(?) Help rooting my Galaxy Y - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl

I downloaded the update.zip for my phone using a barcode scanner thing on this website. (This was about 15 minutes ago)
Specifically here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378660
The update.zip folder was in the download folder but then I moved it to the root of my SD card as instructed. The problem is that when I tried to go to recovery mode to 'root' the phone another thing came out. It was like a warning, something like this:
Warning (!)
Using a custom OS....blah blah blah
press Volume-up to install custom OS
press Volume-down to cancel
So I canceled it and tried to go to recovery again. This warning came out again so I pressed yes because I thought it was part of the rooting process.
Now I'm stuck on this ODIN MODE and don't know what to do.
The screen I'm on say's this:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME : GT-S5360
CUSTOM BIN DOWN : NO(0 counts)
CURRENT BIN : SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

Is it safe to turn it off, It say's not to? Should I hold the power button? Rip off the battery?
EDIT: Nevermind, I turned it off and it's ok now. Thank you.
*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
EDIT #2: I finally got access to recovery mode and selected "search SD card" or something like that....and selected update.zip. A bunch of weird symbols scrolled down the screen and then it said "Installation Aborted". The root was unsuccessful, why?

Try the other update.zip

That one worked. My phone's rooted now. Thank you
Now I plan on removing some pre-installed apps (Uno, Ideas, Social Hub (not sure what that's for), Block Breaker, Voice Search, etc....). Do I need to make a 'Backup' of those apps, in case I mess up in something and I need to get the phone fixed, I can put them back where they were and make the hack un-noticable.

Just create nandroid backup before doing something in ur device.. its will help if something bad happen..
Backup with cwm-madteam in recovery mode..
Just read all bout sgy from ronnie thread or sgy for dummies from carl thread..

Recovery mode:
Volume up + power button + home button
When it show up the srceen say Samsung galaxy y young GT-S5360 then let go the power button
It will go to recovery mode
Download mode:
Volume down + power button + home button

DO THIS ONLY WHEN YOU PLUG IN YOUR PHONE AND NOTHING SHOWS UP ON THE SCREEN!!!
This method is basically same as the normal stock rom flashing tut, EXCEPT the way you get into Download Mode as your phone is HARD BROKEN.
1. Download all the files required in the "SOFT BRICKS" Prob, (Just Google that)
. 2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Now flash ur Stock rom via odin...

Problem still persists
Hi everyone!
I had this very same problem. It's my sister's phone. She was promted to install update (I think it was firmware, but not sure). Anyway, the update was stuck at 86%. She lost the nerves and turned off the phone during install athough she shouldn't have. Then the phone was stuck at Samsung logo screen. I did some web browsing, and flashing using odin came up as a perfect solution for me. And I did it! Everything seemed perfect until the end. And just as I thought I finished, and did everything right, the phone (that was still in progres of flashing) just turned off and now I can't get it to do ANYTHING AT ALL since!
I've tried everything I found on web, inclouding suggestions from this forum, trying with usb cable and without battery, but nothing worked! It's simply dead!
Can anyone suggest anything new before I take it to samsug service?
Thanx in advance!
Try to flash with ODIN.. by this method
1. Remove ur battery
2. connect phone without battery
3. press volume up/down + home key
now your phone must be Download mode
4. Now Connect your battery
try to flash now & reply..
Still nothing

i9000 Can't get into HBOOT

So my friend rooted and flashed CWM on his Galaxy S i9000, then he wasnt happy so he tried to restore the old backup. It gave him an error, now the phone is stuck in bootloop. The problem is that he cant get back into HBOOT either because Power+Vol UP+Home doesnt work. Any ideas guys?
Thanks for helping

Do a battery pull first
try a different combination of keys ( Vol down+home+power or home+power )
Failing which use easy reboot recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796807

Thanks for your help. All those combos don't work for some reason. I am not sure how Easy Reboot Recovery would work since I believe the phone doesn't get recognized by the USB.

ok, try battery pull and reinsert method for download mode
1) Press and hold (volume down+home key+power button)
2) insert the battery
by ruaylau
Did you ever get into to Download Mode or Recovery Mode before you stuck?
Yeah, I accessed the recovery with Vol Up + Power + Home, but only when the phone was booted up fully. He was trying to restore the old ROM in CWM but it gave him error flashing boot image, then he restarted the phone and got the bootloop problem, so theres no way to restart it into HBOOT. I will try your method xsenman, have to wait till sunday so the phone gets here. If anyone has some other tips, I would appreciate it.

