how to replace wrong recovery. - Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

in an attempt to install lollipop, I flashed Android Andi's Philz recovery. I read in one of the posts how he mixed p3100 and p3110 files. Now my recovery only read p3110 files. What is the solution?

try to re flash stock rom, then the recovery will be back to stock recovery, then reflash root and custom recovery by odin/heimdall.
P.S.: By the way, wrong post place, it will be in Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting section

Is there any other way to do it?
Can I force flash CWM or TWRP to replace Philz?

Find proper recovery zip and flash using Philz recovery, if not use Odin with proper Odin file (TAR? I think ) .
You can use one recovery to flash another.
Pp.

Or force to flash proper recovery via Mobile Odin. .Tar recovery file is what you need. And of course Mobile Odin and root access.

[Completed] [q] two recovery sofware in my samsung gt-n7000

I had rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 recently using Philz Touch5 CWM v6.0.3.2 and then I decided to put custom ROM OMNI nightly 4.4.4 -2014/09/09 to have android KITKAT 4.4.4 and I read on some threads that a minimum of CWM v6.0.4.4 and above is required to have KITKAT so I again had flashed or put Philz CWM v6.41.6 and then put OMNI ROM. Now KITKAT is working fine but then I try to backup KITKAT so that I can switch to Stock ROM and Custom Rom whenever I feel like but then while booting up the recovery software was changed by itself and then I show that I have two recovery Software- Clockworkmod and TeamWinRecovery. So problem is I had backed up the new custom Rom but that is done by TWRP whereas stock Rom was through CWM so a big problem is when I want to switch the two ROM. If both the ROMs were done by same recovery then must have been better but now I have to loose either of the two ROM's data then there is no meaning of backup :crying:
i also had installed ROM manager Please help... any advice would be very thankful. and sorry i wrote lengthy but i wanted to describe in precise way

I think it's not an issue.
If you want to go back to stock rom, flash cwm recovery and then restore the cwm nandroid backup.
If you want to restore the Kitkat rom, flash TWRP recovery and then restore the TWRP backup.
And in philz-touch cwm recovery you can set the default backup format to TWRP.
Check [PhilZ-cwm6][n7000] Stock Kernel+CWM6+Root+exFAT+NTFS-LTA thread for details.

Restoring the old backup also didnt work
Sir if I first root the stockrom android 4.1.2 by CWM Base v6.0.3.2 which is Philz Touch 5 and then reinstall a higher version CWM v6.0.4.4 and above then do i need to reboot into recovery again or what all must I do like wiping etc?? literally it must be like upgrading CWM versions. I am just a beginner so have multiple doubts:angel: And Sir I made 2 backups of stockROM one by CWM and other by ROMmanager but the backup by CWM says error while restoring at final end and restoring backup of ROMmanager does restore but there is no Setting Menu and some menus after restoration. Main problem is without Setting Menu!
Sir I am thinking to reflash the stockROM through ODIN by PC so please guide me as to how can I use one Single Recovery Software either CWM or TWRP and then again backup both the stockROM and KITKAT customROM so that I can latter switch to either of the two ROM when I want.
Again sir thankyou for the previous help and I do want ur valuable guide here too

I have already linked the FAQ thread for your device. Please read and ask there.
Maybe flashing back a stock firmware, rooting, backup and then flashing the Kitkat ROM again is a good idea.
Here is the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 > Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General > [STOCK ROMS] N7000 All stock ROMs + install + Root guide All at 1place,Latest 4.1.* thread which explains nearly everything you need.
Additionally, here is a detailed rooting guide: Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 > Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General > [24sept12]How to Root/Unroot Samsung Galaxy Note + CWM
I have found a useful guide to flash Kitkat to your device: Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 > Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General > [Guide] A guide to KitKat
And concering Kitkat installation, you can ask directly in this thread.
And please ask further questions in the threads of your device specific forum ... there you will get quicker and proper help :fingers-crossed:

Tried TWPR, CWM = always get "error 7" when trying to install ROMS.

I had some issues with ROMs, so managed to revert back to stock. Now using TWRP, but only after trying with CWM, all ROMS get error 7, "can't install this package on top of incompatible data", and CWM said something about it being the wrong firmware for a "note4" or something.
I don't know what to do, can you flash roms through ODIN? Please note this is an N8010
Thanks for your help
NOTE 4 suggests you are flashing a wrong file for another model .
TWRP CWM and Philz Recovery and High On Android recovery work on N8010 tested all within the last month .
can you flash roms through ODIN? >> Custom roms no only stock tar files .
I've tried the CM 11, the CM 12 and Android revolution ROM, all supposedly work with the N8010. Revolution Rom was the first, installed but made a boot loop after I applied the N8010 compatibility flash. After that the file structure seemed to double - there was a new folder with all the other android directory inside it. I deleted the doubleup, but now I don't know what to do, it's back on stock.

Upgrade N8000 to MarshMallow

I decided not to throw away my Note 10.1 GT-N8000 because of its quadcore 1.4GHZ (or whatever. i found that in a spec video) I have the custom ZIP. Odin didnt work as the ZIP to TAR converters didnt support more then 300mb but my ZIP was 512. Did I get the wrong ZIP? I'm flashing it V.I.A Android Recovery. because it is hard as HELL to unlock this bootloader. especily when download links are outdated. Basically I just flash ZIP. reboots as normal. Is there a recommended ZIP to flash?
Odin works for stock firmware .
Custom Recovery TWRP or Philz is required to flash zips .
