I've been trying to download the newest twrp via goomanager. It just gets stuck at "please wait while we download.." Or something. It never downloads though. I dislike CWR. Anyway I can get twrp? Also I heard the newest version of it, is a bit buggy. Which is the most stable version? Thanks.

You can get a version that you can flash in Odin.
From that same place you can get a version that you can install with an App from Google Play called Flashify.
If you want to you Odin get the .tar version. If you want to use Flashify with the .img version.
This is the place to look...

The latest version seems to be fine. There were some issues but I think they resolved them.

Just to make sure I don't mess this up. I downloaded the .IMG on the link above. Now when I open flashify, it gives me three options. Flash : boot image, recovery image, and zip file. Which do I click? Recovery image, correct?
Might sound like a noob, but better to be safe than sorry.

same exact issue with Note 1 on 4.0.4. "success" .... but its not there. sure would like to know how to cleanup after
Same problem
Same here, It downloads but doesn't reboot to flash, Just says was installed successfully in a text box at bottom of screen, but when i boot to recovery its still the old version. I think we will have to manually flash for our notes! :crying:
Goo manager requires root which I think all of you have but its not a good app either just download the .zip files from the original goo.im site and flash them manually
Goo.im and rom manager and/or any such app sux imao.
Just download recovery.img or .tar and flash it with mobile odin or odin.
Mobile odin supports both.

My brother has a At&t gs3 that needs to be sent for warranty. He still has stock firmware except that it's rooted and has a custom recovery. I assume all he has to do is flash the stock kernal to get rid of root and recovery, right? I Downloaded DLK3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1968625. The packed contents show 2 .img files, boot.img and recovery.img. Can these be flashed in odin, and is the boot.img the kernal and the recovery.img the recovery? I know that at least from the previous galaxy s models that the kernal was around 5.3 mb. But I may have mistakenly though that the recovery was part of the kernal.

Thank you for your reply. There is a guide to flash the complete package using odin. However, I am not trying to do that. Because where he is currently at, he does not have the bandwidth to download the 730+mb package, thus I am trying to just get him access to the kernal/recovery, so that he can flash that using Odin.

A different recovery can be flashed with the .img file through a terminal emulator on the phone. I am unsure about flashing anything else.
Okay, i found a couple tutorials on making odin flashable files, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484304 and http://www.sxtpdevelopers.com/showthread.php?t=155. I'm just not sure which of the files in the stockfirmware package is the kernel. I'm used to zImage, but don't see that in the list. There is a boot.img whish is 5.48mb, so i assume this is it, but not sure.

The boot.img is separate from the kernel. DO NOT mess with that.. you will definitely brick the phone.. Im no expert on any of this, but really the best way to go about this is with Odin. There is a mobile version of Odin in the play store. Mobile ODIN
Not sure if this is useful to you guys.

The answers you got in Task's threads still stand. It's either that you have to update your cwm (make sure it's d2att) or you'll have to use TWRP.
You can also redownload or
cut out a line in the updater script but I don't suggest that.

You need to update your recovery. Either use rom manager or, if you can't boot up, download an cwm flashable zip located at the bottom of post #2 in my signature link. Place it on a micro sd card and flash it in recovery. Go to advanced and reboot recovery. Flash rom and gapps again
Either your recovery is outdated, or you are trying to flash a device that isn't displaying itself as an i747 (d2att). This could be because your using a Canadian version of the s3, or your trying to flash the att Rom on a tmo,vzw, or Sprint version of the phone.
So I successfully rooted my S3 (Bell I747M), installed TWRP recovery, booted into the recovery, created a backup (thank god!), wiped using TWRP (factory reset -> wipe dalvik -> wipe cache -> wipe data) and then went into install, selected the CyanogenMod zip and swiped to flash. Failed. Every time. I tried numerous wipes but flashing CM just kept on failing. So I got fed up and restored to my backup.
But I really want CM! One more maybe-important thing is that when I was installing TWRP, it said my device was d2can, even though my device is actually I747M. But I remember when downloading CM I had to download the d2att version (that was listed as the one compatible with my I747M), but TWRP was saying d2can and not giving me the option to choose anything else so I just went with it.
Please try and help me!
Did you download the d2att version of cm?

Hmm alright, are you able to flash any other roms?
I had a similar issue and im trying to recall what I did to overcome this..
EDIT: I think I remember. I flashed a different CWM version and for some reason it prevented me from flashing CM10.1.. Do a google search for "CanadaGS3CWM6.0.1.2.tar" and let me know if it works. If you cant find it shoot me a PM and ill look for it.
Thanks for the reply.
I haven't tried flashing any other room but I have successfully flashed a debloating software made by mrRobinson.
Also‚ I'm not using CWM‚ I'm using TWRP. I installed it through the GooManager app found in the Play store.
If I have already installed TWRP then will I still be able to install that CWM file you are suggesting I install?
It is late now and I am going to bed but I'll be back on tomorrow evening to try again so I'll try what you said then.

Anyone have a clue as to what to do about that?

You'll need a d2att version of twrp. You can get the odin flammable file off their website.
You'll also need to verify your boot loader is up to date. Many people having the same problem.

Yup just in odin like a root file. It goes in the pda section. Uncheck reboot,. When it finishes unhook the cable pull the battery and than reboot into recovery after. Sometimes the flash doesn't stick after a reboot.
Cm10.1 has a release candidate out right now rc4 it's pretty stable.
You'll need to make sure your bootlader is up to date before you flash it though.

The second link has the latest boot loaders sorry I should have mentioned that. It has to match the one listed.
I don't know what you downloaded but the twrp recovery off their site should be the .tar to load in odin. The .img file you'd have to load using adb. Easier to use the odin file. No unzipping just flash with odin.

Flash the zip in recovery, tar in Odin. Your choice.
If you have the T999L TWRP doesn't have a recovery specifically for it. And I am glad they don't. Only use d2tmo (T999) recoveries. Otherwise your just adding one more reason some roms won't flash.

Thanks Doc. I definitely have the t999, not the L or any other version. I don't know why goomanager isn't recognizing it, I'll try flashing the zip in recovery. I forgot how much I don't like CWM.
The reason y'all are getting the errors with the goo manager app is because the servers have been down since Friday. They are replacing the servers, they have been warning for couple of months that they were doing it. They've said they will announce on their twitter when it's back up and running.
Are you running a custom Rom? Or flashed a mod? Sometimes the software you flash will report it as being different.
For example, I have a T999, but have posts all over here with T999L, T999V and T999N in the Sig!
