Hey fellow XDA members!
I want to flash CWM for the GT-S5570 but I don't know how to do it. I already tried the zip file from Clockwork but whe i flash it my phone screen goes like wtf but I can still use the recovery. My phone is rooted. Flashing with ROM Manager is my last option and I don't want to brick my phone again because my parents are going to freak out. (I already bricked it 4 times lol). Thanks for coming help!
Hi Accecier!
don't flash CWM using ROM Manager, you're right, it can probably brick your phone, anyway, here's the link on how to flash/install CWM in Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5570. Installing ClockWorkMod Recovery using Odin.
I'm also using SGM GT-S5570, and I installed CWM long ago using the steps which are stated in that link, just read and follow carefully every steps that includes in the above link. If you have the problem on installing it, just drop back here and I'll try my best to help you out
Goodluck

Ok thanks
By the way, how could it happen the official zip from CWM doesn't work? It's made for my phone though..
That's why I never have trust in tutorials lol. It bricked so many times

Hi All,
I have tried to find an answer to this question on XDA forum and tried to google it as well, but came up with nothing. So if it has been answered before, I apologize in advance.
I have rooted my i9100 using CF-ROOT. I was running XWLP8 so I used the corresponding rooted kernel and all is well. Currently I am using Resurrection Remix latest version.
No I want to have official clockworkmod touch recovery on my phone. I have installed ROM Manager and downloaded recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-galaxys2.zip from clockworkmod website. I flashed it using CWM that came with CF-ROOT.
This is where things go wrong. After I flashed the new recovery and tried to reboot into recovery from ROM Manager, I got a blank screen. Tried to press some buttons but it gave me an intermittently flashing white screen, nothing else.
I tried to reboot normally again but it wouldn't do that either. I guess it was a soft brick.
So I had to flash CF-ROOT kernel using Odin, and then flash Resurrection Remix again. After that, things are ok. But now I am reluctant to try the new touch recovery.
So my question is, has anyone encountered this before? If so, is there a proven way to this?
Thanks for your help.
Rom manager doesn't work on S2.
Get the zip file and flash using cwm as normal and it will be updated to touch.
NOOOOOOOO DO NOTTTTTT use rom manager.
That thing is responsible for so much damage over the last 12 month, it sucks big time.
Look whats the issue here, if you have flashed cfroot kernel then you alread have a version of recovery on your phone which is no different to the official cwm recovery, get the same things, and you get the cwm app in ya app drawer, very very powerful little rom and kernel flashing tool indeed.
SO, what is it you really want, at a guess id say, you really want to the touch recovery, because the normal one isnt going to give you anything different to what you already have.
Goto the recovery site or use google to find it, download the latest version for your phone, stick it on the root of your sd card, reboot to cwm recovery that you already have, and choose to flash zip.
Done.
Thank you all, I will try this method as spoon as i manage and let you know. Thanks

try reinstall a stock rom, check if everythings is fine then reinstall CM9
Thnx for the quick response
I think the problem isn't cm9, when I was trying to install the from I couldn't boot to the cwm recovery because I forgot to root my device. Then I rooted my s3 with cf something root kit and then my signals were gone. I have the international version so my phone should be factory unlocked so I thought I should install cm anyway cuz that might solve the problem. But it didn't. I really like cyanogenmod and don't want to revert back to crappy touchwizz . The problem was there before installing cm9 but after rooting my phone.
Please any help. I really need to use my phone.
Thnx

You should reinstall everything from the scratch mate, so revert your device at stock (using odin), then flash the correct [email protected] kernel and finally if everything is working flash cm9.
Edit: if your device is locked i think you can unlock it easily, search in the forum you can find out everything you need for this.

sorry mate ..
i am a complete noob, i dont know how to revert to stock rom, stock recovery and unroot my device
Download original firmware for your phone from sammobiles and flash it using odin. If is good then root it again and flash cm9.

Okay,
I have downloaded my firmware file but i noticed that i need three tar files for the flashing precess through ODIN but i downloaded only 1 file *.tar.md5
no clue now what to do
Update: I tried to extract the file using splitfus but it didnt work.
Update 2: Okay now I have Installed my stock firmware and it seems to be working now.. But should I risk installing the CM9 again ?

