You have to root your phone first so u can get cwm working on ur phone. Search on google how to root

You need to flash CWM recovery or a kernel bundling it through Odin.
Btw, "any rom" is not correct; several are installed through Odin (mostly the stock ones)

[Q] HELP / ASSIST - Unble to reboot in CWM Recovery

Hi All,
I am having trouble with Galaxy S2. Months ago I rooted my phone, installed cwm and installed a ROM into it. Now they have released a new version of the ROM which I want to install it.
This is the ROM:
http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-roms/resurrection-ics-rom-v2-0-for-galaxy-s2-i9100-best-ics-rom/
however, I am unable to boot into CWM Recovery.
If I do the POWER+VOLUP+HOME button its going directly to Android Recovery
I tried opening the CWM Manager, and I get this prompted:
"This version of CWM Manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. It appears you are running a different kernel. Various features have been disabled"
I remember Flashing a Kernel to remove the Triangle Logo on the Loading Part.
So how can I flash the Kernel back? And install the newest updated ROM
Flash cf-root first it seems that you're not rooted.

Flashing the original kernel to remove the yellow triangle also takes you back to stock 3e recovery. You are still rooted though. Reflash the unsecure kernel through cwm manager or if that doesnt work, download ktool from google play and reflash from there.
This will give you CWM recovery without increasing binary flash counter. Reboot into recovery and do full wipe, before flashing new firmware.

flash the CF-root kernel using odin or siyah kernel(for me siyah is much smoother) and everything should be fine, also use triangle away to remove the triangle (u can get in google play for donation to the dev or on XDA for free)

Hey!
I currently got CM 7 (Android 2.3.7) on my S2.
But I got some problems now, it's in boot loop, with no recovery and NO root!
I have no idea what do to now...
When I get into download mode it says the following:'
ODIN MODE

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL
So, here's the breakdown:
I got no root or recovery
I'm not experienced in S2 rooting, this phone is my friend's.
Boot loop, when I boot its still the Cyanogenmod boot logo.

There is a simple method of rooting using supersu and cwm files.
U can flash this files from stock recovery.
Once u install this files u will ve cwm recovery. Then factory reset n wipe cache n dalvik cache.
Your os will load out of boot loop.
Surely it will work.
Follow instructions carefully.
Just boot phone into download mode and flash Siyah kernel via odin and then you will have recovery and root, simple.

[Q] Soft Bricked my GT-I9300/No ClockworkMod-Recovery

Hello everyone,
I recently bought the international version GT-I9300 simlock free running android 4.1.2 build JZ054K I9300 00XXELL4 . I researched how to root my device and I successfully did so using the Samsung GS3 Toolkit v7.0 selecting the 4.1.2 build JZ054k I9300 ELLA. I then proceeded to download ROM Manager to use the application to download the stable 9.1.0 Cyanogenmod from my internal memory where I had saved the document. This is when things started going bad. I did not wipe data/factory reset the device before I started uploading the costumROM. I am now in a boot loop where I constantly see the facy boot animation of CM 9.1.0. no matter what I do. I have entered system recovery only to find that I have access only to the standard android system recovery <3e>. I tried to wipe data/factory reset and to restore my device using a stock samsung file that I reflashed using Odin 3.0.7, to no avail. Many different reflash attempt later, including the original 9.1.0. cyanogenmod file and a nightly build version 10.1, I ran out of inspiration. I would be very grateful for any suggestion to what to do. Still have access to download and recovery mode however not with ClockworkMod-Recovery.
TL;DR:
I soft bricked my I9300 as I am in a boot loop with CM 9.1.0 . Only have access to download mode and system recovery <3e>. What do?
Thanks in advance
Download stock i9300XXELLA from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9300&pcode=BTU&os=1&type=1#firmware you will need to register to download the file
Boot into recovery and do a factory reset then boot into download mode and install via Odin,
The root using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273 zip is in post 3
The use this for recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943592 instead of CWM
Thanks a lot for such a quick reply. I'm going to try it out immediately.

Unable to install custome recovery through odin on galaxy grand prime[SM-G530H]

Hi guys i cant install a custome recovery in my samsung galaxy grand prime sm-g530h with odin(versions 3.0.7, 3.0.9, 3.10.7) android 5.0.2, baseband G530HXXU2BOK3, kernel version3.10.49-1006642, im using windows 8.0 .
when a tried to install a custome recovery in order to install root and a custom rom i used odin 3.10.7 and all went smooth no errors in odin but when my device reboot and i tested if the custome recovery it did installed the stock recovery from android <3e> appeared, and i tried to install it with the stock recovery but it semms that it only works for samsung signed packages, itried to install differents recoverys but none of them installed.
If anyone can help me a will apreciate it from the bottom of my hearth
Thanks
Install the recovery again using Odin, this time after installation let the phone boot completely....then restart it into recovery.
The same happened with me too.
We just need to be patient xD
Hope it helps.
The trick is to reboot to recovery BEFORE it boots into the OS, otherwise there is a script that will rewrite the stock recovery back to the phone. Once you flash a rom or SuperSU zip, it will disable the script and allow TWRP to remain.

No Rom booting, no twrp access ... need help !

Hello,
I have a samsung alpha from korea (G850S) and I tried to install the custom rom ResurrectionRemix so I rooted my phone using odin 3 and CF auto root, then I have installed twrp using flashify app and finally installed the rom.
The rom was apparently not stable because it has booted the first time but when I rebooted my phone it was stuck on samsung alpha logo, so I decided to install Jumbo rom.
I made a wipe (system, data ...) and install it using trwp. The problem is the instalation failed and now I have no rom and I can access to trwp anymore
I only have access to download mode and android system recovery <3e>, I have tried to instal trwp again using odin but when I press vol up+home+power I have the samsung alpha logo
With android system recovery I can have adb acess but I dont know what to do.
Could you help me ? Thank you
This happened to me with my g850f. Make official rom installation with odin. Use cf auto root again BUT you must install twrp 3.0.0.0 for higher android versions like lollipop or marsmallow. You can find twrp 3.0.0.0 or higher versions by searching xda forum. After rooting your phone you can install twrp with flashfy. You can find it in play store. Good luck
Sorry for bad english
