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

Tnx but I haven't twrp installed.. Could I simply flash it from download mode and odin? without have any possibility to activate debug mode or something that I have to do from the os?

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..

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?

Okay solution is not that hard! Here what to do! (On mobile so can't provide links just Google them)
Use the PHILZ CWM,
And flash SUPERSU.ZIP from Philz cwm,
To flash philz cwm use manual method! With computer!

I hope you have every driver installed on PC!
And also Android-SDK.
PUT THE PHILZ cwm recovery in Android-sdk > Platfoam-tools
Open CMD and nevegate to the platform tools.
Put phone in ap fastboot mode
Connect to PC
Type this in CMD . Fastboot flash recovery (recovery name).IMG
For ex:
Fastboot Flash recovery Philzcwm.IMG
Its not a noob guide if you can't understand still then I will tell you in deep

Flash twrp via fastboot flash recovery <filename.IMG>
Then boot directly into recovery and flash SuperSU... There ya have it you got root... I'll try n find the TWRP for our device...
We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.

You are a lot more experienced then me. But I may suggest to him that he should put the Philz cwm.. Because it contains a lot extra features!
thank you so muach
which kind of version is better for JB for CWM or TWRP ?
can you link me the files?
If you go to droidrzr.com and check the VZW Droid Razr M [XT907-CDMA/LTE] forum under Legacy Devices, and go to the development section. There is a developer there named Nobe1976 who is currently maintaining TWRP for our device. Currently he has us up to 2.8.1.0, which is working without any issues on my phone. Hope that helps.
But works with jb or kk?

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.

So if I have this phone but with g361fxxu1apc2 firmware can I still flash one of these on my phone, and will it work?

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

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

For sure, u can flash original Flyme rom without TWRP but stock recovery must work.or u can try Flashtool and similar tools from a PC if u r able to have a signed token.
I'm just thinking. Is it able to push recovery into system files via root explorer? All we need to know is what files and where paste it... Is it possible?

Only way to solve this is taking the phone to technical service. Done it myself. Be careful tought, they will try to make you change the entire mother board (280€), but if you insist they will "find a way" to install the correct software in your phone and leave it as if it was new
