how to flashl custom ROM?

just go s4 and it is stock still. I want to go for custom ROM like S4. I looked around the forum but couldn't find a way to flash the custom ROM lik mega..
Can someone point me a thread on this?
Should I just use ODIN to flash the recovery like twr and then boot into recovery to flash the custom ROM?
will then the rom be root as for custom ROM.

First Root using Odin
Then install philz recovery odin
Go to recovery wipe factory data, cache, dalvik
Then install ROM from internal or sd card
Reboot all done :thumbup:
Above method I m saying for i9500/ 9505 other device
And I suggest u atleast give your mobile variants so we can post links also along with it

thank you very much.
I am looking around.
could you provide the odin link to download and
the instruction to root?
could I use twrp recovery? I used twrp for my sensation previously.
Any instruction to flash twrp. I guess it should also be done from odin.
Thanks.
btw: The model is 9505 in dk 3.

Below link is for recovery

Use the above link to Cwm recovery for ur i9505 it is better as per me
Its for i9505

I believe I flashed CF-auto-root properly as I got root permit.
But for the 2nd step of the cwm flash,
there is only the stock flash. it reboot to the system as usual.
I tried the odin come with cf-auto-root and 3.07 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728605

So u saying u not able to get cwm recovery and have only root access
How are u trying to go for recovery
After flashing the same using odin
to go to recovery u have power off the device
Press volume up + home + power button all together till samsung appear and then leave and see u should have recovery

you are right. I could get to the recovery after odin.
my mistake when holding the button to start recovery.
But I just need to use volume up + power button.
for download mode, I just need volume down + power button.
just another question, is it required to root the phone to odin cwm
recovery? Thanks.

[SOLVED] My Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 won't start

Hello everybody
My friend has a Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and since yesterday it won't start. It shows "Samsung Galaxy Y young" and doesn't start. So I decided to try to root it and install Jellyblast v3 but it's the same problem. I followed a tutorial and tried to wipe cache and data but still the same problem. So now I read that the people who had the same problem as me, resolved their problem by flashing the stock rom with odin. But I saw that we needed some information like PDA, PHONE and CSC but I can't have these informations as the phone won't start So I am going to follow a tutorial to flash it with odin. But I'm worried about bricking definitely her phone :s So I want to know if there is no risk to brick her phone if I try to flash a stock rom without knowing these information (PDA PHONE CSC).
Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad english °° !!

there is only to types of cwm for galaxy y
1 - tempory cwm zip - flashed in stock recovery to give you cwm - this zip must be flashed each time you enter recovery to bring up cwm
2 - perminant cwm - this is included in a custom kernel and replaces stock kernel and stock recovery with a custom kernel and recovery
if you flashed a kernel state which one it was
to use odin
download odin 3.07
download and install samsung usb drivers
put phone in download mode by pressing vol down home button power button until download screen appears
connect phone to pc via usb cable
press vol up to begin connection
wait for drivers to install
open odin
on the left hand side it should say under com:id com then a number in a coloured box if connected
then put
pda in pda
modem in phone
csc in csc

no you cant flash stock "firmware" without odin
if you flash a so called stock firmware via cwm all you are doing is flashing a custom rom with no modifications - slight technically difference

wouldnt work though if you changed your file system to ext to use cm7/9/cyanmobile/pa
you can only restore a nandroid backup fully if you restore it on the kernel on which it was made and you are on the same file system as it was made although you can advanced restore if on different kernel and should work if it can verify md5 sum

Did you root your phone first? If not, root it first.

yes you will flash it through odin.ofc check your settings in odin.in PDA tab insert your tar.let odin do its stuff.after that power down your phone,press home button volume up button and power button.You will boot @ recovery boot and you will see cwm menu.

[Help] How to install ZIP stock firmware from Samsung

I have a Galaxy S4 i9506 model SHV E300S from SK Telecom (Korea). I can't update it via OTA as I'm currently in the Philippines and don't have a SKT Sim which is required. Kies is also not pushing any updates for me. So I searched the web and saw a firmware here: http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=SHV-E300S
My question is how to install this firmware to my phone? I only have Philz recovery installed but my phone is not rooted as I don't know why the guides aren't working for me. I also have another problem, as I can't boot to download mode since I have a Philz recovery installed. Please help me as 4.3 is really and eats up the battery of my phone. Thank you very much!

U have to unzip the file which u got from that site.. u will get .tar.md5 file inside the zip.. download odin and flash that file using odin.. if u dont know how to use odin then google is ur best frnd in this case..
