I am on a UK (vodafone) phone 4.4.2 KK and after rooting with odin and tripping knox (obviously) i installed CWM And TWRP and entered recovery but only after a long time i discovered that the recovery mode i was entering was stock .
In the recovery mode i couldnt find the option to install from zip only the option to install from external storage.
I have downloaded the CM 11 4.4.4 and put it on the external sd card.
In the recovery mode i navigated to the location of the CM 11 zip and attempted to flash it .
It goes through the process and at the end it says something like installation successful but the the phone boots into the normal stock firmware.
After reading a ton of material and articles i have discovered that my bootloader may be locked and this is the reason i cannot install CWM and flash custom roms.
In the end i have 3 questions.
Is there curently a solution to install CWM and flash custom roms on phones with locked bootloders ?
Will i be able to update to lollipop via Kies when is released ?
Will i be able to return my phone to its original state so that the lollipop update when it is released wont detect that the phone has been modified ?
Basically i am stuck. I have a rooted phone with void warranty and unable to install roms because the bootloder is locked ??????
I would really apreciate some help because i have run out of options and the frustration has reached stratospheric levels.
Thanks in advance for your help.
You rooted with ODIN and installed both CWM and TWRP .Thats all wrong odin is not root and you don't flash two recovery s .
You say your bootloader is locked = what model phone do you have .
Its reading as fail read the very basics .
Start at the beginning at for that you need to know what model number you have . You then find the correct root for your model and flash a recovery either CWM or TWRP not both .

Untick auto reboot in Odin when you flash recovery then boot to recovery using three button combo stock ROM rewrites stock recovery when it boots iirc

Hi guys i need expert opinions as i am worried about my device. I have S5 Prime G906K with Marshmallow installed. The set is super fine. I wanted to root and flash custom recovery my S5 Prime. I followed the direction of Kyntik (recognized developer of TWRP for my G906 Device). The procedure was successful. Set rooted and recovery installed but two major issues which appeared were:
1) I tried to flash stock Samsung firmware for my model from Sammobile with latest provided ODIN on their site. ODIN failed and i was unable to boot. i tried to boot in recovery but it said UPDATE INTERRUPTED Try Kies etc. I tried again but ODIN Failed when writing System.imge. I tried it around 5 to 6 time and SUDDENLY entire .md5 file was flashed. I dont know what was worng? Have you guys ever faced this issue? if so what was your loophole how you managed to get out of it? Is it me or others have faced it if so tell me the possible reasons where i was wrong? I am asking this because i love trying different roms cooked for our devices but i am scared now.
2) After i rooted and installed twrp on my handset, it always displayed a yellow message on top left corner which said "SET BIT WARRANTY:KERNAL" And when i tried to boot recovery message used to be "SET WARRANTY BIT:RECOVERY.
Whats going on here? I have come back to samsung after 3 years of enjoying LG so i dont much about recent changes. Your opinions will clearify my in :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Thank you but this was my method and as i mentioned i followed the procedure of Kyntik. I had no problem after installing twrp and getting rooted. Only problem i faced was while flashing stock firmware again now m confused was it caused by custom recovery or this was random error. fortunately ODIN flashed my set after trying it 8 times its working perfectly on stock. but i want custom roms thats why m cautious
Hi All,
I suspect somebody could have hacked my phone.
The problem is I had a problem with the phone and I sent it to Samsung Service. They told me I have a custom ROM flashed on the phone. The problem is I didnt flash any ROM on this phone!!! The day I sent it to the service I tried to root the phone and flash the ROM, but I only flashed the TWRP recovery and flashed superSU file. Did not flash any ROM though!!!
In Odin downloading screen it says:
Current Binary: Custom
System Status : Custom
So now the questin is- if I flashed the SuperSU file could have it triggered the current binary and the system status to be changed to Custom? From what I was reading when you root the phone it only changes the System Status. So if the Current Binary says Custom does it mean someone flashed custom ROM on my phone?
Would it be possible that someone sent me the system upgrade which in fact was the customed ROM and I accepted it and flashed? This way someone could have gained an access to my phone?
There is someone I know only on Internet, that person is from Taiwan and I suspect it could have been that person.
Can someone advise if such thing is even possible?
Thank you so much for any help here!!!

