You need Odin installed on your PC, and this file I have attached. Turn your phone off, hold down both volume buttons and hook up the USB cable which is already connected to the machine running Odin. Open Odin, and select PDA, find the file you downloaded from this post and select it. Now click start in Odin & violla !
Ahh k will it wipe my data. The reason I asked is since i'm rooted with a stock ROM with clockwork recovery installed,.will I still get ota's.

No it won't wipe your data.
As far as OTAs go, it has to be stock everything.
seems to be stuck and setup connection, does it take a long time?

According to someone no you can't. You need stock recovery to get OTA.

how do i switch from twrp to tcwm?

can i flash the newest tcwm with extsdcard support over twrp2? or do i have to use odin to install it? if i did, would it overwrite twrp or do i have to delete it first? how do you delete the recovery? i like twrp but i want to try out tcmw to see if it fixes my extsdcard mounting issues.
You can do it from Rom manager.

thanks, i've known about being able to install cwm with rom manager, i just wanted to make sure it wouldnt mess anything up going from twrp to cwm.
Shouldn't. I switch back and forth a lot.

Can I flash cwm in twrp?

I just wanna be sure bcuz the epic cm blogspot says that we can use the flash able when upgrading cwm it doesn't state that I can't flash it from another recovery.

Ive done it. Dont remember wheather or not it was successful tho. If twrp gives an error, u could always put the clockwork img on ur sdcard and do dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilename.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 in terminal or adb
You can use Odin to flash cwm too.

Dont use rom manager

DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER ON THIS PHONE! You can brick the phone real easy that way. Should you ever need a cwm recovery to flash something find a kernel with it. Such as agats recovery/kernel. Recovery is tied into the kernel. Stop using rom manager though....seriously.
