I said Philz but you cannot even be bothered to read the instructions in the thread .
Odin packages instructions Odin Files posted on the first page also .
Download links
Last version can be found here:

Odin packages instructions
They come in the form of .tar.md5 file
boot into download mode
start odin3 and configure it as in picture below
connect phone in download mode to PC via USB
press start to flash the tar.md5 package
normally, phone should auto-reboot into recovery.
If it reboots into android and your recovery remains stock, repeat above steps and untick "autoreboot" in odin. Once flash is done, keep pressing power button + home + vol up until it reboots (always will go to recovery)
when in recovery, if you choose option "reboot system now" and you get "yes - disable flash recovery", select that option to avoid stock recovery overwriting cwm
I really really suggest you avoid rooting or flashing anything at all until you can be bothered to read the basic faqs and guides .
YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

hi friends
i have installed rootbox-jb-i9100-v2.9.zip on my samsung s2
i did it via cwm recovery version 6.0.6(i hope the version is correct)
i have kernel-cm-10-20120801-19100-signed.zip and when i try to click on pda in odin i dont see this file
i have already used cwm 6 to flash cwm 10 by putting it onto sdcard and erasing cache data and dalveick partition etc
moreover the yellow triangle is also not dissappearing
i put the phone on download mode
fire up odin
click pda and then cant see this file..
please suggest
I suggest you stop opening duplicate threads about the same thing.
Now you were told in other thread odin doesnt use .zip files,it likes .tar files.
So visit the thread of the rom you want,read the install guide,follow the instructions.
Read the rules and basic guides on here otherwise youll end up a failure.......lol

Hello, I read the stickies about rooting and backing up but I am unsure which method to use. I have a Galaxy S3 that I never touched as far as rooting goes and I just want to install cyanogen mod first and try that out. The thing is the stickies mention various ways to root and I was just looking for one that is most suited for my current needs. Also, what custom recovery should I install?
Thanks
Read general > sticky roll-up thread > understanding the basics before rooting. It answers all your questions. It supplies only ONE recommended method

Ok I have rooted my phone with Odin, backed up my esf along with sms and other stuff I need, and installed TWRP. The thing is when I go to cyanogenmod download their instructions are for CWM recovery and I'm supposed to download the Android SDK to transfer the ROM on my phone? How do I install it with TWRP?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32664054 this thread says to just move it like that in my root.

Hello!
I have an i9100 that was rooted but collapsed with a custom rom.
I wanted to reflash the stock rom via Odin (XXLSJ). It worked but I was stuck with a boot loop.
I flashed a matching Philz recovery cwm6-xxlsj-oxx.4.31 via Odin but I cannot access it by pressing volume up + home + power button.
As a matter of fact I tried to flash other cwm versions and non of them would start by using the buttons...
I spent a lot of time looking for answer but haven't found any. I also tried to flash other custom roms via Odin but none of these work.
I would appreciate help a lot! I rooted some phones already but a detailed instruction would be preferable.
Thanks once again!
Find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' guide stickied in the General section. Download the 3 part stock firmware linked in the thread, flash with Odin (this will wipe your phone). If you have problems with the flash, do the stuff suggested in the thread until you get a successful one. This will give you a 'clean slate'.
From there, you can re-root your thread & flash a custom rom/whatever. How ? Search. 'How to root' has been asked/answered thousands of times here over the past two years; one hint I'm giving you: Thread stickied near top of Q&A has simple root method (others in guides/tutorials stickied near top of General section). So far as flashing a given rom is concerned, flashing instructions are always on the first page of the thread devoted to the rom, and are clear/concise 99.9% of the time.
Best bit of advice I can give you - don't do anything to your phone until you understand what you're doing. Not doing so leads to busted phones. Take your time.

Thank you for the answer. However, I tried those.
I don't have any problem with the flashing of that ROM, it just wouldn't start. It is boot-looping.
I can flash the Siyah kernel via Odin, but I cannot enter CWM after that so I cannot perform that procedure.
Try this
Take out battery,hold vol up + home + power and put the battery back without releasing the buttons.

