Samsung Made The Skyrocket Very Easy To Flash Custom Roms And/or Root The Phone.
There Is No Bootloader To Unlock.
The Skyrocket Has Four Main Partitions > Recovery - Radio - Kernel - System.
All Custom Roms Only Have The Kernel And The System , Which I/We Refer To As "The Rom".
No Custom Roms Include The Recovery And/or Radio Other Than Full Stock Firmwares.
The Recovery Is A Seperate Standalone File/partition And As Such It Is Not Tied/linked/combined To The Rom And/or Kernel.
Odin Is A Windows Program For Installing Stock Firmwares And Recoveries Onto Samsung Phones But We Can Use It To Install A "Custom" Recovery.
The First And Foremost Thing You Need To Do To Your Skyrocket Is To Replace The Stock Recovery Called "3e" With A Custom Recovery Called "TWRP" To Be Installed With The Program Called "Odin", Its Easy And Takes Less Than One Minute.
After Installing The TWRP Custom Recovery With Odin Your Phone Will Bootup To Exactly What You Had Before - It Does Not Touch The Android Operating System On Either Stock Firmwares Or Custom Roms, All Your Stuff Will Be Untouched, Unless You Boot Into Recovery You Would Never Know That You Had Installed It.
Once A Custom Recovery Is Installed You Can Then Install Other Custom Recoveries, Root The Phone, Flash Custom Roms, Kernels, Radios/modems, Bootanimations, Apps Or Any Other Flashable Zip File That You Find Here In The Skyrocket Xda Forum
Using Odin is Not Required Or Needed Anymore Unless You Reinstalled Stock Recovery Via Flashing Full Stock Firmware Or The Standalone Stock Recovery.
Links To The Recovery Zip Files Are In The 1stop Sticky
To Install Custom Roms On Stock Phones w/twrp installed You do Not Need To Root The Phone, Just Follow The Devs Instructions In Their Op On Installing The Custom Rom.
Root Is Only Required if You Are On Stock Samsung Att/Rogers Firmwares And Need To Remove Bloatware And/or Modify System Files, Root Is Not Needed To Install Any Roms Or Recoveries
I Reiterate: You Need To Install A Custom Recovery before You Can Flash Custom Roms Or Root The Phone, You Do not Need To Root The Phone To Install Custom Roms Or Custom Recoveries.
Stock Phones = Use Odin To Flash TWRP Custom Recovery
Staying On Stock w/Custom Recovery = Flash Root Files From 2nd Post.
Flashing Any Custom Roms = If On Stock Recovery Then Use Odin To Flash TWRP Custom Recovery, Dont Waste Your Time Rooting.
Almost Everything For And About The Skyrocket Is In The 1STOP STICKY

PEREQUISTE: PHONES USB PORT WORKING AND RECOGNIZED BY PC. DRIVERS FOR USB INSTALLED CORRECTLY. IF NOT INSTALLED USE EITHER USB DRIVERS FILES OR INSTALL KIES WHICH INSTALLS USB DRIVERS
MAKE SURE KIES, ADB OR ANYTHING THAT HAS USB ACCESS LIKE VM'S ARE NOT RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND - CHECK WITH WINDOWS TASK MANAGER.
IF PHONES USB PORT IS DEAD THERES NO WAY TO INSTALL A CUSTOM RECOVERY AND AS SUCH YOUR STUCK ON STOCK FIRMWARE W/NO WAY TO ROOT THE STOCK FIRMWARE. DONT BELIEVE ANYONE THATS SAYS OTHERWISE.
NOTE: THIS METHOD IS ONLY FOR WINDOWS, ODIN IS A WINDOWS PROGRAM FOR INSTALLING STOCK FIRMWARES AND RECOVERIES ONTO SAMSUNG PHONES.
FOR MAC'S YOU NEED TO USE HEIMDALL OR USE BOOT CAMP, I DONT HAVE A MAC SO I CANT HELP YOU THERE.
NOTE: MICROSOFTS INTERNET BROWSER SOMETIMES HAS ISSUES DL'ING "TAR.MD5" FILES, IF HAVING A MD5 ERROR USE FIREFOX or CHROME BROWSERS TO DOWNLOAD THE TAR.MD5 FILES.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for your devices, these methods have been proven to work but sh*t happens!

1. HOW TO INSTALL TWRP RECOVERY :
FOR ANY AND ALL STOCK FIRMWARES OR CUSTOM ROMS
NEWBS: READ THE WHOLE POST X2 B4 YOU PROCEED.
1. GETTING PHONE INTO DOWLOAD MODE(aka odin mode):
AT NO TIME IS THE POWER BUTTON TOUCHED FOR THIS PROCEDURE.
Download mode is NOT the same as recovery mode
a. Remove and Reinsert the battery, have usb cable inserted to computer usb port but NOT to your phone until step (c).
b. ATT PHONES - Press and keep down both Volume Up and Volume Down buttons simultaneously.
ROGERS PHONES - Press and keep down only the Volume Down button.
DO NOT RELEASE THE VOLUME BUTTON(S) UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO IN STEP (d)
c. While still holding the volume button(s) down insert the USB cable into your device.
The phone will turn itself on when usb cable is inserted.
* KEEP VOLUME BUTTON(S) PRESSED - DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER BUTTON *
d. When You see the screen warning you about installing a custom OS w/a yellow triangle RELEASE the volume button(s)

