I'm using the lg phoenix but it doesnt give me an option for it

check this for root : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137762
and this for cwm : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager&hl=en
and be careful with ROM Manager! Choose the 1 which says OBB (Old Baseband). DO NOT attempt to backup. Once you get CWM installed, uninstall ROM Manager, & do not use it again

Cant install custom rom

After rooting and using rom manager to cwm "choosed i9000"
after rebooting I cant find install zip
when i tried to cwm by replacing the update file in sd card it gets some error
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
Im very new to android
You must install the custom Recovery. Follow steps below.
When you reach to the 'replacing' recovery file, make sure you delete the old one. When your in recovery mode, make sure you install packages twice before you see CWM recovery.

You need to pay for the updated root explore. I had that same issue where changes did not take affect. I was going out of my mind.
Once I paid for it, I was relieved that it took the changes and was able to put custom clockwork mod recovery.

Recovery?

Anybody know where to get a recovery that I don't have to flash and don't have to be rooted because my coms down and I can't root it. Z4 doesn't work
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
If i was to recall, it's not possible to get a custom recovery without rooting it.
You could always use stock recovery if that's what you want? ^^
Well that's just it I don't have a recovery anymore it died (personaly idk what happened to it it just stoped working and froze when I wanted to get to recovery..)
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
You got to have root or your phone won't let you install a recovery. Once you have root, you can install CWM recovery via the RomManager app (free in Play store) according the the sticky in the dev section...
Reviewers said:
CWM
Follow the instruction's of that thread then download Rom Manager on your phone & install the recovery for SK4G also then reboot into recovery then reinstall package's . Enjoy .

As said above, just go to playstore and search for rom manager, by this way you won't brick your phone.

Even I'm unable to boot into recovery mode. I'm using the HTC One V.
I tried to boot into recovery mode by titanium backup, ROM manager, bootloader... But it just resets my phone.:crying:
You need to install recovery first by LGMDP or ROM Manager

Use Rom Manager and flash Clockwork mod
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
use rom manager with precaution go to a good coverage area then use it
but i suggest u not to use it
as of myself it took my phone to fastboot mode twice
use terminal emulator method
but u should be rooted
download any recovery image(google it) and flash_image(google it )
place the flash_image in /system/bin and change it permissions and then place recovery.img into /sdcard/
and open terminal emulator (download frm market)
and type
su
and press allow
now type the following
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
and if i helped u press thanks
and dont use rom manager its too risky and i will say use amonra 3.0.6
insteade of cwm

i am stuck at the same thing. it keeps going to the stock recovery area not cwm
If you achieved root then why not just download ROM manager (play store) and flash CWM through the app or if you want TWRP instead which I recommend the get the goo app from the play store and flash TWRP through that app in the same manner.

Problem after flashing incorrect Rom on S3

Hi,
I accidentally flashed the Verizon version of the MOAR v9.0 on my Galaxy S3. I install the Sprint version of the ROM using Rom manager but a page comes up that says "Root access possibly lost. Fix?" This can not be undone and no matter if I hit No or Yes, I don't get the usual installation of a new Rom. Please help.
Can't you boot into custom recovery?

I don't think I have a custom recovery installed. I do have some old backups in Rom manager it looks like from early 2013. However, when I try to run them through Rom manager, I get the same error about "root access possibly lost"
If you can get into "Recovery Mod" then try to download a rescue firmware (A firmware which consists of 4 seperate files + A PIT file) then flash it using Odin into the phone. That should fix your problems.
Then try rooting it again
