I believe EZ recovery allows you to flash a lot of kexec based recoveries, including CMW 6.0.1.0.
I'm curious if using a kexec recovery with CM10 will cause your phone to boot into recovery when you hard reboot, but I'm trying to find out if there's a way to go back to your already flashed CM10 instead of booting the stock ROM.

I'm not sure what you mean. You can do a backup of your current state, or you can flash a new rom from via zip file
If you have recovery your good to go. I do recommend doing a backup before you flash anything though just in case something goes wrong.
Dude everything you need is here

Post #3 is correct...
OK..you are rooted and now have recovery CMW 6.0.1.0 which you flashed with ez recovery (all you need to do with that app, you are done with it). At this point just pick a rom that you want...example SynergyROM. All you would do is download the rom and place it on your SD card...I would recommend the extSDCard.
Boot your device into recovery by holding the buttons to do it or just open EZ recovery and hit button 'boot recovery' option only. Find the zip on ext card and that is it...
Always do a backup first which you can do in recovery before flashing the new rom and save that to your ext sdcard also which is an option in 6.0.1.0 after backup then flash new rom
Thank you all for the info

Do we even use Rom Mgr? I think this where I'm making mistakes.
You don't need to use Rom Manager. You have the EZ recovery that flashes a recovery. Rom manager does the exact same thing but EZ recovery makes it simple. Just do what post 3 says and you'll be fine. I just started using EZ recovery 3 days ago and I've already flashed a recovery and a custom kernel. The EZ recovery is only foe flashing recoveries...don't ever try to flash a custom Kernel through it. You can flash custom kernels through CWM Recovery the same way you flash custom rooms, but you need a recovery that supports kexec which would be CWM 6..which is what you have.

Ok, thanks. Been having problems and I think it's because I've involved Rom Mgr
is there a way to install this without going the kexec rout sense we have a unlocked bootloader now?
is it easy to flash it if you go back to rooted stock and then unlock your phone?
Just use ROM manager or even better, the ez recovery app to flash regular, touch or twrp recovery. Non kexic should use the non-touch 6.0.1.0

I rooted my phone with the quick root tool from noxious Nina. I want to flash a new kernel so overclocking is capable. can I just install and run the vzw ez unlock from the play store or do I have to completely flash a new Rom and all on my phone? any help would be appreciated. thanks.
The EZ unlock tool works great!!! Just make sure you flash the correct kernel.... AOSP kernel for AOSP base ROMs and a stock/touchwiz kernel for stock/touchwiz ROMs. Most of the ROMs floating around have a kernel built in specific to that ROM. Happy flashing and make a nandroid before anything!!!!

I have everything backed up with TB. do you know of a good stable stock Rom kernel that can be overclocked.
Synergy is stable and good. I have been running that since the beginning. I am gonna jump to ParanoidAndroid this weekend since most of the bugs have been worked out. You can search around for the most compatible OC apps and methods. I normally leave things be unless I need to change them.

Ok soooooooooooo I have another question. I'm looking at flashing clean kernel. I want to use vzw ez recovery. Has any one done just a kernel with this app and how did you do it. Just select your image and click flash or reboot recovery. I have done research on this but I have yet to find a solid answer on how to do it.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I normally just reboot to CWM and flash away.... I don't use EZ for anything other than choosing recovery and unlocking the bootloader. If you're not on a custom ROM you can use EZ to boot into recovery after flashing the recovery of your choice.

So if I use ez and flash into COM 6.0 then I can go into download mode with vol up home and power then just boot to any Rom that way?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I don't know if it still applies but you aren't supposed to flash kernels with ez recovery.. I did that once and got stuck in a boot loop. That should be used for recoveries only. Use that to flash cwm and go to where you downloaded your kernel..most likely your download folder and flash it. But as stated before make sure your kernel applies to your ROMs tw=tw aosp = aosp no crossing. I personally still use cwm 6 although that was a recovery for kexec methods..it can still be used...for flashing ROMs make sure you know if you have to wipe data and cache as well. You can get into some nasty boot loops and bricks if you don't. I personally do a nandroid and then wipe everhthing then flash a new ROM...just a force of habit. I hope this helps..hit the thanks button if this helps you at all.

Also to add to your question..you flash ROMs from cwm recovery. Download mode is used for Odin to flash stock ROMs and stock rooted ROMs. To boot into cwm from an off state its power volume up and home at the same time. From there back up using the backup option and once that is complete wipe data/wipe cache then go to install zip from SD card or ext SD card wherever you downloaded the new rom and flash that and don't panic if your phone doesn't boot up right away (hanging at the boot animation screen) the first boot always takes the longest.

Boot into RECOVERY and wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and Flash it.

Flash touch over regular cwm via ez recovery. It's fine. Don't use odin to flash recovery.
Thanks! Did that and it worked!

FYI...it would be better if you ran CWM 6.0.1.0 instead of CWM Touch...ive had better results with the newer version, if you're interested in trying it out.
I actually used CMW to flash 6.0.1.2 over 6.0.1.0 as opposed to using EZ recovery. I used EZ Recovery to get 6.0.1.0 on the phone in the first place. I do this because the first S3 I tried to use the custom option in EZ Recovery on was soft bricked upon flash completion.

Agreed, just use the CWM ROM Manager app to flash on the most current 6.0.1.2. You can also flash most recent touch recovery through the app as well, that option is at the bottom. I use the touch while I am using ICS roms, but when I start playing with JB developments, I flash back to 6.0.1.2 standard recovery. Though I have not experienced any issues with touch and JB, the developers warn in bold to not use it with JB roms. CWM is updated more frequently than the EZ recovery app, and why use an outside source to flash CWM anyways? EZ recovery is good to start out with because of its different recovery options, but ultimately is not better that the actual recovery source app CWM.
I currently have a stock, rooted, unlocked SGS3 with CWM Ver 6.0.1.2. I also have EZ Recovery installed. I'm curious about TWRP, can I install it and have multiple recoveries or are the recoveries a one at a time deal?
Thanks
There one at a time. Just flash one and test it out. Don't like it, flash another. Currently I'm enjoying CWM.

You can flash whatever recovery you want with either rom manager or ez recovery. I like the touch version of cwm recovery.
Also if you have a custom recovery you cannot receive OTA updates

If I flash TWRP, will it overwrite my current CWM? Or do I need to remove it first? Also, could I flash it from within CWM or would that break something?
Thanks

No, you can install CWM using Rom manager. You can install TWRP using GooManager (tap Menu, then install Openscriptrecovery) You can also install either through EZ Recovery if you have the img file.
