root and CWM with official status - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey all , I just have realized that the only way to root your device and remain in official status is pre rooted rom ( which is full of problems ) , I have read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147852 this guide and after reading the comments I think that flashing CWM via odin makes your status costum .. am I right??
Well, if Iam right I have an idea to fix this problem and hopefully it will work
1st Flash official rooted rom with odin .. this will propably wont work fine due to CSC and BBV changes but at least can boot so just download terminal emulator and flash CWM recovery using dd command ( this wont increase CBC or make ur status costum )
2nd back to official rom ( that wont mess with the CWM right? )
3rd download a flashble root via CWM (may increase CBC but can fix with triangle away app )
4th deodox rom via flashble mod via CMW
5th flash theme via CWM
hopefully those steps wont change your status to costum and any increase in CBC can be solved by triangle away right ??
anyone can confirm?
at the end sry for all this questions

dear tys0n thx for replying
your second way is similar to my way but the only diffrence is my way seems more safe because the device status wont change from costum to official it will be official all the time as i think
right??

yes but it makes no sense because with Triangel Away you can reset custom binary count and get back offical at the end of every way ...

SAMSUNG sent me my phone back

guys samsung sent me my phone back as the custom binary download was on 11
now i have it on 0
could i send it back to them again ?
issue is EMMC Bug.
phone is Stuck at flashing Factoryfs.IMG in ODIN .
Are you able to reboot into.recovery? If yes then check you have stock recovery, if not try flashing stock kernel (it wont raise counter), and even on factoryfs stuck you may b able to.flash kernel.
And then send to service centre(if available different one)

what about theys traces left on my internal memory ?
As such they should not concern what you store on storage. But anyway if you want to remove it use aroma file manager, which works with recovery, use that cwm.zip to execute aroma (which is flashble zip)
Note: here i m advising cwm.zip b'oz device is bricked already n no other alternate available, n i have seen file on picture, no one should follow my advise to use cwm.zip, whose note is working. Otherwise it can brick device.

still under construction. as of right now you have to build it yourself, although nrvate may be releasing something depending on how stable it can become.

Hey you need to get TWRP installed and then you should be good from there. Find the TWRP forum back a page then follow the instructions there. If you have never flashed a recovery before there are really good instructions in the CWMR thread. You might try flashing CWM first if you are a noob (I used CWMR for a while and it's a great recovery too) . Basically you need to get odin, and the adb drivers for your device. Turn your device off and put it in download mode (Power button and both volumes, then release power once it vibrates). Have odin ready with your custom recovery in the PDA slot. Once your device plugged in and in d/l mode odin will recognize it (if not you did something wrong).

Depends on what you mean by stable. While most features seemed to work okay, for me video play-back was horrible. Videos skipped and lagged. Since video playback is a major thing for me it's a deal breaker as it stands. I hope it in the future it gets fixed. Other than that though.. all was good with it

If he has cw recovery there isnt any need to use odin, odin is basically a last resort but yeah it can be done.

Charge battery, reboot to recovery, wipe data x3, wipe cache and dalvik cache... Reboot.
Wait for some time as 1st boot takes time.
I think nobody understand me. I did 3 wipes and then i flash it by cwm then when it says the installation has been complete i reboot my phone and when i did that ,nophing happend and i just wait at last 10 min for reboot and when it didn`t work (my mean is: it just stucked on galaxy ace logo)and when the logo was previewing i heard a noise from phone but at the display something were`nt happend i was fully charged the phone before .
if there is a way please tell because it`s the only android 4.1 rom for my phone .
and even if you know a rom which supports android 4 or upper please reply me.tnx and sorry for why ?you know that(english)

Download the lastest kernal from the thread you got your rom from and start the whole process again when its finished the install dont reboot your phone go to install zip from sd card select the kernal and press install when its finished reboot your phone then it should work
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
After flashing the rom, if your phone doesn't boot, take off the battery, put it back, go to recovery & do a factory reset & also wipe dalvic cache. Try booting then...

Rom manager

I heard from a thread that using rom manager bricks this phone if you have a partitition and I'd bought the premium version before partitioning my sd card, just want to ask, is this true?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda app-developers app
Why would u use that - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942957 !!!
Go on CWM, its healthier for our Ace!
It has nothing to do with having a partition or not.
It bricks the phone anyways. Better remove that app, its dangerous if you don't know what functions of it can be used safely.
Oh, so the whole thing bricks it? Why is that, also I am using cwm anyways

Mostly the motherboard i think, people reported that they had to get new a motherboard installed in order to unbrick it.
Hmm, that's confused me, I thought it would have broke it system wise. I know how to flash, root, etc, but I'm not exactly sure how they all work, but I thought that flashing just overwrit the system+os. So two questions, when you root/flash does that interact with the hardware in anyway and how?

Try flashing CWM from rom manager and you will see if and how it interacts
P.S Its a joke, don't actually try that.

Rom manager ... flashes new recovery ... with wrong mounting points ... making your phone useless it will be like having the light switch of your kitchen in your bed room and your bed room light switch on your attic ... know what i mean? Nothing will work !! Since the phone will change the mp to points that dont exist on your phone.
Just flash cwm from stock recovery or from odin and you'll be ok
