Mar 29, 2013 Ξ57 CommentsRoot and Install CWM Recovery on Verizon Galaxy S3 SCH-I535 Android 4.1.1/4.1.2
posted by Rakesh Shukla
Rooting an Android device has many privileges. Having rooted your phone once, you are able to use third-party custom ROMs and mods that require a custom recovery to be installed. Besides, there are hundreds,or say thousands, of app that are capable of doing wondrous things and enhance your phones performance and usability. But this humble eulogy of rooting cannot undermine the hazards associated with it.
Rooting a Samsung Galaxy device is much easier than rooting any device manufactured by other OEMs but when it comes to rooting a Samsung phone from Verizon, things get a little more complicated and rounded. However, complicated it might be, it cannot stop our great Devs to crack the nut. All props and credit for the method described here goes to XDA member open1your1eyes0.
Disclaimer:
Please note that the procedure of unlocking the bootloader, rooting and installing a custom recovery on your Verizon Galaxy S3 SCH-I535 is considered risky. Moreover, it will also void the warranty of your phone. Proceed only when you are sure what you are going to do and understand the seriousness of things. More than anything, be careful while following the steps.
Looking for Rooting Tutorial for Some Other S3 Variant?
Take a look all Galaxy S3 rooting tutorials here.
Prerequisites:
•Charge your phone to have at least 60% of battery juice.
•Rooting does not wipe any data from your phone but we would strongly recommend that you backup all your contacts, messages, call-log, apps, etc. Here are some good free apps to help you with backing up your data.
•Put your device in USB Debugging mode from Settings> Developer Options>
Required Downloads:
Since this tutorial is for Galaxy S3 I535 on Android 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 both, download the files accordingly- only different being the stock bootchain file. For the sake of convenience put all the downloaded files in one folder.
These are important but mandatory files. If you have them, just skip:
•Download the Odin tool and extract the zip on your desktop: Odin3-v3.07.zip – Mirror
•Download Samsung USB Drivers and install on your computer. Skip if you already have it: Download
These two files are meant to be downloaded by all:
•Download the custom Bootchain file: VRALEC.bootchain.tar.md5 – Mirror
•Download CWM Recovery: CWM6023TouchVZW.tar.md5 — Mirror
Download one of the following files depending on what you want:
•Download SuperSU file (for Root Only): CWM-SuperSU-v0.99.zip
•Download SuperUser file to (Root and Unlock Bootloader both): SuperSU_Bootloader_FIXED.zip — Mirror
Download one of the following bootchain files depending on firmware version of your Galaxy S3 SCH-I535:
•Bootchain file for VRBLK3 (Jelly Bean 4.1.1): VRBLK3_Bootchain.tar.md5 — Mirror
•Bootchain file for VRBMB1 (Jelly Bean 4.1.2): VRBMB1_Bootchain.tar.md5 — Mirror
Root, Unlock Bootloader and Install CWM:
Already made the preparations and downloaded the required stuff? It’s action time now. Be careful and proceed.
1.Copy the “SuperSU_Bootloader_FIXED.zip” file to your phone’s internal or external SD card.
2.Turn off your Galaxy S3 and boot it into Download mode: hold the Volume Down + Home + Power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds till you see a warning screen asking you to press Volume Up key to continue. Pressing this key will take you to Download or Odin mode.
3.Open the Odin folder and run the .exe file present there and then connect your Galaxy S3 to PC via USB cable. Wait till Odin detects your device and you see ID:COM port turning Blue and “Added!!” text at the message box below.
4.Now we will flash the custom bootchain file so make sure that “Auto Reboot” and “F Reset Time” are selected on Odin. Then click the PDA button and select the “VRALEC.bootchain.tar.md5″ file and click on “Start” button on Odin.
5.The bootchain file will be flashed in a few seconds and you will see “RESET!!” message with blue signal. Your phone will reboot automatically. Close the Odin window and disconnect the USB cable.
6.Now you need to install the ClockworkMod touch recovery. To install it, boot the phone into Download mode again (as you did in Step #2 above).
7.Relaunch the Odin, connect the phone using the cable and uncheck the “Auto Reboot” option on Odin.
8.Click on the PDA button, select the “CWM6023TouchVZW.tar.md5″ file and hit the “Start” button.
9.CWM Recovery will be flashed to your phone followed by “PASS!!”. This time your phone will not reboot automatically. Close the Odin window.
