From what I'm reading, trying to flash CWM recovery via ROM manager doesn't work right, and I can't find a working link to codeworkx's kernel. Anyone have any idea how I can get to CWM recovery?

Flash Entropy's or Siyah's kernel. They both have CWM included.

in order to install CM9 rom u have to first root ur Phone using a CF-root Kernel
since Cm9 cannot be flashed with Stock recovery as it needs Custom recovery
so first root ur phone and then install CM9
My phone is already root. (with any PC )
CWM.zip is a ClockWorkMod in a ZIP to load in memory a CWM-recovery 5.X
What is a CF-Root kernel ?

CF- chain Fire-Root kernel will root ur phone and install custom recovery on ur Phone
so if ur phone is already rooted then install the CWM.zip file, then reboot into cwm recovery and install the CM9 zip file
before that in cwm recovery make a nandroid bkp of ur exsisting rom first
and also follow the instructions of flashing CM9 rom carefully form there thread OP
Thanks, i will try in 2 days

You root it using the same method as before, I assume via ODIN, but with an LP7 CF-Root kernel.

Try flashing a PDA which has a CF-root available ( via PC-ODIN).
Then flash the CF root to gain root and CWM.

Hey guys,
I have just need some help.
I got a s2 4.0.4 (no root) and would like to install the disaster custom rom.
Because i have 4.0.4 and can brick my phone i need some helps/tips..
So as i understand i need cwm to flash the custom rom.
To get cwm i need root. Well, which root methode should i use?
I want one with cwm and supersu in it.
Oh, and after i have root on the 4.0.4 and flash the 4.1.2 custom rom do i keep my root?

Just dwnld the 'Siyah kernel v4.1.5 or v5.0.1' (tar file for ODIN) and flash the same thro 'Odin' on ur pc.
It will automatically Root ur phone and install 'SuperSu' and latest CWM recovery for u.
then using the cwm recovery of siyah kernel u can flash any custom rom of ur choice.
after flashing the custom rom based on 4.1.2 u wont loose ur root
ps- once u install custom kernel like siyah ur phone will be safe from the 'Brick Bug' issue for sure
Flashed the Siyah Kernel.
About to flash custom rom
but got one finally question.
The custom rom; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498017
Says it has philz kernel or whatever
so can i still flash it? and does it change my kernel?
Does it have a effect on me?

Yes, u can flash it and the Kernel (philz) that comes with that rom will replace ur Siyah kernel for sure but u wont loose ur root
it will not have any effect on u though
do follow the install instruction for a successfull flash of the rom.
Cheers!!
Thanks, it works!!
Am a beginer in this awesome flashing world,so trying to understand the basics...
Recently I rooted my phone (I9100) and installed Philz touch based CWM but after flashing a custom ROM the CWM was changed to
non touch ,so my question is does a ROM installs its own CWM along with its kernel overwriting
the exisiting CWM on my phone?
Is there any way to keep the Philz touch based CWM after flashing the ROM
Hello and welcome.
Yes, it may be that each rom installs its own kernel along with CWM.
And yes, you can download the philz touch version from XDA and flash it using Recovery. Just search for it in the forum.

ok thanks a lot for your reply....
Yes each rom has its only recovery be it cwm or twrp and don't flash philz on a custom rom. Philz is for stock based roms only.
Hi all, my second ish post on xda (yes im a moderate android noob), i am after some advice and help on flashing CM11 to my S2 (Intl), as it feels really outdated (because it is) and also quite slow (because it is). Ive read about the brickbug and i ran Chainfire's GotBrickbug tool and it said "unknown chip, not sure if dangerous, at least it isnt known to be bad. The chip is V3U00M and the revision is 0xE. I also ran another checker and it said sane chip. Im running the stock 4.0.4 (rooted with Framaroot and removed carrier rubbish) and apparently 4.0.4 is prone to bricking. Ive read about flashing new kernels (Siyah etc) and other methods. I know there is the 4.1.2 update, does that remove the chances of brickbug so i can then flash CM11 via CWM? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Official 4.1.2 firmware is safe, only 4.0.4 has brickbug.
So do i just upgrade to 4.1.2 then use odin to flash CWM 6.0.4.5 and then follow normal procedure? Thanks for replying btw

Download XWMS3 4.1.2 from sammobile site(you have to log in). Then use Odin to flash it. Download PhilZ xwms3 kernel and put kernel zip on sdcard. Reboot in stock Samsung recovery and flash that kernel zip file. Then reboot again in recovery and flash philz 6.0.5.0 touch recovery.
Or... You can root 4.1.2 with siyah kernel, but you need to flash kitkat compatible recovery

Yes, you can use OTA to update your android. Then you need to root your phone and install CWM compatible recovery to flash CM11

Thanks heaps man, ill probably use Framaroot as it is easy and it works atm, hopefully ill be a happy user of CM11 haha
I just thought I'd say I've got the S2 on OmniRom 5.1 now after using a rather unstable and buggy CM11 nightly. Thanks for your help BTW
