Hello.
Ive been trying to root for hours and tried different methods, but no goodies. This phone was originally with 2.2 froyo. I tried 1 click roots, but unable to install CWM. I used Odin (one click download one) to downgrade to 2.1 and still I can't get CWM to work after root.
I just want a stable root method so I cant just install any recovery that lets me backup+flash roms =]
Any help will be apreciated!
What method are you using to get CWM?

Well, I rooted with super 1 click and tried to apply the update.zip (CWM) and still got an error.
Thanks for replying.
EDIT** I also tried this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734163, but the link provided is dead.
Download ROM Manager from the market and use that to install CWM. I've had good luck that way.

I tried that too. When I flash CWM with rom manager and reboot to stock recovery, I choose "reinstall packages", I get an error.
What's the error?

I don't have the phone with me right now, but I'm pretty sure if was something about the SDcard. That it couldn't find something. Do I have to add an update.zip to the sdcard before flashing CWM with rom manager?
You don't, ROM manager puts it on there for you. It's the same process as doing it yourself, just automated. Let us know what the error was when you get back to your phone and we'll go from there.
Does anyone read any more?
2.2 has recovery 3e. you cant just install cwm from rom manager....
if you would GOOGLE the actual error message, you would see what the problem is, and that there is a sticky that covers the issue....
And if you read the whole post, you would have read that he downgraded to 2.1.
ROM manager is poop for our phone.
Just Odin flash a kernel with cwm baked into it if you're gonna be flashing a ROM...

I agree that it causes more problems than it fixes for ROM installation, but it does work reliably for getting CWM working.

any version that is not a one click. you manually put the kernel .tar into the pda slot.
btw what card is your avatar from? that picture looks so damn familiar, but i haven't played magic in forever.

There are so many versions of Odin, can you link me the one you use? I just want to be sure is a version I can thrust.
The avatar is from Diabolic Tutor (Greg Staples art). I'm a little lost in MTG too hehe. I'm a retired FNM player xD
there you go, i have attached one.
most things go in the pda slot. and unless you have a .pit in place make sure repartition remains unchecked.
RIGHT diabolic tutor!!

You need to Wipe before Flashing via ClockworkMod Recovery..
Currently Testing the zImage Flash atm, so I'll likely have an update shortly that lets you flash the zImage as well.

So (just to be clear) Do I download this, rename it to update.zip, then "reinstall" in recovery?
Or do i have to install rom manager, and flash from its boot screen

Don't Rename, well you can... But never rename to update.zip as this is how Clockwork is Used.. You select from install from .zip & select the name...
You and do either
adb reboot recovery from cmd prompt once you Have the update.zip downloaded from Rom Manager
or
You can Flash from Rom Manager.
Hey,
Great work here.
but, one question. I was told by koush during our talks about getting the bricks un-bricked that the only way to flash the baseband/radio was through odin.
does this flash the radio/baseband?
Thanks. Just want to clarify.

How to Install CWM Recovery in Galaxy Mini S5570 Smartphone?
So, let's begin. Follow instructions below to install latest cwm recovery in your galaxy mini handset.
Make sure you have got Gingerbread OS on your galaxy mini : Upgrade to GB if you don't have.
Download Odin Multidownloader v4.38 for GTS5570, Tass_v1.ops and latest Clockwork Mod Recovery if you do not have them already. You can download them from here.
Run Odin Multi downloader v4.38 and select the Tass_v1.ops by clicking OPS button.
Select One Package Option and Click One Package button and select the recovery file name (CWM-5.0.2.8-Touch2-yagya.tar.md5) file you downloaded.
Leave other settings to default (i.e. don’t change any other options/settings)
When you are done reboot your phone in download mode (Press Volume Down + Home + Power button to go to download mode)
Connect your phone in download mode to your computer via USB Cable.
When Odin detects your phone (If you see a com port number written in yellow background at the top left, then your phone is detected. View image.), click Start button.
Wait till Odin finishes the job (approx. 3-5 minutes) and when it reports ‘PASS’, you can disconnect your phone.
That's all. You have flashed latest CWM recovery on your device.

I know it's easy flashing an update directly via CWM recovery. I just posted these since many people asked me to do so.

Yea, guyzz. I got you all... I know we can flash CWM updates via recovery but,
let me be clear Some guyz out there still would like to give this a try. So, can we just stay out of this. Those who need will use and those who don't will not.
Why should you or me get a headache for such a small reason?

