[Q] How to completely flash and erase everything - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General

I found a Galaxy Y at the bus stations a month ago... I left it at the found things office of the station but after one month noone came to get it so it is mine now...
My problem is that when I found it it asked for an unlock pattern.I didn't try anything but probably the station workers did and now it is locked more and asks for the google account information of the owner...I tried to unlock it following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800
But although everything does finish the phone is still locked. Does anyone have an idea what to do?

Go to stock recovery mode and wipe data and cache then restart

As now you've got back your firmware, be sure to take a backup by CWM before flashing any custom rom or theme. This way, if you stuck up again, you'll be able to restore your firmware along with the data.

[Solved] Problem in rooting for the Second time

I rooted my galaxy grand a month ago!!
But didn't unroot it properly, I simply factory reset my device!!
The problem stopped at that time!!!
But now I want to root my mobile, But it shows that "zip verification failed" for the super user file{UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.25.zip}.
I thought that the zip file was broken!!
But after downloading the same file from various sites, I realised that the problem resides in my Grand itself!!!
I followed the video tutorial of Cursed4Eva channel in youtube (How to root galaxy grand safe and no loss), Did exactly as per the video.
Now I want to install xperiaZ custom rom to my mobile! but unable to root my mobile.
HELP ME PLEASE!

do you have custom recovery installed ?
No I dont have cwm installed on my mobile
I downloaded the official firmware from sammobiles and flashed through odin
And tried rooting again as per the procedure.
But no use!
Again signature verification failed!
Downloaded cwm touch chotu222.tar
And flashed!
But I won't get cwm, I get stock recovery in my mobile when pressing volup+pow+home.
My binary count increased to 5
To decrease I want to install triangle away, but no root access!!!
First time stock recovery<e3> didn't say signature verification failed !!
But after resetting my device second time unable to apply update from sd from stock recovery!
Sorry for the late reply
Thanks for the response
Help me please

Unselect auto-reboot
Or as soon as installation of recovery is finished remove & re- insert battery before cell restarts
& the goto recovery mode

[Q] Odin problem

Hey guys
I just recently bought this phone and its really great so i tried to install cwm n root it but its not happening.I previously had a galaxy ace so i am familiar with the process cuz i had done it a zillion times but here the problem is half the time my phone is not recognized by odin n it was recognized a few times n i flashed the cwm file and it all went good but cwm never came but it shows in odin mode that i had flashed it so i dont understand the problem.
And yes i formated and tried again but its still the same thing..i tried different cwms n even the root package but nothing happens..i tried to flash a rom also but that too doesnt happen n i tried to update my phone by kies but it shows a problem in that too
Please help me out here..im running official 4.1.2 indian version..It had come with official ics but i did the ota updates
Cheers
AFAIK grand came with JB not ICS

If the posts has nothing to do with chotu then don't quote him.
Just a suggestion as it shows notification.

During the installation of cmw untick the auto reboot option and leave the rest as it is!
When done flashing remove battery and restart in cmw.
Report if works