}
e.
1ST PIC: Now press and release the volume "up" button, you should now be at the Download Mode screen w/odin recognizing your phone.
2ND PIC: this is also download/odin mode - the screen will display this when odin or kies has failed/not completed a previous flash, just continue following the procedure and/or read "section #3 troubleshooting odin" below.
1ST PIC >>
....
2ND PIC >>
2. DOWNLOAD twrp-3.0.0-0-skyrocket.tar.md5 - DO NOT CHANGE THE FILE NAME.
3. DOWNLOAD Odin-1.85.zip , Extract the contents of odin-185.zip to a folder, within that folder start "Odin3 v1.85.exe" .
4. Prepare Odin: Check "auto-reboot" and UNCHECK ALL OTHER OPTIONS.
Only Click "PDA" and navigate/select the TWRP tar.md5 file you downloaded from step #2.
DO NOT! CHECK "REPARTITION" IN ODIN! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! SEE COMPUTER SREEN PICS BELOW.
ON YOUR COMPUTER THIS IS WHAT YOUR SCREEN MUST LOOK LIKE WHEN YOUR PHONE IS IN DOWNLOAD MODE AND ODIN IS RECOGNIZING YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU HIT THE START BUTTON.
5. Click Start in Odin. It will flash the new recovery and will reboot the phone when completed.
ON YOUR COMPUTER THIS IS WHAT YOUR SCREEN MUST LOOK LIKE WHEN ODIN HAS FINISHED FLASHING YOUR PHONE
IF YOU HAD ERRORS OR PROBLEMS USING ODIN, GO TO SECTION 3 - TROUBLESHOOTING ODIN
If All Went Well Then You are done using ODIN.
6. UPDATING TWRP
How To Enter Recovery Mode Is In Section #2 Below
Do Not Use Odin To Flash "Zip" Files.
LINKS TO RECOVERY ZIP FILES ARE IN THE 1STOP THREAD
TWRP
Read The TWRP THREAD To See If New Updates Have Any Bugs
PREFERRED METHOD: You can use a flashable zip file to be used by TWRP recovery, check in the 1STOP STICKY in the recovery section for latest files, copy the "zip" file to your sdcard and install it via the custom recovery and reboot back into recovery to see if it installed correctly.
ALTERNATE METHOD #1: TWRP now has odin flashable tar files , check HERE for latest TAR FILE to be used by ODIN. - WARNING - these are not tar.md5 files so check the HASH before flashing
ALTERNATE METHOD #2: using img files read this
7. You're done newbie and soon to be a power user, read and educate yourself as much as you can before flashing, happy flashing. :fingers-crossed:
2. HOW TO ENTER INTO THE RECOVERY MODE
ENTERING IN TO RECOVERY MODE IS THE SAME METHOD FOR BOTH ATT AND ROGERS SKYROCKETS.
ENTERING IN TO RECOVERY MODE IS THE SAME METHOD FOR BOTH STOCK AND A CUSTOM RECOVERY.
RECOVERY AND DOWNLOAD(ODIN) MODES ARE NOT THE SAMETHING
Now turn off your phone, unplugged(might work plugged in)
Press and keep both volume keys down
Then press the power button while still holding down the volume keys
When you feel the phone vibrate or see a logo on the screen, release the power button but not the volume keys.
When screen goes black release the volume keys.
Wait a few seconds to boot in to recovery
You are now in recovery mode
.
3. TROUBLESHOOTING ODIN
If Odin Shows An md5 Error Redownload The File Again
If Odin hangs at "Getting PIT for mapping" or giving a pit error - Read This Thread and post number 15 for solution
If the phone boots into any rom, make sure windows can transfer from and to internal and external sdcards to rule out driver issues
Does kies recognize your phone, even if you are on a custom rom kies will recognize your phone, this rules out driver issues
Make Sure You Are In Download Mode On Your Phone
If having trouble getting into dl mode try this>> take out the battery and leave it out. Plug the phone into the micro usb cable. Plug the USB end into your comp. Hold volume rockers down(either both or vol "-") and reinsert the battery
Make Sure Kies, Adb Or Anything That Has Usb Access Like Vm's Are Not Running In The Background or Running As A Service - Check With Windows Task Manager.
Restart computer
Make sure battery is charged
Try different usb port, preferably the rear ones on computer
Use original samsung usb cable, or try different cable but still oem
Uninstall drivers and kies, unplug phone & reboot comp, then just reinstall the USB Drivers from here
Try a different computer
Clean phones usb port w/no battery installed
If Phone Boot Loops Or Enters Into Recovery Mode While Trying To Get Into Download Mode(and you are sure you followed above procedure and also did not touch the power button), You Could Have A Stuck Power Button. To Fix That Try To Repeatedly Keep Pushing The Power Button Hard To Try To Unstick It. To Read More About The "Sticky" Power Button Problem Goto the 1STOP info section.
If you tried ALL of above tests and phone is not recognized by your computer you then have a hardware problem with the phones usb port. Read this for possible fix - FIX FOR PHONES USB PORT
4. WHAT IS AND WHY DO YOU NEED A CUSTOM RECOVERY
YOUR PHONE COMES STOCK WITH A PROGRAM WE CALL RECOVERY 3e.
TWRP ARE CUSTOM RECOVERIES THAT REPLACES THE STOCK RECOVERY 3e.
ON STOCK FIRMWARE YOU NEED TO USE ODIN TO INSTALL THE TAR FILE(NOT THE ZIP FILE) OF A CUSTOM RECOVERY TWRP, ITS THE FIRST AND FOREMOST THING TO DO TO YOUR SKYROCKET TO BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE TO YOUR PHONE.
ONCE A CUSTOM RECOVERY HAS BEEN INSTALLED YOU CAN THEN BE ABLE TO INSTALL OTHER CUSTOM RECOVERIES, CUSTOM ROMS, ROOT THE PHONE AND INSTALL FLASHABLE "ZIP" FILES.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ROOTED TO FLASH A CUSTOM RECOVERY
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ROOTED TO FLASH CUSTOM ROMS
FLASHING TWRP BY WHATEVER METHOD USED IS NOT ROOTING
INSTALLING A COMPLETE FULL STOCK FIRMWARE WILL REVERT THE CUSTOM RECOVERY BACK TO STOCK RECOVERY.
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO ROOT THE SKYROCKET WITH OUT TWRP
CUSTOM ROMS ARE ALREADY ROOTED: FOLLOW DEVS INSTR.
IF YOU DID HAVE ROOT AND FLASHED STOCK FIRMWARE BY WHATEVER METHOD YOU WILL LOSE ROOT.
YOUR PHONE WILL NOT LOSE APPS OR SETTINGS EITHER BY ROOTING OR FLASHING TWRP UNLESS "YOU" PERFORMED A WIPE/RESET
THE PROCRDURES OUTLINE IN THESE TWO PAGES DOES NOT TRIP THE FLASH COUNTER
DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER TO INSTALL AND/OR UPDATE CWM

