I have the samsung galaxy s 7582
just wanted a new firmware but wasnt able to do the firmware update online.
the phone is rooted
I AM A NEWBEE BUT HAVE BEEN A COMPLETE FOOL TO TRY THIS!
i tried to flash a compatible custom kitkat rom but failed completely
i first intalled the CWM through odin and then tried to install the zip file i downloaded.
i donot have any backup except the efs (i read it somewhere it must be backed up to prevent loss of imei)
i have formatted the system partition, DONOT HAVE ANY BACKUP and the phone never boots.
PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!

Hey there, I'm trying to root my S3 and a first step I wanted to make a nandroid backup, so i downloaded Odin and I used it to install recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.1.0-i9300 onto my device, i rebooted into the recovery screen and I found myself in the stock recovery menu.
So i tried it once more, to no change in my situation, so I looked through the forums for a while and I found a thread by mskip about installing CWM and thankfully it had this
Stock Recovery being reflashed after a reboot?
There is an auto recovery restore system on stock roms that will reflash the Stock Recovery on a Stock Rom. If the restore files are renamed then CWM Recovery should not be overwritten after a reboot.
You need to be rooted and then delete or rename the following files:
Quote:
/system/recovery-from-boot.p
/system/etc/install-recovery.sh
You can then flash recovery without it being overwritten.
You can also do all this through the S3 ToolKit

My problem being that I can't rename said files bacause my phone isn't rooted and the S3 toolkit requires rooting to do backups and such, and I can't root it because (unless I misunderstood) I need CWM installed.
So my question is : What can I do now? Can I root my phone in any other way ? Is there a way to get past this Stock recovery screen onto CWM?
Already thanks for reading and sorry for it being this long
Also I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 I have Android 4.1.1 And I run Windows 7 on my PC
Ok, so I looked around a bit and I just rooted it without a backup, it seemed safe enough.
Root went well, I backed up right after just in case.
Use cf root and flash via Odin that will give you root and flash cwm. Then you can continue with your nandroid backup. All though you can do the full root procedure using that toolkit, its one of the options. Hope I could help

Hey everyone,
i've got an i9300 device with 4.1.1 (XXDLIH) on it
I wanted to installed a custom rom on it (Omega ROM v38)
First i flashed CWM via Odin like in the instructions, after that i downloaded the rom put it in the sd card and booted the phone into CWM, i did the wipe and factory reset and choosed the rom zip for installing
After about 10 minutes the phone rebooted, but it is still on stock rom, so i thought what could the problem be and remembered that i need to root the phone first.
Now i have the problem that i can't (don't know), i don't know which way i should use for rooting so that i can afterwards install the Omega Custom rom ....
Note that i have now the CWM 5.5 recovery and don't know how to get back to stock recovery ...
Please if someone could tell me exactly what should i do, how exactly to root it and install the rom :/
Thanks everyone in advance
If you think that it would be better to install another custom rom then feel free to tell me

To get the phone working, you can flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com with Odin. Doing this may cause you to lose all of your data.

From the 3.1.0 version of TWRP I have accidentally deleted everything, including my phone's OS. Thus when I reboot from twrp, it says no OS installed. I have downloaded several stock roms for my phone (Samsung Galaxy Grand Max SMG-720N0) When I install them with twrp, I always get invalid zip file. I do not have a backup on my sd card, so if anyone has a backup, or has the same phone, I am sincerely and desperately asking your aid to upload a restore version of a freshly formatted rom. I am stumped as to what else I can do.
Try looking up rom for your device at SamMobile & use odin to reload your OS
