Please let me know if I can flash a custom rom using Odin? I have a rooted S5. Flashed 2 roms and now stuck on rebooting. Cant access Philz Recovery only Odin. I'm trying to flash Alliance Rom. I was curious to try v5. Checked it out and wasn't satisfied so I want to go back to v1 if possible. Thanks in advance.

So real quick....
I rooted my phone with ODIN last night, so I'm still running AT&T Rom and Stock 3e. I am trying to get JB installed but don't know where to go from here. I need to get Clockwork Recovery right? If so, how can I get that on my phone? I did read I should not used ROM MANAGER!
Sorry for the stupidity! I got JB on my last Galaxy before it broke I'm just confused because I did it a different was last time. Thanks for the help!
just flash a custom kernel with ODIN. That'll give you CWM recovery. then you can flash whatever you want.

Ok, is Odin 1.85 sufficient (or is there a newer one) and then can I just flash it with Siyah 4.1.4?
IDK much about Odin. But if it worked for ya the first time it should be good.
for the kernel, you must find one in a format Odin uses and not in the normal .zip which requires CWM recovery to flash.
Right now .tar is the only one that comes to mind for Odin.

I would flash a kernel that is compatible with whatever ROM you have currently. Then flash a JB ROM from CWM . Flash Siyah after you have JB if that is the kernel you want. I think you would get boot looped if kernel and ROM are mismatched.

Okay cool. I know this might be asking a lot but can you just link to me a Kernel that will work with the ROM I have? It's still the AT&T Stock Rom 2.3.4 with Baseband I777UCKH7 and Kernel 2.6.35.7.

Take a look at the guide which is the top link in my signature. It will give you a little more detail on what you want to do, and has links to the available Gingerbread kernels.

the only point in flashing a kernel compatible with a ROM, would be if you wanted to boot into the ROM.
Yes, flashing a kernel meant for a different version will most likely bootloop.
You can flash any kernel you want if you have no intentions on booting the system.
Recovery inside the kernel has nothing to do with what ROM your running. Will always be able to boot into recovery. Or **** broke
I give you lots of credit for reading not to use rom manager!

If you use Mobile Odin you can flash a custom kernel that will install CWM and then flash a custom ROM with CWM. I do this so I do not mess with the flash counter.

It sounds like you're taking the same route I did to root my phone. I first flashed a rooted, stock ICS ROM, then I flashed the Siyah kernel using Mobile Odin, then I eventually went on to flash a JB ROM (SuperNexus) using Mobile Odin. I'm sure I could have skipped that step of flashing Siyah because SuperNexus flashes a CM kernel anyway, but I kinda didn't know what I was doing.
Hey all.
After reading about the brickbug and failing the eMMC test, im a little confused as to the safest way to root and install a custom rom.
I am currently runnning ICS 4.0.3 with I9100TDULPB kernel on an aussie vodafone branded device.
Do i simply use odin to flash a stock samsung JB ROM, then flash Philz or Siyah JB kernel for root+cwm, then custom rom install via cwm?
I would also like to retain the option of flashing my carrier stock image incase of warranty purposes.
Cheers

Exactly !
PD: Remember to follow the installation instructions on the rom thread, otherwise u'll end in nasty bootloops
Thanks for the quick reply
So this will ultimately allow me to odin flash back to the stock ICS Vodafone Branded ROM later down the track?
Cheers.

Hi,
This international S2 came out of the box running a stock ICS 4.0.3 and appears to have root access, also has "SuperSU", however it has the stock recovery mode.
I'm interested in replacing the stock recovery mode with CWM so that I can install custom ROMs but my device is already rooted and I'm quite confused about this, should I just go ahead and flash a CWM kernel?
And also,
Do I have to match the kernel to the ROM that I'm going to flash (AOSP, AOKP, XXLSJ)?
Thanks.
Just flash Siyah, Dorimanx,... with Odin.
And yes some Roms doen't work with some Kernel. For example I had problems with Siyah and CM10.1

just flash the Siyah kernel v4.1.5 or v5.0.1(tar file for ODIN) using 'ODIN' on ur PC to get proper wrk'ng CWM app installed on ur phone
Then use Siyah's recovery to flash any custom rom of ur choice
I used this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37149820 to root, but now I need CWM, I have stock recovery. So if someone could point me to CWM to flash over this or with this, I can't find it.
Thanks.

You had no need to follow that guide, its bollocks and is only needed if you want to use stock recovery.
Instead just simply flash Siyah kernel v6 beta4 via ODIN and then that will give you root, cwm, super user and good stable kernel.
Flash siyah you will get amazing features like dual Booting, overclocking and advanced cwm

Or if you want original version then

Can I flash Siyah over this root that I have already? And must I use Odin or can I use stock recovery to flash (ZIP (For CWM-based Recovery))?

I have exactly the same problem.
First I tried flashing Philz kernel. But after flashing I was stuck in the boot screen. So I tried flashing Siyah (stable, not beta), but after the blinking Siyah logo at startup the phone just turned off. Only way out, wiping data/factory reset.
So I went back to 4.0.3 and then reflashed stock 4.1.2 and rooted with the method posted by the OP.
I would really prefer to flash Siyah. But I don't want to wipe... Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Well, I could flash Siyah beta4. I guess there was some problem with the stable version...

^^^ Ignore that. Rom manager is not properley compatible with I9100 and using it to flash kernels with result in unbootable system and having to manually flash kernel again via ODIN.
Just flash Siyah v6 beta 4 via ODIN.
Hi guys, where could i find a official stock ROM 4.1.2 to flash via CWM or Philz. just a stock rom. (ive read some thread, but they are flashing thru ODIN) im planning back to put my phone in its original state. thanks.

Well if you want to flash a official stock rom then you can only find them on sammobile.com and only way to flash it from odin. After that you can use Philz to install CWM if you want.
Hope it helps

There are also some that you can flash via CWM. If you are rooted.
