Hello,
I need a method to install a zip file on my Rom without using the built in Aroma installer, because I got an error.
I know that the patch should work with the standard cwm installer.
By installing the Freexperia CWM but it also wants to start the aroma installer
trying this way stops in a menu with a green android boy with an "!" triangle.
my Specs
SXS with Doomkernel and the xperia sspeed rom
up
deleted
why deleted?
I already managed it.

I have a rooted MDK Verizon S4 with SuperSU installed. I had been trying to use Rom Manager to install clockworkmod recovery and every time, it comes back with the message that it has been successfully installed. When I try to boot into recovery, it wouldn't work. I finally installed GooManager and went ahead and installed TWRP. Now I am able to boot into TWRP with no issues, but when I try to overwrite and install clockworkmod recovery from within Rom Manager, it again comes back with the message that it has been successfully installed, but it still boots into TWRP.
I understand that I can use TWRP to switch over to a different rom, but I am just befuddled as to why I am not able to install clockworkmod. Can you guys please help me understand what I am doing wrong?

You can either ODIN the CWM edition you want (for example Philz Touch Recovery - http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/jfltevzw) - get the md5 file of course for ODIN. You can also try to flash the zip file of Philz Touch Recovery from your SDCard (same site - http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/jfltevzw) through TWRP. Reboot into recovery and see what happens.

Thanks. When I was trying to install CWM within Rom Manger, I ended up paying for the touch upgrade, hence my desire to try and install CWM form within Rom Manager... It's just a bit frustrating that I can't figure out what's going on..
i searched forum but i am unable to find way to install recovery to install Cm12.1 from official link official site have recovery *.img and ROM zip but i find no solution on how to install recovery
In my other phone(htc,xiaomi) i can just reboot to bootloader and fastboot flash recovery but this method is not working on samsung phone
kindly update me or show xda link showing how to install CM12.1 recovery on my SII 9100 T model phone i already downloaded ROM and Recoveyr.img from
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9100
Does my i9100 T model support 12.1 ?

Forget about the recovery.img. I don't know why it is there. On the i9100(and i9100T), there is no seperate recovery partition. It is bundled with the kernel. So if you have a custom recovery that is capable of flashing a lollipop rom, just use that. Once you have flashed CM12.1, the CM recovery(kernel) will overwrite the recovery(kernel) you had anyway. Which is not a good thing(not that you have a choice). Currently the CM recovery is not very functional compared to CWM or TWRP

I'm assuming you have stock unrooted firmware? The easiest way is to install philz kernel from stock(3e) recovery, then reboot to recovery and flash a newer recovery that is capable of flashing the newer versions of android. If you just want to install CM12.1 straight away just back up your efs then:
1. Download the DVLSH kernel .zip from HERE
2. Download the philz 6.48.4 from HERE
3. Reboot into stock recovery, flash the DVLSH kernel(if your firmware build is DVL**, you could probably reboot into system no problem)
4. Reboot to recovery(not system), flash the philz 6.48.4
5. Reboot to recovery(not system), follow the steps for installing in the CM12.1 thread after backing up etc
Keep the DVLSH kernel. Once you install CM, you will have CM recovery, which only allows you to flash signed .zips(which this one is)
EDIT - The philz 6.48.4 is also signed and is probably the more useful one to keep, being compatible with the newer roms

Kiran, i'm in the same stage as you for installing cm 12.1.1 on my SGS2 (GT-I9100) Stock 4.1.2 Rom (Non rooted). Can you please share the steps (step by step) you took to took to install the same . Also how good or Bad is it to be used as a daily regular rom compared to the Samsung Stock rom for the SGS2 (GT-I9100)?

please look at above steps
Recently rooted OF1 build. Now want to install custom recovery. Tried using Goo Manager Install OpenRecoveryScript but it did not identify one that was "compatible." What is the preferred recovery and link to guide installation?
Hello. I want to install TWRP because it will provide me possibility to install some .zip modifications on my Xperia V (running CM12). But I don't know whether after installing TWRP I will have to install ROM again, or previous ROM will be still working?
Greetings,
Feliks
Changing the recovery won't affect your rom.
