Problem flashing custom recovery - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone i've got a problem.
I wanted to install cm11 on my ace 2 so first of all i rooted it. I then tried to flash custom recovery cwm6
I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583845
flashed it, and got this error:
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/recovery.img", "recoveryonly")
E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip (status 7)
install_package = (1)

I then tried another custom recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141395
again, i got that error plus that the signature verification failed.
I saw that the second recovery is just an update for cwm 5 so i thought i must flash cwm 5 and then update it to 6.
Can anyone please help me and give me a valid link to a recovery that will work?
Thank you.
EDIT: I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2682888
and tried to flash every of the recovery through odin and it didn't work.
I get this message:

Try flashing a stock rom via odin. This will restore your stock recovery and you can further change it according to your needs. Then you can try out other roms.

[Q] SGH-I747 trouble writing to /cache during flash, need troubleshooting advice

Hi all,
I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 16GB (SGH-I747). Recently my phone starting locking up and shutting down on occasion, and yesterday it got much more frequent before refusing to boot at all. When I power on the phone it proceeds as normal up until the "Samsung Galaxy S III" logo screen before and then hangs.
I can enter recovery and download modes. I am also able to flash new recoveries using Odin (I tried switching to stock, and when that didn't work, back to CWM. No problems either time) But when I try to flash the stock ROM again, Odin hangs up on the /cache section of the flash and produces the following log:
Note: The only option I have checked in Odin is Auto Reboot
Code:
<ID:0/007> Added!!

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
It's worth mentioning that I've tried to clear/format the cache several times with Clockwork Recovery, but it can't seem to mount, write or read the partition. The message I receive after taking almost any action in Clockwork (presumably because it's trying to update the cache) is this:
Code:
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
I've also tried using Odin along with a pit file to repartition the device. It appears successful, but then still can't flash the image. Here's the log for that:
Note: In this case, I obviously have Re-Partition checked as well as Auto Reboot, but nothing else is selected.

Does anyone know how I can revive my phone? I'm not very familiar with the android environment or filesystem, and I'm hoping the problem is just that I'm doing something wrong/stupid.
Looks like you have the 4.3 bootloader and you cannot flash a stock 4.3 ROM in Odin unless you are using a a 4.3 ROM that has been compiled for flashing via Odin.
Don't use Odin with any ROM prior to 4.3.

I've tried flashing Philz Touch recovery but that fails as well.

Help?

Try flashing with odin again but before flashing open the tar and remove the bootloader out of it.
Hi, thanks for the reply cnote.
Would the bootloader be sboot.bin or boot.img or both?
thanks again
edit: or rather, how do you remove the bootloader and remake the tar file?

I believe it;s both. Just retrieve the tar file only.
sboot is the bootloader boot.img is the kernel .Have you tried the latest NH2 for your phone also maybe try using a pit file
The nh2 you will have to get from sammobile and the pit file can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2609871
Also after odin is finished go into factory recovery and do a factory reset or its just going to sit at the boot screen
flashing pit file also gives an error :S

[Q] Root Failed and Need help Flashing Rom

Our daughter deleted all of the pics on my wife's phone. She tried to use Dr. Fone, but someone told us that it failed because her phone wasn't rooted. So I tried to root it from this post on cnet:
It failed during the root. Now it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again. Which I tried and also failed.
After a lot of heart ache and hours working on it, i have what a friend told me was the right tar file. I have attached the error in Odin.
When I run the tar file in Odin here is what the output screen shows:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_I747UCDLK3_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

Then my phone screen show this:

Not really my area of expertise at all. Any help would be appreciated!!
Thanks,
Brian
You cannot flash that tar file onto your phone. It is failing because that file is trying to downgrade the bootloader.
I recommend not flashing anymore files until you know the bootloader version of your phone.
I recommend you flash the latest Philz Touch custom recovery using desktop Odin from here:https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
Use Philz to flash the latest CM11 and Gapps. Then install the Samsung Phone Info app from the play store to verify your bootloader.
Once you know your bootloader, let us know the version.