OR JUST REFLASH THE SU FILE WITH CWM
3. HOW TO PERMANENTLY UNROOT TESTED ONLY WITH < ESFILE EXPLORER > You Will Not Lose Any Data.

YOU ARE NOW PERMANENTLY UNROOTED
TEST WITH ROOT CHECKER
TO RENABLE ROOT JUST REFLASH THE SU FILE WITH CWM AND REINSTALL SUPERSU FROM PLAYSTORE
4. REPAIR YOUR OLD/BAD/BROKEN ROOT FILES
IF ROOT IS NOT WORKING FROM A PREVIOUS METHOD .
UNINSTALL SUPERUSER GOTO SETTINGS/APPLICATIONS/ SELECT ALL/ SELECT SUPERUSER AND HIT UNINSTALL(if no uninstall option, choose disable).
UNINSTALL BUSYBOX GOTO SETTINGS/APPLICATIONS/ SELECT ALL/ SELECT BUSYBOX AND HIT UNINSTALL(if no uninstall option, choose disable).
REBOOT INTO CWN AND CONTINUE W/THE TUTORIAL WHERE YOU FLASH THE busybox-su-pack-cwm5.zip FILE.
5. EXPLANATION OF WHAT THE SU FILES DO
When you install the SuperSU-0.93-Busybox-1.20.2.zip with CWM it installs SU and BUSYBOX and SuperSU (su needs busybox to work properly)
SU "ROOTS" your phone, it gives you SU(superuser) status.
You are now 100% rooted when you installed that file.
The problem is you have no control of what app has root privilges.
SuperSU gives the user control of what app has root privilges.
When an app requests root access, SuperSU intercedes and you see popup window to allow or deny acess to the SU binary(the file you flashed in CWM).
Thats my best way of explaining it, if someone has a better way let me know
6. INFO ON ROOT: PLEASE READ IT
DONT USE ROM MANAGER TO INSTALL OR UPDATE CWM.
YOUR PHONE WILL BE REMAIN EXACTLY THE SAME WHEN ROOTING OR FLASHING TWRP/CWM WITH THE ADDITION OF A NEW RECOVERY AND THE SUPERSU APP WHEN FOLLOWING THIS TUTORIAL.
ROOTING ALLOWS USER TO CUSTOMIZE THEIR PHONES BY REMOVING SO CALLED BLOATWARE AND OTHER APPS THAT COME PREINSTALLED ON THE PHONE.
YOU DO NEED A CUSTOM RECOVERY TO ROOT
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ROOTED TO FLASH A CUSTOM RECOVERY
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE ROOTED TO FLASH CUSTOM ROMS
BUT YOU DO NEED A CUSTOM RECOVERY(TWRP/CWM) TO FLASH ROMS
FLASHING TWRP/CWM BY WHATEVER METHOD USED IS NOT ROOTING
THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO ROOT THE SKYROCKET WITH OUT FIRST INSTALLING A CUSTOM RECOVERY CWM/TWRP.
CUSTOM ROMS ARE ALREADY ROOTED: FOLLOW DEVS INSTR.
IF YOU DID HAVE ROOT AND FLASHED STOCK FIRMWARE BY WHATEVER METHOD YOU WILL LOSE ROOT.
YOUR PHONE WILL NOT LOSE APPS OR SETTINGS BY ROOTING OR BY ONSTALLING TWRP/CWM UNLESS "YOU" PERFORMED A WIPE/RESET

true, but just updating a step by step for rooting as i see too many post asking how to root the new ics
im not saying drumlords doesnt work, i have not tested that one myself, but these instructions seems bulletproof for newbs and the file mohan provides has bbox already included and me and mohan have tested it to work on stock ics with little fuss for the user to implement
Excellent, thank you very much for the updated information. Now I can worry less about using guides from 1-2 years ago lol.
I tried every one click option I could find just for the hell of it, superoneclick, doomlord, gingerbreak, and others and absolutely positivly without a doubt I can say they do not work... this is the only method I found to work on any ics firmware leaked or official