10.Now pull out the back cover of the phone and remove the battery. Place the battery to its place after about 30 seconds.
11.Then boot the phone into ClockworkMod recovery mode. To do this, hold the Volume Up + Home + Power buttons simultaneously. Keep the 3 keys pressed till your phone vibrates and when it does, release the Power button but keep the other 2 keys pressed till you a gray background with blue text the clockworkmod recovery written on the top of the screen.
12.Since it’s touch recovery, you can either select options by tapping, or using the volume and power keys.
13.Okay, now go to “install zip from sdcard> choose zip from sdcard” and select the “SuperSU_Bootloader_FIXED.zip” file.
14.Confirm your choice by selecting “yes’ and let the installation finish.
15.When it’s done, go back and select “reboot system now”. But before your phone boots, pull out the battery and place it back after a few seconds.
16.Once again, and for the third time. you will have to boot the device in Download Mode. You know well how to do it.
17.Relaunch Odin, connect the phone to PC, click on PDA button and select the stock bootchain file (either VRBLK3 or VRBMB1) depending on what file you have downloaded.
18.Click the “Start” button to initiate the installation. When it is finished, the phone will reboot automatically.
So, now you have a fully rooted Verizon Galaxy S3 SCH-I535 with unlocked bootloader and ClockworkMod recovery installed. To verify the root, download any app that requires root permissions. However, there is a specific app for the purpose and you can find it at the Play Store
Everything went sucessfully and my phone was rooted. I did encounter one problem and that was I couldn't get the CWM Touch Recovery to stick. I found out with the help of a few forum members that I needed to select "yes" on the propmt to overwrite the stock recovery. (the warnign I got stated ROM will flash back to stock. Would you like to fix this? YES= This can not be undone/ NO or Go Back. I was selecting go back because I was not sure on what to select and CWM would never stick it would always reboot back to stock. Last night I did select yes, and it worked fine.) I went back and fixed the issue, and now CWM Touch Recovery is flashed on my phone. I also used Terminal Emulater to back up my IMEI.
My question is, because I initailly did'nt flash the CWM Touch Recovery the right way (right way meaning selecting yes) does this mean I didn't unlock my bootloader? I'm a complete noob and just want to make sure I have things in order.
Thanks,

Take a look at this thread to determine if you bootloader is unlocked.

[Completed] R

Alright for the past two week I had searched every corner of the internet looking up on how to install the “MOAR ROM”. Just getting the same answer install with “TWRP”. And to install TWRP you had to root your phone. So now I had to search on the internet and find a tutorial on how to root my phone. In the end I had to go through three different tutorials on how to get the MOAR ROM flashed on my phone. And where I had to go to get the files to download.
Well so you don’t have to do the long, and arbitrary tasks that I had to go through. Here is a tutorial – Telling you from start to finish on what you need to do.
This is for the Sprint Variant of the Samsung Galaxy S5. I don’t know if this will work on other version of the S5.
I apologize on the crudeness of this tutorial, a lot of this was written from memory.
All of the software you need to download is provided by clicking on words that are highlighted in brownish tan-ish color
I don’t not nor do the developers of the software you use are responsible for the lost of data and/or lost of your phone. You assume responsible for modifying your phone.
I have not created any of the software provide in this tutorial.
Step 1. Make sure you have VPU1BOA6 (Lollipop) OS installed on your phone.
-To see if you have this already installed your phone.
- You go to your phones “Setting”
- From there go to “About Device”
- You will then see “Software Version” and underneath that you will see “G900PVPU1BOA6”
If you see “OA6” you are good to go on to step 2. for rooting your device. So Please Continue. If you do not see this that is okay all you need to do is either update your phone or you need to flash the appropriate OS on your phone. To do this continue on to step 1a.
Step 1a. If you fail to see “OA6” in under “Software Version” then you will have to download some files.
- You will need to download Odin
- Then you will need to download the OS “Lollipop”
- Once you have both of these move to step 1b.
Step 1b. Warning!!! Installing this OS will wipe your phone of all its data. Highly recommend that you create back of contacts, photos, videos, etc.
- Now unzip Odin, and run SM-G900P_OA6_FullRestore.exe (This is will give you the Lollipop OS it will unzip it to the file destination you wish)
-Run Odin, Click on the AP button – A window should appear, navigate to where you unzip the OS and click on it.
- Now it is time to move on to set 1c.
