Hi guys
at first thanks for time you spend to read my problam :angel:
i have Samsung Galaxy SL i9003
and i still work on 2.3.6 and i hate it and it's very and super lagy :crying:
i know how to setup stock rom from odin , it's very easy
but i really can't get how setup custom rom
andi don't know any thing about custom rom ,
and hope any one tell me how to do and explan it to me simpely , not good in english
and tell me the best custom rom that i can use it every day and work fine and fast , and get links for me
i speak arabic & i'm not good in english , sorry for my bad english guys

All custom roms for android 4.x have few bugs. So, if you are okay with that, I will suggest installing CM11. It works nice except for few bugs here and there.
But, if you prefer a fully stable rom, you have to stick with android 2.3.6. In that case, I will suggest FlyOnGB rom. Also, you can try doing a factory reset and see if that helps.

As for setting up odin, you can use it only to install md5 or tar files. nearly all custom rom are uploaded as zip file, and are to be flashed from recovery mode. You will need to copy the zip file to phone, and boot into recovery using Vol Up + Home + Power key. Of course, you will need to root your phone to go into recovery mode.

Custom roms are already rooted, so you don't need to do anything on them. To root a stock rom, you need to flash the cf-root for that particular rom, and then restart the phone. Use this link to download the cf-root file. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1331253
To flash the cf-root file, first you need to flash the stock rom, and restart the phone. Then you can use Odin to flash the cf-root just like you flash a rom.
Google apps are your default android apps (play music, maps, google search and such). You don't need these necessarily, as you can download them from play store too. Few roms have bugs with play store apps, therefore they give you modified version of them in that thread.
If you want to flash the google apps, you can do it just like you do it for custom rom. After installing custom rom, just reboot to recovery mode. Now, select the google apps zip file, and install it the same way you installed the custom rom.
If you are stuck, follow the steps from those link as it is. Use this link for more help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894737

install recovery mode

Hi guys sorry for my lot questions
but I'm new and I want to descover everything in any thing that I use
okay
now I want to flash a custom rom on my phone(LG OPTIMUS ME/P350)
I learned how but the first step always be to go into the recovery mode when booting up.So I tried but it restore the default android
then I learned that I should install recovery mode(TWRP or CWM)
So I want to know
Is there a special version for every phone??
If so where can I find my on version
if no where can I find the general version for android 2.2.2
Look in the forum for your specific device. I'm pretty sure there will be a guide there.
Recovery mode is different for all phones.
Nice I will search And you ill have a very fast feedback
thnx for quick replay
Is it good
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080911
thing can I do it Also these steps are using adb
Also What is the kernel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17499336
how can it help me
A kernel is the underlying process that drives the operating system and manages the resources. Unless you really know what you're doing, I would strongly suggest that you don't replace your current kernel.
The first link looks fine for installing a custom recovery partition. Take note that the install process requires root access to the phone.
You can get root by following the instructions here.
There should be a link somewhere on the forum for you to download ADB. If you can't find it, you can install the Android SDK from Google, it includes ADB.
Ok I will try to try (nice sentence)them today
And wait for the feedback thnx for replays
Other question I want to flash v10f firmware

[Q] I need to make "update.zip" working from stock ICS recovey..

Hello
I need to create "update.zip" file that I can apply (flash) using the stock recovery that comes with stock ICS 4.0.3 .. Changing some wallpaper files and notifications....
I found this link :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732957
But I am afaraid that this will not work in ICS , or at least it needs CWM ...
I don't want to use CWM recovery , reason = I have to unlock the bootloader and loose all my data ...
Thanks
You can try to root your device with SuperOneClick and install ROM Manager in order to install CWM.

Now back to topic question :
I need to make "update.zip" working from stock ICS recovey..any tool or how to ?
To my knowledge it needs to be signed by google to do it through stock recovery. We have no current way to sign something like that, which is why we use custom recoveries.

Can't the dev gurus "imitate" the signature from a stock ROM zip ?

Election Day said:
Wouldn't it be a whole lot easier to root with SuperOneClick, install Titanium Backup, unlock the bootloader, install ClockworkMod and then restore all your data?
So far Google's signatures haven't been cracked as far as I know, and doing so would probably only cause them to change them. Also, the stock recovery has far less features, such as nandroid capabilities which are very useful if you want to tweak your ROM every now and then.
I know losing the data can be annoying, but if you back it up properly it won't be too bad. Now you're just waiting for the point to bite the bullet and do an oem unlock, because you know that deep down inside you want to. =)

Can I install SuperOneClick from the phone ? Have you got a link ?

