How to install CWM - Ideos S7 Android Development

I have a S7 104 that is rooted and running 2.2.2. What is a step by step on how to install CWM? I have read other posts, but cannot get it to istall or work. Thanks for the help!

Hi, best way to install cwm is in a text console on windows or linux, and execute:
-fastboot flash recovery file-name
file-name is the name of the cwm img file, the latest version is 6.0.1 by ere
if you need more help ask.

How to remove Cyanogen Recovery?

Is there a way to remove the Cyanogen Recovery Console?
I'm quite new to Android myself but from my experience so far i'm sure you can 'replace' it with any recovery image - i went from cyanogens to the RA-hero-v1.2.3
If you're wanting to go back to stock recovery image you need to find the .img file for it then adb the file to your phone to replace the current recovery image. (just follow the process of installing the recovery image you currently have but using the new file)
Unfortunately i'm not sure where you can download the stock image.
Hope this helps!
i think in the ruu installer you can select what you want to overwrite/install. if so, just select recovery and there you go ;-)
the ruu installer can be found somewhere in development forum or on htc.com
There is one here frpm HTC Hero (Orange UK) also you will find nandroid in the shared folder. LINK
Hey Guys,
i want to remove recovery Build RA-hero-v1.6.2a but i have no idea how to ?
I thought with the RUU installer i could do it but it it doesn't work.
It tell me "no usb connexion".
Any help ?
Thanks !!!
To replace it with what?
with the original from HTC
So you're running the RRU file and its giving what error number?
It's error 170.
I think the recovery image block the process.
I'm running windows 7 64 bit, it may be help !
i think it can remove via fastboot .. simply erase it if you know how to use ADB
Run RUU under Windows XP SP3!
You should have looked at BTDAG's signature,...

[Q] Backup stock ROM Linx Commtiva

I have the variant Linx Commtiva n700.
I rooted the device and then I installed ROM Manager to flash ClockworkMod recovery.
When I try to flash it, selecting "Spice MI700, Commtiva Link N700 and more" I always get the error: "An error occurred when flashing your recovery"
I googled it but I have not found any solution yet.
Any suggestion? Is there any other way to backup my stock ROM??
Thanks
i have the same prob
no one help
I remember having the same problem. I think I have flashed alternative recovery from the menu item at the bottom. Then I have uploaded to the card CWM 2.5 for this device and flashed it with a tool flash_image. If it is not on the device yet you need to copy it to /system/bin using adb. If I remember correctly command to flash is flash_image recovery image_name.img issued in the terminal emulator.
Then in the ROM Manager you need to connect it with the right recovery you've flashed.
Later on I have found CWM 3 and flashed it from CWM 2.5.
Correct commands can be found somewhere on the net, if you need help drop a message.
Cheers
Is it possible that I find on the subject of integrated hardware and software necessary for the work of Rom, available roms

Hello navroza
please do read more threads about your phone here on XDA. there are always phone-relatet special ways to unlock bootloaders and to modify your phone in the correct way. to do that there is build special software that only works for your phone. You can damage your phone instantly if you use any other software of recovery- or bootimages that is not made for your phone.

Flashing TWRP help!!

I am trying to install TWRP but struggling
The phone is running ANdroid 6. I have unlocked the bootloader successfully.
I am using this link for TWRP, http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161
Originally I downloaded the files from the 1st post but upon reboot it was stuck on the white curtain screen.
Upon research I found out that the above guide is for Android 5. This link is for android 6.
Now I have downloaded this new file. My question is do i just flash this new file now?
Or are there any extra steps required? Such as a new boot.img file after flashing the new recovery file?
Flash it if you want?
I've no idea what you mean with "this new file", or "extra steps" (extra compared with what?) so I can't help with that. In general, you just should follow the steps in one of the guides to install TWRP. There're plenty, and most of them have in common that they already explain how you can install them and what you need. Also in general, you don't have to add "extra steps" or leave steps out.
Ok thanks.
I have now got the latest TWRP file, https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24499762636001943
The kernel im using is Latest AndroPlus Kernel V31.
So in bootloader i have fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to install TWRP
Then flashed the latest kernel using fastboot flash boot boot.img
I have rebooted the phone but now it keep booting into recovery, not the system.
Please can someone help?

How to use magisk to twrp from 2.3.5 gingerbread without a computer?

