Galaxy S3 from at&t, i rooted my phone as soon as got it several months ago, I've flashed colockwordmode 3 times in the last day or so and i cannot make to work, i followed the steps exactly as described, Odin is showing the green pass, the binary cont is increasing every time I've tried but i can't get the phone to start in recovery mode by holding volume up, home and power! it just reboot and turns the phone on or it goes into the Samsung recovery mode (blue screen). Very frustrating!, anyone can please help.
BTW, when i rooted my phone i installed clockwordmode then and it worked fine, i had not has to use it since, I'm running the stock ROM i want to flash another ROM, before i do that i need to use clockworkmode and that's when i realized that it was not working anymore, then tried to flash it 3 times but no success. I still have root.
Have you tried twrp?

This will happen until you load a custom rom I believe. Same thing happened to me then when I installed a rom it started being able to boot into cwm

flash recovery again in odin but make sure the "auto reboot" box is NOT checked. once its done flashing, unplug it and remove the battery for a second. replace the battery and immediately hold down vol up+home+power. this should take you into cwm if it flashed correctly
this could happen when you didn't root it properly
anyways, if you are rooted(as you said), get twrp and see
+1 for twrp

If you still have root, you might want to try installing CWM directly from your phone, using the dd terminal command to copy CWM into the right partition:
Download the latest CWM .img file from CWM's site: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Put the file in your phone. For simplicity reason, I would suggest you put it in the root of your internal SD card. And because you will need to type the whole path+filename in the terminal in your phone, I would also suggest you rename the file to something simple, like cwm.img;
If you don't already have it, install Android Terminal Emulator;
Now, open the terminal emulator, and type the following commands:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/cwm.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
(That is, if you rename the CWM file to "cwm.img" and you actually put it in the root of your internal SD card. If you put it somewhere else or did not rename your file, you will need to adapt the "if=" part of the command.)
Profit.

Just curious: are you trying to flash CWM via Odin? If so where did you get it from? Did you install a botched version of stock recovery maybe (or one that is from another model of S3)? Try TWRP from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28019751&postcount=1. It is at the bottom of the post and it is labeled "Odin Flashable TWRP Recovery" under Miscellaneous files. Download and install via Odin.
And if you are on Jelly Bean, your flash counter will increment in your dealings with custom recoveries and roms. You only option at this point (if you have root still) is to get Triangle Away and run it in order to reset the counter. However, even if you clear your flash counter, if you go back into recovery it will trip again.

I'm still using stock ROM, i'd like to install a custom ROM but i'm reading that you have to have Clockworkmod to do a successful install.
When i check in the files of the phone (sd card) i can see the clockwordmod folder in there there but still can't get it to boot into cwm recovery, only the Samsung recovery and I've tried the volume up home and power button so many times but no success.
Why do you think it worked when i first rooted the phone and not now?
this is frustrating, thanks for the help.

Yes I've tried 3 times via Odin, i can't remember where i got the cmw file from, it's a tar file (clockworkmod.TAR), the part i don't understand is why when i first rooted the phone in August cwm worked, i used it to install the root and now after trying to install it again 3 times i can't get it to work.
I'm using the stock ROM, not jelly bean.
thanks for any help

Download goo manager app and open that. There will be an option to "install open recovery" in the menu. Voilà a superior recovery that's easier to use
You can even use it to boot into recovery or install the new update for it.

Easiest way to install TWRP is using GooManager from the Play Store.
1. Open GooManager.
2. Press the menu key to open the contextual menu, and select Install OpenRecoveryScript.
3. The app will ask you to confirm you really want to install a new recovery image.
4. GooManager searches for the correct TWRP build for your device. Look at the Filename line, it should display openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-d2att.img for AT&T or openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-d2can.img for Rogers/Bell/Telus. Again, confirm the installation.
5. Wait for the download to begin. TWRP will install. Done.
If it does not work or if GooManager does not find the correct build for your device -- in this latter case, this should raise a flag for you, as you may not have a SGH-i747/SGH-i747M; double check your phone model --, you can always install TWRP manually. From TWRP website (http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2), you can grab the IMG file to manually install from the terminal emulator, and a TAR file to install using ODIN.

So if that's the case (This will happen until you load a custom ROM) how can i back up my stuff before installing a new ROM? that's the reason i was trying to make cwm work so i could back my stuff.
Is there a different way to do a full back up?

if you have root, download Rom Manager and install cwm from the menu.
i've also heard that, if rooted, you can erase /system/recovery-from-boot.p and /system/etc/install-recovery.sh (using ES File Explorer or Root Explorer) an that will make cwmstick. this is due to newer software versions overwriting your stock recovery on reboot.

I found out the solution. After flashing done in Odin, just force into recovery mode without letting it boot to android, then we will see the CWM recovery, select reboot phone now then select Yes to disable from stock recovery on next boot.
Hope this help other user too.

