Hi there, i've been trying to install TWRP recovery but keep running into an issue where it says "install unsuccessful, or you are already using TWRP" however I'm not running twrp I'm using whatever recovery cm11 came with. I have selected the right phone model jfltexx and tried a few versions of twrp but still not joy.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Apologies if this has already been posted somewhere else and if its in the wrong section.
Thanks in advance.
How are you trying to install it
Put the phone in download mode and install twrp tar file with odin, look at YouTube tutorials before hand so you know the procedure, it's easy

The twrp app is **it, and it's not written by the same team that write twrp recovery, use odin or mobile odin

Terminal emulator, works everytime. Tutorial on TWRP page for your variant and there's a Q&A section on XDA btw.
@trooperjohn use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.bvgemert.flasher it can't get any easier than this! Just download the recovery.img and flash using the app
Me Gusta!
The TWRP Manager app wasn't working correctly for the last few versions so I stopped using it and relied on Odin. I therefore would use Odin to switch recoveries.
This isn't terribly relevant to the OP's request, but after switching to TWRP, you won't need a third-party app or Odin when the time comes to update the recovery. TWRP 2.8.4.0 and later support flashing recovery images within the recovery itself, without needing an app or Odin.

Since i upgraded to MG1 firmware and installed Goldeneye rom, i've been having issues with TWRP. At first, the recovery would hang when i would use the extended power menu to boot into recovery and it would work when i ust used Vol Up + Home + Power, but for the past 2 days, its been hanging at TeamWin blue screen all the time and i cannot boot into recovery anymore.
Would you guys know what i can do to fix this?
What version of TWRP are you using? 2.5.0.3 and 2.6 hung for me.
2.5.0.2 works flawlessly every time in my case.

It is in fact 2.6
So i guess i'll downgrade, is there any specific way to downgrade? Would you know how?
There is a flashable 2.5.0.2 around here somewhere. Find that and just flash in recovery. I believe you have to loki it as well.
Just keep trying to boot 2.6 it probably will eventually load.

Do you guys honestly think your posts have enough information to be able to help? We need more information, For example what guide was you following as there are multiple. What recoveries have you tried were they thought the right variant? etc. etc. etc.

Make sure you grab the right twrp file for your device. make sure you have your loki file in the ADB tools folder.
Use this Guide and it should work like a charm
i recommend changing the name of your TWRP '.img' to 'recovery.img' so its easy to type in the command window

Hi,
is there a recovery image for the Galaxy S4 Value Edition - GT-I9515? ClockworkMod, Philz or any other that is working?
Or if somebody knows if I can install the recovery image for the Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 on my Value Edition GT-I9515?
Please, let me know if there is such a recovery.
Thanks in advance!
God bless you.

Hello KidMarley,
if I do remember correctly, I downloaded the recovery from the webpage and then just flashed it directly from storage. I did not let the app download it for me. If that is what you are asking. And as nowadays there lots of new apps, can I suggest you use Rashr? I suppose that Rashr is the best for flashing...
Please provide me the link for the flash img

How did you install cwm? I rooted mine via odin with the cf method and ive confirmed root with several root checker apps. I cant seem to get cwm or twrp though and its extremely frustrating. Every time i try it just reboots to stock recovery.

How do I do that? When I boot to recovery it just boots to the stock recovery. I read somewhere else that I should rename a folder. I haven't done that so should I do that? If so, what folder? I'm sort of a noob at this. Would u mind explaining with a little more detail for me please? I would be eternally greatful.

I myself am new to Samsung devices, coming from Moto and 1+1..but with those devices..once the recovery is flashed, then one will reboot directly into recovery..anotherwords..flash the recovery file, then reboot the device to recovery..then from that, once into the custom recovery, one would boot normally..
The reason I'm un-sure in my explaination with the Samsung way..is NO custom recovery NORE Root is available for my new device of just a few days ago..and using Odin, I have only practiced, prepairing for when, hopefully the Dev's I'm in personal contact with, will come up with the Recovery and Root I need..
BUT..I can assure you, when flashing with adb, the recovery file, if one doesnt reboot immediately into recovery after flashing..to make recovery stick..otherwise the flash wouldnt take, and the stock recovery would remain..SOMEONE here with Odin experiance, PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong..
SORRY, thread, for getting so far off context..

Nevermind. I got philz to flash properly. And id like to note that none of the files i used to root the phone or install philz recovery were for the 530az. Everything was for the 530h varient, but worked perfectly on my 530az. I dont know if that helps anyone here or not but i figured id throw that out there.

Dear guys,
I had updated my kitkat 4.4.2 to lollipop 5.0 but I faced to major problems which are:
1. My screen shoot (Screen write) function works for maybe 3 or 4 times only and then nothing happens when I get out my pen and press it, so I have to restart the device to make it work for more 3 or 4 times!!!
2. I cannot find a good way to root after upgard it to lollipop. :crying: :crying:

1) Hmm... haven't seen that problem before. Try installing some apps from the play store that allow you to screetshot.
2) How did you previously root? I rooted my LG-D415 Android Version 5.0.2 using Kingroot.

Make sure you have done a clean installation of the ROM. By clean installation I mean make a full wipe, from TWRP (a custom recovery), go to Advanced Wipe and select everything except your external SD, in case you have one installed. Then flash the latest Lollipop ROM via Odin. The latest stable LP ROM I found to be OF3, so get that from sammobile.com.
And root can't be more easy. When you are done flashing the stock ROM via Odin just place this zip on your phone, https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip, reboot to recovery, which will be TWRP (and after flashing the stock ROM you will have to reflash TWRP, cause flashing stock ROM always installs the stock recovery), and just install the zip from there, done.
