To install the custom recovery ClockworkMod, the process simple and immediate that in recent periods seems to be has become a fashion. The method is to insert the file CMW.zip (containing the recovery ClockWorkMod) in SD, then launch it from original recovery. In this way, we have temporarily installed the recovery Clockworkmod without flasharla with Odin or the like and we can easily install root permissions or other without changing the recovery stocks. ( recovery temporary )...This process, however, seems to be not recommended for all terminals Samsung because it is quite harmful in most cases: temporarily installing the recovery (contained in this file CMW.ZIP ) on particular types of kernel Ice Cream Sandwich, you may incur in a total block of the device.

Thanks a lot! Didn't find it for the sgs3 international. I did it on my sgs2 and it's a great way to root your device and make nandroid backups without flashing the cf kernel But how do you make an cwm.zip out of the IMG or tar file? As far as I know you can't open tar files in stock recovery but only in Odin? :/

Sadly there are differences in partition layouts between S2 and S3. S2 allows you to flash temporary (fake) recovery because recovery is on the same partition with kernel. Thats why on S2 you must flash kernel with implemented cwm to have 'static' clockworkmod after reboot. Flashing only cwm is temporary until reboot.
S3 have separate space dedicated for recovery (kernel independent).

I don't know much about US versions bro, but i doubt that this is the same firmware as on S2. There are hardware differences between those models.
Maybe partition layout is similar.

Hi there; long time lurker, first time poster.
I've recently been trying to flash the kernel on my device using the CF-Root kernel. My kernel version is 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKK2-CL726411, so I downloaded the corresponding rooted kernel file "KK2", extracted, and flashed using Odin (with no errors; green light with PASS displays).
Now, I'm led to believe that in doing so, busybox and superuser will also be installed. However, I cannot seem to find them in the applications list. I also cannot run apps like Titanium Backup, which require root access.
Each time I boot/reboot my phone, the yellow triangle does display. So what am I missing? I have also tried using the Superoneclick method, but after rebooting, I still don't seem to have root access.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Try again. Ensure no KIES processes are running (including process in PC Task Manager)
Make sure you are following Chainfire's instructions exactly. )
Flash CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar (from the attached zip) as PDA in ODIN, without repartition. Done
Edit: You will not see busybox, but should see Superuser

Thanks for the quick reply. I had retried it twice before, but decided to try it again once more. I made sure no KIES related processes were running.
I attached a screenshot of my Odin after flashing. I have followed Chainfire's thread word-for-word. =S
Any other suggestions as to what i should try next?
Thanks!
Have you tried a different kernel?
You could try flashing Siyah kernel v2.6.8 .tar with Odin: http://www.gokhanmoral.com/gm/2012/01/21/siyahkernel-v2-6-8/

If you have managed to get CWM Recovery installed, but for some reason still don't have (or lost) root access;
Download the attached SuperUser.zip (don't extract)
Save to internal sdcard (remember what directory, if any)
Boot into CWM Recovery (Power off phone -> Vol Up + Home + Power). Navigate (depending on which CWM version) vol up/dn, maybe power to back or select, home to select. Try menu soft key for up & back button back)
Navigate to Install zip from sdcard / internal sdcard............ / SuperUser.zip
Flash & reboot

Hmmm.. was I flash this in the exact same way as I did with the CF-Root? It's now giving me a boot loop.
Once I get the phone back up and running, I'll retry this flashing with this kernel.

Thanks for the reply! I'll give this a try if reflashing the kernel doesn't work.
Maybe factory reset, wipe cache and advanced / dalvik in recovery before flashing.

