Missing boot partion!

Does anyone know how to restore the boot partion? I think that this time I achieved to brick my phone. I tried to (read: FAILED) to downgrade the latest 2.3.5 and now no matter what I do, all I get is "update failed messages." I can't get into recovery (CWM or the standard) since when I boot my phone to the pink screen, nothing happens; no partion shows up anywhere. BLAH!

if you want i ill upload the image file to you??

It already is "semi-bricked", so it's a win-win situation whatever the result may be. It's just taking ages to download the needed rom file. blah x 2....

but you did something after read the thread??

Hello. How about ram memory management at this rom? better than stock? Thx for reply

can not extarct zip file...
I flash this rom. But when i try extract the zip file, can not. Extract failed......

no need of screenshots
i dont think there is any change in ui. same stock ui without samsung bloatwares. for me it lag sometimes. i think thats because of no of apps i use. till now no bugs found.

problem solved..
Hello ..
Dear aapa, thank u for this great rom but seems u have missed to include SELinuxModeChanger app! .
I have been struggling for 3 days since I install this rom because of the strange behaviour if many applications, like Titanium backup, root explorer, xposed installer, WhatsApp & viber can't download any files & many others due conflicts of permissions, till I did install the app SELinuxModeChanger from Google play and change to permissive, then everything is working well now without any problems..
Any way, the rom so far is very lovable , handy, extra smooth , no lag or force close at all (exempt the Samsung account registration, which I have deleted the few Samsung stuff left in priv-app).. Google chrome working well,doesn't crash here,and the ram usage is very low compared to other kitkat roms (always have more than 700mb free ram with more than 150 applications I have been installed).
Here I will attach some screen shots for the rom.
Thank u so much.

solved..

[Q] 910f Download Menu

Not sure how to explain this, other than to post a picture. This is a 910f on 4.4, and I've tried hardware and agb to get it into download mode to flash root with Odin. See picture.
Any help is much appreciated.

Are you sure, that is genuine note 4

Get phone info app from play store

How would I tell exactly? Just bought it.

Look like this

Get this app it's will tell you if your device fake original

Look at this

Where did you buy it? The recovery and download menu's should be in English. Try the application that 1980aksoy recommended and tell us what the result is.

I think you smoked it's clone ' fake

[Q] Root for Samsung Galaxy Core Prime G360F

Hello from Spain!
There are several users with this wonderful smartphone in my country.
It usually comes factory unlocked, running on Android KitKat 4.4.4.
I wonder whether there exists any root method for it. I've been told it won't work the method for the 360H model.
Any tips and help is very welcome, please.
Thanks a lot!

Please :crying:

I did it! I made the root to my Galaxy core prime LTE 360F . The application needed is called "Kingroot.apk". Can you find official website on google.
The application language is Chinese but is really easy , do not worry

Really?????? I just tried Kingo Root, but via USB on my PC, and it didn't work.
I'm gonna take a look at the APK version.
Thanks a lot! :victory:

I confirm that Kingroot.apk latest version 4.0 , rooted my G360F.:good:
Still remaining issue with KNOX, I cannot disable it.

Install root Explorer and delete Knox or install system app removal and uninstall
Sent from my SM-G360F using XDA Free mobile app

kingroot.net seems available for lollipop

anyone with a rooted G360F please do that command as root, we need it for unbricking his device,

so nobody is willing to help, no problem then i will repair it by warranty or by paying, but i will stop testing recovery mods for this phone. best of luck

Why is it desirable to delete or uninstall Knox. excuse my ignorance.

Its not as secure as people might think. It can cause issues/bricks when doing certain things with rooted phones. Most of all its partially developed and backed by the nsa which is one of the most shady surveillance entities in the world

It was meant to make phone more "secure" if u are not rooting or planning on flashing a rom then u can just leave it. Otherwise there are things u should know before disabling. What are your goals for this phone?

HOW THE HELL can you get Google Play from GOOGLE PLAY when it crashes IMMEDIATELY EVERY TIME YOU TRY???

If I had the money I would take a FREAKING HAMMER to my phone and buy a NEW one and start ALL OVER AGAIN DAMMIT!!!

I wouldnt know a custom recovery if it bit the entirety of one of my butt cheeks off.
Android version 4.4.4 ... I will send you a screenshot of my device "about" screen on my phone with PRECISE rom details when and if I decide NOT to set myself on fire with gasoline and calm down a bit.
I am currently tethered and therefore cannot access my phones files to fetch existing screenshot of that from my phone and have too much open on my PC via my phone internet wifi connection to bother to break it this minute
Thank you SO much for your obvious intention to help me btw ...

No worries sir. A custom recovery is clockworkmod,team win recovery project, philz recovery. They give u more options than stock recovery that comes with phone. I access recovery by holding down power,volume up, and home until samsung logo pops up, then release power and continue to hold others until recovery menu pops up. But ur phone might be different. Its important to have custom recovery so in case ur phone gets messed up you can fix it from there, or flash a new rom. And u can make a backup of the exact state ur phone is in now so u could restore it later if things go bad. I will help u with all this but it will take me awhile so dont stress. Dont worry im poor and only use wifi too. I have 4 kids and disabled son, health problems, etc so i feel your pain. We will get thru this together in time. To attach screenshot hit the quote button under my post and then reply. Normal reply wont do it. Then below where u write u will see attachment options and can select from gallery the pic. Then hit upload and close that window. Then send message. I got your back

One would think it should NOT be impossible to drag and drop or otherwise choose a photo on your PC to post in the forums here without having it posted on a website somewhere and having to supply a URL!
It is after midnight AGAIN here and NOTHING accomplished in my life today including eating or bathing or sleeping all because of this ******* phone and GOOGLE!
I cannot be the only one with such a problem in the world and I cannot believe that it has TOTALLY ruined over a month of my life to have uninstalled Google Play from my phone!

Oops i forgot u were on computer. Yeah gallery only on phone.
I always attach screenshots on my phone since thats where i take pics so i didnt know it was different on computer. Dropbox is probably easiest to use if u need url. Until u get everything set up this will be frustrating but then it will be awesome! Tomorrow we will try to get into ur recovery and if its not good enough then i will help u flash custom recovery and things will get easier. Then we will get ur google apps back no worries. U will not have problem like this again because we will back up ur phone properly and if mistakes are made after that it will be able to be restored the same day. Talk to u soon
