Which recovery for non kexic boot? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Once and for all, it's so freaking confusing since the bootloader has been unlocked, which recovery do I flash if I use a non kexic Rom, and if I don't want the triple boot?
Thanks in advance.

CWM touch 5.8.X.X (X's because i cant remember the last two numbers) or TWRP. Both of which can be flashed using EZ Recovery.

If you have the blue recovery it sounds like your running ICS... If its distorted, sounds like you need to update your Bootloaders from froyo to Gingerbread bootloaders.. You can do a simple search and find a thread to do this with Odin or Heimdell..
As for your issue... You just need to flash the ICS kernel with Heimdell found here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1629079 - Just put your phone into download mode, open the executable ICS jar file and make sure it says connected and then click flash.. let it do its thing and it should boot just fine.
After I flashed it in download mode the device boots into cwm fine but when I do a normal boot the screen goes black.should I just reflash a rom

Oh..I see. What you're talking about are the rainbows effects.
You have to flash a GB boot loader.
See the op of cm9 or flash my whole uclb3 firmware and then flash again with the boot loader box checked. see the op for details

[Q] i727 Boot Loop.

Hello. Basically I tried installing mohan_kr's ATT-SGH-I727-UCMC1-STOCK-odexed-cwm.zip onto my Skyrocket i727 and it gets as far as half-way into the Rethink Possible screen, freezes, then reboots. Then continues to do that until it just stops and shuts the phone down entirely. Before installing I formatted /system, wiped data/factory reset and wiped the cache partition but it only results in a boot loop. This was all done with ClockworkMod Recovery 5.0.2.6. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I tried searching but the only thing related turned out to be a stuck power button, which this isn't.
If I remember right, the recovery you're using is old as dirt. Am I right?

Ya pretty much haha. My friend, who's had a lot more experience with androids than I have, installed it along with gingerbread so we could just update straight from there with CWM to jelly bean 4.1.2 but now every rom I try gets stuck in a boot loop. Is there a way to upgrade CWM without an active OS?

Grab an updated recovery from here, load it onto your memory card, enter recovery, Install Zip from External SD, flash.
Just download the latest recovery and install using Odin, after that you can try flashing the ROM.. Mohan's ROM will work like a charm...

I need Help Fast, Soon, Asap!!!

Alright, first off ill tell you how I ****ed up. I had a problem with my phone after putting a new rom on it. I didn't get any signal. So I did the smart thing and made an account on here and asked for help, said I should flash a modem and gave me links to it all. The only thing I did wrong was, I PICKED THE WRONG PHONE SECTION. I am using a Skyrocket 1727 and was in the 1777 Section. Now whenever I boot my phone it stays stuck at the first screen that says Samsung and my model info and stuff. I can boot into ClockworkMod still. Can somebody please help me for I have ****ed up royally.
Yea, you f'd up. You could try to push a correct Rom onto your device using adb and see if you can flash that in cwm. Or you could try to odin the stock Rom.

I don't think I explained this correctly, I installed PAC-Man ROM v22.2 perfectly fine but didn't get any signal so I was told I should flash a modem. I flashed the modem and that's when I ran into this problem.

Ok, that's different. You flashed the modem from the i777? Get the i727 ucmc1 radio and flash that in cwm.

Dirty flashing is just doing so without performing a factory reset. You could wipe cache and dalvik just to be safe, though.

Don't do any wipes. Flash the rom then the radio and boot.

It doesn't. ROM manager supports the Blaze now and it has the touch version in there for it.

[Q] Unauthorized System?

Hey guys. I just rooted my phone and I installed TWRP and I went to recovery and it said "Unauthorized System" or something like that. I realized that I didn't unlock the bootloader. But how do I put the stock recovery on my phone?

If on 4.3 update you can't at this time. Your bricked. If on 4.1.2 need to Odin the 4.1.2 tar and start over.
