I too installed cwm on my galaxy w but it wouldn't make backups, I've been searching the forum for a while to find out how to uninstall it, do you just go in to odin and still use ancora as ops? I don't know what 'one package' to install though, any help would be greatly appreciated :laugh:

[Q] Best method for root

There are some old threads on rooting and new ones that are completely different.
What is the best method to r00t and what mod should i flash on it after i've rooted?
GT-I8160 v2.3.6 Gingerbread. BB: I8160XXLK6. Kernel: 2.6.35.7
Thanks

Flash a custom rom. I think kyrillos v5 is best for GB. Root is included.
But please.... There is a Q and A thread, so please use it(or ask in "how to root" thread)...
Sent from my GT-I8160 using xda premium

the simple/best rooting methode
hy,
... first extract file "I8160XXLI2_CWM_5.0.2.6_ANT.tar" from rar archive
Methode for any GB firmware:
1. instal with odin the file "I8160XXLI2_CWM_5.0.2.6_ANT.tar", in the field "PDA"
2. boot in CWM mode and update with zip file "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.25.zip"
3. reboot ... and your mobile is rooted
Methode for any JB firmware:
1. boot in recovery mode and update with zip file "UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.25.zip"
2. reboot ... and your mobile is rooted

Are you sure? I can just copy the file to my phone, boot in recovery and install.. ?
It says "Ensure that you have I8160XXLL2 installed + custom kernel (requirements). If you don't have them already installed:
-Follow this guide to flash stock firmware"
Do i not have to install the custom kernel?

please follow post #3

[Optional but recommended] Stock I8160XXLL2 firmware installed [For Europe users. Download: http://d-h.st/Yyn]
Custom kernel with CWM/TWRP recovery [HD Kernel (custom kernel with TWRP, recommended) or antsm's kernel (stock kernel with CWM)]

Ok i'm going to try and flash kyrillos now, thanks.

I've used the already rooted rom's in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881964

I put EX Kernel on and flashed it with Kyrillos. The phone worked up until my phone crashed, as i had a lot of apps running. When i removed the battery/restarted it just got stuck in a boot loop I've accepted it and i'm going to just flash everything again. Whats the best solution around this or prevention in case it happens again?

All my apps are crashing upon startup again and i cant do anything expect click through force close over and over
I've cleared cache files, removed sd, battery etc. Nothing. I can mount the phone to my computer though.

Why we can't root any build like this way?

Hi:
For one week i was asking my self that when we got new builds that no one know how to root it , why don't we use CWM to force flash su files to system? why it will not work?
I mean if we flashed the root using CWM , the phone must be rooted right?

Ok.
So how do you put in cwm on a new rom without it already installed?

I didn't understand. After flash the stock rom just f;ask custom kernel with CWM then flash the root zip the reflash the stock kernel.

On stock rom (locked bl) you need root to instal cwm, then from cwm do whatever you want do.
Also unlocked BL is always ROOTABLE, don't ask even once for this.
Many newbies on Forum posts that thay found root for unlocked BL, that isnt achivement. Flash custom kernel with root in self.
Trying to root locked bl, well, that is pain in the ass.

As unlocked BL you have few option.
1. Kernel which is pre rooted
2. Rom which is pre rooted
3. Flash some root.zip (depends on rom and/or kernel).
I prefer doomkernel

Actually, there is a universal zip file for any android phone which *should* root your phone but very often the installation fails because of a wrong update-binary (Status 0). So I made a zip which should work on our Xperia phones here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1772586&d=1362200612
Just flash in cwm and enjoy the root access

Yes, i think if we flashed the root (su and busybox package) via CWM or any recovery tool, the phone must be rooted. But in some cases at stock kernel, the CWM doesn't work properly so first of all unlocking bootloader if we flashed any custom kernel (like doomlord kernel) then we can easily get root access flashing the package via recovery.
thanks !

Just small question , what is the job for "fix_permissions" file? Is it important?

Aha , my idea was to unlock bootloader , flash stock JB then flash ICS kernel+CWM , flash the root.zip then reflash the stock kernel.

It sets the correct permissions on the su binary. Actually there is no need for this file since the updater-script does all the work but while I was working on my rom, the permissions were not getting set properly so I used this script

I modified a TWRP installer with this CWM. Replaced TWRP with CWM on my E986 and it works. Updated adb.exe to work with 4.4.
To install just extract the zip contents and run the batch file.

No, you can't flash those files, but if you want to update CWM, why don't you install Philz recovery for the e980, it is great.

I have a e986 german with Stock 20a EU 4.4.2
If I installed cwm it gives me a boot loop into recovery. So I must install my rom via kdz tool and so I have no recovery yet. I found no way to flash a working recovery and unlock bootloader for my phone.
Can I flash this under e986eu20a?

GT-N7102 recovery/rom help

hello everyone, i have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note II(GT-N7102 Daul sim) that i got from a friend of
mine. im not sure if its a clone or not but im having hard time putting in a custom recovery. the odin
method will not work nor will it go into odin mode and yes ive tried several different ways and it simply
will not work. ive been at this for about a week now.
so my question(s) at this point is:
1. Is there a flash-able recovery zip file that i can install via stock recovery?
2. Is it safe flash a custom recovery using the skipsoft tool kit via sideloader in the stock recovery(ADB)?
or
3. is it safe to install a custom recovery through the Rom Installer App?
morale of the story here folks is i just want put in a custom english rom but i cant do that without a custom recovery. and if anything i just want Gapps to work on my current rom(for now anayways)
also this probably off topic but i would like to know if theres a way to tell if i have a clone or not
your help and wisdom will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!!
