If you have gone through as many phones in your sig as you claim to you should be able to figure out by process of elimination how to install it, not trying to be mean but people round here just need to think more, its a recovery you install it the same way you install any recovery like when you first rooted your phone. Check the stickies prolly something in there to answer your question too.
I usually did rom manager. Too lazy for all the extraness. Thanks anyway.

Not every knows the other methods. But seems people in this community can't be nice enough to just explain a simple thing. With rom manager you don't have to do it. It does it for you. Just tossing up my 2 cents.
Good looking out oon this. Flashed it and worked like a charm.

Before you guys keep on flaming, rename to recovery.img, put it on the root of your sdcard, open terminal, and type:
Su
Flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
I swear to god this knowledge should be a prerequisite before being allowed to post in the dev forums..

You don't get it do you?
This is FLASHABLE!
Without going into terminal, you flash it like a rom
Exactly. I didn't have to go through all the renaming nonsense for this. Just drop it on the root of your SD, boot into recovery and then flash. Simple.

He didn't try looking inside the zip. IF there's a meta folder it's flashable via recovery
LOL it's assumed when a recovery image is posted it is in the .img form, coz for a person first flashing stuff on their phone, they have to either flash a custom recovery thru Rom Manager, or the flash_image binary in terminal. It's impossible to flash a .zip without a custom recovery in the first place.
Just sayin...
Is there an overview of the changes in this version compared to the last?
I suggest people who want to know what the changes are learn to read github...

it's also probably assumed that any noob isn't going to be attempting an update of something they have no idea what it even is, or how to do so... for those that have a clue, they would know that all they need to do is extract the .img and place it on root of sdcard or whatever... just sayin...
Thanx for the Recovery & The laughs!!
Excellent work.

What do you mean by "for those of you who missed wiping from recovery"? I wipe from recovery just fine on the latest Clockwork Recovery.
Why would you not take the short amount of time to list the specific changes in the OP for everyone?
Why would you not take the time to list simple step by step instructions for those who need them in the OP? (At least you added that its a flashable zip...prior to that there was no information whatsoever)

all that has changed from koush's github is the ext support. So you want us to copy everything from his github and put it here with all the dates when and what he changed?
lol i gotta say.... whats new in this recovery? i looked at github and it dont seem too have much of a difference usage wise.... for basic users like me it isnt a "must update" right?
and, ROFL at all the people who dint get "flashable" xD
Hi guys,
I have CWM 5.5 on my S3 i747, and I just wonder where can I find the latest version of CWM for i747, and also how do I upgrade it using ODIN ?
As I understand, it should be a file named "recovery.img", and to flash it on my S3, I have to tar it and flash the tar file using ODIN. Is that right?
Thanks!
Download rom manager and get from there, I personally couldn't stand the latest cwm recovery its slow as hell took way too long to make a backup
Galaxy SIII via XDA premium
Download your version of cwm there
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Place it at the root of your sdcard and rename it recovery.IMG
Download terminal emulator from the play store. Run the terminal
type: su (press enter)
Then type: dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (press enter)
Type everything right. If you get the last number wrong, you get a brick.
I did this on my phone to install cwm touch without any issues

U can always use rom manager to get latest cwm as everyone mentioned but that will be regular cwm.
If u want touch cwm than u got three options
1) use terminal emulator as mentioned in the earlier post
2) buy it from play store
3) flash through Odin.

They most likely will and even if they don't you could always flash a previous version of cwm( the one you made the backup with). No need for angry faces lol. You should search and get the lowdown of the consequences of everything you flash before you flash.

There's a new version of CWM for our phones, it's 6.0.2.3. I just flashed it and it seems that they removed the option to 'wipe battery stats' in cwm.
ClockworkMod Touch 6.0.1.4(this is the version)
I need to get for my Galaxy SIII AT&T. I like doing it manually.

hey ive really new to the world of android after moving from iphone and i need help. ive managed to root my phone have clockworkrecovery installed and working, but the problem comes when i try to install the liquidsmooth rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1911009) i clear everything but when i go to install the first part i get a status aborted status 7, please help any advice would be useful
What version of CWM do you have?
EDIT - After looking through the development thread for the ROM (which i'm going to assume you didn't) i found several mentions of your issue. The ROM devs confirmed my suspicion that the problem lies most likely in an outdated CWM recovery. Download Clockwork Rom Manager from the market and install the latest recovery version for your device, i'm going to assume its the AT&T SG3 but this is a guess since you didn't say what device you are using. Once the recovery is installed try flashing again. I'm going to make another guess and say you probably dont have a working OS on your phone either, if this is true you have 2 choices...you can either download the recovery from here CWM 6.0.1.2: http://db.tt/QHZZqecH and copy it to an external sd card and flash it from the the existing recovery OR you will have to flash a different rom that will boot up to get you to the market.
P.S. - In the future try to provide as much information as possible to help out whoever may be trying to help you. What phone you have, what rom you are on if any, what you have attempted in effort to fix the problem. The more info you give the easier it will be for someone to help you, and improve your chances of getting it fixed quickly.

Go to this link download the recovery.img
Follow the indications. Two methods are offered to you.
Android App Install Method (Preferred):
Download the GooManager app from either location:
Market Link
Direct Download
Install the app and open it. Tap menu then hit Install OpenRecoveryScript. Tap Yes. Verify that the filename displays your device's code name and hit Yes. The file will download and your device will install the recovery automatically.
Download - Recovery Image
Method (using dd):
openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-d2att.img
Download the above file.
Using adb shell or terminal emulator:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryfilename.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
Make certain that you get this command right. Typing the wrong number could result in a brick!

I would have to agree with liltitiz once you get the rom going and use TWRP, the interface is much easier to use, it includes a built in file manager as well as on screen keyboard support for naming backups as you run them.

Ok, go ahead to the google play store and search for clockwork rom manager, download this and install it. Once inside the app the top button will ask you to choose your device to install the latest recovery image, of course you are looking form Samsung Galaxy S3 AT&T. Once the download is complete it will automatically install, at this point you can click the reboot into recovery button and follow the OP for installing the ROM.
ROM manager for cwm recovery. You need to pay if you want touche recovery.
Or use the first method from my other post. Using goo manager from the play store to get twrp recovery. Which I prefer over cwm touch.
Either way are easy and depends only on what recovery you want

Yup, one at a time. No offense but two sets of instructions could be confusing to a new user. Get a working phone first, then go for the tweaks and experiment....a little at a time and carefully.
Haven't heard from him (or her) in a while, hope they are too busy checking our their sweet new ROM to let me know if they got it working :laugh:
Let's hope so. One.....drawback....I guess in android is that there is usually 7 different ways to get to the same end result and that's what confuses most new users.....too many options :what:

Drawback or exactly the point depending on how you look at it i suppose. Thats the beauty and challenge of open source, which is why reading and understanding what you are getting into is emphasized so much....although seemingly hopelessly sometimes.

Slight problem, when I get it from the site it comes as .img. However, when I click PDA on odin it does not show the file. How is it that the people who make it give you a file that cannot be opened in odin while a file I get from some random person can?
If you have the ClockworkMod ROM Manager app, it lets you update your recovery to the latest version. Which is still 6.0.1.2 still. Much easier than flashing or anything else.

I might switch. How do you remove CWM though?
Just download GooManager from the play store and open it, I think then you hit the menu key on your phone and hit "install recovery script". It will do everything for you.
I went to TWRP after CWM as well, and will never go back either!
