I flashed a half-assed version of twrp from goo manager and it doesn't work right. It's not seeing the right partitions or something. But anyways I need to re flash the correct one anyone know how? Also I'm running Linux not windows.
I did the same thing the other day on my S3. I went and downloaded CWM and then used the messed up TWRP to flash CWM. Everything turned out fine with my S3 so you might try that. Something is really screwed up with Goo cause after I installed TWRP with it it was showing folders I had deleted before I even downloaded TWRP.
Also something else that may be safer, couldn't you just use Casual to re flash TWRP and then download the latest flashable TWRP version and flash it?

I want to try and get the cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM on my phone, but I just tried it through TWRP and it didn't work (kept getting Service Wizard and Gapps not working in beginning). I looked through the forum right here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2121931
and post #5 said it can't be flashed through TWRP. So, now I want to get rid of TWRP and try to use clockwork recovery mod in order to install the ROM. How would I go on about deleting TWRP and installing clockwork recovery mod?
You can install ROM Manager and install Clockwork Mod through there, although I have flashed clockwork mod from TWRP and vice versa before.
I have no idea why but the cyanogemod won't install, and it keeps falling on clock work, I even tried the older versions from 4/20/13. Have no idea what to do now

I have a question.I tried to switch from clockwork recovery to TWRP on my HTC one and what i did was I just flashed the image of TWRP. Now when I go to recovery-all my files are missing in TWRP. does anyone know how to fix this or do I have to flash the ROM all over again. It even tells me I'm not rooted when I am .Thank you for your help.

This is the Verizon Note 2 sub-section. You might want to try in the HTC One, and get better/faster responses.
I have been running TWRP 2 since I got my S4. I decided to check out CWM the other day since I haven't used it in a while. Its really nice but I decided to go back to TWRP. The problem is that it doesn't seem to want to flash with goo manager and I cant seem to find any other method.
I understand that goo manager is the easiest, but is there a reason there is no odin file or other alternatives for the Verizon model S4? Its a little annoying, I loved just using fastboot with my GNex. I don't really like relying on software, I like doing it myself. The .img files are provided but I'm not sure if there is a way to manually flash them. Can I do it with ADB? I think I could package the .img up for odin but I feel like there is a reason not to do this, or the file would be available.
When I go to install recovery script, it downloads fine and says it installed. Then when I reboot its still CWM. I am able to switch between CWM and CWM touch as well, just no TWRP. I am running a Carbon ROM nightly build at the moment.
Any suggestions on how to get back to TWRP? I assume I can use odin to start over from the beginning but it seems like overkill.

The bootloader isnt unlocked so you cant flash via odin. Does goo manager have root privileges. I would try removing the root privilege in your app of choice, re add it then try flashing again. Theres also zips you can flash via recovery of choice. Trying to locate one now.
Edit:
Heres some lokid recoveries that are flashable via recovery.

Okay, so I was trying to install CM 10.2.1, but I got a missing md5 file error, so it didn't work out. I am using TWRP as my recovery, and naturally I wiped everything before flashing, so I then went into some of the recoveries on my sd card to try to restore from those, unfortunately all attempts at restoring have failed,. My next attempt was trying to use the adb sideload feature of TWRP to try to put a new ROM zip file into it, and try to flash that, but TWRP just hangs at "Starting sideload feature" and never really starts it so I am unable to do that. Any ideas on how to get things working? Also why is TWRP unable to do anything correctly? (TWRP v2.6.31)

Why don't you just take the SD card out of your phone and then put it into your computer and move the ROM file and gapps file to it that way?? Unless you don't have the SD card adapter.
I was having random problems with TWRP myself and got Philz Touch and now I'm good. Just a thought.

TWRP 2.5.0.2 is supposedly the most stable loki recovery for our phone. I would try "downgrading" to that first, If you still have problems with 2.5.0.2 then I would switch to Philz Touch. I had to switch to Philz because TWRP just doesn't like my S4 for some reason. It sucks though, TWRP has a way better UI than CWM.

