Hi
Im currently running CleanRom 3. I want to try out the new Cyanogenmod 4.2. In the description it says CWM, but i use TWRP [latest one i think]. Is it possible to install it without installing clockwork?
No U can't. Cyanogenmod after succesfull instlling, will modify CWM recovery. If you had TWRP, It would hard brick your Tablet. I'm not Quite Sure, but everyone installs CM on CWM. You'd better be carefull if you don't want to have very expensive desk.
Sorry, becouse my english isn't very well, I hope I helped you.
I use Twrp 2.2.2 all the time and. No issues with any of the 4.2 roms.
Yes you can use twrp. Just make sure you use the latest version add that is fixed for multi user support introduced with 4.2 jelly bean. Goto twrp website to make sure you have the latest. That guy in the first reply is wrong saying you have to use cwm.

I used twrp 2.3.3 to flash cm from clean.

You can install the slimdroid port using CWM if you want to install the full version from Lenovo you will need to make sure you have the stock recovery installed. It is tricky but it works. Do a quick search and make sure you understand how the bootable sdcards work. The A1 is almost unbrickable but it can get scary at times as long as you have a boot sdcard you will be fine.
I have been running it for a couple of days it works well the battery drains a bit faster but much better than stock. CM7 is very nice too you can't go wrong with either one.

SlimDroid v7.20 ONLY STOCK RECOVERY
CWM=brick
Good to know the other versions all worked on CWM looks like you will need to install the stock recovery before continuing.

Well, I flash someone's rom with cwm and its very unstable it doesn't have wifi , gapps, and usb mass storage but it has usb debugging, I was thinking to change the files of the recovery to cwm using adb and do a fresh install of gb, is that ok?
The first thing you are going to want to do if you want to go back to stock and that is probably best and then go from there is download the following.

http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~grm08/ideapad/cyanogenmod/stock-a1-ramdisk-2643.zip
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~grm08/ideapad/cwm-5.0.2.7-rev3-ideapad-a1.zip
If you have a 16gb device grab
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23471133&postcount=409
First flash CWM 5.0.2.7 (you can use the newer one later if you want to but use this one for this)
Then if you have the 16GB model flash stock-mbr.zip and reboot into CWM. (if you have a 2GB device this will hose it the device don't do it)
Then flash the ram disk followed by the 2643 OTA.
If you have an issue installing CWM grab a bootable sdcard there are instructions in the ICS threads and use that to flash CWM.
The A1 is almost unbrickable unless you have a hardware problem you should be able to get it working again.
I inatall the alimdroid but the space for install apps is very reduce and the apps can't move tp th sd card is there any form to change that?

I am a noob and have been reading the XOOM Android development recently.
I am thinking of installing CWM touch recovery in my XOOM (602)
Currently it is rooted with CWM recovery 4.0.0.4 version flashed. Also, using JB 4.2 Rom with EOS 4 (nightly 163)
Question:
Can I just boot into recovery and flash the zip file and reboot and it will work? I have read many posts but currently am not confident to try.
Secondly, which version would be recommended? (Any thread or link)
Thank you in advance.
Yes you can do that, however, I I recommend using TWRP as opposed to CWM. Check the development section for the most current TWRP zip.

Thank you very much. I installed TWRP 2.3.3.0 and it is working beautiful.
Excuse my noob-ness.
I'm under the impression that, in order to upgrade to a cm10.1 Nightly rom, I need to change my recovery? But in doing that, there's a somewhat lengthy process... can someone show me how flash a jb rom without a potential bricking?
Sent from my Transformer Pad TF300T using XDA Premium HD app
Pretty sure that you are gonna want to upgrade to a JB bootloader first. Flashing a JB ROM on a ICS bootloader will probably result in a bricked tablet. Just changing the recovery won't work either.
Be be careful with the bootloader you flash too. There aren't many ROMS that run on the newest 4.2 yet. Pretty sure you're gonna need to flash 4.1. I don't run CM10 so you will want to verify the information but I'm pretty sure I'm correct.
A good place to get good info on what is needed to run CM10 is in the CM10 nightlies thread.

if im not mistaken, first you should update official asus 4.2.1 to get newer bootloader before flashing 4.2. based energyROM.
i belive now you have 4.1.1 bootloader, right?
edit: nevermind, missed the cm10.1 -part..

Check the md5sum of the ROM...something may be corrupt
you must first update to 4.2.1 bootloader before you can flash roms based on the 4.2.1 bootloader, silly.

No it runs on the 4.1.1 boot loader. Just cuz its android 4.2.2 does NOT mean that its runs on Asus 4.2.1.

ahh, ok. i stand corrected. thanks.
I'm able to install several 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 based ROMs, but I've tried 3 different 4.4 based ROMs and they all failed. Anything I should know about TWRP flashing 4.4 ROM to D2VZW SGS3? I used Casual to root and unlock. I've jumped around to different kernels but back at stock. I tried a few 4.4 and 4.3 kernels when trying to install kitkat roms but that didn't matter either, still got a FAIL in TWRP. I wiped dalvik, cache and data, and even system, abd a few times more than once. Any ideas?
You running the latest TWRP? Maybe try CWM. Why do you use TWRP?

you MUST use the latest CWM 6.0.4.3 in order to flash 4.4. team wins will not work. i recommend the touch CWM it is pretty sweet.

That's not correct... The latest twrp works fine on 4.4 roms... the only one it doesn't work with is the new liquid and I've flashed every 4.4 rom out there...twrp 2.6.3.1 or cwm 6.0.4.3 are what you need

YevOmega I started with CWM back in the days, but switched to TWRP, something about touch screen menu and OTG that got me. I'm a sucker for technical evolution. I am glad to see CWM Touch is out finally and I'll give it a try if TWRP lets me down or doesn't keep providing updates.

CWM touch used to give issues. Idk if it still does. Stick to regular CWM. I understand that you want touch, as do I, but...

Glad I could help. I'm going to switch to 4.4 tomorrow. Any reason you chose CyanFox and over Gummy or HellFire? I'm not sure which to pick. They seem to have similar cherry picks.
