Method 1 (easiest in my opinion)
1. Open the .tar.md5 file with the firmware you are using.
2. Extract zImage and put it on the sdcard.
3. Use CWMManager from within the rom and use the 'Flash a kernel' option, the device will autoreboot
Method 2
1. Download a kernel in a CWM compatible .zip
2. Reboot to clockworkmod recovery
3. Use 'install zip from sdcard' option and select the appropriate .zip file
4. Reboot device
Method 3
1. Get the stock kernel for your firmware in .tar format from this thread
2. Reboot into download mode
3. Open Odin and click on PDA and select the .tar file you just downloaded and click start. Device will auto reboot
Method 4 (Paid app)
1. Get stock kernel in .tar file.
2. Open Mobile Odin and select Kernel and the .tar file
3. Reboot device
In case you don't know how to get on Download mode: Hold together :
Power Button, Home Button and Volume Down button for some seconds.This will boot you into Download Mode.Same combination but Volume Up instead will boot you to your Recovery Mode.

Back up your current Kernel with with hellcat's K-Tool,
this will dump your kenrel on the SD card root as a "zimage" this can be restored with the same tool if something goes wrong with installed custom kernel.
Better immedietly after dumping the kernel, just put it in a folder on the SDcard with name Stock kernel or somthing, to avoid miximg up with other "zimage"s and accedental flshing.....
thanks everyone for helping...

Can anyone give me a detailed step-by-step guide on how to flash clockwork recovery to my cousin's Verizon Fascinate? He's tried using ROM Manager, each time it says flash is successul but reboots to stock recovery. I've Googled it and it looks like it has to be done with a computer? All of the Odin stuff is a bit confusing, so can anyone point us in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The more detailed the guide, the better.

There is a pretty good step by step to get you started in the evil fascination thread in the development section

You can't flash CWM with ROM Manager. You need to flash the recovery kernel with Odin, as well as flash a patched/custom kernel to the standard kernel partition.
1. Download Odin 1.3, CWM recovery kernel for Odin, and Custom/Patched kernel
2. If the custom/patched kernel is in zip format, transfer it to your sd card
3. Pull the battery from the phone, hold in on the Volume Down button, and plug in the USB cable that should also be plugged into your computer. Make sure to continue holding the volume down button while plugging in the USB cable.
4. Phone should now be in download mode. Open Odin and verify that your phone is recognized.
5. Click the PDA button and browse to the CWM kernel you downloaded (.tar or .tar.md5 file) then click start.
6. If the patched/custom kernel you downloaded was in .tar or .tar.md5 format, repeat steps 3-5, this time select the patched/custom kernel and flash it.
7. Put the battery back in. If you downloaded a cwm zip file for the kernel, boot directly into recovery by holding both volume keys while pressing the power button. If it doesn't boot into recovery, you'll have to re-flash CWM and retry. Flash the kernel zip in recovery. If you already flashed a patched/custom kernel via Odin, you don't have to boot to recovery and can just start the phone up normally.
See here for a general overview of the Odin flashing process. It says modem, but just replace the modem file with the kernel/recovery file as the procedure is the same regardless.
Thanks for the help.

Hi, I recently flashed cf-root after buying my gs2. I installed rom manager and flahed cwm 4.0.0.2 from there. However now when I reboot into recovery I get the custom cwm that comes with cfroot 4. If I pull the battery in the custom cwm when I put the battery back in I get cwm 4.0.0.2.
Does anyone know how I can remove the custom cwm or both and then flash cwm 4.0.0.2?
Thanks in advance.
Can nobody help with this?
Yes, in the menu move to reboot using volume keys and hit home
Failing that, odin a stock rom to recover

I flashed my stock kernel but restarting into recovery from rom manager still goes to the custom cwm.
In the original Galaxy S, Samsung bundle the kernel & the recovery in the zImage file in the stock firmware so that might be the case here too. Download the original from samfirmware.com, remove everything from the tar file except zImage and flash the tar as PDA through Odin
Can you not just fake-flash the CWM 4.0.0.2 recovery through the custom CWM (through an update.zip or whatever) as that is what ROM Manager does anyway

I odin'd Lightening rom 1.4 and now it seems im just left with the real CWM. yey!
Thanks for all your help.

What is 'ops file'?
Just use odin 1.85 I think. Put the kernel tar file at pda
Sent from my GT-I9100G using XDA
make sure you are rooted first
1 ) download HC-Ktool from market
2) choose and download one of this kernel
Lucifr Kernel 1.6uv
Superatmos Kernel v3.3
3) open ktool and press dump current kernel (incase anything happen)
4) connect ur phone to PC and backup ur original zimage file in ur internal sdcard ( phone)
5) copy the extracted zimage ( lucifr or superatmos ) to internal sdcard
6) open ktool and press flash kernel from sdcard/zimage
7) reboot and enjoy
or
you can flash it using Odin 1.85..select your kernel file at PDA and leave all the setting..press start..phone auto reboot then enjoy

Im rooted on 4.1.2 I9300XXELLA and I want to overclock but I need a kernel, does anyone know what will work? Please post link, this is my first time rooting.
There is only one best kernel for our S3

Okay will this brick or bugger up my phone?

