Hi,
I have rooted my alpha with cf-auto-root, installed TWRP recovery and disabled knox.
Now, any rom I'm trying to install from a zip file bricks my phone (and I can restore from a backup or can flash the stock rom with odin)
Why can't I install a zip?
Thanks!

What version of twrp you have and for what version of the alpha is the rom that you are flashing?

Both are lollipop. Both soft-bricked my phone.

A. androidfilehost is down. Anywhere else I can get it?
B. Why isn't it available from the TWRP manager app?
C. Noob question: Why does it even matter what recovery I'm using?

how to install a rom without a cwm bootloop?
Make sure you're on latest twrp or cwm or don't flash aokp rom's. That should generally be it

Theres a repacked cwm touch in drv section that also has the fix.
sent from my i9250
The best is to flash recovery with fastboot to avoid the risk.
And I have aokp and no bootloop....
Would just like to confirm before i proceed as i do not want to brick my phone.
Since I'm running i9300 stock android 4.1.2, is it safe to root using the method found here?
Since recovery won't be installed, i am unable to find an odin flashable cwm 6.0.4.x which is required for kitkat roms.
There is twrp 2.6.3.0 here, but i'm unfamiliar with it and the version needed to flash kitkat roms.
Any help would be appreciated as search/stickies did not help.

thank you for the reply
tbh i prefer twrp but will use cwm if twrp does not support kitkat flashing.
have tried philz but did not like it...would use it only if cwm and twrp aren't available.

search in the twrp thread with the keyword "cm11" and you'll find the answer:
in short you do not need the version in the op but from the main website and in the thread is a link to it. but better look yourself
if you are unsure ask in the thread, which roms are flashable through twrp and which one causes problems

For anyone interested:
Yes you can use cf auto root in the op link to root jb 4.1.2
For Recovery:
CWM: You have to flash via odin cwm 6.0.3.2 then install the 6.0.4.4 zip via recovery
TWRP: odin flashable twrp 2.6.3.1(required for kitkat) is available on the twrp website.
Philz: odin flashable zip can be found in this thread. Not sure about kitkat compatibility tho.

i use SRSroot to root my devices, this app success to root my chinnese devices... you can find in google. i just recommend you to use that's app.
I keep getting this error which says, "boot certification vertify". when I try to go into recovery mode. To begin with, I have updated my vs985 to 5.01 lollipop and then I had my device rooted. From this I have tried using apps like Flashify or using adb to flash TWRP 2.8.6.1 touch recovery for vs985. When I flash it I then boot into recovery to see that boot certification error. Can someone please help me fix this? If you need any more info just ask.

You need to upgrade with jasmine or skydragon stock roms from a kk build, if you want to keep twrp and root. You have some partitions that need to be replaced, that's why you get the error.

So I would just flash the Jasmine rom then I could reroot my device and flash twrp or do I have to root and flash twrp, install partitions and then upgrade with Jasmine rom?

Did you flash to a KK 12b version method?
Using the image that Sublime posted resulted in the same issue.
I upgrade my phone to 12B then I rooted and flashed the newest version of twrp which happens to be then 2.6.8.1 version I think. Then I flashed the Jasmine rom....

Use the latest version that TWRP Manager offers, then use TWRP to flash the latest one on XDA made for the G3.

It will always say seandroid is not enforcing at the top but will work... It's just alerting you to the fact that the kernel has been changed...
This is how I got root on mine and it works but say bye bye to your KNOX....

I have tried numerous ROMS, but the only one, that worked was a prerooted original Samsung 4.1.2 ROM, that was fully loaded by Odin.
All other ROMS are stuck in the boot process.
I have done:
Install root - CWM or similar
Wiped
Install ROM
Any suggestions for a Kit-Kat ROM, that is debloated and working?

Go to this link and download stock 4.4 and flash it with odin. Then reflash twrp and then try the custom roms. I think that you still have JB bootloader. Need to upgrade to KK to get the bootloader.

It reports not being able to "Update", so I guess it is an update - not an complete installation??

Doesn't matter I don't think. You have to flash that firmware with Odin and the device in download mode. Once it's finished you'll have stock 4.4 and the KK bootloader. Then reflash cwm with Odin, then use cwm to install the custom ROMs.
