Hello everyone. I recently got my Samsung galaxy s4 mini I9190. Which have 4.2.2 jelly bean. After searching I found that I can upgrade to kitkat using other region stockrom using odin. So is it safe? If I want to downgrade to my original jelly beans stock rom, will there be any problems like no wifi or corrupted imei?
And I also came across this twrp and custom roms. In case if I install twrp and custom lollipop rom. Will I be able to go back to jelly beans if I have back using twrp backup. Or using odin with no twrp back.up. and how will I get my original stock Recovery menu. I mean like it was before twrp.
I know I asked alot but please help.
And I searched alot regarding these questions but couldn't found any.
If there are any necessary steps regarding downgrading or using custom roms first time. Please tell me.
Thanka for listening.

Hey everyone, as of right now, is there no way to get the CWM recovery on an S4 (AT&T) that has been updated to 4.3?
What would the process be, if possible of flashing back to a 4.2.2 rom.
I'm looking to install Cyanogenmod, but can't seem to do so, mainly because I can't get into CWM, and I have a feeling its because I'm on 4.3...
Thanks in advance.
Hello gentlemen, I have Galaxy S3 and I have there stock rom from samsung android version 4.3 (specifically i9300XXUGNA8) and I would like to try a MIUI rom. However I find guide only with downgrade on stock rom version I9300XXDLJ4 which is android 4.1.1. But I know that it used old EFS file version 1 and in my rom is EFS v2. So if I downgrade it, the telephone was not work - especially signal from operator. Does anyone have any advice or some guidance on how the stock Samsung rom to MIUI. Thanks for the advice. (and sorry for my english)

I've used the MIUI rom for s3, and trust me, it's really good. The only downside is that you have to downgrade to android version 4.2.2 which is CM based. The latest version is based on 4.2.2, not 4.1.1
You have to do this:
1) Root your s3 following a proper guide. There are plenty on the net. Just google it.
2) Install a custom recovery. I recommend TWRP or Philz Touch recovery.
3) Download the MIUI rom from their official website en.miui.com
4) Flash the rom using the recovery.
Done. Hope this helped
Hey everyone, this is my first thread on this huge community. Can someone suggest me a custom ROM that can be flashed using ODIN or Mobile ODIN or via CWM 4.0.x.x? I've tried twice to install the 6.0.x.x version, but in both cases I soft bricked my device
I am searching for a Stable ROM, possibly kit kat or higher (but an improved version of Jelly Bean would be OK).
I would really like a Lollypop Custom ROM, but, as I sad before, I failed twice. Thanks for your help!

Hello,
You should update your recovery to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
You cannot flash a kitkat or a lollipop ROM with a CWM 4.0.X.X recovery as it is very old.
Once you've installed the above mentioned latest Apolo kernel, you can go ahead and flash any other ROM normally as you would do with any other recovery.
Regards
I'm looking for a rooted stock rom I can flash using Mobile Odin. Any help or direction will be helpful thanks:good:
At (galaxy note 3 root dot com, sorry I cant post links until 10 post made) they have the stock firmware. I flashed that (4.3) and was back to stock. It prompted me to upgrade to 5.0 (after two 4.4 upgrades) and than I rooted. You can go that route. I have a nandriod of rooted 5.0. Best bet is to flash stock firmware from link (via odin), factory upgrade to where you want and root.
Or my advice is forget about 5.0 as it sucks and flash an aosp based rom like cm12.1 or aicp 10 (both running 5.1.1) and....blast off! I never thought I could upgrade my phone and speed it up at the same time.
I just found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/development/rom-t3132662 rooted stock 5.0
Hi Everyone,
So here is the issue. I figured out how to root S2 SGH-i777 AT&T phone and that was a easy process. What I'm running into is something a little harder to resolve. I know how to do the proper steps of installing custom recovery . I can't seem to find the latest recovery for S2 SGH-777 AT&T phone. Do any of you know where to find it ? Why does the rom keep getting a borted when try to flash with my current recovery ? I'm trying to install Cyanidel Rom for AT&T SGH-i777 5.0.2 not 5.1
