How do I root my phone I tried the method here it failed...
Also how do I flash ME7 if I cant install a custom recovery?
Ok so whenever I try flashing CWM to root my phone it says it works in Odin BUT
The phone wont boot in CWM. instead what happens is it says something about command error and takes me to the default Android recovery....
I read that there were some updates made by Samsung which made these methods not work.
I found the below tutorial which works for the GT-I9500
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/47...-jellybean.htm
Will this work on the SHV-E300L since as the post says that some of the GT-I9500 recoveries work on the Korean Variants?

i have E300L with build no. JDQ39.E300LKLUAMG2. i guess its neither ME6, ME7 or MF4. so is this the latest firmware? i have upgraded it today via software update. it downloaded around 347mb. no i need to root it. Is mine the latest firmware or the one provided in the op?

the one you got updated through kies is the latest, check out the 1st post, now you can download the latest version pre-rooted.

hi jaistah,
just delete .md5 to be just .tar similar to the way it is in the picture down below, then reflash it and sure it will work.

it seems like the CWM doesn't install when you flash it with odin, i advise you to download the latest version and flash it, it's already rooted.

Deleted....sorry I was on another thread and thinking confused. If you want to flash back to stock factory file give me a second see if I can find the tar file for you.

buhohitr said:
This is the original firmware and you must flash it using ODIN. This include rom/bootloader/modem/kernel (everything), it will also wipe your twrp recovery also. After flashed this it will bring your phone back to factory stock. If you're thinking something else don't flash it and just post what you want and people here can help.

yes thats what i am looking for the stock rom..but this link is way to small for that and also, I opened it up and it didnt have the tar file in there..Im assuming this link was like a firmware update instead...

OK, here is the full firmware, unzip then flash with ODIN. This included rom/bootloader/modem/kernel(everything). This will bring back to factory stock rom.

If you already have strong signal and no issue with data drop, then you don't need to upgrade, otherwise yes you could upgrade and possible it may cure your poor signal...hopefully. In my case, this new radio did nothing to my phone signal.

[Guide][Receive OTA after root][keep apps/data][GT-I9500][5.0.1]

a lot of users are having this problem and if you want to receive an OTA you have to flash the stock unrooted firmware that will cause lose of data.
this guide will show you how to receive OTA again without losing your stuff
This works on GT-I9500 ONLY! (Lollipop 5.0.1 Recovery)
This also should work on any other model, but you have to replace the recovery with your model!
Steps:
1- Go to SuperSU and scroll down to "Full unroot" then reboot.
2- Download This file to PC and extract it.
3- Go to download mode by pressing the power key + home key + volume down key at the same time, then press volume up.
4- Flash the file via Odin (AP) or (PDA)
go to check the system status, you will find it Official
you can now receive OTA.
Q&A:
What is OTA (Over The Air)? Its an update which you can receive over wifi or mobile data.
What do i get from OTA? Well, if you root your device you wont be able to receive an update again, unless from flashing firmware via Odin.
- Why im still on custom status? Because you modified your system.
- What kind of modifying? Installing busybox, editing or deleting or changing any app or file system.
and some times xposed.
- How do i restore the old app? You can restore them by flashing firmware or by restoring Nandroid backup.
- Then what is the use of your guide? Well my guide helps in first place the rooted not the modded onces.
and always do Nandroid of the original system apps+data
you are still having your apps, data, pics, vids, etc...
you can root again at anytime.
check my thread for rooting if you want
im not responsible for any bricks

thank you...

Your welcome!

Hi there,
Thanks for the guide, just thinking you may want to say what option in Odin to put the file and what OTA stands for, for the noobs.
Just a thought.

At some point the update maybe canceled, because the update checks for the apps before the installation, always do a backup of your phone then remove what you want, after you want to update just restore the system folder from the backup

If you can see the stock recovery then check the SuperSU app again and maybe you are having a custom kernel

Unable to update to 12.1

So today I saw that the 12.1 update is downloaded and asking me to install it. But, when I do try installing it the screen is stuck at the Cyanogen Recovery.
The usual options in recovery screen are displayed, why isn't the OS updating?
FYI - My OPO is rooted and also has TWRP recovery installed. I also tried disabling the Update Cyanogen Recovery option but the same option.
Any assistance would be great

You can't flash the OTA with TWRP recovery. You can either flash the stock recovery and then install the OTA, or you can download the full ROM zip and flash that with TWRP.

You're not going to be able to downgrade to the lollipop bootloader. The MM firmware you are running is rev 3, the lollipop firmware is rev 2. You can't downgrade revisions.
If you want to go back to lollipop then you may be able to flash just boot and system images, but ymmv.

Extract the required images from the firmware with 7zip then repack those images into a tar archive with 7zip.

You've got me well confused now. Why on earth did you delete sbin? Also by CM do you mean you had CyanogenMod installed?
If that is the case then it may be that CM has corrupted your EFS partition.
This is not the first time that someones build of CM has done this.
Did you have custom recovery installed?