Just to verify again, entering into recovery for rogers phones is still only the up volume key? Just want to make sure because the two points I bolded seem contradictory so I want to be 100% sure before I do this myself
Recovery and download mode are 2 diffwrent things.
Recovery is the same for rogers and att phones
Download mode is different though between the 2 phones. Rogers phones you hold only the volume down button when plugging in the usb cable to get phone into download mode, then release the volume down key then press volume up key to see the download screen
Att phones you have to press both volume buttons down when plugging in usb cable to get into dl mode then release both volume keys, then press the volume up key to see dl mode screen

You can't stickey it the mods have to lol... you say you don't plan on rooting but I would say why not? Have you weighed the advantages over disadvantages. The only disadvantage is loss of warranty but the advantages are way to many to list them all but a few are
1. Control over your device.
2. Apps like titanium backup that allow you to backup and restore apps without loss of data being able to remove or freeze those unwanted apps.
3. Root access to system files and folders.
And much much more. Also with cwm recovery you can make backups of your current rom you can restore later if something were to mess up on your phone.... just some friendly advice for you to consider and maybe even research on. If you decide to root and get stumped just pm me and I will help you....

just to confirm, you tried this on ics leaks and gb, i would like to add that to the op as a confirmation
im 99.99999% sure that this method would work on leaks and gb, just not enough to say confirmed, but i might have time tonite to test it on the leaks and gb and then be able to say it works 100%

ive talked to him b4, hes a newb(in a nice way) and just trying to understand what all the terms mean, but hes coming along.
as for warranty, its easy to go back to stock and get the warranty repair, just as long his phone can get into dl mode, that info is all in my sticky linked in my sig, oh i see your on tapatalk, cant see my sig, well you can but have to do it the webview way.

You can't stickey it the mods have to lol... you say you don't plan on rooting but I would say why not? Have you weighed the advantages over disadvantages. The only disadvantage is loss of warranty but the advantages are way to many to list them all but a few are
1. Control over your device.
2. Apps like titanium backup that allow you to backup and restore apps without loss of data being able to remove or freeze those unwanted apps.
3. Root access to system files and folders.
And much much more. Also with cwm recovery you can make backups of your current rom you can restore later if something were to mess up on your phone.... just some friendly advice for you to consider and maybe even research on. If you decide to root and get stumped just pm me and I will help you....

