Here don't extract, just open it.
Opened rom contains:

Boot.img
4.In that rom remove Recovery folder if not it will replaces ur CWM
5.Extract only one file in this order META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script
Note-extract only updater-script somewhere in your pc . Now delete this file permanently from Rom.
6.Minimize the 7zip window, don’t close. Now open extracted updater-script file with NOTEPAD++.don't use default windows notepad since it will make updater-script corrupt.
7.Edit like this-Delete 1st word in 1st Line. u will see like this 'assert' Don't delete more than that.only one word - assert
8.Then delete this line "package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system")"
9.Then this "set_perm(0, 0, 0544, "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh");"
10.Save it like this-save as all.
11.Close it and Maximize 7zip software window & add the edited updater-script file to rom exactly previously where u deleted updater-script.
12.Now go to system/build.prop and extract it using 7zip to desktop and delete it from ROM.Open it using notepad ++ and edit these lines:
ro.product.locale.language=zh
ro.product.locale.region=CN
persist.sys.timezone=Asia/Shanghai
In place of zh write en, CN-> US ,Asia/Shanghai-> Asia/Calcutta
Save all and add this build.prop using 7zip in ROM/system folder.
That's it all you have done.The rom saved.Now copy the rom on to ur sd card.Flash through cwm.

11) If someone don't like increasing ringtone of incoming calls, here is Disable_Increasing_Ring Mod originally posted on 4pda.ru
12) I use File Manager from Market (needs root), it's free and works perfectly!

3) Tap on install zip
4) Go to choose zip from sdcard or choose zip from external sdcard depending on when the Mode has been stored;
5) Tap on desirable Mod (_nameofthemod_.zip);
6) Confirm installation: Yes - Install _nameofthemod_.zip;

i9192 - manual for gettin ROOT and CWMR in one operation
Here is manual for gettin ROOT and CWMR in one operation on i9192:
1. Download programs:
SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.9.0.exe
UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.34.zip
recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.3-serranoltexx.tar.zip
Odin_v3.07.zip (I use it) or Odin_v3.09.zip
Samsung Kies
2. UnRAR if necessary and install on your Comp programs SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.9.0.exe and Samsung KIES (all them must be run As Administrator), then restart your Comp. And you'd better use fully charged laptop.
3. Unzip programs Odin_v3.07.zip & recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.3-serranoltexx.tar.zip (in one folder in a place you can easily find on C: drive of your Comp).
Turn OFF antivirus program, Samsung KIES and al KIES-related processes (from Task Manager)
4. Copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.34.zip in your Phone, in directory “storage/emulated/0” on SD card.
5. Charge your phone battery at least till 75% (sometimes process lasts long and kills weak batteries). Turn off the phone. Press simultaneously and hold home, volume down and power. Download screen should appear (text and yellow triangle). Release buttons.
Connect USB cable (you'd better use original tested cable and plug it into mounted-on-Motherboard USB nest, it's quite critical)
If necessary, wait till drivers are installed on Comp again, then press volume up - you'll see green Android.
6. Start Odin (run As Administrator), make sure that you see small yellow window (or blue one, depending on Odin) stating number of COM-port in upper left corner of the interface, Uncheck "Auto Reboot" then click PDA button to select the recovery image.
Select "recovery-clockwork-6.0.3.3-serranoltexx.tar.md5" file, and press Start button.
7. Wait till you see word “PASS” in left corner. Do not do anything before it appears.
8. Remove USB cable and then remove and install back battery on your phone.
NOTE: In theory if your device was already rooted it must remain, but practically I've heard a lot about problems with correct working of programs with root access after installation of CWM, so you'd better continue with the Rooting procedure:
9. Do NOT turn the phone ON, just simultaneously hold power, volume up and home buttons to boot into recovery mode.
Select the option "install zip” (navigation by “volume up/down”, choose/install using “home”, back with “power”), then “choose zip from sdcard”, then “0/” and chose “UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.34.zip”, say “YES - Install UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.34.zip”, wait till all is done.
10. Go back using “Power” button and chose “reboot system now”, say “YES” if it asked something additionally.
11. After reboot you can enjoy your rooted device with CWM. You'll see icon of the programm SuperSU in your Apps.
12. You can Enter CWM Recovery by turning your phone off and pushing simultaneously power, volume up and home buttons. Hold them till you fill vibration and see blue words "RECOVERY BOOTING", then release buttons, wait till you see light-blue menu on grey and use it
P.S. All above-mentioned steps were checked on my own i9192 and made using HP laptop running Win7 x64. All photos/screens made by my goodself Links to programs are in the top - just click on them
Use for i9190?
Thank man!

