Yes downloaded from cwm official website. I saw that it is really simple but are you sure that the recovery.img need to be placed in the bat folder and not in the bin folder?
Inviato dal mio GT-I9070 con Tapatalk 2

yes im sure. please take a snapshot of your problem...

Couldn't you make it convert the .img into a signed stock recovery flashable zip?

you can download any recovery for your phone that is flash able in cwm. and just open it up with 7zip or winrar and replace the recovery.img file with yours, rename it ofc

No no, I want the recovery.img to become a flashable zip from stock recovery.
shokran

@panda00 no thats simply not possible without samsung's sign signature on that update zip file, and im sure they wont do that, that happens only in rare cases
as in only twice. i think once with the vibrant and once with the captivate

It's been done for all kernels of i9070... They're all flashable through stock recovery, also the root method for i9070 is also a stock recovery flashable zip.

thats becouse its a insecure, witch is different because you would have to flash that in odin, witch just makes no point to this conversation, why just not flash recovery in odin
1 flash? 2 flash?

[SOLVED] Cooking n9005 rom

Hi, i'm trying to cook a n9005 rom (deodex, root, busybox, init.d support, data/app support) using dsixda kitchen version 0.224 (updated with this package) but, after rom installation in CWM, at reboot, i get the message "could not do normal boot" in odin mode.
This is what i do:
1. setup working folder and follow instructions to extract system and cache img
2. deodex using api level 18
3. add root permissions (choosing "f" - chainfire-update)
4. install busybox
5. add /etc/init.d support
6. add /data/app support
7. delete some apks from system folder (like polaris office, chrome, etc)
8. build rom, option 99, using "1" interactive mode (zipaligning, creating update.zip and signing, all whitout errors)
9. install in cwm without errors
10. reboot
11. odin mode with message "could not do normal boot"
I think i miss something, maybe during root or init.d support processes, but i don't get any error message while cooking.
What can i do? Thanks.
Hi,
I have the same problem. Also i used kitchen version 224 but not updated with that package.
Seem to work everything ok, but when i want to flash it, it hooks up, sometimes with an cwn error, and sometimes with the same message you got.
After trying a lot with other custom roms the solution for me is that the update-binary is not correct. Copied over from other rom, edited updater script to my needs and everything is fine....
Still do not know where tje problem is.... always take clean samsung stock rom, doesn't matter if i use windows or ubuntu, result is the same
So i use the workaround and it works at least for me...

I'll try, thank you! Do you know how update binary is created?

No sorry, i can't help you out with that, i am really a noob on Android-stuff.... i put that mod on my kitchen.... now update binary fits, but boot.img won't work... i get a cwm error 7
... i read all the messages about error 7, and.it would be easy to handle if those lines which you should delete were there )) nothing helped out, till i testet a boot.img from another custom rom....
Finally i got my "own" rom working.... ))

Samsung Galaxy Core Prime SM-G361F

Hey guys, i need some help with rooting my new phone, is there any way to root my samsung galaxy core prime with android 5.1.1(lollipop)? I tryed all one-click root's and all root's without pc and not even odin is working... if anyone could help that would be great... thank you in advance
Bro you can check this Pre-Rooted firmware here
No thanks... i dont want to do that, and i dont even installed cmw... but thanks

Guys HELP !!! I installed a custom recovery but i cant boot into it... dont now what to do do now... help me please...
Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk
you guys are posting preloaded firmwares with root. why not just put a root file online for everyone to have? i dont understand why would you specially make a preloaded firmware with root.
Also, when I extracted the Preloaded root firmware using cmd prompt, it only has one .img file called "System.img" when it should basically provide me with all img and bin files. I cant even extract root file from this firmware. its very clever but you dont have to hide the root file from public when you are actually providing us with the preloaded root firmware.
DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME!!

Sorry,but you can't root Core Prime G361F yet. The only way to do it, is to use a pre-rooted stock rom.
But there are only a couple of them so far. I have tried everything, and I have read tons of threads.
We have to wait until someone figures it out.

Yes, you can flash your phone using a firmware for another region,but it must be for SM-G361F.

Now you are talking about the sim-card. It has nothing to do with flashing your phone.

So you want to root the original rom
It is easy
Flash twrp into the phone
Put supersu flashable zip in the sdcard
Flash the zip with twrp
Hello sir
Follow my steps for successful TWRP/ROOT
1.)Download and install Samsung USB Drivers
2.)Download TWRP 3.0.2.0
3.)Download Odin
4.)Download SuperSU.zip file
For download links message me or add me on facebook facebook. com/fRoD.cs
After you complete this 4 steps shutdown your phone and enter into Download Mode
Volume Down + Power + Home
Select continue by Volume Up key
Now connect phone with usb cable into pc and run Odin as administrator
Click on AP box and select the twrp.tar file you download before
Go to Options tab and uncheck Auto Reboot, make sure that only F, Reset Time is checked and click start
After successfully installed TWRP , remove the battery, put it back and make sure that you go into recovery mode immediately!!! Volume Up + Power + Home
If you boot up the phone it will restore the original recovery. Thats why you need to go to recovery mode first.
First time you boot in recovery it will be shown a TWRP screen asking to allow modifications to system partition. Swipe to accept that.
Now select Install option and select SuperSU.zip file. By default it should be in Download folder, and swipe to start install
After installing click reboot and your SM-G361F will be rooted. You should have SuperSU app in the menu
Hi guys,
how do you root on this phone?
What is the file to program with Odin? Is not there a guide?
Thank you
Up!!!

Updating firmware (with root)

Hi all,
I was asked to start my own thread, so here goes.
I have a S7 edge. I rooted it and also removed quite many apps with the de-bloat script posted in another thread.
So now I have the issue that i removed too much. There are two apps that I still want to use (which require NFC and the Heartrate sensor, which are also disabled since the script).
On top of that, Samsung has released an update.
So what do I need to do to get back to a) stock and b) without loosing any data.
I already downloaded the latest firmware for my phone, it includes all the files (AP, Bootloader, CSC, ...).
Thanks.
Just flash the /system (inside AP) partition with flashfire APP and you are ready to go
Well this worked pretty great. Thanks a lot!

In this thread you can find the latest firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3335065/page160
You can also flash with Odin. But with Odin you will loose root as this is original firmware. Just download, copy to your phone and follow the steps, if you are rooted flashfire will work fine
Note : in case you flash the hole firmware be carefull with the csc, You have the instructions on the same thread

the phone is an 901F .. i've found a program (drfone) that could help me to unlock the phone, but when i select samsung s5 i can select only the 900F variant. There is any problem if I try to unlock the phone using the app for the variant 901F instead of mine, 901F one? Thank you!
If you have TWRP installed you can easilly remove the password by deleting the .key files and locksettings.db-- from /data/system

AFAIK you can flash TWRP directly from odin without the need of debug mode, so I'd suggest you try that.

thank you, i succesfully done it!
i've succesfully managed to install twrp (just using odin 3.09, unchecked autoreboot, flashed last twrp and wait 3 mins and said "passed") .. so, i've unconnect the s5 from pc.. got out the battery to turn off the phone and without any reboot i've entered recovery and (after a backup) i've flashed a file ("rmpass.zip" or something similar) ..reboot without install any of twrp app (just click on "do not install") .. and done..
