Are you letting go of the buttons when you see the small blue text at the top left of the screen? Does it go to stock recovery? What happens?
Extract the recovery.img file and dd it to mmcblk0p21.

Uncheck auto reboot.
When odin finishes, disconnect usb and pull battery.
Reboot and enjoy your new recovery.
BUT MAKE SURE ODIN FINISHES!!!

Click on PDA that's it if you can do it. Make sure nothing like partition is checked that would mess you all up. Never knew they had a odin su zip then again I never checked.

no option to verifiy signature

so basically on my CWM i dont have the option to toggle verification signature nor do i have the option to install from zip.
these are the options i have on my CWM
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from ext. storage
wipe date/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update cache
this is not my first time rooting, i had a tmobile G2X it was simple to install CWM and root it, no troubles, was able to toggle signature verification but this samsung s3 is giving me problems
Looks to me more like you have stock recovery, not cwm.
Look for /system/install-recovery.sh and delete/ rename it. Then reinstall cwm.

i downloaded the IMG file and when i open up ODIN -> PDA i dont see the file.....i know it suppose to be a tar file how do i convert it?
Sorry. Could've sworn I uploaded the tar format too.
Just archive it into a .tar format, no compression (choose "store").
7zip should do this.

I've tried that before and it never worked because of incorrect permissions.
If it doesn't work, check my signature.

OP...
There is a much easier way to flash recoveries. Pay attention.
Download recovery img. Image file... Not tar.
Movie file to the root of your SD card internal.
Name file "buckshank.img"
Download terminal emulator from market.
Open terminal emulator.
Type this:
su
dd if=/sdcard/buckshank.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 (hit enter... You'll get an output)
Then type:
reboot recovery (enter again)
Profit

I recommend to never use this method. Because typo = brick. It's just not a good idea. It's actually slower to type all that out than it is to drop into recovery or use Mobile ODIN.
It is a simple command, but remember a lot of people who ask for help with this stuff don't even know what terminal emulator is.
It's just best to keep it as simple as possible and continue using things the way they are used to using them.
And don't forget about those who might think they want to experiment with this new command, or try to recommend it to others and get it wrong.
I've seen all sorts!
Also, when a question has been answered already, be careful telling someone to stop and do it your way. It can confuse the person seeking help and depending on how you say it, can easily offend the person who already posted a solution.
(No.I didn't take any offence)

A lot of people who come here wanting to help others started out the same way. You try to help people learn not just the what to do, but the how and why. Unfortunately many don't have any interest in any of that and you can start to feel like your time is wasted. Which leads to no longer enjoying what you came here to do.
That's a big reason why I sometimes to give the shortest and simplest answers I can, and leave it at that. Another is simply due to how much time I have. But if someone wants to know more I am more than happy to share.
Obviously there are a lot of folks here who do not fit this description, and you can sometimes judge by their first or follow up posts if they are interested in more info. Most of them you will start to recognize as regulars and get to know them after a while.

You were not on CWM before. That was stock recovery.
The CWM you flashed is old. Link in my signature to the newest one.

Sorry about that. I hadn't actually done it that way myself, but thought it would be a quicker easier way. Didn't consider that it might not work! My bad on that one.
Use the one from Aerowinders sig. You'll want the up to date version.

cf auto root should work for root. what did you use to root? if you are rooted install a custom recovery and flash a knoxfree rom from the dev section
Flash CF auto root via Odin then download latest superuser from play store and you are ready to go.

Did you try this method, if so did it work for you? Im having similar issues with my tmobile note 2 running 4.3 too. I'd appreciate it, thanks in advance...