Okay, I've gotten rid of the boot loop. I've been trying to figure out why I couldn't get something so simple to work, but I've finally found the answer.
I changed my usb connection from the front header to the rear i/o port, and retried the kernel flash. Problem solved.
These past two days have been so frustrating haha. Thanks so much for your help guys!
I am no longer supporting this version of CF-Root. I have personally moved away from permanent custom recoveries. I will still be providing roots by way of CF-Auto-Root (click). The downloads in this thread will remain available, I just won't be updating them.
.
.
.
.
.
If you just want to get your device rooted ASAP, see this thread instead: CF-Root. It includes this recovery in it's installation, and automatically installs root. This thread is for the recovery only.
Check your device model ! Settings -> About device -> Model number. This stuff is made for the GT-I9300 and GT-I9300T, if your model number has a suffix, it may not work, or if it is a totally different model, it will not work (may even brick) !
Not compatible with ROM Manager ! Use the CWM Manager provided instead.
Here's my port of CWM 5.5.0.4 to the SGS3. There's a second version number in the thread title, as I think there will be multiple versions.
As is the case with every SGS release (it happened with the SGS1 and the SGS2, and now again with the SGS3), CWM source isn't built to correctly deal with our setup (internal storage vs sdcard). I had to make a number of changes to the source to get it working correctly. From my tests, it all seems to work, but it's quite possible I missed something (report issues).
(I have tested backup/restore to both internal and external storage, wipes, installing zips from both internal and external, etc, all works as I expect it to)
Aside from the base fixes, there is currently nothing fancy about this build of CWM. I'm not sure if the SGS3 suffers from the brick bug (that SGS2 and Note have), but I patched out the relevant code to be sure (I think). Backups are rather big, system alone is about a GB.
I'll do more some other day!
Instructions - Short
Extract the attached CF-SGS3-CWM-vX.X-vY.Y zip file, to get the tar file you can flash in Odin as PDA.
Instructions - Long
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached Odin3-vX.X.zip file
- Unzip the attached CF-SGS3-CWM-vX.X-vY.Y.zip file
- If you end up with a recovery.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar file - don't extract that one
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-SGS3-CWM-vX.X-vY.Y.tar
- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold volume-down + home + power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button)
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
- Click the Start button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
New to Samsung? Unfamiliar with Odin? Think all the above is a hassle? Get used to it. It's very simple, and us Samsung folk use Odin (or Mobile ODIN ) for everything! It's so very very convenient once you get used to it.
Navigation
In recovery, use the volume buttons to move up/down, power or home button to select, and back to go back.
Manually rooting
Note: if you're just flashing CWM to root, it is easiest to follow this thread instead: CF-Root. It includes this recovery in it's installation, and automatically installs root.
Applying root once you have this recovery installed is easy.
- Go to the SuperSU thread and download the CWM-SuperSU-...zip file attached to the first post
- Put the zip file on your sdcard (either internal storage or external sdcard will do)
- Put your phone in recovery mode (turn off phone, then hold volume-up + home + power to boot - release power after one second) - Alternatively, use the "adb reboot recovery" command
- Select "install zip from sdcard"
- Select "choose zip from sdcard" or "choose zip from internal sdcard" (depending on where you put the zip)
- Select the CWM-SuperSU-...zip file
- Done !
Root in ADB
If you root through recovery and are not running a custom kernel, chances are that ADB does not have root when Android is booted. You can enable root in ADB even on stock kernels by using the adbd Insecure app. This does require the device to be rooted!
When flashing a new firmware ...
... you probably want to keep recovery. Most stock firmwares include the stock recovery, so if you flash those with Odin this recovery will be overwritten. Alternatively, if you are using Mobile ODIN to flash, first open the firmware files you want to flash using the "Open file ..." entry (sometimes several times), then select the "Recovery" entry and press the "Clear" button in the popup. This way, recovery will not be overwritten.
CWM Manager
Also attached is CWM Manager, a tool I wrote to manage my CWM kernels and recoveries. Download the APK to your device and open it to install. You may need to go to Settings -> Security -> Device Administration first and enable Unknown sources.
Note that v1.1 or newer of my CWM build is required to use CWM Manager.
Flash counter
To reset the flash counter to 0, see the Triangle Away thread.
OTA's
Since v1.5, flashing OTA updates is supported directly using this recovery. You should however be aware that said OTA will most likely re-install stock recovery and remove this one. Furthermore, it may keep doing so every time you boot. CF-Root v6.3 (and newer) will try to disable this, it is advised you flash that. Just reflashing this CWM recovery will likely not help.

