I'm a relatively new user of the android device and I was wondering if someone could help me install ICS on my phone.
The first thing I did was the section 5 of this thread to root my phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238070
Then, I tried following the instructions on this thread to install ICS: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11850-romicsiml74k-teamhacksungs-ics-port-for-fascinate-build-5-0114/
One thing I noticed from reading around though, was that I needed to do a NANDROID backup. In order to do that, I downloaded the 'ROM Manager' and tried to 'Reboot into Recovery'. However, it wouldn't boot into recovery, so I did a quick search and figured out the solution, which was found here: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-samsung-galaxy-s-i9000/
In order to solver this problem, I realized that I had to download a kernel that's applicable to my drive. I'm now looking at my kernel version to figure out which file to download, but I'm having a hard time going from there.
As you can see, I'm kind of all over the place, so I decided to stop before I screw up my phone. Can anyone please help me out or point me to the right direction?
Thank you!

Use droidstyle's guide for everything. It is step by step, no way to fail.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
First you don't need to root your phone to flash a new rom. We almost need his in big bold letters in the guide, because this is a huge misconception.
I never do.nadroids, I back up what I want and reinstall.the programs I need. You can always Odin back to stock if.something goes wrong. The advantage to rooting is that you.can now use titanium backup to back up your programs. (I have the least problems if I install them from the market and then restore data only.)
Then flash CWM fixed for CM7. Three finger into recovery. If the phone boots it will reflash the stock recovery and you'll have to flash it again.
Install ICS.
??
Profit.
I see You found section 5 in my guide, but you missed the part right at the top that says "this is not needed if flashing a custom rom". Also, how did you miss section 3 that has the exact instructions for putting ICS on your phone?

Damn it, you're right. I guess I'm an idiot.
Is it OK that I go straight to section 3 right now? Or must I un-root the device first?
No your fine to move ahead, a rooted phone wont hurt you.
Hi guys, every time I flash my phone it doesnt seem to do anything. It just reboots up with stock rooted stock firmware. I dont know what I am doing wrong. I have used odin, mobile odin, twrp, cwm and still I cant get anything to work. i have tried to flash pacman, google play edition and several others with no affect. i am completely stumped

Try flashing Philz Touch recovery, its the most stable recovery imo. Available for both the I9500 and I9505.Flash the .tar file with Odin in PDA.
I keep getting the message e signature verification failed. i have used auto root. i have enabled usb debugging. i have done everything in the steps of the rooting process and flashing process.
Slight progress
So I downloaded CWM recovery again and toggled off signature verification and I successfully managed to install my ROM. New porblem now, when I reboot the device it goes straight back to recovery mode every single time? Help please?
Hi - so I dont know if you guys think Im being stupid and/or lazy and havent found the right thread or if I am just asking a stupid question. If I am would someone kindly point me in the right direction and forgive my ignorance. If I am not being stupid can someone PLEASE help me with an answer. I have posted on several forums with this question and no one seems prepared to offer a solution. This is by no means a rant at forum members - I just hate being defeated by technology - and I have waited a week now for someone to offer me some much needed guidance.
Ok guys, I'm really confused. I got this phone from a friend and the backstory was that it was once rooted and running a custom rom with google play apps, but someone did a hard reset or something and it went back to stock, which is hard to believe, but that's what they're telling me. If the info is correct, that means someone successfully flashed it at some point.
I found this guide https://www.lineageosroms.org/forums/forum/samsung/galaxy-s5-china-sm-g9006v-sm-g9008v-kltechn/ and got stuck right away. I can't get TWRP to work. Odin says it's done, but all I get is the stock recovery.
I found multiple threads about this phone, but it's all very confusing to say the least and I don't know where to begin with. I hope there's someone here using it who can give me some pointers as to how I can flash this thing.
Thanks in advance.
EUREKA! I've done it. All i had to do is uncheck the auto reboot option and use the key combination for entering recovery while still in the download mode. That got me to TWRP and I was able to successfully flash the rom and gapps.
Hope that info is useful to someone else.
I have a Galaxy J3 (2016) J320ZN.
I have rooted it, and would like to install TWRP then xsposed, maybe even another ROM if there is any that will work.
Will the TWRP posted here for other models work on my phone?
How about ROMs? Thank you.:silly:

I've only just worked this out myself and was going back to update my post...did a search and that's how I found your question.
I've had so much trouble with this... either, you couldn't get root using SuperSU.zip through TWRP (there's another thread on this)... because you'd get stuck in a bootloop and my "solution" was to flash CF-Auto-Root again... without realizing that CF-Auto-Root wipes to stock recovery XD. Through this, though I lost my phone re-set up and TWRP.... I saw that there was a dm-verity error which I don't understand but know there is a patch.... and maybe that's why people were getting bootloops? I'm really not an expert at all. I just try until something works.
SO, you could just first try flashing TWRP for J3lte from the link I provided and then the latest SuperSU and see if that works now.....(earlier versions did not) if it doesn't work and you get stuck in a bootloop then flash CF-Auto-Root (available at: https://download.chainfire.eu/986/C...3lteusc-j3lteusc-smj320r4.zip?retrieve_file=1) and start again. I PERSONALLY only had success without a bootloop ONCE I added the dm-verity patch to my install procedure:
The TWRP that will work for the J320ZN is j3lte: https://dl.twrp.me/j3lte/
I used the latest version twrp-3.2.1-0-j3lte.img.
If you need in-depth help look for a tutorial or quote me and I'll respond & try walk you through it. I know that model J320YZ uses the same TWRP and there is a tutorial on XDA for the basics.....
Once TWRP is installed and you've booted into TWRP recovery and you've formatted, Install SuperSU.zip through the "Install" button on TWRP. You must have SuperSU.zip on your external SD card (click "Select Storage" to select it).
https://download.chainfire.eu/1220/SuperSU/SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip
I used v.2.82 SR5
Finally, BEFORE REBOOTING, I installed no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip using the same TWRP "Install" button method - which was also on my external SD card
https://androidfilebox.com/miscellaneous/dm-verity-and-forced-encryption-disabler/
Then you can reboot, and set up your phone. Xposed works. If you already ran the fixes using Apps2SD to fix security measures that prevntd Link2SD from creating mountscripts, that stays fixed after all of this.
BACK UP YOUR PHONE FIRST 'cos you'll have to reset it all up again. Samsung Smart Switch (on your PC) helps, as will Titanium Backup.
Now.... as I said I'm not an expert. I don't understand why things are the way they are. Nor am I responsible if the dm-verity wasn't needed, which is why maybe you should just try TWRP then latest SuperSU first. BUT for me, I had bootloop and needed the 3rd step of dm-verity patch.
As for Custom ROMS... I have no real interest in those, so that's something you'll have to experiment with yourself, or ask someone else
IMPORTANT: I thought I'd better add that once you've got TWRP and root installed... and want to install Xposed, you cannot use the official version for Android 5.1.1. It will not work on our Samsung Touchwiz Stock ROMS. You can either install a custom ROM first, or you will have to use the Unofficial version by wanam that will work on device.
Here's a tutorial: https://www.tricksfolks.com/install-xposed-framework-samsung-lollipop-marshmallow/
Make sure to select from the download links the file for 5.1.1 and our hardware is arm so download that file, not arm64 version or x86 version. Should be xposed-v87.1-sdk22-arm-custom-build-by-wanam.zip
Also note, I had some issues with the Xposed Installer (apk) - latest one 3.2. Didn't want to register the wanam framework that I flashed in TWRP. So, I rolled back to 3.1.5 and that works OK. You'll have a big red warning telling you not to update THEIR framework... but ignore that and just go to Downloads and install away.
The article I linked above with the tutorial and download links has an earlier version of the Xposed Installer so you could try that if you can't find v.3.1.5. Just don't use v.3.2
ALSO ANYBODY PLEASE UPDATE ME IF YOU GOT TWRP AND ROOT WITH OR WITHOUT DM-VERITY PATCH. I'd like to know so I can learn more about this stuff. Still a novice.
Annnnnd I just realized you were the one that PMed me a few weeks ago to get me working on this and that you'd broken your phone hehehehe.
Well, I'm just updating it on all the J320ZN threads now for future folk.

