Another way, if you have installed ROM and want to update CWM can use this tool:
- Google play app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unstableapps.cwmrtouchinstaller
- Download older version: http://d-h.st/esM or http://d-h.st/M1y

OKay. Thank you! I will be copy your post to 1st topic.

You just flash the zip through CWM recovery like normal? I don't own this phone, I'm trying to upgrade my father in law's phone. I'm just trying to figure this all out before messing with his phone. I do NOT want to use Odin because I don't trust third party flashing utilities (have had bad luck in the past, particularly with Odin).
how do you go about doing it manually? I understand that the SGS2 doesn't have fastboot so something like
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.1-hercules.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
???

I am aware. I had to download it from the official Samsung site when i flashed my father in laws phone the first time. But i am a mac/linux user. Odin is not a good solution because it complicates a process that should be really straightforward, eg
Code:
sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
By third party software i mean not part of the android sdk. Odin is proprietary closed source and only works on Windows with a select few samsung phones, whereas fastboot is intended to be universally accessible.
But back to my initial question, do you just flash the. Zip in recovery like normal?

Really?
Download the latest .img file from here
Download the above file.
Using adb shell or terminal emulator:
su
dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-hercules-[xxx].img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22
#! please note the [xxx] should be which ever # twrp .img you choose to use
Make certain that you get this command right. Typing the wrong number could result in a brick!

It is harder to help you when you post the same question to different threads. I only gave you the link to this thread so you could download the Odin flashable CWM tar file from the OP IF you are not able to install CWM using ROM manager. Have you tried ROM manager already?

Have you tried installing the .tard.md5 posted in the OP, it should work through Odin.
Edit: I've tested the files and Odin crashes.
Has anyone had luck installing the .tar.md5 files, there's a bunch of downloads but no feedback.

CWM 6.0.3.1 Touch Odin Flashable
I made and tested this one and it worked. I think the problem is that you have to rename the img file to recovery.img before making the tar file. Let me know if it works for you.

Flashing CWM in IMG format?

Hi all,
I have the latest CWM Touch currently installed. For future reference and needs, I would like to be able to flash back to this easily using ODIN. However, the recovery comes in an IMG file, which I don't think I can flash in either CWM or ODIN. So how do I convert or find a flashable TAR for use in ODIN?
Thanks!
Well an 'inside question,' how did you flash / install your current cwm, and why wouldn't you be able to use the same method of installation?

That, and what that app does is basically the following
Code:
adb shell su -c "dd if=/sdcard/download/cwm-d2spr.img of=/dev/block/mmblkp018"
"if" means "in file" and "of" means "out file", or in this case the location of the recovery partition

You can just use rom manager to install cwm or you can use these tar files I made for Odin.

[Q] Flash Stock Firmware TWRP

I'm trying to flash back to the Stock firmware with TWRP. I have the zip file on my SD card but when I try to flash it is reporting that it is unable to open the zip. I confirmed that the file is downloaded correctly and not corrupt as I am able to access/extract it on my PC without issue. Any ideas on how to get past this?
Its probobly an ODIN zip not a CWM zip. Extract the zip and if it has a .pda in it then you have to use ODIN on your PC

The name of the Zip file is
SGH-I317_ATT_I317UCAMA4_I317ATTAMA4.zip
I downloaded it from a couple locations that listed it as the stock AT&T firmware for this phone. Each location same error.

Im pretty sure that the one you downloaded is just zipped factory firmware and not flashable zip. You will need to extract tar file inside if there is one and flash Via Odin. If you are using it for att there is one that you can flash via twrp from link below.

Ah thanks for the help, I think thats my problem. Testing with the link you provided. Thanks.
I wonder why we see a lot of people asking questions here about install errors from files they got at some random (and often unheard of) sites around the Internet? Don't people know that xda has all the files they could need?

[Q] Hi guys - Stock recovery

How does one backup the existing stock recovery, before installing Clockwork or whatever other custom recovery you have?
I'm assuming you can't use Download mode, because that's just one direction, from computer to cell.
Could you maybe use a program like Root Explorer to copy the stock files to the SD card?
If this is possible, how would you package it into a tar suitable for Odin later on?
Thanks guys!

CF Auto Root gives you root and stock recovery. Not sure if thats what youre looking to do?

I thought that was only for rooting your cell, not making a backup of the current recovery code.

I'm on Android 4.3, so I would like the 4.3 version of stock recovery available before I replace it with Clockwork or Twerp.

It really doesn't matter what version of stock recovery you have, they're all the same.

So if I extract recovery.img from Samsung's tar.md5 package, can I just use Odin to load the .img into the cell, or do I need to add a script to it?

Where do I get latest cwm zip?

Newb question I know, but I honestly searched everywhere. Their homepage only has .img files and I've managed to find a few relatively new .tar files but I need a .zip of 6.0.4 whatever the latest version is so I can flash it within cwm already (Can't Odin since work PC's permissions won't let me).
If someone could tell me where to get the cwm flashable zip of newest CWM that would be amazing, or how to make one myself.
Thank you in advance.
