I installed Deodexed Stock XXJVT stock rom from here, and everything went well. Than I wanted to root it. I did that with this kernel CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVT-v4.3-CWM3RFS.zip, and it also went well. After that I wanted to "restore to factory settings" - format my user data. When I tried that, phone rebooted, than went to Android system recovery, and ask me to choose one of the options (see picture). I tried "wipe data/factory reset", but I got error messages from picture bellow. Tried again with same result.
Than I flashed phone with stock rom and stock kernel AGAIN. Tried to restore to factory settings, and 1. phone DIDN'T go to system recovery, and 2. erased all data WITHOUT any errors and with complete success.
Than I tried AGAIN (for the second time) to root with same kernel (again it went well). Than AGAIN tried to restore to factory settings (erase private data), and AGAIN problem mentioned above happened.
Now I have stock rom and stock kernel again. I need root for some things, but I don't know how to solve this problem. Could someone please help me with this?
Thanks.
hello
use odin to flash it see here
original rom xxjvt : http://www.techgom.com/2011/10/install-235-gingerbread-xxjvt-on.html
how to root it : http://www.techgom.com/2011/10/cf-root-for-gingerbread-235-xxjvt.html

you must translate page to english with google chrome
You've already done a hard reset, so just install cf kernel again. Most instructions say wipe before flashing, you have still removed previous files etc

Thanks both for quick reply.
@seghier
Thanks for these instructions. I did slightly different process. Maybe this why I got all these errors. I did use ODIN, but I flashed rom with "re-partition" checked (instruction says it shoudn't be checked), and also I used PIT while I am doing this and this instruction says I should do this without it. Check attachemnt picture for hw I did this.
Also, I did root with only PDA, and this tutorial says I should also PIT file included. See attachment for how I did this root.
I am a newbie so I am not sure if this could cause these errors? And did I do something wrong flashing and rooting phone my way?
Should I do this again following this two tutorials or not?
Also I am not sure what is DEODEXED means? Is there any differences between regular stock rom, and this DEODEXED one?
I just want regular stock rom and regular root.
oxeded rom is the original rom from samsung / deodexed is rom can be modified by users and you find in xda forums the difference
the method in photo is right
or you can install deodexed rom from here and the flash very easy :

than use the files like see in image without pit or repartition

Thanks, I will try now.
I still checked "re-partition" because I was using before DEODEXED, and now I am flashing ODEXED rom, so I thought maybe it is a different partition type. Is this ok? Flash went okay.
hello
when you find pit file repartition cheked automaticly
tell me if you success with flashing
Yes I did, thank you. But this problem with unable to restore to factory settings, after do root, still exist, even on ODEXED rom. It is deffinatelly some bug.
if you have problems you can format your sd card but first save all your files and data files using cwm : than create backup
you can try other deodexed rom from : s i9000 developement
i used the original deodexed rom and work fine
I don't have external SD card, just internal memory. Backup isn't problem. I wanted to delete all my personal data, but this error happenes. Did you try erase personal data AFTER did a root?
try this
settings ----- sd card and phone storage-------usb storage : format usb storage
and that remove all your files : music photos ...etc
-for hard reset try this : *2767*3855#
-factory data reset : *#*#7780#*#*
save all your photos and music ....
I already bring back some things, and also I managed to erased all that before doing root, so I won't experimenting anymore for now. Thak for your help. I will try this next time I want to clean my phone completly.
i hope that work for you
and deodexed rom more better because you can add new theme or launcher or flash update without limit than oxeded rom
good luck
Thanks.
try a new kernel
working now? please give a feedback ?
Like a wrote before. DEODEXED and ODEXED both work and I CAN restore to factory settings. After do root, it can't ba done anymore. I tried every possible combination, but result is same, so I guess that can't be done (which isn't so importante to me because I already restored to factory settings before apply root).
I didn't try other kernel (don't know either where to find other kernel), because I already installed programs, made personal settings, so I don't want again to wype all that.
If someone of you could try this it would be okay.
try semaphore kernel is very nice :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112908
use this application to install kernel :
https://market.android.com/details?id=neldar.sgs.kernel.flasher
and this application for save all your application to external card and you can restore it :
http://fr.appbrain.com/app/app-backup-restore/mobi.infolife.appbackup
--------
and don t forget to make backup with cwm
I am not so experienced about all this. What is difference between semaphore kernel and that other kernel I used for root?
Also if someone else could try this, who need to clean phone anyway, because I just make everything to work OK, so I don't want to experiment again.
Dear All,
i have SGN 2.3.6 with stock rom, after making the root and installing recovery, I found that music player and gallery do not see any songs or pics stored in USB Storage, and it is not the nomedia file issue since I did not find it on my phone, I have a thread here but with no solution.
Q1: is this normal or something went wrong? and how to solve it?
Q2: If can not solve it unless I flash the stock rom once again, and then I will lose root which I need, So, Can I keep the rooted stock rom as my main rom, and install the stock rom as if it is a custom rom via CWM to try if it will solve my problem
Take a look here for all the info you need. forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
Using 'mobile odin' you can flash a stock ROM and either tick everroot to keep root or use a rooted kernel (chainfire). Better instructions in the link above

1. Confirm you have data intact in interna storage. if you can see data in yout data storage, then go to setting - application -- manage - All- gallery - clear cache n data
same way do for music player. May it solve your problem.
2. If you have CF CWM, you can flash stock ROM, you can read installation guide from my signature, it has been described there, How to flash stock ROM with CWM with keeping root intact.