I agree... too many advantages over the warranty issue. for starters, freezing all the bloatware will make your battery last longer. NOT seeing them in the list of apps is awesome!! (yeah, i get irritated just scrolling thru a bunch of useless app. Titanium backup is a definite plus. Not to mention a slew of apps that are specifically for rooted device. ;-)
I didn't bother to download/flash new ROM. The ICS from ATT works ok for me. If it is not broke.. I ain't changing it! :good:
Disclaimer: I will not be held responsible for any damage to your device. You are following this tutorial at your own risk (not to discourage anyone, though as safe as this process maybe I will not take blame for anyone's bad luck). Apart from the tutorial explanation and some pictures I do not own any of the methods/tools/ROMs/FW in this tutorial/guide, I respect the works done here by the developers and I have no involvement in there works neither am I claiming so
Optional: download the android SDK
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Some Common Knowledge
Stock Firmware: Is needed when you get your phone stuck in a boot-loop(not getting past the splash/start-up screen) OR if you're having trouble updating through OTA updates or Kies (I had my share of both)
Odin: Is used to Flash a stock/Official FW and in Galaxy R's case CWM as well
CWM: This is needed to back up your device's current FW and to install custom ROMs
Super User: This thing gives you root access
Custom ROMs: For when the stock FW seems too dull or when you need to tweak your device to your liking. For the sake of keeping this guide simple and "streamlined" this would not be discussed in this post
This Tutorial assumes that you have little or no knowledge on flashing/modifying your phone's OS/Firmware
Things you'll need:
1. Odin
2. CWM
3. Super User
4. Flashable ROM/Firmware available here Courtesy of The-Droidster
5. A FULLY CHARGED Galaxy R aka Royale aka Galaxy Z (aka Galaxy S2's adopted brother aka Loki Get it cuz it's low key )
6. A USB data cable
7. A PC (I'm using a windows PC)
8. Patience and time
For Personal ease keep all downloads in a separate folder dedicated for Android "Hacking"
STEP 1A: Downloading/installing Tools
Extract Odin
CWM DO NOT EXTRACT
From the link above download Super User shown here: DO NOT EXTRACT
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
STEP 1B: Downloading Firmware
Open the Official ROM link provided and choose the Firmware you like (Depending upon region/languages and OS version)
After Downloading the zip file extract it
You Should get either:
1. Three additional .tar/.tar.md5 files DO NOT EXTRACT THESE
OR
2. A single .tar/.tar.md5 file DO NOT EXTRACT THIS
The extracted files should look like this:
STEP 2: Set up
Turn off your FULLY CHARGED phone (It's better to have a fully charged phone but above 50% is good too)
Open Odin from the folder:
.
.
Allow it run:
.
.
Set it up like this making sure everything else is unchecked
.
.
Now put the phone in Download Mode. On your phone press and hold the volume down, home and power buttons as shown (power button last)
.
.
The following screen would appear:
Press the Volume up button (Because you're a bad ass!)
Now connect the USB data cable with the phone and computer
After a few minutes (of downloading the drivers) you should see this:
Now everything is setup and you can start flashing/Installing a Firmware
STEP 3: Flashing the phone.
As mentioned before you would have either 3 or just 1 .tar/.tar.md5 files from extracting the FW
Here is how you put the extracted files in Odin.
For three files
The file containing the word CODE goes in PDA
The file containing the word MODEM goes in PHONE
The file containing the word CSC goes in CSC
AS Shown here:
For a single .tar/ .tar.md5 file, place the file in the PDA
Click Start and wait for the Yellow rectangle to go green and you're done.
The phone will start automatically and take a few minutes on first boot (so be patient)
And you've Flashed your phone! Hoorah!
Now on to CWM and Root!
Place the Super User .zip file and the Custom ROM .zip in the internal SD of the phone (not the SD card)
STEP 4: Clockwork Recovery Mod aka CWM
Launch Odin, keeping the previous settings
Click the PDA button and open the CWM file: it should look like this
Turn off your phone
Put it in to Download Mode using the volume down, Home and Power Buttons.
Connect the device and PC
Be a Bad ass again!
Hit Start on Odin
Wait for Reboot! ....aaaaand then turn off!
Turn the device ON
After seeing the GalaxyR logo immediately hit the VOLUME UP and HOME buttons
If you see this:
Congratulations! You just installed CWM
STEP 5: Super User/Root access
Note: Recovery navigates using power up and down and to enter the power button
From the CWM select "Install zip from sdcard"
Look for the Super User .zip file and select it
Select yes to install
Reboot!
Now you would have a super user icon in your apps!
Congratulations! You just rooted your phone!

I know for a fact that there are more than just one tutorial out there, I just tried to make a simplified and yet a more detailed Guide as best as I could
I even added pretty pictures
Very well written!
Good job buddy! This could just be the new one stop thread for flashing, rooting and installing cwm for Galaxy R!
However there are a few subtle changes that I would like to mention!
1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN
download the android SDK It is important for installing drivers and tools etc
Not so mandatory for the purpose of flashing and rooting! Drivers get installed automatically, when the device is connected to the PC(Be sure you have Internet connectivity just in case windows has to look up for updated drivers!)
2. Things you'll need:
1. Odin
2. CWM
Use this link for the CWM recovery! It has been optimised by Adam and does not need to be extracted!
As such make corrections here as well:
Extract Odin and CWM (DO NOT EXTRACT the zip folder inside the CWM)
From the link above download Super User shown here: DO NOT EXTRACT
3. STEP 1B: Downloading Firmware
Open the Official ROM link provided and choose the Firmware you like (Depending upon region/languages and OS version)
After Downloading the zip file extract it
You Should get three additional .zip/.tar/.rar files DO NOT EXTRACT THESE
The extracted files should look like this:
You are being very specific here! The 3 files format is not applicable to all ROM's for Galaxy R. Rather almost all the Stock ROM's come as a single *.tar or *.tar.md5 package that is directly loaded into the PDA section of ODIN! No other files are required!
So please make corrections at relevant places like here:As mentioned before you would have 3 .zip/.tar files from extracting the FW
Here is how you put the extracted files in Odin.
The file containing the word CODE goes in PDA
The file containing the word MODEM goes in PHONE
The file containing the word CSC goes in CSC
4. [*]Reboot! ....aaaaand then turn off!
Odin always Auto Reboots the device after flashing. So no need to manually do that.
5. Now the most important thing:
I recommend that you completely remove the section for flashing custom ROM's.
Reason: Each Custom ROM developer will have his/her own method of installing the ROM. Though most of it is generic, still there are quite a few steps that are different for each ROM. So the discussion regarding installing a custom ROm better be kept confined to the thread of that particular ROM. As such it would be wise to remove all references to Customs ROM's from the guide. Keep it focused on the three imp. things...which you already have done very well!:good:
Thnx!
Good Job

thanks a lot buddy, yes , old tutorial was there but your's is much more newbee friendly and elobrated :good:
How perfect of you to make this thorough guide right now!
I am having KIES issues and was just in need of this "three-step" procedure for flashing stock and restoring CWM. (I'm not sure if I can flash stock through CWM, therefore I just overwrite CWM and redo the whole thing).
BR, Martin
By the way, there's a mistake in the OP.
You are writing "After seeing the GalaxyR logo immediately hit the VOLUME UP and POWER buttons"
which should say VOLUME UP and HOME buttons.
And tbh why bother to do this, if someone is already repacking every stock firmware with CWM? So that everything is done on automatic basic?

