Need help here, i unable to install cwm to my grand, try more thank 5 times , following the guide, but still failed, always when i want to enter cwm after reboot, it will go to manual mode, and android pic with open stomach with red sign appears , haha, need help here, why its happend?? :silly:
The first time I installed CWM, I had to untick the Auto Reboot option on Odin, and after it successfully flashed the recovery I unplugged the device and removed the battery. Place back the battery, then go directly to the recovery (press home+power+volume up in the same time). If you just turn on the device normally, Samsung's firmware will overwrite CWM with stock Android recovery.
And from there... you can just install any custom ROM you want

If you wish to stay stock but keeping the CWM, there is an option to fix recovery when you reboot the system... that way the firmware will not overwrite CWM...
I forgot which CWM/Philz Touch/TWRP has that feature... maybe check the pinned threads in General Section.
I recommend installing GENNEXT rom from balliboxer if you wish to stay stock and rooted... it's much less laggy than official 4.2.2

Okay just rooted my galaxy s 2 with the auto root, I want to install roms using rom manager but sometimes it will rom manager has denied super user permission but other times it will not say it all and it will download complete I hit install rom wipe everything then a triangle with an exclamation mark in it and the android dude on the side pops up and stays there, I take the battery out then put it back in and it takes me to the recovery system but it only says reboot now, apply update, wipe data, and wipe cache with the triangle with an exclamation mark in it and the android dude still showing behind it. Any clue to what can be wrong?
Sounds like you haven't flashed a custom recover, if you have unlocked the bootloader already then you may be able to flash clockworkmod recovery from within rom manager,
Not sure I have an evo 3d

What do you mean by haven't unlocked bootloader?
I hold the vol. down, power and home button at the same time then vol up to continue it says Odin Mode, product name SPH-D710, Custom Binary download: NO, Current Binary: Samsung official....Downloading do not turn off target!! Been on the screen for a while now.

No u just need Clockwork Mod recovery to flash a rom rom manager won't do it, I had this problem and really rooted again with a method that included clockwork mod in it. I have a Mac so I don't think it'll be the same way but try this. If u can go to the ACS website they are always easier.

First, just to make sure, you wrote Galaxy S 2 in your OP, but you are on the E4GT (Sprint) version correct?
If you are, and used sfhub's Auto Root, did you proceed to option 'C'? If not, you have not yet installed a custom recovery, which is what you need to install custom ROMs.
Try this, hold [Power] + [Vol. Up] at the same time for several seconds (30+.) If you are booted into CWM recovery, you will be all set to flash ROMs, if not you still need a kernel with CWM (option C in the auto root process.) Based on your comments in the OP, you do not have a custom recovery. I believe you described the stock recovery.
Easiest thing to do is go back to the Auto Root batch file and complete option C. This will give you recovery without increasing your custom software counter (counter = bad for warranty.)
Yes I'm with sprint and no I didn't proceed with c thanks for informing me I will try to see if it works. Thanks.

Install RSDLite on your PC. Use WinRAR or 7zip to decompress the. gz file you downloaded (there is an sbf file inside - the clean Froyo firmware you want to flash - and save it somewhere.
Take your Defy and press the power and volume up button and release after some seconds so that you enter the bootloader mode (you see some white text on black ground).
Connect the phone via USB with your PC with RSDLite running.
In RSDLite click the button with the three dots and open the sbf file you extracted.
Hit the start button. Now it starts flashing the firmware, takes a couple of minutes.
When it's done the phone reboots and is running a Motorola Froyo firmware (not rooted or something, it can't really be called a ROM). If you want you can root, install CWM again etc and put your ROM in it again.
Almost always when your Defy is doesn't boot anymore or is somehow broken softwarewise, you can use this method to repair it.
thank you for your time.

If you want the recovery menu you need to install 2ndinit. http://goo.gl/5P89P
Open the app and install the recovery menu with it, then reboot (some say it is safer to reboot even two times). You get the blue LED after powering the phone on, you have to press volume down then. There you can get to the custom recovery and wipe data, cache, install zips from SD etc.

Hello Vatsalbh9, follow the steps in video to root your phone.
1. Yes you need to root your device to use custom recovery.
2 & 3. You need to use odin first to get cwm recovery installed in your phone. Follow video steps.
4. When you have installed cwm recovery mode with odin, just go to recovery mode (keep holding vol up+power+home button until samsung galaxy grand gt i9082 logo appears on screen). Der you will see backup option. So make a nandroid backup in your external sd card and transfer that backup (clockworkmod folder in your ext sd card) in your laptop or pc for future use.
Download the files given in the description of the video.

Also I would suggest you to make efs backup. Go to the following thread for making efs backup

No need of downloading stock rom, just make a nandroid backup for future use if you want to go back to stock rom. Download any of the custom rom given in the development thread.

Follow these steps for nandroid backup :-
1. Enter into recovery mode(vol up+power+home button)
2. U will see many options like - reboot system, install from zip, wipe data... Bla bla bla... And BACKUP AND RESTORE
3. Select Backup & Restore option.
4. Once u select it, again many options will come but choose backup on ext sd card/sdcard01
5. Nandroid backup will take around 5-10 mins depending upon your data size.
6. Once the process is complete, you will see a text written on bottom of screen 'Backup is complete'.... Go back to previous menu and reboot your phone.
7. You will find "clockworkmode" folder in your ext sd card. This folder contains your nandroid backup. Transfer this folder to another safe location like pc or laptop.
Note.. While in cwm recovery mode, use vol up and down key for navigation and power key for selecting any particular option.
Also dont increase comments for saying thanks, just press the thanks button
For installing any custom rom, download and save the rom, GApps in your ext sd card and flash them in cwm recovery mode.
Steps for installing rom will be given in respective rom threads but generally these steps are to be performed :-
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Install rom(zip)
Once installation is complete, install GApps
5. Wipe cache partition
6. Wipe delvik cache
7. Reboot your phone.
First boot of every custom rom will take a longer time to boot.. Varying from 3-10 mins, so dont panic.
Also some custom roms require latest version of cwm recovery, so before installing custom rom, download the recovery and flash it..
1. In cwm( if it is a zip file)
Or
2. In odin( if it is a. Img or. Tar file)

