Somehow, my recovery was turned back to stock and my phone locked again. Goo manager won't download twrp now. Just says download is starting. Anyone else seen this?

I got a sgs2 and I'm rooted running stock zip & I cant run fix permissions from CM. . only in recovery

You mean from ROM Manager? Don't. ROM Manager sucks. Use recovery. Recovery is your friend and lover. Get all up in there.

Team Win Recovery Project. Alternative to Clockwork Mod Recovery, which seems to be preferred by most.

This is TWRP
that's goo manager?? you can't run fix permissioms from there
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
No, not goo manager, that's the gui for twrp, which is a recovery. Fix permissions in recovery.

can someone tell me why you have to go into cwm recovery to back up & restore???
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
You should rarely have to fix permissions.
Recovery backs up boot,system,cache.
It can't back these things up while they are running. Just like windows updates.
Recovery is your best friend, don't fight it.
Don't forget to use the thanks button for the members that help you.

Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
How bout letting the phone boot and just download the zip? Unless ur unable to?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Alright I got it. Its strange on this phone. I found all the files by selecting install from internal storage. I'm sorry guys I'm used to the nexus in which you select install from sdcard

So ive rooted this fine device with framaroot and.have flashed both twrp and cwm a couple timea as well but cant seem to boot into them. It just gives me a black screen with a measage about recovery security. Did i need to unlock before root? Kind of strange to be able to successfully root without unlocking.

I'm guessing you're on stock. I've never heard of that.
So you unlocked using FreeGee?
For this phone, TWRP is your best option. Makes me wonder if CWM has caused that error.
You could try installing TWRP thru goomanager.
Or, run FreeGee again, and install with TWRP.
Or you can use teeny bins with LGNPST.

Run freegee to unlock or the secure boot certificate, not matching what it should be (partition sizes/md5 or whatever security they use) will prevent you from going anywhere besides normal boot

Ahh, i was not aware it was just a simple app that could unlock. I get the following message attached in the screenshot, though. Is it safe to proceed?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
It's fine. If you get an error then go to the irc and talk to them about it and they'll help figure out what went wrong and how to fix it but if it errors out don't reboot

Try Nexogen or the Optimus ROM. We only have a few stock options, but they are all good.

I think you can install goomanager and let that app do it.

Wrong guess. That erased stock recovery and now I have no recovery. Anyone know for sure?

Ah yes. Totally forgot Samsung devices had to have flashed via odin.

You can also follow the links in the twrp thread under android development. Can push through odin, flash a zip, push with adb (i think), or use goomanager

Use Philz touch
Code:
http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hltetmo
Download the tar.md5 put the phone in download mode when phone off press & hold Home+Volume Down+Power, once in download follow on screen instruction to begin download mode, then plug the phone in.
Open odin, and select PDA, then select the philz file you downloaded and click start
I recently went back to cwn and wanna go back to twrp. I had goo manager and downloaded the leastest and even in ROM manager is says twrp is the default but my phone still won't boot into twrp. I don't understand. Hopefully you guys can help.