Recovery installed successfully.
But when I run ROM Manager, it says that I don't have any CWM installed. For example, if I choose the option "Copy current ROM", it issues the following message: "You must have ClockworkMod Recovery installed before continuing!. Install the recovery through ROM Manager first."
ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 6.0.3.2 for Samsung Galaxy S3 *GSM* ONLY
This is the latest Touch Version from the ClockworkMod Site. I just packed it into a tar file so it can be flashed via Odin or Mobile Odin. Do not attempt to flash this image to the Snapdragon variant as it will not work.
DOWNLOAD LINK TO CWM 6.0.3.2 TOUCH
NOTE: CWM has the ability to 'choose backup format' to either the new .dup method with the blobs folder or the original .tar method where everything is in the date/time stamped folder. You can now ALSO 'create image zip' file from a NAND backup. Be patient with the zip backup option as it does take a while to create the zip (to be expected from a 1GB+ backup). Thank you for this addition koush it makes recovery alot more complete
QUESTION: Why are the backups size soo small now compared to the previous cwm backups?
ANSWER: Basically on the new cwm all the data is stored in a blobs folder in the clockworkmod folder. The backups folder now doesnt hold the actual data and instead the system and data files contain links to the files in the blobs folder (with the hash of the file as its filename). When you perform another backup only the changes have to be added so it performs incremental backups instead of full backups everytime. You can still flash different roms and back them up as any new data is stored in the blobs folder with the links in the backup folder. Several backups can share the same blobs file so over several backups the total file size of all the backups will be much much smaller. When you delete a backup via cwm you can then free space of the blob files that are no longer needed to keep everything tidy and make sure that no files are stored that arent referenced to any backup. If you don't free the space then any unused files will automatically be deleted when the next backup is performed.

How to Install ClockworkMod Touch
1. Download the attached tar file at the bottom of this post. DO NOT EXTRACT THIS FILE! If you end up with a recovery.img file then smack yourself and start again.
2. Download Odin (windows only) at the bottom if you don't already have it and unzip it to a folder on your PC
3. Reboot into Download Mode: Power off your device, Hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME DOWN' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 2 seconds until a WARNING! Screen appears. Press the 'VOLUME UP' button to enter Download Mode.

NOTE: When Odin opens you should see that the first box at the top under ID:COM should turn blue and 'Added' should appear in the message box in Odin.
6. Make sure 'Auto Reboot' and 'F.Reset Time' are ticked in Odin and nothing else.
7. Click on the 'PDA' button in Odin and browse to the recovery-cwmtouch-6.0.3.2-GTI9300.tar file that you downloaded.
8. Click on 'Start' to flash CWM to your phone.
NOTE: You can see whats happening in the message box in Odin. When the flash completes you should see 'RESET' in the top left the box and your phone will reboot.
9. You now have CWM Touch Recovery permanently flashed
How to Access ClockworkMod Touch
1. Unplug the USB cable.
2. Shut down the phone.
3. Hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME UP' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 5 seconds to enter Recovery Mode.
Stock Recovery being reflashed after a reboot?
There is an auto recovery restore system on stock roms that will reflash the Stock Recovery on a Stock Rom. If the restore files are renamed then CWM Recovery should not be overwritten after a reboot.
You need to be rooted and then delete or rename the following files:
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can then flash recovery without it being overwritten.
You can also do all this through the Galaxy S3 ToolKit

Looking at some screenshots that I googled, it's just the regular recovery with the lines spaced out a bit more to be finger-friendly.
What we really need for the SGSIII is 4EXT Touch Recovery, but the dev only seems to support HTC devices.

Sorry but what are you talking about exactly? The Recovery in the first post is the CWM Touch Recovery with touch screen compatability. Im sure TWRP will support SGS3 eventually if you want a more icon based Recovery.

have you tried it buddy? The cwm?
Doesn't work or is the same CWM we already have.
I flashed it over the exiting CWM and it looks the same, certainly is not touch activated.
Does this method still show the 2 red lines of code at the top when booting?