Because you are using stock rom. You need custom roms like CM7 for this to work properly. You can get one at http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com and then try again. It will work nicely.
I got an error:
"cannot open the usb serial port. code: 2"
what should I do? Disconnect the phone or wait?
Thank you all.
You will need to close Samsung Kies if you have it installed otherwise install USB drivers from Samsung and try again.
Thanks for your help yagya.
I have rebooted the PC, reconnected the phone and everything worked out perfectly. Now I have CWM installed and running .
Just one question, if I reflash stock ROM on the device trough Kies, will it get rid of CWM or will I still have it?
hi
i did root my samsung mini and did install "rom manager"successfully.
when i want to make a backup of the orriginal rom it says i have to install "flash clockwordmod" thru rom manager first.
the problem in here is.
in the givin list with phones my samsung isn't listed, is there any other option i want use to get this work.
(i want to install i cm rom)
cheers
Don't use it. Many users have bricked their devices using it. Although, I've used it with no problems.

ROM manager is killing our mini's depending on its mood, don't use it. Flash either CWM4.0.0.5 using Odin (harder way) or just flash CWM5 touch recovery by Squadzone in stock recovery (easy way). The last easy solution has the least chance to something go wrong

mmm, this looks like an update, guess i need the correct installable version first.
got a new problem going on.
i did an "update.zip" file put on the sd-card, after realizing it was not a correct file and did delete the zip file.
Now after reboot into (orriginal recovery mode) the "update.zip" is still an option to use while the cwm-update.zip (wich is actually on the sd-card) is not mentioned.
When trying to use the listed update file i get an error saying "file can't be found on the sd-card"
what to do?

Hey fellas,
So here's what I was trying to do...I was simply trying to revert back to a previous ROM that I had made a back up of. As I tried to load up the back up I got an error. Tried another back up...same thing. Tried to simply reboot my phone, stuck at the Samsung logo. I can get into recovery and I tried to use the USB mount to see if I could put a freshly downloaded ROM to try onto the phone, no dice (computer never saw the phone, best I can tell).
Am I screwed, or is this a simple matter of putting a ROM on through Odin to get me back on track? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
what error? what rom where you on and we're you trying to do a nandroid restore?
odin is safe and can be done to revert to stock rom easily as a last resort but for now explain with details

yes all in there. nothing very hard to too. download the rom. open odin, and select the rom in pda tab. put phone in download mode and connect to PC. Flash it. If you choose ics, do not wipe till you install a safe kernel.
you can install philz kernel as per the rom you installed and then wipe.

I just installed official 4.1.2 stock rom and it says N7000WELSA rom.
I want to root this. I used "PhilZ-cwm6-UBLSF-UBB-4.87.6" kernel to root that. But after i flashed that nothing happened. Can you guys give me a light on the topic? I'm really new to that stuff and can't see my way out here... Thank you !

Well i downloaded the file "N7000UBLSF_N7000UUBLSF_N7000WELSA_HOME.tar" from Hotfile. And put it in PDA in Odin3 v1.85 and flashed it. I'm writing down every detail because i may have done something wrong.
Then i downloaded "PhilZ-cwm6-UBLSF-UBB-4.87.6.tar" and flashed it the same way.

I used the above tutorials to do so.
If you have used odin to install philz kernel, it will not root. You need to flash the zip version. Or use the supersu.zip file from the following post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
You should now have Cwm recovery. So either flash a zip version of philz kernel or supersu
To get into recovery, use Vol up + power + home

As you are using LSA rom, shouldn't you be using the LSA Philz kernel? For the next time, just flash the zip version in stock recovery and you will get all at once. Root + CWM recovery + Safe kernel.
I don't think it's the rom he's mentioning. It s the baseband for new lsz of a different region.
Do i have to have an External SD Card to use this method ?
now no as you should already have cwm since you pushed philz tar

My last question; Is there a way to format the phone to a state that is just just unboxed? Empty sd card. No programs. Everything clear. My battery is running out real quick and the phone started to slow down a bit. It kinda laggs... And when i flashed the rom it just upgraded the OS. Everything is still the same. Widgets , apps... they are all staying.
??? i dont fully understand. you want to revert to ICS?
No no. I wanna keep JB. But this flashing just upgraded the OS. No files were deleted or so. I just wanna completely format everything on the phone.
yes cuz its a non wipe rom.. boot into philz recovery and wipe data
Thanks again. It did work out. Well i tried to format usb storage using settings>storage> Format USB Storage. But nothing happens and it doesn't format it. Is there any other way ?
Yah. Connect to pc and delete.
Is it safe to select all and delete via computer ?
yes
