i love mine so much, but there is no support

CWM Recovery
Did anyone ever tried this recovery for A5000, even it's for A5000 they say it works very welll on A500F

The recovery available on the same site for A3000 (SM-A300H) failed to boot. The only option was to flash the recovery from sock firmware. The recovery for A5 might work, but as a word of caution, keep the stock recovery (ODIN compatible) handy. Development for the A series has been painstakingly slow.

Thanks bro, finally there is custom recovery for our devices.
I got questions though:
1. Woluld they work on A300-fu?
2. Would they work kitkat?
Also, it would be helpful for A3 users if somebody could share those mods and deodex from that website to XDA since I couldn't understand how they to make them work.

Hi all! I've made a TWRP recovery for GALAXY A3! I can't test it because I don't have an A3 but if you test please tell me if it's work
This recovery is probably working on all A300x variants, flash it using Flashify.
It's made for LL (Lollipop) but you can try on KitKat

(REQ) Samsung Galaxy A8 SM-A800I (Root) SOLVED

I've searched and tried too many methods none of them worked.
I even broke my device (soft break) while I was trying to do a root using a method for SM-A800F model, and I had a really bad day.
I couldn't restore my device using stock rom it failed on writing boot.img step (using odin).
I had to extract boot.img from the stock firmware (using winrar) then creating a new boot.tar using this tool tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.07_by_mkh.mourad to fix the problem.
I've tried too many "one click root apps" for both PC and Android (king root, Frama, mobogenie, root genius, rootx, few more) also none of them worked.
any help would be great
Thanks
SOLVED
I managed to get my phone rooted by following the instructions on this reply
IzArsha said:
Download my file here for samsung galaxy a800i root <<DOWNLOAD>>, and make sure you are on 5.1.1, flash it on pda using odin. make sure you enable usb debugging and oem unlock option. Dont tick auto restart, Flash it and when it is done, hold power button to restart, then see the magic and press thanks button! give feedback either it is working or not. and if you want to donate me, please press the donation button. thank you.

I've got this response from RVR, But I'm not convinced that this solution will work, because the recovery is not for this device.
it's for Samsung Galaxy Alpha which has 5.0.2 android version, mine is 5.1.1.
I think he just opened androidfilehost forum and searched for A8 and got a file for wrong device:
androidfilehost.com/?w=search&s=A8
Here's the link ..
Select in the AP tab of odin
Uncheck the auto reboot button
flash
reboot straight into recovery
Try flashing the SuperSU zip .. : download.chainfire.eu/SuperSU
Keep Stock firmware handy to flash in case the zip flash fails

To fix the boot loop just re-Flash stock ROM (but no root yet)
Then find & flash custom PERMISSIVE Kernel for your Note 4 type if you are still want to be rooted.

you are facing a locked bootloader as we all are (both exy and snap) the only solution to fix your bootloop is to install apps like phone info then find out what your phone PDA version is then find the exact PDA from Sammobile or if you you are Having an 910C flash latest COJ5 rom or if you are on 910H try installing COJ4 rom (just download and install the latest frimware from sammobile or ... and you will be just fine )

Hi,
I already have a same problem with you, but i can through this..
you just find the right Firmware, its mean the latest firmware, try to download from sammoblie.com and find firmware for N910K picked the latest one. or folow this link : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/58333/N910KKTU2COJ5_N910KKTC2COJ5_KTC/
after download you just flash via Odin.
goodluck

Please provide me some information regarding your problem:
