Yes i read some reports of users who used it successfully to update cwm
But when i tried it it did not overwrite my old recovery
So you could try it
If no result then use Odin and if you are afraid about counter increase, use triangle away app,will reset counter to zero as if no odin used (worked fine for me)

I already updated my galaxy tab 2 GT-P3100 to jellybean update(leaked and got from XDA-developers.com ) but now I am thinking to update CWM update to this device and want to extend ROM and root the device....
I got a CWM update by Odin and many other options from the net and XDA-developers But That was old and was a CWM update for ICS 4.0.3/4 ...But I already updated it to JellyBean 4.1.1 so I think that old update will not work...

[Completed] Unbricking Galaxy S2

Hey XDA Devs,
I have an old S2 on which I was trying to downgrade Android from CM12.1 to CM11.
CM12.1 had somehow installed it's own recovery console; using which I couldn't have flashed CM11, so for installing CM11 I tried to flash "CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100" using ODIN 1.85.
The flash completed successfully but then my phone died. It doesn't even get into download mode or recovery mode anymore.
Also, while installing CWM, I flashed the PIT file "omap4_all_20110627_emmc.pit" as it was instructed on http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/general/how-to-root-install-cwm-recovery-flash-t1814801.
Is there any way to revive my phone?
I've already tried jig, even that doesn't work.
I need to get some data from my phone. Even if that's possible somehow?
Thanks,
- V

marshmallow rom available for J700H not J700F
So what to do now?
If nothing passed during the flash you can try to flash the last official stock firmware you had on your phone as long as nothing has updated to the marshmallow version before you tried to update if you was on lollipop before this then try to reflash the last official stock firmware you had already installed. The bootloader isnt locked or it wouldnt of made your knox counter 1 from 0. If odin flashing stock doesnt work then you need to use smart switch to do a emergency recovery. Im use to kies recovery but it says smart switch on your screen shot.
That official stock rom is also not flashing after i flashed a5 rom...after installing the a5 rom all these problems are arising. I was not being able to come back to the stock rom after the installation of the a5 rom long back ago.
Pls anybody give any solution...

Use smart switch then. This is why you only flash stuff made for your phone.. flashing roms for other phones will brick you. Your lucky your even able to restore it should be hard bricked.
Hi
I faced the same problem recently , it happens coz u are trying to downgrade to a lower version of bootloader , if you have a backup restore it without checking (efs/modem) or make a flashable zip of ur original stock rom without sboot...cm...modem.bin files
The easy solution is to flash russian lp via odin
