Z3C D5833 - Rooted, unlocked bootloader, running CM12. How to change recovery? topic

SOCIALIZE IT ⇨

Hi peeps,

I've been doing a lot of research on the net and simply can't figure out a straight answer to this issue, please excuse my ignorance.

I'm running the setup mentioned in the thread title. I have run into some issues with the CM12 recovery. It doesn't offer nandroid backups and every .zip file I try to flash is rejected with an error message of "wrong signature" or "wrong footer", which strikes me as odd, as this is not an isolated case for one .zip archive which could have been corrupted, but every single one I try.

So in order to get nandroid backups from recovery and/or the ability to install .zip archives I'd like to use TWRP or CWM. Problematically I can only find either whole roms with twrp/cwm, or packages that seem to include a kernel, which I am not sure I need? Also, many of the projects are focused on rooting the Z3C, but mine is already rooted and unlocked. The twrp/cwm dual-recovery project for example labels all their files "lockedz3c" on their server, which makes me wonder whether I'd want to try to flash that onto my phone.

Any advice as to how I could simply switch from the CM12 default recovery to CWM/TWRP via fastboot for example?

Thanks!!
