[Q] Can I flash a ROM if I don't have root? - General Questions and Answers

I have a THL W200S and it has a custom rom that I flashed when I had the stock rom.
In this rom i can't have root.
Can I still flash another custom rom with CWM?
Thank you.

If you have an unlock bootloader, than yes. To know if you have an unlock bootloader, dial *#*#7378423#*#* . Then go to -> "Service Info" -> "Configuration". If there is:
Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes << this means that your Bootloader is Locked
Bootloader Unlocked - Yes << this means that your bootloader is unlocked
Don't forget to hit the "thanks" button if I was helpful

the root will be gone & if previously you unlocked the bootloader,the bootloader will still be unlocked,except you locked it yourself.

And what do you mean by that? I mean what's your idea? You think maybe in that way we can flash without changing the kernels just with flashing that script?

You can only flash custom roms who have included stock boot.img untouched. For example you can't flash CyanogenMod because it requires different boot.img and since your bootloader is locked you can't change kernel who is different than stock. I've seen someone that installed CyanogenMod on locked bootloader running stock kernel, I don't know how to do it because I'm not dev.

People confirm that works. I don't know what might be the problem for you. As i can see from your status your bootloader has been unlocked and you have already fully working cwm for that. And for the bugs I don't know I'm waiting someone who can help me.

Well, I don't know scripts,mods, custom roms based on stock kernel if someone will make at the future. Also you can flash deodex firmware for 4.4.4 from Daniel Florin.
Recovery?
Hi dose this actually work on the latest firmware for out d2303? on a unlocked bootloader? because that would be awsome as I been waiting for some time for a CWM recovery for it.

It's working fine on D2303 with 4.4.4 kk lock bootloader. It should work on unlock bootloader but you have kernel which is simpler solution.

Unlock Bootloader

Hello. Sorry for my English) I do not know exactly or not, but it seems I unlocked the bootloader. I did this on Android 7. Just flash this via Odin. Maybe it will be useful for somebody.

This is really helpful.
Since my bootloader is unlocked, as what is says in Settings -> About Phone -> Phone Status -> Custom (scroll all the way down), I will try to gather more information on how to root 7.0. on the S6
Edit: So far, I'm getting "SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RECOVERY)" on my phone.
I am get the same ... maybe need special recovery for this model?
I don't know. I used to have a s3 and after 4.3, I wasn't able to unlock my bootloader anymore.
It's based on Verizon's code. So I don't know how you will deal with it.
One step close, just need a recovery and all done, just wait a little more. Thanks for that.
I have not tried this. Some video available to see it.
And hopefully they can do root.
And then customizable rom versions

google pay & android P

Ehi guys!
i've just flashed Android P DP2 and i'm not able to use google pay anymore.. i've read it's blocked when the bootloader is unlocked, any way to solve it?
thanks a lot!
You need a custom kernel or lock the bootloader.
Thanks, I'll try to flash a kernel as soon as I manage to flash twrp.. I don't understand but it fails
You don't need twrp to flash a kernel....