How to use magisk to twrp from 2.3.5 gingerbread without a computer?
@Didgeridoohan
Do you think its possible to flash twrp from a terminal emulator? Or what are my options?
If you really can't get a hold of a computer you might be lucky with an app like Franco Kernel Manager, Flashify, etc. Problem is that most apps likely won't support or be compatible with that ancient version of Android or whatever root you currently have installed. And, you're also risking bricking your device if you don't have access to a computer...
I really think your best bet is to somehow get access to a computer. Friend/school/work/something...
If you can't install stuff on that borrowed computer you could create a bootable USB with a Linux distro and run everything from there. Linux Mint is quite user friendly, they've got good documentation on how to get things running with a Live Boot USB, and it's not too hard to get adb & fastboot up and running.
Ill try and get a hold of a computer because nothing seems to work on 2.3.5
@Didgeridoohan
I had rooted using framaroot but after a factory reset it wont install supersu or superuser to my app drawer, can you give me a suggestion? Btw im using my xbox one to type this.
@chris1892006
don't waste your time with this: Magisk works only on Android 5.0 and above.

Is it so hard to read posts carefully?
I found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YAKGRblIuw
dd Install Method (Requires Root):
Download the latest image file (.img) from the download link above. Place it in the root of your /sdcard folder and rename it to twrp.img. Run the following commands via adb shell or a terminal emulator app:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9
What part of the command do i change for a yp-g70 venturi? Also can i extract my twrp 2.8.0.0.zip and get the .img out of it or can i flash the .zip?
This what i used to flash cwm/ entropys daily driver kernel
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840
su
dd if=/sdcard/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
Well i got cwm installed! Now i just need to flash twrp and then a rom

Notice, that for Lollipop and up to get it running smoothly, you need a device with minimum 2GB RAM and at least 2GHz dual core processor - what since Android 4.4+ must be a ARMv7 one.

Thanks i had 4.4.4 up and running but tried flashing 5.1.1 lollipop on cwm and it corrupted the bootloader. Now i cant get into recovery because twrp wouldnt flash over cwm, i tried to flash twrp 2.8.0.0 & it succeeded yet didnt work after a reboot, why? I read the op but i still cant figure out why it didnt work after a reboot? Still remained cwm.

How do i flash twrp over cwm?
Hey... Look at that, you had some progress. Nice.
I've never used CWM, so I wouldn't know.... Sorry.
@chris1892006
Have you backed up stock recovery IMG through e.g. Flashify app before installing a custom recovery by means of CWM ? Do remember that restoring a backup will essentially wipe any changes made after that backup.
If so then
1. you can restore or flash stock recovery IMG through Fastboot to get CWM out of your system.
2. you can install through TWRP any custom recovery IMG of your choice.

thanks only problem is they only make a .zip for twrp for my device... I don't know how to flash it.
That's a really old android version, I'm not sure if it's possible. If you don't have access to a PC, try to ask a friend if they could do it for you, just to be safe. Trying to modify stuff within android, especially on such an old version, with probably unsupported software could result in a bricked device.
Thanks but I finally got TWRP and Lollipop 5.1.1 installed it took an ADB Sideload from a PC to sideload the twrp.zip file for my device and now I'm up and running and very happy to say the very least. Sure I bricked it 3 times in the process but was always able to recover using ODIN and having the proper files on hand.
Now im having an issue with xda on the device where the xda app wont let me sign in and the browser will sign me in but go right back to the sign in page again, idk how to fix it?
I install a dalvik cache wiper with root required and it corrupted the recovery again. So I figured out the exact steps to get this device working perfectly again. Firstly the twrp folder on the external sd card has to be renamed TWRP because it has extra strange characters after the TWRP. Now we know how to restore our backup, we can start by ODIN back to stock, then Framaroot v1.4.1 root the device then download entropys daily driver kernel cwm, the flash it via terminal emulator, reboot, then you have to install meticulous carbon 4.4.4 to fix the partitions and update the cwm to adb sideload the twrp. So you can then flash Meticulus Carbon 5.1.1 and both updates and 5.1.1 pico gapps. Good to go. Meticulus made the kernel overclock to 1.7ghz and it runs pretty darn good honestly. I modded the build.prop vm dalvik heap limit to 384m from 128m to get some extra performance out of it.
