Am wanting to update TWRP 2.2 to TWRP 2.3. Can I install this new update over the older version of TWRP or do I have to wipe anything first? Have dowloaded TRWP 2.3 for wingray.img. The device is motorola xoom wifi running cm 10.1 rom. Also should I use the afore mentioned download or would a zip file be the way to go? I am using the TWRP 2.3 version on my Nexus 7 and do like it alot. No problems with TWRP 2.2 on my xoom except it is'nt recognizing my ext. sd card. Also on TWRP website they recommend upgrading to latest version when running jb rom. Any input would be great. Thanks!
Found my solution for TWRP upgrade.

Found my solution in Goo Manager. Went to "install open script recovery" and it found the newest version and automatically installed it. Am now running TWRP 2.3.3.0 on my xoom and fixed my problem with installing within TWRP from my ext. sd card.

I currently have 2.3.1 installed on my note. I want to update to 2.6.3 so I can install CM11.
I only have TWRP installed and my current ROM (some verzion of PA) has already been factory reset (aka I can not actually use my ROM/Phone).
In order to update to CM11 I need to use the latest TWRP.
Edit: When I try to install the .zip for 2.6 from 2.3 it gives me an "error" message
Yes, you can. But after flashing the update, you must reboot into recovery (restart TWRP) before flashing anything else.

I recently rooted my galaxy tab 2 P3110 with Odin and CWM recovery 6011 and i seemed to have wiped the stock android os as i cannot boot into it anymote - the Tablet automically boots into CWM all the time
Then when i try to install Slimrom or CM installer to flash and install a new OS but i getting an error 7 - unverified file so i cannot put any Os back on the device
Can anyone help?
Sounds like you flashed the wrong recovery, possible that you installed the p3100 recovery.
Try reflashing the recovery.

Flashing KK ROMs on outdated recovery will get you a status 7 error. Grab the latest (I'd go with TWRP as CWM support will be ending soon) version from here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548257 update to the latest one you like (CWM is 6.0.5.0) Load up a ROM and give it a go. I put all my ROMs on an external card to be safe. Maybe do that and then just install from such.
p,s. CM installer never works, I dont think our tabs are compatible with it. At least I've never got it to work.But, you dont need it anyways.
I am going to flash the 4.4.4. KatKiss ROM (currently my 101 is on KatKiss 4.3.1)
I am planning a full format / wipe....do I need this or can I just flash the ROM with TWRP?
What version of TWRP is recommended for this ROM? I am on 2.3.1.
If I have to upgrade TWRP, what is the best way to do it? I have heard ADB is not recommended??? What about TWRP manager on GooglePlay?
Thanks a lot - Love the ROM, and the help!

You should be able to just wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE and flash the ROM and GAPPS
IIRC it's fine doing it that way for upgrading, but if you ever wanted to return to a lower version of Android, you'd have to factory reset / format everything
You should be good to go with that version of TWRP, I use 2.3.2.3 but unfortunately the Goo Manager used for upgrading TWRP has been dropped, so you'd need to use a flashable zip to update
Flash from your current version of TWRP, then reboot back into Android to complete the update, once back in Android, you can boot into your new TWRP and flash your new 4.4.4 ROM
Latest is here

I have a Asus TF300T that I had BakedBeans on, until I tried to flash to KatKiss. I tried this on TWRP 2.6.0.0 (current version of TWRP installed on my tablet) I saw that it was unable to flash, so I researched and I was told I need the newest version of TWRP to install the KatKiss rom.
Since I have no OS on the tablet (wiped when I tried to install KatKiss), and when I plug my tablet to my pc I get "unrecognized usb device", I am limited to using the external card to do any modifications to the tablet.
I went and got the newest version of TWRP and tried to install it through the TWRP manager, but it says "select zip to install" and the file is a .blob (I don't know how to update TWRP through the main menu I guess)
I have no idea what I should do. I would like a new rom for my tablet, but I will be ok with reverting back to an older rom if that is not possible.
using bootloader version 10.4.2.20-20121228 please help
I managed to find an old version of BakedBeans and installed it, but I can't figure out a way to update do the newest version of TWRP without using the PC USB method, help please.
