HOW TO GUIDE : TUTORIAL TO FLASH 2.3.6 JVU + ROOT BEFORE INSTALLING CUSTOM ROM
Samsung USB Drivers : DOWNLOAD MINE or LINK 1 : LINK 2
Needed to recognise Phone to your PC ... duh! :silly:
Reboot Computer once installed for changes to take effect :good:
Please do not attempt anything if you don’t know completely what it is.
If any damage occurs to you or your device, I will not be held liable ... you have been warned !!
If you arent sure ... just ask
FLASHING JVU ROM WITH ODIN v1.85
Why ODIN v1.85? ... I have not had any issues with it, plain and simple!
Use ODIN with PIT File
PIT File Incase you need it : DOWNLOAD
*Using PIT File just Tick Re-Partition and put PIT File in PIT ..simple!
ODIN 1.85
ODIN FILES HERE
Turn off your phone and put it in download mode by holding VOL DOWN+MENU+POWER
Do you get the Yellow Triangle?..If so continue..if not do it again...
VIDEO LINK : HOW TO GET INTO RECOVERY / DOWNLOAD MODE
Open ODIN and select 512 .PIT, and put in your files for : CSC, PDA, MODEM
*PIT File isnt always needed to do this only if you get the 3 Red errors*
Plug in Phone with USB Cable To Computer
In ID:COM it should go yellow and you should see ADDED in the message box
Check Re-Partition option and then Cleck PIT button to select: s1_odin_20100xxx.pit file.
Click PDA button and select : CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar
Click PHONE button and select: MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar
Click CSC button and select: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar
When you have all the files needed in ODIN, say JVU Rom as thats what we are using here
Click Start let it Run
Once complete you will see S logo on phone (computer will make a few noises like connect/disconnecting
Unplug the Cable to the Phone
Power Off Phone
Go into Download mode so that we can now root the Phone
Then plug in Phone
Click Reset on ODIN then in PDA put in CF-Root Kernel File for JVU to be Rooted
CF-Root is in ODIN FILES or DOWNLOAD HERE
Then Click START.. should take just a few seconds ....

Now, what I do now is go into :

Enable USB Debugging > Plug in Phone
Window should open up showing your phone Directory..
Copy over your ROM that you want
Shut Down Phone
Reboot into Recovery (Vol UP - Menu - Power)
Wipe the 4 things (probably know these... you should do)
Data / Factory Reset
Cache Partition
Go to Advanced > OK
Dalvik Cache
Battery Stats
Go Back > OK
To move Up or Down > Use the Left Side Volume Rocker Switches with Menu to OK Action
Install your Custom ROM from Zip Card that you want...
Reboot Phone when complete... DONE!
Please Check APN Settings.. for your area after you have done the following steps to give better signal
Sometimes Authentication Type is set to Default..try it at PAP and then Reboot Phone
As some ROMS APN settings are done manually for the user.. so be careful
Rom I am currently using : Blue SAUROM JWB
Hope this helps out a few people as there are quite a few posts opening up with the same problems or issues :good:

Procedure To Update Samsung Galaxy S With Cyanogenmod 10
Device must be running latest Gingerbread 2.3.6 with ROOT to begin .....
Remove KIES completely from Phone and reboot Computer then Install latest Samsung USB Drivers then Reboot Computer...
Ensure that your phone battery is at least 85 percent charged
Cyanogenmod 10 Download
Download Google Apps (Optional)
Connect your device to PC by using the cable.
Enable mass storage mode on it.
Now transfer / copy all the 2 files to your device’s internal SD card.
Ensure that you are not keeping it in deep directory.
Now disconnect the phone from computer.
You then need to enter into recovery mode.
To do so, switch off the device completely, press & hold Volume Up button + Home Button + Power key until recovery mode appears.
After entering into recovery mode, select “install zip from sdcard” & then “choose zip from sdcard“.
Navigate to the ROM file (which you’ve transferred earlier)
Select it & press on ‘Yes‘ to continue. ROM installation process will start.
Wait for the ROM to get installed.
After ROM gets successfully installed, your phone will land in the recovery mode again.
Now select wipe data/factory reset & wipe cache partition to wipe all the data & caches from the phone memory.
The same procedure you have to do for installation Google Apps. (Just don’t do the above step i.e, don’t wipe the data after installations of Gapps).
After installaing both things, now press back button to land in recovery mode.
Select reboot system now from the Recovery mode to Restart the phone.
Usually first boot of the phone takes some time after flashing of new ROM so be patient....
Done!
Issues if you have any :
LOW STORAGE NOTIFICATION : HERE or See this LINK
If the above doesnt help TRY THIS APP
NO MOBILE DATA :
Toggle Flight mode ON/OFF
IMEI Issue :
Flash a stock version of Android for your device: GB 2.3.6 (JVU, or other) that will restore your IMEI
Then you can backup the /EFS folder.
NO 3G AVAILABLE :
The CSC you used is most likely not intended for your area.
This means that the broadband provider settings are not included and
need to be configured manually.
Go to : Settings->Wireless and Networks->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names, press the settings-button and select "New APN"

