I did my phone back to stock MDK and after rooting I installed CWM recovery and tried to make a backup before i flash a new rom and it appears my CWM recovery didn't install correctly as it comes up with a droid guy laying down with a red triangle saying error. I tried flashing a zip file of TWRP and the CWM remains even after i run script over it. Any ideas how to fix this? Any help appreciated

The first thing I would do is download a root check app and if it says that I have root download goo manager and install twrp via that it makes it clean and simple

The recovery with all the colors is romracer's, which can be downloaded here. It's generally the one most people recommend using. It sounds like you need to delete your install-recovery.sh file to get rid of that exclamation point. Try the following from romracer's thread:
Thanks to mrinehart93 for pointing this out.
The system runs /system/etc/install-recovery.sh on boot with its stock rom. On boot it checks the recovery partition for some update and with CWM installed decides to reflash the stock recovery over it. Rename or delete the file and the CWM should stick.

I had the same problem before I installed romracer's CWM. It's the only one I've used since. If you decide to install his, Rom Manager should recognize it and allow you to use it instead of its stock one. Just don't flash CWM from within the app after that, or I think it will overwrite romracer's with the stock Rom Manager one.
E:Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip (No space left on device)
The phone is rooted as I've searched on google and what little I could find says to have it rooted. Not exactly sure what to try. I've wiped and reset everything and still a no go. Doesn't matter which ROM is selected either. Thank you.

My best advice is to unroot and do a complete factory reset and try to root again

Just rooted it and checked it with super user downloaded ROM manager set it to Recovery mode from there and still the same error.
You should still try to unroot even if you just rooted. It fixes many problems

Do you have Clockwork recovery installed on your phone? How are you trying to install these custom ROMs? Are you using ROM Manager?
You don't need root to flash a Rom...
Get Odin
Get an Odin flashable version of cwm
Flash said recovery with Odin
Boot into recovery by holding all the buttons till you feel a vibrant and letting off the power button, or the adb command: adb reboot recovery (or since you have root, download a terminal emulator from the market enter the command: reboot recovery, then Grant superuser permission.)
Then Flash Rom in cwm...
Old version of TWRP maybe?
To run the ROM Manager I needed root access. I tried to load the ROM from the ROM Manager and also straight from manual recovery mode.

Trying to install yours and i get
E:signature verification failed
That is stock recovery 3e...
Go read my post above...
THIS IS A LINK TO CWM TOUCH...JUST CLICK ANYWHERE HERE AND GET THE ODIN FLASHABLE VERSION
You do not need root to flash a Rom... Rom manager is not needed, and in fact just causes more problems than is worth
I don't think ROMmanager is even capable of flashing anything on the note. Someone correct me if I am wrong
You're correct...i wish that app would just go away and be erased from people's memories.
Actually i don't think Rom manager has worked on any Samsung device since eclair...as froyo was when they introduced 3e recovery, which requires signed update.zips, which only Samsung has the signature tool for.
So the update.zip Rom manager downloads to flash cwm with just gets stuck at "E: signature verification failed"
I'm still getting errors I'm going to search on youtube some more and see what could possibly be an issue. I go in with Up+home+power and erase everything I can in there and try to load from .zip and errors.
So I got it to work. I didn't really do anything differently except put it on my external SD card instead of my internal.
I've tried flashing recovery via Odin and CWM Recovery and it will reboot into recovery just fine. However, when I let it reboot into android, turn it off, and then go back into recovery, CWM is gone. The phone, however, stays rooted.
Any idea what could be wrong or how to fix this?
Secondly, if I can get into CWM immediately after flashing, is it safe to flash a new ROM at that point or do I need to get CWM to stick first?
Anyone? Any suggestions at all will be appreciated

Sure... You can flash a rom immediately following the flash of cwm.... Did you also install busy box?
Which cwm are you trying to use? 5.8.4.7 seems to do me good....?

Before your phone boots after installing cwm in Odin do a battery pull then boot into recovery （Volume Up+Home+power) then flash your superuser/root package. It will stick then.

I tried using that CWM version as well as an older one. Both work and I can get busy box and superuser installed once it boots up. But when I power down and try to go back into recovery, CWM is gone. I do get to keep root though.

I tried unchecking the auto-reboot button on Odin 4 and 7, and going that route. Both allow me to get into CWM, where I try to flash the recovery v5.zip. Still doesn't stick unfortunately.
My flash counter is up to about 10 now, trying to get CWM to stick..