Help with CWM

Okey, first of all Im pretty noob in this topics, second of all my english is not that good. Third, my mobile is a GT-S7500L
By some reason I uninstalled the play store, so I wanted it back, I downloaded Rom manager or CWM I think so I could install Gapps in recovery like I read, the thing is I installed the wrong one, because I had GB and the Gapps were for ICS. After that I rebooted and the GB didnt run, after rebooting just the CWM window started. So I decided to install the stock rom. I searched it in SAMmobile I think, I dowloaded it and the screen send me a message that says (bad) cant install. So I downloaded other two custom roms from here, Jellybread and elruki-rom, these roms install normal, but after pressing reboot, the phone still send me to the screen of CWM, I mean its says installation complete but after y reboot, it still send me to the CWM screen!
Please someone help me, I really need my phone for work. I need to know how to fix it, or at least know that I can fix it and its not completely wasted. Helppp pleasee!!!

Hey thanks for answering, I fixed the boot problem yesterday, the problem now is Im with a custom rom, gellybread, do you know where can I find the stock rom? I searched in Sammobile but when I download it, it doesnt work, its a zip, do you know where can I find it? Gellybread works good but there's a bug and I cant use wifi.
Or maybe Im doing it wrong, the Rom is .zip, how do I flash that kind of files?

Baffled about my Tab 2

I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 gt3113. It is rooted,and I want to install a rom. The factory rom/kernel lags...get stuck ....and with all I have read the roms out there make a big difference. But I'm having a problem....I'm using rom manager and rom toolbox and I cant seem to install a rom. It load the rom whether from the computer or the download option but when it boot into recovery I get an error saying that the sd card is not found and I just end up manually re-booting the device....Ive tried this a few times choosing different things at the screen...a(abd....cashe....external storage....) it all ends up the same.....anyone have any idea what this means? I'm learning as I go....and was thinking about un-rooting my device then rooting it again.....maybe I did something wrong?

For starters, stay away from ROM Manager! It's known to cause different sorts of problems on different devices while installing CWM and ROMs. I have only good things to say about ROM Toolbox in terms of tweaks and utilities, but never used it for ROM installation, and would suggest not to. Just download the ROM you want from its original source, put it on internal or external storage, and flash using your recovery (my personal all-time favourite is PhilZ Touch CWM, not sure what you are using). Do the proper wipes before flashing (full wipe is always recommended, especially between stock and CM/AOSP ROMs. Make sure you also flash other possibly applicable components (depends on the ROM and your preferences) -- gapps, kernel, etc. See if it works that way. I just don't see any reason to use 3rd-party apps for "ROM management" -- the simpler the process, the better.
I'm going to try to put a new rom on the tab tonight without using a program,i have a question though...I have to press power and the up volume or power and the down volume when i flash the new rom

Man, that sounds scary! You really need to do some reading on the basics, before you screw something up.
You can flash ZIP files from recovery, including ROMs, kernels, recoveries, and apps. However, you need Odin, a PC connection, and a download mode on your tab in order to flash things like official ROM packages (typically in tar.md5 format).
If you want to flash the ROM in zip format, you can do that in recovery. In general, if you have problems doing that, your other option is Odin and a stock ROM; then you can start over.
Looking closely at your photo, you have a stock recovery. You can only flash signed zips from it, which means you won't be able to flash custom ROMs or kernels. I would suggest to start with flashing a custom recovery (look up PhilZ Touch CWM, it's the best). This will make things easier for you.
P.S.: Sorry, didn't mean to sound harsh... It seems things got a bit confusing in the process, so questions and answers didn't really line up...
well ....I have been doin a lot of research,maybe too much lol....but the only thing I can get outta all of it is that to flash a kernel or rom or both I need to go into recovery(power and up volume) and do a wipe of the cashe and install.....then it seems to trail off there with a ok now your done go enjoy....
I cant seem to find any kinda description of what happens in between the wiping of the cashe/devlick and the install...I keep ending up in the recovey section wheather I use rom manager rom toolbox or just me following directions. I will say this though.....I do not see the cwm logo in the recovery....I stiil have the android and he lays there dead then does a quick flash to an error message then I get the menu....but there is no "mount and storage" and "backup and restore" option for me to choose from I put the tab into recovery mode and took a picture....its in the previous post.
I am still using the stock rom and kernel btw....Im not sure if I have mentioned that. I havnt been able to flash anything.

