I wanted to update my S3 Neo GT-I9300I to Lollipop which is only possible if I have CWM installed in the phone. But I am not able to install cwm recovery in my phone. I tried TWRP recovery as well but it didn't work. Please help.

Ok i flashed my S2 to XXKG1 then flashed with CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1-CWM4.tar
I then flashed with GT-I9100_ClockworkMod-Recovery_4.0.1.4.tar
I have CWM app and SuperUser App and Rom Manager Premium.
I backed up my ROM fine using CWM app. I downloaded CyanogenMod from Rom Manager. Picked Install from SD. my phone askes me to backup and clear cach, when the phone reboots it just reboots to android with a (/!\ android man) Image. If i press vol key the menu will appear clockworkmod recovery v4.0.1.4 (its orange).
error:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verification failed

Stop using rom manager, if you installed the cf-root kernel just reboot into recovery and install the zip.
As stated, got into recovery at boot and select install from sd, not via rom manager.....

I was trying to install CWM for Galaxy Y(via .zip) which was successful but whenever I boots into recovery mode it boots to stock recovery rather than CWM. I have tried installing two CWM .zip files but both show same result.
P.S Can I flash Galaxy Gio's CWM on Galaxy Y?

Click to expand...

why are you repeating the question it is already answered in your last post
anyways there are two types of cwm
temporary cwm - you have to flash it from stock recovery to get cwm ( the one you are using now)
permenant cwm - which replaces stock recovery
to get a permanent cwm you have to install a kernel which has an integrated cwm with it
Use only Galaxy y's CWM
ClockWorkMod Recovery is temperory if you flash it via stock.
Permanent CWM comes with the kernel. So flash a kernel that has CWM replacing stock recovery.
DONT FLASH CWM THAT WAS NOT MADE FOR YOUR DEVICE.
Dont use CWM of Galaxy Gio.
P.S. Dont repeat questions and spam the forum.
So today I was able to root my device , then I needed to install a costum recovery I grabbed "ROM MANAGER" From Play store , installed CWM 6.0.4.4 and booted to recovery and then a message appeared " No command " What can I do???
Stop using rom manager. Use flashify or adb to install recover

My Galaxy y duos is bricked...
I tried flashing it with odin n proper frimware...but its showing
"Mount System error"
Can't flash via CWM...same error... when i tried to mount the system through it....
Can it be unbricked any how????
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app
either use a stock firmware wipe pack or format system data cache in recovery and see if you can mount them
you can make your own wipe pack with splitfus2 - link in my sig - get firmware from sammobile
also note questions should go in question and answer section and there is a thread there for bricked phones
Okay sorry for that...
You can delete this post from here...

I deleted some knox files from my gt i9505 and then my phone wouldnt boot up. It would get stuck on samsung logo. When i tried to restore a nandroid backup it said md5 mismatch. Btw i did rename thr backup and afterwards i heard this could cause problems. Then i went to the settings of philz recovery and unchecked the option where the recovery checks the md5 sum. After that i decided to try to restore again with the md5 thing off. It began to restore but then it said error restoring /system or something like that.
I managed to get my phone working again by flashing stock firmware. So how can i fix that nandroid backup?

Have you tried restoring the backup again after changing to stock?
Maybe try with a different recovery if it is compatible
No

And no i haven't tried a different recovery. I don't think it will wo t k because of the md5 problem.

Why not try? What do you have to lose? You can always flash philz recovery back
The only other recoveries i know of is cwm. I doubt it will work because the nandroid file is in cwm format.
I still don't understand why after i skipped the step where it checks the md5 and when it finally began to restore i got the error message "error restoring /system".

There is also twrp recovery. Maybe the backup got corrupted.
I used to have cwm recovery on my old device. Never had any problems with it. Since I got my S4 I'm using twrp which also seems to work without a problem. Twrp is touch based so no worries about tedious button mashing to navigate
Maybe switch to one of those as they seem to be the most popular (which also means they have better support) and they work on pretty much any device.
Okay i might switch to twrp but i wont be able to restore that nandroid backup using twrp.

Try this
It's for cwm. But since your recovery is based on cwm, it should work. Alternatively you could flash cwm and try it after that guide.
If this doesn't work then do some more searching. Just google "md5 mismatch" it should give you something to work with and, hopefully, a solution.
just reflash your rom, i had this too and what helped was a clean install
