Nope. Odin flashes tar files, while TWRP flashes zip files.

If you use the official Odin image, I believe so.
If it doesn't, there is an official stock Recovery image that is Odin flashable floating around somewhere.
Yes it will.

What is considered as a stock odin image? Would it just have to be a stock tar. file from the NooB sticky? Is Sammobile the best place to get this file?
Thanks

Yes and yes.
I use sammobile. But you'll have to extract the .tar.md5 file out of the zip you download from Sam. Use 7-zip to do that.

Verizon Galaxy S III SCH 1535 rooted with casual. Got root access but any custom recovery will not identify OS or any data. Even flashed back to 4.0.4. stock and and stock recovery will not work. I think partitions are different now or got changed some how. I have flash 4.1.1 stock image and got stock recovery back but Twrp or CMW will not work. First time I ever had this issue.

Yes several times. Used ez unlock 1.2 & 1.4 flashing all versions of twrp and cwm.
Flash stock ROOTED ROM through Odin. Use EzUnlock 1.2 (1.3-1.4 is broken). Use GooManager to flash TWRP. Done! Fool-proof.

Unzipped it and It just broke down all the files. there is no md5 file. There is all the files. They need to be joined together into one to work.

I need to find stock rooted tar.md5 file as suggested above. I never had so much trouble just trying to get recovery to work. This is a new phone from Asurince. The partitions must be different. I'm not sure what the problem is.

I just don't under stand why this new phone is giving me so much difficulty. I have another GS3 bought back in 2012 and no troubles at all, running Hyperdrive 16 rom works great. I've been trying to get this phone to work for about a week now. I'm not one to give up so easly, but I'm about to turn it in for warrenty. Sorry my spelling sucks. I hate being beat by software. There has to be a way.

Ok good material but a little confusing. So I need to use chome to be able to down load pit file and flash it with oden with reboot, F timer & repartion checked. Than reflash stock rom. Is this correct or I need to do something else?

Hi just a quick question it says in the instruction that I shouldn't use .zip file link to the instruction: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773659, how can I install this recovery-skyrocket-6037.zip?

You can only flash the zip in a custom recovery. If you don't have a custom recovery you need to install it with Odin. You'll need a .tar.md5 recovery file to flash in Odin.

The instruction says to use this version of recovery-skyrocket-6037.zip the only problem is that it is in .zip format, does this recovery has a version of .tar.md5? Or an alternative recovery file that I can install using Odin to install the kikat custom rom? Thanks for the reply and help.

Use this in odin ] This will install twrp custom recovery. Once installed then flash (install) your recovery zip in it.
The recovery.tar.zip needs to be extracted with 7-zip.
EDIT, I edit this post to remove the the dev host link. DO NOT use the dev host file. Use the.tar.zip

Maybe the bootloader in what you are flashing is older than your current bootloader and it's blocking it from flashing, you can't downgrade bootloader on most Samsung devices that have Android 4.3 or newer.
Or maybe you need to flash your stock kernel by itself and then flash the complete firmware.

Download your stock firmware then extract the kernel from it, then flash the extracted kernel. You're looking for the zimage.

You will have to convert the kernel to a .tar or .tar.md5 to flash it with Odin, flash it in the AP slot.

I've been doing a cleanup on it by TWRP, but I ended up deleting everything, including the system. now, Odin no longer recognizes him, kies do not either. What are my options? Can I install Stock Rom through TWRP?
It does not have root, because it does not have root, can I still use TWRP to get to the original stock rom? Does the stock rom need to be in a special format for this?
the rom that I have, has all the files, ap, bl, cp, and csc
Thank you all.
