Hi sorry to ask such noob questions but I have just purchased my first Samsung device the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime SM-S820L Straight Talk and I am trying to figure out how to create or get a copy of a stock recovery image it is my understanding that this model is fairly new so there is not much around specific to his model of phone and I have only manged to find a handful of posts on this device, what I need to do is make a stock recovery img then root then install xposed framework so that I can change the "Rom Status" on my phone back to "official" after root changes it to "custom" so that I can still recieve the OTA lollipop update when it is sent out, but to do this I need a recovery first in case any issues arrive any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I have been researching this whole thing for days to no avail and would really like to get this done, thanks so much for your help in advance and again sorry for the noobish post.

I want to give my S3 Mini Root Access to potentially start installing Custom Roms. However, researching the topic has gotten extremely confusing. I have the international version but I don't know from which country. I got it off Amazon.com. My questions are
1. How do I go about giving this S3 Mini root Access
2. How do I go back to the Stock ( Samsung FW/ Rom if I do not like the Rom I installed)
3. Are there easy methods to rooting with a MAC device? ( My main computer but I can find access to a windows computer if needed)

Any help or information will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply. I was able to root my phone. Now my question is that I would like to run a lag free system. Would changing the Rom fix that? Will I lose any features on my phone? I want a rom that is Simple ( google edition phone/ no bloatware) My current system is 4.2.1, would I need to stay on 4.2.1 to keep my features or that doesnt matter.
Please post that question in Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting so that the right experts may help you.
Long story short soft bricked my phone a few days ago. i was told that flashing a new rom through odin would do the trick but I cant simply flash the stock 4.4.2. Mostly on the account that Samsung issued 4.3 and 4.4 OTA. And when I do come across a rom chances are its flashable through a recovery, which is what I dont need, as my phone is not turning on.
Thanks in advance and much appreciated to anyone with advice.

I want to flash my S3, as it just came back from the shop with superuser installed, I assume it's rooted?(not sure)
.I have downloaded, odin, kies and the usb driver. I'm also downloading the rom [ROM][364MB][NB6]Revolutionary S5 V3.
Are they anything which I will need? I sorta rooted/flashed some devices before but that was long ago but I dont remember it too clearly. And also, the rom has a Patch V3 fix, which I do not know how to do use it, or if it is necessary to use it.
Appreciate any help I can get!

Phone: Asus Zenfone 2

CPU: Quad-core 2.3Ghz
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 32Gb
Root: Used QuickRoot to gain root privileges
Bootloader: Not unlocked, at least not intentionally...
Hello dear XDA members,
I am posting this because I have quite unusual problem with my Recovery Mode.
Like everybody else here I rooted my phone to get rid of the pre-installed cra.. I mean BloatAware. After the root everything was successful and I managed to delete all the apps that I am not going to use and that I don't need. I didn't delete any of the key modules except S-KEY Cleaner if that is of some relevance.
So how all this happened?
I was looking into flashing ROM called BlissPop because Lolipop has a RAM leak and I find it quite annoying. So I started doing the steps...
I think my recovery stopped working after I installed TWRP app from Google Play store and tried to make a recovery.
I prepared all the zip folders on my phone and turned off my phone. I used Power key + Vol UP to get to the menu.
There are few of the lines missing like "Secure_Boot - ?" and "Signing - ?" which doesnt seem to be the case when I looked at other threads.
When I press power button to select Recovery Mode it just reboots and pops up the same menu. No error messages or pictures on the screen.
Dont forget that I didnt NOT unlock bootloader.
So.. Does anybody knows what is the problem and what should I do? Because I want that Blisspop so bad. To add to that I am a full time traveler at the moment and I cant afford to brick my phone as I am 35.000km away from home.
If anybody has the time and energy to explain me step by step process how to do all that + how to flash BlissPop ROM and Gapps I would sincerely appreciate it.
If I missed any relevant detail please ask and Ill try my best to answer as accurately as possible.
Thank you so much for your time.
P.S. I cant post outside link, but if you want the picture Ill send it by phone, mail, or whatever.

Hello again guys!
I think I am on the right track. I did my homework and read a lot of threads about bootloaders and recoveries. I will test it out soon and tell you guys if I managed to fix it and what did it take.
Wish me luck!

Well done mate Good to see you found your way.
As this is resolved I'll have to close this thread now. Enjoy the site. :good:
I only ever customized one device- my old Samsung Galaxy Ace a few years ago; installed CWM recovery, rooted the phone and installed custom ROMs, but thats my only experience.
I tried searching for ways to do the same with the above mentioned tablet since it slowed down and the warranty period is over, but i have problems:
-the device's recovery mode is in chineese, i dont even know what im looking at when i start it in said recovery mode
-i can't find CWM nor custom roms for Lenovo B8000-H(i might just be bad at googling)
Basically i have no idea what im doing and am asking for any help you guys can provide me with.
Thanks in advance!
