[Q] Installing CWM on Galaxy POP GT S 5570

My friend want to upgrade his phone,
and asking me to do so.
I know few things and not a noob but also not a dev or a pro.
Thus i want to ask a question:
He is having an unrooted Galaxy POP GT S 5570 with stock 2.2 froyo
Question is that
Can i directly flash CWM recovery 4.0.0.5 using odin
that is just flashing tass.ops and tass-recovery-cwm.tar ???
Because somewhere i read that CWM requires GingerBread on GT S 5570 to work?
And i know that it is very difficult to unbrick for users like me and sometimes impossible for noobs.
I'm having Xperia X8
And sony ericcson devices are very easy to unbrick using official SONY UPDATE SERVICE SOFTWARE.
If there is something like the above one, for SAMSUNG,
Please tell me?
I tried to OC his phone once and phone strucked in bootloops.
Then somehow I managed to install Stock Firmware of Galaxy MINI
Then we go to the CUSTOMER Care and asked them to reinstall the firmware
And again he is on stock 2.2 only.

well, I think cwm 4.0.0.5 will not work on froyo.. there was once a CWM made specially for froyo and you can get it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16147687&postcount=1
Problem is that there is no more development for froyo.. so for any questions and issues that you may encounter, you will have to figure it out yourself..
Why not upgrade the phone to GB? It would a lot easier and developement is concentrated on this version. you can flash with Odin tool to upgrade the phone to GB. flash cwm 4.0.0.5 from there and you can start installing custom roms on it. you can choose to update cwm as well since current one is 5.0.2.6..

Thanks for your support and help.
I'm reading and searching on these things.
Now the actual thing that i want is
A backup of the current state.
But if is 100 % sure that GT-S5570_INU_S5570DDKQ7_S5570ODDKQ6_S5570DDKQ7.rar
file will upgrade to GB and works well, then no need of backup.
Ok i had understood all the things .
I would surely upgrade my friends phone and install CWM and provide him with a big list of CUSTOM ROMS which devs are developing at our beloved XDA FORUMS.

THANKS A LOT for the assistance.

[SOLVED] Bricked misusing Odin

Hi
I have been around the xda forums for a while, but never got to register. Anyway, I am not a complete noob neither am I a dev, let's say an electro fan. My sister just bought a brand new junk S5570, she has been having trouble with the very limited internal memory that is already fall of bloatware, even SMSs could not be displayed due to the shortage of memory, I tried to move everything to the SD with no chance, Samsung's shtware is there to stay. I decided to install CM7.2 which I had already successfully installed on many handsets. I rooted the ****5570 and have been having trouble installing CWM because Odin v4+ just doesnt detect the phone what ever I do, use different drivers with no luck at all, but the weird thing is that its detected by Odin v1.85, I accidentally flashed cwm.tar using Odin v1.85 and now the only thing I can access is download recovery mode (not recovery mode). Now Odin still detects it, I want to know how to flash a stock firmware using Odin v1.85, please guys help me I'm in a really embarrassing situation and my sister is not aware of what happened, she has been dreaming about an android phone for ages and it's certainly devastating to see her beloved phone turned into a paperweight please help me guys and quick
I think v3.xx would work as well

ONLY 4.38 will work. Other Odin versions can mess up the phone. Go to samfirmware.com, download s5570 stock ROM for your country, get Odin 4.38, tass.ops and flash. After it flashed, hold home+power until stock recovery comes up, then wipe data and you will have a stock ROM.

I thought that the suffix "i" indicates its region, just like Sony does, for example ST25i means international, while ST25a indicates america

samsung is totally different from sony

need a little help flashing a ROM

My wife asked me to put her phone back to stock Samsung firmware as she didn't want CM10.1 anymore (yes, I said she was silly)
Anyway the problem is.....My computer will not recognise her phone, It's running Windows 8 are the i9000 incompatible?
I have Kies installed and it recognises my phones fine, both Samsungs.
So....I was wandering if either there is anyone that knows how to sort this out as I have tried everything I can think of. Or are there flashable ZIP packages anywhere of stock firmware I can flash through recovery?
Thank for any help

Use task manager to kill any Kies tasks that you find running, install i9000 windows driver (google search) than flash desired rom (preribly stock) via odin.
Yes, I did that just yesterday running Win8.
You can find stock roms over HERE
---------------------------------------------------
phone: i9000
rom: CyanAOSP v0.5.2
kerel: Semaphore 2.9.7s

Thanks for your quick response! I always kill kies when using Odin so that wasn't an issue. However I was under the impression that installing kies gave me the drivers so thank you for your advice I'll install i9000 drivers separately and hopefully sus it out.
Thanks mate

[Q] Help -I have my Samsung Galaxy mini in a Boot loop

I accidently updated an unrooted Samsung stock ROM that shipped with the phone with cyanogen_mod
_7_tass in my attempt to root my Samsung Galaxy mini s5570 using update.zip method.
I had intended to used the "update.zip" method to root the device. But the ROM MOD instead, sadly had also been "update.zip".There was a mix up of the two files.Theres unfortunately no Clockworkmod Recovery installed. (I was quite aware of this possibility if things were to go wrong.).
My Device runs on Froyo and now is in a bootloop.
I just only want to find out if there is the slimest chance of having my device back in shape again.
Thanks a bunch in advance !
I will be happy to hear theres some hope.

You must reinstall again stock rom (programs needed: Odin,tass.ops and drivers for galaxy mini s5570). On xda you'll find step by step reverting back to stock rom your galaxy mini. Btw read carefully every step to understand those things and after you can practice. Check general section for Odin and installing stock rom.
Press thanks if helped you

am downloading .. s5570 galaxy mini firmware--- is that the same thing as stock ROM?

