UPDATE.ZIP files in CWM , which you also might process in stock recov. CWM contains those functions as a subset.
so there is no need for stock recov, because CWM handles all UPDATES.ZIPs just as well. plus, CWM is more feature rich.
is there any CWMs that planted to the phone? like CWM on Gal Ace...
the previous CWM is lack in something. If you delete the CWM zip youll get your HH bootlooping and error
and don't forget to mention that install custom rom via odin will raise bin counter...it will make your guarantee void.

And this is too general a question to be posted in a device specific forum!!
I am new to the whole rooting and flashing roms and kernels. I rooted my epic 4g touch via QBKing77's videos and then followed his video on how to install the clockwork mod recovery with the agat recovery. Then I went to google play and bought ROM manager pro and clicked "flash clock workmod recovery" and it showes that I have the latest version flashed, but when I then go to "boot into recovery" it boots into the clockwork mod recovery but when I try to use my volume buttons to navigate nothing happens. But they work in AGAT recovery? Whats wrong? What should I do?
Thanks
Im having similar issues with CWM. I have premium installed and when I click boot to recovery it goes to a weird android recovery with an android twirling something but there is no option for an image nandroid backup...and when i click on make a backup from the CWM menu it takes me to the same screen but says error and aborts... have the stock root...ff18....i have verified root. I also have odin mobile...it would be nice to be able to just upload whatever i meed from there without having to go thru all this odin stuff...Never had to with my att skyrocket 2
Why did you buy rom manager pro. Rom Manager can not flash recoveries on this phone. Recoveries are packed into the initramfs of our kernel unlike most phones. At best you get a temp flash which by the way has proven to be an unsafe thing.
I am not familiar if anyone has any updated safe repacks with just plain stock cwm. But there are custom recoveries based on it for stock TW roms. CM9 has stock CWM and TWRP though.
I don't think the video told you to buy rom manager pro and or to try and flash recoveries with it. You flash kernels that have recoveries. You can do this with tar's in odin/mobile odin and or if you have custom recovery cwm zips then.
AHHH was about to say i just realized i needed to update the correct kernel in order for it to work...thank you for the lightning quick response tho...

Okay thanks. So i can use the agat recover to wipe caches and install zips?
Ok, so my issue is that I have TWRP and CWM recoveries installed on my N2.
My question is, can/how do I remove/uninstall CWM and "only" use TWRP recovery?
I ask this because I mainly see ROM devs saying to use TWRP as of late, and if this
is the case, I don't want to have CWM no more because... I CANNOT boot into TWRP,
it always boots me into CWM when I do the key combination to boot into recovery. It never
gives the option to boot into TWRP recovery.
Thanks in advance.
You can only have 1 recovery loaded. It's personal preference but if flash 4.4 kitkat you need CWM or philz.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Which is the better method, flashing a new Philz recovery via ODIN, or flashing it via a custom recovery.
Also, can flashing the wrong custom recovery hard brick my phone?
Just flash the new recovery through your current recover
I was on PhilZ and i flashed the latest TWRP through PhilZ no problems
Not sure about the question, maybe
Hi everyone,
What do you think of flashify to flash a custom recovery or a custom rom / stock ?

Used flashify to backup stock recovery then flash custom recovery.
Need to have super su installed.
1. backup recovery if something goes wrong just in case.
2. Flash custom recovery. TWRP works fine for me.
