Tried the G7102's CWM? No difference, as in my old Galaxy Star, the same build of CWM worked on two variants.
Technically, there shouldn't be a difference.
If it failed, you can simply fix using Odin.

You're using 4.3 recovery on 4.4.2.
That's it.

my device doesn't received 4.4.2 yet so I am running android 4.3 and i think i am flashing 4.4.2 recovery on 4.3 so tell me recoveries which were made for 4.3 on sm-g7102 hope that works

I'm sure that this would work.
Use the older PhilZ Touch 6.48 for 4.3.
You can find it in the recovery section.
Make sure you use the old release, not the new KitKat one.

tried but failed i also updated to kitkat 4.4.2 and tried the kitkat recovery it also failed i think there 's a qualcomm secure bootloader but it should also be on sm-g7102 how this recovery works on that device.CWM should be ported for this device seperately because this device has a different case.

Secure Boot doesn't affect anything.
Make sure you use a 4.4.2 recovery on 4.4.2.
Redownload as to eliminate mix-up between recoveries.

[Q] I keep getting a recovery error for my i9505G. Please help

I've been trying many things to no avail. I am able to get recovery on my i9505G (which I have read is built into the CWM version now for the i9505) and it seems to work fine. I have the 01/08 nightly CM11 on the phone, but whenever I reboot and select "recovery" it gives me this error. Sometimes if I hit the restart the device, it will boot into recovery correctly. I've even started fresh by wiping the entire phone and the multiple partitions (from having started on 4.2) and flashed a fresh 4.4.2 stock (rooted) tar through odin. From there I flashed the recovery, installed CM as I always have, but it is still happening.
What am I doing wrong?
The photo u attached is STOCK RECOVERY. If u want install CUSTOM RECOVERY for install CUSTOM ROMS: HERE
* EDIT: Dont flash custom recovery/Roms/Kernels/Basebands of i9505 for ur i9505G. Its completely different

That is the weird thing, it does have the custom CWM recovery on it, but this happens when I click to reboot into recovery in CM11. I've tried reinstalling CWM numerous times, but I still get this same situation after the first time.

Well here is what I am trying to do. Root isn't a problem, but getting recovery on it is. I've been using the jltflexx builds of CWM and Cyanogen because I read that it was built into it. They both install with no problem and I can get up and running. The problem I run into is getting back into custom recovery and I get that picture error above when I try. I don't know if the custom recovery is getting overwritten by something or what, but it does get installed otherwise I wouldn't be able to get CM11 on it in the first place.

That is what I don't get. How could I have flashed the custom CWM recovery, used it to install CM, but then have stock recovery and can't get back into the custom one all the time? It is really bizarre.

[Q] Rooting S4 (Build No. NC1)

I am new to flashing so sorry if I have asked some stupid questions.
I have SGH-I337 (ATT) and would like to root and then maybe install Cyanogenmod or any other custom ROM.
Device Details:
Baseband - NC1
Build No. - NC1
Android Version - 4.4.2
I tried to root NC1 directly using motochopper. Then I read and I am now trying to downgrade.
I have got ODIN 3.09 but it does not say support to I337. I have gone through Noob Helper
I have downloaded all zips from Downgrade
After reading the article of Modems; I got confused about my bootloader.
I also have gone through the thread but after that confusion, I did not proceed ahead.
Could anyone please help me?
How to identify boot-loader?
Which ODIN to use or do I need to use SAFETRAP (not sure if bootloader is MF3) ?

Dont worry about Odin saying the device is i9505 or so. The flash will work.
For samsung phones running full stock firmware, all the components have the same version. Since your build is NC1, your bootloader is also NC1.
You are in the right track. Follow the downgrade thread to partial downgrade to MK2. Then use saferoot to root. Then install safestrap v3.72. Then use the deadly venom kitkat magic tool to install any kitkat rom of your choice from this list (post 3).
You cannot install any AOSP based rom. So, no CM. Even google play edition roms dont work.
You can install AOSP themed roms (like BlackBox3.0)

Thank you for the response. I have downgraded to MK2 and have done the root.
I was wondering if you could tell me if it is possible to install Liquid Smooth ROM. I have seen the video and I have downloaded from here which says S4 unified. Also, there are some videos claiming CM on S4.
Could anyone please help on the same?

As already stated, no AOSP based roms will work (ROMs that are built by compiling AOSP code). Only TouchWiz based roms will work. If you need AOSP look and feel, you can install an AOSP themed rom.
CM/AOSP on ATT S4 is only possible if you have the MDB/MDL bootloader. Anything above that, it wont work.

Sorry for the repeated questions.
I tried to update through Safestrap with BlackBox. But I got stuck on the boot screen where it shows Samsung Logo. I might have done something wrong. I just clicked next on BlackBox 3.0. Could anyone please help me !
Edit:
When I tried to reboot into recovery mood (Vol Up + Home + Power) it says:
" Secure Fail Kernel
(Warning Sign) System Software not authorised by ATT has been found on your phone"
Don't select the reboot now option in the aroma installer at the end. Then, after the ROM flash is complete and before you reboot the phone, you need to put the phone back in download mode and flash the MLD ap/bl/cp files from the tool

I flashed the NB1 using ODIN but it still stays on Samsung Logo with custom logo. I am not able to navigate any where else from that screen.
Edit:
I was able to go into system recovery. Please let me know if I can fix the error somehow.
Thanks a lot !
Get into stock recovery and factory reset. I am not sure why you flashed NB1 though, as there is no direct root method for it yet

He probably was following the steps that were provided elsewhere here that had you go from nc1 to nb1 then back to the M (I can't remember which M) one.

I had rooted MK2 and the installed the custom ROM (Blackbox) and then was suppose to flash NB1.
So, if I just did a factory reset it would solve my error?
Thanks for the help!
Edit:
I tried doing the factory reset. It just wipes all the user data. And I am still stuck on the same screen with Samsung and the custom logo.

Not booting into recovery

My friend's got a s3 neo and all he wants is cm 12 on his phone. I rooted using towelroot but I can't get into recovery and even if I install any custom recovery the phone boots into download mode saying "Could not do normal boot" bla bla and Qualcomm secure boot enabled and write secured something like that. I think that some qualcomm security is not letting the recovery written in system. AND then when I boot the phone back on and start flashify it says the current installed recovery: Stock recovery.
Help me here guys. I just wanna get into recovery somehow and wipe and get on with lollipop

Nope. It's never updated to 4.4 it's on 4.3
Are you sure you have installed the 4.3 custom recovery? The 4.4.4 version cannot work on 4.3. Make sure you followed this guide not the 4.4.4.

I don't understand...
Safestrap is for the AT&T and Verizon S4. Since those two carriers lock the device's bootloader, the only way for device owners to enjoy custom ROMs is by giving up a portion of internal storage for a second ROM to be installed.
Safestrap doesn't work on the I9505 to the best of my knowledge. You want MultiROM instead.
Yes, i installed second rom with multirom, but i have a big problem with stock rom.
Stock rom is now very slow and give me error Camera failed.Also flashlignt doesnt work, with error flash light is bisy.
Many aplications crash with message aplication stopped working.
How to solve this problem?
