You need to flash cwm via odin. Yes you need it to flash another rom and yes you need a PC.

Hey mate thanks for that.
I have downloaded it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901196
must be the latest version. I was wondering is it normal to not have CWM when you root via Exynos Abuse v 1.40 apk? I have downloaded ROM manager and there wasnt my phone option. thats why I was seeking for help.

Exynos Abuse only root your phone, it will not install cwm or busybox. You'll need to install them separately...

You should try twrp. More user friendly and can be flashed without pc.

If you want to just flash zip file then no need to use CWM recovery (you have to use stock kernel too if you want to reset counter at every boot, if warranty is concern for you)
simply flash zip file with mobile odin without having CWM.

Hey dr I wanted to ask if I install say a rom which uses aroma and has many ways to configure installation and I flash it with ota/update.zip will I get aroma installer?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

practically i never used any custom ROM, but custom ROM having it then you should get by flashing flashable zip of ROM with OTA/Update zip by mo odin.

I am saying that will it present me the aroma ui...

[Q] Problems with Odin - Stuck at "setup connection..."

Hi guys. I've got a problem..... I tried flashing CWM 6.0.3.4 to my Wonder, I open Odin, I choose files (Ancora.ops and CWM), Odin recognises my phone, but when I press "Start", the program gets stuck at "<1> setup connection..."
I tried changing USB cable, port, even Odin (I tried 4.43 - 4.38 and 3.98), but nothing has changed..... I am running Windows XP, and I have installed only Samsung USB Drivers, without Kies. But, as said before, Odin recognises my Wonder..... even tried on another XP computer, and have the same result...... please help me

I followed the Odin guide step by step, but I can't solve the problem..... BTW, my Wonder is unrooted, so I can't install CWM via terminal

Lol bro he's unrooted and trying to flash cwm. Don't you think it's pretty obvious he's using stock rom?
Bro, you have to root it first, only then you should flash CWM. Because you can't root using cwm. Anyway, root first then flash via terminal emulator. Should work.

[Q] N5100 Stock Recovery flashable via Odin

Hi,
I'm trying to flash my tablet with the stock rom, unfortunately the Nand Write fail again and again...
I bought 2 USB cables, I tried many computers... but nothing
I read somewhere that flashing the stock recovery would help. But I can't find it.
Anybody know where I can find the stock recovery flashable via Odin ?
Thank you by advance

Not sure, but every Firmware (Download at sammobile) contains all parts, even recovery.img. May be u can flash this via ur custom recovery. U need to know what partition to flash. But u can use any recovery-flashable ZIP from another recovery and change the recovery.img in the ZIP before flashing it in custom recovery. Simply extract recovery.img from Firmware.tar.md5 (rename to .tar and open with ZIP-Programm)...
As I said, there is recovery.img in all Original-Firmwares, so if it wont write to nand, I dont think it would help to flash recovery before flashing Firmware, but may be...

AT&T Galaxy SIII Downgrade from CM11?

I'm trying to downgrade my i747 from CM11 back to stock AT&T firmware but I'm unable to. I've done hours of searching and reading posts, coming up with dead ends.. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I can't seem to find an official original AT&T image, I did find a "rooted leaked" image.. but when I try to flash it with Oden it fails and the phone says "SW New Check Fail: Fused 2 > binary 0"
I ran the triangle away, tried a few different roms... I can re-image CM but not anything older. Is there a thread that explains where I can find the proper AT&T stock rom and roll back from CM11?

If you have the stock 4.3 bootloader, you cannot use Odin to flash a stock AT&T 4.3 ROM because AT&T never made a flashable 4.3 ROM available. AT&T only made 4.3 available as an OTA update to an existing ROM.

Thanks, so what are my options if any? I installed the CM11 through their http://get.cm site so I'm not sure what exactly they're doing but the end result is I have CM11, ODIN for the updater, and CWM. Can I downgrade to an older version then and just perform carrier updates to 4.3? If not is it safe to flash some other third party ROM? Or am I stuck on CM11?
-Keith

Boot into download mode and let us know what it says on the screen. This will help us determine if you have the 4.3 bootloader on your phone.

Download mode says:
ODIN MODE
Product Name: SGH-I747
Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 Counts)
Current Binary: Custom
System Status: Official
Qualcom Secureboot: Enable
Warranty Bit: 1
Bootloader AP SWREV: 2

I'm thinking of trying the approach that I found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658486
Unless any reason's why I shouldn't, it seems people have been successful with that pseudo 'stock' build.

Based on your download info screen, you have the 4.3 bootloader and the link you provided would be a good choice.
If you didn't have the 4.3 bootloader, you could have flashed a stock 4.1.1 ROM via Odin. With a 4.3 bootloader, you cannot use Odin.

I tried that link but the flash failed..
format() expects 3 args, got 5
E:Error in /external_sd/ATT_i747_UCUEMJB_StockRestore_CWM_2282014.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted.
Ugh..

Status 7 errors can be caused by using an outdated recovery.

I have 6.0.4.7 installed and downloaded the ZIP that says it's for that version but I keep getting the same error.

Maybe the ROM download is corrupt?

Did you verify the MD5 of the zip you downloaded? I haven't seen any other report of this not working as it is the definitive solution for returning to stock 4.3.It's possible your download wasn't complete or, as Audit suggested, the zip was corrupted in some way.

I downloaded a different recovery as suggested and was able to flash that way. I'm finally back on the pseudo-stock AT&T firmware and aside from one strange popup everything seems to be working great. Thanks for the help everyone,

Are you flashing via Odin or from CWM? Philz Touch can be flashed from either (i.e. the zip for flashing from an SD card and tar for Odin).

I assume you can boot into download mode so use the latest tar version of Philz to flash recovery. Philz is based off the latest CWM.
https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
Place the file in the PDA box, don't check anything except F.reset. Flash the file, once you see reset in the status window, remove USB cable, remove battery, replace battery, boot into recovery.

GT-N7102 recovery/rom help

hello everyone, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note II(GT-N7102 Daul sim) that i got from a friend of
mine. im not sure if its a clone or not but im having hard time putting in a custom recovery. the odin
method will not work nor will it go into odin mode and yes ive tried several different ways and it simply
will not work. ive been at this for about a week now.
so my question(s) at this point is:
1. Is there a flash-able recovery zip file that i can install via stock recovery?
2. Is it safe flash a custom recovery using the skipsoft tool kit via sideloader in the stock recovery(ADB)?
or
3. is it safe to install a custom recovery through the Rom Installer App?
morale of the story here folks is i just want put in a custom english rom but i cant do that without a custom recovery. and if anything i just want Gapps to work on my current rom(for now anayways)
also this probably off topic but i would like to know if theres a way to tell if i have a clone or not
your help and wisdom will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!

You must flash first custom recovery from Odin Other you can flash via recovery.
Also the newest I think 2.7.1.0
