Did that yesterday. I just tried it with a sense ROM and it works now. Must be an issue with CM based ROMs and my phone?

A ROM would have nothing to do with the scripts interaction with the recovery. Can't imagine how...

I agree. All it does is run a script, which shouldn't be impacted at all by any certain ROM.

I've always maintained that superwipe working means that recovery wasn't working right in the first place.

It came out years ago.

From another thread, this September -

Superwipe == not really what you want to do.

In TWRP, select wipe -> advanced -> check cache, dalvik, system, AND data then swipe for a "clean" slate for installing. These instructions are for recent builds of TWRP...
This is the first I've heard of it not being ideal to use Superwipe. Why is that?

Thanks.
i opened the script to get a definitive answer. this is my preliminary report.

Code:
run_program("/tmp/tune2fs.ext4", "-c", "1", "-m", "0", "-o", "journal_data_writeback", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p35");
this is the problem with the superwipe script. this is what you find when googling journal_data_writeback.

Code:
I set the mode to journal_data_writeback. This basically means that data may be written to the disk before the journal. The data consistency guarantees are the same as the ext3 file system. The downside is that if your system crashes before the journal gets written then you may loose new data -- the old data may magically reappear.
basically, you get ghost data returning anywhere and anytime it wants to.

just manually wipe.
Do as you think best, but I've never found superwipe to be worth it.

You need to unlock your bootloader again, then flash a new recovery. CWM is not the preferred recovery on this device.

Best thing to do is just flash a custom HBOOT from rumrunner.us. That'll allow you to fastboot flash recovery without having to Dev unlock again.

Also, you'll want to fix your misc partition, because if you have CWM, it's hosed.

Is anybody else having difficulty installing this with GooManager? I get to the download page, it counts down and then the download doesn't start. Whats the deal?

Can you provide me a link? And then what if I want to go back to 4.3 I must flash to other recovery?
Here's a link to a bootloader flashable version. It's already named properly, so no need to rename it.

There is also a link in my CM 11 Q&A in my sig. It's in the OP. It has to be pushed via fastboot.

You can flash non-KK ROM's with it, too.
