Root Trying to install TWRP using GooManager.

[Codec]

I click Install OpenRecovery but it never actually installs it, it either just sits there doing nothing or I get some kind of MD5 error.

Don't bother with Goo right now. It's been messed up for quite some time. Download the Flashify application and the TWRP img from Techerrata then use Flashify to flash the recovery image.

Do you know how to flash your recovery using fastboot?

Link to Techerrata?

Link to Techerrata?

Techerrata Downloads - Downloading openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-hammerhead.img

As Rx said, you could also use fastboot commands to flash the recovery img.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

In this case, you would rename the file to recovery.img

Just like in the text you quote. Download the file linked, hook up your phone to a pc, reboot phone into bootloader, open a command prompt on the pc and type the above command - either change recovery.img to the twrp filename or rename the file.

The above assumes you have the right drivers installed on your pc.

Always best to know all this as fastboot commands can get you out of a lot of problems.

you can also try TWRP Manager.

If you're already rooted you can Install this app and flash it, just go to the TWRP site and download it there.
