[Q] ClockworkMod Recovery for Samsung Galaxy Y

I was wondering if we could install permanent ClockworkMod recovery on Samsung Galaxy Y. According to the method mentioned here one needs to install ROM Manager and select Flash CLockworkMod Recovery and choose the phone as Galaxy Mini. But Galaxy Mini does not appear in the options.
Another method is listed here where you need to download the file and flash via stock recovery. But it is not a permanent ClockworkMod Recovery. Does someone know how to get permanent ClockworkMod Recovery?

There isn't one atm I think. You'll have to wait for a dev to make one.

you may also check on doky's post under development section or make a backup of your stock ROM via cwm before flash it to creed.

both methods DO NOT WORK.
recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-tass.zip and
CWM_bla_bla.zip
is the same stuff. not working as advertised (meaning: permanently replacing stock recov, if that is what the edify comment wants to say). nobody in this forum even claimed to have been successful.

You have to install an older version of Rom Manager where you can select your phone. Not the latest version of it. But to boot into it, you have to boot through Rom Manager app using 'Boot Into Recovery' option.

What would be the advantage of doing so ?

You may even flash a custom rom like hyperion 8 which has cwm as its default recovery..

Try hyperion 7/8

hi to all,
i think we, (s5360 users) can now have a permanent CWM recovery via ROM manager "VERSION 4.7.0.2" :laugh: mabe????
i had the attached apk file.( Maybe, this it is the oldest version of ROM manager) then after installing, must choose the phone as galaxy MINI as you try to install CWM recovery on it.
of course, you have to boot into recovery via ROM manager.
Hope it helps

That is because of the kernel... So instead of flashing the rom u can flash custom kernel. Besides H8 final doesn't have kernel in it....

Remeber one thing.... A permanent CWM comes with a custom kernel. Otherwise you will have to flash CWM.zip manually from the stock recovery.

Flashing custom ROM'S Without PC/Laptop

Hi Folks,
Just got my 32GB Nexus 7 and am in the process of rooting and of course i will be no doubt trying out custom ROM's i see Paranoid Android and Liquid Smooth both of which i have used (current PA) for the Galaxy S3 also have ROM's for the Nexus 7, anyway i will be selling my laptop and just using the Nexus from here on in, my question is, is it recommended to download Goo Manager to download and Install ROM's, etc, i usually use CWM but am aware that Goo Manager seems to be the more updated and popular choice thesedays and seen as im new to the Nexus i thought you folks could offer some assistance here.
Cheers

Don't need goo manager to flash roms it is just like ROM manger to a degree. I only use it to install the latest twrp recovery and to to check for ROM updates. Seem like u already know how to flash so I won't get into that. Use this site and are others to get ROMs for our n7 store them in a folder ( I have one title Roms) and flash as normal.

Download it from the thread and boot into recovery manually. I wouldn't use goo or ROM manager to flash anything. You did already unlock the boot loader and flash a custom recovery correct? This requires a PC.

Also use CWM to flash roms. I use goo to check if there are ROM updates.

I didn't flash custom recovery but yeah unblocked the bootloader and rooted, cool I'll install cwm then.
Cheers guys

You can only install a custom recovery after being rooted. And the only way to root is to flash a superuser package with you guessed it, a custom recovery. You can't just install ROM manager and flash a custom recovery. You have to manually flash one with fastboot on a PC.

[Q] Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 root OMEGA

Hello.
Nice to meet your community.
I have second day my new galaxy S4.I sold my previous Iphone 4s which was jailbroked in the latest level i could,as was my 3GS before 3 years.
I decided to enter Android family and this is my first touch of serious Android phone as i am newbie here.
Searching in the internet i found that the best custom rom is OMEGA,so i entered your community to help me out.
In the subject now:
My firmware is I9505XXUBMGA.
I have download I9505_Omega_v10_XXUBMH1_md5_FF0929179DC10DB316C38969CE2AFDC0 and put in Internal memory at "Downloads" but as i see there is a different firmware XXUBMH1 from mine.
I tried to put it with VOLUME UP+HOME+POWER buttons but my CWM has not advanced settings so i pressed cache wipe and now the CWM do not open.
CWM is recovery mode as i understood,right?
What are the steps?I go to another firmware and to another CWM and then i pass OMEGA?

