[Q] cm11 goomanager install twrp but cant replace cwm

As the title said, I just flashed a custom rom into my device ( CM11 kitkat 4.4.2)
Its the first time i root and flash my device
So now, goo manager told me that there is an update available for my device, i follow the instruction of it by downloading it
after that it pop up saying that my device need to have an open script recovery, (I searched youtube, they usually use twrp to update the CM custom ROM), so press yes and it started to download + install
There's a small pop up that saying I have installed twrp on my device, but when i press on reboot into recovery, it shows CWM recovery, even I try reboot into recovery by using ROM Manger.
How do I solve this ?
I just want to install TWRP and uninstall CWM as they said TWRP works better with CM version ?
and one small question, can i delete the zip file that i use to flash the ROM in my external sdcard, and the zip file that i have to use to update after flashing them or updating them ?

Cause you need to reflash your recovery.If you downloaded a zip file boot in CWM and flash the recovery zip file.If you downloadeded .tar.md5 file you need to put your phone into download mode ,open odin on your laptop and flash the recovery file (you need to transfer the .tar.md5 file to your laptop).Well you shouldn't delete your current ROM zip file to be honest you should have atleast have one ROM zip file (with the appropriate add ons needed ) just incase you run into trouble you can always flash the ROM from scratch (incase you don't have a back up of it on your sd card) I always keep one touch wiz ROM and one CM11 ROM zip file along with zip files of philz touch and twrp recovery (i don't do nandroid backups-personal choice) on my sd card.

Wow, so what i have to do is to boot into cwm and flash that recovery zip file ?
And so the twrp will replace cwm ?

Correct,that's how one replaces their existing recovery with another recovery.At end of flashing the zip file ,go back to main menu and click on "reboot recovery" ,You'll see your new recovery

Thanks you really helped me a lot
sorry for late reply as my replies are limited because im just new to here
By the way, one more question is is there anyway i can flash back to my stock rom but remain rooted?
and what if i want to unroot it
because i found this ROM quite buggy as in the camera app, i am a person that will take picture everyday, panaroma is quite important to me
i found this camera is very very very poor haha
furthermore, whenever in a skype call, i will hear nothing if i plugged in my earphone o.o
so i will probably flash back to stock rom but remain rooted is case of flashing other more stable rom

plzz help to flash a cm11

i want to flash CM11
i have done many a times in samsung..but sony its hectic.
plzz help me out..i have unlocked my bootloader.
do i have to install superuser? but how?
nd trying different methods but not succesfull..
m on latest stock firmware....
thnkx in advance

Firstly, make sure you are in 15.4.A.0.23 and above.
1. Head over to this site. Download the latest build for Nicki.
2. Extract boot.img from the downloaded zip and flash in fastboot.
3. Wipe /data and /cache through CWM.
4. Put the CM11 zip in any storage then flash it in CWM.
5. (Optional) Download GApps from here. Make sure it's for 4.4.4. Then flash it in CWM.
If you are having root permission problems, download the latest SuperSU flashable zip from here then flash it in CWM. Disable the default Superuser app (it can be found in Developer Options by tapping the Build Number 7 times) in CM11 and untick the box in SuperSU that states "Respect CM root settings."
That's it. Hope I helped.

I don't think so. They removed it because it doesn't work for most devices.

for anyone interested, I have found that it is due to our devices lacking gyro.

Storage Layout and wifi problem

Hi,
So first I tried to install a new ROM over my Android Revolution ROM, flashing boot.img via Flashify.
Now the wifi, service and bluetooth dont work anymore.
So I tried to install the new layout many times via TWRP install through Flashify but every time I try a NL ROM (like FlexOs or any NL Rom) via recovery, i get : "your recovery is using the new storage layout but the rom you're trying to install is not" even after wiping /data and /sdcard0
I dont have any computer so I have to flash boot.img via Flashify.
Thanks in advance for helping me.

1. go ahead and download the kexec kernel v10(old layout) if you are on old layout or the new layout one if you are on new layout
2. Download this Recovery App: AromaFM-KL Flasher(4.6)(ZeusKL v10+ only)
3.download arhd rom
4. go into fastboot anf flash the kexec kernel you download in step 1 via Fastboot flash boot Zeus.img(or the name of the kernel.img )
5.Boot into recovery (TWRP).
6. Now you install Aroma-KL.zip. When you do this aroma file manager opens in recovery.
7. In aroma file manager select the zip of your rom i.e arhd
8. Now after you select your zip in the previous step, aroma gives you a list of options. In this select install the zip.(let all the option which are selected as it is ...dont deselect any option)
9.exit aroma
10.reboot

No . I dont think so..(dont even try ...as ur hox may get hard bricked)
arrange for a computer for only this time ..and once you have flashed that kernel...you wont need a computer henceforth both for flashing a rom or a kernel you can do it via the aromma kernel

Ok then Ill try to get one.
Still thanks for all your help.

Yeah the boot gets flashed but for the rom i get : archive does not contain android-info/product.txt
Any idea on that?
Is it possible to flash Aroma zip via fastboot ? Whats the command to use ?
Thanks

Done I finally succeeded in transferring files to the HOX.
I am using twrp new layout (twrp big) so I booted in recovery, went to Mount and selected only Data then I transferred files from my tablet using "adb push (local) (remote)" !
