Hmmm, sorry but I'm confused. If you're on cm and you can open recovery I can only think you are still rooted (check this with root checker app) so not sure why you think you need to root. I see you tried to restore, what to? I can only suggest flashing back to a stock rom and then do the rooting process again.

Dude, I've no idea what you're going on about! You seem to be quoting your own posts and replying to them, and they don't make sense! Go to sammobile.com enter your model number under firmware, find your country and download it. Then flash it with odin!

[Q] hide the fact i rooted my phone from Samsung repair center

Hi!
I have a GT-B5512 Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos and i just flashed it with Odin and now want to send it in to Samsung. Will they be able to tell i have rooted my phone before? Thanks.
I'm pretty sure they'll see it if you send it in rooted - just un-root it for now and redo it when it comes back

God damn it. I just did the entire process and yes it shows 0 on custom binary count now. But I didnt check if it showed 1 before clearing. So it wasnt that much fun. But probably it was 1 before, right?
Anyway. Thank you VERY MUCH. I wouldnt want to loose the chance for a brand new phone because of a stupid number saved somewhere deep in the jungle of my phone memory.
What I liked very much that i had to root my phone again in order to be able to disguise the fact it is rooted. Its like committing a crime to conceal a crime. Very criminal!
Anyway. What do I do now? Do I have to flash through Odin again to get rid of the root? Because it is still rooted now, right?
u just flash the unroot.zip using following link it works for b5512..no need to flash through odin if u flash through odin then ur custom bin counter will change again.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25140479

OMG that message I got 30 minutes too late. I just flashed with Odin again. But I thought flashing a original Samsung stock Rom is perfectly legal. Isnt it? Also they can figure out easily that I flashed a ROM because the phone is from Greece and came with a Greek keyboard and a greek ROM. I had to flash a European ROM in order to be able to write in normal letters on the keyboard. I dont even have the original ROM any more and its not on the Internet either. So...
Don't you think its fine if I just send it in like it is now? Unrooted with a original Samsung stock ROM?
thanks! i hit the thanks button as well

thanks but not on the list. I think the name of the greek ROM ends with XXKL8. I will call in at Samsung as soon as its business hours and ask them again about it. But I know a Polish guy who asked Polish Samsung about the same thing and he got the answer that flashing a original Samsung ROM does NOT void the warranty.
just do the unrooting process.above...then there you go ...your phone is not rooted now..

it is necessary to back to unlocked fw to update it? tks!
I followed the exact instructions from the first post (4 or 5 times) but I still don't have root access. I'm running I9505XXUAMDM
When I flashed the .md5 in ODIN it all appeared to go fine - it rebooted to recovery, flashed SuperSU, wiped cache, etc, but TiBU and root check both tell me I don't have root access. SuperSU is installed, and running SU from terminal emulator gives me a # prompt. Root Validator hangs at "executing tests" when I ask it to check for root.

Yes you can i think that you can just copy files and move it from internal memory to external SD card you just have to find the game files. Or i think you can use program like App2SD

i'll take it as, "which is the best custom rom out there for my phone"
well, it depends, somebody don't need/like their vibration, they would choose CM10.1, which has no vibration and NFC. Both are not working for now. (for some baseband, calling and mobile network don't work)
if you need the vibration and NFC deadly, but you still want your "galaxy nexus-like" user-interface, then Babba ROM would be your choice, but the difference between babba rom and stock rom isn't too big, just aosp launcher and modded status bar, android 4.2 gallery and android 4.2 camera. others are just stock (no offence here, op)
PAC-man isn't ready yet, RIL isnt workin which is a great problem
pandorium needs the stock ROM of XXAMD1 (or something else, can't remember), you need this XXAMD1 (or another one), then install cwm, then flash, if you don't flash the required stock rom first, you would face issues. it's a nice rom but its too complicated and time consuming for me to go back to stock and get cwm again and flash this rom.
so: cm10.1 or Babba rom would be great
for stock rom download:
go to sammobile.com and search for your phone and your corresponding country's firmware.
Edit: just in case you don't know, cause you seem to be new to rooting and flashing.. custom rom can only be flashed with clockworkmod recovery, stock rom can only flashed with odin! (unless otherwise specified)
click the thanks button if i helped :good: :good:
Thank you for the detailed reply.
You guessed it right i'm absolutely new to Andriod. I was an Apple boy before and androids are totally other part of world if know what I mean. As I have the NON P version NFC is not my thing. And I read CM 10.1 is for the P version only.
I'm attaching my phone details.
Check the baseband, firmware etc. What would you suggest now?
Also keep in mind I need to root just for the sake of transferring apps to sd card.
After root will I be able to update my phone if Samsung releases a new update like android 4.2.2 ?
And yes I did thank you !