No harm done lol I appreciate all the help.....I'm a bit new at this,but I learn quick.

is there a specific PhilZ Touch for the tab 2? or can I just download it to the computer and send it to my tab via odin?

Not sure exactly what and how you did previously, but the fact is that you've got a stock recovery now. You need a custom recovery - it doesn't have to be PhilZ, even though I strongly recommend it. You can install standard CWM, too, no problem with that. To install PhilZ, you either need CWM to be already installed, or you need to use Odin.
For details and install instructions on PhilZ CWM, look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202667
Oh, BTW, as an alternative to Odin, look up the Mobile Odin by Chainfire on Play Store. It allows you to flash Odin packages from your device directly. Very useful tool! Free version will do, but the paid one has more features.

Yes, there is. Look in the thread I linked above.
Yep.....i got it stuck in forever boot using mobile odin.... Uugggh....I'm gonna return everything to stock and re-root it.....what ever I did the first time rooting and installing cwm I must a missed a step or something. I'll repost my progress when I'm back to stock and rooted properly
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!
YAY!!! Merry Christmas to me!!! I unrooted and repaired my tab 2 7.0 . I also re-rooted it and installed philztouch and everything is installed properly this time. Funny thing though.....after I got the tab working and before I re-rooted it...I tried to do the factory update to 4.2.2 ,since now I'm only on 4.1.1,it said that I had the latest updates available and my apps and phone list didn't auto load like when I first got my tab....hhhmmmm...anyways it works now and all root stuff and twrp is properly :highfive::highfive: only one more question...now that TWRP is working....when I want to download a kernel or rom do I leave it in Zipped form when I put it on the tab and the tab unzips it and flashs it or do I unzip it? .....sorry for all the basic questions but ya cant learn unless you ask questions

Well, congrats, and merry Christmas! A bit confused - are you using PhilZ CWM, or TWRP?
As for zip files, leave them as they are, don't unzip - the recovery will install them. Just a suggestion - whenever possible, especially for large files like complete ROMs, verify the MD5 checksum to make sure your file is not corrupt during download.
just went into recovery and it says Philz touch 6

In the end, I just used a previous version of Odin (3.4 instead of 3.9) to flash an original stock rom.
Now the problem is that I have a new CWM that works with the volume up, volume down button, and this menu:
- reboot system now
- apply update from ADB
- apply update from external storage
- zipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- apply update from cache
Since the rom is not really good, i wanted to flash another one (one of those we just talked about), but the backup i did with the previous CWM i had (Philz Advanced CWM 6.08.90) is nowhere in the tablet anymore (i dont have any sd card) and i dont know how to make a back up with this CWM...
So now the question is how to make a backup with this version of CWM so I can try to flash other roms, or how to get the version that i had before without takin any risk of brickin the device (so i can make another backup and try to flash another)

Now the problem is that I have a new CWM that works with the volume up, volume down button, and this menu:
- reboot system now
- apply update from ADB
- apply update from external storage
- zipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- apply update from cache
Since the rom is not really good, i wanted to flash another one (one of those we just talked about), but the backup i did with the previous CWM i had (Philz Advanced CWM 6.08.90) is nowhere in the tablet anymore (i dont have any sd card) and i dont know how to make a back up with this CWM...
So now the question is how to make a backup with this version of CWM so I can try to flash other roms, or how to get the version that i had before without takin any risk of brickin the device (so i can make another backup and try to flash another)

Are you sure the new recovery is CWM and not stock recovery?? If you flashed stock ROM, it should've given you stock recovery again...
(Does it show the CWM hat logo in the background?)

Actually, yea its the stock recovery, so should i reroot the phone to install CWM, make a backup just in case, flash another stock rom which i find better, and then try to flash this one in recovery mode?

Hi, I have bought a samsung tab 3 sm-t311 in China and since they everything related to google, I rooted it and installed CWM,
I installed this rom here with CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2404877
Installation was successful but I get this messages when launching my device:
- setup wizard isn't responding. Do you want to close it?
I close it, then:
- Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped.
I press ok, then:
Unfortunately, Samsung keyboard has stopped.
I press ok then:
- Process system isn't responding. Do you want to close it?
I press ok
And it keeps coming back over and over...
What should I do?

Try fix or patch.
Or come back to stock rom.

Yup, I think you'd better to start over again. Try take a look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2401901
It works well for my SM-T311 :good: Then you can reroot and make a backup from TWRP easily.
I also suggest you to take a look at this too : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522091 From there, you can get PhilZ touch recovery based on CWM v.6.0.4.5
