Hello, I have been messing around with clockwork mod recently but I'm having some troubles I'll list them below. if anyone could help me that would be great!

Question 1. Not sure what file to use. I am using a galaxy s4 GGt-i9505 and when I try to install CWM from the app it says jfte and if i click phone not listed it says gt19505 not supported. I'm not sure if this is the correct file to use because I looked on the clockwork mod website and seen the manual install files and found the gt-i9505 files on there. So basically my question is for the galaxy s4 do I flash the jfte CWM file or the gt-i9505 file? If I Google search jfte it says it just another name for the galaxy s4 so I'm not sure.

Question 2.I have had an issue with system ui crashing when trying to install the jfte file through the app rather than through Odin and once it says installed and reboot phone i still don't have Clockwork recovery it still is the original recovery that came with the phone. How do I fix this?

Question 3. Every time I do a backup to my external SD card it puts the date of the backup as somewhere in the 1970s and puts the time to 11pm and then when I try to restore to the backup it says MD5 mismatch and tells me the location where it sent the recovery.log and I can't get any of my backups to restore without MD5 miss match Every time. Does anyone know a solution.

I Am rooted and I am running the latest version of lolipop. Is lolipop compatible with CWM?

Thanks for the help! Shaun.

Ok here are some answers. Hope they help.

Question 1: Try this link. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] I've always had problems trying to do it through the app.

Question 2: Do you have a custom ROM? If so, is it the right ROM and GAPPS for your phone?

Question 3: Maybe try this link. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] . If that doesn't help I Googled "MD5 mismatch backup to external SD Android". Maybe try putting in your phone model.

If CWM is compatible with Lollipop or not, that usually depends on the phone model. I unfortunately didn't find anything about it for your phone.
