I already have TRWP 2.6.3.0 but when I flash TWRP 2.6.3.1.zip and reboot it into recovery I still got the 2.6.3.0. I have Samsung Galaxy R i9103 Android 4.0.4. I want to have 2.6.3.1 version so I can flash omni ROM 4.4.2 TIA
On my XT1032 german, I have CWM 6.0.4.7 recovery, touch version. I have installed CrDroid 5.0.2. As you probably know, CWM has some issue because of which PA gapps can't be installed. So I found another version of gaaps and it installed fine from CWM.
But this made me think... Are nandroid backups of this lolipop rom, I make now in CWM, really ok and really restore-able? I hear everywhere that CWM is abandoned and that I should install TWRP instead. Besides the fact that I'm still not fond of doing it yet (cause I still have some KK backups), how can i install TWRP over CWM, is there some zip I can install, or it has to be with fastboot from PC?

Here ist what i have experienced:
I was on System Version: 181.46.3
Well nevertheless:
It was the most recent version i could get and i wanted to get back to Android L.
I installed CM12 the Following way, I had a lot of problems with that. So here is my experience and everything:
So you need to know, to install CM12 or other CM12 based ROMS you first need to have CM11 installed.
Newer Versions of the recovery might be having problems installing CM11, so i would recommend using PhilZ Touch Recovery. It was working for me.
1st: install PhilZ recovery
2nd: factory reset
3rd: install cm11 (Unified Build, due to no up-to-date-build for XT925)
4th: boot
5th: install latest TWRP XT925/TWRP XT926
6th: factory reset
7th: install CM12 XT925 / CM12 XT926 or other CM12 based ROM
8th: install Gapps
9th: wipe cache/dalvik cache
10: Boot
11: Have fun.
Possible problems:
"This package is for moto_msm8960, xt907, scorpion_mini, smq, xt926, vanquish, this is a xt925" ------> You got a problem with the Recovery, it is too new. Try PhilZ
CM12 Booting, inconsistent Data partition stuff error ---------> you did not install cm11 and did not wipe Data before installing CM12, when coming from Blur Rom
Bootloop ---------> no wiping or you did not install cm11 before installing CM12
I hope this might have helped you.

Heyho
I have an XT925.
I installed the msm8960 Build.
The Reason i used the unified Build was, there is no KKBL build for the xt925.
thanks again, onto the procedure now
just last thing, which version of philz recovery you installed, download link has latest one @esok44

If you come frome OTA Kitkat 4.4.2
you have to change Step 1st: install PhilZ recovery ------ to ------ Install TWRP2710-RAZR-HD_M-KITKAT.img instead then you can flash the CM 11
If you like philz_touch_6.58.7-moto_msm8960.img recovery (it can mount external Memory Card as USB) you can flash it after all installations after Point 11. The only thing that you cannot start directly to recovery from CM 12.1
Hello,
I want to change my cwm to twrp, and I downloaded the twrp img file and nandroid.
Also, I already installed cyanogenmod 10.2 on my tab, so it's Android 4.3.
Now, the build of the twrp is said to be for "4.1.2"
Can I flash this build to my current 4.3 tab in order to switch from cwm to twrp?
Thanks
Hey,
I've got an Shield Tablet with the Y01 Battery.
I installed a custom Rom (5.1.1) and MultiRom, now i wanted to Upgrade on a MM Custom ROM, but the Recovery (TWRP) is version 2.8.7 so it isnt compatible with MM ROMs.
I tried to flash TWRP 3.0 via fastboot, but then I could not boot into recovery again, only into Fastboot. So how do is uninstall the MultiRom Recovery and install a clean TWRP ?
I can't install the Stock Nvidia Rom because this would kill the Tablet. Can I flash the original Recovery only ? Or does this kill the Tablet too ?
I hope you can understand my Problem, sorry I'm not a native speaker..
Thanks mates
