You need to upgrade your recovery by custom roms by GA to JB to JB 4.3 to KK

You could look for a jelly bean ROM but just in case look for Ice Cream Sandwich ROM first . Then flash it and when you get the jelly bean ROM you're going to need to download the kernel for it

its on the first post of the tread.

Status 7 error just means that their are some asserts in the rom that act up when the proper recovery version isn't being used. If your going to flash Carbon KK rom your Cwm needs to be 6.0.4.8 or 6.0.5.0

That won't work, you need to flash a rom in order to update your recovery as continue to upgrade from different android versions. Try flashing a ics rom and your recovery will go up.

I forgot that that doesn't work for some reason. I'll try to find the stock ROM, if I can. The closest thing may be 2.3.6 though.

You can try it, but I'm not sure if it'll work. Unless you're asking me if you can flash 2.3.6, in which case, the answer is yes. In case something goes wrong, you may want to backup.j
Here is the stock U.S. - 2.3.5 ROM.

You should try booting to recovery and wipeing cache and data... You probably still got some jelly bean stuff foating around. Might want to flash a kernel too. Entrophy's daily driver if U.S; rj's if INT.
Any success because I'm in the same boat you are but just thinking about buying a new one. I feel like it's going to be extremely to complicated to fix.

You have the AT&T version & the boot loader is locked just like the S4. That's why I parked my S4 & bought this International GT-I1952 Mega. I have since got a GT-I9205.
Europe has 3.4.0 kernel.... And what about a CM 10.1 or 10.2 ?

The AT&T has a locked bootloader. Until it is unlocked, we cannot use a custom recovery.

Just follow the instructions on the first page of the CM-thread.
There isn't a stable version (yet), so so don't expect a full working rom without any (minor) bugs if you install CM10.2.
Blazing kernel is for i9100G. If you don't have an i9100G steer well clear of blazing kernel.

Then don't go for Cyanogenmod, because it's still under development. Why don't you flash a Samsung based custom rom? Maybe it's wiser to start with, and if you get a little familiar with all this, you can go for roms like CM.
Edit: make sure you flash the right ones, so for the I9100G!

I'm not really familiar with the I9100G and the available roms, but I assume you can see for yourself (if you read the threads) what people like and don't like about a rom. The choice is up to you, because everybody got his/her own preferences

what version of recovery, meaning there should be a version # 6.0.?.?
or are you getting a status 7? which means your recovery needs to be updated
you have rooted right?
just basic information im asking, but folks need to know
I'm sorry I always forget something when I'm asking a question on here. But yes I am rooted and it says my CWM-RECOVERY version is 5.5.0.4 if I need to update which version would I want or would you suggest going with TWRP? Answer to your other question it is saying (STATUS 7)

6.0.4.3 is the most recent version and you may have to look back a page or so, but in the General forum there is a thread titled CWM 6.0.4.3 touch recovery and there is a flashable file.
TWRP is fine too, but it depends on what else you may flash in the future. the 4.4 roms dont work with TWRP.
there is a TWRP thread also though in Original Development. some had been having problems with latest version, so you may want to go to the last page and read a bit.
but updating your recovery will solve your problem
have fun
id help out a little more, except i am at work and they may frown upon this if they catch me