Step 1c. Now it is time to put your phone into Recovery Mode and to connect to the computer.
- Power down the phone, once the phone is power down hold the “Home + Power + Volume Down Buttons” Do not let go until you see text show up in the upper left corner of the screen.
- Now some of you might see a screen that gives you a Warning about custom firmware and roms. And press up on the volume on button to continue or press volume down to restart the phone. If you want to continue press up.
- If you have elected to press up then you are awesome and it is time to continue on your route to being rooted. Now you will see the Android Guy “Downloading” or something to that effect. Plug your phone into your computer
- Now move to step 1d.
Step 1d. Again Warning: You will lose your phone data. Continue at your own risk.
- Press Start, on Odin once your phone is connected to your computer. Let it do its thing. Go make some coffee.
- Once it has installed the new OS go ahead and setup your “Slight used Phone”
-You ready for step 2. I think you are.
Step 2. Alright you have decide to root your phone, because you love all the options the Android OS has already provided you. But you know your phone can do more and you want more and deserve all of it.
- So first thing you need is the rooting tool and Odin if you don’t have download it. You will also need to two other additional files. SUPERSU and Knox Removal Mod Do Not Unzip these two (2) additional files.
-Now that you have the all four (4) items downloaded. Unzip the rooting tool and Odin. Now run Odin and click the AP button and find the rooting tool you just unzipped. Now let’s put your phone into download mode and connect to the computer.
- To put your phone into Download mode shut it down and hold the “Home + Power + Volume Down Buttons” until you see a Words in the upper left hand corner of the screen and a Paragraph that Say “Warning. Custom firmware Blah Blah Blah…etc. Press Volume Up to continue or Volume down to restart phone” Press up then Android guy shows up with downloading underneath him. Connect your phone at this point to the computer.
-Press start on Odin. Let it do its thing it should only take to 5 minutes at the most. Now that it is done. Shut your device completely down.
-Go to step 2a.
Step 2a. You will need a Micro SD card. Add those two other files. To the root of the SD card.
- Move to step 2b.
Step 2b. You need to put your phone into recovery mode.
- Your device should be completely shut off now. To put into recovery mode you need to hold down these buttons (Home + Power + Volume UP Buttons). You should see in the upper left hand corner of the screen text saying Recovery…
- You will see a list of options you will want to click to on “apply update from external storage” Find one of the two files you add to the root of the SD card and click. It should start to apply the update. Once that is complete. Repeat the process from Step 2b. for the other file.
- Go to Step 3.
Step 3. So you have decide you like to play risky and rooting just wasn’t cutting for you Daredevil.
- Go to “Play Store” Type into the Search bar “TWRP” – Install “TWRP Manager”
- Once it installed, Open the application, Grant the application root access. Now that the application has root access click on Menu icon in the upper left hand side. Once there go to “Install TWRP”.
- Click on “Device Name” and scroll through the device list and find the “Galaxy s5” and click it. It will then go back to “Install TWRP” page. Now press “Install Recovery” And let it work.
-Go to Step 4.
Step 4. Assuming everything for you so far has gone to plan. The next step is to install MOAR (Mother Of All Roms). Do not unzip the file.
-Connect your phone to the computer.
-Now that you have download MOAR. Move it the “Download” Folder on the SD Card. It will make easier to locate later.
- Now power down the phone and go into the recovery menu. To do this make sure your phone is off and now hold (Home + Power + Volume UP Buttons). Once there click on “Advance”, Then “File Manager”. There you will a list of options scroll until you see “external_sdcard”. Now you will see another list scroll until you see “download”.
-Now find the “MOAR” file. Click it, a couple of options will show up and press “Move”. Now a list will show up, scroll through it and locate the "sdcard”. Another list will show up, scroll through it and locate “TWRP” and press “Select” in the lower right corner and let it do its thing.
- Now go back to the Main Menu. Once you get there click “Install”. You should see the MOAR file, click it. It will take you to another screen and it will ask you to “Swipe to Confirm Flash”. After that your coffee should be done brewing and you might want to get a bagel while you are at.
If you get a couple of errors after installing MOAR, remove the battery and then stick back in and it should correct your problem.

There is no need for this, as there are numerous resources already available on how to root a Samsung device. Also, the methods described in your guide do not work for all Samsung Galaxy devices, and can be harmful to some devices. Unless you've actually fully vetted the methods you are posting, it's best not to post a guide.
