Is it possible to use goomanager to install TWRP after the device is rooted with cf root?

Yep. That's the easiest way to do it.

Yes, though having a Nexus device, it'd be good for you to learn fastboot/adb. Comes in handy.
Cool. Thanks guys. I guess is this correct?
1. Cf root
2. Goomanager for twrp
Twrp will stick right? I saw some people needing to flash like 6 times before twrp sticks.

As aznk3vi17 says, go the adb fastboot way. You'll be better off in the long run than using a bunch of easy tools. Sooner or later you're going to get yourself into trouble where they'll come in handy.

Yeah but when you download twrp the page go to 403 error.
Thanks guys. I guess I will do it via GooManager.

No you won't. The download page doesn't work.
I'll probably do it later then.
IIRC it's been like that for a week or more. Just do the ADB flash. Or use Flashify. That's just as easy as Goo.
Download the Flashify app, download the TWRP recovery img file to your phone and install with flashify from your phone.

Or just fastboot flash the recovery on. It takes 20 seconds tops.

Correct. As long as you have the img file and not zip.
You'll just go in to your downloads and tap it, install with flashify and you're done. Restart the device in fastboot mode and scroll to recovery to make sure it took.

Just don't use goo manager to flash roms. It's way too easy to find a rom that is not for your device and flash it. I'll use goo to put on the recovery and then remove it from my phone

It's possible but not likely. If anything it just won't over write the stock recovery.
when trying to install TWRP with goomanager says 403 error when downloading, why?

Use flashify. That's what I did.

I don't know do that, how i can do that?I'm very new with Android
For some reason I can't get flashify to work. When I press on the IMG I want to flash it doesn't do anything.
But I also know how to use adb so it's not a huge issue.

If you do not have a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP) installed then yes it should install successfully.

And what if you do have a custom recovery installed? I rooted, unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM for backups. Haven't done a custom rom yet -- just installed a few apps that required root.
Any ideas on what the OTA update will do?

I'm wondering the same thing...
The same as what happens on every other OTA, it will fail upon trying to install and you'll notice because your phone will be in CWM or TWRP.

And how do I disable CWM or TWRP? I used EZ-Recovery & EZ-Unlock originally. I see a "stock" option in EZ-Recovery. Would I select that, hit flash, then select reboot recovery? And on EZ-Unlock would I just select the "lock" option?
Thanks!
---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------
FYI: Just read this over at Droid Life:
"For anyone interested, I was rooted and had EZ-Recovery installed. When my S3 rebooted it went to the recovery after the update "failed". It gave me the option to apply the zip and I did so. and it even asked me if I wanted to fix root (I did not do this part). When the phone booted it stated that the update had failed, but in checking my Android version is definitely says 4.1.1."

Use EZ Recovery to flash the stock recovery. No need to re-lock your bootloader since the OTA should do that for you if you haven't installed anything that would cause it to fail like Google Wallet or CWM/TWRP.
I know many people prefer to Odin to a stock ICS image then take all the OTA's so that's another option for you as well.

I support. This seems like a boot.img problem. Try to make it via PC while the phone is in fastboot mode.
This is for a galaxy s3, would download/odin mode qualify as a fastboot mode? :S

I would recommend using the latest twrp. I find it much more reliable than CWM. Just my two cents.

Make a flash able zip for boot.img.
.img cannot be flashed through custom recoveries. .
Only zip file can be flashed.

Great app but this isn't an official one.
The XDA thread has been closed and there's no update on Google Play for 2 months.
I don't know if jmz still has other projects... Flashify is also a great app to directly flash the img files without a PC.
I heard that
Code:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
works pretty well...

It doesn't hurt to know all the options and procedures. Actually OP would have already known this if he hadn't used a toolkit to root in the first place
-1 for toolkits
But yes, options are:
Fastboot flash img
recovery install zip
Flashify flash img
Thanks to all for the help suggestions , but yeah I used a tool kit which means I don't know how to do it manually that's why I asked for the easiest way to update .

It would be good to learn how to do it manually. It's really pretty easy. And you'll know your phone better and know how to do things yourself.

That prompt always screws things up, sometimes either if you press yes or no. Should stop using cwm really. Use Philz or TWRP.

I don't know from experience, but you're probably best off reading through the mod's thread and looking for compatibility issues. Most devs will write in the OP if there's a known issue, but you can't necessarily count on it. Best bet is always reading and/or searching.

Read the OP`s of the sound mod`s if they`re compatible with odexed stock, i think they are but better check it.
OK thanks. Instead of a zip would this work fine without bricking/bootloops