Just as a suggestion, something that happened to me while playing around with the phone: if you're running Stock rom and then flash a custom recovery via Odin (I used Philz Touch) upon booting on recovery just to wipe cache/dalvik I found something interesting: my phone wasn't rooted, so when chosing the option "reboot system now" a message that said something like "root is broken, would you like to root your phone before rebooting" appeared. I was curious, as I normally use a website called Kingo root that does it in a one-click kinda way. When I chose Yes in the recovery, upon booting my phone it was rooted. After, I just intalled Chainfire's SuperSU from the play store and it was all good.
It's worth trying I believe.
Cheers

I have a question. If you don't run odin as a administrator do you get this error message: Windows cannot access the specific device path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access. The last time I tried to root my phone i didn't run odin in administrator mode. I'm just finding out about this recently. I have all of the files installed on the computer and ready. Odin, recovery, keis, and supersu zip on sd card. Im just trying to figure out why I got that error message. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance... Awaiting your response...

The only answer that pops up in my mind would be that you weren't running Odin as an administrator, like you mentioned. Maybe try running Odin as an admin, or alternatively (and I haven't tried this myself but Chainfire's thread gives a good step-by-step and people in the forum do help) use mobile Odin ------> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899. The first time I wanted to root my phone I was having issues too, not being able to do it because of lack of experience. I stumbled upon this website: http://www.kingoapp.com/. Check it out, if you would like. This kingo app is a downloadle app (kind of like Odin) that Roots yourm phone alone, without needing to flash anything. The step-by-step's are there, just turn on your developer options and then turn on USB debugging. I personally rooted A Galaxy Tab, SIII, a Note I i717 and an Asus MemoPad with that website and it worked perfectly for me. Rooting via custom recovery is something that I learned recently, and by chance. I do not know whether it trips the Knox counter or not to be honest with you, to me it doesn't make a difference since I will not be returning any of the devices I rooted, After rooting the phone like so you could potentially download mobile Odin from Chainfire's thread and then use Odin without needing to use your computer.
Hope this helps

Yeah that was it, i rooted it earlier today. I do have another question for you. I ran root checker pro and it says I'm rooted. I tried to install busybox but it said remove supersu permissions reinstall supersu and to delete and reinstall busybox. Also the adb shell doesn't have root access either. So is that a common occurrence, or is it the norm after rooting and installing custom recovery? Awaiting your reply. Thanks in advance...

Sorry for the late reply, hadn't been to the forum in a minute. To be honest with u, I don't know for sure. I haven't personally yet served myself from adb so I can't tell u. However, the reason why you received that response from busybox may be because when u were partially rooted it gained root access (if it ever did, I only assume).
Try what was asked of u and I'm sure busybox will work no problems. Also, if u have the terminal emulator apk try entering the command "root" (without the ") and if u gain roots access it will definitely mean you are rooted for sure.
What do you want to use adb for, if I may ask?

[Q]Tried every suggestion for rooting Galaxy Note2 with Kot49H.l900vpucne2 4.4.2

I have been trying for days to root my Galaxy Note 2. running Kot49H.l900vpucne2 4.4.2. an update I could not stop.
Any way, I have tried, Note 2 tool kit, cf-odin, jodin3, and various other ideas I found in many forums. I have tried changing the file extension
everything. I am very perplexed! I have found the knox files, all 10 of them, but I can not delete anything without Root.
I have even tried the other Recovery programs too, none will take hold. The knox thing is a big hurdle. I can not mount them either. One denial after another. I hope I can get some other ideas today. I can not even change the rom, all I get is fail.. Also, none of the settings I give it stay either, like system update. I have turned it off and it just comes right back.I had Whompasaurus on here and I needed to update to the original to load a new rom, MK4. I could really use some step by step instructions.
I have tried using Philz touch too.
I can not believe no one has a answer or suggestions for me.
Thought this was a place to get help.
First, did you manage to root yet? If not did you try Chainfire Auto-Root (or was that "cf-odin"?) If not, hopefully, these two pages should help. I successfully rooted my Sprint Note 2 (NE2) (SPH-L900) using it. Be sure to make sure you choose the right package for your model. Good luck.
