since you seem to have gotten that far, you must be unlocked, rooted and have cwm and some alternate CM 10.0 ROM installed succesfully, right?

not have all the info you need about TWRP? All you are doing is replacing CMW with TWRP. I think you can do this even without a USB cable by downloading the img file to your phone's sd card via goo manager and issuing this command in the terminal app-refer to post #142 in this thread

the steps are as follows

Flash it through terminal. It's in the Goomanager folder. Rename it as recovery.img.

Open terminal, type:
su, enter,

change directory to goo manager by typing-assuming you downloaded it to sdcard.

cd /sdcard/goomanager

flash_image recovery recovery.img, enter.

Should show a list with no errors.

goomanager is a separate app for downloading roms onto your phone. it;s an app that can be found on Google Playstore

you said you have 4.1 installed-what is that? is that Jellybean? or are you still on Gingerbread 2.34?

if Google Playstore doesn;t load, try clearing the data for that app.

It's JB.
i had cm7, gingerbread before JB was installed.
and
i clicked 'storage' in settings,
PB31MG.zip is in SD card.

Are apps. on this device from Gapps?

what exact ROM is on the device? did you flash it yourself or did you buy it flashed by someone else?

do you have the apps Superuser and Terminal Emulator on the device? If so, I think you can just extract the recovery.img file and put it on the sdcard, then run the set of commands listed above inside Terminal Emulator.

GAPPS refers to Google Apps-the built in stuff coming from Google like Google Playstore, Email, Messaging. But on the Incredible, since it;s limited in the amount of disk space for the OS to about 260 mb, we have to use a version created by the maker of the ROM to fit in this tiny space. When you flash a ROM onto the incredible, it;s a 2 or 3 step process. In recoveryy(either CWM or TWRP)You flash the ROM, it;s associated GAPPS and then optionally, the Low space fix. You also wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache.
