[CWM]Samsung Galaxy Y (ALPHA)

I have tried my best to make it work but I am not able to figure-out what is wrong with it.
I am able to boot into CWM but it is not performing functions like backup,restore,mount,system,etc.
But you can download the attached zip place it in the root of your SD-CARD and flash it from recovery.
After you fla**** with stock recovery, it will automatically OPEN CWM recovery.
You can scroll with volume buttons and center button to select and power button to go back.
But after reboot it will when you press power+volume up+centre it will boot in stock samsung recovery.
After you flash it you can also use ROM MANAGER and press Reboot into Recovery to boot in CWM Recovery.
It will not hurt your phone but i am not responsible for any harm to your phone.
Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: My recovery is not working. Use this recovery by Skin1980: www.multiupload.com/IGKG2L5RAF

Why is this in the Questions and Answers section?

Because I want help in making it stable.

I am not a developer.
But.. Galaxy 5's recovery works(for me atleast) on Galaxy Y, so you might wanna have a look at its code, it can not mount though.. and it also is overwritten or something and everytime I use ROM manager to boot up n CWM it gets replaced again(same as u said in short).
P.S. 'Thanks' for trying.

still wait to finish.i vote you

I expect this was a long time, trying out many more of you, I voted you

failed in flashing progress
i think this because s5360 can't install one-package firmware

anyone try successful??

failed also, i am using cygwin to recompile it as .tar
but it still says the same thing..
i thought the one package is already solved there was a blog who made that post about flashing in one package.

I have tried to flash it with ODIN but it failed then I made an update.zip package with your recovery but after flashing it soft-bricked my phone.
I think something is wrong with the recovery you should fix it.
I can test these recoveries for you but since I am going out for holiday for 10 days sometime I may not test it instantly.
Thanks for your participation in development for this phone.

No your link is for higher version of Android, i mean it is for Android 4.3 or later and these versions have not come yet. Although CM11 is out but it is beta version. So better you download BUILD 2 from the following link.

TWRP or CWM?
Which of the two would you recommend for CM12? Thanks for your hard work . Sorry for my English.

You can use any of them. Both are fully functional. I prefer TWRP because it makes smaller in size backups, it is a touch recovery also

TWRP fixes randoms reboots
I had random reboots when I had the CWM recovery 6.0.5.1. , but I installed the TWRP recovery and the problem has been fixed (with CM12) :victory: Sorry for my English.

I never had random reboots on CM12 either with CWM or with TWRP

No it is not a bug, just a removed feature. It is said that Samsung devices need this flag, that removes this partition thing

TWRP on the GT-S7275R?
Hey i found this guide for installing CWR on the GT-S7275 and thought it should be the same to install TWRP. Is this the Problem or that i have the GT-S7275R with the "R" ?
Is there a way to install TWRP on it to flash your CM12 ROM?

So i should try the cwm? Some other guys had similar problems: After step 10 i wanted to boot to recovery but after a few seconds of the recovery loading screen (blue text) it booted to normal android.

Uninstalling CWM, getting this version of TWRP
I'm trying to get CM 12 on a friends phone but I can't get the recovery to work,
This is what I did:
1. Installed CWM through ODIN v3.07 (going into download mode and stuff)
2. It worked! I went into recovery mode and started wiping everything, but I got an error when wiping the cache partition
3. The phone rebooted.
3. Went to ODIN again, downloaded TWRP but after installing it (which I did correctly according to ODIN v3.07) the recovery didn't change and it's still that buggy build of CWM that won't let me install CM 12 on the device.
4. I though I could force install the recovery using a .img I found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/ace-...3-lte-t2989278 but I really don't know how, any thoughts?
This is the buggy CWM copy I used and I want to remove: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2548856
Thanks!

hi there - i've tried both CWM (recovery-6.0.5.1.tar.md5) and twrp-2.8.7.0.tar.md5 but is still unable to install the cm-12.1-20150821-UNOFFICIAL-loganreltexx.zip.
I've downloaded the cm files a few times and have even formatted the sdcard yet receive this error message:
E:Cant open /storage/sdcard1/cm-12.1-20150821-UNOFFICIAL-loganreltexx.zip (Bad)
Installation aborted.
Appreciate advice on what I have done wrong or not done? Tks!

Proposals
Hello Kotzir,
First of all, thank you for your great job !
Install via ODIN, already known method, like CWM
On this thread, it would be helpful to add a link to the latest version of Odin, or otherwise a link to this page :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548856
And to precise how to enter the download mode :
1. Go to download mode on the device : when the phone is off, press "Home+ Volume DOWN + Power"
And, to be complete :
6. And when the phone is automatically rebooting, press "Home+ Volume UP + Power" to enter in the recovery mode.
Elsewhere the TWRP recovery will be erased by the stock ROM, and it would be to be redone...
Thanks !

