Hey dvtmg, which root method did you use? Most likely, you have the stock android recovery which will not allow you to do a nandroid backup, or flash roms. You will need a custom recovery (CWM, Rogue, ACS) to begin either of those processes.

If you run auto root I think it's option 3 to add cwm. Not sure though but check it out.

Yes option 3 is for installing CWM only. As far as a rom I would recommend calk's it will give you the features you are looking for.

Thanks

I rooted using the exynos exploit, then flashed cwm with rom manager but can't get into recovery.

That was the error... rom manager... ones you are rooted... install goo manager and install twrp from there...(the app itself)

Thanks have goo but don't see twrp in it

I don't think there is since you have to flash a zip file to actually root your system but you can always go back and install your stock recovery after your rooted
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

You can with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963812, but you won't be able to install any ROMs.

Thanks will look into it
Sent from my SCH-L710 using xda app-developers app

Yes that link will work although i dont think there is a cspire version so youll have to use sprints. That said this will do what your asking as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2017470

Stock AOSP Browser?

Hey, I'm not sure if this is allowed but does anyone have an .apk of the stock AOSP browser from Nexus devices? I had it on my S2 and it was so much more smoother than chrome but i can't seem to find it anymore. Thanks

Are you rooted and running a custom recovery? If so download that file(make note of where it at), boot into recovery ,go to install, and choose that file. Once it's done reboot and you should have ur browser in you're app drawer. If you're not rooted and running a custom recovery u will need a signed apk. to install normally.