Now whenever I try to go into recovery mode, I have the samsung logo which breaks down. After a while it will boot and I can use it. It's not bricked. It just won't go into recovery. I have installed Titaniumbackup and ROM manager and I don't know what to do. The cwm that I flashed through Odin said cmw6 but when I choose the version on ROM manager for recovery setup, I chose ClockworkMod 3.x+ and my phone says current recovery at cwm 5.x.x.x and I still can't acces recovery mode! Please help it is very frustrating for me. Thank you for reading.

is there a way to install a custom rom using odin? i can bypass recovery using odin right? or does that not work?

You can install a custom recovery using Odin (twrp being one of them). Very few roms are installed using Odin.

have u tried flashing philz recovery from odin there is an option to untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing power button until it reboots (normally will go to recovery)
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm
some people may can go into cwm by pressing volume up + power + home simultaneously. .. i already fix it.. during we push volume up + power + home, once at the logo of samsung, realease only the power button and keep pushing the volume up + home. It works at my note 2 to go into cwm.

Hi Guys, My phone is made in Vietnam. The language I see in download mode is Vietnamese. The baseband version is N7100ZHDMB1.
It says it is rooted, I have super user and titanium backup running but whenever I try to reboot to CWM the screen flashes gibberish and then goes to the Samsung Note II logo.
Should I still try this method?
The phone works fine but I want to run another ROM.

had the same issue. downloaded latest philz touch & flash by odin. rebooted & all is good. Now will root using Dr Ketan Multi Tool
Please have patience with this noob. When I look through titanium backup all the firmware programs have N7105HDMB1 while the "About Device" menu in settings say N7100HDMB1.
Which one of the Philz downloads should I use, N7100 or N7105?
Solved!
I used the Philz for N7100 and I am cooking with gas!!!!

Here is what you need to do:
1: setup odin in it's options so it will not reboot the phone
2: odin flash the twrp recovery TAR file using odin
3: when it's done flashing disconnect usb cable.
4: use the method I described to boot directly from the download screen into recovery.
5: in recovery you MUST flash @arter97;s v4.1 custom rooted kernel and supersu in recovery
6: after flashing the custom kernel POWER DOWN the phone.
7: after powerdown reboot into recovery mode, it will be twrp
unless you are doing something wrong. (users fault).
Don't allow the phone to boot or reboot.
The phone must go into recovery mode directly from the "downloading" odin mode screen.
When you are in the "downloading" screen you can also use the 4 finger option to get into
recovery mode.
Volume Up, Volume Down, Home Key and Power Button all at the same time (20 secs or so)
until you see recovery mode. Once you are in recovery use the power off option in it.
If you let the phone bootup by itself you will need to start all over again before you get root.
Doing all the above will root your phone.
Once you are in recovery use it's options to shut the phone down.
I'm confused I did steps 1 through 3 and then try to go into recovery mode with the 4 fingers and it goes into samsung recovery. Is that where I'm supposed to go or have I done something wrong? I know that it did the flash Odin says passed and phone shows knox tripped.

It's supposed to trip knox, that means the you have done a successful odin flash.
Yes when it gets into samsung recovery then you need to select the option to "power down".
After the phone is turned off then boot into recovery and you will have twrp.
Once in twrp flash the arter97 v4.1 kernel and flash supersu in the same twrp session.
No need to reboot into twrp twice.
Good luck!
I figured out how to get it working thanks for your help.

The phone must go into recovery mode directly from the "downloading" odin mode screen.
When you are in the "downloading" screen you can also use the 4 finger option to get into
recovery mode.
Volume Up, Volume Down, Home Key and Power Button all at the same time (20 secs or so)
until you see recovery mode. Once you are in recovery use the power off option in it.
If you let the phone bootup by itself you will need to start all over again before you get root.
Doing all the above will root your phone.
Once you are in recovery use it's options to shut the phone down.

The only kernal I can find is 928tw8. My tmo s6edgeplus is 928t. Is that the same thing?
Yes it is

Thanks. So is there any reason to not use 4.2+?

Never seen a 4.2
If you mean 4.3 its still in beta testing
So I would not recomend it unless you
want to be a beta tester.

Hi Misterjunky, Will this work on the T-mo latest OTA update (BOH6)? Thanks.
Yes, be sure you get the 4.1, 4.3 or the newer 5.0 version.
Any of those will work just fine.
Good luck!
Have a great evening.

Thanks a lot kind sir. Could someone point me to where to find the download link for the correct kernel version and philz recovery that works for my t-mo phone. Couldn't find the files/links on arter97 thread (kinda lost there with the long unorganized first post)
Thank you in advance.

Don't we have to enable oem unlock and remove fingerprint lock before doing all that?

Here is what you need to do:
1: setup odin in it's options so it will not reboot the phone
2: odin flash the twrp recovery TAR file using odin
3: when it's done flashing disconnect usb cable.
4: use the method I described to boot directly from the download screen into recovery.
5: in recovery you MUST flash @arter97;s v4.1 custom rooted kernel and supersu in recovery
6: after flashing the custom kernel POWER DOWN the phone.
7: after powerdown reboot into recovery mode, it will be twrp

Can you provide links please? There isn't much information on the edge plus. Everything keeps going to the note 5.
Thank your for all of the help.