It's just the little things like there's no real graphic interface, it's just a throwback Windows menu, or the fact that dalvik cache needs to be wiped separately, etc.
I'm running CM 11 nightlies, usually the latest.. I've been running CWM 6.0.4.4 for as long as I can remember after initially rooting/loki patching my phone.
Last week, Rom manager notified me that there was an update to CWM, 6.0.4.7. I thought "cool" - and I flashed it via Rom manager, which reported this was a success.
However, whenever I rebooted into recovery, I still had CWM 6.0.4.4. I tried again, fail. Decided to clean flash my next nightly and try again. Same thing. Could not get Rom manager to update.
I flashed over to Twrp using goo manager which worked fine. I used Twrp to flash over to Philz touch which worked fine.. anytime I use Rom manager now though, it seemingly does nothing even though it reports a success. For example, if I am on TWRP and use rom manager to flash the latest CWM, I'll be met with a success but a reboot into recovery leaves me still with TWRP and no CWM.
I guess I'm just wondering if anyone can help me figure out what's going on -- I know I've seen others at least in the CM forum post about Rom manager acting similarly, but I also hear reports that it works fine for others. Ultimately I just ended up making a 6.0.4.7 flashable zip of my own to upgrade but I'd rather get things figured out vs make a new flashable zip anytime an updated version of CWM comes out.

Where do you get the 6.0.4.7 zip? I've only been able to find the .img file on the rom manager/cwm website...
Going back to my htc days n adb using it was fastboot flash flash {recovery name}.img. maybe using something like flashimgui or flashify.. just thoughts of course other than that u would need to convert to a zip file

Nice! Flashify does it beautifully. CWM touch even. I cannot believe I'm just now trying this app!

Nothing immediately apparent, I'm just OCD about running the latest/greatest.
I have a sprint g3 that is rooted and running twrp 2.8.0.0. I am trying to update to the latest recovery version. I downloaded Goo Manager from the play store and when I click on install openrecoveryscript, it says unable to find a recovery for your device. I know the latest version is 2.8.0.1. I tried going to twrp website but could not find it there either. With Goo manager, I installed from the play store but when I go to google play and do a search for goo manager, goo manager does not come up. I also checked in my All apps and goo manager is not listed, this is very weird. I was going to uninstall, then reinstall but goo manager is not in the play store. Anyone have any suggestions??
After doing some extensive research, apparently the goo servers are down for service. Does anyone have the updated version 2.8.0.1 of twrp for the sprint g3 that I could upload, thanks.
Look in the original Dev section. There's a 2.8.2.0 version (I believe) and it's flashable in recovery. No need for goo manager. I'm not even sure if one you got from too would be properly bumped.

[RECOVERY][BUMPED][LS990] TWRP touch recovery 2.8.2.0 [12/13]
Twrp 2.8.2
I flashed it with Flashify and it works o.k. :good:
I flashed with twrp and it worked good.
Have a question, I see version 2.8.4 is out. I went to the twrp website, it said I could download and install through twrp manager which I already have installed. I downloaded from that app but then this window came up and I am unsure about. I will try to post a screenshot.
Also, I am on a spring LG g3. How do I know if this twrp is bumped or not?
I don't want to brick my phone and it said if I'm on the wrong partition, I would brick it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
It will not brick your device. Partition is correct. If it s not bumped you cant access recovery that s all.

Thanks, I flashed through twrp manager and all appears good. I don't know if you know anything about live backup in twrp manager but I did a backup from twrp manager and it only backed up two files, just data and system which I thought was weird. Live backup does a backup without booting into recovery so you can still do things on your phone while its still running. When I do a backup via recovery, there are usually about 10 or so files when it gets done. But when done with live backup, there are only 2 files?? Anyone have any suggestions on this? I paid to get live backup through twrp manager so I would like to use if at all possible.

Just curious, I thought if you installed TWRP thru TWRP Manager - that it only installs TWRP and not BUMP along with it.
I was under the impression that TWRP and BUMP were installed together if you used Flashify.
How do I tell if I have BUMP installed? Is there an app like Bump Checker (i.e., Root Checker) - I ask, because I can get into recovery - does that mean I am BUMPED?
Thanks!

If TWRP is working for you then you're good.
Only install TWRP's from this forum to be safe.
The G3 versions of TWRP that TeamWin posts for download are pre-bumped except, possibly, the T-Mobile version.
Thanks meyerweb! That was so confusing to me before, whether or not I was bumped or not!