Wow, thanks for going through the pain so I may not have to go through so much. Would you be able & willing to help me get my wife's SM J320ZN rooted so I can get the sd card used for apps? She doesn't need too much on there but the bloody thing goes to low memory way too soon. I'd love to know if I can get a better os on there too if you can make any suggestions.
I've got enough knowledge to be able to install lineageOS onto my crappy moto e & get that working ok but I'm still on the steep learning curve.
If you can, please provide a step-by-step guide to do this? I know you've said most of what needs to happen in your posts, but when I see "Once TWRP is installed and you've booted into TWRP recovery and you've formatted,..." I'm wondering what should get formatted, what shouldn't, etc
Warm regards
Hi guys,
So, this is a last resort. I've followed a number of different guides and methods, but nothing has worked. The closest "success" I've had is with a Chainfire auto root; it flashes, it breaks Knox, but I still don't have SU. Could it be because I don't have an SD card? I saw it as a prerequisite in some guide but didn't really put much stock in it as that was a single mention which also involved loading it with verity, which I'm more interested in removing.
I've also tried twrp, which that looked like it had bricked my device, though I managed to recover it by flashing the auto root again. I'm speculating that it's something to do with the latest updates, but really I'm just clueless and frazzled after 4+ hours of wracking my brains. I'm not sure what other info you'd find helpful anymore without going full splurge, so I'll keep it sweet and let you question me or berate me for my vile, witholding ways as you see fit. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Edit:
My SU checker says that I've not got the binaries or root user account. The .tar from firmware.mobi is only 54mb. I tried turning off suhide, but changed no other options. Trying to use fastboot straight up fails, the device isn't recognised after adb booting (despite having tried the correct drivers and some random others multiple times over.) I've been unable to locate a release for the T585 on twrp site, though a version is out there on these forums from a year or so back.

The only way I know of to successfully root a Tab A is by flashing TWRP and then using it to flash SU or Magisk. What version of TWRP are you using and what version of Odin? Using the correct ones won't brick a T585.
When I got my Tab A a couple of weeks ago I did a LOT of reading first ... but then it took less than 24 hrs from receiving it to having it rooted + running RR Oreo
Following the guide HERE I enabled OEM Unlocking and installed Odin.
Using Odin I flashed twrp-3.2.3-4-gtaxllte-OMNI6.tar from HERE.
Using the freshly installed TWRP I flashed RR-O-v6.2.1-20181210-gtaxllte-Unofficial.zip from HERE, Gapps from HERE and the latest Magisk from HERE.
That was it - rooted and ready to go :victory:
The first guide pretty much covers all the steps you need, I simply used a different TWRP version. You can't brick your device flashing TWRP unless you flash something that's not for your device. Make SURE to enable OEM Unlock first - and don't use SuperSU but Magisk.
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

But it should work on either one - only difference now is that we have an official recovery that can be downloaded from twrp.me directly :highfive:

Does this need twrp-3.2.3-4-gtaxllte-OMNI6.tar to go from Oreo to Pie?
I am not finding -OMNI.tar anywhere. All links are dead.
Can I use a newer version of TWRP?
Thanks.

Ok, so I went ahead and tried with the latest TWRP (3.3.1.1), RR (v7.0.2).
Everything seemed to go well..... except, tablet is now stuck in boot animation. It won't startup.
I double checked and I don't think I missed any steps.... Any ideas on what I can try?
Thanks.

Update:
I tried to restore the backup via TWRP and ended up with a "unable to mount /system" error.
My /system partition was showing zero size.
Many wipes and restores didn't help.
Eventually, what seemed to help was to choose repair the system partition, change file system to FAT, change file system back to ext4. Saw it in a youtube video- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-7neHzSIvc
After /system error was fixed, I did an install of RR again and it went smooth.
All is well now.
Hope this helps someone.

Back then we had no working official version and the Omni6 one was the only one without issues. Now we have the official and it should work just fine.
No idea why you had those problems, but I'm glad you got it all sorted
