accordinf with many feedback CMW seems more stable...thank you.
From what I know with d2vzw: Either TWRP or CWM can be used. However, the backups are not interchangeable. And some flash zips may not work with one or the other; hench require one to work. The Dev will state as such.

As many times as you want.
The backups are not interchangeable and that part about CWM being more stable is bull...

I am using now TWRP recovery, never had a single problem.
It works as good as CWM, it's just a matter of taste, I like TWRP's design more.

y would u want to switch back lol? how often are u in recovery anyway to be honest. u only boot into it to flash a ROM. switch to it and see if that alleviates your issue.

its broken... so switch. lol I don't see why u would switch back to something that can't correctly flash jellybean ROMs. Someone correct if I'm wrong but I do believe u need twrp to flash aosp based 4.2
How is it broken? And sk8's recovery can flash 4.2 roms correctly that was one of the first questions he was asked in his 4.2 compile thread.

This has been resolved in the Nibbles thread.
Recovery was not the problem. There's a bug in the installation process within Nibbles for the Base Install. Custom installation works fine. Check my thread for details.

Before I start I would like to thank you in advance for dedicating your time to help me here (assuming that you did).I couldn't find the answers on the forums even though I searched.
1. Is there any way to backup my 2.2.1 froyo rom along with the kernel and baseband and EVERYTHING to make sure that if I take it back for repairs they can't accuse me of anything?
2. I have P500H and not the normal P500 mentioned in these forums, is there any risk of brick by flashing another rom designed for P500? And if it does work, will all of my cellular connectivity (RIL, calls, sms, 3G) keep working?

I don't like *any* of the Jenkins builds as they are pathetically slow for me even on fresh installations
According to me you should either try Oxygen ICS or Rashed97's CM10
Remember the above ROMs are of my personal preference
And if you are inclined to use Jenkins build *try* them

Do remember trimming the ROM before flashing gapps and then thanking my post otherwise you may get possible bootloop
And flash the oldBB fix after flashing the ROM (search it)

2.6.3.0 < 2.6.3.1.
2.6.3.1 is newer and thus contains changes like bug fixes but may also present new issues

I have a TF300T coming in the mail Wed and I'm going to start playing with it here soon, I've been flashing my SPH-L710 for over a year now using CWM and I am very familiar with it but I keep hearing in the forums not to use it, but can't find a reason. I do have about 20 plus hours of reading in the TF300T thread, most people are saying to use TWRP. Just wondering why? I will most likely be running PACman just because I love that ROM.

Personally TWRP is easier to use and you save your volume buttons from being over pressed. I think there was some bug about CWM not being able to flash some ROMs, but I've never run into any problems with TWRP ( that weren't caused by my own stupidity ).
Tip:
Before flashing, make sure your bootloader is compatible with everything you are flashing. Also make NvFlash Backups ASAP.
Ty cmendonc2, that's what I thought about CWM not being able to flash some ROMS. I was reading through the NVflash thread last night and it looks to be very intimidating at first as well as the bootloader. I'm sure it's not that bad, I just need to get the tablet here so I can start playing with it. Sound to me that the bootloader is main central nerve of the tablet. EVERTHING revolves around it.

CWM has problems on this device since JB. It can cause bricks so stay with TWRP which is better anyway.

To be safe, do the NvFlash backups and use the modified CWM recovery that you have to install with that.

Not a big deal. The point is its the easiest one to get started. Once installed CWM will ask to update to a newer version that will support it. Install with odin.

Pretty close to the same thing but Philz touch is gonna have more advanced options included that most dont use. Also going to have touch also which means instead of using the volume keys to navigate and power button to slect it is simply touch based.
