Is there a way to update to 4.2.2 using the stock .img from Google without USB? (Due to water damage) I would like to keep root too.
I was thinking to use Bluetooth to send boot.img, system.img, radio.img, bootloader.img and SuperSU.zip to /sdcard then use MobileOdin to flash them but unsure if it'll work.
Current state of Phone
Rooted stock 4.1.1 with latest TWRP recovery
Any ideas?
What's preventing you from downloading the new Rom via WiFi? Then flash in your recovery, or am I missing something here.. Are you trying to update to the latest 4.2.2 OTA? You can run ADB over your network, I personally would download the Latest CM10.1 and be done with it.

Sorry for not making it clear, yes I want stock 4.2.2 also need to update bootloader and radio, my new plan is this:
1) Download system.img boot.img JDQ39_radio_bootloader.zip (which I found Here) and SuperSU.zip
2) Using Mobile Odin Flash system.img and boot.img
3) Boot into recovery and flash JDQ39_radio_bootloader.zip and SuperSU.zip
4) Wipe
That should work right?

Did it give any error on CWM while applying the zip file?
BTW, have you tried by ODIN using md5 released by arco?

Hey, guys!
Here is the CWM 6.0.4.4 recovery for our LG Optimus G pro (e98x), both .img and .lok, maybe the fxxx need .img
the name of these recoverys is "geefhd", if your ROM's updater-script doesn't compat this, please pay attention on it
.lok
http://pan.baidu.com/s/1265DP
.img

And then, if you are interested of AOSP KitKat, I am working on it for some times, and the bugs now is camera and gps.

I modified a TWRP installer with this CWM. Replaced TWRP with CWM on my E986 and it works. Updated adb.exe to work with 4.4.
To install just extract the zip contents and run the batch file.

It works. I installed it on 4.4, by the way.

Any chance for a flashable zip file please?

No, you can't flash those files, but if you want to update CWM, why don't you install Philz recovery for the e980, it is great.

I have a e986 german with Stock 20a EU 4.4.2
If I installed cwm it gives me a boot loop into recovery. So I must install my rom via kdz tool and so I have no recovery yet. I found no way to flash a working recovery and unlock bootloader for my phone.
Can I flash this under e986eu20a?

I have send you a PM.
hello everyone, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note II(GT-N7102 Daul sim) that i got from a friend of
mine. im not sure if its a clone or not but im having hard time putting in a custom recovery. the odin
method will not work nor will it go into odin mode and yes ive tried several different ways and it simply
will not work. ive been at this for about a week now.
so my question(s) at this point is:
1. Is there a flash-able recovery zip file that i can install via stock recovery?
2. Is it safe flash a custom recovery using the skipsoft tool kit via sideloader in the stock recovery(ADB)?
or
3. is it safe to install a custom recovery through the Rom Installer App?
morale of the story here folks is i just want put in a custom english rom but i cant do that without a custom recovery. and if anything i just want Gapps to work on my current rom(for now anayways)
also this probably off topic but i would like to know if theres a way to tell if i have a clone or not
your help and wisdom will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!
If u want try install recovery..try install twrp..

You must flash first custom recovery from Odin Other you can flash via recovery.
Also the newest I think 2.7.1.0

turns out my device is a clone(MT6577) but can i still flash CWM in the stock recovery?
n7102 play store firmware
Hello guys,
I've got a Sony Xperia M C1905 with Android 4.1.2, white, Firmware 15.1.C.2.8, rooted using towelroot and SuperSU installed as system app version 2.82, pseudo-pro activated.
I think you all know that the Xperia M has no stock recovery and flashing to recovery using "fastboot flash recovery twrp-nicki.img" doesn't work.
Instead I did it using the boot image from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2480556 .
Now the big question for me is:
Does flashing cyanogenmod replace the /boot partition? Will I lose the recovery? If that is the case, can I reflash the modified boot image (also if this will make cyanogenmod unbootable) and that way get the recovery back and restore stock rom backup?
This is very important for me, I don't want to brick my Xperia M, and I am happy at the moment, because I have CWM recovery and root access. But for me there is something missing if I can't install new roms and do experimental things that maybe softbrick the OS and force me to restore ROM using recovery.
Thanks!!!
Pascal
P.S. So to sum up:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Does flashing a ROM change /boot
Does it delete my recovery or am I safe?
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. You should upgrade to 4.3 (I think latest is 15.4.A.1.9) before flashing anything
2. Yes, flashing any ROM will replace your /boot.
3. Flash TWRP into FOTA kernel.

Problem is that I didn't receive an update notification, and the tool on Windows (i think it was called pc companion or something like that) didn't find updates.
Is there maybe anywhere a 4.3 backup done in cwm? Then I could flash it using cwm as long as I have it and then use twrp on 4.3

It's because Xperia M is not anymore supported by Sony.
