Have you tried installing GooManager and getting it through there? Otherwise, I installed a CM JB ROM just now on my Skyrocket using TWRP and that worked fine (I had been using CWM up to this point).

I did a simple search of "GT-I9000 CWM Recovery" and was linked to Cyanogenmod's wiki here.. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S:_Full_Update_Guide
:cyclops:

I have tried this, but it's not working. The heindal program is not reading the kernel file.

GT-I9000 CWM Recovery should have worked
tried the step on the recent post and worked for me too.....

You can download ROM Manager from the Play Store. It has an option built in to download and flash CWM.

[Q] Does installing clockworld mod from rom manager need root?

Hi.
Do i need to be rooted to install clockworld mod from rom manager?
Thanks.
You need to nvflash clockwork mod. Look in dev forums. Do not use from manager.

Do I need to be rooted for nvflash?
And also why cant I use rom manager for clockworld mod?

Nvflash is safer. Rom manager will not help if you brick your phone. It is a fake flash. Takes 5 minutes to do it the right way. No you do not need root.
Ok so far I already installed cm7.1, but I couldn't install the kernel because the one I wanted is currently unavailible. Can I install the kernel afterwards when it is availible even though I already flashed a new rom?
Thanks.

You can install a kernel later.

Will it insll the newer versions of COM? Is this compatible with a galaxy s3?
5.8.1.3 is customized to work better w/our phones, dont upgrade or install cwm w/rom manager, you will have problems, do so at your own risk.
You can push menu and tell it that you already have it. Must have the paid version though, I think.
menu, manual flash override, follow on screen instructions.

Flash it with fastboot, of course. There are plenty of posts here and on the net in general that explain how.
or you could use flashimagegui. its a paid app in the play store, & its also posted here by the dev

Or install the ROM Manager app, which can flash CWM for you.

Cwm not working on 2.3.6 properly

Whenever I try to install a zip file in cwm, it says the installation has been aborted. And I know the zip file is a good one. Why isn't it reading my files?
I currently use rom manager and cwm 2.5.1.2 runs by default. At the bottom of the application, it offers to change the cwm edition. it offers 2.5.1.4, 2.5.1.3, and 2.5.1.1. When I select 1.4 or 1.3 it can not be downloaded. For 1.1 it can be, but when I boot into recovery, it only runs 2.5.1.2, which does not load any zip files. Do you think there might be a difference if I tried to download the touch cwm recovery? Or is there an entirely differnt recovery to use? I'd be Willing to pay a few dollars.
Also, when I open cwm, it says there is an update for clockwork mod recovery, but have no clue on how to actually update cwm.
Thanks

Go to ROM Manager and click on the top option. Pick i9000 to update your CWM.
I did try that and every time I do... it says the installation has been aborted. It makes it about 1/3 of the way on the progress bar then it is aborted for some odd reason.
All I want is to be able to flash

Why use Rom Manager at all? You could just use Heimdall to flash an unsecured kernel with CWM built into the one-click package. The first 2 posts in this thread will tell you how:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524081
I have read that maybe flashing a new kernel would solve the cwm issues. Just not sure exactly where to Get a decent one. I have the app sgs kernel flasher to help simplify the process as long as i have the kernel on my phone.
I'm new to the flashing sort, but have gotten used to cwm and don't want to abandon it. I have been success with it on other devices... just not with this infuse on 2.3.6

Entropy's dd kernel should work fine. There's a heimdall one-click for it too.

Is it red Cwm? Was it red? You need to get back to red if not.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I flashed entropy's kernel and cwm is now red. And by red, I'm assuming the letter colors?
It didn't say "error installation aborted" when I booted into cwm, which is a good sign. Haven't tried to flash a rom yet though. Pretty sure it will work now

[Q] Where is the CWM 6.0.4.3 flashable zip???

Dang it, the search is either useless or we don't have a thread for it? I can't find a flashable 6.0.4.3 CWM recovery for the INFUSE 4G, please help.
It's built into the kernel for cm10.2 and cm11, flash one of those and reboot and you'll have a new version of cwm.
