[Q] Recovery compatible with cyanogen automatic update ??? - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I recently updated my S4 mini with the latest Milestone Cyanogenmod ROM.
When I did this, the process informed me that if I have a compatible recovery I could update the rom in an automatic process. As my recovery (clockworkmod) wasn't compatible I had to do the process manually.
Can anyone confirm wich recovery is compatible with this automatic cyanogen update?.
Many thanks in advance.

I use latest TWRP from the TWRP thread, it supports it.
I'm not sure about CWM, I never used OTA updates when I had it installed

Ok I'll try TWRP.
Can I flash it directly on my clockworkmod recovery?.
Thanks for your support.

You can Flash the official recovery mode from cm.
I think you can do it via the normal Settings.

You can, as mentioned above, however @ne0zone75 recommends using the tar.md5 file using Odin (think it's considered a little more reliable)

GT-N7102 recovery/rom help

hello everyone, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note II(GT-N7102 Daul sim) that i got from a friend of
mine. im not sure if its a clone or not but im having hard time putting in a custom recovery. the odin
method will not work nor will it go into odin mode and yes ive tried several different ways and it simply
will not work. ive been at this for about a week now.
so my question(s) at this point is:
1. Is there a flash-able recovery zip file that i can install via stock recovery?
2. Is it safe flash a custom recovery using the skipsoft tool kit via sideloader in the stock recovery(ADB)?
or
3. is it safe to install a custom recovery through the Rom Installer App?
morale of the story here folks is i just want put in a custom english rom but i cant do that without a custom recovery. and if anything i just want Gapps to work on my current rom(for now anayways)
also this probably off topic but i would like to know if theres a way to tell if i have a clone or not
your help and wisdom will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!
If u want try install recovery..try install twrp..

You must flash first custom recovery from Odin Other you can flash via recovery.
Also the newest I think 2.7.1.0

n7102 play store firmware

Unable to Install Recovery...

Hi I have been trying to install CWM Recovery on my phone through it's app through the play store. I have installed the recovery (It has said in the app) but when I boot into recovery it boots into default recovery. I am running Jelly Bean and my software version is GB28. I have also tried mobile ODIN but it says my device is unsupported, when I generate a dump file it still does not work. Help would be appreciated thanks

You can't do it that way. If you want CWM, you have to flash a ROM with that recovery attached to it. CM11 nightlies, Commotio, Vanir, Liquid Smooth, PAC ROM all have CWM recovery. That is the only way you can have that on this phone.

I have a tutorial up with the file you need to get a safe recovery. It is EL29 and you can flash to a different recovery from that.

Use Mobile Odin to flash the GB27 repack with Agat's recovery, or one of Agat's kernels (either 1.3 or 1.42f).
This is of course assuming you're already rooted and have Busybox installed.
Also keep in mind that on this device, recovery comes bundled with kernel. And flashing a KitKat ROM will probably require a little more reading [emoji6]

speaking of recovery..
Question this.. which recovery is better agats-cwm- or twrp. I would really wish to know. I know I'm most likely to upgrade my rom/os to either KK or Loli when one comes out for this sgII 4get. so at the present i am working with agats recovery that came with the Gb27. ideas please? and if i am in the wrong again sorry ..

TWRP Manager fail; Flashify success
I tried TWRP Manager first. Selected the correct device, recovery image downloaded fine. The install failed.
I got really worried after the failed install, and I was afraid to reboot.
Downloaded Flashify, backed up my current recovery (which Flashify recognized as "stock"), and then flashed TWRP recovery. I would definitely recommend this method to anyone that's already rooted. Flashify even downloaded the correct recovery for me, giving me the option to select any of the TWRP releases. I'm definitely buying the pro version of Flashify.
How to add custom recovery on T705
Hi,
I spent last 4 hours going through various threads, but can't figure out how to add custom recovery for my Galaxy sm T705. Neither TWRP nor ROM manager seems to support this (or maybe I am doing something wrong). Will be grateful if somebody points me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance

If I'm right, twrp recovery for the T700 should work on the T705. I can't be sure but you should ask in the q and a thread and see if anyone with the T705 has twrp.
Thanks.
In Install TWRP section, under device name, Galaxy Tab S 8.4, there are two listings - klimtwifi and klimtwifixx. Been trying to figure out which of the two is applicable to the model Samsung Galaxy Tab S T705. But as u advise will post in the Q&A section

ThankYou so much.
You Sir are a life saver. Thank you. I was stuck on the Samsung boot screen its all fixed now.
best method to download recovery and install Rom (cm 11)
I am reading that the new versions of twrp are brick in devices. Does anyone have the download link to a recovery version that is known to work and explain what the best way to download the recovery. Would it be Odin or is using flashify OK? I I have galaxy tab pro s T700
Thanks
Even I will be grateful for such a link. I am running a rooted tab s 8.4 (T 705) and don't have any recovery installed

The T700 twrp should work on T705. Go check out the thread in the development/orignal development section. And do not flash 2.3.1.0 as it brings bootloops

There is no link to the older versions of twrp the only link available is to 2.3.1.0 which is what I am trying to avoid. Does anyone have a link to the old version that works with the T700

I went to the website. Here you go! http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/klimtwifi. Is klim the right one?
Thanks I am pretty sure. it is. I Is Odin the best way to flash this or can we do it using flashify without issue. Do you have a link to how to flash a recovery using Odin?

Odin is more safer. Download the tar on your computer and flash it. Or you can try flashify first to be extra safe. Just download the img and let it do its thing. So use flashify first is my guess

Img= flash with flashify
Tar= Odin flashable.
Two ways to install! So if one fails theres another way.

Cm12 is alpha right now. There alot more issues on it. Best to stay with cm11 as everything works but fingerprint sensor.
So i wanna ask about that encrypion pin in new twrp. Anyone can tell me if the encrypion thing and the pin code is nessesarry? I wanna have new recovery but dont wanna flash the ROM again or make the wipe all things.
hello I'm trying to flash the twrp on my t700 so I did with odin way 3.0.9 downloaded .tar and put it in AP section and flashed. Everything confirmed that it uploaded and flashed as well as on samsung screen. But when I reboot into recovery (power-volup-home) I still see the samsung stock recovery. Am I doing something wrong?
edit: I have managed to install it through their application but applying root first.

ROM Help

Basically, I can only access my recovery - clockwork mod 6.0.4.4, and I need a working ROM. All the ROMS I tried to install - carbon and cm 12 - aren't compatible with geefhd4g, which is my device (I think it is the build prop or something). I can flash a ROM, but none of them support my device, and I don't have backups. All I need is a working ROM.
Thanks
Can you put device in download mode? If yes then flash stock rom?

Try this.. but first upgrade your recovery to cloudy TWRP which is also given in link. just need this recovery zip and reboot to recovery then flash rom choosing your variant.

Well I got my phone back to stock LG, but now I need to find a ROM compatible with it. As I said earlier, the few ROMs I found aren't compatible with "geefhd4g".
