GALAXY Y Boots only in Stock ROM even after flash

I had rooted my phone, and did use Jelly Blast for a while worked perfect. After a few days I tried installing mods through cwm which led to boot loops. I used odin and got stock ROM for my phone . Now when I tried installing Nemesis ROM, I followed all steps right but though it shows Nemesis boot picture, it still boots into the stock OS.

Update ur cwm version
Flash ur rom again
It will ask u to disable stock recovery say yes
This should fix ur problem:thumbup:

Hey I'm a noob. By flash your rom, do you suggest to flash the same nemesis rom again? And what will ask me to disable stock recovery? I have cwm version 5.0.2.6 right now.

try this
wipe data
wipe cache
wife dalvik cache
install stock rom via odin
then install your desired rom via cwm

I have tried the following steps:
1. Odin stock rom: I just have pda,csc and modem. I do not have bootloader and pit.
2. Then went to Recovery and installed CWM
3. Installed custom rom JELLY Blast which previously had no issues. (Before this I wiped data,cache & dalvik)
4. Result - > Stuck on Samsung screen.
After which I cannot get back to any recovery mode anymore, it is stuck on samsung screen. All I have to do is go back to download mode and odin it again. But I really want to be back on custom roms

Hi,
This is not your phone issue alone but any phone can face this. To reproduce this issue, it takes more than what you have mentioned. But the solution comes through if you follow these steps just as listed by me here:
1. Get an older version of official Samsung Firmware (preferably 1 or 2 versions older than the latest one)
2. Flash this using ODIN (if flashing fails at any point via ODIN user an even older Stock Firmware version)
3. If you can boot into the Rom fine, reboot to its Stock Recovery
4. From Stock recover, start the CWM.zip that you have (version 5 or 6 whichever lets you load fine, does not matter at this point)
5. When inside CWM, go into Advanced and select "Fix Permissions"
6. Only after you have fixed permissions, go ahead and do the Wipes in the order below
7. Wipe Dalvik Cache, Wipe Cache, Wipe Data
8. Once this is done, load the custom ROM you want to install from this CWM session
9. After install, when you go for reboot, see if you get any option that says something like "prevent from flashing stock recovery" or so, say yes to it.
This should fix any permission issue that may be preventing you to get to your favorite ROM from stock ROM.
Let me know if this helps or if I can help you further.
Glad if this helped you in any way !

Thanks a Ton, this helped me. The only step I did not perform earlier is Fix Permissions.

[Q] I'm Panicing

Ok I followed the instructions exactly as described, except I failed to do the backup. I went thru all steps(except backup, im an idiot)and installed paranoidandroid 3.68a and it will not boot pass the logo.
I flashed with this cwm-6.0.3.0-i815.tar
My rom was this pa_i815-3.68-20130721a
and then this gapps-jb-20130301-signed
Please can someone help me, this is my kids tablet, and I was just trying to make it better. Thanks

Just go into recovery wipe everything (wipe data,cache,dalvik's cache) and then you will have to go into download mode and flash a stock rom or any custom rom using Odin.

1. BACKUP ALL DATA OFF DEVICE
2. Boot into CWM recovery
3. Wipe : system, DATA, cache, dalvik-cache
4. Boot directly into Download Mode
5. Flash stock firmware with Odin
In future, suggest to forget OTA. Use Odin !

S6 Edge G925F Only latest firmware works

Having tired of my phone's slowness, I decided to downgrade it.
First I tried last firmware with Android 6.0.1 G925FXXU5DQA7 and CSC G925FOXX5DQA2.
This failed in Odin 3.10 on cm.img. I tried removing this and it failed later.
Tried all android 7.0 firmwares (available to my region/carrier (Ireland/Meteor)).
The latest firmware worked fine.
All previous versions started up but kept having android services constantly failing/restarting - making it unusable.
I really want to go back before the latest firmware; I want some speed and performance back that Samsung has stolen from me with updates!
Do I need a pit file to repartition my phone? If so, how do I find what size partition (seen 60M to 300M).
Is any pit file for G925F of correct partition size okay?
If pit file isn't the answer, anyone out there have a good suggestion?

How about twrp full reset? Then back into download mode Samsung odin

Following thread on how to do this, I found I didn't have OEM unlock option.
Then I found this thread.
Thread convinced me there's a good chance just installing twrp-3.2.3-0-zerolte.img.zip will not work.
So I need to install no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip first?
Do I need to root the phone as well.
Assuming I get TWRP installed I can wipe phone and install any official image?
If any of this goes wrong, will I always have Odin mode left on my phone to go back to Official image?

You need tar version of twrp and yea flash it do a backup if u want.
Wipe system, data, dalvik, cache, install whatever and yeah download mode for Odin will always be there good luck
