hi
i have recently rooted my phone Samsung galaxy s4 (GT-I9500, android 5.0.1) using CF auto root and i think there is no custom rom or recovary.
As per thread these are installed after rooting
- SuperSU binary and APK
- Stock recovery
Today i tried to delete system apps mentioned in a thread in this forum. Now after restarting phone shows this message - " Android is upgrading " and i keep getting message saying unfortunately " ____ " app has stopped. Phone screen is blank. i can't do anything.
I think now i need to flash a new ROM using Odin. I don't have any prior experience in flashing ROM.
Can somebody help me in this.
from my limited knowledge i thin i should do following things
1)install CWM recovary first and
2) then flash a Custom Rom
Please provide a solution to my problem with link to download files
thank you

Will this solve my problem?

Hi.. I'm sorry for the long post, but I've been trying to install a nice Google Play Edition ROM on my phone for 2 days now and I'm hitting dead-end after dead-end. I'm just so tired and frustrated!! :crying:
I have rooted my At&T Galaxy S4 (NC1) using Geohot's Towelroot.
I then installed the TWRP app off the Play Store and used it to "Install TWRP".
At this point, when I tried to create a backup by rebooting to recovery, the phone reboots and it gets stuck with the following message (paraphrasing a bit):
"Unable to perform normal boot. Using ODIN.. Downloading.. Do not turn off device"
I then used the "Home+Vol dwn+Power" combo to reboot back into the stock ROM.
At this point I read about Loki and having to bypass the bootloader.
So I downloaded the loki_tool file from https://github.com/djrbliss/loki and followed the instructions there to create the aboot.img. However, when I tried to created the .lok file from a TWRP 2.8.0.1 open recovery image, it said "Failed to find function to patch". (For this step I tried with both ADB and a terminal emulator on my phone).
On Danvdh's forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353, he simply says
"I only support the latest TWRP recovery, AT&T users must loki after flashing
-Full wipe
-Flash ROM
-Reboot"
But I'm not even able to boot into TWRP recovery!!
I don't know what the fundamental problem is and trying to wade through the ocean of information out there looking for a solution is just too exhausting when I don't even know the problem!
PLEASE HELP!!
Thanks in advance!:fingers-crossed:

Hi, so i ran in to some problems and questions while fixing my girlfriends galaxy s duos (GT-S7562).
I wanted to install a debloated firmware/root the device to uninstall bloatware because it got dead slowly in the last few weaks.
some info:
AP: S7562XXALJ4
CP: S7562XXLJ3
CSC: S7562ATOALH1
free handset bought in Austria
First of all I followed this guide.
I installed the clockwork recovery first, but when booting into it I don't get the usual backup option I normaly found on my older android devices.
When I try to root it i get error "failed to verify whole-file signature" and "signature verification failed".
Last I wanted to ask what roms are possible to install on my device,
fyi: KyleOPEN ROM says it needs XXBMD6 Base rom
but how can I get this Base rom? or is it impossible for me to flash this rom?
any help/explanation would be appreciated!

The XXBMD6 base ROM is available here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Just input your phones model number into the device search and download the one with the matching PDA file end.
For the recovery issues, some recoveries are different based on the devices capabilities but overall most options like install.zip and nandroid backups should be available.
To flash the base ROM use odin and flash as if you're returning to stock then follow the guide.
And there are many ROMs available for your device, there's a list in the thread you posted
thanks for your answer, so I just have to flash any of the XXBMD6 roms over my XXALJ4 (I guess this is the PDA file end you're talking about)?
after this I am able to install mentioned KyleOPEN ROM?
sorry I'm almost new in this topic (last android phone was a htc legend, forgot everything)
edit: the problem with the recovery was that it switched back to stock recovery itself, found the workaround with renaming the install_recovery

I am in the same situation. I'm interested in what you have done on this issue??
I have a Samsung galaxy Tab2 p3100,
Few dayz back I tried to install a custom rom in it thru CWM, but it was unsuccessfull.
Then I installed back that stock rom that I had backup.
Then I formatted my tab few times.
Then it shows some errorr;!!.
Then I used my phone, but when I opened SuperSU,
It is showing "There is no SU binary installed,and SuperSU cannot install it,This is a problem"
So I flashed again that rooting file thru odin 3 times,
but still itz showing the same error.
So Dev's I kindly request u guyz to provide any solution to this problem.
Its really freaking me out .
Plzzz help me Guyszz....
You may need to flash a stock firmware, something may be borked in system, by updating your firmware and updating your custom recovery it will probably fix issue . After wards root update binary again and flash roms.
Pp.
any other solutions Bro
If something is borked due to a bad flash or bad or wrong download the only way to fix it is to reflash original stock firmware in order to fix it. You then start all over again.
I keep a folder on my pc with all the stuff I need incase this happens.
Pp.
Flash a custom recovery. Download latest SuperSU zip from SuperSu thread and flash in recovery

Hi Experts,
I want to upgrade my samsung galaxy note GT-N7000.
After reading on how to install custom rom to N7000. I tried one of the way to install the Custom Rom using Install from Zip using SD card.
Steps i have performed to install custom rom are mentioned below:
1. I have install one app to root my phone.
2. Checked with the help of MD5File checkup to confirm that my phone is rooted or not and found that my phone has been rooted.
3. I have gone to developer option and checked USB Debugging.
4. I have not installed any backup tool for the current recovery.
5. i have copied the N7000 CWM Nightly rom which is for KitKat, but it failed in the verification and errored with Status 7.
6. Then with some other roms its failing in status 6.
8. At last one rom Slimsaber got passed in the verification and removed the current rom but while installing or mounting its rom it failed....(This action is performed using Install using Zip from SD Card)
Result was that my phone got hung on the logo. But some how i managed to installed one korean rom on the phone which was having a older version i.e. 4.0.3 and its update was not available so i got my phone updated with the stock rom of 4.1.2 version from samsung store. So now its back to where i have started
Query:
1. Is that the reason i have not installed a custom recovery tool for the existing rom in case the new rom fails (I have missed 4th point: Is there any best app that backup for current stock rom)
Request:
1. Can you guys please tell me which is the ROM that works for N7000 India version for Kitkat and Lollipop(If available)
2. Please suggest the rom that works with Odin because i have bad exp with installing from SDcard. If possible please provide a link for that tar file.
Really appreciate your support and thanks in advance.

You should install/flash a custom recovery and make a complete system (nandroid) backup directly in the custom recovery.
There are some other apps, which can create an Online Nandorid backup (just check Play store), but some apps are not compatible with all devices and to restore such a backup, you will need a custom (CWM or TWRP) recovery anyway.
To get best advices about custom recovery, ROMs, etc. for your device, please ask in the Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [FAQ] [Q&A] [Noob Friendly] HELP THREAD - POST ALL YOUR SUPPORT QUESTIONS HERE thread.
P.S.: To install/flash a custom ROM provided as zip file, you usually need a custom recovery. Stock recovery only flashed signed zip file (e.g. official OTA update files from Samsung).
Thread closed and thank you.
