You cant use ics stock recovery to root… they fixed the whole for the update way when ics4.0.4 came out.
Have you tried the recovery in my faq thread… ill look and see if it will work with the 3g model.
Edit… .not sure if that recovery i have in my thread will work..its for the wifi model..but why dont you find a recovery in the threads and if its a zip… pull the boot image and there you go..

Odin a recovery… any new recovery. I suggest twrp. Then use adb to or what ever to push a rom to the tablet. Use the new recovery to flash the rom zip.

See this post.
The new Clockwork Recovery helps get around the e3 issue. load ROM manager and update CWR. Reboot into recovery, then scroll down to reinstall packages. you may need to do this twice until you get to the green recovery menu. This should allow you to install the new ROM.

Is there any way to uninstall a recovery mod? I install ROM manager app and it says there are 2 installed recovery mods. CWM and TWRP. I want to remove TWRP. How can I do? It also shows that we need to update both mods but even if i ask it to update its not updating any of the mod. Can anyone help?
You can have only One recovery installed at a time. More than one is not possible. Must be an error.

Hi You can flash the stock rom via SP Tools and then flash the TWRP recovery via SP tool it will remove all other recovery and only one TWRP recovery will be there. After that you can flash whichever Custom Rom you want.
Press Thanks If I Helped You...........

Dude power off your CHD. Now press volume down then volume up then power button. Now it will start booting into recovery and now press volume u now check which recovery you currently have if its CWM then leave it no problem. If its anything else and you want it to be replaced by CWM then download mobile uncle tools from playstore. Go to recovery update place the CWM image in the root and select this file. Your phone will boot and now you will have CWM installed.
If you don'y understand the process. Then check my guide on how to root + cwm noob friendly.
Hit thanks if i've helped.
I'm in the process of flashing CM11 from JellyBeans, and am stuck booting into recovery mode. I attempted to flash the latest CM11 nightly release using TWRP recovery 2.5.0, which failed. I then tried to reboot and it said that I had "lost root permissions" and asked if I wanted to fix them, which I agreed to. Now it will only boot into the TWRP recovery mode.
Here is the text from when I try to flash the file.
Checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.

Whats the best way to update to CWM recovery? I'm still a bit inexperienced with all this, since this is my first android.
Flash latest CWM

You can download the latest zip (6.0.4.3) and flash in your current recovery, or use a tool from the market place. Something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools&hl=en

So I can just flash the 6.0.4.3 zip just as I would a ROM? Also, this link only supplies a .img file. Where can I find the .zip?

Live and learn! :good:
We have all been there. Always make a backup before flashing anything.
I also was not able to flash CM11 using TWRP... Assuming you can transfer files to your SD Card (microsd adapter maybe?) try flashing a 4.2 touchwiz based rom and see if that gets your phone to boot. Once you are back on, download the ROM Manager app and use it to install CWM. Then reboot into recovery (it will now be CWM) and flash CM11. Make sure you have the correct google apps zip as well.
Question... did you wipe memory/cache?
Hey,
As i don't have enough posts i have to make thread in to this silly Q&A board.
1. I have completely stock p4 (p7500) tablet with 4.0.4 android. I am wondering
is it possible to install he's/her's rom directly without rooting or do i have to
flash some other recovery with Odin before i can install recommended TWRP
recovery.
2. As the tablet is completely stock i haven't rooted it, but as with all tablet tutorials
they always flash some recovery with Odin before rooting. With stock recovery
i get these errors.
"Unknown volume path for /sdcard" so i simply can't install recovery from original named zip file.
Mr. google doesn't really help with the subject
When trying to
<code>
adb push twrp.zip /sdcard/update.zip
</code>
It simply says that action is denied, probably because i haven't rooted the tablet.
Instructions on dev forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2777161
are quite short and doesn't say anything about coming from stock rom/recovery.
So is it possible to do this straight from stock recovery or do i have to pull some
fancypancies before i can use desired recovery / rom.
Waiting for reply.
Regards,
Pottumaa

First flash custom recovery(twrp) with odin. Then using your custom recovery flash your root.zip or whatever the rooting zip file is named. That will get your tab rooted. But you should be able to install your custom rom with just the custom recovery installed as the rom is already rooted.

So really only way is to flash custom recovery with Odin. After that rooting is kind of useless,
most rom installation scripts have root access or superuser integrated.
And no developer doesn't provide recovery that is flashable via odin so that's why i was asking
if it is even possible to do from stock recovery.
Any experience of using heimdall with p4?

Here's one: http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3158
After flashing, flash TWRP 2.7.1.0 and reboot to recovery again. Then you can start flashing custom ROMs.

So as everyone seem to ignore completely question about can you flash custom recovery from android stock recovery
and goes yapping about Odin i assume it cannot be done. It's just extra hassle and no i ain't fan of Odin, means that
i have to use windows intended programs on linux. F**k my life!

No, you CANNOT flash zips with stock recovery. Happy?
And you didn't said that you had Linux instead of windows which is why you were told to use Odin.

Finally straight answer. Yes, very happy.
Just for the record they can be flashed through stock recovery. Little harder than expected, but possible.
When mounted you can get to root folder and simply rename your zip file to update.zip and place it
in to /sdcard/ directory. In my case internal storage of the phone was found at /mnt/sdcard/.
Should also work if update.zip is placed in to /cache/ directory of the phone.

I didn't ask recovery that could be flashed via odin, but i did ask if anyone had experience of
using heimdall. Perhaps that qualifies as odin in some universe.

Yeah, i did miss comma there, at the "and no, developer..." but still can't see where i asked link for recoveries. Still repeating question
if it can be done from stock recovery.
We could argue about semantics all day here, there just ain't any point in it. Got my answer.
Hi guys, I really hope u can help me, cause i admit i did my share of research and got no solution
My N8010 was using GNABO 6.5 and Boeffla Kernel. While using it the other morning, the tablet suddenly rebooted and got stuck on the Galaxy Note screen. It stays on it a few seconds then reboot to the same screen in a loop.
I can access the recovery menu (CWM 6.0.3.6 ) but my options there are pretty limited, cant wipe and cant install zip files. At the botton of the recovery i have the following logs:
Warning: no file_contexts
E: Can´t open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can´t open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can´t open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can´t open /cache/recovery/last_log
I read somewhere that the problem should be solved if i could install a new recovery through Fastboot. Problem is fastboot cant find my device when on bootloader (but i can find it through ADB).
Using ADB sideload to install new recovery or new ROM gave me error on CWM.
Please, save my Tabye.

Samsung devices don't support fastboot instead they have something called download mode, which you can entered powering off the device and then pressing Volume Down button + Power Button simultaneously, after a couple seconds you'll see a warning screen at the warning screen press Volume Up and the device will be in download mode. Then you can use Odin to flash a new recovery, I would recommend checking out this guide on how to flash a recovery with Odin, and this thread for a recovery you could flash for your device model. Let me know if you still have questions.
