You can flash any recovery you need just flash zip via recovery it's as simple as that bud
You can try TWRP but best in my opinion is philz cwm ?

Uninstall Philz Touch 5

Hi. How do I removed / uninstall Philz Touch 5 because I want to try TWRP 2.6.3.0. I had installed Goo Manager and installed TWRP but rebooting to Recovery, it will reboot to Philz TOuch's recovery.
Thank you.
flash this twrp 2.5.0.3 zip in recovery and then reboot recovery. see if it sticks. if it does, stay on that version. i've heard it works better than the newer releases. cheers
Just flash TWRP in your recovery

I did flash the 2.6.3.0 using Goo Manager but when in rebooted in REcovery it was still the Philz Touch that opened.
Thank you.

You can't use that to do it. You have to take that zip file that beerdroid posted and save it to your sd card. Save it in the root so it's easy to find. You have to boot into Philz and flash that zip.
I don't ever recommend the Goo Manager. There has been so many people that has had problems with it, especially after flashing a new ROM. It's not because it's a bad program, it's because sometimes when you flash a new ROM the prop changes so it tricks Goo Manager.

I'm experiencing the same thing. TWRP wasn't able to load the Cyanogenmod SNAPSHOT, but Philz did and I don't have WiFi just like when I loaded the unstable version so I'm trying to delete Philz and it won't go away. Why did my TWRP disappear? arghhh...... I wish I had a Nexus 5.

Can't restore from CWM Recovery

I have rooted and installed CWM Recovery on my i9505 with 4.3 official firmware but I can't seem to recover my backups from CWM. It seems to complete the recovery task but at the end, it shows like i've only flashed a new rom and the root and CWM gone. Any solutions?
Thanx.
Why don't you try Philz recovery.. it always work for me

Help change stock recovery / revert to stock recovery (CWM based recovery) [SOLVED]

Hello friends,
I have rooted Galaxy i9505 international. Installed CWM based recovery 6.0.3.2(0611), and flashed last stable CM (cm-10.2.1-jfltexx).
Boot time have become longer (way longer) since installing CWM based recovery.
Couldn't find a decent post about how to:
1) Revert back to stock recovery.
or
2) Change the CWM based recovery to official CWM.
Anyone know how to do either?
Or maybe had the same problem with CWM based recovery?

Did you consider trying a different recovery (PhilZ) or a different ROM?
Look for a recovery you want to try if its a zip file flash it with CWM and if its odin file flash it with odin.

The latest CM snapshot booted a bit faster.
Actually after all those attempts I can't really remember how long did it take to boot before installing CWM..
But it does seems slower.

I prefer to flash the original CWM.
How can I flash it on top of the CWM based recovery?
Files there are img files.
Look in xda development section you will find it zip format or i think you can download a zip file of another recovery and the replace the recovery within the zip file with the one you want to flash.
If you want to flash it in .img format you can do that with heimdall but you will need the pit file of 19505 too.

Could not find any ZIP of the official Clockworkmod Recovery.
Is there any other way to install it?
Or better yet, a way to revert to stock recovery (from there I can install as in the beginning)?
Btw, is it ok to just replace recovery? Or should I "uninstall" my old recovery before installing the new one?

Hi,
You will get stock recovery if you flash a stock firmware.
There are also some stock recoveries listed HERE