Hello,
the link to the battery circle mod didn't work. Can you post the link again or explain how you changed it?
Regards
2) top right, battery in circle, got it from HERE (needs root).
Link not Available
EwOkie, f1637961,
Sorry to you and for all who tried to get battery. Link is restored, you can get it there or HERE.
Alarm icon
Just for fun - changed status-bar icons:
1) Old alarm-clock icon, made it in 3 colors - red, blue and gold, on white and transparent background, like this:
You can just download file SystemUI from your phone (it's in /system/app) and replace original icon in SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi (open in WinRAR and copy file from my folder), then replace (Override) original SystemUI.apk in /system/app on your phone and reboot.
Do not forget to rename desirable file to stat_sys_alarm.png - just remove all that follows that name, i.e. rename stat_sys_alarm BLUE ON WHITE in stat_sys_alarm.
Download RAR-file with icons and the sources HERE
2) WiFi icons in blue:
Get these icons HERE (there are 2 folders with sets of blue and stock icons). Installation is simple, same as alarm icons - just download file SystemUI from your phone (it's in /system/app) and replace original icon in SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi (open in WinRAR and copy file from my folder), then replace (Override) original SystemUI.apk in /system/app on your phone and reboot.

3) GPS Fix
Either Flash This patch......-->> GPS patch
OR FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS :-
Download EPO File First...
IF GPS not working follow following steps:-
THIS SHOULD BE DONE OUTDOORS.
1. Turn GPS off on your phone.
2. Open Root Explorer and find the mtkgps.dat file in /data or /data/misc
3. Delete mtkgps.dat
4. Reboot phone
5. Open Mobileuncle Tools
6. Tap on 'Engineer Mode'
7. Tap on 'Engineer Mode (MTK)'
8. Scroll across to 'Location'
9. Tap on 'Location Based Service'
10. Tap on 'AGPS' and then make sure 'A-GPS On/Off' is checked
11. Tap on 'EPO' and then make sure 'Enable EPO' is checked
12. Swipe down (notification bar) and turn GPS on
13. Hit back and then tap 'YGPS'
14. Wait until you get position lock (mine took about 6 seconds).
15. This process should create a new mtkgps.dat file.
16. Hit home button and open GPS Test.
17. You should get a position lock reasonably quickly.
Even though you have enabled A-GPS and EPO you can now turn them off (although any subsequent position lock should be quicker if these are enabled).

4) Multi-Windows
1) Open Xposed Installer
- Modules---> tick xhalofloating window
- Framework---> install/update
- after installing/updating go in modules again and see whether the module is still checked.(smtimes it gets unchecked)
- Reboot phone.
2) You will see three new apps on deskstop
- multiwindowsidebar
- Toggle for multiwindowsidebar
- XhaloFloadting window
3) Before trying multiwindow for first time-
- Open Xhalofloating window
- U will see 'Movable and re-sizable'... switch it
- This will allow u to move and resize windows
(without doing this its difficult to close any floating window,since close option cant be seen)
4) Customize-
- Customize multiwindowsidebar and xhalo as you want
- ADD any APPS you want in SIDEBAR
- I Recommend-
- Start on boot
- select 'Drag launch mode' potrait mode
- Enable statusbar taskbar from xhalo
5) Now,Enjoy Multi-window
You will get use to........

14. Wait until you get position lock (mine took about 6 seconds).
15. This process should create a new mtkgps.dat file.
16. Hit home button and open GPS Test.
17. You should get a position lock reasonably quickly.
Even though you have enabled A-GPS and EPO you can now turn them off (although any subsequent position lock should be quicker if these are enabled).

4) Multi-Windows
1) Open Xposed Installer
- Modules---> tick xhalofloating window
- Framework---> install/update
- after installing/updating go in modules again and see whether the module is still checked.(smtimes it gets unchecked)
- Reboot phone.
2) You will see three new apps on deskstop
- multiwindowsidebar
- Toggle for multiwindowsidebar
- XhaloFloadting window
3) Before trying multiwindow for first time-
- Open Xhalofloating window
- U will see 'Movable and re-sizable'... switch it
- This will allow u to move and resize windows
(without doing this its difficult to close any floating window,since close option cant be seen)
4) Customize-
- Customize multiwindowsidebar and xhalo as you want
- ADD any APPS you want in SIDEBAR
- I Recommend-
- Start on boot
- select 'Drag launch mode' potrait mode
- Enable statusbar taskbar from xhalo
5) Now,Enjoy Multi-window
You will get use to........
