and easier way to put your phone into download mode is by
Turning of your phone andpressing the camera button
and connecting the USB cable. should go to download mode (its how I did it)

artifintel here with the best news any owner of a Samsung Admire could hear, the venerable ClockworkMod recovery has been ported to work on this device! A big thanks goes out to ACS developers mysteryemotionz, shabbypenguin and SuigintouLain. Without these guys none of this would be possible. I know you guys and girls are chomping at the bit, so let’s get this out of the way:​
In no way is ACS, any said developers herein or me, for that matter, are responsible for any damage and/or bricking your device. Do your own research and reading before attempting any modifications! I flashed this recovery to all 3 of my admires in under 10 minutes, this procedure works in Windows 7, any failure is from not reading and following directions! Let’s do this….
1. Download ODIN >>>HERE<<<
2. Download OPS file >>>HERE<<<
3. Download CWM >>>HERE<<<
4. Download drivers>>>HERE<<<
5. Create new folder and call it whatever you want, extract ODIN here and place the OPS and CWM files in here as well. This makes it easy to find everything.
6. Open drivers and install, if you don&#8217;t understand, you probably shouldn&#8217;t be attempting this yet.
7. Put your Admire in download mode, disconnect USB and pull battery. Put battery back in and press volume down, camera and power. Count to 3 and release, you should see instructions saying press volume up to continue, do so. This is not easy, keep trying, you&#8217;ll get it.
8. Open device manager and make sure your computer recognizes your device.
9. Go to the folder you created and double-click the ODIN downloader, this should start ODIN.
10. Make sure you have a yellow &#8220;com&#8221; box, if not, you did something wrong, start over.
11. In the downloader select OPS file and when prompted, CWM file in your new folder.
12. Now, press start. You should see some action in the top left corner of the downloader, when it says done, you&#8217;re done! Congratulations!
13. Disconnect USB and pull battery. Put battery back in, press volume down, back and power buttons. Release when you see CWM.
14. Navigate recovery with volume buttons, scroll down to back up/restore, select back up using the home button for selections.
 
*slight chuckle*
I love it when that happens....

For future reference, once a device is rooted on this site there is a sub section called "...all things root"
Its at the top of the main section ina blue bar above the stickies.
 
so did you guys compile CWM from source, or did you port it from another phone

Is the source on github, if so, do you have a link
 
I've tried over and over to get this to work but although I can get to the Odin window where it says "downloading" but I can't get the computer to recognize my phone so I can load the files into it. Please any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Nope, this is the same CWM I released. Nobody pinned the thread I made so this topic has been reposted twice or three times now.

In fact, if you scroll down the first page of the All Things Root subforum, you'll see my post.

One final request: do not donate to anyone who posts my admire-cwm.tar file. That goes for myself as well.
