I have a Galaxy S4 i9506 model SHV E300S from Korea (SK Telecom).
Please help me on how to change my recovery as I can't use Philz to root my phone, I tried to install zip of SuperSU but doesn't get installed so I want to try it with Chenglu's CWM. Please give me the steps on how to change my recovery. Thanks! :)

Follow this GUIDE , second post has chenglu cwm tar :cowboy:

Thanks sir, but do I have to wipe anything or uninstall Philz recovery? Or shall I just go to download mode again, flash CWM by Chenglu and it will automatically replace Philz recovery? Won't there be any problems in recovery or booting after that if I have two recoveries installed? Or Philz recovery should have been removed automatically as I install Chenglu's CWM? Thanks!

Just go into download & flash tar file :D it'll automatically replace philz recovery & you will just have chenglu on phone as recovery? :cowboy:
