Hoping I'm just being blind, but where's CWM??? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

OK, I'm hoping a late night and blindness are just setting in or that I'm just being dumb but...
I don't see a thread for CWM or any info on where/how to get CWM and get it installed on the Player 5.0.
Searching CWM was mostly useless, as it's in every other post. Searching recovery was similarly fruitless.
Any help?

Install a custom kernal, and you'll get cwm.

It depends on which method you want to run. You can use the rootzwiki leak which is a tar file used in Odin. Or you can use dagr8's CWM flashable zip.
Let me know which one you want to use and I'll give you further directions. (Odin method would be easier for newbs)

If you know how to use CWM I'd recommend using that one. I believe if you flash the rootzwiki one you will lose root and CWM.

I have done a nandroid and when you say flash i guess you mean load the exe through odin, if so it comes back as failed all the time, do i have to try a diff com or something.

I would suggest maybe starting with the collective First flight ics it just has fewer steps at this point. What you want to do is download the rom to your sd card and follow the instructions on wiping.
If you need more help feel free to pm me.

1. Back Up your Stuff.
2. Wipe Data/ Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache
4. Flash .zip in recovery
5. Allow full first boot, reboot

Yeah as long as its a zip file. Tar will be flashed through Odin. Img through adb. Backups don't translate well between some recoveries though, just a heads up.

You have already asked this question in the sudden death thread and got an in depth answer.
Here, I've copied and pasted it again for you

Reply:
CWM is a recovery. PhilZ is a recovery that's based on CWM. So it's capable of pretty much everything CWM is, and more. Hence your backups should be restored without any trouble, as long as the CWM version PhilZ is based on can do it. You have one /recovery partition. You either install CWM or PhilZ or TWRP or whatevertheeff else (this is in response to "Do I still need CWM?").
PS: Please clean up your posts, you're almost polluting the thread!
Why are you asking it again? And not only that but making a new thread for it!
Surely the best place to ask is actually in the PhilZ recovery thread.........once.

You will need to read and learn before you act. This phone is configured differently than what you are accustomed to, judging from your statement above. You won't install recovery separately on this phone, since it is built into the kernel, for instance. Most roms have flashing instructions in the OP.
Ok. Im rooted... I unlcoked it for Tmobile. and its now on 2.3.4. When i go to recovery it juts says android recovery. Im not sure if its Clockwork mod, because i havent used clockwork since the days of the Moto backflip. SO how would i go about getting Clockworkmod and then installing Slimbean.

The clear answer has already been given to you. Search for username creepyncrawly, read all the threads linked in his signature. You need to be patient, read and research for several days before attempting to flash anything. It was reckless and foolish to root before doing so.