Thanks everyone. I used CWM toolkit, reflashed the stock recovery, then used odin 3.07 to re-flash CWM 5.5.0.4 and it stuck.
I was only wondering if this was available since we can't flash recovery images on the opposite recovery. I have made a recovery image in TWRP but have not gone so far to not just flash CWM and make a recovery image that will serve as my new point zero. Just curious since I only saw flashable CWM.

the link you gave to TWRP recovery was exactly what i was looking for. In the TWRP website they have a flashable option for TWRP to use in whatever existing recovery you have, that is CWM for us. Under droidstyle's guide (there's the thread also in dev section too for CWM) there is also a link for flashable CWM so now im set.
Although you already found what you were looking for, you can also download/run the goo manager app, press menu->install open recovery script. That will install TWRP.

I was hoping this way would let me get out but Ive now lost any custom recovery while in paranoid android. So what i did was while in Jelly Beans rom is flash CWM recovery to then flash Paranoid. I then decided to go back to beans, and i tried to flash TWRP zip that i has to restore my recovery. That failed an i have no recovery. I only have android system recovery <3e>. I am currently trying the goo manager to get me back, but so far i dont think im doing it right ill keep trying.
...So with goo manager i cant flash back to beans, i cant flash CWM back on, and ive: installed open recovery script to to install the TWRP img file but it must not have worked, but i cant see anything to indicate not.
Ok so im am stuck with just the stock recovery. In goo manager it says the recovery was installed but if is reboot to recovery its just crappy old boring stock and if i try to flash anything from goo manager it just reboots to that same stock recovery. Anyone know how to get a custom recovery back?

The TWRP in goo manager is not the correct one for our phone. I did the same thing and ended up in the same position as you. I used the suckitverizon file from Adams thread and odined it back on to the phone. If was in that position now I would use the newly released tool kit.
Good luck.

Im downloading the toolkit now but in the meantime did you have to restart the whole process in the 3 step bootloader unlock or did you just start at flashing suckitverizon version 2 in odin? Im just wondering how safe that is.

No I did not have to start over. If I recall correctly, I put the suckit file in the pda box and hit start. You can read up on it in Adams main thread and I know there were a few other people in the same fix.
Good luck
Toolkit saved my bacon. Many lessons learned. so if i want to restore an image in twrp say from paranoid then i use cwn to flash to a rom that plays nice with twrp then flash twrp back then recover in twrp. Now if i get stuck the toolkit has the correct twrp and cwm for the verizon note ii.
spoke too soon i though at least getting cwm was all good. However the toolkit wont install TWRP which is what i have my backups made on. i followed all the step on screen and selected sch-i605 to be flashed in odin. I can only reboot into stock recovery afterwards. :crying:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2051992 This has been asked (by me) and answered (by awesome folks with more sense than me).
ok it all over. CWM can be had by flashing zip in twrp or through tool kit. twrp i only regained by odining again the suckitverizon from Adam's unlockbootloader thread.
I`m on ICS gsm razr with TWRP installed, but I'd like to install CWM to restore a stock backup made last year with it, because I think I somehow bricked my stock slot rom......
No success trying to install CWM with Rom Manager, so I'd like to know if there's any way to install a CWM zip via stock recovery...
If yes, will I lose TWRP? And is there a stock recovery flashable TWRP zip so I can go back eventually?
My usb connection isn't working, so I can't flash stock via RSD.
I'm guessing that my usb problem is related to my stock slot rom issue, because even when charging it acts weird, not even charging sometimes...
Woul be thankful for any help!

Dont try to install CWM recovery using Rom Manager! Use eitheir Safetrap by Hashcode (based on TWRP) or Boot Menu Manager by whirleyes (based on TWRP). If you have usb problem, so nothing you can do. I suggest you to buy a usb cable. So you can flash the Stock rom.

You're not getting it... Already tried to install CWM via Rom Manager and BMM, but no success... Seems like TWRP persists after I try to install CWM...
I know there's a way to install custom recovery from stock recovery, but I'm not sure which CWM zip file I need to use...
And I've already tried a usb cable my friend, my issue is exacty that my phone doesn't get recovgnized by my computer...
So, can someone point me a zip CWM/TWRP file that can be used to install custom reco very via stock recovery?
That's all I ask and I''l be very thankful!

No, you cant install a zip file from stock recovery unless it was signed from Motorola. This phone are different with other phones. What do you mean by TWRP recovery? Is it Safestrap or what?

Safetrap will install Team Win Project Recovery (TWRP), while Bootmenu and Rom Manager install ClockWork Mod Recovery (CWM), right?
I need to boot into CWM Recovery, caus I have a backup I made there that could fix my usb issue and allow me to go back to stock... But the issue is that I've got safestrap (TWRP) installed, and i can only boot into safestrap. Tried to install BootMenu and even Rom Manager, but haven't managed to boot into CWM...
I think i have CWM installed, but I junt cant boot into it... Any ideas?
Can I install CWM via safestrap? Will it overwrite it?
