sorry for that....please someone help me
I dont get it, why would you like CWM touch recovery.??? It doesnt support flashing KK.
Also I think your touch screen doesn't work properly. Then why would you go for CWM Touch recovery.
If your touch screen is perfect, you can install 4EXT app. This will help you to flash latest 4ext recovery, for flashing KK Roms.
And please try to read more than.post...

But if you need CWM by NeverGone\Ru, then download that recovery.img
Even using your phone, you can edit flashable zips.
Use ZArchiver from playstore.
Then edit those lines which are in the zip you attached by the name of the recovery.img you downloaded.
Replace the old recovery by NeverGone\Ru. And you are all done. Flash it through recovery as you would flash the old 5.x.x version.
Thanks...

You need to follow the Instruction properly.
If it ask you to flash via CWM, then download CWM and put it into your SD directly.
Then goto Recovery mode and select update from SD then select CWM zip file to enter CWM.
Good luck.

there's several advantages of using cwm
1. more recovery option.
2. no need to sign the zip file
3. more installation capability. we can't install kernel via stock recovery.

Hi,
I have a Bell Galaxy S3 that has TWRP installed right now, but for some reason, only about 1/4 ROMS I try to flash on it lately, doesn't work. I would like to give CWM a try again, but I can't seem to find a way to flash it back. ROM manager doesn't give me the option and I can't find an up to date flashable TWRP or ODIN .tar file.

I'm in a similar position with TWRP already installed but ROM manager gives me the option to flash CWM. If I use ROM manager will it still replace TWRP? I'm assuming it does, but I wanted to double check first.
PS I'm running an LG Optimius 4X HD, but a Google search for my question brought up this thread, which saves me starting my own.

I would not use Rom Manager. I would download a flashable zip made for your phone and flash it from TWRP. Alternatively, you could install it via adb/fastboot.

Thanks for the suggestion - is that done just by putting the zip onto the phone and using the "install" function in TWRP, just like flashing ROMs?

Yes. Personally, I used the latest release of Philz Touch which is based on CWM. There is a version that can be flashed via a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) and a tar version that can be flashed in the PDA section of desktop Odin.

Download your stockversion from sammobile. and flash it with Odin.
Download CWM and the root.zip flash it with odin,so your tab are rooted.
Make an nandroid backup with the recovery.
so is sure that you can go back when you have probs.

I have no external sdcard inserted in the tab. I hoped i would be able to flash the files i copied on the tab.
I kinda have the same problem, Im going to follow this thread...
I may be late for dinner but here is how I flash roms on my 5210. If the rom is the OEM Stock Rom, I flash it from ODIN. This HAS to be done this way. There is no other way to flash OEM Stock Rom.
If I am going to flash something like Grievous or Pimpdroid or BinDroid, I will load the rom on to my internal memory Download folder. Then from TWRP I select install and it goes straight to the download folder. However, before I install any of these roms I will wipe the cache and dalvik cache. Is this wise? I don't know, I just do it because most of what I have read has indicated it should be done.
So if you are still having issues, reload from fresh the OEM Stock Rom for you device. Then reload your favorite Recovery (CWM or TWRP). Set up your device for the minimal way you want to use it. Now, from either CWM or TWRP (or whatever backup app you have) backup your device and save it to your PC. This way you can always go back to standard/stock.
From here you would load the Root.zip AND the rom you want to load on the internal download folder (note - if the rom is already rooted there is no need to load root.zip). Now go into recovery and install the root. Restart then shutdown. Note - you may have to update the SuperSU or Superuser app. Go back into recovery and install the rom.
This is how I have done it and it has worked for me. I am sure I have loaded and reloaded several times different roms. However, I always come back to the Stock ROM via backup restore. I haven't found a rom worth using.
This is how I do it. Your device may not react in the same way mine does. So I advise you on the side of caution that you could damage your device if you follow what I do. Not saying what I do is wrong, but it is how I go about loading and unloading different roms. The key for me is I use the backup/restore from TWRP. I find it to be very fast.
Good luck!
ps... if you have already done this and it did not work, my apologies for coming to party too late.
Thank you for your help. I allready tried this procedure. It all works well, the problem starts with the custom roms i try to install, They install fine but when they boot up I get various forceclose messages. Unusable.
I suspect the isue is with the roms. I have not yet found a working rom for GT-P5220.
Has anyone found some working rom for this specific device?
SOLVED
So today I decided I would try to install a custom OS/ROM whatever it's called on my HTC One X. I unlocked the bootloader successfully without any problems. Then I went on to root the phone, and this is where it all went wrong. I found a tutorial and followed it to the tiniest detail. I am unable to link to it because I am a new user. When my phone rebooted it went to the "HTC Quietly Brilliant" boot screen. I left it there for 30 minutes and it still didn't move on. What do I do now? I am a super noob at this, and I admit that I am an idiot for not reading more up on it first, it just all seems so super complicated.
Thanks in advance for any help and guidance.

