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

Samsung GS2 Skyrocket i727
Android Version 2.3.6
Kernel version: 2.6.35.11+
Build Number: Sky-ICS-RC6.75Z
Baseband version: I727UCKJ2
Recovery is CWM Touch 6
MY PROBLEMS:
When I attempt to backup an image, it will give me an error while backing up boot img.
Also it does not allow me to flash CM 10.
I am trying to flash CM 10. What do I need to do make this possible from 2.3.6 and CWM 6?
Is my best (and safest) option to use a different version of CWM (for 2.3.6) then backup, flash CM 10, then update to CWM 6 again?
If so, what CWM version should I be using? Do I temporarily unroot? At this time, I cannot make a backup image with CWM
Any help is greatly appreciated!
This is a weird problem you are having. Try to reflash CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777970 .
I recently rooted my galaxy tab 2 P3110 with Odin and CWM recovery 6011 and i seemed to have wiped the stock android os as i cannot boot into it anymote - the Tablet automically boots into CWM all the time
Then when i try to install Slimrom or CM installer to flash and install a new OS but i getting an error 7 - unverified file so i cannot put any Os back on the device
Can anyone help?
Sounds like you flashed the wrong recovery, possible that you installed the p3100 recovery.
Try reflashing the recovery.

Flashing KK ROMs on outdated recovery will get you a status 7 error. Grab the latest (I'd go with TWRP as CWM support will be ending soon) version from here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548257 update to the latest one you like (CWM is 6.0.5.0) Load up a ROM and give it a go. I put all my ROMs on an external card to be safe. Maybe do that and then just install from such.
p,s. CM installer never works, I dont think our tabs are compatible with it. At least I've never got it to work.But, you dont need it anyways.
I am going to flash the 4.4.4. KatKiss ROM (currently my 101 is on KatKiss 4.3.1)
I am planning a full format / wipe....do I need this or can I just flash the ROM with TWRP?
What version of TWRP is recommended for this ROM? I am on 2.3.1.
If I have to upgrade TWRP, what is the best way to do it? I have heard ADB is not recommended??? What about TWRP manager on GooglePlay?
Thanks a lot - Love the ROM, and the help!

You should be able to just wipe SYSTEM, CACHE and DALVIK CACHE and flash the ROM and GAPPS
IIRC it's fine doing it that way for upgrading, but if you ever wanted to return to a lower version of Android, you'd have to factory reset / format everything
You should be good to go with that version of TWRP, I use 2.3.2.3 but unfortunately the Goo Manager used for upgrading TWRP has been dropped, so you'd need to use a flashable zip to update
Flash from your current version of TWRP, then reboot back into Android to complete the update, once back in Android, you can boot into your new TWRP and flash your new 4.4.4 ROM

hi
did something wrong and bricked my 64g opo, managed to unbrick it from advise on here but its stuck on color os, i have been trawling here and trying things all afternoon with no success. is there a certain rom i need to start with?
i have twrp
thanks for looking
done now
You have to tell which twrp version
And color os roms flash their own firmware so you would have to flash latest cm nightly or firmware zips in general section
TWRP should not be 2.8.7.0 it has some problems with firmware flashing.
I recommend unofficial 2.8.6.0 or the newest 3.0.2.0

twrp is 2.8.5.1
any pointers to the right place to look
Flash twrp 2.8.6 official and flash COS 12.1 OR 13 signed zip ( twtp flashable )Whichever you want , you are up to date now.