May be you bricked your phone. You can try solutions mentioned below:

It's not bricked..if you're seeing anything on the screen, it should be recoverable. And even hard bricked phone can be saved with the UnBrickablemod.

Okay heres the thing. Easy Reboot Recovery does nothing, just opens and closes, I guess since it kinda doesn't recognize the USB from the phone. Then I used SGS Rescue Kit, launched OneClick.jar, connected the phone, clicked unsoft brick and it said Sucessful, the phone started showing the Samsung logo, but then nothing happens. Tried Easy Reboot Recovery again, but nothing. Any ideas?
Can you still access download mod ( Volume Key down + Menu + Power ) ?
If yes you can download a stock ROM that includes PIT PDA PHONE CSC and BOOTLOADER files, this page contains links to all theses files :
http://www.androidgen.fr/tutoriel-s...id-gingerbread-2-3-6-odin-article-2110-2.html
Now once you download these files just start Odin and put:
s1_odin_20100512.pit in PIT
CODE_I9000XWJVZ_CL762604_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5 in PDA
MODEM_I9000XXJVT_REV_00_CL1064602.tar.md5 in MODEM
GT-I9000-CSC-HOME-MULTI-OXAJVT.tar.md5 in CSC
APBOOT_I9000XWJVZ_CL762604_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5 in BOOTLOADER
Make sure that "Re-Partition" is checked as shown in this Screenshot:

[Q] My phone bricked itself and cannot enter recovery mode?

Hi guys. I was using my device and had to turn it off because my spotify app glitched. I go to turn it back on and it gets stuck on the dual core start up screen. I call Verizon and they told me to go into recovery mode. I follow all instructions and my phone fails to enter into recov mode. It will allow me to select it but it goes to the dual core screen once again afterwords. Basically my phone is a brick right now and i am in a hole because i have photos and info on here i want to retrieve as well as i dont want to buy another 400 dollar phone. if anyone has any suggestions on how i can fix this it would really really be appreciated. I do know that my phone was stock on ICS. thanks for any suggestions.
Your in a mess. I hope those pictures are on your external SD. Get to the frozen m screen. Hold volume up and down and power until it turns off. Once it is off release them hold up and down on volume rapidly. Once you get to the screen scroll down to fast boot with volume then hit up volume tell me results also does it say battery ok?

Ok I was able to reload the stock ICS using the RDSlite via the fastboot menu.
Sems a bit slow to reboot and load.
performed a full wipe after the reboot into ICS and then let it down load and install the OTA JB.
Recovery take a while to load. but performed another full wipe with JB and will test over the weekend.
Followed the same process withteh wife's M.
And it's seems much faster and more response to rebooting and accessing the recovery.
But is was 4AM. so again will test over the weekend.
Thanks

I read your post and almost the exact thing happend to my phone. Im trying RSD lite to re flash. Where did you get a valid fresh virgin copy of ICS

That is the full XML.zip firmware file for the stock ICS release for XT907.
You need RSD Lite 6.1.4 for everything to work properly.

[Q] Recovery is not seandroid enforcing

Hi guys!
Today I've tried to flash CWM or TWRP to my Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.
Everything went fine, phone rebooted. After that I've tried to enter the recovery mode and i get a red message on the top left corner:
"Recovery is not seandroid enforcing"
Already made some research on the intenet, and does this mean I have a firmware with Enforcing SELinux, and my bootloader is secured?
In the options there is some information that it tells there is an SELinux & Secure Bootloader. Check the image below.

