[Q] TWRP and CWM

I have both recoveries installed on my d2att, but everytime I reboot into Recovery, TWRP shows up. But I actually need CWM. How can I replace or set CWM as default? I have flashed CWM through ROM Manager but TWRP still appears on my reboot screen. What do I do?

Try flashing Philz Touch Recovery via Odin.

Try using the method to install cwm in this thread.

** Remove CWM & use TWRP ??

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.

If you can still get into twrp then you haven't wiped everything and its no problem to get it going again. There is an option called mount in twrp, with the device connected to a pc via usb click mount, this allows you to access the internal device storage from the pc and easily transfer a Rom over to it which you can then go back to twrp main menu and install. Always remember to do some research if you don't fully understand what it is you're doing before you do it. Next time you might end up with a brick.

ok sorry for not saying i can boot into twrp ok yes i can still boot into twrp v2.2.2 i can mount i tried loading a custom rom i loaded hellfire and hellkat but i just get sent into a boot loop i tried flashing twrp 2.6 but it stays the same v2.2.2 i have been looking for stock rom to flash but cannot find one any help to get this twrp updated or a new rom to take on this version thanks in advance for any help

Might be stuck on fastboot after you flash, I don't have the kindle fire anymore so I'm a little unsure on the details, but it seems like you could get the stock firmware from Amazon as a full download update...at least I remember doing it a while back. What does the bootloop look like after you flash?

Download a jellybean rom with gapps. Flash both. Boot up and get Flashify from the store. Flash twrp 2.6.3.2 using Flashify. Reboot to twrp to verify it updated. Now you can flash a kitkat rom, with the appropriate gapps.

[SOLVED] Stuck on bootscreen

Hey EveryOne...
I've SG Note2 n7100 was on stock and updated to 4.3, I just wanted to install any custom ROM so I tried to flash recovery from this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531965, It says, just install recovery and flash whatever rom you want, so I successfully flash Phillz recovery, and backup of my stock ROM, after backup I just wipe all data to install a new rom after that I tried to flash a ROM probam_kk_1.2.5_d800 during flashing status 7 error occur, so i just go back to wipe all data, and restore my rom, but after restoring I am on bootscreen and nothing.
What should I do?
I am downloading latest firmware from Sammobile and there is a tutorial says it can be flash via Odin, so could this will help me?
Or I just download any other Rom and give it a try?
PS.. the device was not rooted, was on Pure Stock..
Sorry for my English..
and Thanks for your cooperation.. :fingers-crossed:

Status 7 is usually when you are using an older version of recovery. Which version of phils are you on? You probably just need to update that while you are flashing a recent rom

If your flashing omni rom I think you need the latest version of phils or the latest version of twrp. I had the same issue on my galaxy tab 2 with omni. Updated to latest twrp and it flashed no problem.

Thanks for your cooperation kind Sir..
I heard that latest version of philz will get you into the bootloop, and majority on this forum said that philz 5.00.5 is the best recovery that don't take you to the bootloop, and also I've backup my stock rom in philz recovery if I flashed newer recovery will I be able to restore my stock rom?
Or can I leave all this and just go for the flash stock Rom via odin? Will this help?

I think the later versions of phils recovery can have issues with aroma which Omni doesn't use. If it were me I'd flash the latest twrp and install Omni with that as the Omni team use twrp for there ota's. You can flash twrp through phils recovey and vice versa. If you want to restore your back up just flash back to phils first or do a new back up with twrp

[Q] Recovery not working.

Redmi 1s.. v45 rooted.
I have TWRP 2.8.0 recovery. I can enter in the recovery. But...
1) can't install any zip(tried to install zip of stock recovery and cwm. It shows successful but again boots in twrp recovery)
2) can't backup(it shows backup is successful but no folder or file is created as a backup)
3)tried fixing root permission... But it takes forever to complete the process)
If this can be fixed plz help...... Other thing i did is...
I tried to flash rom in fastboot...
Using Miflash.... An error is displayed.... Can't flash the rom too.
Thanks

There's some problem with the recovery i guess. Try using fastboot recovery to flash the latest version and an rom

I installed CWM recovery via fastboot. Now everything is fine.:angel:
But in TWRP I used to see "simulating actions" while performing backup or installing zips.
Didn't get that.

Cwm touch recovery
Everytime im tryig to backup rom , via cwm , it says cant mount backup path.. I installed stock recovery updating via updater then formatted my internal sd , flashed cwm again,, tried back up again didnt work.. Any help?

I had problems with Custom Roms in CWM but for me TWRP worked well. But you can try Philz recovery.

Hope this will solve your problem.

Solution
I had exactly the same problem.
It turned out that the problem is in the TWRP settings. Uncheck the Simulate bla...bla...bla...