No, no error, it said "Daemon launched successfully" or something along those lines, my phone turned off and turned back on to the HTC boot screen.
Ok, try this: if the phone is still on keep the power button pressed till it restarts and press also vol down button until you arenin the bootloader; if the device is off, enter bootloader keeping power and vol down button pressed... Now my suggestion is to flash a custom recovery and a custom rom, you will get root privileges and the phone will work again...
Sent from Somewhere Over The Rainbow...
If you are unlocked (you see it in bootloader) you can flash a custom recovery and a custom rom. Look up for your favorite Recovery and flash it.
Download the img File to directory where you have the fastboot files and run this code in command prompt
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
After it you can boot into Bootloader and turn to recovery to get access to phone and SD Card/flash Rom
Did you flash boot.img and erased the cache?

Okay, so I successfully flashed TWRP and launched into recovery mode with it. How I get the custom ROM files on my SD card, when I plug my phone into my computer with USB it doesn't show up in the drives section, so I can't open up the SD card.
Another thing is that with the latest version of TWRP for my phone touch doesn't work in the recovery mode. There's a version that does, but it says it doesn't have USB mount or something like that. What's the next step?
You need to mount sd card via recovery, and having the touchscreen working is better as it will be easier to move inside aroma installer... Use philz recovery (if you want a sense rom use 5.15.9, if you want kitkat use the last version), enter the recovery, plug the phone into pc, mount sdcard via recovery, copy the zip over it and follow the instructions to install rom... You can find the instructions in every rom thread op... Ask if you need more help

Thanks for all the help, I am really starting to get a better understanding of how this actually works. I flashed Philz recovery and went into recovery with it. Then I went to mount and mounted USB Storage. Is this the right thing? It still doesn't show up on my PC

which version did you flash? sometimes it keeps a couple of minutes before popping up the sdcard in pc, but i ensure you that 5.15.9 usb mout feature works fine... some users (me too) faced some issues with some 6.x.y version (sorry, i don't remember which one as i still use sense rom and so philz 5.15.9)

I flashed latest version 6.19.3. There are only 3 versions available as far as I can see. They are:
6.19.3
6.12.8
6.07.9
I'll try flashing the two other versions and see what happens.

Thank you! It finally showed up on my PC after a minute. I wanted to try Android 4.4.2 KitKat custom ROM "Carbon" so I want to ask a bit of an off-topic question. What are the GApps thing that I am told to install with the ROM? Why are they so important, what do they do?

those are google apps (i bet you understood what they are for just reading the full name ) i'm sorry to tell you that philz 5.15.9 can't flash 4.4.2 android, so you should update it... but now you have the zip on sdcard at least... give a look at latest TWRP you can find here in the OP #2 (everyhing should work with this version, but i still didn't test it, so i can't ensure it... i told you to use Philz 5.15.9 because i was 100% sure USB mount works with that recovery, and we needed to put a rom zip on sdcard ) now that you understood how things work, you can choose the recovery you want according to your reqirements have a nice flash man, and feel free to ask me if you need any further help

I flashed to the newest Philz recovery again and successfully installed both ROM and GApps. Rebooting phone now, I hope it works... Been on HTC screen for a while though.

have you flashed boot.img via fastboot and erased cache via fastboot? the commands are
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
remember that first boot can take a while (in some cases up to ten minutes)