Yup buddy, confirmed. There's definitely some problem with the images. I can only see the final CWM image. All other images are broken. Tried with different browsers. Why don't you re-upload them to a site like postimg.com?

Actually I have stated here already :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861954
The mmc_cap_erase bug can actually takes place at the very first time just after the device rebooted with ICS firmware. And if you just switch off the device after flashing the kernel in order to flash the CWM. There is a chance that your device is already bricked during this process. The only safe method to do this is to replace the recovery image inside the stock firmware with a secured CWM (which using a flawless kernel), such that you have a chance to immediately flash a kernel in CWM after the device rebooted.
When the device is rebooted automatically after using odin, it will get into recovery mode first before going any further, therefore no damage can be done as the device never booted with a flawed kernel.
Therefore the method OP mentioned is actually unsafe as well.
oh btw, it is funny to see how many people that are using Galaxy tab 10.1 have bricked their device after updating to ICS 4.0.4, it seems like none of their users / devs have found that MMC_CAP_ERASE is enabled on their device as well lol But I guess I will just make a thread in a minute or so to get them noticed.
When the device is rebooted automatically after using odin, it will get into recovery mode first before going any further, therefore no damage can be done as the device never booted with a flawed kernel.

Oh well! I think now I understand what u r trying to convey. I found it a bit difficult to understand by reading the original thread that you created.
So what you are trying to say is:
After flashing the repacked ROM that you have provided via ODIN, the device won't boot into the OS! Rather it would boot directly into CWM that you have packed into the ROM. This way you can flash a secure kernel before the first boot itself! So there's no risk of bricking bcoz the Stock kernel won't ever be loaded! Ingenious my boy! Great!:good: How long have you been playing around with this?
Having said that, the guide the OP has posted is not only about flashing ICS ROM's but also for GB ROM's. What the OP can do is add an exception for ICS ROM's and a link to your repacked ROM would fit in well I guess!

Rooting procedure for SAMSUNG Galaxy Pocket Plus ( GT-S5301 )
WARNING!!! This solution provided as is (with no warranty of any kind). Be careful because the described operations rather dangerous and possibly can brick your device. Author is not responsible for your device damage.
IMPORTANT: Usage of this method will affect the state of the "Custom BIN down" counter in your device. This means that you may have problems with official warranty.
OTHER NOTICES: Solution based on ICS 4.0.4 Russian Stock firmware. It will not affect the data on your device (contacts, files etc.). No wipe\hard reset needed.
Step 1. Getting software
1. Download Odin 3.0.7 here
2. Download modified stock recovery here
3. Download update package for rooting here (downloaded from here Thanks to Phil3759)
4. Install Samsung drivers\kies from this page
P.S. Sorry for ugly file storage solution - google drive. If it will open the zip archive just click "File" menu and click "Download" (or use Ctrl+S combo).
Step 2. Flash the updates
1. Switch off the device. Hold "volume down"+"home" buttons and press power button. When device switch on release the power button but continue to hold volume down and home until Download mode warning appear. Plug in the USB cable and press volume up button to continue. The device will load in ODIN download mode.
2. Run ODIN 3.0.7. Don't change any setting (checkboxes ) - leave them in default state. Your device should appear in "ID:COM" part of the screen as serial device (i.e. "COM38") - if not check if your USB port is functional and Samsung drivers installed correctly.
3. Click on PDA button and chose modified recovery file saved during step 1.2. Don't rename or decompress the file - otherwise it will not work.
Wait until ODIN decompress the package and check the checksums. After it just press START button and wait until the process is over.
4. Copy update package for rooting on SD card and put the card in device's slot.
5. Switch off your device again. Hold "volume up"+"home" buttons and press power button to switch on. Don't release volume up and home until the recovery loaded. Using volume up and volume down buttons navigate to menu item "apply update from external card" and press power button to commit operation. Then navigate to Root_Superuser_3.1.3......zip file and press power button again.
6. Done. Your device should be rooted now. You can check it with various free programs like Root Checker available at Google Play.
You can restore the stock recovery using the same flashing procedure as described above. The stock recovery image is available here
====================
Additional notices:
- I will upload the full stock firmware repacked for ODIN in a couple of days. You can use it to restore your device to default state (except the Custom BIN down counter).
- If the counter really bothering you - just wait a little - I'll upload pre-rooted system partition package which does not affect the counter.
- Do not try just blindly install the CWM or TWRP recovery packages made for another devices. It will not work and can cause some problems because at least one difference is crucial - recovery.fstab file in most of cases will contain wrong information about partitions so you can brick your device. Now I'm working on porting CWM recovery for s5301 and I hope it will not take much time.
Take care

2013-05-27 UPDATE: CWM recovery (GUI issues) ***THIS ONE IS OBSOLETE - USE NEXT SECTION BELOW "UPDATE: Working CWM recovery (GUI problems fixed)"***
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CWM Recovery for S5301 (coriplus) is now available. Unfortunately there is still an issue with screen resolution but I suppose I'll fix it very soon. Despite an uncomfortable picture those people who needs backup\restore feature urgently can use it right now. Everything seems to be functional but if you discover some issues - please let me know.
1. Fakeflash zip image is here. Use it from previousely flashed Hacked Stock recovery: pure stock recovery will not load it.
To run it - put the update.zip to sdcard, boot to recovery, navigate to "apply update from external card" and choose the update.zip. Done! Now you are in CWM recovery and you can backup\restore your system. After rebooting the recovery you will see the Hacked Stock recovery again (this is what fakeflash means - CWM loads in memory but after reboot you have your old recovery again. So keep the update.zip on SD card to use it again).
2. ODIN image is here. This one for those who really hates the stock recovery and ready to run CWM permanently even with ugly screen resolution. Flsh with ODIN as described above.
When I fix the screen resolution I'll inform you about it here.
Enjoy.

