I don't know since this is my first trek into Samsung country with the GS4 but i will say if you got your GS4 rooted, Goo Manager install and selecting install open recovery under the Goo menu is basically a 1 click recovery install. Super easy and no work to do at all it just works.
No. Loki is needed.

Does rom manager work with the note2? When I try to backup my current rom it goes to the ASR and does nothing else. I have to boot to get going again.

I am using Rom Manager on my Note 2 right now. Did you flash CWM Recovery before trying to backup your ROM?

Hey guys,
So I am thinking about flashing an AOSP ROM. A lot of them seem to mention to flash in CWM. I currently have TWRP on my phone. Will it be necessary to switch? If yes, how do I go about doing that and will the backups that I made with TWRP work in CWM?
Unless the dev specifically says dont use twrp. Youll be fine. I use twrp, but I also havent flashed an asop rom yet. But youll be fine.

Switch by just using ROM manager to flash cwm and no your backups aren't interchangeable.

To get back to TWRP I just uninstall ROM manager and install via GooManager?
You wouldn't even need to uninstall ROM manager, just use goo to reflash TWRP

Great. Thanks for all of your help you guys!
Not sure if anyone noticed but I checked ROM manager for recovery update and found Samsung Galaxy S4 At&t. Just did a restore from a prior backup with no issues. About to do a new install to see if it needs loki patching or not.
Update-----Just tried installing a Google Edition ROM and got:
***Error System not authorized by At&t!****
Do not install if you are crack flashing like me until there is a workaround. Might need to flash loki patch zip after flashing ROM.

Were you on a Recovery Manager before that auto-loki'd? If you were.. this probally doesnt auto-loki roms and you have to manually apply loki patches for roms like Google Edition and such to work.
Yes I was on auto Loki prior. CWM is not auto Loki but does work. Figured of post up before someone gets in a bind.

This does not auto loki...so you must use a loki kernel after each rom flash.
This has been around for a good couple of weeks. As of now the only auto loki recovery im aware of is ooduhas (however its spelled ) with other recoveries just flash loki doki zip after each rom flash to loki the kernel

There is also a version called philz touch that has auto Loki as well which I've been using.

Since when does Philz have auto Loki? I have philz and I have to flash Loki doki everytime. The shabbypenguin cwm one does but not philz.

Omg, people will never stop getting confused by this...
What you read in that post refers to the RECOVERY itself being loki-patched so that it is able to be installed on our device. That is NOT, in any way, referring to the recovery having the ability to "auto-loki" kernels that it flashes.
its not auto loki.

Guys I have a 1/8 2100 which is rooted via framaroot and Supersu installed. I've read loads of posts saying install open recovery script via goomanager, problem is I don't have a menu button in goomanager. So I click on flash rom and it asks if I have recovery installed, I choose no and to search and download one for me. It finds TWRP and downloads it but doesn't flash it. I can locate it in goomanager/downloads but how do I install it

Think need to wait for the boot.img to be compatible with 1/8GB EU 2100.
Thanks mate, I'll keep and eye on that thread.

Yeah...you have to root device before you can flash recovery.
It'll be available in a next few days - I'm sure...

On 2100? Latest firmware?
Why don't you use then goomanager?
Use xposed module to reduce size / layouts of app and you'll see btn.
If course I'm not 100% that's the problem, I still haven't received my watch...but it should be OK

Didn't think of that, but what's with no boot. Img available not sure how that effects me

Don't know but my guess would be -
TS have unlocked bootloader, so that means you can flash custom kernels.
I guess some dev use boot.img (kernel) add recovery in it and you could fastboot that or flash using some other tool...
I repeat - I still don't have my TS, so all this is just something I think they did.
I'm sure there explanation in OP (thread where's that method)
But if you are already rooted, goomanager should work - at least it would work on phones...

I've downloaded the TWRP. Img file through search for it in goomanager. For some reason probably down to dpi, there's no menu option at the top of the app like there is normally, so there's no option to install open recovery script. With this. img file, can it not be flashed via stock recovery

I didn't know there is stock recovery
As I said, I'll know more when my watch comes...
It shouldn't be that hard but Omate fuc**d us all...
Develipers editon, yeah right...
Crappie firmware, not rooted...uff...
I think KS will never see me again.
It's one thing to fail but to make fouders or backers total idiots - hmm...I'm not buying that...
But we'll see which firmware will my watch have...it's like kids playing and sending those watches...

I cannot make goo manager work for installing twrp. I can't find the script.
Is there another simple way to install twrp recovery ?
Ok guys so I broke my screen called insurance they don't have another note2 so after b itching for a min they are finally sending me a note 3.
I have three questions
Is philz or twrp better for these devices
Is there an all in one tool kit for these phones
Is root install the same for these as note2
Install recovery via Odin and reboot

twrp or philz is just a matter of user preference really.
welcome to the note 3, i'm sure you'll love it.
good luck.

Congratulations! If I were you, I'd use TowelRoot to root your phone for now and run the stock rom (try it out for a while)
That's what I'm doing, freezing various bloatware and have been very pleased with stock rom (for now) another reason I did this was because I didn't want to trip Knox... maybe later
