You can change to TWRP just by flashing the .tar.md5 file in Odin like you would CWM. I would recommend Philz Recovery though, seems to work best.

Hello, I rooted my galaxy 4 yesterday with odin v.3.07 and flashed CWM. I erased as usual when you flash another rom, but when i try to install a rom it just say something like "Aborted". I can access CMW and download mode, but can't install a rom from CMW, and I don't have any backup. Anybody know what to do? My computer knows that the phone is plugged in as i can see it in the odin program.

Could you give me a link please? I'm afraid of downloading the wrong stock file since my internet is so slow hehe. My phone is model number: i9505. Do i flash it inside CMW or with Odin? I read something about flashing with odin, but on my other phone i've always used CMW

Hi,
You will need to find the right one for your phone HERE
You must know the area your phone came from.
These seem to be zips,so flash with CWM.

Thank you, I found it. But when i tried to install roms with CWM before it just said "Aborted", maybe their is something wrong with CWM. I read something about installing with Odin, but then i'll need a .tar file or something like that

You have to unzip this file and install the content with Odin.
After unzipping this archive you should end up witch md5 file and this is the file to put in to Odin

Hi,
Maybe try installing a different recovery.
I heard sometimes these new recoveries need more than one go to install things.
Thank you, problem solved =)
Can anyone Help, I'm looking for the Stock s4 19500 XXUEMJ5 Kernel, as you may know Hot File is now dead and I can't seem to find one. After checking the "fake system status" option in wanam Xposed I was surprised to see after reboot a package update downloading, I try install the update via CWM recovery but the android robot has a cardiac arrest, I'm assuming the install needs to be installed via the Stock recovery to work, (right or wrong?). Anyone know where I may find the Stock Kernel/recovery or does anyone know a trick to install via CWM recovery.
Many Thanks in advance.
If the android robot has a cardiac arrest.. this mean u haven't install one CUSTOM Recovery in ur phone. Try flashing by Odin: TWRP, CWM or Philz Touch

Many Thanks for Your Reply! I Was Flashing the Update using CWM but as I said it failed, I was assuming the reason being that the md5 signature reading is different between stock recovery, (but I'm Just a noob), and that of CWM. I tried to find the downloaded file but with no success, I assume it was in the Cloud with Samsung otherwise I if I had the downloaded file in my hands so to speak I my have been able to investigate it a little further. If you have any ideas "Prey Tell" Again Thanks for Your Reply and Kind Regards to You!:good:

Hi Joku1981. It's headed as Update Package, 48.5MB in size and its for Improved stability with an option to install now or later. Oh! the updater widget is called, Software update v3_1309_2_1 and v6_1309_3_1 in Titanium.
I accidentally overwritten the SecSettings.apk- so now every time I try to open the settings app it crashes..
Does anyone have a copy of the settings apk?
Any info is much appreciated!

I am running stock and its rooted.
I have no clue on how to check the firmware without the settings application...feels sort of hopeless haha.
Do you think if I flash a new rom everything will work?
I don't have a recovery installed and everytime I try installing one I get the "seandroid enforcing" bit with it boot looping.

You can dirty flash the rom you are on without wiping and all should be restored, just reflash the custom recovery and reroot afterwards.

Uninstall rom manager ad never use it again mate, it used to be bad but lately its awfull. Just flash the CWM .tar file with Odin and you`re set. Link CWM recovery by Chenglu http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2454079. Pick the right .tar file and its done in a jiffy.

Tried to install CWM from rom manager 6.0.4.6 but i had 6.0.4.7.
This cus i have problem installing CM updates directly by pressing restart and install.
Efter this i was in a boot loop an could not access CWM only the DL mode. So i installed CWM from the original source i did the first time and then the boot was ok all the way but then tried PWR VOL+ HOME but then i gut in to the boot loop again untli i reinstalled the CWM tried once more but same result.
So now i have CWM installed and i can boot up but i cant access CWM to make backup or restore the previus one.
Any ideas of what could be wrong?
Wrong section
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
6.0.4.7 is for KK bootloader. If you haven't that's why
go back to 4.6
I have kitkat cm11
maybe thats why it does not work now?
With one should i have? Link to dl pls.
Sorry if posting wrong could someone move it please?

I upgraded to samsung stock kikat before and its non reversible as i got it does that matter?
to be frank, I never try to flash anything from ROM manager.
This tools I've left it very very long time ago.
Have you tried to reflash the KK stock firmware, since you said you are on KK already (to get your stock recovery first), make sure everything is ok. Then reflash the CWM through ODIN. Don't use ROM manager.

But if it is the only way sure i will try it.
Hi all,
I rooted my smg900f two days ago and flashed a recovery, everything went fine, I tried a couple of custom rom and at some point I noticed that I didn't have root access anymore (checked with root checker). I launched towelroot again, and now it says that my device is not supported yet. Does anybody encountered the same issue ?

I have clockwork recovery, I had Omega ROM running on my phone (maybe at this moment I already lost root but I only noticed it after), I tried to flash this mod, it didn't work so after a few tries I full wiped my phone and insalled Omega 8.0 again. Then I noticed I lost root access when trying to open some apps.
I also flashed the bootloader for SMG900F featured in the Omega rom thread
That's about it

Then i suggest you flash a stock rom, factory reset and root/flash custom recovery from scratch. Its seems some files are messed up that prevents you to root. Backup important files to the pc/sdcard first. That is what i would do at least

There should be a folder on the sdcard named Clockworkmod with the backup, save it to the sdcard before you factory reset. No a backup can`t be flashed with Odin, only in recovery

Did you flash a stock rom with Odin or flash a custom rom in 3rd recovery? Just do a data factory reset in recovery, pull the battery and wait 20 seconds and flash a stock rom with Odin.
