ROM manager doesn't work for us. Look at the development section sticky of Sfhubs auto root method. If you already have root access, run the option with CWM

Don't need Odin if you use sfhub's auto root package. It's really simple

Just S-OFF'd and rooted my wife's Inc2. Does anyone know if it is ok to use ROM Manager to flash Clockwork Recovery after using the Revolutionary tool to install their custom Clockwork Recovery? The reason I want to is because ROM Manager doesn't seem to recognize the Revolutionary CW Recovery that their tool installs.
Does it work? Will it ruin recovery? What's the story?
Revolutionary doesnt push SU unless they updated it to. And you need root to flash recovery with rom manager. If you cant get recovery installed with revolutionary, youll have to install it with fastboot.

Thanks Times,
I used their tool which (after S-OFF) pushes a custom clockwork recovery which I then used that to flash SU onto it. But now I was wondering if it was ok to use ROM Manager to push a clockwork recovery that it could recognize. But it looks like Beenz was able to with success, just looking to see what others have done or know.
Thanks!
I also have the CWM installed by Revolutionary. In ROM Manager, go to menu --> manual flash override. I've been using it with no problems without having to reflash CWM. The only drawback is that every time ROM Manager starts up, it tells me that there is an newer version of CWM available. Not the end of the world.
So reflash or don't, works either way.
Thanks xenakis.

Once you root through odin can you flash roms through ROM manager or have to do it manually through cwm recovery?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I would say manually. Rom manager is not yet supported on this phone yet.

Can anyone tell me if i have to root through heimdall to install cyanogen Rom so it can run smoother or can i just root through odin
You don't even need to root. You can just flash CWM in Odin, then boot into recovery and flash away.

If you don't root, then you wouldn't be able to use Titanium Backup, though ... correct?
[edit:] I believe I can answer my own question now: Most if not all ROMs have su privileges, so the phone is rooted once you've flashed.
U flash cwm through odin then u flash su through cwm and Viola you are rooted

In order to flash custom roms you need a custom recovery and to get one you gotta flash it via Odin...
I think you're asking for an impossible lol

Sure, it's called SuperSUv0.96CWM.zip and is only flash-able from custom recovery (CWM/TWRP).
No matter how you slice it, you WILL need ODIN at one point or the other to root these Samsung phones. You have 2 methods:
Flash custom recovery via odin, then flash supersu.zip (Up's custom counter by 1) But can be erased with triangle away
Or
Flash the full rooted stock image via Odin (Will give you root, but no custom recovery. No added count on flash counter)
Oh ok. Just got the phone and dont have my laptop for another week, so it looks like im gonna have to wait for a littlebit

Don't you have friends or family?
You don't need ODIN to install TWRP recovery:

And after you install TWRP recovery, you can root with the zip file that you can d/l from the following thread:

Yes, you are right. Goo Manager does need root permission. My bad.
There's no way I can think of to root without ODIN then.
Can't you use the adb method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1766552 then flash the superuser zip?
lol nvm
Can i root the epic 4g with this apk? And can i install twrp ? Or do i really need odin?

Only one way to find out...

1.) Try it out if you're curious.
2.) TWRP 2.6.0.0 is available for our device via their website.
3.) Typical way is using Odin and the BML CWM version.
Root method for FC09 is in post 2 of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006687 in case that didn't work for you.
