I'm using TWRP installed through GooManager. Support both internal and external SD.
Only issue is that, while in recovery, you cannot mount the tablet as USB storage from your PC.
Used to install AOKP, EOS and CM10 without any problem.
Did not test AROMA.

Is that TWRP 2.3 better than CWM touch 6.0.1.4 and why exactly?

Currently using the old version (2.2), never used CWM so I cannot compare them.

Can I flash roms from external SD

I am running rushdroid now with a backup. I would like to try ThaiZ 2.7, but I'm out of space on my internal sd. Can I save ThaiZ to my ext. sd and flash it from there with cwm?

Yes, you can, just mount it from the CWM Recovery and you're set.
Thanks... I thought so, but just making sure.

Are you sure you can flash from an external SD card.
I'm really trying to work out how to do it on a Samsung Galaxy S.
I have a discussion going in this thread (How to flash a ROM with out USB) if you'd care to explain.
If you could provide pointers I'd be most grateful.
Thanks.

i cannot speak for your phone, but as an o3d user and flash-a-holic, i can readily tell you that i am able to flash/back-up roms from/into both the internal and external sd cards. i have done it countless times... if it doesn't work on your phone, maybe you can give rom manager's dev team a message

Start cwm and choose "install zip from sdcard" and on the next screen you have two options one at the top of the list(your external) and one at the bottom(your internal)

That's the way it is.
Go back to the one you had before if you want to flash from microSD.
OK but how can I do it?
I have the old CWM recovery file file but I'm unable to load it from SD card Also i can not run file manager to move files to internal storage
Transfer it from your computer to your TF's internal storage?

Yes the 5.5.0.4 and 5.8.1.8 flash file from the internal storage.
It work great, just keep in mind NOT to use something like the Superwipe script
as it will wipe everything from the internal storage, leaving you with nothing to flash and no OS.

[Q] Installing ROMs

Do I have to have a microSD card to install a ROM? I have the keyboard dock and a regular SD card (or USB flash drive) but I don't know if installing ROMs with the keyboard docked is potentially dangerous.
The latest CWM version from Roach2010 let you flash from internal sd storage.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213723
Whatever you do DO NOT use the CWM from ROM Manager and DO NOT use
Superwipe script.
Uh Oh?
I went ahead and used ROM Manager to flash CWM. It let me use the internal SD and I'm currently typing this on CM9. Why do you recommend not using ROM Manager?

Most peoples who use the CWM version from ROM Manager get recovery boot loop.
Meaning it will keep booting into recovery but if it's working for you than it's good.

Oh, I know what happen...
The default "Backup" function change from ext-sdcard to int-sdcard,
so no space for it to create a backup file...
Therefore backup need choose the function of Backup to external sdcard.
Tested, backup & restore function are fine! Thanks!!! :good:
Thanks, about time we got some recovery love
Any bugs we should be aware of in this build?
seems to working perfect, thanks a lot

I can backup and restore without any problem's on my ExternalSd.
Please check if your sd card is formated as exFAT.
Official Clockworkmod doesn't support exFAT formated sdcard's.
what does silence mean here? does it mean it is so stable and all working good? does it flash themes and wiping properly?
as long as wiping, backup and restore works great on this I think it this is good news. Trying this out.

I'd say so! If there's something wrong with it, you'd hear about it by now.

As I said in the other thread, you're using exFAT which isn't supported.
Also, there is an official CWM 6.0.2.8 now, look here. (his tar has the wrong version number in its filename, it actually is 6.0.2.8)

Sorry, I don't want to come across as annoying but I really am not using exFAT, as I have explained on the other thread. FAT32 was used with a cluster size of 32kb.

my phone GT I9100. I formatted by my phone under ics on my 64gb cl10 card was fat32 about year ago. Recently I upgraded to jb due to boot loop peoblem, I wipe my phone including formatting msd card. This time it formatted to exfat and many problems I had encountered cwm and mobile odin no recognised it. So I should said for 64gb msd, under ics format by phone was fat32. Under jb it will be exfat.
Send via i9100 using XDA premium,
ROM: Stock XWLSD
Kernel: Phil XWLSD V4.35
superSU 1.04
Can you re-upload recovery Odin version (link is broken on the fist page) ?
Or how change cwr version to odin version ?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for port. The recovery won't mount sdcard though so cannot sideload anything. Why is that?

TF300TG looking for TWRP with access to external Sdcard

I have a TF300TG, bootloader 10.6.2.11 unlocked with asus tool.
I have tried various TWRP-Versions including 2.6.0.0, 2.6.30, 2.8.5.0. and Kang TWRP 2.8.7.2
2.6.3.0 is not working since it cant mount anything
2.6.0.0, 2.8.5.0, Kang TWRP 2.8.7.2 are working but I have no access to the external sdcard also I have access to the card in the file manager after booting into JB 4.2.1
I would like to know if there is a version of TWRP wich allows me to access my external card and where to download it.
I would love to use it for Backup and recovery.
Thanks in advance for your help

Please try on your own risk "Kang TWRP [email protected]" https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347781183.
This TWRP is developed especially for TF300T. But it should work with TF33TG as well if you are on the boot loader of the last ASUS stock rom "Jelly Bean".
Thanks ebonit, but no change. No access to external sdcard in Twrp including TWRP File Manager, but access when bootet into JB.
However KangTWRP seems to work, but without access to sdcard. What strikes me is that I have access to the card once bootet into JB 4.2.1
Further hinds welcome
Looks like a very bad SD card, well formated and working in Windows and Android but NOT in TWRP. Problem is solved with new Card.
Thanks for your help.