Just I want to know if I flash the stock rom your way, would it keep all my stuff (names, settings, apps) or it will be like a format?
if you flash non wipe ROM, it will remain as it is.

If I choose :
Older ROMs (Directly Rootable)
N7000JPKK2 ------ 2.3.6 2011 November------- N7000OJPKK2 -------------------United Arab Emirates ---------------Download
will this be non wipe rom?
it is the same I have now (I mean the same version, it is not upgrade or downgrade)
After I flash, I will hopefully find everything I had before there plus the root and CWM and the gallery fix?
what is the different between putting music and pics in USB Storage and in SD card (I don not have an external sd card)
I m not sure, but if your version was/is available on kies, it is nonwipe
There is a new version of UAE released y'day. that is Non wipe version.
You can put media file any place Int/Ext card
I checked right now for any updates via phone (OTA), and did not find any updates
Iam upgrading now via Kies, I finished downloading the new firmware and now the upgrade is in progress, but it moves 1% each 4 minutes, is this normal, (Iam new with Samsung since I used to use HTC phones before)
I'm on stock rom XXALI5
I've rooted and deleted some system apps what i'll never use n now notifications won't vibrate? not sure if it did before tbh
Anyhow i just did a factory reset and the system apps have not returned
I didn't install CF-CWM so i didn't make any back ups
I now have it installed and i was wondering where i can download the XXALI5 Uk Fw to Reinstall if that is Possible i'm still a Noob!! to android
The main reason is so i can do a Back Up of Stock Rom and then install a Custom Rom tho my current modded Stock Rom is fine and stable just no Notification Vibration ?
Thanks in advance
Unless installing the new Fw posted here will be ok, n just reroot using CF-CWM ?
Is that Possible?
What notifications don't vibrate, all or just some say messaging, email etc. Things you can check is, is vibration turned on in settings/sound.
There is also an option to have vibration on or off for received emails and messages, both in the settings of the app under the "Notification Settings" header so you can see if that is checked.
Because you have removed the apks from the system/app, doing a factory reset will not reinstall those removed apps as a factory reset will wipe the data partition, so it is good to have a backup if you are playing with the system files or have them in a flashable zip incase you edit or remove one that puts you in a bootloop.
You can download original firmware from sam mobile and samsung-updates websites and flash in either odin or mobile odin. If you flash in odin you will need to flash cwm and re root the phone, if you use mobile odin you can tick ever root option so you won't need to re root the phone or flash cwm again.
On samsung-updates there is lots of regeon options but none for uk, so which one would work for uk ? Its all new to me
And as far as i know it was just text messages that was getting no vibration..
Just made a backup on my modded stock rom n now installing Pandoriam 1.7
Hoping all goes well :fingers-crossed:
Hi, I have a few questions. I have galaxy Ace, it is rooted, it runs 2.3.3 stock rom. It started laging a bit so I want to update the rom to 2.3.6.
My questions are:
1.It is rooted now,when I flash the new rom, stock 2.3.6 with odin,do I have to root it again or does it stay rooted?
2.Does updating with odin deletes all apps and data?
3.I have link2sd and second partition set up,I have a lot of apps on second partition,what happens with second partition when I update rom?

1. Yes, you'll need to root again after using Odin.
2. Yes, you'll lose all your data, apk, sms, etc
3. If you don't wipe your sd-ext partition you'll keep all your apk there (I didn't try it but Odin DOESN'T touch sdcard/sd-ext partition . I advise you to use Titanium Backup to save your data before flashing a new rom via Odin
Thank you kind sir
So the correct order of actions would be
1.Backup everything
2.flash stock 2.3.6 with odin
3.root it
4.restore backups
4.install link2sd and relink all the apps with sdcard/sd-ext partition
is that right?
Should I follow this tut for flashing?

If you'll install the rom via Odin, then don't need root at all. But if you'll install a custom rom via CWM, then you'll need root. After installing a rom via CWM, don't worry that if your phone would still be rooted. It would still be rooted. And yes, please don't use Rom manager. Its just not meant for Ace.
Hello friends
first of all , i hate samsungs !
but a friend has asked me to root her samsung s5 mini SM-G800F
i managed to install TWRP and tried to flash su from the recovery , but still am getting the error
root undetected
the phone running android version 6.0.1
i know am 1 step away from completing the process , but i didnt manage to ..
thanks
Look for CF-Auto Root for your exact same model and ROM version, you flash it through Odin. I could also install Magisk, first extrack stock boot.img from stock ROM, patch it on phone using Magisk Manager, then flash patched versiin using Odin. You can't flash SuperSU directly.
the issue is , am rooting just because i wanna get the key file of whatsapp , so i can read them on the computer using the backup files ..
i managed to extract the file from the TWRP , but appearantly when you reinstall whatsapp , the key changes ,, and as she tried to restore those old whatsapp messages (god only knows what she tried) now the key cant be used to extract the data from the DB
thanks any way
Backup data in WhatsApp to Google Drive, then restore when installing on new phone...
yeah , i know , but the issue is that she bought a new phone , and couldnt wait to use whatsapp on it , so she activated the whatsapp and offcourse she didnt do a backup to the cloud on her old phone , so now she misses some old messages , i tried to copy the backups and to use the key , but seems that if you reisntall hatsapp the private key will change and not be able to decrypt the old messages