So now I am back on XXKH3. It would not start but I managed to root it like this:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-root-xxkh3-firmware-on-galaxy-s2-i9100-guide/
Now there is CWM but it says it cannot mount cache or sd card or nothing.
What can I do?
what are you trying to do?
You can try to format the internal sd card with a pc while booted to cwm.Backup all files important to you before formatting!
connect to a pc,in cwm mount usb storage and format.

So, now I have Dorimanx recovery. I can access it occasionnally.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2058683&highlight=pit
I checked the memory but it is okay.
I tried to format the internal memory but I could not do that nor via pc, neither via CWM.
That should be the solution I guess because anytime I want to install a new custom rom via CWM, there is an error message.
Any suggestion for this?
I would want to install any custom rom and use my phone. That is the goal.
So, I get these messages:
can't copy meta-inf/com/google/android/update-binary
I wanted to run CWM-SuperSU-v0.99 but I get the same that 'Read-only file system'.
What now?
copy the rom you want to flash to the external sd card and try to flash.
Also if that fails,try booting without external sd,maybe it's causing problems.

I figured I should try to reflash a stock rom, then DorimanX 8.43, then CWM-SuperSU and then flash a new rom.
I hope this will work because my inetrnal memory cannot be accessed from the mount USB storage mode in CWM

You don't need to flash cwm supersu because dorimanx kernel is already pre-rooted.
I knew I'll break it one day so no big surprise here.
Let me start from the beginning. I was testing a new ROM (C-ROM to be exact) but i didn't like it's using TWRP (I hate this thing, i'm used to CWM), so I tried installing CWM by using ROM Manager so I can restore from my Nandroid backup. Despite the "success" message of ROM Manager - the phone kept booting into TWRP recovery so i googled a "flashable cwm zip" and found this: CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5 for Galaxy S2 GT-i9100 ZIP
I flashed the above zip using TWRP (success message followed) but when i rebooted the phone - NOTHING came up. I thought myself i bricked it but i managed to go to download mode.
Where do i go from here? I guess i'll have to use PC Odin from here but i don't know what to do exactly (i'm not power user).
C'mon...You don't know how to flash a rom with Odin ? Not like it's a great secret, you don't need to be a 'power user', this info is easily found by searching (or even looking in the thread stickied near the top of Q&A titled 'Flash stock firmware').
Get a stock rom from Samfirmware, flash it with instructions in that thread. Problems with Odin flash ? Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General has all the info you need to get a successful flash.
Edit - Also, it was Rom Manager that broke your recovery. Don't use it. Yes, you may have been using it for a long time without problems, but that changed today, didn't it ? Eventually what happened to you will happen to everyone who uses Rom Manager on the I9100. It's unnecessary.

1) Flash stock rom using 'ODIN'
2) Search for 'Philz' kernel thread and fallow instruction there to 'Root' your 'Stock Rom'.
3) then u can try its recovery to restore the 'Nand bkp' .
4) if the Bkp rom is KK then flash a KK compatible kernel and then try restoring the Nand bkp.

I'll try - thank you!
I've been an idiot and managed to wipe my OS. I have TWRP and I was wondering what the easiest way to recover my OS would be.
Am I right in thinking I can get a stock rom from samsung updates, stick it on the SD card and flash it on?
IF so, can any of you give me detailed instructions or point me to some?
Thanks.
If you still have your recovery partition intact then u can just download a custom ROM (flashable zip file format) of your choice and flash thru TWRP. Hey presto fone fixed.
Check out the S3 android and original android dev pages, look thru them till you see one you like. Preferably pre-rooted.

Go to sammobile.com and download the latest stock rom for your country. Follow the guide in general forum on how to flash with Odin.

Odin doesn't seem to work for me, I boot into TWRP, connect via USB with Odin up and nothing changes.
Follow the guide, Odin uses download mode not recovery.
If you keep doing things without reading and understanding first then you will hard brick it.

@boomboomer is right you need to stop panicking sit back and read the stickies in the general thread >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/general/samsung-galaxy-s3-sticky-roll-thread-t2344125 << you are lacking basic knowledge and need to read up or you will end up with a paper weight as a phone.:crying:
I fixed it with a custom ROM via SD Card and install in TWRP. Sorry I forgot how to enter download mode as opposed to recovery mode. Thanks for all your help everyone.
