You don't actually have CWM installed yet. The bottom choices are to manually override the recovery detection. Click on the option underneath the Install/Update recovery option and choose the correct device. That should get you up and running.

Ok thanks dude:thumbup:

No problem! You should probably check out your device's sub forum for any specific recoveries or information related to rooting and custom recoveries.

Please, please, do not use ROM manager. It will not work with your device. (Or any other device not specifically in the list)

Try Rom Manager from Play Store.
You can boot in touch recovery by turning off your phone, then press and hold power button + home button + volume up
Wait until the recovery shows up and release your fingers.
Edit: Or just reflash cwm recovery using cwm apps if you want to use cwm apps for backup/restore

As I suggested earlier, use ROM Manager.
ROM manager is not the way I would suggest as it doesn't support many phones and is known to have caused a few bricks! Best bet Google! Find your recovery flash it thru the one u have if possible, or do it thru bootload USB

This.
Don't use ROM manager to flash anything.
@OP just flash cf-root, that installs recovery when you flash it

There's a chance of it going wrong and bricking your phone, a lot of people will tell you not to use ROM manager to flash anything, downloading stuff with it is fine, but flash through cwm.
Better to be safe than sorry.

Maybe you forgot a step. Check if you're doing everything that says in the post.
If you can't, you can install another ROM like Simplicity or S3 ROM.
By the way, what's your language?

what version of recovery, meaning there should be a version # 6.0.?.?
or are you getting a status 7? which means your recovery needs to be updated
you have rooted right?
just basic information im asking, but folks need to know
I'm sorry I always forget something when I'm asking a question on here. But yes I am rooted and it says my CWM-RECOVERY version is 5.5.0.4 if I need to update which version would I want or would you suggest going with TWRP? Answer to your other question it is saying (STATUS 7)

6.0.4.3 is the most recent version and you may have to look back a page or so, but in the General forum there is a thread titled CWM 6.0.4.3 touch recovery and there is a flashable file.
TWRP is fine too, but it depends on what else you may flash in the future. the 4.4 roms dont work with TWRP.
there is a TWRP thread also though in Original Development. some had been having problems with latest version, so you may want to go to the last page and read a bit.
but updating your recovery will solve your problem
have fun
id help out a little more, except i am at work and they may frown upon this if they catch me