[RECOVERY][TWRP][S7562-S7562L-S7560M] Unofficial TWRP 3.0.2 build

Hi S7562, S7562L and S7560M users,
This is my attempt to build the latest version of TWRP available today. It seems to be working but there may be some bugs. So any help with testing would be nice. You can flash it using CWM or old version of TWRP recovery. Don't forget to take full backup of your phone before experimenting with this.
Download link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863140324
If you don't have any version of CWM or TWRP installed you can flash the following file using ODIN.
Download link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424944232
Big thanks to:
* TWRP team for their excellent work.
* @jonypx09, @m4jonez for S7560M & S7562 device tree for CM11.
* @KlinkOnE for his support of S7562 and his great kernel.
* @balindam bajpai, @billysam, @pavlepiramida, @joshclaudio and all other users for testing and feedback.

Works. although I still haven't tested flashing and backup, restore. wipe, file manager, reboot, copy logs are working. good work man. way to go.

Thank you for testing. I tested backup and restore and flashing a bit. But did not have much time to test them extensively.

seems to be working fine for me.
did reboot well,wiped cache,will try flashing something and the UI is just awesome.
cheers.

Rock solid stable recovery!
No bugs what so ever!

Everything is working.
Tried this recovery. Everything works great - file flashing, wiping, formatting. File manager also works without problems. No bugs found. But maybe you noticed the screen turns noisy before the TWRP splash screen. Great work @kengnatural.

Yes, there is for about 1 second noisy screen before TWRP starts to work. But I think this is not so principial to spend time to it. Thank you very much for your testing.

Is this working on L version?

It should work. But we need a tester.

it was the only way to install v3 by nico.

Do you restart and boot into the stock rom after flashing twrp? If yes, try to reboot into recovery just after flashing using phone buttons. Don't allow the stock rom to load. It rewrites the custom recovery.

Thanks! The Unofficial TWRP 3.0.2 works great in my Gt-S7562 but still, I hope you try to fix the one second noisy screen before startup of TWRP

[TESTING][ROM][7.1.2] CM14.1 for janice [TESTERS NEEDED]

02/22 Update: Project temporarily on hold until March due to school.
03/19 Update: I'm back.
03/27 Update: It booted
Hi S Advance Community! I don't own this device but I compiled CM14.1 and I need testers who know how to logcat, use odin to reflash boot image, etc.
THIS BUILD IS TOTALLY UNTESTED (i don't have an s advance)!!! AS A RESULT, RECOVERY MODE MIGHT NOT WORK AFTER FLASHING THIS ROM AND YOU'LL NEED TO FLASH STOCK ROM USING ODIN IF THAT HAPPENS!
I just need info if it boots or not, and logcat/last_kmsg if it doesn't.
Link of rom (for advanced users only)
YOU AGREE TO NOT KILL ME FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPENS TO YOUR PHONE!
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120695238 (again, FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK)
Kernel Source (for GPL Compliance)
EDIT: Use this guide on how to make a logcat/last_kmsg dump when the ROM doesn't boot if you don't know how to (no need to flash the zip on that thread as this rom is an eng build already).
EDIT #2: ROM doesn't boot so I need the /proc/last_kmsg file obtainable from recovery after a failed boot.

Thanks! Downloading it ?

I'm waiting for feedback from the already downloaded it. If successful, please share some screenshots. Thanks in advance guys.

Thanks for testing! While the phone is stuck on the samsung logo, can you press the 3 button combo for recovery for 10+ seconds (without pulling the battery before) until the phone boots to recovery and copy /proc/last_kmsg to sdcard using recovery then upload it here? I need to see the kernel logs if it's an init related issue or a library related one.

Yea ! The installation was a success but it didn't boot...Stuck On the splash screen...I will flash it again and will let you know the kernal logs and stuff.....Thanks For your support for Janice

I will send tomorrow because today i haven't had the time, so that the last time I installed this android even holding the 3 keys to enter the recovery mode the cell phone was stopped on the logo of samsung, would have some other way of copying the /proc/last_kmsg ? But tomorrow i will install again and I'll see if i go into recovery, sorry my english if it is bad is that i am from Brazil

On Codina must be enabled SELINUX with boot parameter - 1 and cmdline=selinux.bootmode=permissive to boot up Nougat. For MM this wasn't needed.

Thanks for reporting! No wonder why no one's giving me logs so I'm gonna make an odin flashable boot.img later with working recovery from some rom.

Hi guys! This is the just the odin-flashable tar of the boot image of PolishVodka's CM14.1 as recovery was said to work there.