Just by flashing twrp you have modified the device and probably tripped know which is their warranty counter
and yes by flashing su tech custom system your device is not hacked it is custom by you
Yesterday I tried root my S8 (SM-G950FD) and I made the mistake of not allowing system modifications before flashing because I misinterpreted a guide. I flashed the no-verity zip and Magisk. The phone booted successfully and magisk was installed. Then I went to reboot into recovery to change some TWRP settings IE: Brightness. Then my phone said "Only officially released binaries are allowed to be flashed." That left me unable to boot my phone and also made it unable to boot into recovery. The only thing I can boot my phone into is download mode. I've tried flashing some stock roms that are 7.0 to remove the prenormal lock but they failed. I happened to make a TWRP backup before flashing but I can't use TWRP because of the official binary stuff. I'm wondering if I use the nand erase all option if that will let me flash the 7.0 stock roms then boot into TWRP and restore my backup or if they is way to convert the backup into something that Odin can flash. Does anybody know any confirmed methods to solve my problem?

You will need to flash the same or higher version of Android to fix official binary error. Use default settings in Odin.
You cannot.flash earlier versions of Android if your bootloader is lower than what is on your phone ( 5th number from right of firmware name ). If in doubt flash the latest version.
Then I went to reboot

Ok so in few minutes from now the rom will be finished downloading. When that is done what version of Odin should I use and what files should place in Odin. I know this may seem stupid to ask but I'm not going to let myself make anymore stupid decisions after not installing the rmm bypass.
Quick Update, the rom finished downloading. I wasn't able to flash it. It gave me the error that the Bootloader had: 4 and the binary had 3... I was able to flash cp by itself tho and that set the system status to samsung official but the binary status is still custom. That made it so my phone only booted into a "Update failed screen use smart switch" screen ( I've tried smart switch before it doesn't detect my device). I can still get it back into recovery and flash old cps to get it to turn off without bootlooping into the smart switch screen. I'm wondering if I flash csc to factory reset if that will help at all. Guys what do I do??
Excuse my language but I ****ING DID IT!!! I don't know this worked but I am going to roughly call my process. So flashing the stock rom initially failed. I flashed then CP which for some reason always works and then AP which began but failed. This set the binary text to "Samsung Official", system status was still ****ed as custom. So I restored the cp and ap(?) from the crgb oreo files posted here. Then I flashed cp that passed, then csc which passed and then tried AP. After some time... It passed. The phone rebooted. The official binary bull**** was gone from the bootscreen and the phone booted into recovery. It installed some sys update stuff up to 30$ then erased some things which took awhile. Then the phone booted into initial setup and I now have ACCESS TO MY PHONE AGAIN!!!
For anyone interested in what FW I flashed PM me.
So i was going to install a custom ROM on my g530h via twrp, and im new to this
I downloaded the file that the app asked me to, and acidentally flashes It as a boot, not as a recovery, now the phone just stays in the download mode, and I cant install the stock ROM with Odin, It gives me a different setor every time
Please help
What file did you actually install like what model was it exactly for ?
Post some screenshots of odin.
try watchin this.. i also have the same problem this week but i find the ways to fix it just flash the stock firmware of g530h xcu using odin so i use the xcu phil firmware which is 4.4.2 and it works.. just flash the stock firmware.. hope it helps...
Do you have any other method because when I rooted the divice I deleted some system files then lost USB connection with pc I tried may way to make it back like downloading the driver from Samsung nothing work and tried different stock rooms and custom ones all of them had the error 7 or md5 file not found by the the same thing happened with the os I made the boot to recovery by accident and lost the system .
