Just got TWRP on my s3 and because of its ease of use I'm thinking about putting it on my friends i9000. She can sort of get around the Cwm I have on it now but I figure it would be much easier with TWRP.
Can it be installed/used with no issues on this device?
I would use goo manager to install.
The i9000 is on cm7

You need a kernel that supports it. If you upgrade to CM9 or 10, you can flas Devil kernel and activate TWRP.
You need a specific kernel to flash a recovery? I put TWRP recovery on my s3 without touching the kernel. Strange

Oh, I looked around and it seems that I'm wrong. You should be able to just install it like you wrote to do.
Were you able to put TWRP onto the i9000, if so how?
I have CM9.1 on mine and would really like to replace recovery with TWRP
I haven't had the i9000 with me this week. Download goo manager from the play store and try to install it through thay

Yes, I suggest you find a guide that one of your modorators has put their time into to help people like you. Please next time look a little harder and read.

Of course. Rooting is the first step to make any modifications to your phone. What stock version are you currently on?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
I can't say you need to be rooted, but it is needed for certain backup utilities like Titanium Backup. Otherwise, all you need is CWM

I suppose I misspoke. Root is not required, but is greatly helpful, and I'd suggest obtaining it first.
Sent from my glitched ICS Captivate using XDA App
I would say , root is highly recommended. But I think I seen a tutorial somewhere about flashing clockworkmod recovery on a stock unrooted captivate, or flashing a modded 3e Recovery to flash unsigned zip packages. I will try to find the link for you. But to backup all your apps and data, you will need root.

There are methods to root gingerbread, but they tend to be more involved then earlier versions of android. I correct my earlier statement that root is necessary. I'd highly suggest it if you want to back up apps etc, but it isn't required. I'd suggest downgrading to 2.1 or 2.2 and use the superoneclick utility. Supposedly this tool works on gingerbread but I haven't had any luck with it.

The easiest way is probably to flash Corn kernel, because you get the option to root in CWM. And you will have corn kernel, so it will also be easy to flash from there
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
If you want to flash a custom roms, flash back to stock, then flash a custom kernel via Odin, reboot to system, put the rom on root of sd card, reboot to cwm, do a nandroid backup, wipe data/factory reset, then flash zip from sd card. That's the basic of flashing. Search around in the captivate section and you will find your answers. There are so many topics about flashing roms. Most of the time the rom dev, posts detailed instructions on flashing his/hers rom from start to finish.
Almost every custom rom comes pre-rooted. No need to root once you flash the custom rom.
Also, if you want to save your contacts, you should do so before you flash back to stock, or before you flash the custom rom. If you want to backup all of your apps, then you will need to be rooted, and have titanium backup installed from the market.

I dont think you can do it with stock rom.
Try zeus rom.
You can also use an app to do it.
It is called rebooter.

If he's on stock he probably doesn't have recovery or root access
He's rooted but i don't think he has recovery?

So IF he boot recovery it will just factory reset.

If you are rooted and have no recovery just get Rom manager from play store and install recovery from it, the app also has a reboot in recovery option

This is the easiest way.
Procedure for our newbie friend.
1. Download rom manager from play store.
2. Open the apps then click flash ClockworkMod Recovery (need internet connection to flash)
3. After flashing click Reboot into recovery
I suggest that use the old clockworkmod(Version 5.0.2.6) because base from my experienced i always have a hard time rebooting using the touch version. It's like there is a time out, i ended always into bootloop and it takes an hour to reboot.
Hi so i am thinking of upgrading to twrp but is it good and most of all it is safe to flash it as i am used to clockworkmod revovery as i used it since i first rooted my phone so i need help should i glash twrp or not?
Sent from my GT-I9305T using xda app-developers app
They are both good in my opinion, but there is one thing to consider. If you should have a bad flash of somekind that would lead to a non-functional touch screen twrp won't work because of the lack of hardware button compability.
Besides that twrp is very smooth as you can set backup names on the fly.
PhilZ is superior to both of them

So, i get galaxy note n7000. It was running 4.0.4 stock. I flashed kernel with odin with root + cwm. Then i wiped data, tried to install rom (it was miui 3.9.6 from here) progress stucked on /formatting system. Then screen went black and phone won't turn on after that. I founded one user from russian forum who had same issue, idk how he fixed it..
So, phone won't turn on , go to recovery, pc can't see it. hardly bricked? By cwm flash..?
Phone has got warranty. Maybe i should bring it to them? Could they know that phone was rooted?
Seems i have the same problem like here...

cwm 5. I heard about cwm zip, but no. I got cwm by installing custom kernel in odin. Or you're talking about something else?
And yes, i'm soon going to the carrier where this phone was bought. Which is the best version to tell? OTA update?
Yeah, just say it failed doing ota update.

Just to be clear, this is the forum for the S4 Active which is a different phone than the regular S4. That said, it really depends on which version of the S4 Active you have:
If you have the AT&T version (i537), then you can root, but you cannot install custom recovery due to a locked bootloader (stupid AT&T). You can still install custom ROMs using SafeStrap, but you are limited to TouchWiz based ROMs.
If you have the International version (i9295), then you can root and install custom recovery (the bootloader is unlocked), so you can pretty much install whatever you want.
I hope this helps, check out the Development section of this forum for more information.
