[Q] Custom ROM on STOCK Galaxy Mini? - Samsung Galaxy Mini

Galaxy Mini running Android version 2.3.5 (Gingerbread)
How do I install this CM10.1 ROM on my phone?
I've rooted + flashed ROMs before on my i9100 but it appears the Galaxy Mini process is much different. Help is greatly appreciated!
Does the Mini have to be rooted prior to installing CWM or custom ROMs?
As far as I know I simply plug my phone into computer, download a CWM file and flash it to phone with Odin. Then I drag the CM10.1 zip file onto the phone and using the CWM recovery menu, flash the ROM?
Thank you in advance

I don't understand what you are meaning here. I asked in my original post the instructions for flashing CM10 onto my Galaxy Mini and whether or not the steps I outlined above are correct or if I am missing something.

Ya thats right, but u before must do hard reset, cache and dalvik wipe but i think u already knew that

First root it , then flash cwm tar file in odin as one package , and thej you can put custom rom on sd and go to cwm recovery wipe cache/data and cache partitation. Then just install the rom zip and there you go.
If you dislike the rom just flash another and if your tired off custom roms flash back stock rom

As you are on a safe kernel just download cm9 and gapps put it into your sd card, reboot to recovery (cwn) wipe data/cache /dalvik cache flash cm9, then go to advanced options and reboot recovery once rebooted flash gapps and reboot system.. That's it no need to go back to gb

You can use Mobile ODIN Pro for the same. It does the job and doesn't cause Triangle on boot and doesn't cause count.
Just download GB Rom from dr ketans thread or www.sammobile.com and put it in your SD Card.
Open Mobile Odin.
Select the file in the column Open the file.
And Start Flashing. Remember to check for md5 checksum before flashing if it asks and Wipe Dalvik/Cache.
Done
Now you have Stock GB Rom on your Note.
Or
You can use Abyss Redpill Recovery Original Logo.(Reboot into CWM and flash Abyss 4.2)
Reboot Recovery
Now Full Wipe.
Flash cm9
Flash Gapps
Reboot System

Since you are on Custom ICS Rom its safe to wipe but Using Abyss 4.2 is the best way to install cm9. I have installed cm9 from safe kernel with ICS but does not recommend you as this will mess up (probably) .
Read if this can help you
For switching your existing ROM to GB ROM
here some modification
Download Prerooted ROM
and flash using Movile odin Pro
Here is guide how to use Mobile odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1816158
Note : You need not to change kernel in step mentioned above guide
Go directly from where you are without doing anything.
At end you will have Rooted GB ROM + CWM without using PC Odin.

It is still dangerous in that it's a sure brick. Need to install gb kernel with cwm to perform cm flashes, goes for cm10 also.

Yet Another Question About Flashing

Hey Guys
I Know you get quite a few people ask what I'm about to ask and yes I've searched but since the touch version of CMW has been declared dangerous at the moment I thought I'd ask.
I'm Currently on "N7000CPWLP5" Stock ICS and I want to install "KingDroid ICS NoteMania v7.3"
1. What recovery is safe to use to install?
2. Do I need to flash a different ROM or GB before going to "KingDroid ICS NoteMania v7.3"?
3. Can I just Copy the ZIP over, boot into stock recovery, use some zip of CMW, reboot recovery, do a Nandroid backup, wipe data/factory reset, install from zip, select "KingDroid ICS NoteMania v7.3" then install? Or is it different on the note (Previously knowledge from previously owned ZTE Blade)
Thanks

DO NOT use that temp recovery, best is first root using new method in dr.ketan's thread and then flash custom ICS kernel using mobile odin, it will also install cwm recovery to your device and then you can flash Kingdroid using cwm recovery.
You can also root and flash cwm recovery together by flashing custom kernel using pc odin if you can handle yellow triangle
Thank you I Will now try it!
I've used it before it was unknown to damage/brick but luckily I was safe!
Thanks Again

After rooting via flashing a custom kernel of your choice, you can download Triangle Away from the Google Play Store to get rid of the yellow triangle, if you cannot bear the sight of it!

Just flash cf root kernel using Odin to get root and cwm recovery. Then flash the cm10 zip and gapps.

Semaphore kernel is inside the CM10 zip so it will get automatically installed when your flash the zip.
Yes CWM recovery is built into cf root kernel.
Also when you flash the Cm10 zip remember your phone will restart almost straight away and go into boot loop. This is because the partition layout is being changed.
Just reinsert the battery and boot into recovery again. Flash the cm10 zip again and this time it will finish installation.
& its no problem

Search for the newest cwm recovery and flash it, install the JB Rom with factory reset and the hole stuff and then have a look at the wiki maybe theres a zip to go back to stock recovery (Used this way myself but i' m using the s+ so i don't now if theres such a file for the normal s. sorry for that)
Or you can search for how to recover from bootloop to recovery
Anywhere was a thread for this but don't know at the moment, will post a link tomorrow

CWM6 was designed only to flash CM 11( KitKat) based roms. You won't be able to flash anything other than that using it. Your rom might be working perfectly. But in order to install CWM5 in your current state, your only option is to flash stock rom back. You can't flash CWM5 from CWM6, similarly you can't flash any other roms using CWM6 either. So do a complete back up of data using Titanium Backup, flash stock rom using odin, install root and install CWM5. You won't have any problem with non-KitKat based roms. As for the KitKat based roms, you can either make any CM 11 rom compatile with CWM 5( thanks to @brijeshep) or use CM 11 rom flashable through CWM 5 (thanks to @Salim El Yabouri).
Make CM 11 ROM Compatible with CWM 5.x ~ Cooper Device
Kitkat For All
Once installed, you can restore the data back. Hope I helped
I have the same problem before and i dowload the two recovery 5.0.x.x and 6.0.4.6 , i open the two zip and place the recovery.img of the 5.0.x.x zip into the 6.0.4.6 zip i erase the old recovery.img of 6.0.4.6 zip and i flash the 6.0.4.6 whith the recovery on my phone (6.0.4.6) , it show me the installation of a 6.0.4.6 cwm and when i reboot into recovery i had a 5.0.x.x recovery
