Update cwm on s3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone !
i recently root my galaxy s3 - gti9300.
i used cf root (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...3-07-2012-cf-root-6-4-supersu-cwm5-5-t1695238).
this cf root comes with built in cwm 5.5 recovery, now my question is if i can update it to the latest of cwm, and how ?
(becuase i want to flash to ArchiDroid rom and it said that you need cwm 6 + i think )
if you now pliz help me !
thank for all helpers !

Just download the latest CWM version on this forum (not in General but in Original Development). Just put it on your device and flash it using the CWM recovery that's already on your device.

You follow the instruction thats as simple as it is .
directly or i need to install custom kernel first... and will that custom kernel ruin my phones stock ROM ?
Does not make sense you need to read the FAQS and GUIDES
A custom kernel will no longer be a stock kernel .

in order to install CM9 rom u have to first root ur Phone using a CF-root Kernel
since Cm9 cannot be flashed with Stock recovery as it needs Custom recovery
so first root ur phone and then install CM9
My phone is already root. (with any PC )
CWM.zip is a ClockWorkMod in a ZIP to load in memory a CWM-recovery 5.X
What is a CF-Root kernel ?

CF- chain Fire-Root kernel will root ur phone and install custom recovery on ur Phone
so if ur phone is already rooted then install the CWM.zip file, then reboot into cwm recovery and install the CM9 zip file
before that in cwm recovery make a nandroid bkp of ur exsisting rom first
and also follow the instructions of flashing CM9 rom carefully form there thread OP
Thanks, i will try in 2 days

You root it using the same method as before, I assume via ODIN, but with an LP7 CF-Root kernel.

Try flashing a PDA which has a CF-root available ( via PC-ODIN).
Then flash the CF root to gain root and CWM.

[Q] Help! How to install new ROM

Dear all,
I need some instructions or tutorial how to install new ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100).
I will update some screenshots for you to check what is right now o the phone. Cause Im new in Android, any help will be great. Also I would like to install this ROM on my S2 from this link: http: //galaxys2root. com/galaxy-s2-roms/cm11-android-4-4-3-for-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100sgh-i777/
just delete space after http: and before .com
if u need any more info just write what you need.
Thank you so much in advance!
As I can see you have cwm recovery installed.
Here is tutorial how to root, flash recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/guide-how-to-root-flash-rom-sgs2-newbie-t2419562
Before you can install KitKat ROMs you'll need to have cwm recovery v6.0.47 at least. Just flash Gustavo_s kernel or Apollo 7.1 for cm. Then you can flash KitKat from recovery. Don't forget to backup your efs partition.
I prefer flash Philz kernel ( with cwm 6.0.2.8 + root ..) later update my recovery ( i updated at 6.0.5.0 ) later reboot in recovery ( in this step you cant use your device but only the Recovery, dont worry it's normal), full wipe and you can flash the Cm11 and the gapps ... 5 minutes and u'll have a better device ... Oh naturally dont forget a EFS folder backup and a Nandroid backup ( with the philz kernel). You can find all of these things in this forum.

I installed CM11 Android 4.4.3 for Galaxy S2 and works amaizing! You need to try this one! Cause Im new I cant post links. If u r interested, PM me.

Galaxy s3 no CWM, just stock.

I tried to root my galaxy s3(with CWM in odin) but ended up being in stock recovery after doing the things with ODIN. What to do now?
Thanks
Search, read, learn as you did something wrong. Start with the sticky thread in general forum.
