Hi All..
Im pretty much a noob..last week i decided to install cyanogenmod on my phone.Im using international version of Galaxy Note GTN7000.
I saw there was a windows installer on cm website..but wanted to make a backup of my current rom..
i rooted my phone using kingo android root..installed rom manager..flashed latest clockworkmod recovery..
but on booting into recovery,i found stock recovery was being forced..i read somewhere it was because of unlocked bootloader..
on cyanogenmod wiki page,i found installation of clockworkmod recov using heimdall..everything went fine ...blue progress bar was shown in the download mode...and when i rebooted into recovery mode i saw the first danger sign..there was a yellow triangle beneath galaxy note logo..
and then it booted into clockworkmod recovery 5.8..Foolishly i did a system backup..rebooted...surprised to find phone went into black screen after displaying a note logo with yellow triangle beneath..tried recovery from clockworkmod without hope but that didnt work as expected...
This is the situation..All i need now is to install cyanogenmod 10.1.3 stable on my device..i dont want a custom rom backup anymore..
'but i saw in forums i will need to flash a custom rom from sammobile...
All help will be appreciated.Pleasen help..

At first flash a Samsung firmware through Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
I recommend you not using Rom Manager. Have a look at PhilZ's thread for having a safe kernel and custom recovery to be able to backup and flash what you want.
doubt
Can i flash stock rom from sammobile
and go for cyanogenmod windows installer without flashing philz kernel

I really don't like this CM installer... Toolkits won't help you in case of trouble.
Download a firmware from SamMobile and flash it with Odin then you will be able to install PhilZ and your CM rom (or another one )

Yes you can but the most important thing on N7000 is to have a SAFE kernel before wiping or flashing from recovery. (more details in the N7100 sections)
Here are the general instructions to flash a new custom rom:
1. Having root and a working custom recovery (updated)
2. Boot into recovery mode (VOL DOWN + POWER + HOME) then VOL UP to accept the warning.
3. Make a Nandroid backup and backup your EFS.
4. Full wipe: wipe data (factory reset), cache, dalvik and system. Recoveries are different. You may need to go to another menu to format the system partition.
5. Flash rom
6. Flash Gapps
7. Reboot normally

Hey everyone, ive searched all over and havent been able to find a solution.
I've followed the instructions on how to root using CF-ROOT (odin) and successfully rooted and booted into cwm and installed Resurection remix 1.0.. Everything works great, except when i try to reboot and go back into CWM i get android system recovery <3e> and not cwm.
The only way to recover is to install cwm or cfroot from odin again and reinstall the rom.
Any idea what i'm doing wrong? thanks
Don't know, try to change rom and see if it happens again... I'm on v3rtr3ma and is really good.. Tried also wanamlite 9.9..

That reads as the rom you are using has no built in CWM recovery .
Logic says ask the rom builder or in his post .

Like JJEgan says, the ROM then sound like it comes with its own kernel, that DOESN'T have CWM recovery, but standard Android recovery. ROMs come with their own kernels, so every time you flash kernel first, then ROM, you are replacing the CF-root kernel, thus losing CWM recovery.
Just re flash the CF-root kernel to get it back after you flash the ROM. There is no need to flash the ROM again after you flash the kernel.
Try installing Rom Manager and make a recovery once installed (top item in rom manager)

correct me if im wrong.
you're REINSTALLING the rom, after you flash CF-ROOT? if you reinstall the rom, then cwm will be deleted.
You can use this temporary signed CWM zip.In recovery, choose apply update from storage and flash the zip and you get CWM. When you reboot, it will be gone.
This was taken from Here
You better take a look here for further information.

If he's installing CF-root, CWM and ROM Manager tend not to play nice together.
Look in the Resurection Remix OP!
After you installed Resurection Remix let it boot and flash CWM-zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854. That should give you 2nd recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
NOTE: İF YOU WANT FLASH SOMETHİNG FROM CWM RECOVERY FİRST YOU MUST İNSTALL CWM.ZİP FROM STOCK RECOVERY MOD(APPLY UPDATE FROM EXTERNAL STORAGE AND CHOOSE CWM.ZİP AND İNSTALL)

But the moment you flash CWM.ZIP, recovery mode is reloaded and you can flash anything...

