How do you suppose I do that?
Simple language please..I'm new

Glad you managed to get back. By the way, you can also go flash a new recovery by flashing it through the custom recovery you already have.
E.g. Flash CWM (ZIP) via TWRP.

Flashing through CWM help!! (solved)

Hi there, I just started flashing a couple months ago and all is great. When I first started flashing I used cwm to flash a ROM. I would clear data then clear cache then afterwards flash the ROM and would work flawlessly.
Now as I try to do that (trying to flash a brand new ROM), Everytime I try to cleardata or cache on cwm my phone would freeze there, therefore I couldn't properly set up my phone for a new ROM.
Any ideas or solution I can do to fix this? Greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Would I lose my ROM backups if I redo my cwm?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
You will not lose anything. Unless you fubar the phone some how.
Yea I had the same issue about a month ago. The only thing that worked for me was using Odin to put me back to stock gingerbread, re flash cwm and root. Since then I've been able to flash and it fixed the cache hang up in cwm.

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.

[Q] Can' flash CWM or custom ROM

Hi all,
I realize this issue must have been asked before but I couldn't find the fix through the forum.
I'm trying to flash my Galaxys S3 (I9300 International Version) but nothing seems to work.
I go into recovery and try to unzip the latest CWM (here) but all I get is a 'signature verification failed'.
I try to install CWM recovery through the app but it says 'an error occured while flashing your recovery'.
When I try to flash this ROM (here), CM11, from recovery, after a full factory reset I get 'failed to verify whole-file signature' & 'signature verification failed'.
So that leaves me stuck at the beginning ...
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

I am, but I can't get into CMW recovery either, not through the app.
I just get an error when it reaches a 100%.
Should I buy the touch version from the store?

U cannot flash tat zip file from the link u posted first with stock recovery. Tat must be flashed from cwm recovery. Use ROM manager from play store. Then flash the recovery zip file then the rom.

You need to flash CWM through Odin in order to flash other stuff (.zip file to root, etc.). You can dig up guides on the internet.

no need for root. download new recovery as an zip (Philz is an good choice, find his tread here on xda) and reboot into recovery. Flash new recovery zip just like any other zip. Reboot and voila... all done
