I was having so strange issues with my S4 after I originally rooted it so after messing with it for a while I decided to just start over from scratch. I used L720VPUAMDC_L720SPTAMDC_SPR and was able to get it loaded up without any problems and the phone runs fine.

Problem: I tried to re-root the phone again but I cant get cwm or twrp installed. I downloaded rom manager just to try to get cwm installed from there but when I looked under the recovery rom section I says that I have both CWM and TWRP installed already when I dont. I can boot into download mode and the stock recovery but I cant seem to get any other recovery to install.

Anyone know something I can do to get one of these recoveries installed?

Thanks

Here's odin 3.07 and twrp recovery. Just put your phone in Download mode, put the recovery in the pda section of Odin, and then boot to recovery and you should be good :good:

Wanna laugh... I forgot to uncheck "auto reboot" in odin all these times. I unchecked it and got cwm installed.. 1 problem down :) Now let me find a good rom ;)
