Cannot install custom recovery
Hey,
I have already rooted my phone and now when I try to change my stock recovery by the methods mentioned for both jellybean and kitkat to cwm recovery, it still shows a dead android with a caution symbol above it.
I had updated my phone to 4.4.2 FOTA so as given I tried installing CTR using mobile uncle tools but it stills shows the same symbol
Please give a solution since as you know the battery of this phone is very sad!
Also BTW I had rooted my phone using king root(usb debugging method), so is that why the given recovery methods aren't working?
Please help me in this problem!
Thank you in advance
