I have both TWRP and CWM recovery on S3, how to remove one of them? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I have 2 Recovery on my S3 and I don't know how that happen, I thought when you flash a recovery it would replace the existing one, this is the first time I see 2 Recovery on an Android phone.
I rooted my S3 using CASUAL 1-click method, is it possible that CASUAL flashed 2 recoveries? Anyway, I can use ROM Manager to switch the default recovery but I would really to have just 1 Recovery on the phone. How dow I remove one of them?
Thanks

You don't have 2. Its impossible. When you tell it to reboot to recovery, which none comes up?

That is what I thought, maybe I have the wrong intepretation of this ROM Manager tool then. In the attached screenshot it says I have both CWM and TWAP already installed... What does it actually mean?
BTW, as of what recovery comes up when I reboot it to recovery, it depends on what I default it to in ROM Manager.

My guess would be that you have TWRP as the actual recovery, but also have the CWM app installed. If so, uninstall it. I would also download goo manager and have it install the latest TWRP

It depends on which recovery it's set as default before I uninstall ROM Manager. If it's set to twrp before I uninstall the app, it would boot to twrp and vice versa.

Rom manager uses CWM as its default, uninstall Rom manager and problem solved

The ROM manager is overwriting the recovery when you tell it to reboot into recovery. That's why you can boot to which ever one you want. You definitely don't have 2 different recoveries on you recovery partition. Hope that makes sense.

I am also having this exact same issue on an HTC ONE
I have removed ROM Manager but still boots into CWM and I need Twrp for latest Venom Rom
I have installed GooManager abd it asks if I want to install the open recovery script, does the 10 second count down, and then goes back to main screen, does not do anything else
When I looked in ROM Manager it did state Twrp was the recovery but stil booted in to CWM - now I have removed ROM Manager I cant check :/
I have also just checked for CWM APP, and that is NOT installed
Can anyone help please - thanks

Head to your phone's respective forum (carrier or international) and post a question in the Q/A section. You have a popular device so someone undoubtedly will help you there and provide you whatever file you may need.

Rom Manager is not saying you have both installed. That is a configuration screen. It is saying, do you want to install CWM OR do you have CWM or TWRP already installed?

The Verizon S3 does not have TWRP 2.6.3.2 (or 2.6.3.3), which device are you on? The way to uninstall TWRP is to install the latest CWM via Rom Manager or by downloading the img and flashing it in something like Flashify.

Difference between CWM and TWRP?

On my HOX I have TWRP installed. What is the difference between CWM and TWRP? Don't they do the same thing?
Most importantly, will CWM mods work with TWRP? (like the .zip ones) Also, what about de-odexing?
Sorry for all of the questions, I'm new to android modding.
Cwm is buggy. You can use twrp for everything and it's fine.

CWM is the most common recovery, cause its the oldest and most known. But, you can also tell its the oldest, as the UI is... Ugly, compared to TWRP. The "slide to confirm" function on TWRP is really nice IMO.
But yeah, when they say "CWM", they just mean a custom recovery.
Also, TWRP is officially supported on our devices, which is why its recommended above CWM.

It's not 100% bug free but it is much more stable than cwm.
^That, and the TWRP tries to fix the bugs as they are presented.

Good to note too that CWM nandroids are not restorable in TWRP. So all previous backups from CWM are useless once you change.

You can just install TWRP right on top of CWM using a flashable TWRP zip, Goo Manager, or through fastboot.

Another point, the version of cwn for the HOX is an unofficial port and thus not supported. There is an official version of twrp for the HOX, which is reason enough to switch.

CWM was never officially released for our phone. It was a port from another version and isn't perfect. My experience with twrp has not shown me a single problem or even a hiccup.

Issues with Rom Manager

I tried to install this > [ROM][VRBLK3][4.1.1][RLS10] GalaxyMod ¯`•._ The New Transmission - xda-developers but when it finished it said I had unauthorized software on my phone so I figured I'd do a stock restore back to 4.0.4. When I did this and rooted the phone after it did the 2 software updates to IMM76D.I535VRALHE I installed root and Rom Manager. However this time I get no choices in Rom Manager. It only shows my Galaxy S3 phone and shows unsupported. I've done this restore and recover numinous times before with no issues now Rom Manager is acting up and will not let me select any phone. The list just shows 1 phone which is mine that's unsupported. How can I Fix this? I need to restore my backup rom I created with CWM. Urgent Help is requested. Thanks!
Boot into cwm manually by powering down then holding volume up, home and power
Then there's an option for backup restore
Sent from my SCH-I535
It won't install the recovery so I get the stock recovery each time I try that.. When it lists the phones to install the recovery it only shows my 1 phone instead of showing all the available phones like it's supposed too. When I did this before it would show me about 20 phones and all 4 Galaxy Phones on each network now it shows nothing but my unsupported phone.
Download ez recovery and use that to install the recovery.

