I try to go into CWM recovery, and it just jumps all over the place. I can't scroll down to wipe or anything. I want to Flash (install) TWRP. But it's going nut's. Can I flash a zip without going into recovery mode? If so, how do I do it?
Try this, might be a solution, might not, cant hurt to read the post though!!

cwm is doing weird things to my warp too..definitely try what lil suggested. it should do the trick. you could also try returning the phone to stock with zte warp tool, then flashing twrp over it.

Sounds like it's doing what the Warp I just retired started doing... the screen digitizer gets a bad spot which the system either treats as a constant press or a series of random rapid-fire taps. Or both, like mine. Either way, I think you need a new screen, brother. :/

But I don't think the screen affects cwm since cwm doesn't utilize it...? I hope not anyway

I did all that, but when I try to scroll down it jumps from one menu to the other then reboots?????
Or it goes into CWM then goes straight to "rebooting"

The four "buttons" at the bottom are still part of the screen unit, and CWM does use them. The jumping symptom you report along with the constant buzzing tell me the system is registering constant taps on that region of the digitizer.

Do any of the symptoms persist when the phone is in normal mode? I.e. rom up and running? If not you could flash twrp with my themer script...or any rom for that matter...

How do I do that?

First download themer.sh.pdf to the root of your sdcard and remove the ".pdf" using a file explorer like root explorer or es file browser.
Then download Script Manager
Create a folder on the root of your sdcard named "themes" and place your .zip there.
Load Script Manager and navigate to themer.sh, select it and run as root by clicking the little skull and cross bones at the top and then press run.
Select your .zip by pressing the appropriate number and pressing enter on the osk.
It will reboot your phone and install the zip....done!!

Should be working just fine. Are you downloading to the phone or a PC? If it's a PC you'll have to right click and save as.
