I'm curious if anyone else is or has experienced issues with ClockworkMod Recovery 5.8.1.8?
When I boot to recovery I see, CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4
I've flashed CWM 5.8.1.8 and then I see the version change but, if I reboot the phone or reboot recovery it reverts back to v5.5.0.4....
Any tips, tricks, or ideas?

hhmm..., Actually as I stated I'm using CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4...
While it's an assumption, CWM stands for ClockWorkMod?

No. Short answer, No.
Long answer, No, I just posted a picture of what i'm using. (did you see it?)
I'm rebooting into ClockworkMod recovery.
I then select install zip from sdcard
I then select choose zip from internal sdcard
and select the appropriate .zip file.
then recovery reboots into v5.8.1.8.
I'm not trying to use any app within the running OS to flash the newer version.
Is that clearer?

Okay that helps me out now that you finally answered my question, so you're trying to flash a newer version of cwm from the older version of it? Or are you flashing a rom too, I never worry about flashing cwm as all roms/kernels have a ones packaged in I feel it's unnecessary

yep, that's all I'm trying to do.
I've done the same thing to upgrade CWM on my old Atrix. So I'm not sure why it isn't working this time... Can't imagine the process would have changed.
I moved the .zip file to the external sd card and flashed it but that still didnt work. it didn't work when i tried to flash it with odin either.

This isn't an Atrix and recovery on the GS2 is not like any other phone. You can flash that zip all day long its not going to do a thing.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that cwm is baked into the kernel. Without changing to a kernel with the new CWM, it will always come back to whatever the kernel you are running has baked into it.

Use the Siyah kernel and it has the touch clockworkmod recovery baked in. The others above are correct, it is something that has to be changed in the kernel. When the first touch recovery came out I too tried it the way you did by flashing it in regular cwm. Then you will see and can use it. BUT it does not stick because it has to he added into tue kernel.

It can he used the same way basically with using the buttons for volume +/- and power to select. Or clicking on whatever option, or sliding your finger up or down to the selections and double tapping to select. It is kind of a cool featute bit not that big of a deal. I am using my own personal made version that is basically the same as hos rom and you can use the siyah kernel that came/comes with it and it has the touch version of cwm so you can try it out. I dont usually spend much time while in cwm except to flash things. So it is not a huge deal or deal breaker either way.

What is your end goal? You can't really flash cwm because it's built into the kernel.
If you're trying to go back to a Samsung based rom, you *NEED* yo Odin back to jfd and start from there (there is no other way, it must be Odin/heimdall and jfd).
If you're trying to flash to miui or a later nightly, "flash" vibrantmtd, or better yet, flash the rom by hand in recovery.

People suggest rom manager all the time, but really it's just a gui to the recovery, with the ability to download roms.
Yeah, just flash while in recovery.

That makes sense. There were two versions of 2.6.11. The first one was red and worked fine. The second "purple" one was giving recovery errors, like the ones you mentioned. Did you just upgrade to 2.6.11?
Try flashing this version of 2.6.11, if you're able to flash.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21864326&postcount=1068
Otherwise, get the 2.6.12 tar file from the OP in that thread, or get any "tar" version of Siyah from Gokhanmoral's website (other than 2.6.11) and flash it through ODIN.
Hey thanks for the tips, but for some odd reason the purple recovery began working

It runs fine when i flash a 4.1.1 version with the custom boot animations but shows a blank screen on flashing the latest 4.1.2 AOKP, paranoidandroid or supernexus. Please Help.

I'm not sure what u are asking, but it seems like you're confused. 4.0.x is ICS. so flash an ICS kernel. 4.1.x is jellybean. So flash a jellybean kernel. If one kernel doesn't do what u want, try another. All of this information is already available here and in the development threads.
Flash AOKP and Gapps and thats it. Make sure to factory reset and wipe extweaks and init.d scripts in kernel specific settings and then reboot.

Well firstly, you shouldnt be double posting/bumping your thread, You have an edit button if you need to add anything.
Second, You have no need to ask this question as its already been covered a million times over in all the other topics about this, please use search before creating topics. That is XDA rule number 1.
Third, The answer to your question is no. Once you install custom kernel your fine and not affected by the bug.

Philz kernel has a broken recovery which doesn't let you flash AOSP ROMs... It gives the status 7 error and aborts installation.
You may flash Siyah kernel from www.gokhanmoral.com. Download the Odin version (.tar file) and flash it.

Yes. To superbrick, 3 criteria must be met (check detailed explanation of each by entropy512 who is a kernel developer and elite recognised developer). One of them is that you must have the dangerous emmc chip. I believe what gotbrickbug does is check if you have that chip or not.
But, being on a safe kernel (custom ones are more reliable than Samsung ones unfortunately in this regard since 4.0.4), the command mmc_cap_erase is disabled which makes sure that the emmc chip doesn't get wiped.
So, being on a safe kernel even if gotbrickbug gives the danger message will keep you safe
If I'm wrong or anything, please correct me I actually don't know much about this.

No, the app looks at the chip, not the kernel. If your phone has a defective chip, no matter which kernel you are on (safe or dangerous), it will always show dangerous.

Hello, I have recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 SGH-I777 running Official 4.0.4. I used a one-click method to root the phone(yes, root is working), and now i am having trouble finding a flashable kernel that has a custom recovery baked inside. I found siyah kernel, and many other kernels, but they only come in downloadable .zip files. I cannot flash these because i do not have a custom recovery to flash the .zip from and Odin doesn't flash zips. I read on another thread to rename the zImage file and put .tar at the end and to flash through Odin, but this didn't work.
Are there any kernels that would work for my phone that i can find in a .tar file to flash through Odin? or is there another way to get a custom recovery onto my rooted S2 so i can flash ROMs?
Thank you for your time.

I know it will be easy to tell once I get feedback from whoever I call, and easy to fix by flashing the opposite, but just trying to save time. Thanks in advance.

If you're just going straight to jellybam then it doesn't matter, since when you flash the rom it will flash it's own kernel with it.

One more question to you Ninja, when downloading Siyah kernel, v4.3.3, is it best to download with or without micswap if i am planning on flashing jellybam? I know it will be easy to tell once I get feedback from whoever I call, and easy to fix by flashing the opposite, but just trying to save time. Thanks in advance.

Micswap for JellyBam. Without is only for ROMs built from i777 bases.