The kernel will is safe to use, but when flashing there is always a chance of bricking, just to make sure you get the right one here is the link to the kernel you need.
http://d-h.st/users/siyah/s3
The one that has CWM in the name is a zip file to flash in recovery mode, go to install zip from sd card, then choose zip from sd card and browse to the folder you saved it in and select the zip and scroll to yes then reboot.
The .tar file is to flash in Odin, add the file to PDA, enter download mode and connect the phone to the pc via usb, then click start sit back and your phone will reboot automatically.
Make sure repartition is NOT checked in Odin.
To check the kernel go to settings, about device and check kernel version.
Well I have already rooted in odin so do I just download this kernel on my phone, the go to recovery mode and apply the kernel and thats it? Or have I got to do more than just rooting and aplyimg the kernel?

Did you root using CF Root or CF auto root? Auto root doesn't use clockworkmod, if you used auto root you will need to use the .tar or flash clockwork mod via rom manager (available in the play store.)
Appart from that just install the kernel.
I used cf auto root in odin, could you write down the steps I will need to go through to apply this kernel so I can overclock, im fairly new to this so I get confused very easily lol

Does it increase binary counter ?
Could you explain it step by step?
@thekoRngear how did you install the kernel? Did you root with cf auto?

Through CWM, this will not increase your binary counter however in the latest bootloader booting to custom recover sets it to 1.
Download the .zip file and save it to your internal sd card (less chance of failure)
Download rom manager from the play store
Open rom manager and select "flash clockworkmod recovery"
Confirm your phone model
Follow any other on screen instructions
Then when it's flashed switch your phone off
Hold Vol up, home and power button to boot to recovery
Select install zip from sd card
Select choose zip from sd (something similar)
Select the zip file, then scroll to "yes"
Wait for it to flash and reboot
Through Odin (this will increase your binary counter.)
Download the .tar version
Open Odin
Click the PDA button
Select the .tar file you downloaded
Put your phone in download mode (Vol down, home and power)
Connect your phone to your PC
Ensure repartition is NOT selected
Click start and wait for the phone to reboot
Then check the kernel version in settings, about device.

Do I have to do both of these or just one?
Sorry I post so much, as its my first time rooting im just worried about messing up my phone, so I have rooted my 4.1.2 and to apply this kernel is it best to do it through mobile odin, pc odin or through recovery on my phone?
Another question is that when you say internal sd, is that the normal memory inside the phone or a micro sd card?
I downloaded the CWM Zip file and flashed via CWM recovery 6.0.2.7 touch.
Internal sd means normal memory inside the phone.
Okay so ive downloaded the siyah 1.8.6 zip, and ive also downloaded rom manager, should I just go straight into rom manager and apply this kernel or is there something else I have to do?
Also what is a binary and flash count.
Im new to this so im learning
Also where it says 'flash clockworkmod recovery' I have to have clockworkmod installed, how do I know if I have it or not?

You don't need clockworkmod intalled to flash it, just tap flash clockworkmod and it should flash it.
Then boot to recovery to install the siyah zip file.
The flash counter (or binary counter) is a value in the bootloader that changes whenever something unofficial is flashed through Odin whether it's root, rom, recovery, kernel anything. Samsung have used it for awhile to stop people who have used custom firmware just flashing a stock rom then getting a warranty service, There are however ways to reset the flash counter to claim a warranty service if needed.
Okay I will give this a go thank you, when I downloaded the siyah im not sure where it would have went to, where would be the normal place it would have downloaded to?

If you downloaded it on your phone's browser it will be in /sdcard/Download, if you downloaded it on a PC browser it will either have gone where you put it, or into user\Downloads.
I want to go back to stock rom. So I downloaded a zip file of the firmware.
Please give me the detailed steps to flash the rom without bricking it. My externel sdcard is unable to mount in CWM.
Any kind of help will be much appreciated.
thank you.
First download and install odin from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738841
1. If it is in zip extract it using 7zip,winrar.....
2. Open Odin3 (Run As Administrator).
3.Shut down your phone than put your device in download mode. To do so, press Vol-Down And Home And Power Button all together and when it vibrates release Power (It might not work in first time,so try it three four time before posting again)
Button. You should have a triangle with an android janitor while it's saying downloading.
4. You should see a blue rectangle with COM:xx and saying Added. It means that your device is ready to be flashed!
5. Go into the PDA section and select your .tar file.
6. Dont check any option (F.reset time and Auto reboot are checked by default if not than check them).
7. Now click Start.
8. When it's finished, it should say that it's done with a green box and your device should reboot by itself
Good luck:good:
Thanks for your concern but i don't have the .tar file so i'm unable to flash it via ODIN. Can you give me the instruction to flash .zip file through CWM recovery. And what should i do if my external sd is unable to mount?

To flash through CWM you dont need external SD card. You can just copy the file in to Internal SD and flash it.
And for installing stock firmware, you cant just simply do it via CWM, you have to go for Odin only.
For this you need to download your original firmware from sammobile or in xda forums you can find it. Take a research, the above post will help.
