Hey, I want to install the AOKP ROM that I found here, but I need CWM 6.0.4 in order to flash it, but I already have a version of CWM in my Tablet. How do I update my CWM? Do I just install it as if i didn't have any CWM? Or is there something else I should do? Bascially, what am I supposed to do in order to update CWM? Thanks!

Just go ahead and flash the latest version from within your CWM recovery. BTW, may want to try TWRP because CWM is no longer going to be maintained. or updated. Just an FYI You can find the latest here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548476

Do I need Rom manager? What are the benefits from installing it if I already have clockwork mod recovery?
Anyone? Will I have conflict with clockworkmod recovery 5.x I don't want to mess something up?

I don't see there being a issue but honestly iv'e used both and i prefer 4ext.. it's much cleaner and better layout.. If this helps thank me =)
You don't need rom manager but I've found it to be useful. You shouldn't have any issues installing. It might just prompt you to update the ClockworkMod version if you don't have the latest.
Should not be an issue...but I don't have a need for RM!
Thanks to all!
Is it possible to get my hands on a stock 8.6.5.21 after trying to root with Razorclaw? This root involved using a 8.6.6.19 fw, but not it's slow as... :S
I'd rather not lose my data, if possible.
Cheers!
Hey if your ClockworkMod is working fine then download the 8.6.5.21 from the main Asus website nd put it on your external sd and go into clockwork recovery then go into install zip and install it
Thanks! Now I need to install clockworkmod
I had a similiar question, are the updates available from the ASUS website full ROM's or incrimental updates to the prevoiusly released FOTA versions?
Can they all be flashed via CWM to over-write an existing ROM? Regardless of the current version of the firmware on the phone(assuming a data/cache wipe to be safe)?
Do they overwrite the recovery partition or do you need a copy of the asus recovery to flash back to stock recovery?

There is an app called RecoveryInstaller.apk ~~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346180 ... IF YOU ARE ROOTED, then you can use this app and it'll install Clockworkmod for you.

The ASUS website ROM's are full ROM's. You can flash the stock ROM with the clockworkmod, however you won't be able to update unless you flash back to stock Clockwork. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154947 click that link to download the stock clockwork.

Yep i had already grabbed that recovery file, my biggest problem is that i have a B40 that nachoroot doesn't work on and now my USB doesn't work properly so if i **** something up i have no recourse to fix anything via nvflash or adb.
Good Morning,
After searching all of 100 pages in the post for the Hydro rom I have a question that I didnt find in the thread.Im on latest JB/OTA update for my TF300t and I have flashed the CWM recovery after unlocking my bootloader.Now,I want to install the latest Hydro rom but the developer is suggesting the latest TWRP for the rom.
My question is,will i be able to flash the rom using CWM or do I have to use twrp?If so will i end up with a brick if i side load twrp along cwm?
The only place i didnt check is the youtube video instructions since im on a restricted network...
Anyone?
Im really itchy to flash the new rom I just need to know if i can flash both cwm and twrp or if it is safe with cwm already installed to flash twrp on top of it.

It is an either or situation. There is one recovery partition and you can have stock, cwm, or twrp. You can't have more than recovery installed at a time.
There are a lot of issues being reported with cwm recently. Since the op says twrp I used twrp. It may or may not work with cwm.
Be aware that a backup made with cwm probably won't restore with twrp or the other way around.
Good Luck!
So I just rooted my Verizon Galaxy S3 and unlocked the bootloader. I flashed Clockworkmod recovery using Rom Manager to update to the latest version. Made a nandroid, installed Titanium Backup, linked it to my Dropbox and uploaded. I downloaded the latest CM10 nightly to flash but the stock android recovery appeared instead of CWM. Found some info that I need to flash a clockwork compatible kernel first. The questions I have are: If I install the latest CM 10 nightly will it automatically install a clockwork compatable kernel? If not, where can I download it from? and if I do need to flash a kernel first can anyone give me detailed instructions how to do this as i'm relatively new to this stuff and don't want to brick my phone. Thanks, any info would help.

I did, had it unlocked and rooted. I guess there was some sort of issue with Rom Manager on the S3. I use it on my Galaxy Nexus and have no issues. I ended up abandoning what I was doing, uninstalling Rom Manager and going a different route. I have no prior experience with Odin but figured out how to install CWM . Downloaded I535vrblk1, flashed CWM, unlocked & rooted again. . Thanks anyway for the reply.
You can reinstall ROM Manager. It is something to do with some of the newer OTA's and the leaks. I have read a few posts in the forums about this in the GS3 and I really can't remember the fix but your recovery not sticking had nothing to do with ROM Manager. I think the fix was when you rebooted to recovery to flash a kernel right away, whether it be KT747, LK, or any of the other. Now that I typed this I'm about 99% sure that was the fix. Like I said above though, it has nothing to do.with ROM Manager, so if you're like me and find a lot of the tools in it handy you should be able to reinstall it. If you have a problem again just flash a kernel.

My i815 is on its way to SAMSUNG repair in texas. I tried to root it to install a custom rom and ended up in a bootloop. I did try a bunch of stuff to try and fix it.
Anyways, I have been reading up in the forums and am getting a bit confused:
Do I even NEED to be rooted to install a Custom ROM? Do I just need to install CWM from ODIN (bootloader? or pda?, confused there as well). And then install the ROM I want from within CWM (install from external zip)...
Or, is the i815 so "special" that it requires root?
THX!

I thought it was different for the P68xx and the i815? Can someone with a i815 confirm? If I don't HAVE to root, and all I need is CWM falshed through Odin (PDA), then install zip from CWM, I may try again.
Thx!!!
