I am a newb so forgive me if I asked a dumb question. I want to install this CMW Touch version on my skyrocket 2. How do I go about doing it? Download zip, flash this new version touch, and reboot?
Download Odin and use correct md5 verified file from author

I already had the old version CWM on my device. Just want to upgrade to this new touch version.
Flash it, exactly what you said in your OP.

Here you go guys. Credit for the base goes to Whitehawkx, luckyduck69, and joedev for KD1, I just took the tar, re-deodexed, and made it CWM Flashable with unters deodex program.
If you have the update.zip (CWM Beta1) on your sd, please upgrade to Beta2.

No, you need the Clockwork mod in order to flash the update. Check out the CWM thread and it will explain how to set it up. Once you have clockwork, all you need to do is go into the Clockwork recovery and select the zip to flash it.

Yes, you do... you place the Update.zip in the root of your SdCard and then boot into Stock Recovery and select Reinstall packages (this will install the update.zip which is CWM Recovery)(U should check the Beta2 Thread for more info)
Oh sorry, I think I misread what he was asking.

I had issues with market and any version of KD1 (Odin/Heimdall or CWM version). Found out my extra 1500mAh battery was causing me headaches. Are you running the stock battery?

+1.. package installers keeps force closing causing a reboot.. launcher restarts and i lose radio singal entirely.. i had to odin back to whites deodexed kd1
FYI
CWM Beta2 semi bricked phones, re Odin it and try Beta3
When I flashed the rom I lost root and my phone would reboot when I hit the power button to lock the screen. Reflashed whitehawks deodexed KD1 will try it again with CWM beta 3.

MD5 sum mismatch? Then either your backup is corrupted or you changed versions of Clockworkmod Recovery in between backing up and restoring. What version are you using?

Did you rename the backup by chance to something with spaces in it and unapproved characters? Backups can't have any spaces and must use A-Z, 0-9, and underscores in the filename.

There were a lot of issues with CWM recovery v6 prior to 6.0.1.0. One of them being backups getting corrupt. There's good chances your backup is corrupt and you'll have to start fresh. You can try installing 6.0.1.0 and see if you're able to restore (although I would doubt) or you can try to restore partially (Go in Advanced Restore).
Either way, make sure to upgrade to the latest version once you are done.
One more thing, have you touched the Clockworkmod folder in any way? Touched the blobs folder? Freed space? Because the way the new Clockworkmod works is incremental, so you don't want to modify anything.
No i didn't tamper with dat folder. Pls can u point me to where i can download the version u are talking about?

Rightmost column.
Personally I do not like the new CWM v6, so I'm using version 5.8.0.2 Touch. Very reliable, but the backups are larger than the new one (but complete instead of incremental)

Update ur cwm recovery or use twrp
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
To be a bit more specific, use at least version 6.0.1x for CWM or 2.2.x for TWRP and you should not have any issues.
And definitely check the MD5 if you downloaded it from GooManager, as my download aborted last night and upon checking the MD5, it did not match. Even though GooManager is supposed to automatically check the MD5 when it downloads anything?

You could always download the zip file instead and flash it through the recovery...
