Which is Best recovery for Android - Micromax Canvas A1

Hello guys I was gonna install Recovery into my Android One (6.0.1) device but I found 4 recoveries in Android One Toolkit named as:-
1 - PHILZ
2 - CWM
3 - TWRP
4 - System (I will ignore this)
Now I am confused as hell which one is best among them (Top 3) ???
Give me your opinion guys coz I was on CWM and when I flashed Stock Marshmallow 6.0, I lost my recovery and root access !!! So i guess my CWM was outdated and don't support on Marshmallow anymore :/
Help me in picking the best among above Recoveries Thanx in Advanced ;p

Recovery changed after installing new PAC rom

When I installed OpenSEMC beta-2, I got the Team Win recovery which according to me is quite brilliant. After I updated to PAC rom version 22.1.1 (or something like that ), The recovery was changed with a buggy version of CWM- recovery. How can I get the Team Win recovery? Do I have to flash the kernel again?

hi guys, im noob so i can't write anything in Android Development section. I have just updated PAC ROM to 22.4, before that I was trying to make backup of ParanoidAndroid Settings ( Settings/Hybrid Properties/Tolls/Backup Preferences ) but i get the message "sucsesfully backed up properties.conf to null/backup/[date].conf" but when i tried to restore these backup i get message ""No backups found".
Is it a bug ? or Im doing something wrong ?
It's normal. It's never worked. Lol. Don't worry

One more question, does autorotate works on 22.4? I have enabled this option and it is not working :/
I havent flashd kernel after flashing ROM ( I know that kernel is installing with ROM but its probably better to do it separatelly ). Pls help.

Not trying to be an asshole but i don't see why people keep posting threads like this.. Yes the T-Mobile note 3 can flash international ROMs.. All you need is a kk supported recovery which should be the latest one out,WiFi/Bluetooth fix.zip and the proper kernal. That's pretty much it..

[UPDATE-23-5-2014 20B KK+KNOCK CODE] Flashable Stock Kitkat rooted ROM [802 only]

I am making this thread so as to save all the troublesome steps in making a flashable ROM and risk of bricking due to mistakes.The ROM is made following the instructions from @somboons thread I have made this ROM by myself using G2 kdz extractor which is also available in a thread in xda. The Kernel and the Baseband is made by @savoca and our dear @Cloudyfa for that we must thank them and give credit to them for that fine work.
Thanks to @Jeevandon92 for uploading the flashable 20b zip file

Hate to ask but Can we have one for the d803 and i will test it. Its been released a few days ago
If we flash this, does it allow for OTA updates from LG (if/when there are some) or does this 'disqualify' the ROM? Just interested in seeing stock again some day, I get lots of different wants, side effect from the mass dosage of pain meds for severe chronic pain hah.
Thanks for any questions answered.

You will get OTA BUT since you would be rooted with custom recovery it will bootloop. I suggest flash and wait. Xda will surely have someone posting any updates. I will make flash able zip rhen which you can use later

I like this because is more stock-perfect than others.

Since this ROM have recovery, if we want go back to JB, can it be by flashing nandroid backup via recovery or should flash kdz file?
No you would be required to flash Know unless you have jb baseband

As I wrote a couple of posts above, I went through the installation process starting from CWM, precisely this version modded by Cloudyfa.
I have TWRP 2.6.3.4 installed. Can I do it? if not how can I downgrade it to 2.6.3.3? thanks and does it matter if the phone 16gb or 32gb

hi!
1. i think you have installed pranjals rom v1.1 with stock recovery. Please tell me the color of the text when you boot up in recovery. Is it blue or orange?
2. If you have installed with stock recovery, then it is fine, I will provide you with CWM recovery which you can flash via SP tools. It is a small file.
(please quote this text when you reply, because then I get a notification. Then I can reply faster.)
---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 AM ----------
For guys who are new and downloading all the updates step by step after v1.1.
1. Install pranjals rom with cwm recovery and not stock recovery. If you have stock recovery, then I will provide you with the CWM recovery. There is no need to download the full v1.1 again.
2. It is recommended to directly flash v3 direct upgrade file. You can flash it over any version of my rom. It will save a lot of data and time and confusion.
3. While doing this, do not worry about OTA. It will automatically be updated.
4. When you are fully updated, then OTA will show you some error. Do not panic, it is something I did so that the updates will be of less size.
5. If you are not fully upgraded, then OTA will show that an update is available.

the zip file (which you are referring to as OTA zip file) cannot be flashed via SP Tools. It needs to be flashed by CWM recovery.