LOL, indeed, reading the first post of the ROM thread is a good idea too.
OP, as gee2012 notes, there is a NOTE in the Resurrection Remix thread in all caps, right under the "Rom Installation (please don`t miss any step! )" section.
On an unrelated note: gee2012, you of Chinese descent?
EDIT: Whoops! didn't see jakezpeenz's post. Sorry, not meaning to repeat what a bunch of other people already said.
I can confirm
hi
I can confirm that after installing ICS remix you need to flash the cwm tar thru Odin after you install ICS to get CWM
I had to do it yesterday
I I rooted my S2 I777 using Frameroot-1.4.2 and flashed via Odin CWM 5.0.2.3 then I flashed AoCP KitKat from from GalaxyS2Root.com and now my phone is in a loop entering in recovery mode.
I flashed the rom on CWM and when I asked to reboot the system it start reboot and enter in recovery mode again.
I tried to flash the official rom from AT&T with Android 2.3.4 and even after I flash this rom it doesn't stop to enter in recovery mode.
First thing to do: perform a wipe/data from within recovery.

It was done and still reboot in recovery.
I tried to install a stock rom via Odin 1,85 but I failed in all the tries then I tried via Odin 3.07 and it worked and I did a full wipe and rebooted the system and it got back to recovery mode then I did it again and it worked.
Now I'm using a stock Rom with Androind 4.2.1.
Before it works I've tried to install the stock Rom and it worked then I rooted the phone and installed CWM and it always reboot in recovery mode.

This part makes me think you use Rom Manager, and that would explain why it keeps rebooting. There's no need to install CWM separately as it's included in i777 kernels. Rom Manager will ruin your phone, stay away from it (see the sticky).

I don't use Rom Manager.
It was rooted before and I was using a KitKat Rom but I tried to flash the Rom I mentioned and it bricked.
I unbricked it and rooted and installed CWM then it started with the problem.
As I said now I'm using a stock Rom with Android 4.2.1.
You said CWM is included in i777 Kernels so if I root my phone I can simply get in recovery mode and use the stock recovery to flash the Rom?
You mentioned that you rooted the stock firmware and installed a custom recovery, but without knowing your root - recovery process, it's hard to say where things went sideways.
The kernel of the i777 does include the recovery, but the stock kernel cannot be used to flash custom firmware.
>>this guide<< is one of the more reliable ways to go from stock to custom firmware.
summary;
-framaroot to establish root
-mobile odin to install custom kernel
-custom kernel to install custom firmware
happy flashing

I tried to follow the instruction in the link you sent me but I failed doing it.
I searched on google and I saw that Odin has an option OTA / Update zip but mine doesn't have this option.
Is there something I should do before flash a custom rom?

Agreed, the instructions in that guide can be a little confusing.
First, are you sure you are using the AT&T Galaxy S II SGH-I777? Because you said several times in this thread that you are now running 4.2.1, but there is no such version of the os for this phone. The latest official AT&T stock firmware is I777UCMD8 which is 4.1.2.
If you affirm that your phone is SGH-I777 running UCMD8 firmware, and that you have root, then the next step is to use mobile odin to flash AJK v4.9 NoSwap kernel. Download the zip file from the Kernel thread. Open the zip file with an archiving tool such as win-zip, 7zip, etc. and extract the boot.img. Mobile odin will not recognize the zip file, but it will recognize the boot.img as a kernel, and will flash that. So transfer the boot image to the phone sd card and flash with mobile odin.
Next, you will find that the phone buttons don't work. Transfer the AJK v4.9 zip file to the sd card, enter into Clockwork Mod recovery and flash the AJK v4.9 zip file. This will fix the buttons. Now you have a working stock UCMD8 with custom AJK kernel. Now you are ready to flash what ever firmware you want. Hope this helps, and feel free to ask questions.

I did exactly what you said and it worked but when I tried to flash a custom Rom it failed and bricked my phone again.
And now I'm back to the first topic, it always reboots in the recovery mode.
I'll try to fix it again.
I didn't see the error it showed me when failed in flash the custom rom. I know I should have seen it.
Here is a video of my phone rebooting in the recovery mode.

What firmware did you try to flash? If you tried again to flash the "AoCP KitKat from GalaxyS2Root dot com" that you mentioned in your first post, that in itself could be the problem. In the past, many products from the GalaxyS2Root website have caused numerous and various types of problems, including similar to your issue. For most of the past two and a half years, we have been advising people to avoid the Galaxy S2 Root website and products. It is best to flash firmware downloaded from XDA-Developers.
If you are trying to install a version of kitkat on your phone, then you also probably need advice from someone more familiar with kitkat, like cyril279 or SteveMurphy. Maybe one of them will jump in and help.

