I installed a rom recently on my s3 international and have a zip of the stock rom. Everytime that I try to reflash it via cwm it says installation aborted. Im running on remix ressuructon 3.1.4 though if that helps. I have access to a mac and windows.

Well what he said... try flashing the stock from through Odin as described in the howto's.
Then afterwards you could try applying your zip.

Sounds like you need to extract from the zip and flash with Odin

Just to clarify......you are trying to flash the stock Rom? And where did you get this stock .zip from?
hi I have additional question. I found a crack!!! on "aluminium finished" on the right side of SGS3. Im ultra ROM flasher, so I know the ROM flashing basics. The problem is how to return the phone to the factory ROM and the samsung official service wont reralise that I flashed UNofficial ROMs. Instead of SGS2 I have no yellow exclamation when bootingup.

Hey everyone, ive searched all over and havent been able to find a solution.
I've followed the instructions on how to root using CF-ROOT (odin) and successfully rooted and booted into cwm and installed Resurection remix 1.0.. Everything works great, except when i try to reboot and go back into CWM i get android system recovery <3e> and not cwm.
The only way to recover is to install cwm or cfroot from odin again and reinstall the rom.
Any idea what i'm doing wrong? thanks
Don't know, try to change rom and see if it happens again... I'm on v3rtr3ma and is really good.. Tried also wanamlite 9.9..

That reads as the rom you are using has no built in CWM recovery .
Logic says ask the rom builder or in his post .

Like JJEgan says, the ROM then sound like it comes with its own kernel, that DOESN'T have CWM recovery, but standard Android recovery. ROMs come with their own kernels, so every time you flash kernel first, then ROM, you are replacing the CF-root kernel, thus losing CWM recovery.
Just re flash the CF-root kernel to get it back after you flash the ROM. There is no need to flash the ROM again after you flash the kernel.
Try installing Rom Manager and make a recovery once installed (top item in rom manager)

correct me if im wrong.
you're REINSTALLING the rom, after you flash CF-ROOT? if you reinstall the rom, then cwm will be deleted.
You can use this temporary signed CWM zip.In recovery, choose apply update from storage and flash the zip and you get CWM. When you reboot, it will be gone.
This was taken from Here
You better take a look here for further information.

If he's installing CF-root, CWM and ROM Manager tend not to play nice together.
Look in the Resurection Remix OP!
After you installed Resurection Remix let it boot and flash CWM-zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854. That should give you 2nd recovery.

NOTE: İF YOU WANT FLASH SOMETHİNG FROM CWM RECOVERY FİRST YOU MUST İNSTALL CWM.ZİP FROM STOCK RECOVERY MOD(APPLY UPDATE FROM EXTERNAL STORAGE AND CHOOSE CWM.ZİP AND İNSTALL)

But the moment you flash CWM.ZIP, recovery mode is reloaded and you can flash anything...

LOL, indeed, reading the first post of the ROM thread is a good idea too.
OP, as gee2012 notes, there is a NOTE in the Resurrection Remix thread in all caps, right under the "Rom Installation (please don`t miss any step! )" section.
On an unrelated note: gee2012, you of Chinese descent?
EDIT: Whoops! didn't see jakezpeenz's post. Sorry, not meaning to repeat what a bunch of other people already said.
I can confirm
hi
I can confirm that after installing ICS remix you need to flash the cwm tar thru Odin after you install ICS to get CWM
I had to do it yesterday
Hi Mates - i need help.
I just rooted my Galaxy S3 (i9300) and after it restarted, all i can see is just pure black screen.
- Prior to Rooting, here's my phone status:
Official Stock 4.1.2 Official Firmware
Never been rooted prior to this incident
What i used:
Odin 1.85
CF-Insecure-SGS3_XX_NEE_ALE8-v1.2
Can someone please help me?
Sometimes it doesn t get rooted. Check if you can boot into recovery or not by using button combo.

You cannot install CWM recovery unless you root your phone. . Did you try going to recovery using button combo?? Sometimes, if roots after you manually go into recovery.
If not done, download Galaxy S3 unified toolkit and root using that.

If the cf root procedure was successful I wouldn't worry about installing a diff recovery just yet, lets get the phone booting 1st. Download a custom rom and get it moved onto your external sd card, Boot into recovery(from power off, press volume up, home button and power), make sure its custom and not default. Then install the custom rom zip and reboot it should hopefully fully reboot. then look into installing a newer custom recovery.

no..! you can flash CWM recovery even though the phone is not rooted! for sure! after flashing CWM recovery we can root the phone by flashing superuser.zip! i've done this many times!

If the recovery has been updated to the custom CWM recovery then yes you could flash a rom which will come with root and super user. But it must be the custom recovery if your still on the stock recovery u couldn't flash a custom rom.

Ohk, is the recovery stock recovery or custom (CWM) recovery. Anyways, try to wipe data and cache and boot. If not successful, install a custom ROM. But make sure the recovery is CWM recovery.

yes, saw it. its a custom rom. tried wipe data / cache but didn't work. will try to install custom rom sentinel now.
was able to install the custom rom but kept on rebooting after few minutes. it already happened thrice now.
anything i am missing?
It could be the insecure kernel you used earlier is making it unstable, probably if the custom rom doesn't install a kernel. Only thing I can think of is install an official Samsung g3 rom which should repair all the partitions that might of been damaged or corrupted, use it for a while to make sure no reboots. Then go through root and install of custom rom again. In theory creating a good foundation to install a custom rom on.
Just out of curiosity did u download an official Samsung rom before starting to flash in case u need to send it away or sell it on? If not what network/country are u using? Is the phone locked to the network or unlocked?
Edit:- I never used a kernel flash to root my phone just used cf root 6.4 to get root and custom recovery cwm. I only changed my recovery this weekend to Phil touch.

While selecting apply update from SD card and selecting the .zip file to update, the installation doesn't start. It says installation aborted automatically.
I unrooted the phone and then tried again but got the same error.

Just Curious, after installing CWM, how are you flashing?
I tried updating Cyanogenmod but needed the new gapps, but unfortunately I installed the wrong one. Now I have no way to access my phone as I can only see "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped". On top of that, whenever I try to boot into recovery to install the correct gapps, I am greeted by a blank screen. I have tried reinstalling the recovery with Odin and I am getting the same thing. Any help?
