How to install CWM on stock kj6? - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Does anyone know how to install CWM on stock kj6? I don't want to use the custom kernel. Tried copying the recovery and update.zip but no go. Getting the signature error. Not sure what to try next.

Don't think you can have clockwork mod without a modded kernel on gingerbread.

Krylons method was for froyo. Your gonna have to go with the modded kernel to get cwm.

It's not kj6.
Also, my last attempt to use one of these kernels wasn't very successful. Had a couple of little glitches here and there and it drove me nuts.
Now the phone works perfectly on a rooted stock kj6 with junk removed, so I don't feel like risking it, especially not having CWM to backup the stock config.

I am also on stock Gingerbread, rooted, and happy with it. I'd like to install CWM *before* I start mucking about with my ROMs. ROM Manager claims to support it, but it didn't list my phone in its detected devices and then I saw here that one shouldn't use it anyway so I uninstalled it.
So what's the easiest/noobiest way to install CWM on my T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4g 2.3.6 rooted?

Heindall.... With the the kj6 kernel in the development forum.

How about you develop a new kernel? All we got is drhonks kj1 and bhundven kj6, both customs... Wait... How you plan to get cwm if you dont "custom" a kernel? Interesting, huh?
You don't need cwm to have an easy way of fixing roms if anything goes wrong, theres always odin and heimdall.

Man you're an arrogant dude. People ask for some help and you tell them to dev a new kernel! Put you're money where your mouth is.
As for the OP I think you get the idea. It's either custom or no go.

[Q] Flashing a new gingerbread rom over previous gingerbread.

So I am on the original KF1 Rom right now(I know, I am falling behind). I want to flash the new DevilBread rom. Here is my question: I will need to Odin back to Froyo in order to use CWM to install DevilBread. Will this install the Froyo bootloaders again, or am I OK to just flash DevilBread right after without doing anything?
Thanks!
I think you would be good to go straight away unless you use a completely stock froyo rom but with something like deodexed kd1 I think you would be good

Cool. Exactly the Rom that I flashed to in order to get CWM. It appears to be working perfectly fine so far.
if you are going to use kd1, use dr honks, not whitehawks. it has a faulty system partition

Where did you get these awesome tools man? You never say it in your video and I've been googling for hours now...
Better question, who the heck does this process anymore?
There are tons of kernels that can just be flashed with a kernel flasher, or odin that give you cwm instantly

I've been using the 3e recovery process I am not sure of another way without putting the recover file in system/bin.
I have been needing this all day today. Thank you!
Great for those who stock, want to install a cwm packaged rom, and don't want to have to flash a completely different rom solely to get cwm.

[Q] Need CWM for sgs4g 2.3.6 official.

Has anybody got a version of CWM that will work on the sgs4g? I accidentally flashed the galaxy s CWM from rom manager before finding this forum. Nothing has changed on the phone, except if i boot into CWM recovery i always get verification errors.
Also, are there any ROMs for the sgs4g that is running 2.3.6?
Thanks to anybody who can help.
Get rid of ROM Manager. I've read it doesn't work well on this phone. Check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380331 for a 2.3.6 ROM with the latest CWM/root/voodoo lagfix.

You should try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422824
When it is time to choose a package pick the one that includes the beta 2d kernel from the Kj6 collection. Learning the one click method will also give you every thing you need should you make a mistake and need to recover from a soft brick

That is a link to a cwm flashable kernel.
Without cwm he will have no luck installing it.

It's Heimdall installable, too, which is how I did it. I'm trying to leverage Heimdall more these days in an attempt to learn it better.

This may just be a noob question and I hope I'm posting in the right place. I'm running 2.3.6 as well and want to flash Valhalla Final onto my device. The instructions say you must have pre-installed kernel with clockwork recovery. Do I need to use Heimdall and load a kernel with clockwork recovery or is there another way to get the CWM? I am still learning the basics of all this stuff. Forgive my ignorance.

Since you're already on GB (2.3.6) you can do this, if you're not rooted follow:

Save the wiki to your bookmarks. We're updating it constantly so you'll always get the most up to date info from there. Also spread the word when other users need help, point them to the proper section in the wiki .
Thanks to everyone for their insight. My sgs4g is no more now. Luckily, I learned a lot about flashing with it before it died. Including unbricking. Still haven't gotten heimdall to work. But I think I have been trying to run the regular exe instead of the front end. We'll see. Hopefully I get paid this week to cut on the internet again. Killing me here.

so, you stopped the zeus development?
ok guys little help please, been away from infuse scene a while since i got my skyrocket, my wife inherited my infuse so reverted from zues back to stock for her, well no she wants to be rooted etc.... sooo trying to refresh a little, if she is on stock leak lb3 and wants to go to dmans version i think i have to install cwm kernel via odin, which cant seem to find, install rom via cwm, then flash stock kernel via sgs kernel flasher to get all video working. Is this correct, if so could someone point me to the odin flashable kernel? please and thanks

Flashoholics!!

Just trying to be helpful here, here is a faster way to get from stock one-click to JB goodness.....
After you flash to stock with antonx kernel reboot into recovery and flash bhundvens blastoff kernel, reboot recovery, now you should be in blue 5.0.2.8....flash the newest cm9, it will reboot automatically into recovery for you to flash a second time, but don't, instead flash a JB Rom, (I flashed chaos from dao) once it rebooted into recovery...jellybean recovery, I flashed the Rom plus gapps. Rom booted just fine.
So.....save a little time from completely flashing the whole rom, waiting for it to boot and rebooting into recovery just to do it again till you get where you want.....cheers
hopefully it saves you some time
************************just like everyone else says "I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE"*****************
just one-click back and start over hee hee!!!!
If you're saying flashing a kernel with CWM 5.x and then flashing a JB ROM is faster, we all know that already.
You are not flashing the kernel first technically. What you are doing is converting the file system.
However I thought all the JB roms had the mtd conversion script included. If they dont I would ask the person that ported them to update it with that script. There should never be a reason to flash to ics then jb.

Getting back to stock and rooting are totally different subjects and shouldn't be asked in ROM threads anyways. Flashing the ROM are always in the OP.
I understand..... Thanks. You sure learned a lot since these posts....

If you go back to our early JB ROMs
It was said to flash cm 9 or be on
a ICS ROM first if coming from GB.
Its said to be different now...
I still don't trust it..out of habit and
because it has always worked..
If I one-click back to stock I always
flash cm9 first then flash JB.