1st, go to developer section and read the installation instructions for Omega... You have tried to flash a custom rom with a stock recovery... NOT GONNA HAPPEN...
You need to root your phone, install a custom recovery and then flash the custom rom.
Do some reading before you brick your new toy...

Hi, welcome in the Android community !
First check the device you own, because GT-I9505 and GT-I9500 are not the same and ROM that fit the first can brick the second and vice-versa.
Then, you have to root your phone, then to install a custom recovery.
Tutorials for these two steps can be found here, Q4 and Q5 answers.
Once these two steps are successfully completed, you can then flash the OMEGA zip file in recovery mode.

Thank you both guys.
I am reading now to get ready.

I have done Q4 but i do not understand these informations:
Installation and usage
Flash the CF-Auto-Root package as PDA in ODIN (details on how to do that are in next post), and your device should reboot into a modified recovery (signified by a large red Android logo) and it will install SuperSU for you and restore the stock recovery, and reboot back into Android.
If you don't get to the red Android logo, boot into recovery manually ("adb reboot recovery", or boot while holding Power+VolUp+Home).
Using this root increases your flash counter. You should run Triangle Away (see below) after rooting to reset the counter. Note that if you want to run custom kernels or custom recoveries, your flash counter will be set to 1 at every boot. Either configure Triangle Away to reset the counter at every boot (Play version only) or only reset the counter when you need to go into warranty.
Did you see the red Android logo during rooting, but SuperSU does not appear? This may sometimes occur due to left-over files and settings, however, you can usually install SuperSU from Google Play at this stage and it'll just work.
Why isn't this just called CF-Root
The traditional CF-Root's included a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP, etc) and were meant for devices that had a single kernel/recovery combination. CF-Auto-Root doesn't include a custom recovery and is meant for devices that have kernel and recovery separate (so you can manually install any custom recovery you wish). The Auto part comes from the fact that a large part of the process is automated (though it constantly needs adjusting)
Not included - Triangle Away
Triangle Away can be used to reset the flash counter after installing CF-Root. The flash counter keeps track of how many custom firmwares you have flashed, as this voids warranty. (No idea what this about ? Read up on it, you will want to use this !)
Not included - adbd Insecure
As this CF-Root does not include a custom kernel, adb shell does not have root access by default (you can still get it by typing su inside the shell), nor is adb remount supported, nor will adb push and adb pull work on system files. adbd Insecure can be used to remedy this situation. (No idea what this is about ? Don't worry about it !)

Second reply says how it is done.
I have done it successfuly,is there any other to do before Q5?

I have done both steps successfuly (as i think).
In first step i found SuperSu and in second the CWM has pasted.
Now can i root OMEGA?
I have I9505XXUBMGA.

Thank you for your help,by the way.

If you already rooted your phone, and install those custom recovery, then just do what indie says in his post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40778466&postcount=4
you should go fine if you really really follow those step

I have done both but i have put PhilZ CWM instead of TWRP as recommended for the omega installation.
The only thing for me is the kernel.
Is there any problem that mine is different than omegas rom kernel?
So does not mater the kernel you are been to if you are rooted?

Omega installs the rooted stock kernel so it won't matter what current kernel you're using. There's plenty of kernels available. You can only install kernels that support Samsung (TW) firmware.

Yes, like @symondo12 said, omega comes with stock kernel, so it will not be problem. For recovery, that's fine whatever recovery you use, it can install same thing, but TWRP has very user friendly view than the other.
From your post before, I think what you mean is the build number, that's like the software version. Your current version is the one same with omega v9,so if you install omega with version newer than the v9, it's like you got upgrade from your current version
Sorry for the bad english, I hope you understand what I'm saying

Yes i understand and i have done both.
It is OMEGA now
Thanks for your help.

Rooting with towelroot

Hey!
I rooted my phone with towelroot and installed superuser and ROM Manager. Through ROM Manager I installed CWM but upon recovery booting I found it booted into the Android stock recovery 3e rather than CWM. I tried reflashing and rebooting but that didn't work. I deleted /system/recovery-from-boot.p* and /system/etc/install-recovery.sh as this is supposed to fix it but I still went into the Android recover. Can someone help me to get CWM working on my Samsung SGH-I337?
Edit: I found on ROM Manager it says: "SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 does not have an officially supported ClockworkMod Recovery yet. Have you installed a ClockworkMod based recovery manually?" How can I install one manually?
