Here is the link for the tut that I follow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759541&highlight=how+to
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

You can extract the recovery.img file from the zip and use the Android Flasher app. This will only work if you have S-OFF or an unlocked HBOOT.

What to select in flasher options? Recovery? To be more specific, i want to root my phone, can you tell me step by step pls?
I've probably misunderstood this but if you're looking to root then why not just use gingerbreak?

That is just an alternative to ClockworkMod recovery. Also I misunderstood your original question about the su-3.0 zip file.
You need to flash that type of zip file using a custom recovery such as CWM or EXT4. The Android Flasher is for flashing image files to a device, not zip files.
As said above, you need s off or unlocked hboot (via htcdev) to flash the recovery.img (out of clockwork mod or 4ext zip file) using android flasher.
Then boot into recovery and install zip from sd card and select the SU zip file, once installed you have superuser and are rooted

If you are trying to flash 6.01.0 then select the "Recovery", then select CWM 6.0.1.0 and then flash. You don't need to select custom unless you are trying to flash something else.

remove .md5 or may be you are searching it in wrong folder
put the twrp on desktop and then open odin and chose from desktop
its not that difficult

how could you flash tar file in cwm ????
we are trying to change cwm recovery to twrp recovery
are you getting this ???
in twrp recovery there is no such problem as bootloop etc
so just flash twrp through odin
and then flash whatever you want to flash through twrp

If you already installed it from odin then forget, otherwise if you want to install TWRP from CWM. I can help you to make flash able zip. And it will work also. Because I did it so many times.
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.

Flash stock ROOTED ROM through Odin. Use EzUnlock 1.2 (1.3-1.4 is broken). Use GooManager to flash TWRP. Done! Fool-proof.

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?
