Noob friendly guide for rooting / flashing custom recovery / flashing official samsung firmware with odin
IMPORTANT: you cant blame me if you do screw things up with your device! all these instructions are based on my own experience only with my i9305 LTE. i cant guarantee that this will work with every samsung galaxy device there is! but on most of them it should work. you need to do your own research for odin compatibility and or instructions on how to flash if they differ from these steps below!
IMPORTANT!!!!: fellow i9305 users! if you have never flashed android 4.3 and above before and you are on 4.1.2 or older, you have the old bootloader without KNOX, which is good :good: but if you do flash 4.3 and above stock official you will get new bootloader with KNOX and we all know that sucks!! so flash only stock 4.1.2 if you dont want the new KNOX bootloader!! more info about KNOX here
NOTE: these 3 operations --> rooting / flashing custom recovery / flashing official samsung firmware should be done separately, you cant do all 3 at the same time !! if you need to perform all 3 operations, the logical flashing order would be like this: 1st. official samsung firmware / 2nd. rooting / 3th. custom recovery
NOTE: please ensure that samsung KIES software is not running in the background while using Odin, because KIES and ODIN dont go along!
NOTE: these instructions can be performed for other samsung galaxy devices as well, using the device specific files ofcourse
ATTENTION: warranty will be void hereby!! steps to root device / flash custom recovery / flash official samsung firmware in this order:
1. download Odin3 v3.09 from the link above and unzip, then right click odin3 v3.09 and ''open as administrator'' on your pc
2. download CF auto root / custom recovery / official samsung firmware from the links above and extract/unzip where needed to get .tar md5 file
3. in Odin, in the ''option'' section you should check the boxes of auto reboot / f. reset time and uncheck re-partition!!
4. enable usb debugging in your device in developer options, if you dont see developer options, go to ''about phone'' and tap the buildnumber 7 times and developer options should be visible now (this part is not strictly necessary, just in case if your device is not recognized by pc or odin. generally it is recommended to enable usb debugging with file transfers between device and pc)
5. turn off device now, and put it in odin downloadmode by pressing and holding VOLUME DOWN - HOME - POWER buttons at the same time till you see the black screen with white ''samsung galaxy sIII GT-i9305'' text, then you let go the buttons, now press VOLUME UP and it will boot into downloadmode
6. in odin, click AP button and select the CF auto root / custom recovery / official samsung firmware .tar md5 file that you have extracted/unzipped earlier (in odin under message box, it should say blablabla.tar md5 file is valid!)
7. now connect your i9305 to pc with usb cable (in odin under message box, it should say added!)
8. now your ready to hit START button, after finished (in odin under message box, it should say removed!) your device will reboot and will be rooted / installed custom recovery / installed official samsung firmware in the left upper corner you should see a green box saying PASS, you can disconnect from pc now
This is how you boot into recovery to check it after you have flashed/installed it: press and hold VOLUME UP - HOME - POWER buttons at the same time till you see the black screen with white ''samsung galaxy sIII GT-i9305'' text, then you let go the buttons and it will boot into recovery
To make sure you are rooted, download root checker app from playstore
After rooting, there is a chance that after reboot some message like ''supersu has stopped'' will popup, DONT worry read further...
After you have rooted the device, there will be a app called ''SuperSU'' among your apps, but its a older version of the app and its ''SU binary'' needs to be updated. go to playstore and under my apps search for supersu, it should state that it needs to be updated, do that and restart your phone. you can also flash this UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip in your recovery if you prefer so, both do the same. Configure the settings of supersu after the reboot as you like. for those who got the KNOX bootloader, while updating SU binary, supersu should ask you to deactivate KNOX, just accept and proceed
Congratulations that's all !!
Useful info and important tips for flashing with Odin or your recovery:
- first of all, dont flash any custom rom/stock firmware/custom recovery/custom kernel other then what is made specifically for our i9305!
- it is generally recommended to make a nandroid backup in recovery before taking any action!
- before using odin, make sure your device has at least 50-60% battery level. why? because, if your phone goes off suddenly while installing a custom ROM, flashing an official firmware update or installing mods etc. your phone might get bricked or go dead permanently. no one wants that, right?
- flashing ONLY official stock firmware will not raise the flash counter! and you will not void warranty
- do NOT turn your device off or pull the battery while flashing!!
- any problems, try these few things: update usb drivers, and restart your pc; different cables; different usb ports. other solutions may include redownloading the file
- full .tar md5 files are very large and can take as long as 15 minutes to complete. smaller files such as recoveries normally only takes 10 to 20 seconds
- if you are currently rooted and intend to flash a stock firmware, you will loose root!
- always READ instructions carefully! RESEARCH before posting your questions! refer to i9305 Q&A thread for questions and answers / additional info / assistance, if you need to...