Just breezed through this and didn't see this mentioned but in the aocp kitkat forum here it states in the op you must be on cwm 6.0.4.4 or higher to flash their ROM. This is true for all kitkat ROMs I've tried so far. This may have been the source of your problem although usually most report getting a status7 error at this point but I'm not familiar with that cwm version you mentioned.
Also twrp works really well and it's touch based.

If you go back to AT&T stock 4.1.2 I777UCMD8 to start over, here are a couple of ways to get the kernel you need. Please bear in mind that the only kernel that will boot UCMD8 into system is the AJK v4.9 kernel that you used before. When you install another kernel such as RenderBroken's CWM or TWRP kenrel, or the one from OmniRom, the system will no longer boot, but you will be able to boot into recovery, so just avoid trying to boot the system, and choose the option to boot directly into recovery. Or... pull the battery and then use the button combo to enter recovery.
1) Extract the boot.img directly from the OmniRom zip file, and flash that using mobile odin. In this case, once you have UCMD8 rooted, you can skip the step of flashing AJK and flash the OmniRom kernel directly. Reboot into the new recovery and flash OmniRom.
2) Flash the AJK kernel as in my previous instructions. Then enter recovery and flash RenderBroken's kernel. Boot directly into recovery and flash OmniRom.

ALL - via android consule, via odin, and i dont know about other method. with all other devices i had NO problem at all and i flashed many roms before. its the fors time something like that happened to me.
Try this with Odin: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9300/philz_touch_6.25.0-i9300.tar.md5 Put it at "PDA". What error gives you Odin ? Is the phone rooted ? Have you tried installing with CWM Manager from playStore ? Also, try TWRP Manager app, as I believe it does not require root to install the recovery. After TWRP is installed, download the CWM zip and flash it. Ypour friend is running stock ROM, right ?
If you're Rooted then download and install "ROM Manager" From Play Store and that'll guide you through installing the latest CWM for your device. This is the safest method i know.
Hi developers and folks
I'd really like to know if i can flash samsung galaxy young duos' stock recovery to clockworkmod recovery with odin
I have the zip file of cwm but i don't like to flash it everytime i enter in this mode, can i flash it? Do i need a custom kernel with cwm built-in? Any answer will be appreciated

You can easily switch stock recovery to cwm with flashify app,No need Odin. Just flash recovery.img with this app & also u can flash custom kernals.

Just press THANKS.........
Sadly didn't work, it says that my phone didn't pass the compability test so what's now? When i look for it on google play it says "your device isn't compatible with this version" but it installed succefully on my device running originally 2.3.6 with generic kitkat rom in 4.4.2 is there any method to do it in odin at least? Or custom kernel would be better? Answers will be appreciated.
No way to change it, also the risk is extreme i don't wanna brick my device, even i installed a custom kernel from odin, it showed "PASS" and my phone restarted and appeared the samsung logo later it turned off and restarted again and later the screen kept in white and i did need to get back to the old kernel
Anyway flash the stock recovery it's impossible to do.

You know that without cwm recovery u can't flash custom roms & kernals.
Pleas clear that which recovery u want stock recovery or cwm recovery?
And why?
Then I can easily guide or help u.
Best regards.
I want to change stock recovery to cwm recovery. I want cwm permanently no temporal, i know the zip file it's temporal but i want it permanent! I don't know how my phone did install "Compact" kernel with stock recovery and not with cwm i've had to do it that way 'cause odin didn't work and my phone got bricked
Can i install cwm permanent on samsung galaxy young duos? (S6102B)
I'll be very grateful if somebody could explain me!
The reason why i want cwm permanent and why i want it it's because i don't want to enter in recovery and see always the limited stock recovery with just 4 options

Welcome new XDA user,
Right now, you have stock recovery and with stock recovery, you won't be able to flash anything.
In order to flash a different rom, you first need to flash a different kernel or recovery using ODIN.
You can flash a kernel like DorimanX or Gustavo Kernel which contains CWM recovery. From there, you will be able to flash ROMs like normal. You require the .tar kernel files to flash via ODIN. Kitkat or Lollipop kernels will work fine and should allow you to flash most zips. Apolo kernel will also do fine too.

Did you make sure your phone was in download mode (volume down + home button + power key) when using ODIN? Rom manager is an old application and shouldn't work on CM13. Instead, the app flashify should work better, that's if root is enabled of course (development settings, enable root for apps).

To add to what @gsstudios has said.....
I seem to remember reading that rom manager breaks things on the S2.....specifically I recall it being mentioned that it breaks recovery mode....
Probably best not to use it as if it hasn't broken things yet, it eventually will do.....
