Hello I've install the ClockworkMod Touch Recovery 6.0.1.2 but he's different that the screenshots I've found on the web.
On mine I have this one :
reboot system nom
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe datafactory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
So I can't see how I could install a new Rom from a Zip file for exemple, what is the problem ?
thanks for your answers.
You have stock recovery, not custom. Either you didn't flash correctly or you have stock firmware which will restore stock recovery on each boot.
Go read the sticky threads as you are missing some basic knowledge.

Hello thanks for your answer. No I did the the flash correctly, but you're right I am on the stock firmware so it could be the reason !

Try flashing PhilZ Recovery for SGS3. It's available in .tar format and you can flash it using Odin and selecting the .tar file in the PDA column. It worked perfectly for me
Goodluck!!
PS: it also supports JB + KK roms

When flashing the Philz Recovery in Odin , untick the Auto Reboot option. After that take out the battery and start your phone in recovery mode.

Yes, as I said your firmware will replace the recovery each time you boot. Either replace your firmware with custom or live with stock recovery.

First, I would like to apologize for my bad English (If I have spoken something wrong / using wrong grammar)
And I would like to warn you that:
***This will increase the flash counter!
***You cannot boot into CWM by pressing the (vol up + power + home) buttons [I don't know why, don't ask me]
***I'm not responsible if you FAIL to ROOT / BRICK your device / CANNOT OPEN
CORRECTION: THIS IS JUST ANOTHER WAY TO ROOT S3 MINI, TAKE IT, OR IGNORE IT~~
Guys, I just bought an S3 mini and I found out that the root methods are so few...
For example: Flash pre-rooted ROM, seems is the best way and safest way to have a ROOT-ED system...
Anyway, I have figured an hour and I tried some "tricks" to ROOT the S3 MINI easily with the LATEST FRRMWARE!
I found out 1 thing is when you flash any S3 MINI firmware via ODIN, the firmware DOES NOT including the STOCK RECOVERY
Ok back to the topic, these are the ways that I figured out and used them to ROOT my S3 MINI with LATEST FIRMWARE! (Android 4.1.2 XXAMA2)
Just follow my instructions, I have tested them and they worked...
Step 1: Put the ROOT zip file into sdcard / external sdcard. ***Download the ROOT zip file from below attachment***
Step 2: Boot to DOWNLOAD MODE, flash CWM 6.0.2.8 via ODIN's PDA, UN-TICK "Auto Reboot"
***I have made an ODIN FLASHABLE CWM (6.0.2.8)***Download it from the attachment below***
Step 3: Download any / latest S3 MINI firmware from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I8190
Step 4: Boot into DOWNLOAD MODE again! Flash the firmware that you have downloaded... This time tick the "Auto Reboot"
Step 5: The device will auto reboot into CWM after you have flashed the firmware! When it boots into CWM, click "Install un-trusted zip" first, after that browse and flash the ROOT file via CWM!
REBOOT YOUR DEVICE, IF YOU FIND OUT THAT THE MENU & BACK KEYS CANNOT CLICK, JUST REBOOT YOUR DEVICE AGAIN!
CONGRATULATION! YOU HAVE ROOTED YOUR S3 MINI WITH LATEST FIRMWARE AND LATEST SuperSU!
If you failed to boot into CWM, just flash the firmware again and remember tick the "Auto Reboot"!
The phone will automatically boot into CWM again and all you need to do next is to flash the ROOT zip file!
You are welcome to share your ideas / experiences after using my way...
Post your questions if you have, I'll try to help you... If I may...
TRY MY WAY OUT! :victory::laugh::good:
... your new solution for root isn´t new .... and not recommend because of enrease the custom binary count .....

Have a read here.
Another trick for accessing recovery menu is via command prompt and android-sdk tools installed on PC.
Just navigate to Android folder with debugging mode turned on on phone and type: adb reboot recovery -> voila
Also let me mention that I managed to root and SIM unlock 8190N (NFC model) on latest 4.1.2 JB using your tutorial and Z3X box (USB + UART cable)
1) Flash the Le Fleur ROM via ODIN (this will enable the "three button recovery boot").
2) Flash whatever rooted ROM you want via ODIN (the "three button recovery boot" combo WILL STICK).
3) Install Triangle Away (Infected_ was one of the testers and it's been working for a couple days now).

Guys the issue i am always having is when i try to flash the file via Odin i cant cause ive got two yellow folders? ive zipped them but odin doesnt find them? what am i doing wrong pls?
Hey Guys
I came from Stock Rom, rooted my device and flash recovery. And when i come to install any custom rom my device get into a boot loop.
Fortunately I got a back up and every time a try a different custom rom and i can go back to stock.
Well i have tried with the following roms
CM10
AOKP
Slim Roms
Paranoid
Everytime i have tried any of these roms i do carefully everty step. Just exactly like the tutorial says. I've been done this before, installing custom rom in other device, like nexus s, gs3, gs2. Im familiar with those stuffs.
And i don´t think it has to do with some corrupted file when i download the base.
I have tried to reflash recovery and nothing.
Tried to change kernel, i changed to siyah and nothing. After i install custom rom , the device just show the logo of the rom and ask select language and bam!, there is the boop loop
I don´t know what else to do.
I have read something about clear nand with odin , but i dont see those options.
If anyone knows what to do, please let me know.
Thnks
Aditional Info:
Baseband: GT-I9300XXELLA
Kernel: Stock
Root with Odin3 v3.04 - CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0du-gti9300t.tar
International Version
4.1.2

That suggests a problem that is one of the following .
EXT SD card faulty
Custom rom download faulty
CWM recovery faulty.
user not following instructions .
Try flashing a Samsung Based custom rom .