}
Is there any way to handle this? Might I should flash another firmware? But which one? I think this is an international model, factory unlocked and I live in Hungary.
Thank you very much for any help!
Recovery is not seandroid enforcing
When u press the 3 buttons (Volume up + home + power) together, the phone will try to load into recovery.
Keep pressing the buttons until the three lines comes out at the top left corner.
When the three lines come out keep pressing the volume up button ONLY and it should load into recovery

If you installed cwm you will be able to do those things. That message will always be there if you have installed a custom recovery or kernel. Also I'm pretty sure you don't have to hold home to get to recovery. Just hold up while turning your phone on, when it turns on you can release power just continue holding up until recovery boots up.

You do not need to press the home button to enter recovery mode or download mode on an i9505. Just power and volume up or down is enough.

if you get your timing right , you can get into recovery or download by pressing power button until it vibrates on, then hold up volume or down depending on where u want to go , for only a second or so ... the more accurate u get the timing the less long u have to hold ... this eliminates the chance of holding the power button down too long & forcing a reboot, or leting go wrong time becuase you dont want it to reboot hehe, and when u do it 100 times in a day, the less stress on ur hands is fantastic

I too am getting this message when booting both into recovery and the main system.
Its not preventing me from doing anything as normal though.
It happened when I installed the weekly unstable build 5 of SlimKat.
And it still exists now with the stable build 6.........
what does it actually mean?

Trouble with entering recovery
Thanks for the thread! Was able to boot into recovery now
thanks very much. had the same problem.
but even so, I ended up booting into stock recovey. but i flashed TWRP before hand in ODIN. I need TWRP to root/flash custom ROM, please help!
Quick question guys, I have a sgh m919 (tmoS4) and I have the latest TWRP installed. My issue is that the phone hangs at the Samsung Galaxy s4 screen before booting. The actual booting with the animation is quickly but before that it hangs for maybe a good 30-35 seconds. Can I get some help?

uncheck auto-reboot in Odin before flashing.
Help me quick
Hello, I have got the same issue but on a Samsung j510fn. I have used the corect TWRP but I cannot enter the Recovery by using neither the combination volume up + home + power or volume up + power
How can I enter the Recovery and later on to boot my mobile device. Yes, the phone is rooted but I cannot enter the lock screen and do the other crap that there is.
Thanks for the help.
Your sincerely, Pikachu
Hey, I've got the same problem and I have a SAMSUNG Galalxy S6 with Android 7.0, it's rooted. I tried to install TWRP but : "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and my home button is broken ! I need help please !
@darksio01: Thank you for searching before posting. Too many people don't do that. As to "Recovery is not SEAndroid Enforcing", seeing that message is normal. The bootloader is merely telling you that the recovery is in permissive mode, which it has to be in order to flash custom ROMs, and will remain there as long as you have the custom recovery on your device.
If wanting to restore the stock recovery, you should be able to restore the stock recovery using Odin, as I don't believe you need the home button for the key combination. I know my Galaxy S4 the home button isn't required to get into download mode. I would look into getting that home button fixed first, if you can.
Thank you.
Thank you, everybody told me to change : first, my home button and 2 reinstall. You, you gave me the reason for this message "recovery is not seandoid enforcing", i will try to reinstall the TWRP because I think I have installed an incompatible version, Finally, it's impossible to go in Recovery/Download mode without The home key on a Galaxy S6 .
Thank you for your help, good bye !
PS : sorry for the english mistakes, I'm french

[Samsung S5 klte] Problem, button.

Hello everyone.
I have a small problem, before long I had a new ROM, so I decided to change it to the original through odin.
But I was without the power button, it was broken. After the installation got stuck in the Samsung loop, is it possible to solve without the button? I need to get into recovery mode.
:good::good:
well, you can try to pull the battery and hold the vol and home button while putting the battery back in. the power button isnt really needed to get it into recovery or download other than making it start the sequence

I apologize
I did not realize what I meant.
Adb is not enabled. I changed the ROM to the original.
I can get into recovery mode, I just can not continue because the power button is broken. And I can not clear the cache.
