Forget cwm. TWRP works so much easier.

And trust me, I don't say that with ease. I've been cwm user since the beginning. Koush is the man. But TWRP offers so much more and is easier to flash roms since it flashes the boot.img for you

yeah, you can use which ever you want
for twrp just dl goo manager from market, open it, tap menu, tap "Install Open Recovery Script"
it will flash twrp recovery
i was amonra forever the 4ext recently, cwm and twrp only options for 1s atm
but, still best to resolve your issues first, so my recommendation is cwm thru fastboot. it is less likely to cause other issues until you get things sorted

Help needed in installing cyanogen mod 10

Hi everyone. I am trying to install Cyanogen mod 10 but can't because of status 7 error(Installation aborted). I have installed CWM-based Recovery 5(this appears in the recovery menu and this file came from the root package). I have Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3100).I have tried the following method again and again. I have also read the installing custom roms guide but to no avail.
Here's what i do:
1. Install stock firmware(the ORIGINAL that was present in tab when i bought it)through Odin.
2. Install Clockwork mod through Odin.
3. Reboot
4. Go into recovery mode and install root file from external SD Card.
5. Reboot
6. Go into recovery mod and wipe cache, wipe data\factory reset and then wipe Dalvin(something like this)cache.
7. Try to install Cyanogen mod 10.zip from external SD Card(brings up error)
Note:
I have the Cyanogen mod 10 file in external SD Card in ZIP format i.e. i have not extracted anything out of it. I was reading somewhere that u have to extract the file then u get update.zip and boot.zip. But i get boot.img and no update.zip
Also if the solution to this problem is first installing Cyanogen mod 3.2, then please post the link for my device(Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (GT-P3100)).

1-As i know you should install cwm 6.0.10 to be able to install cm10 version 5 can not let you install it
2-put file in internal sd and use gapps of jelly bean not ics
3- use file specific for p-3100 not any other
4- after flashing cwm 6.0.1.0 via odin enter recovery and make nandroid backup with cwm 6 as backup made by cwm 5 can not be restored by cwm6 so nandroid just in case you want to revert to be safe before flash

[Q] CWM paid version not working

Have been using cwm 5.0.2.0 and paid for the 6.0.1.0 update. In Rom Manager it show that the current cwm recovery is 6.0.1.0 but when I put my phone into recovery I am still at 5.0.2.0. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Did you click the top tab to actually Flash ClockworkMod Recovery? if so then it will say the recovery version below the RECOVERY section of the app.
my ROM manager premium app version is v5.0.2.7 but my recovery is 6.0.1.0
So maybe you are looking at the incorrect place on the ROM manager app.
good luck

Yes I chose the touch screen recovery flash and it shows that my current recovery is 6.0.1.0 but when I go into recovery it is the old version. My ROM manager version is 5.0.3.1

I assume you have fastboot working. Flash 6.0.1.0 from their site.

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.0-crespo.img

Contact the ROM Manager Premium team via the Market?

Never did figure it out. Ended up using the universal nexus toolkit on good ol Ubuntu and flashed it that way. Thanks for the help!

[Q] Changing recovery

Hi all
I currently have CWM recovery on my HTC Sensation and want to change to 4EXT
If I flash the 4EXT recovery image to my device, will it overide/delete CWM? If not, what do I need to do (please, no complicated terminology, I'm something of an amateur!)
Many thanks in advance
Rich

do only step 2 from this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631861
and it will overwrite the cwm recovery

It will definitely overwrite cwm but I think it still keeps a cwm folder on your sd card.

Use this tool it is very useful. It will install custom recovery for you.

put the recovery.img in your adb/fastboot folder
open a cmd window and use the fastboot command to flash it
it will overwrite cwm recovery
