Hey everyone, as of right now, is there no way to get the CWM recovery on an S4 (AT&T) that has been updated to 4.3?
What would the process be, if possible of flashing back to a 4.2.2 rom.
I'm looking to install Cyanogenmod, but can't seem to do so, mainly because I can't get into CWM, and I have a feeling its because I'm on 4.3...
Thanks in advance.
I'm a newbie to this forum. I'm currently using samsung galaxy tab 10.1 sgh-t859 t-mobile 4.3.1 running cyanogenmod 10.2 diamondrom p4tmohttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2399999. I would like to update to kasperh_h latest 4.4 Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576610. When I try to update, I get incompatible Rom error., I suppose the Rom their is not compatible to my device version. Is their a work around. Thanks for the help in Advance
im guessinng incompatiable
ignore last post
Ok..so you have to Odin back to stock before installing this rom! Do not flash from cm! It will give errors and mess up.
Hopefully someone can help me. I am very new to flashing custom roms. My device is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8010). I have managed to flash it with cm-10.2-20140323-NIGHTLY-n8000 has Clockworkmod Recovery 6.0.4.6 complained that my device is a GT-N8000. The fact is that the factory rom reports the device has a GT-8010 so this has me confused. Also I seem to have no memory left on my device. So I am considering flashing cm-11 UNOFFICIAL but Clockworkmod 6.0.4.6 won't flash it and comes up with an error. From what I have read I need to have a recovery that supports Andriod KitKat 4.4. So hopefully someone can educate me on:-
Does the Clockwordmod Recovery set the device type? ie GT-N8010
Is there a Clockworkmod Recovery that supports CyanogenMod CM-11 UNOFFICIAL?
Is there a step by step guide that I can use that does not require odin or the like to install CyanogenMod CM-11 UNOFFICIAL?
Thanks In Advance
Hey everyone, this is my first thread on this huge community. Can someone suggest me a custom ROM that can be flashed using ODIN or Mobile ODIN or via CWM 4.0.x.x? I've tried twice to install the 6.0.x.x version, but in both cases I soft bricked my device
I am searching for a Stable ROM, possibly kit kat or higher (but an improved version of Jelly Bean would be OK).
I would really like a Lollypop Custom ROM, but, as I sad before, I failed twice. Thanks for your help!

Hello,
You should update your recovery to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
You cannot flash a kitkat or a lollipop ROM with a CWM 4.0.X.X recovery as it is very old.
Once you've installed the above mentioned latest Apolo kernel, you can go ahead and flash any other ROM normally as you would do with any other recovery.
Regards
Hello.
I'm currently using the PhilZ Touch recovery on my I9300, unfortunately I'm experiencing some random problems, so I would like to flash a new recovery. Can somebody recommend me a good, supported custom recovery for Galaxy S3? I use Android 5.1 ROMs if it changes anything.
Thank you.
TWRP (latest ver.)
I agree:thumbup:
TWRP from Google Store. And I can recommend you the Resurrection Rom latest build 5.5.4 with 5.1 gapps!
I stick since months with RR

I don't know if these threads are allowed (since ROM discussion isn't) but TWRP is love <3
CWM or TWRP. CWM is not supported anymore. TWRP is easy to use and in my opinion stable. I use it too. Don't want something other.
1 annotation: there's no developer atm, so we've to use the last official 2.8.6.1 or @Naveed Abbas' builds, fe from here.
But it's for sure the most recommendable recovery.
TWRP works very good!
