Can somebody give me the flashable Stock Recovery zip for S5830i? That I can use on CWM. My phone uses CWM being it's default on recovery mode.

Hi, I recently flashed cf-root after buying my gs2. I installed rom manager and flahed cwm 4.0.0.2 from there. However now when I reboot into recovery I get the custom cwm that comes with cfroot 4. If I pull the battery in the custom cwm when I put the battery back in I get cwm 4.0.0.2.
Does anyone know how I can remove the custom cwm or both and then flash cwm 4.0.0.2?
Thanks in advance.
Can nobody help with this?
Yes, in the menu move to reboot using volume keys and hit home
Failing that, odin a stock rom to recover

I flashed my stock kernel but restarting into recovery from rom manager still goes to the custom cwm.
In the original Galaxy S, Samsung bundle the kernel & the recovery in the zImage file in the stock firmware so that might be the case here too. Download the original from samfirmware.com, remove everything from the tar file except zImage and flash the tar as PDA through Odin
Can you not just fake-flash the CWM 4.0.0.2 recovery through the custom CWM (through an update.zip or whatever) as that is what ROM Manager does anyway

I tried flashing the zip from the custom cwm but it says unable to verify whole-file signature.
I odin'd Lightening rom 1.4 and now it seems im just left with the real CWM. yey!
Thanks for all your help.
I am running KG2 firmware and have rooted the device. However everytime I go into recovery mode through CWM, I do not get to see the install .zip from sdcard option.
What could be wrong ?
Can't you try using the CWM app when the phone is on to select a zip and flash it?
Wrong CWM should be 4 or above not 3 ( blue ).

I made a stock recovery on CWM...then later I got TWRP and I like it, but if I want my old recoveries I can't get to them. How can I create an option to boot one or the other when booting into recovery?
You will have to install CWM recovery back on the phone to install the CWM backups. Just keep the install file handy.
Can he get to CWM Recovery install from his new TWRP that comes up now when he boots into recovery??
I ask this, because I have(had) CWM and used it.. Then I went and installed TWRP.... and now it works.....
BUT my backup(nandroid) is CWM.....
and while using TWRP..I want to goto CWM and press install... and cannot find the CWM.zip (within TWRP)....
Do I have to goback to Odin and reinstall the CWM??? Where would it go??
Put the CWM install zip the same place you would place any *.zip files to install. TWRP should have no issue installing CWM.
thanks Ray... I did do this.. but TWRP doesn't recognize it.. Could it be because there is only the .tar inside the zip?? it's the zip I used for Odin... maybe I should use a different CWM zip.. I know there's quite a few.. thanks....
Yes... Odin files are not usable in recovery.
You need a zip made to use in recovery.

I have rooted Mega 6.3 i9205 with stock rom (XXHUAMH2) and the CWM recovery that i downloaded here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2369998 doesn't work after flashing it with odin and it goes back to the original stock recovery. I tried a lot of ways but to no avail.
Is there anyone here to successfully boot into CWM recovery mode? Thanks. Please help
Did you try this one?

There is one trick you have to do:
After flashing CWM you HAVE TO go to recovery immediately, before booting into ROM. After that you can reboot from CWM and it will be permanent.
If you reboot to system instead, there stock recovery will be automatically reflashed.
I have flashed CWM successfully using this method.
Thank for the replies. Now I got it
I'm sorry if my question sounds stupid. I'm wondering if I could flash recovery file usually provided to fix phones through the custom recovery with odin instead of flashing through custom recovery? I'm talking of flashable files like SuperSU and the likes which are usually done through a custom recovery.
Thanks.