I'm having an absurd issue with my phone and really would like some expert advice.
I just bought my phone (GT-I9205). Is still all stock. I am trying to install CWM Recovery with ODIN but seems nothing gets flashed into the phone except that I am stuck with the stock Recovery.
USB Drivers correctly installed on my laptop and the flash process seems successful under ODIN (..tar file upload to phone goes smooth and and then phone successfully resets). But when I go back to Recovery mode, actually, nothing was flashed. Same old stock recovery screen. What the hell? Am I doing something wrong in ODIN settings (CWM tar file flashed as PDA and everything else as default), or is my phone crazy?.. I really have no idea whats going on. In fact Ive tried flashing other versions of CWM and same thing happens.
And my stock recovery screen itself has issues problems.. when entering the recovery mode it briefly displays the word ERROR and I get a sad Android guy with a RED explanation mark with the wording NO COMMAND. Totally stuck. I have positively no idea whats going on. Years flashing phones and doing all sorts of things, nothing like this before..
My phone was an open box.. maybe someone did something to it and totally messed it up.. no clue..
please is this valid for the 9205 lte? thankes
pleas delete
I tried this and it worked on the bell version model I527M
The red line when booting will gone if you flash back your kernel. ..stock kernal...
The rooting kernal is to provide su update...

I... seem to have an issue. I can't seem to find the USB Debugging mode on my GT-i9200... I literally don't have the option. Or... I'm going crazy.
1. Goto Settings -> About Phone.
2. Goto “Build Number” at the end of the Scroll list.
3. Tap on “Build Number” repeatedly (7 times). On your third tap you should see message indicating that you only have 4 more taps to go to ‘become a developer’.
4. Continue: 4 more taps.
5. Hooray, you are now a ‘Developer’, go back to the Setting page.
6. You should see Developer Option menu item in your setting list now.
7. Open Developer Options and check USB debugging > Ok

I actually ended up not needing it, but it's nice to see I wasn't going insane for the time I spent looking for it... Thanks again.

Not sure on this but did you root your phone since the update..if not try kingoroot and then try flashing the recovery again.

On my first firmware I9200 XSE XXUMAEE, I have rooted the device using latest i9200-cwm-recovery(201362118259).tar and superSU 1.51 and works fine, then I reinstall ( flash ) the firmware using the original firmware from sammobile XSE XXUMAEE to restore back everything to receive OTA into XSE XXUBMJ4, when UBMJ4 successfully updated my I9200 I tried to install i9200-cwm-recovery(201362118259).tar and flashed successfully via odin, and I used the usual way to boot into CWM but cannot run and the device run the stock recovery. I've tried last TWRP 2.0.3 and still the same.There is no other way and I flash original I9200 XSE XXUMAEE ( Downgrade ) and clean the device using CWM ( format /system ) then flash again I9200 XXUMAEE. Now I'm still using XXUMAEE and rooted, waiting for the new CWM. This is all my experience. at CWM last log all my i9200 system back to XXUMAEE except bootloader still remain XXUBMJ4.
By the way what is kingoroot??? never heard that.

Guys, When I tried XXUBMJ4 on my I9200, it run like android 4.3 have move to sd feature and everything new and consume less RAM. Can't hardly wait for new CWM.
Thanks for the experts who create this CWM.
Love CWM more than TWRP.
I'm following step by step process to root my gt-s5310 using ODIN 3.07. Started from download mode and connect to the PC is no problem at all. ODIN finished with the GREEN PASS. When I tried to open recovery mode, only android recovery mode is open(but malfunctioning, going no where when I press the home button) that recovery mode also don't has "install zip from sd card" option.
My android version is 4.1.2 . Baseband version S5310DXAME2. Kernel version 3.0.15-1521875 [email protected]#1
Please help me to solve the issue. Attached is the recovery mode picture

After the successful flash of the CWM file in Odin, do you let it auto reboot? Many Samsung phones have a built in script that checks to see if the recovery partition has been modified and then reapplies the factory recovery file back to it. Try this: Have the phone in hand with fingers on button combo for recovery (most Samsung phones with physical home buttons are typically Home + Volume Up along with Power, but you won't need to do the ) and when it reboots, hit the combo for recovery and it should boot to CWM, then you'll be able to do a nandroid backup and install the stuff you want. If you want to keep the stock rom and CWM recovery, you'll have to get root access and remove the script.
