Been looking to try a new recovery, thanks.

Edit: Quick question, is it okay to flash this using recovery tools? I would assume so, but the instructions make no mention of it. Am I just better off flashing it in TWRP or CWM recovery?

I only wish I would have tried this this sooner...my volume keys would have appreciated it.

You only flash the zip in recovery using either TWRP or CWM. Flash it, then reboot recovery.

If you are using the .tar.md5 file, flash that in odin and it'll overwrite the recovery image.

Please help, just flashed it using Flashify and the phone only boots in Odin mode. Is there a way to phuse a recovery file and install it?

Edit: didn't even have to use Odin, I just booted into safe mode and it fixed it.

I had that problem and I used rom manager to flash cwm multiple times, then when I flashed this it went away.

I'm on the latest ktoons

Dude, this Recovery is sooo friggin' killer!! Albeit a tad overwhelming with all the bells & whistles & whatnot, still so rad!!
I've always dug CWM over TWRP, even though most were ragin' about how cool TWRP is!?!? I've used both of 'em here & there, but I've just always had dependable results with CWM.
Thanks maang, you sir(s) deserve a cookie!!

I am having an issue flashing pacman nightly. No matter what version I try and flash, latest or one from 4 months ago that I know is a good download, I get a failed to install.

I have tried a dirty flash and a "new rom" wipe. Both return the same issue.

All you have to do is flash it like you would a rom. Unless I am misunderstanding the instructions.

Ask cooker to update his update-binary or do it your self by replacing the one in the ROM you install

That is all you need to do.

It's a known issue, many people are going to have the problem.

Pull the update-binary from another rom, or anything that does flash with the recovery, and replace the one in the rom of your choice with that one.

This has nothing to do with the recovery itself, and Phil can't do anything about it on his end. Rom builders have to update the script for it to work on this CWM base.

I know mastamoon has an unofficial cwm 6.0.4.5 recovery for use, I'm sure his kit kat rom likely has a working update-binary, try to flash that rom with this recovery. If it works, there's your answer.
