Hello am new new to S5 rooted was wondering if this is the right one.. Was trying to flash Vision X Lollipop rom ROM but when try to do wipes(Cache, delvic, system and internal) TWRP informs me that wipe failed. Am I using the wrong one?

Have just now tried 2.7.0 with same result when trying to do wipe for rom install. Ends with failed Prompt.. Am I using the right one

Woke up early tried TWRP 2.8.5.0 Still with same result wipe failed.. Anyone out there point me to the right recovery for T-Mobile S5

Don't think you can recover data. Flash stock via Odin

LOL!!!
First of all, Are you able to boot into recovery mode?
If so you can use it! Even flash CWM! And boot Android as always (probabliy you'll lose your apps and data but can revive your device without using Odin)

It will be usefull!
You can make wipe factory reset with the default recovery, but I advice you flash Acegingeroot.zip and CWM 5.0.26.FIX, if you use the stock recovery you'll lose all your apps and data but if you use CWM you can make a nandroid!! ie you could backup all your ROM (apps and data incluided)!!
Which android version are you using? I guess your device is a S5830, right?

What a strange thing... I've S5830 and I've never had to mount nothing when I've done a backup :S. Maybe because you are't root yet?¿ I don't know, but you can try to ask in the S5830I thread or to mount manually data partition
Go to mounts and storage, mount data partition and then try again
If it doesn't work or you don't want to try it, I should't advice you, so I'm sorry go to the correct thread and ask for it

I think is a root trouble, try flashing the correct root file if you doesn't have root permission you can't mount partitions, anyway if it doesn't work I can't continue helping you, ask for your problem in the correct thread (S5830I)

Thank You @Lady Android
And now, if you're getting problem in mounting /data
You will have to flash stock ROM through Odin

[Q] Cannot get past CMW-Based Recovery screen

Hi All,
I rooted phone and all went well. Downloaded CWM then the BeanStalk ROM with Android 4.4.2. Tried to install zip file it through CWM and when i looked at phone it had restarted. Loads the screen with the title CWM-based Recovery v6.0.2.7 and lists 10 options.
Tried to reboot/factory install etc but always end up back at this screen??
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, (I'm a n00b to rooting etc)
Update: The error i get when i try and install beanstalk:
no file_contexts.......
(Status 7)
Just tried to install Omni and got the same error?
Maybe you need CWM Touch 6.0.3.2+ or latest TWRP recovery (if you have a metadata error when flashing, you're using the wrong recovery!)
Cause your CWM-based Recovery is v6.0.2.7. Android 4.4+ need latest recovery. Such as v6.0.3.2+.
How would I go about getting the latest recovery on there? Odin?
Sorry i am a bit of a noob!

Thanks - but that link is a bit technical for me - it doesnt have any installation instructions?
Just want to make sure i don't brick the phone.
Is there a way I can unroot it then start over again? Would that be a possible solution?
Still stuck on this.... Anyone have any ideas?

I've done that. It's not there!
This is the rom I'm running. It's a galaxy s5 based rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-galaxy-s5-mini-12-edition-buy-s5-t2669724
The annoying thing is I've got 2 phones running the exact same rom etc and I can make nandroid backups on mine but not on my wife's
i'm sure that in CWM there must be "fix permissions"...it's impossible there isn't!
Have you got any trouble with your wife's S3 or that rom works fine?

Cheers for your reply
Just re checked Philz touch and can confirm 100% fixed permissions is not there, anywhere
When I install this rom it installs using aroma. I'm just wondering if that's causing the problem as previous roms I flashed were solely installed by Philz Touch
Rom seems more or less the same. I flashed both phones in the exact same way so don't understand how one can't backup. I need to backup incase anything goes wrong.
To be honest I want a TW rom that works 100% all the time! I just really like the look of the S5 rom. Most of these S5 roms after a week or two start slowing down and become unusable
it's very strange...i dont' really understand
Have you ever tried Imperium KitKat? I've it from 2 weeks and works fine: pretty fast, stable and good battery life with boeffla kernel.

Yeah I saw that. Might try it. Will see how I get on with this first. So no ideas how to fix this? I always run a 'mega wipe' zip before every flash of a rom. Can I do anything else to completely remove everything so the problem with backup is gone?
You can try doing deep clean to fix your problem and remove everything from your wife's S3.
I always do full wipe and format partitions system and preload before flashing new rom.

stuck in bootloop

I wanted to update the OS of my i5500. I first tried the method here but the phone got stuck in bootloop. Then, I attempted to install the version here. Still bootloop. Can you guys help me? I can't use my phone anymore.
Flash the recovery (CWM) again and format /system , /data and /cache . Then flash the packages mentioned in the second link (which is better than the first, if you ask me).

I did not understand how to use recovery-clockworkmod-6.0.5.2 so I tried installing with ClockworkMod-Galaxy5-v0.7 . Most likely that is why it failed.
What am I supposed to do with recovery-clockworkmod-6.0.5.2 file? It's not in .tar format so Odin does not accept it. The page is not in English and I did not understand.

It's flashable. Flash it in recovery. Then reboot into recovery (so that the new recovery gets loaded).
Also, you have to flash it in order to able to use the ROM.

You have an old CWM. Using that old CWM install the flashable zip of the new CWM then reboot. Simple

Thanks. When you put it that way I understood clearly.
I installed CM11 and this time instead of the word Android the Cyanogenmod logo appeared and for a second I thought it really worked. Then, the scumbag phone decided to go into a bootloop.

Installed wrong TWRP

Hey guys, i have an strage problem. So, for mistake i've flashed wrong TWRP file in odin. That TWRP was for Samsung Galaxy Ace 3. After that all, I went to the recovery mode and I was getting an "no command" error. Then when I wanted to flash the proper file, I was always getting stuck when the NAND Write Start shows up. Is there any way to solve that problem?
EDIT: I know about vol up method, but i just want to install TWRP soft, ADB isn't working for me)
Flash stock recovery then try flashing the right version again, see if that does the trick.