HI,
thank you for this huge How to!
I have big trouble to update my Device.
It is not possible to get in the download mode. I tried SDFormatter, it crashes every time i connect SI, Samsungs Ex. HDD Formater runs but no effects on the Phone. Odin cant flash anything (maybe of course of download modus).
What do you recommend?
Sys:
WIN XP Pro SP3, Samsung Driver, Kies
Samsung SI, Android 2.3, Vodafone (Germany) Branding, No Simlock, SIM insert (E-Puls, Provider), No Ex SD Card, original Samsung USB-Cable
What are you trying to update to?
Using the Format tool try with USB Debugging ON
>
Uninstall Kies and reboot machine
Use my HOW TO Files ...
Install Samsung USB Drivers to install then reboot computer again..
Open ODIN and Check Re-Partition and put in PIT File
Make sure all 3 are ticked...
Also put in PDA / Modem / CSC press start when phone is connected via Download MODE
Press start....
Then just follow the rest to Root it...
Let me know if this helps
If you are wanting to go to CM 10 or JB Kies is no use anyway...no one uses KIES anymore
Thanks a lot. I pressed volume +... That was my fault.
Now runs CM 10.1 Nighlty with Helly Bean!
Tnak you

Re: [HOW TO GUIDE] ★ Flashing Rom with JVU before Custom ROM + EXTRAS ★
Thanks for the amazingly helpful thread. I had spent amazing amounts of time looking for a JVU bootloader an could not find it. Now i don't need to as your GB odin files fulfilled all my needs.
Now to test out whether your section on drivers will solve my issues of connecting post GB ROMd phone to my computer.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
Your welcome, if you dont need Kies in your computer get rid of it ....
Reboot computer afterwards then Install the Samsung USB Drivers and reboot PC again to take affect....
If Phone doesnt recognise follow the Tutorial on the link if USB not Recognised

Firstly, I want to say ‘thankyou’ to pranaay saini and dr.faramroze. u guys are first man who post topic guide root and build specialy TWRP for Moto E3 Power. And now, I want to share my story about my process ‘rooting Moto E3 Power’ LoL :
*Note:
1/ Im a newbie, not a specialist about android phone or technician mobile. I just a person who curious ‘rooting android’ to make my phone can delete almost factory app not neccesary.LoL. Truly, I want to cheat mobile game =)).
2/ I had successful root HTC One M7 before, so Let’s see me have a little exp for Rooting . Then own the new Moto E3 Power and I want do the same HTC .
*My story:
I bought the new E3 Power on online store and Im going to root it. Unluckily, I forgot to ‘fastboot format userdata’ and this phone gonna ‘bootloop’ :v. I bring it to fix in small repair phone center (I already give them the stock rom), hope they can flash rom stock but they turn my phone into ‘hard bricked mode’ :v, less well they format S/N @@.
That’s a awful time in my life =)), I sent it back to store. Luckily, they accept to fix it cause I just used it for 2 days (actually I told them it was factory error) and maybe they believe it true ‘opsss! So sorry’.
After my phone fixed, I root it again, and this time I did really carefully so ‘Your device has rooted’ Bravo! =)). And ‘Peaceful time’ long last 4months, I just install SDMaid and run Luckypatcher to crack SDMaid FREE up to SDMaid PRO, and used SDMaid to cleanup the phone, then my phone run to error ‘com.android.phone had stoped’, and I also find many ways to fix this problem, almost solution on the internet I have try but it’s not working, the finnally option, I chose to ‘reset phone to factory’ . OOOPS! My phone got ‘Soft bricked’ =.=,unfortunately I had deleted file TWRP backup @@, then I tried to flash stock rom thought TWRP but it error =.=. At this moment, I think ‘prehap I bring it to store fix it again?’ . NOPE! Im looking on the internet to find out solution to fix it (just a few days before I write this topic), finally only way to fix that is ‘SP Flash Tool’ =)), and it work! .
*So it’s all my story when I come to E3 GOD Power =)). Sorry if it so drammatic and bad english :”>. U guys can skip that and go to Main Problem here:
== How to root Moto E3 Power (XT1706) ==
Plz follow step by step if u are new guys like me xD! (Picture guide bellow)