Redo the process.... I think cwm is not installed on ur phone yet. When you see pass in odin.. Just remove the battery manually... Wait for 5-6 seconds.. Den reboot your phone.. Once a normal reboot is completed... Den go to recovery mode....
Hope u get it this time.
Ok...
Is the CWM provided in the YouTube link is latest ?
Cz if I want to install latest rom will it support ?
And is it necessary to flash supersu via CWM for installing custom rom ? Or only CWM is enough ?

No it isnt the latest version, but it will help you to proceed further. Once you get this cwm recovery mode, you can easily flash latest version as well.. And there will be a link given for recommend recovery in rom thread.
No it isnt necessary to flash super su as all cm11 based roms have inbuilt super su with them.

1. Use this recovery by pawitp
2. Untick Auto reboot checkbox in Odin.
3. Once Odin shows pass, remove battery, wait 10-15 secs, re-insert and enter Recovery mode (by pressing Vol up +. Power button + Home keys at once until u see boot loader screen and release immediately).

I didnt immediately took off the battery... I let the fon boot after flashing... I think im making a mistake there... cz I had checked auto reboot in my attempts...
Now im gonna try by unchecking auto reboot option...
When Odin will display Pass, I will disconnect fon from usb and then take off the battery...
Will wait for 15 secs and then will try to boot into recovery mode...
Hope its all done... Fingers crossed...
And I have to release all three buttons(up+home+power)when galaxy grand logo appears... is it right ?

Hi Guys, I have had a tab 3 passed to me to take a look at its an sm-t210 and I am really struggling to get it working.
I can boot to download mode and I can boot to stock recovery mode but it wont actually the OS load up.
I have tried flashing the stock rom from sams and my eyes actually sting from reading so many posts on this now.
The furthest I can get is rebooting after flashing the stock firmware then its stuck on the system recovery with E failed to verify whole-file signature, signature verification failed.
I have tried with the latest 4.4.2 to the 4.1.2 and it just gets stuck in to a boot loop as only half the installation is completing.
Tried pretty much everything and just at the end of my tether now
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you kindly in advance

Hi, Thank you for getting back to me..
I have not installed a custom recovery, it is the stock from samsung-updates.com 7.0_WiFi/SM-T210/BTU/T210XXBNI1 (4.4.2) I have been trying to get working but that just goes in to a hard repeating boot up loop once finished in oden that wont let me access recovery.
I have re flashed with samsung-updates.com 7.0_WiFi/S_M-T210/BTU/T210XXAMKF (4.1.2) which gets me a little further as it then spits up a signature verification error while trying to update in the stock recovery program.
I have tried numerous others from reading through posts on here and they all fail at the signature verification or get stuck in a repeating boot up loop.
I cant post links yet as I am a new member, I can take screen shots though i think if you need them for reference.
Thank you kindly in advance
Please tell me , you are The first owner, or is a second Hand one.?
Wy i ask , at Download you can See The Staus as Custom, so it was modified.
Try a factory reset, Wipe cache from The recovery and try to reboot.

It belongs to my friend's son who had it new and I am unsure what exactly he has done to it. I was just given it to try repair as I am usually quite sharp at fixing things.
Yes I noticed that box says custom but was unsure as I have already tried doing factory reset and wipe cache I thought it would return it to stock but it seems to have no effect.
OK, my last idea,
1.Download a customrom for exp. Nolekat to a ext.Sdcard and put this to your Tab
2.Download a Custumrecovery lastet Version ( The one with KK extension ) to your PC i prefere CWM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433853
3.go into Download mode and follow the Guide from the link.
4. Important , after flashing with Odin boot with the 3 Buttons to the Recovery and flash the Customrom.
Good luck and a happy New year 2015

Ok here is where I am at. I was unable to get an external SD card today. Is there any other way to get this device working?
When I flash T210_CWM_6.0.4.9.KK.tar.md5 it does not let me access recovery mode, it just hangs on a black screen but I can still get to download mode.
I have to re flash Stock rom so it gives me back recovery mode but does not complete as shown before with screenshot.
I am just going around in circles now and about to tell my friend he needs to get a new one sadly.

This is its current state in recovery mode after flashing stock rom.
Try doing a factory reset there in the recovery and wipe the cache. Then see if it will reboot.

Okay, so you're in stock recovery. You need to reboot to download mode. Next you need to flash a custom recovery with Odin. I recommend TWRP. You also need to download the most recent supersu zip. Once you're in the custom recovery of your choice, flash the supersu zip and reboot. Congratulations, you are now on rooted stock!

It may appear that firmware has got to be flashed more than once (I have faced a three time flash till success lately).
pls make a screenshot of Odin fail, btw: which Odin version do you use?

I highly recommend custom roms cause they give the maximum which this old device can handle, even Note 4 features and Lollipop experience.
Look into Android development section and find one that you like.
You will need a custom recovery CWM or TWRP flashed through Odin depends on which rom you prefer and find in installation instructions of that rom.

OK, take TWRP - at least 2.8.6.0 from HERE and only which is named "t03g.img.tar" flash through Odin AP/PDA.
Go into recovery by pressing volume up + power + home button and flash rom saved on your extSD.
