I tried to upload this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2288978) the first one because I can't get the others. When I boot it in recovery and try to install it it says:
Android system recovery <3e>
1. reboot system now

The reason that the ROM will not install on your device is because you are trying to flash a ROM in the stock Android recovery. To install a custom ROM you will need to install a custom recovery image such as Clockworkmod Recovery. For a full guide on how to root your device, and install a custom recovery image I would recommend checking out this guide. If have any more questions let me know I'll be happy to help you out.

How do I instal Clockworkmod Recovery.
Also my device isn't rooted
That thread is also discontinued, here are the steps I used:
Install Rom:
Download rom and copy it to your device
Boot into recovery
Choose in recovery install zip from sdcard ==> choose zip from sdcard
Choose the Rom and hit yes
Wait until installation is done!
Do not forget to wipe data/cache/dalvik cache for better experience
Reboot and enjoy!

Just to clarify have you now successfully rooted your device and installed Clockworkmod Recovery? If you haven't rooted your device and installed Clockworkmod Recovery yet the .tar file that you need to flash in Odin can be found here. Once you have rooted your device and installed Clockworkmod Recovery, the KingOS ROM will be a .zip file you do not need to extract anything from the .zip file simply follow the original flashing instructions you came across for the KingOS ROM. As always let me know if you still have questions.

For the US version I would recommend following this guide to root first, downloading on the rooted file system images .zip files, extracting the rooted system image .tar file and then flashing it through Odin. After you flash the rooted system image you will need to install a Superuser app such as SuperSU.

Make sure you install through Odin the kernel that includes Clockworkmod recovery that I linked to originally. The ROM will not flash without a custom recovery such as Clockworkmod recovery installed.

i've tried villainrom and cognition....currently i'm running on lightinrom but that was flashed through odin....:/
it boots normally back to lightinrom...when i flash the cf root kernel thorough odin it would not boot rather than stay on the samsung galaxy s logo...it's drivin me nuts...don't know what to try.....
have you tried downloading a different rom and tried that?
As sicopat said, it may be worth downloading again and trying that.
What rom you trying to flash?
i've tried sensation rom, villainrom and cognition rom...all do the same...when i press ok to install the rom cwm reads data, says update installation and then immidiatelly installation aborted....someone experienced gs2 user please help....
I would try going back to stock and start from scratch dude. I'm not overly experienced as I've only had my SGS2 a week, but I followed all the guides and didnt get any issues. Seems like its a problem with CWM if its not letting you do anyy roms at all?
You are getting the orange CWM 4.0.0.2 screen right?
Also I would try posting in the Q & A section.

It sounds like you are using the Rom Manager from the Market when you should be using the CWM app.
If you don't have the CWM app and you are using a kernel that has CWM, you need to boot into Recovery using Power, Volume Up and Home buttons then install your zip from the sd card.
Just use the flash update mode.
i tried both rom manager and cwm app separetly...even when i tried rom manager it would sent me to the cwm recovry........do you think it has anything to do with my pc unziping the roms the moment the're downloded????because that happend and i compressed them back to zip files.....:/

Yes of course, you should not be unzipping the files because it corrupts them. Do yourself a favour and become more familiar with flashing instructions, it will save you a lot of panic and anxiety, like what you have just been through.

Connect phone to your computer. Open the FeaMod file through the PDA section on Odin and then start the process.
After Odin installs it and you get a "PASS" you will have a custom recovery and you can follow the steps said above.

No you cant flash a Custom ROM from stock recovery, you need a custom recovery and root access on your phone for flashing custom roms
the method you linked is only for rooting, the recovery appearing is only a temporory one from which you can only install SU-Busybox-Installer.zip.

I didn't test it myself, but I think that it will work.
If the custom ROM is provided as Odin-flashable tar file, you don't need a CWM recovery to flash it. Just put the ROm tar file into PDA section of Odin and flash it to your phone.
Only if the custom ROM is available as CWM-flashable zip file, you need to flash a kernel containing CWM recovery first.
I prefer to flash CF-Root kernel from Chainfire with Odin. It contains CWM Manager app and CWM recovery of cause.
When you are in doubt, stick to the flashing instructions of the ROM developer - usually in the corresponding ROM thread.
P.S.:
As soon as you have CWM recovery, create a nandroid/system backup.
So you will be able to go back to your current system, if something goes wrong with the new ROM.
Good luck !
Oh cool, lemme try it

All you need to do is download cwm recovery from here http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager in your SD card and flash the Dowloaded zip from stock recovery .
Once you flash, your stock recovery will be converted to cwm recovery
After that flash any custom rom of your choice. Simple and short

No you can flash any ROM you want, just like any other cwm.
I have used it multiple times, but the Queston is can you do it the first time, before you choose that busy box installer.

Not to sure, but i think in order to go from stock to 10.1 you need to get cm9 in there first, same also assuming that you are trying the latest pac which is android 4.3. Can you list down your steps that you did in exact order? also assuming you did all the root and everything since you said you can boot into cwm.
Well here is what I have done.
1. Rooted the galaxy player with framaroot
2. Used Odin to flash a .tar file which gave me cwm
3. Downloaded all the Roms I said, two are on the SD card and 1 is on the internal storage
4. Installed Rom Manager
5. Have tried using ROM manager and just manually using CWM recovery to install each of the Roms.
6. ROM manager says the files don't exist(which they do)
7. Cwm recovery says an error occurred and its like "error or section 7" something like that... Why is this happening? It sounds like I'm doing everything right....

This post talks about recovering from being bricked but can be applied to getting a custom rom into you sgp5 in general. note the download link for Galaxy player bootloaders already contains odin the pit file and the tar file. this is however only to get it to cwm and install a rom you already have on sd card or internal memory. You would start on step 4 since your not bricked, past step 4 is just getting it into cwm to load roms.

Geez... OK, I can't be certain but I don't think ROM manager works for gp5. You need to flash a kernel that has cwm recovery such as entropy's daily driver. From there you can flash directly to cm10.1 or cm10.2 you just need to wipe everything first(including system)...

You can either flash via odin/heimdall (.tar) or flash the .zip in recovery. You just need the latest version of the recovery of your liking in either form.
Thanks friends. I will try it
By the way when you mean flash through recovery means. How? By using app like Flasher? Is it .tar or .tar.md5 for Odin? And also what it actually does is overwriting the old recovery. Right?

1) Just boot into recovery and choose "install zip" (or similar depending on the recovery you use), choose the zip file and confirm
2) Both .tar and .tar.md5 are fine
3) Yes it does overwrite the old one
I hope when flashing through Odin, auto reboot and f.reset time is to be checked.

Flashing through ODIN didn't replace the older CWM . What should I do now? Can I just use ROM Manager to update it?

Download Rashr from the PS and try to flash TWRP or Philz Recovery with that.
