[Q] Downgrade TWRP Recovery? - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I rooted my phone today, but I have read that unfortunately the newest TWRP recoveries won't install some ROMs. I currently have the 2.6 recovery, how do I downgrade it without bricking the phone? Say, to 2.3.3?
Thanks a bunch.
EDIT: I managed to downgrade it to 2.3.3.0. Now, however, I cannot use the recovery because the touch screen won't work in recovery. Any help?

Where did you read that? That's not right. I think you misunderstood what you read. You want the absolute latest version (2.6.3.0) which has been modified by jrior001 so it can flash KitKat ROMs. You'll find it in the Original Android Development section.
PS. The reason 2.3.3 isn't working is because it's so old that it needs a touchscreen firmware downgrade. You don't want that version anyway, find the one I mentioned above.

[Q] How get Lates Version CWM recovery ?

Hi guys anyone can help me get the latest version Clockwordmod recovery for the rooting process? Please help, thanks ..
well if i understand your ? your looking to root your phone ? correct? if so you will need to root your phone first once your phone is rooted you can download rommanager from android market and it will download the latest avalible clockworkmod recovery to your device
any ? just inbox me
just look for a guide on how to root like the guy above said. what phone do you have? you may also want to look at TWRP as your recovery manager. i was having some issues with clockwork with my evo3d, so i decided to gove TWRP a try. when it comes to clockwork, be careful about the newest version. for some reason my 3d refused to work with anything later than CW 4.0.4 or something like that... odd anyway just makesure you can reflash the old version if you update
If you are trying to port CWM to your device, you can just get CyanogenMod source code from github. It contains the latest CWM source.

[Q] Installing new bootloader: brick-risk?!

My device:
- TF300
- Android 4.2.2. / CM10.1 (10.1-20130621-nightly-tf300t)
- WW_epad-10.4.2.9-20120809 (= 4.1 bootloader version)
- TWRP 2.6 recovery (for bootloader v4.1)
My aim is to update to CM10.2, therefore I need a bootloader version 4.2. I downloaded the latest firmware from the asus-website (TF300T-WW_epad-10_6_1_27_5-UpdateLauncher.zip) and put it on /sdcard.
But I'm in doubt:
- Is the asus firmwire described above the best way to upgrade my bootloader? And can I use TWRP to install this zip?
- If so, do I need to change the TWRP version to 2.6 ready for -4.2 (teamw.in/project/twrp2/97) not at all, before or after I installed the new bootloader?
I know bootloader/recovery issues can easily brick a TF300, so to be sure I ask. Thanks in advance!

I flashed the blob via fastboot. Then flashed recovery via fast boot. Then cm10.2 from recovery. I was on old June build of 10.1 and 4.1 bootloader same as you. Be safe fastboot flash follow guide in q and a section

Same question, but not exactly answered: can you do this without a cable connection with your pc?

Honestly, I'd rather be safe than sorry when upgrading bootloaders. So I would always suggest using the cable connection because it is less likely to fail. You probably could get away without using it to flash stock, but you wouldn't be able to flash TWRP without fastboot, and then couldn't flash a custom ROM. But everything feels safer once you have Nvflash backups.

I was in the same situation as you not so long ago. Was on 4.1.1 with TWRP 2.6.3.0 JB installed. Asked myself these questions repeatedly. I updated via fastboot to the staging partition using the blob within the latested ASUS firmware zip file. The blob file contains, bootloader, recovery, system and boot. This means your are essentially returning to stock everything upon flashing. This was a huge sigh of relief as I didn't want to brick my device because of the same concerns you have. So I flashed via fastboot to 10.6.2.10 then flashed to TWRP 2.5.0 4.2 as 2.6.3.0 didn't work for me for some reason. I heard a number of people say that 2.6.3.0 4.2 is buggy and suggested to stay with 2.5.0 in which I would recommend from experience. Then flash your custom firmware.
Pretty lost by now. I am still (sick of it) on an unlocked Asus stock 4.2.1 with TWRP 2.5. My intention is to change the ROM but was considering CM 11 which I understand does require TWRP 2.6.X at least. I was hoping for a fix for installing navflash on post JB but I believe does not possible so anything that means touching the bootloader makes me very concern.
I was wondering:
- Can I flash TWRP 2.6 (4.2 img file i beleive) directly from my already installes TWRP 2.5 bootloader and then install CM 11? or do I need fastboot process again?
- Is CM 11 worth on the TF300? I just need some stability and reasonable speed after having so many problems with the stock rom.
Thanks.

Yes, CM11 requires TWRP 2.6.3.1.
You can install NvFlash on a JellyBean Bootloader, link and guide is in my signature.
If you bootloader is above 10.6.1.8, you can just flash the TWRP 2.6.3.1 and then reboot and then flash CM11 + gapps.
I think it is super smooth with the OC Kernel.

[Q] installing cm 11 nightlies

I have tried numerous times to install Cyanogenmod 11 nightlies on my HTC One S, but always get a fail when flashing. phone is one s S4 as I am in the uk.
hboot 215
I have the latest twrp version installed
but it wont have it.
I have flashed roms onto it in the past suck as jellybam, Miui and my current daily driver black bean v8, so am sure everything is being done correct.
even tried to instal cyanogen installer but found it doesnt support one s
any help much appreciated :crying:
HI did you use the modify recovery provided by the cm11 tread. It should fix your problem
Try TWRP, and dont forget if you dont have s-off - you need to "fastboot" the image
Yes, you don't necessarily need the latest version of TWRP, but the modified one posted in the thread. Try it! Good luck!
did it

Unable to flash recent roms

I'm not being able to flash recent roms. I keep getting error status 7. For JB 4.2 and later, I can't flash them. I can flash rom 4.1.2 and earlier.
I'm on 3.18 firmware (latest i think). unlocked and rooted. BUT I have S-ON, is that the problem? If I S-Off. will I be able to flash recent roms? I want kitkat on my phone Sorry im noob
What recovery version are you using?
Sent from my Evita
2.5.0.0 i think, ye. that's it. but I tried with both CWM and TWRP, non work. I suppose S-off is the problem right?
Your recovery is the problem. If you want to flash KitKat ROMs you need the modified TWRP 2.6.3.0 by jrior001, you'll find that in our Original Android Development section. Any other ROM you want the official TWRP 2.6 which you'll find here:

Flash it with twrp, flash stock recovery and you should be good to go! You might need to relock your bootloader as you are s-on.

Is it really necessary to relock my bootloader? I need to send my M7 to warranty and I need to flash stock ROM, but I would prefer to leave my root alone, I don't think they would care?
I would think it would depend on how you unlocked the boot loader. If you went the way I did which was through HTC's dev site, then they will have it on record that your device's boot loader was unlocked. I think they would give it an approval to do warranty work since you are being seen as a dev. They will then let you go without 'punished'. I have not had any experience with this area however, so I might be wrong, but I have seen various reports on Reddit lately where HTC has repaired M7's that were rooted and had other ROM's on them with no issue. The Redditor did however, report that it was relocked and back to 'factory' so they had to go through the process again of unlocking bootloader and so forth.
You're an angel, thank you so much for posting this rom!
My phone got soft-bricked after I took an OTA, (completely stock without root! just an HTCDev unlocked bootloader), the logcat during boot was filled with lovely reallocation exceptions, flashed your Rom through TWRP and voila! Lucky I unlocked the bootloader first thing when I got it, I even managed to retain all of my data.
Thanks a lot!
