[Q] Custom firmwares in ODIN - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl

any1 have a custom firmware? while flashing odin i read that custom os is harmful... what is a custom os? any examples?

After market firmwares like cyanogen mod's are considered custom OS's. You can include custom roms too but they are just themed versions of the stock firmware. So... cyanogen mod or Panandroid or MIUI etc are custom OS's.
But you needn't worry about that warning.

I desperately need either a custom rom or rooted rom that's flashable by Odin only because I have a Galaxy y with a dead SD card port! I've replaced the actual port as the other's pins were all over the place but the new one didn't make any difference so now I can only flash roms through Odin.
Would anyone have a Galaxy y custom rom with root or would some kind person like to make one especially for people who can't use the SD card port for whatever reason as i'm sure there's more than just me that would make use of it! Thanks in advance to anyone that can point me in the right direction.

It will overwrite the original settings. Trickster sticks as long as the app is installed.

Depends on the Rom and the kernel.
Provide that info .
And clicking the thanks button is better than writing
Although happy to help.

You have stock kernel ?? Trickster won't give you much options mate ... and my guess is it doesnt even work with stock kernel . You need OTHERS kernels like CIVZ or X-Note Kernel or Omega Kernel.

Maybe, but to be honest I am yet to be convinced as to how much I would benefit from a custom ROM. I scared myself after tripping the KNOX Counter without being aware of it. I currently have it rooted for a few apps only (Titanium and so on).
Plus seems ClockworkMOD Recovery isn't available for my N9005 (thats the message i get when trying to install it). TWERP not working despite ROM Manager stating it is installed. AND therefore....(are you still there?) I can't currently boot into a custom recovery mode anyway.
Phew!

you have to flash the latest recovery through odin , for twrp LINK1 TWRP 2.7.0.0 DOWNLOAD this file and flash it through ODIN 1.85 as that works best for recoverys and rooting .
if that recovery doesnt work try one of its older version
LINK2 TWRP 2.6.3.8

I'll install TWRP later - I preferred that when I had the Note 2
But in terms of ROMS, is it worth it....really? I can't recall being as excited about a custom ROM as I was about Jailbreaking iOS and installing Cydia.

Lol i know the feeling I am not saying this because i am a small part of x-note team but you should try x-note roms and you will see what features you might be missing on or for that matter any aosp rom or any other tw roms
MOST features on TW X-NOTE currently.

How presumptuous...
Far from being lazy, I am actually an extremely busy health care professional with a huge caseload of patients. I am not afforded the time that you might have in your job (presuming that you're working and not peeling stickers off your skateboard that is).
I took a rare lunch-break and thought I would ask a question. If that upset you maybe I should book you in with a colleague for some help?
Anyway, back to work - or your PlayStation maybe(?).
Thanks for your input, it was massively unhelpful, I'd appreciate it if you refrained from commenting on any of my future posts.....including this one. I doubt whether you'll be able to help yourself though....:fingers-crossed:

Download any TW ROM you want in the Android Developement Section and flash away. Remember to change your kernel to compatible for TW at the Original Android Development Section. If I help , press thank. :good:

Why use back original sammobile ROM when you have modified one at XDA? :x Your phone is already Knox 0x1. Original Sammy rom seems kinda pointless already. For kernel, you can try different kernels base on your liking. Lean Kernel , CivizSnapKat , Custom N3 , Aurora Kernel , etc. They're all flashable via TWRP or CWM.

Galaxy S4 CyanogenMod?

Guys is there a Official version of CyanogenMode for Galaxy s4 i9505 ? what is it? my phone is very laggy with the stock rom :/
The Cyanogenmod website lists the devices the ROM works on, so why not go there and, oh I don't know, look?

Yes, there is. You can fin it in the Original Android Development section. The maintainer is AntaresOne. He has 2 versions. One is the official nighlies and the other is an optimized version.
You can go for either one or, you can choose one of the other roms based on CM12 or CM12.1.

Why would you create a thread? There's hundreds for that exact thing already..I think some reading may be in order

It's because this forum is not a helpdesk. It takes 1 second to type "Cyanogenmod I9505" in Google or in the xda searchbar. Most developers don't like these kind of people in their rom threads but it lowers the quality of discussion dramatically.
It's the same for the question you asked in the CM optimized topic. It's not a helpdesk and it has nothing to do with that particularly rom. You can easily test which rom is more stable for you by flashing it.

My first rom was the 5.0.1 GPE rom, then tried CM12 Optimized builds, SaberMod CM12 and 12.1 builds and I am now currently running Resurrection Remix rom.
The most stable from the bunch (for me) was the GPE rom. The fastest and smoothest (for me) seems to be Resurrection Remix.
All of them ran stable for me, with no bugs or serious problems that could not be solved.
CM12 has reached a final version. The developer works on 12.1 now. CM12.1 nighlies is the most updated of the bunch.
Now, for the flashing. Before flashng you might want to backup your stuff. This requires root. You can use CF-Auto-Root to do it. Warning: This will trip knox.
Just google search "root s4 cf auto root" and follow the instructions in the thread. CF-Auto-Root does not work with all s4 variants, so make sure you have the right one.
If you don't want to backup anything, then you can just skip to installing a custom recovery.
There are 3 to choose from: CWM, TWRP or PhilZ Touch recovery.
I use TWRP. You should be able to flash it with Odin. Google on how to flash a custom recovery on the s4. Even if they are for different android versions, it's basically the same process.

Use it with KT Kernel. It gives you lots of customizability. You may have a green tinting at first, but this can be easily fixed. Settings > Display > LiveDisplay > Color Calibration and set all values there to 50% and hit Ok. Then just change the brightness so the changes take effect. Otherwise you will have to reboot.
Or you can use it with the default kernel.

Hello Dejan, thanks!
Do you really think the stock rom is better than all the available custom roms ?
I think, AuroraRom is the best for baterry. He is there http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/rom-aryamod-v1-tw-lollipop-t2990920 . If you want try him without wiping, you can use DualBoot Patcher Tool for MultiBoot ROMs.

So, what about the Temasek kernel configuration? Is there any topic about it? Or can you suggest me anything?

Yes, you can flash custom ROMs without Gapps. However, there will be no Google apps installed in your system. That means, there will be no Play Store (Market), Play Games, etc.
Custom ROMs are Firmwares/OS which customly made for our devices and some of them are customized or revised from the original Firmware. They are not the official firmware from Lenovo or other manufacturers.
It's your choice to flash Gapps or not. However, you must know what's the consequences.
I hope this helps.
