Okay, so I am coming from an HTC phone where you would flash this (*.img) in Hboot. As this is my first Samsung phone, how do I flash this recovery?
Thanks, in advance.

Same issue here. How do we go about flashing this onto the phone? - Im assuming this is done through ODIN (Using the "Flash" Boot Option) - or am I wrong? Also, the new Recovery is not showing up in CWM APP.

the original one is a port, this is the OFFICIAL recovery released by koush. koush is the one who developed clockwork mod recovery and rom manager.

You don't use mobile Odin for the one click. You just click the one click exe from your PC. Hey I think you should read up some more before going forward just to be safe.
Oh yea don't forget to put your phone in download mode

Thanks for the response however i am really limited because i cant connect my phone to my pc and im pretty sure the reason is because im running aokp. I posted a thread on q&a earlier today asking for help to connect it to the pc. If i cant use the exe thru mobile odin is there any way i restore my phone back to el29 without connecting it to pc?

If you made a backup of el29 before you flashed, then yes....just download the el26 kernel w cwm and restore your backup. If you did not make a backup, you can try to download calks el29 rom and flash through the el26 cwm recovery. Your PC might recognize your phone and allow you to do a one click flash then.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

Thanks where can i download the cwm el26 recovery?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

Or you can download the app zarchiver and open up the one click file with it so you can flash the tar file inside it in mobile odin. Real easy to do.

You can use the one click on mobile Odin look for the exe file on your EXTERNAL SD CARD
I use it every time I want to go back to rooted stock el29:beer:

This.
In sfhub's EL29 one click thread, there are instructions under "android". You have to extract the tar first, then flash in mobile Odin.

Could be just some type of glitch that happened during your download and corrupted the zip.

nope

are you checking md5 for the entire .zip package or are you opening up the zip. Do not open them. You flash .zip's in recovery. After you download move to your phone. Boot to recovery and flash it

Odin & Firmware questions...

It's been a while since I had to use odin, so can someone please refresh my memory. I have Odin and firmware downloaded. I have both of them on my desktop. I understand how to open Odin, but how do i get my firmware to show up when I hit PDA in Odin? I know you're supposed to somehow extract it into a folder or something, but I can't for the life of me figure this out. Can someone please give me a detailed description of how this works? I've searched and searched but it's always gone over so quickly and nobody explains this step. I'm sure it's simple, but I'm dying over here. Lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Where did you place the firmware file? I put it on my main screen. So I just go to either my computer or desktop and scroll until I see the file.
When you hit PDA, it's suppose to show all your folders. You're just suppose to find where you placed your download.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I put it on my desktop, but when I hit PDA it doesn't show up under desktop. After the firmware download was completed, I went to my downloads folder and drag & dropped it on my desktop. I haven't opened it or done anything with it.

No... As you can tell, I'm not that computer savvy. What's the best way of doing that? If you could explain the process of extracting and finding the file after I hit the PDA, that's pretty much all I need. I know I'm probably a pain in the butt. I just need a friendly person to explain it to me. Thank you

Just extract it like a normal archive and the extracted file will end with .tar.md5 extension.. After that you can use it with Odin and it will show up when searching for it

What are you trying to do? Root your phone? Return to stock? What version of android are you on, 4.1.1 or 4.1.2?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

I'm wanting to update my firmware and bootloader. I'm currently on an older CM10.1 nightly. In order to install any CM10 or AOKP I have to update my firmware to get the latest MD5 bootloader. I have the T-mobile SGH-T999.

Theres a recovery flashable zip in dev section designed for exactly that. Will flash everything but /system.
Use in recovery though, not Odin.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

Stop what you're doing. Flash this and you're good. Do it through recovery. No need to Odin.
