I have been reading the custom recovery threads.
Is there a custom recovery that is working w/o bugs for Moto G US?
All of them are working properly. You just have to choose the right version according to your rom (gpe are special) or boot loader (4.3 or 4.4)

They were buggy. I eventually found a link to a TWRP-2.6.3.2 and flashed with Flashify and its smooth sailing now.

I am a noob and have been reading the XOOM Android development recently.
I am thinking of installing CWM touch recovery in my XOOM (602)
Currently it is rooted with CWM recovery 4.0.0.4 version flashed. Also, using JB 4.2 Rom with EOS 4 (nightly 163)
Question:
Can I just boot into recovery and flash the zip file and reboot and it will work? I have read many posts but currently am not confident to try.
Secondly, which version would be recommended? (Any thread or link)
Thank you in advance.
Yes you can do that, however, I I recommend using TWRP as opposed to CWM. Check the development section for the most current TWRP zip.

Thank you very much. I installed TWRP 2.3.3.0 and it is working beautiful.
Hi guys
Lately I have rooted my xperia mini and installed CWM using xparts. Anyways my bootloader is still locked and i'd like to upgrade it to 4.1.2 at least. So is there any way of doing that?
I'm using stock Ics rom and stock kernel.
If there are custom roms available for your device,you could flash them with cwm

Isn't it impossible to flash costum roms on a locked bl
device? I was kinda wondering if I could flash a stock sony jb kernel. Could that work?
If your cwm is for locked bl.. Then there shouldn't be a problem to flash a custom Rom. The Sony kernel your talking about should be supported by your device. I advice you to check your device forum
Pressing the thanks button is better than typing it.. Be Lazy Think Crazy ?
I ported CWM using CWM for GPE and CWM Touch for Motorola Edition images.
How to install:
Connect Moto G with GPE firmware to computer in bootloader mode, open CMD or Terminal (for Linux and Mac OS X), choose file location as current folder and paste this:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery CWM_GPE_touch_falcon.img
Bugs:
On Lollipop have some screen freezes, but touch and all features work fine.
Download:
See attachments
So basically this recovery supports lollipop gpe??
I mean no graphical glitches??

Yes, it is fully functioning, only graphic bugs in the form of floating strip on the screen.

I didn't flash other ROMs instead installed GPE, but it flashes other zips fine.
Maybe CM 12 must begin support GPE file system, if everyone have problems with it.
So does this work any better than TWRP ??

Is there TWRP for GPE? I only saw for the Motorola Edition.

It works for both, as long as the recovery is built with f2fs support, /cache and /system still use ext4 on xt1032.

I have tried to put cm12 on my phone and it says that recovery is not compatible.
Does it matter that i have 4.4 bootloader on my phone? Is there a way to update the bootloader easily? Thanks!
Please update your recovery to CWM 6.0 4.8+ or TWRP 2.8.0.0+. Also, if you're flashing the latest nightlies, yes you have to upgrade your bootloader. And no, you don't need to flash to stock to do that - simply flash the bootloader partitions via fastboot.

Where do you find the bootloader to update? I've been looking all over XDA and Google for a while and still haven't found anything.
Edit: Never mind, I found it on youtube
I think you should install recent ROM for that

So today I decided to install CM12.1 after finally unlocking the bootloader and installing root but when I installed it normally it wont boot. In fact any custom ROM I installed it wont work. I was originally on Stock 4.4.3 and even tried the guides here for solving the problem but it wont work! Help please?
Restore to the stock Android 4.4.3 and then OTA to 4.4.4 and then OTA 5.0.2 to get the new bootloader and now you can flash costum ROMs.

Cant OTA to 4.4.4. as my phone will get hard bricked. Already flashed Lollipop bootloader and still on 4.4.3.
Flash and boot CM11 first. CM11 builds are deleted by the official server, but can be found by searching around the web.