After a whole day of no-work and goofing around the web yesterday i figured out somthing similar but just wasnt sure ...felt i needed to search some more. then your quote dropped in my inbox. Its made a lot of my confusion clear. I have tass, odin and ops. all the programs need already. At first i could access the stock rovery mode, but using odin again to try and get Clockworkmod made matters worse. I have with a bootloop and no where close to the recover mod any more just downloading mode. So I've kept reading and reading on to find out something useful. I guess that may be the sure way getting stock rom installed back.
Now i am just downloading .. s5570 galaxy mini firmware--- is that the same thing as stock ROM?

That's it man...Official firmware is called the stock rom...

Your phone is not officially supported by Mobile Odin. That is a risk.
If you want to continue, go to this link and download CWM-FROYO.Tar. at the bottom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342190
Once you downloaded the .Tar file, follow the instructions at this link.

This took me less than 10 minutes to find the information. If you have done what I said and Google it yourself, you would not need to waste your time spamming random threads throughout XDA and opening up old threads from years ago. If you can't bother to read through the links I have provided and continue to spam random threads, I will report your for spamming.

When i do so then do i also need odin or without odin simply i connect my device kies install required drivers and the compatible gingerbread rom for my phone...is it so...please answer...thankyou in advance...

Well,
Odin is a program that Samsung engineers use to directly flash the software onto a user's phone.
Example, when you go to a service center for your handphone repair, Samsung will flash your handphone's software using Odin.
Kies is a consumer based suite where you can do a lot of different things like updating software and backup.
You can either use Kies or Odin to upgrade your phone software BUT! You can only use Odin to install CWM (custom recovery).
Use Kies if you want to upgrade only, use Odin if you want to upgrade AND install custom recovery.
You need a computer for both programs. If you want to install using Odin, computer based Odin and not mobile odin, do tell me so I can help you. Using Odin can break your device if you don't do it properly.
I hope this gives you a better understanding of how Android works.

Wow it was really worthful information for me...
But bro i would like to first update using kies if it really supports my device..because i have the following aims
First update to new version to experience my new featured phone..
Second to install CWM using odin as u have said...

And again thankyou for your guidline...it also increasing my knowledge and let me experience the android software..and with which i can overcome the disadvantages of my phone...its interesting...

Sure you can update using Kies. Those who are much more comfortable with Android would directly update to the latest software version using Odin and then flashing CWM as it's much more direct.
For me personally, one of the first thing I would do when I get a new phone would be to get root, install/flash CWM and then install/flash the latest Android version using CWM. It's much more faster and convenient because I would only need to use the computer once, and that's to install CWM on my phone and I can use CWM to install a newer Android version or custom rom.
One thing to remember is that, if you have root and you choose Kies to update your phone to the latest version, you will lose your root access on your phone. So remember to install root again after you update your phone.
Second thing to remember is that, once you have updated your phone's software, PLEASE BE AWARE OF WHICH VERSION OF CWM YOU ARE FLASHING. If it's meant for Froyo, don't install it on Gingerbread and vice versa. If you don't, the installation might not be successful or YOU MIGHT EVEN BRICK YOUR DEVICE!
Thirdly, when you're using Odin to flash CWM or updating the software, please READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY! Odin has some options that you can select but most of the time you don't have to change anything. If you are unsure if it's the correct options, close Odin and rerun it. Doing that will reset the options to it's default. THIS IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT! If you try to install CWM or update your software and you selected the wrong options, you can permanently brick your device!
That's all. It's very long, I know, but since this is your first time I think it would be good to let you know of the dangers that you might face if you do things wrongly or do not follow the instructions. Glad that I can help. If you're still unsure you can just ask here again.

Yes offcourse we should know the both +ve and -ve aspects of what we are doing...but i would say, by questioning i have many more learnt than to read the other farms and also better than googled...
Also i feel confidence what i will do..
But kies should update my phone to the latest version...but is gingerbread the latest one?
send from my GT s5570 froyo..

Yeap, it would update your phone to the latest. Officially it is Gingerbread, but you can also flash up to jellybean on unofficial ones too.

Also using kies can i update to jellybean or with CWM...

You can upgrade your device to jellybean with cwm only. Before that you need to be on gingerbread, not froyo.

^^^^^^^
What he said. Samsung only provided Android upgrade up to Gingerbread for your device. You can check out his thread and follow his instructions there and install Jellybean. Once you have CWM installed, it'll take about a few minutes or so to upgrade to Jellybean via recovery. At least most of the time lol. And like he said, it'll save a lot of headaches in the future.

Bro i would like to begin with kies...no problem which one...but once i will jump to gingerbread,flash cwm and then partition as i have said you before...
Also will i overcome the problem of incompatible applications...e.g firefox and many more...if not...
Then will it be possible to jump from gingerbread to jellybean or so..can you please clear...

Yeah. Flash CWM using Odin. Don't partition your phone using Odin though.
Flashing a jellybean custon rom should solve the problem of incompatible applications as it's a much newer version of Android than Gingerbread.
But, some custom roms requires you to flash some stuffs first if you're upgrading from Gingerbread to Jellybean.
You can always check with @Venkatesh what to flash as he's a rom developer for one of the Jellybean rons for your phone.

Ok thanks alot for helping and giving the information...
The problem is, my computer dont works...next year in january i must purchase one...then i would like to upgrade first to gingerbread...

No. You need to use Odin on your computer to flash CWM. But once you have root and CWM, you can upgrade your software directly using the .zip file from your phone in recovery mode.

Hmm ok brother thanks alot for helping...after i will done, i will tell you...and after or during when i need help i will contact you...thankyou and talk with you later...bye
