Get EzRecovery from the play store. Pretty much self explanatory from there after you have downloaded the latest recovery img file.

If you downloaded from the CWM website, it downloads as an img file not a zip. If its an img file, yes it will work.

I wemt to the website and wasn't able to dl the img file... Clicked on the Verizon SGS3 version and it showed a whole bunch of code... Nothing dl into my phone... Sorry for being a noob but how am I to transfer that code on my phone???

Shouldn't be seeing code, just a lot of devices and their CWM download links. I just downloaded it using Chrome, so try using Chrome, Dolphin, or another browser then find the VZW S3:

if you "long press" in dolphin, it'll give you an option to "Save Link." For some reason, sometimes, it just opens the file in html and displays it on the webpage and sometimes it doesn't.

Download to your computer first, thrn copy it to your internal sd card.
It's just of those things.
I'm planning my escape from the digital world!
The stock phone browser normally fails at downloading zip files - unless there is an app on the phone that associates itself with them. For instance, zArchiver is an app that can handle zip files. Since I have it on my phone, I am able to download zip files with the stock browser. Another option to download on the phone is to use a third party browser like Dolphin.

Easy flashable Google Now zip now available for ics roms

I wanted to share this with everyone, I tried it on eriks miui and it works great. Make sure you fix permissions in recovery after flashing.

Flashing puts the files where they belong installing attempts to place the application in data which offs not the right place for Google Now

I installed it, opened it once and totally forgot about it. It drains battery a lot and I can't find any use at the moment. I will do some research.

You can dictate text messages, tell it to play any artist or song from your music collection, ask it the whether, to search stuff for you. I like the voice activated music more than anything for driving.

To any one else using, it says it's supposed to wake up when you say GOOGLE at one of the screens but can't seem to get it to do it? anyone else been able to get this feature to work?

Saying GOOGLE has worked for me in the past. You have to have hot word detection turned on in the settings. I have not used it recently, but it is definitely a sweet app.

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?

Man,
My questions must be so stupid that I can't even get someone to respond!
When trying to flash certain things using CWM, I am prompted to install an “untrusted zip"...
Has anyone experienced this and is it safe to install untrusted ???

Is whatever you're flashing stated as compatible with your device/made for your device? Have you tried flashing with a different recovery (If available)?
I have Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 and was trying to flash the nexus 4 boot animation..
This happened a few days ago when I tried to flash some of the android 4.2 system dump.
Both times it says “ install untrusted zip". I just tried to toggle verification and that did not help.
Thanks for helping

You might as well just make a backup and then flash .

No. It's not safe to run untrusted.zip. It may be contained with viruses and may screw up your phone or PC. Only run files with actual names because you don't know if it's good or bad. It can crash your phone, not to mention your PC.

"Untrusted" is not the file name. The recovery is just stating that the file is "untrusted" since its not official from the manufacturer.
Hopefully your phone is rooted, if it's not I can't help ... make sure you have an unlocked bootloader and install Rom Toolkit from Google Play. Rom Toolkit has a bunch of boot animations for free, including the nexus 4 animation. Also, it will install these from the app itself - much easier than doing it in CWR.

Hey rookie, welcome to xda!
While I've got your attention..
Can you guys help me with something else??
I'm running jellywiz RLS12, yesterday I flashed a 4.2MOD pack over jellywiz. After flashing it, I realized I didn't want it. I tried to research how to “unflash" stuff but was unsuccessful, ended up having to do a factory reset and reinstall jellywiz.
Any pointers on how to do this more effectively??
Thank you!
