Hi, i'm trying to change my rom, but first i have to root te tab and change to cwm. The problem is that i'm a linux user so i can't use odin. How can i install the cwm with heimdall-fronted? it's not very intuitive and i can't find the PDA option.

Respect members,
I recently decided to upgrade by Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 from default 2.3.4 to "PACMAN Custom Rom" which looked amazing to me. I haven't USB cable so after a bit search, i found "Framaroot" and rooted by mobile. I have downloaded the "PACMAN Rom" but the only problem i have is that i am unable to flash "CWM recovery" without USB. Is there any solution? And if Once i flash "CWM recovery". Should i install "Dorimanx Kernel" as suggested by "bluefa1con" ? Dorimanx Kernel in its thread clearly states that you shouldn't flash the kernel if you are using GingerBread. Then how should i update? Should i just let the PACMAN Rom use the Stock Kernel.
Please don't mind if it seems kiddish because i am completely new to this.
Your Help is Appreciated.
You can flash cwm recovery without usb, you just need to find to correct package and flash it via stock recovery, i think you will need JB bootloader too tho. But, i don't recommend first time flashing without a USB cable, if something goes wrong you can't use odin to go back, so just borrow one or buy one, they aren't expensive, and you can flash JB stock via odin and then flash a custom rom, that would be better imo.
Either use the appropriate CF kernel to root and install CWM, or upgrade to JB/ICS using Odin and flash Siyah/Philz kernel. Then, once u have CWM recovery, flash your desired custom ROM.
hi guys

You don't need root to install a rom on those things. What is the error when installing the custom recovery? Does it flash successfully but once you boot to recovery, it isn't there? If so, it's because you have to make sure to boot to recovery BEFORE you allow it to boot to the operating system first. The phone has a script built in that checks to see if the recovery has been modded and rewrites the stock one to it. When the phone goes to auto reboot after installing the recovery, hit the button combo to enter recovery immediately, do your backup, then follow installation instructions for the rom you want.
If this is NOT the error you are receiving, please describe it.

I looked into it a bit, and pretty sure I know why you are having issues. This particular model has the recovery built into the kernel, so you actually need a kernel with the recovery part already replaced with a working custom one that is specifically for your firmware. There are 2 methods to install.
Odin: http://d-h.st/me0
Via Update via Zip in stock Recovery (3e): http://d-h.st/FpR
What slot are you trying to install from? It should be the AP slot for Odin 3.09.
If you want to try TWRP, well, it only works with 4.4.2 and comes prebundled in some Kit Kat roms like Omni
Hi all,
First of all, i'm not a total newbie, i have already flash HP Touchpad, Galaxy S and Galaxy Note with CM and OmniRom.
My problem is with Galaxy S2 : i9100.
I have already installed a compatible recovery (with Heimdall), found here on XDA : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/cwm-kit-kat-compatible-t2546597
I can go on recovery named (Android Recovery System (3e)), why it's not ClockWork ??
But, i can't flash any rom, i have always this message :
error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip status 7
I tried with adb, it's the same...
I tried to flash OmniRom, the same...
Could you help me please ??
If the recovery says '3e' then the CWM flash has not worked........
If, before you started, you were stock (4.1.2?) unrooted. You will need to flash a custom kernel to root your device and provide a basic CWM.......then you can flash your KK compatible CWM from within the existing CWM.........
If you *are* stock unrooted, you have two commonly used options....
1) use the android 3e recovery to flash PhilZ kernel.
2) use Odin to flash dorimanx or siyah or similar. Both will give you root and CWM, and in my own opinion, flashing PhilZ is easier.....
As with any 'non standard' procedure, read ALL the instructions before flashing.......
My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right
Hi everyone, i'm gonna install a new rom for my s3, so i want to ask you sth before install it
First, if install stock rom via Odin fail, may i boot into custom recovery to recovery my android OS?
Second, if install cr via Odin fail, may i use my phone normally?
Last, if install rom fail, may i boot into custom recovery to recovery my android OS?
Sorry for asking to much, just because i have once installed stock rom via Odin fail and i too scared after that.
All things are flashed with Odin, including custom recovery so if you can't get that to work then nothing will happen.
Follow the guide in general forum sticky thread on how to flash with Odin, understand what you are doing before you start.
Hello
I have a Samsung i9100G running ICS 4.0.3, build no. iml74k.jplp6, baseband i9100gxxlpr, and kernel is 3.0.8 [email protected]#2
I used to have it rooted via "one click root", and had CWM recovery.
After installing Slimkat rom, the recovery automatically became TWRP.
One of my friends wiped the entire phone, and the only way to fix was to restore the original FW "I9100GJPLP6_I9100GOJPLP5_I9100GXXLPR_HOME.tar".
Now, I can not root it, install CWM or TWRP recovery to install any other ROM.
I have searched a lot on xda but I am a rookie.
What I know is I have to root first then install custom recovery, but I can not find the root tool for my device and the custom recovery.
Flashify, rom manager, and other tools always see both recoveries but can not execute anything.
You could try to use different root methods. I used KingoRoot for PC to root mine. Hope I got your problem...
Why cant you root it?
Can you boot into recovery of Stock ROM?
KingoRoot does not support i9100g.
I can boot to the stock recovery.
