last one i swear - Sprint LG G2

after auto rec is it safe to flash a newer stable twrp?

I think they put out a 2.7.0.1 or something like that. I don't see why you couldn't

Rom manager with cm10?

Ok so rom manager came pre installed on cm10. I never used it on my old phone because of bricking stories. Question is, is it being used for ota updates for cm10? And is it safe for me to install cwm touch from it?

Rom Manager and this phone are not a conversation that is even taking place. But as far as the question CM is going back to their own "ota" system and while I am sure CM9 will get it as well CM10 will definitly have ut.
As far as this phone since we are not official yet I wouldn't worry about either at this time. Your updates are here.
Do not install CWM Touch recovery!!! That's asking for a brick. We have TWRP if you want a touch recovery. Aroma packages also give you a customizable touch interface for installing .

Thanks.. that's the answer I was looking for. Is there a flashable zip for the twrp. Recovery? And has it been used with cm10 before?

This phone has the recovery packed in the kernel, so you will be looking for a kernel+twrp or kernel+cwm. The recovery will change everytime you flash a different rom or kernel that has a different recovery packed with it. Some people, like me, use el26+cwm for recovery related things, such as wiping, flashing and backing up/restoring. However if you go this route you will need to locate an ics or jb kernel to flash to boot to your rom, if you aren't flashing a rom. You will need to flash a compatible kernel either before making a backup or after restoring a backup to make it bootable. I typically flash the kernel then do the backup so I don't forget to flash it after a restore.

Can I flash a recovery while on aosp?

Don't know of I can or not but. I wanted to be certain. Also which is more stable cwm, or twrp?
Ive always used cwm but I read that twrp fixes emulated SD card issues???.

AFAIK the clockwork doesn't depend on whether you are on aosp or else.
I guess the stability is about the same but I'd prefer TWRP because it's more userfriendly and has more features.
And as I never had emulated sdcard issues, i can't tell u anything about that.

OK. Cool.. Where did u get your download for twrp? I tried using goo manager. But it says it was going to install a att version.. All Roms in too is att. Seemed sketchy.. Am I missing something ???
Sent from my SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
Did you flash an at&t rom? That's the main reason it'd do that to you. Check your build prop for i747 and d2att. Google how to do that if you aren't sure. Your SIG shows the use of it so I'm guessing you did.

I used CWM for years and started having problems with it when I started flashing 4.2. CWM had some problems flashing the roms correctly and with the multiple profile storage and TWRP was a little ahead of them when it came to fixing those problems. So I jumped to TWRP and never looked back. I prefer it for serveral reasons. The interface is more friendly, backing up and restoring roms are a bit faster and the overall fetures will keep me with TWRP.

Freegee or flash recovery myself?

What's the difference between these two methods? Is there any difference at all? Or is it just preference?

Simple question can't get a simple answer? Alright guess I'll just dive into whichever at random

The benefit to using the FreeGee installed recovery is that it is definitely a Loki-agnostic recovery. This means that you can flash any ROM built for our phone without having to confirm that it has been patched with Loki. Shellnut's recovery included with FreeGee automatically detects the presence of a Loki patch. If it's already been applied to a ROM it will not run Loki, but if it has not been applied it will patch it as part of the flashing process.
With that said, I'm not sure if any of the other Recoveries floating around have the auto-Loki feature baked in. For me, it was a matter of safety to go with the FreeGee recovery.
Had I seen this earlier I would have responded.
Thank you sir!! Much appreciated

Do I need to restore to stock to go back to touchwiz?

I am trying to go from cm10.1 to a 4.3 ge ROM and for some reason I can flash and get it to work buf once i reboot the phone i get stuck in a boot loop. Ive tried a few different 4.3 roms and always get the the same boot loop after rebooting.
Am i doing something wrong? (wipe/factory reset and format. Then flash rom)

Read around and found that it is twrp giving me problems. Is there a way to flash cwm via twrp?

Yeah. Just use a flashable CWM.zip rather than a Odin flashable .tar.
Also, it's TWRP 2.6 that is casuing problems. TWRP 2.5.2 works fine. You can find the download for that in the TWRP thread in the DEV section. You'll have to search the thread, but it's in there.

Yes, just get the zipped version of CWM, and it should be installable thru TWRP. Flash it the same as anything else.
I cannot find either the cwm zip or twrp 2.5.2

The flashable CWM zip is buried in the CWM development thread, not in the OP. As far as TWRP 2.5.0.2, the Odin flashable tar and .img is here.

Root and your unlocked bootloader...

You're unlocked, stop using root exploits. Flash a recovery, flash a SU.zip, and get permanent root access.

dude! i am sorry to say that Philz Cwm is alot better to use!
i may suggest it to use!...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2461651
but its your Wish If you want TWRP it if you want CWM then use philz cwm as i am using its awesome andworks well
This is not a guide, just a post to clue some people in. Use whatever recovery you want. With that being said, I don't think Philz has been updated to work on KK. Besides, take a look at that TWRP I posted, it has some pretty cool features.

Oh okay. And I am using philz cwm on my KitKat RAZR M 4.4.4 it works well. And yeh maybe twrp is better but its depending upon you what you want to use
