Just rooted 2.3.6 ( no custom recovery yet) and want to install cwm or twrp (prefer twrp) in order to flash cm10.
Can I put on cwm touch at this point or do I need another cwm version since I'm still on gb.
Don't want to use rom manager to install cwm either so need a manual or other method.
Anyone have a method to get me up on jb or newer?

Where can I find the stock recovery for the T-Mobile SGS3? I have a complete stock, rooted SGS3 with the Team Winn Touch Recovery downloaded from GooManager. I just received the OTA update and wanty to download it. I want to use the triangle away app, flash the Stock Android Recovery and then use the Super User App to UnRoot the phone. I think this will allow me to download the OTA update and then I can just root the phone again and flash the recovery from GooManager.
Where can I find that Stock Android Recovery???
Thanks,
Vinny
Here you go. This is the most recent version from the latest UVALH2 update. It should work fine with any ROM.
thanks
Do you flash recovery through Odin or CWM/Twrp?

I accidentally flashed CWM 6. How can I flash CWM 5? Can I go over it with ODIN for an automatic downgrade or do I need to flash back to stock first? Ultimate goal is to root (phone is not rooted yet) that install Cyanogenmod. Thanks.

What do you mean accidentally flashed? Unless I'm missing something here, why don't you just use CWM 6 to flash CM?
I personally use twrp...but u can always find the tar file on xda and flash in odin

I used odin downloader to reflash the cwm recovery 5 on a Samsung Galaxy FiT. Installed cwm 6 to get that original 4.4.2 firmware but i wasn't satisfied of it, and i went back to cwm 5 to install another custom firmware cuz cwm 6 wouldn't allow me (error: Status 7).

I don't understand why you want to downgrade...philz latest has zero issues flashing any ROM..kk or not. There are no status 7 issues with his latest. So do yourself a favor and download his latest, flash whichever ROM you wish (which 90% of them are already rooted) and profit. If you want to backup your apps before just flash super su and you will be rooted. If you are on mk3 the process may a little more difficult but its still easy. Google is your friend man.

Is it possible to install stock ROM that I've downloaded from sammobile by CWM (such as unpacking them ,...)?
and how do I know it contains value pack or not?
And flashing stock firmware using cwm is can't be done. If you want to flash stock firmware use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467128

Check with mobile odin..if ur device is capable to use why not just use it.i had one..very nice..flash via mobile is much more simple and easy without pc/laptop.

to flash stock ROM via CWM it requires that the stock rom be in ZIP format
BTW i dont think CWM can flash stock as stock has its recovery!!
I didn't find anything in search, so here goes.
Anyone tell me how to get root after manually updating to JB? Would I have to re-install CWM via Odin again?
The rooting process is the same for jb.
If you updated manually out is possible that you still have root but may have lost your custom recovery. The newer builds (lg8 and later) have code that replaces the stock recovery of the signature does not match.
If that has happened your best bet is to flash cwm using Odin again but you must also disable the code that replaces the recovery. Do a Google search for Team Epic Root From Recovery for the process.
You need to flash the recovery with Odin and then get into recovery before you not the Rom so that you can then flash the Team Epic Root From Recovery file.

and now I am a step away from installing a custom recovery but which one and how? I have checked here a lot but some say use Freegee to do the rest but freegee hangs up and goes into a constant reboot so I had to install 10P all over again. Which recovery is to be installed and how? Any links to flashable recoveries would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Which phone are you using and which rom? If your using stock rom, jb is the easiest to root and install the recovery with freegee. Make sure you have root, and installed the busybox before you use freegee.

I have the G Pro and the 10P ROM. I installed everything as you said and rooted the phone with towelroot, installed busybox and then freegee but no dice. Thanks.
You can download cwm flashable image for lg flash tool from clockworkmod's web site. Is 10p the stock kk? You need 10g which is the stock JB and go from there.