ODIN buttons explanation:
BL refers to the bootloader
AP refers to the build version of the software/firmware
CP refers to the baseband/modem version
CSC is the consumer software customisation and is specific to geographical region and carriers. it contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider
CSC has nothing to do with what languages the firmware supports and it will not add keyboard language support either
PIT refers to the Partition Information Table you only need it if you screw up your partition table or if the firmware specifically requires it because of a change in the partition table layout. its very likely you may never have to use this, at least i hope so however KEEP IN MIND there is a HIGH chance of bricking your device with a bad partition table if you do this wrong!! dont forget to check the box re-partition if youre gonna use it! Thanks @lyriquidperfection for the pit file here
if the package only contains one .tar md5 file then it will have everything, AP+BL+CSC+CP, in one file
a stock firmware downloaded from sammobile or samsung updates will contain all of these in one .tar md5 file
if it has multiple .tar md5 files then:
the .tar md5 with modem/CP in the name is the phone/baseband part of the package
the .tar md5 with CSC/multi-csc in the name is the csc part of the package
the .tar md5 with code/AP in the name is the AP part of the firmware package
the .tar md5 with BL in the name is the bootloader part of the package
if this is the case you will need to put these .tar md5 files in the specific areas of odin to flash the update/stock rom
Step 5.
I am and will not be responsible for any kind of damage to your device, flash at your own risk !!!
All credit and thanks goes to @Chainfire - @Dees_Troy - @Phil3759 - @JustArchi - @Pheoxy - @SdtBarbarossa Thanks a LOT !!

you have to flash it with odin. download odin from OP
if you dont know how to use odin then google about it..
Isn't CWM 6.0.4.7 the version built for CyanogenMod ??
I'd personally still leave a link for the original 6.0.2,9 because not all CWM .zip files work with the newer version.
I've personally used TWRP for a long time now and it just got better with the app they released to go alongside it (search for TWRP on google play)

Question, on my Note n7000 i have CWM 6.0.4.8 and it's rather nice in the way that the touch works. It's not touch enabled like Philz, the screen acts more like a touchpad.
You swipe up for up, down for down. It's not one swipe, one slot, it's more like scroll, like the touch device on the N1, or the original Desire.
You swipe right for "Enter", left for back.
Can we have this?

would like to help you, but im no developer nor im a programmer, you could ask a dev. to do this
time to update.. SuperSu v1.99 !
Bump
Could you guys explain why you prefer each recovery ? I prefer TWRP because it's more ergonomic and easy to use , you can select multi Zip flashing , the "format /system" is in wipe settings , you can do multiple wipes in one click , it's a true time gain
Flash zip files from custom recovery, enjoy
or u can flash only mod.zip file to have record on stock dialler
[THEME] [GT-S7500]TWRP Materialised/Dark & AROMA File Manager-TWRP 2.5.0.0 & 2.7.0.0
I am sure currently most of us are using TWRP 2.5.0.0 or 2.7.0.0 and so i would like to share new feature of TWRP Materialised theme, so that we can experience Android - 5.0 Lollipop Materialised design look from our TWRP recovery
Here I would like to share 2 TWRP Materialised theme with 320 x 480 screen resolutions working for both TWRP 2.5.0.0 & 2.7.0.0. Others then that can change different style look in twrp recovery, center clock option, different navbar button layouts, AROMA File Manager & many more setting.
TWRP Materialised/Dark theme installation method:
The theme zips are not flashable. First installation has to be done manually:
1. Download the theme of your choice and rename it to "ui.zip".
2. On SD card (if device has internal and external storage, use the internal) open TWRP folder and create a folder called "theme", without capital letters.
3. Copy ui.zip to theme folder.
4. Restart to recovery.
AROMA File Manager in our TWRP 2.5.0.0 & 2.7.0.0
AROMA File Manager is not part of the theme.
The theme just contains a "shortcut" for directly starting AROMA FM, rather than going through the "install > flash zip" procedure.
1. Download this flashable zip.
2. Flash the zip in recovery.
3.This will copy the Aroma FM package to \TWRP\aromafm.
4. In Materialised settings, tick the option to use Aroma FM.
From the main menu, the theme will now start Aroma FM instead of the TWRP file manager. The file manager will starting, and you are ready to managing your filesystem (copy, cut, delete, make new folder, etc) while you are in recovery
Guys hope you like it & enjoy :fingers-crossed:

Aroma file manager just like custom rom stock file manager of CyanogenMod 10,11 or future 12(android 5.0 lollipop) or others third party apps like Explorer file manager and many more able to download from Google play store. Aroma file manager is to managing your filesystem (copy, cut, delete, make new folder, etc) while you are in "recovery" hope are clear enough for you

*You might find that if you install 4.4.2 CWM on 4.4.2 firmware the next reboot will cause recovery to revert to stock. To stop this install CWM 4.2.2 (Yes it works), then try to reboot and it will ask you to "stop stock recovery from installing after reboot?"

Hi Valkiry,
when I tried to make the update I got an error. Now when I'm doing a normal start the system hangs on the boot logo.
The error message said:

Please continue to update your system !
Any ideas?

Sorry for the late reply. My wife just had a baby. You need to remove super user before you apply the update. The update wont work with SU. Its batter to do it with stock 100%
Brilliant. Took a bit of trial and error since I've not worked with this tool before but got my tablet updated to 4.4.2 at last. Thanks so much for putting this together, I really thought I'd be stuck on 4.2. Just gotta figure out how to root now, that doesn't seem to be working.
How to find exact model of my Vodafone Smart Tab 4 ?
Can i flash this on my iusacell alcatel pop 8 p320a? I need kitkat
Stock rom is in rar file, i cant select it to install stock rom, it has to be zip file
Any idea would help

Does this allow the Tab to make and receive calls over GSM? Is this unbranded firmware not Vodafone firmware?
You need root access to install custom recovery via adb in fastboot, so you mean get root, install recovery then remove SU before flashing?
Okay so the first dump (4.2.2) is stock firmware from Hungary Vodafone used by mtktools to flash, please not this does not have super user so your device is allowed to update to the 4.4.2 file.
Second file is an update to 4.4.2 for those that missed out on the OTA release because they had root.
Third file is a custom debloated 4.4.2 flashable through CWM.
Never install SU on hungary 4.2.2 firmware as you will never get to upgrade to 4.4.2 firmware.
Updated with new files please check post #1
Gapps on RR v5.7.4 is now fully functional. Enjoy please dont Forget to hit that Thanks button!

There is no scatter file for MT8382. Vodafone changed it to lock people out of backing up. The original scatter file provided is the real device code. Why are you asking for MT8382?

Extract the files and re-ZIP it as a zip file. I made a mistake. It won't affect install

27/4/2017: New RR5.7.4 With Updated SU, BusyBox, Gapps and DivineBeats9.0. Please note this is a TWRP recovery so replace DATA and SYSTEM into one of your own backup's of RR5.7.4! Let me know if this works for you please and be careful! Make sure you know what you are doing!
Install Stock Firmware 4.2.2 using SPFlashTools:
-Make sure you boot into recovery and factory reset before first use!
Install Update from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2:
-Make sure the device is stock! No root or you will encounter errors. Custom recovery works fine, no issues.
-Place Update.zip on root of SD-card or internal if you dont have an SD-card
-Apply Update
-Reboot
Installing Custom Recoveries Using SPFlashTools(Doesnt matter which android you are running 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 they both work for each firmware):
-Install either 4.2.2 or 4.4.2 OR TWRP3.0.0.0
*You might find that if you install 4.4.2 CWM on 4.4.2 firmware the next reboot will cause recovery to revert to stock. To stop this install CWM 4.2.2 (Yes it works), then try to reboot and it will ask you to "stop stock recovery from installing after reboot?" Select yes and dismiss Super user question as you'll get stuck in bootloop.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU FACTORY RESET AFTER INSTALLING ANY FIRMWARE! INCLUDING STOCK RELEASE!
