Hmmm...really? I had the full version for the longest even before my evo3D days and I always thought you had to pay for the touch version. As matter of fact, I tried to grab the touch version only a few days ago through the paid app but they still asked me to donate for the touch version. I must been missing something.

Need some help. I've been running the AOKP ROM and prior to flashing the ROM is made a back up of the original with CWM. I am having to many issues with the ROM and want to go back to the original ROM. When I went to restore the ROM, I'm getting a error in restore. Is there a special process to restore the original ROM?

There isn't a special process to restore a nand. Is it failing when you select the backup you're trying to restore? I've had that happen to me before and I had to just discard that backup. There isn't a way to fix it as far as I understand. It's just a bad backup. Unless someone else with more knowledge can chime in.

Sorry for the noob question, I just did a quick sesrch and couldn't find an answer.. How do you flash these recoveries? Do I need to use Odin or can I flash them from stock recovery?

Ok sorry, havent used ROM manager in a long time...now you have to pay to flash the touch recovery, full version just removes ads

Which sucks because before the full version used to let you flash touch recovery and ads=gone :confused:
Silly devs

Whats the difference between TWRP and CWM? CWM is the only recovery I have ever used.

It is easier to just flash twrp and try it. It is easy to go back and forth. The only catch is that backups aren't compatible between them.

It is more of a preference from what I can tell. Many people seem to like twrp (including myself) though.

Really? I may have to try it, how comparable is TWRP with The Peoples Rom?
I wasn't trying to be rude. Twrp is just a custom recovery, not a rom. You can switch between cwm and twrp very easily (a simple flash thanks to naddict) without effecting your rom at all.

Here's a link to the twrp website. It has screen shots and features listed.

Don't worry I didn't take it as you being rude
I am gonna try it though and if I like it I might keep it but if I don't I'll go back to CWM as long as its flash able hey what the hell ....right?
Gotta excuse my language, my back hurts like crazy and I've had three cans of liquid pain killer and four shots of it too :)
