[Q] Moto G CWM or TWRP Install? 1st Gen Boost Mobile - General Questions and Answers

OK so I rooted my Moto G and I already have super user installed. My question is how do I install CWM or TWRP? I've seen videos where they unlock bootloader then flash CWM or TWRP and then flash Superuser. So should I just flash CWM or TWRP and not flash Superuser? Or...
Thanks!

Bootloader must be unlocked to install custom kernel with CWM... (no pont of CWM on locked bootloader,just can't do it)
Then you may proceed with flashing stuff....

Imposible to flash a custom recovery!!

Hello, I have a really serious problem.
First, I unlock bootloader. Then I tried to flash TWRP recovery. But Its imposible, all drivers are OK, the flash done succesfully. But when i try to enter to recovery, the device was freeze (see the image).
Only i can flash TWRP ok if i flash before COLOR OS. With CM I cant, any ideas?

Can you boot to fastboot and flash a new recovery? try a different one.. maybe your TWRP download was corrupt...

I have the same problem he does, and I can confirm, locking and unlocking the bootloader doesnt do anything. I tried flashing several Stock images and the stock recovery and that didnt do the trick either
Did you try using toolboxes to flash the recovery via flashboot, or root and download rom manager to flash a recovery?

We cant root the device because its neccesary to have a custom recovery for this

This is the first I tried. Root and install TWRP Manager. And didnt work again.
And, I tried to flash Sensei Kernel, and OPO bricks. I had to flash all again by fastboot mode...
I will try with franco kernel
The same for me. I just bought Oneplus One, updated OTA to 38R and tried flash TWRP and CWM recovery by ToolBox or directly by fastboot, but the new recovery doesn't work. It is flashed successfully, but when I reboot into recovery, my phone freeze. I will try Philz recovery now.

[Q] Do you need root to flash gapps with CWM recovery?

This is maybe a stupid question but I am confused and I didn't found a clear answer to the question bellow...
All tutorial say flash CWM, Root and Gapp's.
Is it really necessary to have root access to flash from CWM?
Thanks in advance for you confirmation.

No. If you have a custom recovery (CWM) then you have root in recovery automatically that means you can flash whatever you want.
When you have custom recovery you can flash supersu zip and you''ll have root!

ok, you need to copy the kernel file to the phone memory.
Then flash the cwm file using odin.
Then reboot to recovery and flash the kernel that is stored on your phone memory.
Then when you exit CWM, it will prompt you to root, so agree to it.
You need the right cwm for your model of ohone by the way.

I have the same question.
Does anybody have root on SM-N915FY?
I tried all kinds of cwm and twrp and latest superSU (2.46, Beta 2.52).
Recovery is rightly installed via Odin, superSU correctly flashed (without errors).
Where I made a mistake?
Thank you in advance for a reply and have a nice day!

Yes it works . I have N915FY rooted using twrp 2.8.7.0 recovery and su Beta 2.52 + Micky387 kernel.
note the it will not boot without Micky387 kernel after flashing su Beta 2.52. you must flash Micky387 kernel
I'm pretty sure this has been flogged to death but YOU NEED A ROOT ENABLED KERNEL to get root access...
This has been said many times now with new threads popping up with the same topic, for all variants...

Is there a way to root without a computer
i can't flash the recovery. odis say success but i'll find the stock one. anyone?

How do I root with stock 5.1??

I've tried flashing twrp with odin and it doesn't work. I get errors like 0success/0fail. How do I root after upgrading my firmware to lollipop? The other threads on this haven't helped me. Also, when I try to use odin to flash the recovery files then reboot it says there were firmware issues and then I have to reflash the stock firmware from Samsung again to get the tablet to boot. This makes me think maybe you can't root lollipop on the note 10.1 yet?? Any help will be appreciated.
Update recovery to latest version and flash SuperSU.zip
So flash recovery via odin then use twrp to flash SuperSU?

yes i don't know how to flash a zip without a custom recovery. I've tried flashing supersu, and two different roms made for rooting lolipop on the note and everything i flash involving root makes it bootloop.

Which model is your note? N8000?
SMP 600

Similar Situation
I also have a Galaxy Note 10.1 (from USCellular) and I rooted it using Framaroot, which I downloaded onto my tablet from the Google play store. Before using Framaroot, I tried "CA_Autoroot" but it did not have the specific ".tar.md5" file for my device-- I saw the same message that you saw (0 success 0 fail).
I don't know much beyond this. I did install CPU-Z and Titanium backup, two utilities I have found to be useful.
I figured it out. I was using a rom for the wrong note....