The problem is my CWM is showing the following and I would much rather use it but it won't let me no matter what I try!
SCH-I535 does not have an offcially supported ClockworkMod Recovery yet. Have you installed a ClockworkMod based recovery manually?
Have you cleared app data? Besides that I don't know must people use ez recovery. The people I've seen use ROM manager usually have problems. All either of them do is install cwm recovery on your phone.
Sent from my SCH-I535
I did a forced recovery install from the advanced menu so now I'm in the Rom Manager recovery menu restoring my nandroid backup. Maybe this will fix my Rom Manager since it restores everything I assume? Maybe after it's done I will see the Verizon Galaxy S3 as an option in Rom Manager?
Nope, still shows unsupported. Did they do an update or something. This is sort of retarded! If I do a manual and view all recoveries I see the Galaxy S3. What gives with that? It still won't flash it though.
Guess I'll get used to EZ Recovery until CWM is fixed. Thanks. Unless anyone else knows how to fix the issue.

Update CWM

I've searched and Googled... I can't find this at all. How do I update my CWM?? I'm on 6.0.2.3. I hear there is a 6.0.2.8

If you haven't already, download Rom Manager from the play store here.
Open the app, and go to the Recovery Setup section and you can update it from there.

I'm going to recommend that you DO NOT use the dd method posted above. Its dangerous. If you were to type the wrong partition, you could very easily brick your device.
If you want to use an img, use heimdall to flash it, otherwise create a tar/tar.md5 and flash it with odin
Or use rom manager
Or....find some other way....dd is dangerous http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dd_(Unix)

I just updated via ROM Manager to Clockwordmod 6.0.2.9 and once I booted into recovery and did a backup, I was unable to reboot the system. I was able to reboot the phone via power + home button power on and installed Clockworkmod Touch 6.0.2.9. I also had the same problem with Clockworkmod touch where it wouldn't reboot the phone.

Using EZ Recovery and those recovery img files at that link work for me to get an older recovery installed. Also verified that I can successfully reboot the phone from recovery again.

[Q] Installing Custom Recovery without Odin?

I am a little scared on using Odin because the computer can crash and it's going to be very, very sad. The firmwares on this devices are insanely large, making it more and more scary.
I have root on my device (using some exploit). Is there any way to install the custom recovery without the computer?
Yes. For CWM download rom manager from play store and for TWRP download goo.im.
On goo.im press menu and press install recovery.
On rom manager there is somthing like that

I do have one problem though.
I have an N8010 rooted with latest stock ROM. I go into Goo Manager, click on the install recovery option and it says that there are no recoveries available for my device. RomManager also says that my device is unsupported.
I changed device name in build.prop to GT-N8000 and to GT-N8013, but to no avail.

I flashed Philz recovery using Mobile Odin. It rebooted and got me to the recovery, but it didn't stay there. I rebooted and there was no custom recovery.
Some roms are injecting the default recovery every boot. It's something with preload partition or something.
All in all, the easiest way to flash recovery is to use dd command from terminal emulator plus it does not increase a flash counter.
su
dd if=/sdcard/filenam.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6
Don't mess up the last digit or you'll flash the wrong partition = brick.

[Q] clockworkmod recovery got replaced by stock recovery on cm11

hello guys
i installed cm11 through one click installer had cwm on it now suddenly after reboot its taking me to simple recovery?!?
dont know what happened..need help
in my rom manager app its still showing current recovery as cwm 6.0.4.5 but when i reboot to recovery it takes me to simple recovery
pls help!
ok edit : when i go to recovery from rom manager app it takes me to cwm but when i do it manually ( advanced power button and volume + power button) it takes me to simple?
edit again : when i click on install from sd card (to install m9) it takes me back to simple recovery even from within rom manager??
first off, get rid of rom manager. itll has so many issues and will cause you many headaches. what you did first is not flash a recovery to your device, you just booted it. thats only for a one time use. you need to flash the custom recovery to have it permanently on your phone.
Reflash your recovery. And I recommend TWRP. I hear complaints ALL the time with CWR due to bugs but never TWRP. I've used CWR in the past on my Droid X. But I've since gone TWRP and I'm never looking back.

use the flashify app, its free, and can be used to flash other things besides a recovery. its a great app. you dont need rom manager to get into a recovery ever. if you press the power button(long), youll get a menu, press reboot. then youll get 3 more option, reboot/recovery/bootloader, press recovery(after you use flashify to flash your recovery).
I recommended Rom Installer over Flashify. It will download your recovery for you and keep it up to date. It will provide ROM updates. Also you can create a queue of zips to flash before you reboot. Then it flashes them automatically. It's a really good app. Way better then ROM Manager. Made by Jrummy so you know it's good . Not trying to bash @simms22. It's just my preferred app.
