backup device s5 Neo

Hi,
i was looking a way to backup my full device s5 Neo that i purchased 3 days ago. I already did it abd rooted my S2.
I have latest Samsung driver however Odin does not backup but flash to device new ROM.
i would like to backup device before rooting it. To do that under S2 i had to root my phone first and to install CWM, only after i was able to backup full device....so still the same thing under S5 Neo ?
i checked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699648 and it seems that first header is confusing...at lesat it confused me that we can full backup device with new Odin before rooting device.
S5 Neo already include a CWM version but without recovery/backup items in the menu
this is the android system recovery v: 3e
thx
it's really so cool and useful
thanks sooooo much

You can try twrp recovery
On this link https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://cwm-twrp-android.biz/download/samsung-galaxy-s5-neo.html&ved=0CDMQFjAEahUKEwiagtzI9fbHAhUBFxQKHTPTAN8&usg=AFQjCNEv9n9PathRFvgpndflxBLuh4R3Vg&sig2=DeZL3JwswIOYGFORDzff7Q
Hi,
i already read this article, however to download the CWM you need to give them your mobile phone number so sorry that's only a ad page nothing more.
Moreover, officially from Google, android 6 is still AFAIK in beta mode.

SM-J500F/DS cannot boot

Hi to all,
had root this device on 6.0.1 with TWRP. Now I needed a full reset due to a Bluetooth problem to check if its root/software related. BUT on my mistake I erased EVERYTHING through TWRP (Dalvik/ART Cahe,System,Data,Internal Storage,Cache, Micro SD, Android Secure, USB-OTG)
Tried to install custom rom Aospextended but I don't know the how to and I am lost in forums.. the phone doesn't boot... after zip file installation the screen fades to somewhat yellowish like LCD problem... I can still access TWRP..
p.s. I am an iPhone guy and just tried to fix this for my son... hope for your understanding for probably asking something very common..!
ANY HELP WOULD BE greatly appreciated even to get back to stock rom
Many thanks in advance!

You must go to section Samsung j5 2015 you will find all you need, since restoring to stock, rooting, installing the correct TWRP for your device....and more.
You NEED to READ because too much information for one post, but this is the correct place for you.
Pay attention the correct files TWRP for 601 because there are TWRP for lollipop devices, and when choosing ROMs you MUST downgrade your firmware to Lollipop, that's the reason for artifacts and greenish screen because of incompatibility of TWRP and there are ROMs that you can install with twrp601, others need booltloader and twrp lollipop. Hope you are nota blind anymore

I had the same problem when flashing Lineage 14.1 on my phone (J500M), screen fadding with a green-yellowish color and no boot. That happened because I was trying to flash the custon Rom with the wrong base. I was using 6.0 before flashing and Lineage requires you start from 5.1.
All I need to do was search for my device on sammobile.com , get the right stock firmware and use Odin to flash the rom on my device. From there I was able to flash TWRP again and install Lineage correctly.

You have two solutions, you can restore your phone STOCK ROM with Samsung Smart Switch or downgrade to Lollypop firmware and install any custom rom trough TWRP.
Restore to STOCK:
Use Samsung Smart Switch, see howto here
Downgrade to Lollipop:
Install only Bootloader/Modem [6.0.1/5.1.1]BOOTLOADER AND MODEM FOR J500xx [Downgrade more easy] (Collection)
Downgrade to Lollypop (full ROM) (Tutorial) Upgrade J5 (2015) to 6.0 and Downgrade to 5.1.1 + Rooting

K4 note boot loop

Please help. I have k4 note A7010a48 which has 16GB and 3GB updated to S219. I had rooted my device with TWRP and SuperSU 2.78. I wanted to update my device to latest version which is s232. Hence after suggestion and searching through the internet, i recently flashed stock recovery.img whose size was 13MB via SP Flash Tool. Now my phone is constantly going through boot loop. though i am able to go to stock recovery i dont have any idea how to remove my boot loop. i tired searching in XDA forums too but i could only see that it has stock rom of A7010 only. please help. My computer's OS is windows 10. if it may help. also i think that the drivers that i have for this device isnt functioning properly. i have a TWRP backup of my phone also. i would be very grateful if anyone could kindly help me get through this mess.
flash it with spflashtool to the current official rom, should fix your device, though it might erase your imei numbers which you'll need to restore incase that happens...
good luck!

soft briced p10 lite, Help Please..

Hi
I got my self in quite a pickle here..
so advice or help is very welcomed.
I own a Huawei P10 lite,
with a software version WAS-LX1AC900B049
First off I unlocked the phone, then flashed TWRP recovery, and thus far everything was ok
I wanted to install Lineage 14.1 OS, and I failed because my version of the phone is not supported..
but during attempt installation of Lineage OS , I deleted data, system, dalvik, and cashe..
I did not make a backup!!! (major mistake, I know..)
so effectively I deleted my OS :-/ ..
but it isn’t over jet..
because I could not find a stock rom, namely WAS-LX1AC900B049 version
I thought of debranding my phone to Orange, namely WAS-LX1AC109B110 because stock roms for Orange are available on the net.
so.. using TWRP I replaced oeminfo file..
(this time making a backup of oeminfo)
but once I downloaded Orange stock rom, put it on the
sdcard in /dload folder and entered download mode on the phone, nothing happened, update failed
but.. also changing oeminfo resets the system so I guess that turned off USB debugging..
so now the TWRP is not available because of the system reset, and in the fastboot and rescue mode , adb program from Windows, does not detect device..
so..
it seems I have 3 options..
1. somehow install Orange stock rom
2. make fastboot and rescue mode to work properly so I can reinstall TWRP and go further from there
3. find original stock rom WAS-LX1AC900B049, may be it will work
by the way erecovery does not work, it conects to the wifi, starts serching, and then fails
Help please..
I unbricked the phone
for anyone interested I used adb to unlock the phone in fastboot and rescue mode..
the phone was showing me a message that it was unlocked but it was not
once unlocked previously installed TWRP booted immediately, so from there I installed Lineage 14.1 by HassanMirza01 and it works great
Happy that you fixed your problem but how did adb detected your device as you mentioned it didn't at the first place?
Planning on going back to stock and I think the same trouble would happen for me too.
oH MY GOD!

Huawei P9 Lite VNS-L31 Completly Bricked

Hi, I'm in a sticky situation
I downloaded a custom recovery (revolution custom recovery) and wanted to install lineage 14.1 on my phone. I installed everything properly and still my phone doesn't get past the startup animation. After that I thought it was because of the recovery so I installed I TWRP (which should be compatible) through the existing recovery. And now. I'm stuck between loading screens and don't know what to do. I managed to get to the erecovery of EMUI and charged up my phone. Since I don't want to break anything else I'm asking for help.
Change data partition to ext4.
How yo recover
Flash sotck EMUI rom from consumer.huawei.com using 3 buttons method. You'll be able yo use your phone, but I think Google services doesn't work (in my case) so try again yo flash lineageOS. Good luck

Hello dude, ok you got L31 model phone, but, except for Revolution recovery,
you did not give any more info about the firmware you had before flash custom recovery.
Neither info you wrote about lineageOS and other TWRP you tried to flash.
No one can help you without these basically info, so post here...
Best Regards
