Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos B5512 Root

I can't root my Samsung Galaxy Y Pro Duos B5512... Can anybody help me?

yup, tell me wat problem you are facing..
i got the same device

The truth is that I am a newby... I have only read about routing and custom roms. But I can't even start trying to root my device because I can't enter recovery mode... When I press Vol Up + Home + Power Button it takes snapshots of my screen... I have read other forums about our device but I found nothing else...
Sent from my GT-B5512 using xda app-developers app

turn your cell phone off completely and then do that way

That works!
What shall I do next?
Is this (http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-y-pro-duos-gt-b5512-root-65406/) the right way?
It's the easiest I have found...
How can I make a backup of my current version?
And how can I recover to factory conditions?

yes, you should start by rooting the cellphone. (but are you sure what rooting does and why to use it?)
hmm, your link is not what i had use, but if you are okay with it then go ahead.
about backup, find for CWM.zip, its a clockworkmod recovery skin. and you will find instructions in it. then you can backup/restore everything.
i suggest moving your backed up data to computer. then you can use ODIN too if you need...

Can you describe me what way you used, or send me a link?
Is there any way I can go back to factory conditions and how can I unroot my phone again?

Hi thanks for the uploads but when loading the update.zip from the recovery utility, i get:
Code:
.zip
(Status 7)
Installation Aborted.
It did update succesfully though when i used this update.zip.
fyi i have the B5512 with PDA: B5512XXLF2 (i think Polish firmware)

Latest version is Android 2.3.6
Btw I would definitely recommend to install the custom kernel from Deadly: this thread
So you can enjoy much longer battery life.

Try Flashing it via Recovery
http://download.chainfire.eu/342/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip

Yes I ran into the same problem, some roms will not work, try another rom.

evo lte no rom
My evo lte is still s-on, and honestly i'm having so many problems with it. i'd like s-off but i'd have to do dirty racun and I don't have Ubuntu... anyways. right now i am having NO luck finding a rom that will work, i've tried charmeleon, mean rom, and a few others flashed them in recovery, flashed their boot.img in fastboot and I can't even see the boot image half the time. I did notice when the charmeleon rom was trying to install that it stopped when it said installing kernel and rebooted itself and I haven't been able to get past there. i'm not picky, at this point I want ANY rom that will actually work so i can have a phone again, please help
ps. I don't have a backup. I had several but somewhere in trying to figure things out, i wiped the entire sd card so i've just been installing roms and trying them via usb mount from recovery

thanks for the reply! I tried almost all of those roms and the download files have been deleted . can you possibly send me a direct link to a rom? also since i'm s-on... i heard HTC dumlock is a good alternative to flash kernels cause i've been using fastboot and they successfully flash but if i by chance get to the lock screen i can't pull the ring up to open the phone, it's completely unresponsive.

hello
I flashed that update but I still get the same thing. binaries are out of date, and then superuser closes. when i hit the normal install it fails and i also have the option to update the binaries through recovery... maybe a stupid question. is there a zip that just has up to date binaries alone? right now i'm on sense five android 4.1.2

TWRP Backups for boost mobile

Like the thread title says, here are some TWRP Backups (only) for boost mobile users.
They are almost stock, maybe not 100%, but better than nothing, if you messed up your software
Thanks @presto1979 for it.
1.ICS TWRP backup for HTC one SV k2_cl...https://mega.co.nz/#!98IhUTzA!YY2KmCWwAZ-cjs65vqL-g9X9BH8cVGra0Lvb7n9ElGA
2.TWRP JB 4.1.2 Backup for HTC ONE SV K2_cl...https://mega.co.nz/#!1oIDkL4R!HhXc4u5Yq9lTqZWoVumkwngx8C-RcTFY6bm3iFZfgrg
3.TWRP Android 4.2.2 Backup for HTC one SV k2_cl...Link removed - For some people not working

would not work
I tried flashing this. It wouldn't work. :-/

I restored the 4.2.2 rom, but i keep getting hard resets while trying to set it up. Tried fixing permissions and factory reset but they both fail, for some reason they can't find the system partition.

Well, i can't give you any helping hand in this case.
Can you tell me which you have used, so i can remove the links?

No problem. https://mega.co.nz/#!gtgkUK5T!2uoNNK...VoIfFCGRR-JuTE was the one I used. Also perhaps it's an issue with the upload.

Hey could you post that backup for 4.2.2 again. Just need to test something.

I would suggest you to talk to @presto1979 about it.

Try to use the 4.1.2 rom. Download was working for me.

Unfortunately it has to be 4.2.2 or all is lost:}

Why? You can restore a 4.1.2 backup, get S-off from a working system and do what you want with the phone.
Edit: Sorry, my bad. 4.1.2 will not boot because of your hboot. So yes, you are right, you need a 4.2.2 backup.

Here is the fxz file if that's what your looking for. http://motofirmware.center/files/file/638-vzw-xt926-442-kda2062-151-cfc-1ffxmlzip/ Flash it with RSDlite. If you need a stock nandroid I can make one using my stock kitkat firmware on TWRP if you absolutely need it. I would recommend flashing the fxz through RSD lite tho.

So your bootloader is locked? This is the latest firmware but according to this post: http://www.droidrzr.com/topic/54379-fxz-442-1834615/ you cannot root this build if you were not unlocked prior to doing the update. I found this somewhere else tho. Perhaps try it to root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58948308&postcount=11 What do you mean date and time not working, like the android system date and time? That's odd.

Well if you follow the correct procedures, you may be successful the Marshmallow didnt work out for me maybe because I messed up somewhere and im not sure whats gonna happen so TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK bro and i think the root will remain safe, and if not you can always root it because once you'v rooted a phone and lose the root its quite easy to get the root back.
