Make sure it is Just the "S5830" Any other then your in the wrong thread.
Tbh The order i do it, Flash the latest stable stock rom Via odin, Flash update {Any Kernel} (On phone) Then Reboot into CWM To flash a rom.

yes it is, im not a noobie,, done that too,, im trying to flash cm9 b10 now but its stuck at samsung, and yes i have done data wipe and cache wipe

Only way i can think of is:
Flash new software with Odin: http://www.4shared.com/rar/FCyxijg8/odin_s5830_package.html
Then flashing "CWMRecovery" {AttacthMent} as an update through stock recovery as an update
Then reboot into CWM Recovery To wipe data Etc Etc, Then flash what ever ROM you want..
please more info man really not helping.

Can't flash from philz recovery

Hi
I can't seem to flash anything from philz kernel on any jb rom. So when I flash a rom I flash franco kernel 6 and then the rom and it works fine, but I want to flash Darboc's transparent mods on ultimate jb rom, but it just freezes (like it does when installing a rom) and when I try to reboot It gets stuck on the boot screen or I just can't get out of recovery. I then need to flash franco kernel 6 and flash the rom again. I'm also unable to wipe system in philz recovery. I have also tried to flash the new version of philz kernel, but it freezed when flashing the kernel. Then I ran a kernel cleaning script and flashed the rom again but it still does the same.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

get back to ultimate rom the latest version. if it doesnot have Philz 3.99 version of the kernel, then instead of installing the new version using recovery. try using mobile odin to flash the tar version of the kernel. then try flashing what ever you want. hopefully this time it will work

When u flash kerenel u have to reboot into recovery so that flashing could take effect.
PhilZ JB kernel's are safe to wipe and philZ kernel's are best for TW based ROM's.
So if u running CM10,CM10.1,AOSP,AOKP,PA ROM's u shuold look for Hydra,Franco,etc..
And make sure that u reboot into recovery when u flash kerenel...

Hi thanks for the reply, I managed to flash the kernel with mobile odin, but I'm still unable to flash in cwm.

Are you able to format system with other kernel?

Yes and I always do before flashing a rom.

Not sure then why this is happening. I tried the same and I am able to format or flash mods using philz

Thanks for your help anyway, at least I'm on the latest philz kernel now.

Trying to install 4.4 Rom, falling at every hurdle.

Hi There,
Just wondering if anyone had any ideas why my phone refuses to co-operate!
Basically, after getting bored of the stock rom when I first got my phone, I somehow managed to install a CM based rom. That worked, but I got bored of the fact that the camera never seemed to work right, and some apps didn't work/ were graphically buggy. Assuming it was just a badly ported graphics driver or whatever, I found a way, using FlashTool, to revert to the stock rom (C6603_10.3.1.A.0.244_Generic UK to be precise). I wasn't sure exactly what it did, but it was back how it used to be. sorted.
So, since kitkat made it's way to the XZ, I thought I'd try one of those roms, being the curious bugger that I am. The process I ended up going with eventually was:
>Downgrading Kernel to a lower version because the root explot wouldn't work on 10.3.1.A.0.244
>Rooting using "DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v18"
>Upgrading kernel to one that would accept a recovery
>Installing TWRP
>Booting into recovery, CWM appeared instead. Strange, I thought. Oddly, mount USB wouldn't work at all, so I had to boot the phone back up to transfer the kitkat rom over
>Trying to flash the rom gave me an error number 7
>Boot Loop, at which point I just flashed 10.3.1.A.0.244 again.
I've tried this twice now, first with DooM Kernel, and then once with a different one. Neither CWM or TWRP have worked properly. Any help? Or am I just cursed?
Cheers

Tried this again, did literally everything I could think of and still no dice. Help? Have I somehow forced my phone to be on stock software forever?

If you dont unlock your bootloader, you can not use any kind of custom kernel.
That means aosp or aokp based firmwares can not run over locked bootloader.
Locked bootloader checks sign of kernel, if not certificated you will stuck on bootloop.
If you want to use any kind of custom rom... basicly.
1. Backup ta partition. " so you can revert any time you want."
2. Copy firmware zip file tou your internal or external sdcard.
3. Flash custom kernel. "Most of kernel have recovery option build in".
4. Boot in recovery mod. "Mostly press volume down while booting"
5. Insall custom rom.
6.a wipe dalvik-cache
6.b factory reset
Old setting might work or not with new rom. So first try to wipe dalvik- cache. If you stuck on boot loop or any kind of problem, just boot in recovery again and run factory reset.

Hey, thanks for your reply!
I had unlocked the bootloader when I first got the phone and just assumed it would be permanent. Would flashing it back to stock firmware re-lock the bootloader?
But yes, assuming my boot loader is still unlocked ( I have tried to check and it doesn't seem to be locked) I have been through those steps basically. I am fine to flash a kernel with a recovery but the recovery never works properly/ at all. I can root the phone no problem though.

Best to extract the boot.img from the zip file of the ROM you want to flash, and flash that first. Then flash the ROM from its recovery.

Cheers, I'll give that a go - I was under the impression that you weren't supposed to flash kernels that weren't designed for the currently installed ROM though? It just seems that any kernel I flash isn't working properly so I didn't think doing that would play any nicer with the phone

You're not actually going to boot into your current rom after flashing the kernel.
Flash the kernel via fastboot, then boot into recovery and flash the rom.
All this should be covered in the installation instructions of whatever rom you're trying to flash in any case....

Well, that seems to have done it! Thanks very much for your help.
So, I guess the moral here is that if you're on stock and need a recovery to flash a new ROM, always use the boot.img from the ROM you'll be using.
Thanks again - I'd never seen that said before but quite possibly I wasn't paying attention!

[Q] I can't mount any ROM. Device unnamed [?]

Hello there.
I have a problem with my N7000. Today I've flashed stock firmware onto my phone, everything went ok, but I have a problem now. When I'm trying to install something from recovery, I can't. I select the ROM, everything is beeing checked, etc, and when it wants to install update, a message appears: "This packgage is for 'galaxynote,n7000,N7000,GT-N7000' devices: this is a ' '." . This happens with every single rom that I am trying to install via recovery. I tried to flash stock firmware two times, two different, still same effect, tried to whipe data/cache etc, still didnt got any effect. Any solution guys?

After you flash the stock ROM, the recovery will be stock as well.. You will not be able to flash roms from here.. For that you will need to flash philz kernel.

Well actually I can install anything via recovery, so installing kernel isnt possible.

I have exactly the same problem (and the same situation) as the OP. You cannot flash Philz kernel from stock recovery because the exact same error will pop up.
Right mate I think I got it. You will need to flash an older version of Philz kernel first, and then upgrade. Worked fine for me once I decided to install "05.05.2013 - PhilZ-cwm6 v5.00.4 with CWM 6.0.3.1 based recovery" first.

Bootloop on custom ROMs; stock ROM OK

Hi all!
I flashed my recovery to TWRP and ever since then, I always get stuck in bootloop no matter what custom ROM I try. Flashing back to stock rom via ODIN works.
It's been a while since I've tinkered with custom ROMs so I may be missing something. Any ideas on where to start?

Hi,
Which phone ? i9305 or i9300 ?
Which version of TWRP do you use ?
You should try latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.3).
Or try Philz touch Recovery 6.48.4 or 6.59.

1.Repeat ODIN step to stock rom
2.Root the phone by kingroot (as it's doesn't required pc)
3.After rooting, Download Cwm rom manager
4.Install Cwm by selecting your phone model and etc
5.flash it directly from the apps
6.now you can flash any rom ( please backup your system for your safety)