- launch Odin
- load that ONE FILE on PDA section
- put your phone in download mode (volume down+home+power)
- connect the phone to computer, wait for drivers to be installed and ODIN to find your phone (you will see a message in Odin)
- click start
- don't touch the phone until it's done. It will boot alone
Also, it might be a good idea to wipe data / reset to factory before and after flash.
You could find all this info with google ....
On the topic, I have a similar issue. My phone was factory unlocked , and got locked after flashing latest stock firmware. Downgrading didn't solved anything. I am searching the forums right now, but it seems like all fixes are dated.
If anyone could point me in the right direction, it will be appreciated.
Thx
Hey rsndetre,
Thnx for the post, but sorry I already did that and it worked ..
Here are the method I used to get back my device back to normal and got my sim card working and again reinstalled cm9
1- Downloaded Toolkit from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
2- Flashed Stock Boot Image
3- Flashed Stock Recovery Mode
4- Downloaded stock firmware from http://fus.nanzen.se/
5- Flashed stock firmware using Odin (your method above)
6- Rooted the device again (using odin and CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4)
7- Downloaded and placed cm9 and google apps package in SDCARD
8- Installed Rom Manager from Play Store.
9- Downloaded and Installed ClockWorkMod from rom manager and booted to recovery mode using RomManager
10- Then factory resetted, formatted the cache and installed the CM9 and GAPPS V11
Then my phone was good to go.
My phone is up and running, thanks rsndetre, Arsaw and TecQuality for your replies. I appreciate your time
Thanks

First of all im a noob so please bear with me, i have just bought my I9300 and i wanted it rooted like everyone else, i followed the steps, everything was sunshine and rainbows, the intallation was succesful and my device was rooted until i intalled rom manager and it intalled his own recovery and it is not working properly, now i want to get ride of that and intall one that works. PLEASE HELP, i dont want to brick my device.
When you installed rom manager it installed clockwork mod. (cwm)
You use this recovery instead from now on.
You can backup your rom or flash a new one or flash a modem or kernel..
There are loads of guides on this check one out if your not sure what to do..
Good luck

Hello and sorry to post this problem here as i have the tmobile note but i used the att i717 rooting method from rootgalaxynote.com ofcourse did not use an att based rom but a tmobile one( cm10.1 rc2) . The problem is after clearing everything i then proceed to install the new rom using cwm and it says "install aborted" error section 7 ive tried it a few times cleared everything again and still nothing. Dont know if i need to update cwm and if so how vers.5.0.5 or something like that or is it the build which is the lates update by tmo uvlma1 and the instructions were from may of 2012. Please help i have gone back to stock for now as i did backup first. Ps i have installed titanium backup pro and and superuser and have even frozen some of the bloatware from tmo so im guessing i am rooted. Please help as the tmo threads are dead and no help from no one!! Thanks a bunch guys
Just update your recovery dude.
Twrp is superior to cwm imo anyway.
This has been discussed many times. Since you are coming from T-Mobile forum here is a link which was recently discussed. Staus 7 means you need to upgrade your recovery.

You did not check the link and you ignored the other users recommendation.

Your phone will stay in download mode to flash a recovery.
Once flashed boot into that every and flash a Rom within.
Put your phone to download mode. Make sure you have drivers installed. Open odin(i used v1.85). Put the twrp recovery tar file in to pda slot. Conect your phone to your computer in download mode. Once odin finds your device then press start.

Hi.
First of all, I want to thank all the users of this forum, I found many helpful things and you're amazing.
Second, my english is a little bad, so I apologize for any mistake.
Now, the problem:
I have a rooted Grand Quattro that is stuck at the logo screen (the one that shows name and model of device). I can't boot to recovery mode, only to download mode. How can I make the phone start again? I have a backup of ROM that I've made with CWM, but I can't access CWM to restore, and can't reflash CWM (device says "signature verification failed" after every attempt with Odin 3.07).
I need help, I've searched through these foruns and another places, but couldn't find a suitable answer.
Thanks for attention
Flash Fresh ROM again via odin
BTW which rooting method did you use? There are better and easy methods. Use Kingo App to root the phone.
Try flashing the stock rom again via odin while in download mode ofcourse. Because you are able to do to download mode. Right?
Then download kingo app and root your phone. Don't use cwm method unless you want to flash any other script or custom rom in your phone.
Also uninstall USB drivers and install it again.
Let me know if some new problem arises. :fingers-crossed:
Cheers :good:
Thanks for response.
I flashed the stock rom and it worked again (and I didn't lost programs and personal files )
I opened this thread because I couldn't download the stock rom from Terafile, but I managed to download and install after some time.
About your question: I rooted with Kingo app, but I was trying to install CWM, and I read in a random place that I need to chroot the install-recovery.sh. I think this messed with the phone.
Well, I recovered the device and rooted again, so thanks for helping

Where did you get the stock rom? And flash it with odin?
Download it on http://sammobile.com and flash it with Odin.
This is great platform to resolve all kinds of rooting issues....
Stock ROMs of almost all versions are available on xda itself and all over the internet......