2013-06-13 UPDATE: The way how to get device rooted and CWM recovery flashed without affecting the counter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is a way to get root and CWM recovery without affecting the down bin counter:
Step 1: Flash the pre-rooted system partition via ODIN (it will not affect the counter and will not erase your personal data). Now you have rooted device but it is still has useless stock recovery.
Step 2: Copy recovery.img on SD card and insert it in your device.
Step 3: Turn the device on, wait untill OS loaded. Go to Settings -> Developer options and switch on the Usb Debugging.
Step 4: Connect USB cable, choose "Camera PTP" in USB PC Connection menu on your device - this menu appeares in notification area (that's important to get your sdcard mounted).
Step 5: Go to console on your PC and execute the following commands:
$ adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # dd if=/mnt/extSdCard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6
Voila! You have your device rooted, you have CWM recovery flashed and the down bin counter wasn't affected.
=============================================================================================
=============================================================================================
2013-06-13 UPDATE: Russian Stock Firmware S5301XXAMC1 repacked for ODIN
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As promised please find attached full stock firmware adapted for flashing with ODIN. It's non-rooted, with stock recovery. It will not erase your data so do not forget to perform factory reset if you need it.

Hi, I didn't have an external sd card at this moment so what I did was flash CWM and then sideload the root package, pretty simple, so you can add this method as an alternative, it worked pretty good.

1) All fakeflash versions does not affect the counter (only the ODIN flashed images do it).
2) All fakeflashes are temporary (just loading in memory and active until reboot).
3) Unfortunately the stock recovery doesn't aloow to load CWM fakeflash or rooting package, so you need to flash CWM or at least hacked stock recovery via ODIN (an this operation will definitely affect the counter).
Take care

Obviously the sideload should work ok as it is one of CWM features After you flashed CWM you can use all its' tools - sdcard is just simple common scenario. Anyways thanks for feedback - I'll add notice regarding adb sideload in the main post )

Almost forget - I've uploaded the prerooted system.img as I promised (check 2013-06-08 UPDATE section of the main post in this thread).
Use ODIN to flash this image (PDA section).
It will not affect the counter. All your applications and personal data will survive because they are on another partition, but anyway It's strictly recommended to make a backup copy before flasing. As a result you'll get the rooted device without replacing stock recovery and without affecting the "down bin counter".

Actually the first post in this thread contains step-by-step description of rooting process. And it should work for any s5301 device. But judging by the signature of your post, you have s5300 device which is copletely different. So I suppose you have to search this forum for solution developed exactly for your device...

Yes. It should work on any coriplus (S5301). I flash it on UAE device for example.

Anyone have a link to an official step-by-step root for a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3113 with 4.2.2 Android installed? I have searched and found so many threads but they all seem to have issues and nothing is hard coded to say this is the official way to root your Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 running 4.2.2. I have done my HP Touchpad just fine with an official release but this Samsung tab is giving me all kinds of options. Would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

I seen this thread but was lost on this information
SuperSU v1.65 from Chainfire, SuperSU: "su" in "adb shell" without any prompt!
Philz Touch Recovery 5.15.0
BusyBox v1.21.1-stericson
Remove all existing root and busybox before installing the new one
Fix busybox symlink, prevent it conflict to Android toolbox
sysrw and sysro script for remounting /system read write or read only
Backup /etc/install-recovery.sh script to /etc/install-recovery.sh.backup and /system/recovery-from-boot.p patch to /system/recovery-from-boot.p.backup if exists, so we can restore it if necessary
Single step for Philz Touch recovery and root!
Based off single step root made by @ketut.kumajaya but he doesn't develop for it anymore so I took over.
Is that relevant to rooting the device because it has no links to download any of the programs it's talking about....
Thanks
This are only the features and description what it contains and what happens
You need only the *.tar.md5 file, PC, drivers and Odin.
Video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAvze-VNzj8 (only the file is updated now - not the same file in the video - but same procedure)
If KIES is installed: Uninstall it ! But don´t let it delete the driver!
If it´s not installed use this Drivers : http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/c...Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_v1.5.25.0-retail.exe
Enable USB Debugging on your device and connect it untill all drivers installed. After that disconnect it.
P311X (Tablet with wifi only/Tablet with IR Blaster and wifi.):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1f983kbCtHlS0x3TGlkalZFMzg/edit?usp=sharing
Don´t extract it! You need this *.tar.md5 -File as it is! Don´t rename it!
Download Odin3 1.87: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1068597&d=1337343150
extract the zip and run Odin as Administrator
Now boot your device into download-mode.
Now connect Device to your pc and wait untill odin shows "Added"
select *.tar.md5 file as PDA in Odin
Make sure "Re-Partition" and "F. Reset Time" unchecked,
"Auto Reboot" checked!
Press start and wait for reboot.
Thanks!! That's what I needed!!

No, use the file i linked to, it contains PhilZ Touch recovery and all rooting files. You only need to flash this using Odin.
Wow ok great that was too easy, all rooted and working.
Thanks again I really appreciate your help and this great website!!!

J327T-T1 U1-U2-U3(Bit.1.2.3) (Bootloader Locked on U3) Root&PatchCert Stock FIrmware
Hi,
After 5 days Searching Google And Digging I've Found A Way TO Gain Root Access
on j327T on U3(Bit3)
**PLEASE DON'T DO IT IF YOU ARE NOT A GOOD READER AND JUST PUSH BUTTON & IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE**
Thanks to @ashyx
i've Found This Thread But it's not for U3 and U2 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j3-2017/how-to/root-sampwned32-samsung-j3-prime-sm-t3761497)
------------------------------------------------------
EXPLANATION:
1-I HAVE FLASHED A MIXED FIRMWARE SOME PARTS COMBINATION AND SOME PARTS STOCK
2-AN EXPLOIT FOR ROOT JUST ENABLING USB DEBUGGING AND RUN IT DEVICE ROOTED
****3-BUT THE FIRMWARE THAT I HAVE FLASHED NOT FOR DAILY USING IT'S JUST FOR ROOTING.
****AS YOU KNOW WHEN YOU ROOT YOUR PHONE AND FLASH IT AGAIN ROOT ACCESS WILL REVOKED AT 4 STEP YOU SHOULD MAKE YOUR ROOT AS FILE SYSTEM
4-AFTER ROOT WE NEED TO ACCEPT ROOT ACCESS TO SYSTEM(BECAUSE WE NEED TO FLASH USEFUL STOCK ROM WITH ROOT AT ONCE)
------------------------------------------
PREREQUISITES:
-J327T-J327T1 REPAIR IMEI FIRMWARE (LINK)
-FlashFireAPP(Link)
-SuperSU_Systemmode(Link)
-Stock Firmware That i used TMB-J327TUVU3ARK4 (LINK)
--------------------------------------------
Steps:
Step1:
Extract J327t-t1 repair imei
YOU Have 2 Directory In it
-J327T PATCH WITH CHIMERA TOOL
-Roott
1>FLASH ROM SAME BIT
IF BIT 1 OR 2 THAN FLASH J327T-T1_Rev1_Rev2_ROOT_File.TAR
OR IF BIT 3 FLASH J327T-T1_Rev3_ROOT_File.TAR
2.WAIT FOR BOOTUP PHONE......THIS CAN TAKE 15MINT
DONT WORRY....
3.ENABLE USB DEBUG
4.IN Roott DIrectory we have and Archive name Root-Script Extract it.
5.RUN ROOT.BAT (PHONE WILL AUTO REBOOT NOW)
6.PHONE ROOT DONE........
------------------------------------------
*****Now we Are Rooted but ROM is Not Stabe We should Install Stable ROM with Root***
STEP2:
-Install Flashfire
-Extract 4 file Stock Firmware that i linked up and copy it to main directory of your internal storage
-copy supersu-systemmode.zip that i linked to internal storage and dont extract it.
-Go to phone setting Change Date & Time to Year 2013(Because Flashfire Closed up if date is over 2013)
As Here I'm Just Copy Text From ()Post(with a little Changes), Thank you For Explanation How to Work By Flash Fire.
Instruction:
1.Run Flashfire and agree when it asks for root permission.
In the main screen tap the + button then select Flash firmware Package and locate the stock firmware package you downloaded.(*****Our Firmware IS 4 File You Should Do it 4 Time First BL then AP and .......)Then GO to next step
Select Bl file
Again repeat And Select AP(here You Should Uncheck Boot.img)
Again CP
Again CSC
IMPORTANT: Uncheck the BOOT partition. Leave the rest enabled. Tap the tick top right when done. in the next screen tap EverRoot and uncheck Inject SuperSU and Preserve recovery. Tap the tick top right when done.
2.In the main screen again tap the + and then select Flash zip or OTA and locate the SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SYSTEMMODE.zip
Check Mount /system read/write and leave everything else unchecked and then tap the tick when done.
Check you have the following selected on the main screen:
Flash Firmware package - The stock firmware with BOOT disabled.
Example:
BL_J327TUVU3ARK4_CL14795764_QB20828945_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
{X} Param
{X} .......
---------------------
AP_J327TUVU3ARK4_CL14795764_QB20828945_REV00_user_low_ship_meta.tar
[X] System
[X] Recovery
[X} .........
------------------
and Other Files
----------
Flash zip or OTA - System mode Supersu
EverRoot - disabled
Reboot - Normal
Ensure that System mode supersu is last on the list after the firmware or it won't root the new firmware.
Now tap FLASH and let Flashfire do it's thing.
--------------------------------------------------

I don't know why this post has only one thanx or replay. but it works. THANK YOU MAN!
My Problem is even after I flashed back to stock with flashfire, it still goes into "Kernel Panic" mode. And also, it brings a warning, saying your device is flashed with unautorised software, reboot. Do you have any fix?
Thank You Again!