What do you mean boot loop is it actually restarting after boot and restating again ??
Yes. Exactly that's what i mean. It restart over and over again.
External sd card > i dont have one
Recovery > i tried with cwm and philz
Downloaded rom > i have tried download from the xda developer site and tried with different files, different roms

With this I understand that it will alow me to flash a custom rom after that, is that right?
Another question, how can i go back like all factory settings, i mean clear everything. I format internal sd, factory reset, do the wipes, fix permissions and once again try to install a custom rom but phone doesn't boot after show logo. Actually i install the same rom in another i9300 and everything's go fine, so the file is ok.

If you don't have any important data, formats it into FAT32 by using computer or whatever.
If you can't afford to loose your data, try flash an exFAT supported kernel

That's right, probably it's exFAT formatted, try flashing Boeffla kernel, it supports exFAT and at the same time it's an amazing kernel.

The ext mem was not being recognised having installed latest omega, , so I followed your advice, flashed the boeffla-kernel-2.12.tar, using odin on my laptop, now, I turn the phone on, it only displays Samsung i9300, then nothing, I try to enter download mode or recovery pressing volume down, power and home, no responce.
Previously I had installed some rom management software on my i9300, I thought that might affect my ability to enter recovery.download mode.
Please advise.

Looking @ boeffla it says on the site:
Note: This kernel is only for Samsung based Jelly Bean (Android 4.1.x) roms!!! Do not install it on CM or AOSP based roms!!! And do not install on latest Samsung 4.2 leaks !!!
I am running 4.2.2, is it ok, to flash it?
Q: pressing power button holding, no option to boot into recovery, how can I change this?

Ow, that's the reason that explains all, don't use boeffla with 4.2.2, there are no kernels yet that I'm aware of for that firmware.
I don't recommend you 4.2.2 yet, not perfect yet.
For recovery, you have to press power+home+vol up, then release power button (not the others) once you see the first logo.
As said no kernels for 4.2.2 though the leaked rom is itself very stable for a beta rom .

Hello
I've accidentally flashed a wrong cwm-recovery (meant for some other phone)
After the installation I've rebooted into recovery and it booted the one I already had (that's when I understood it's the wrong one)
Then I've tried to reboot back to my rom but it got stuck on the rom's loading screen
Tried to flash a new rom after using gs2RomWipe
Tried to restore from a nandroid backup
all of them gave the same result.. stuck on the loading screen
Now to my question...
If I flash a stock Rom via Odin.. will it be enough? will I be able to reroot and use my phone normally again?
Or is there an easier way maybe?
i did the same today..
all the time bootloop..
flashing same rom that i was using did not helped..
flashing some other rom helped but cant call cause phone dont see simcard..
flashing some other roms like cyanogenmod also stuck my on bootloop..
I am pretty sure you have to flash via odin.
Update...
I've flashed a stock rom via Odin but it went into a bootloop
when I've entered recovery it said E:failed to mount efs (invalid argument)
so far I've found no way to make the phone work
please help

and it usually takes 1-2 mins max for me
also doesn't explain why stock from odin wont work
It seems to me that I need to somehow fix the efs folder but no idea how to do that
almost all the guides I've seen about that requires the rom to work and use root explorer
the others wasn't clear enough or just not related
according to the shell commands my efs folder is empty
copying the efs folder I have on my sdcard doesn't help because it's not there after reboot
I have a tar.gz as well but not sure how to use it
can I flash the .tar via odin? or some other solution with adb/shell?
or do you think it has nothing to do with my problem?
anyone have any idea how to help me???
I've tried many different ways but my device just wont make it past the loading screen of the rom (doesn't matter which one)
I really have no idea what can cause this problem
thought that flashing stock rom via Odin should fix it but it doesn't help
I've tried some methods I've seen to fix efs problems but so far nothing helped
I'm really desperate at the moment :\
download mode and flash the cwm kernel via Odin should work.

Did you get your device fixed?
OK.....just a quick thing......Odin flashing a normal single file stock firmware *may* not be the solution as it just overwrites what is already there during the flash. I will provide a link to a three part firmware that wipes the old as it flashes.....this essentially flashes the firmware onto 'pristine' memory partitions....it *might* help......
Here's the link.....

Search for @Hopper8s Odin troubleshooting guide for instructions on how to flash it.....
Good luck.....
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
Mine is an i9300 rooted and running 4.1.2
I have downloaded the carbon rom 4.4,2 meant for i9300 and also the gapps to the phone' sd card,
Can I upgrade the phone via mobile Odin pro only? I don't have access to a PC or a mac.
Or is it better to go via CMWM?
Don't want to mess up my only phone
You can flash Philz through Mobile Odin and then flash the ROM through Philz.
Mobile Odin wants to wipe data and cache

Mobile Odin wants to wipe data and cache, plus wipe dalvik cache to install philz touch recovery.
Is that ok to do so? I made nandroid backup thru cwm recovery.
No need to flash through mobile odin...
There are flashable zips available for Phil's... you can just flash those through your current recovery..
And I would suggest change your modem to any modem after mg4...
Installing an aosp ROM would not affect anything related to modem but if you do flash any Samsung rom then that would be necessary...

Was able to update to philz recovery and did a new nandroid backup

Thanks for the suggestion. Flashed philz through CWM recovery.
Now should I use Mobile Odin pro to install 4.2.2 carbon or just through philz itself?
Seems Odin pro gives me ability to inject super user on install. Philz doesn't give me any such option.
What would you recommend?

Actually I think Philz does allow you to flash root .I remember seeing the option in advanced or philz settings I think. You can then go on to download SuperSU from market and it will work fine

Is the carbon rom pre rooted? Else I would have to depend on Odin to prerogative it for me.

99% of custom roms are rooted you only have to root your device if you are on stock rom and not planning on flashing custom roms but want to install root apps
Thank you all