Awesome post brother! I only wish I had simply read this post before messing up so much with my phone. Actually, I was messing with some magisk module (edxposed) whick bricked my device and got me stuck at a bootloop and with no recovery partition at all. (It erased my TWRP). So I used the sp flash tool and formatted the whole flash (at that time, I hadn't read this post of yours). Then I flashed my entire firmware back via the sp flash tool. So I thought that now my problem was fixed. But when I switched on my phone I saw my phone's IMEI Number gone! And the sim not working and showing invalid IMEI message. So I tried to find a fix on the internet and I found 2 solutions. First was using an app which requires the phone to support some mtk engineering mode. I followed the instructions and realised that maybe our phone Moto E3 Power doesn't support this mode. So I switched to the second solution, which required root access. So then I set off for rooting my newly unbricked phone. But I again did some mistakes:
1.) Allowed usb debugging and OEM unlocking in my phone's developer options in settings.
2.) I installed minimal ADB v1.4.3 on a windows 10 computer. Checked my phone's connection with the PC via ADB command adb devices. It worked showing some error initially (daemon not started.... Starting daemon...) and then showing some hex code signifying my device's successful connection with the PC.
3.) Used ADB command adb reboot bootloader to boot into fastboot mode. It worked too.
3.) Used fastboot command fastboot devices to check if my device is still being recognised as connected to the pc. Here came an error (the command didn't return any hex code like the adb command adb devices did. So I googled a solution which involves updating the "Android ADB interface" to "Android Bootloader interface" in the "Android device" submenu of the "Device Manager" window of the "control panel" of the pc, by updating its drivers using the "latest windows usb drivers" 8mb file which could be found very easily on the internet (searching solution for fastboot device drivers update on Google). {*Note: If you hadn't installed beforehand, any adb and fastboot drivers at all, then you will see "Other devices" submenu instead of the "Android device" submenu in the device manager window.
Also, you compulsively need to be in fastboot mode with your device attached to pc, in order to see this "other devices" submenu.} So now the fastboot devices command started working by showing the hex code like adb devices command did.
4.) Used fastboot oem unlock command to unlock the phone's bootloader. Pressed the volume up button of my phone as instructed by the warning message on my phone's screen. Unlock flow started in the minimal adb window in my pc. Finished successfully within 9-13 seconds. Another mistake now, after unlocking the bootloader, I forgot to format userdata.. Actually I didn't know about the fastboot format userdata command. I thought the fastboot -w reboot is the only way to format userdata (which wasn't working for me). Unaware of the fact that now I was going to experience a bootloop during rebooting my phone, I continued with the further steps.
5.) Used fastboot flash recovery recovery.img command to flash the unofficial twrp img which I had already placed in the minimal adb folder and renamed to recovery.img I used unofficial twrp v3.1.1 (by moderator) [which was working perfectly earlier on my phone] {link at bottom}. Successfully finished this step too. [You can use either of the two twrp: Dr. Faramroze (link provided by op) or moderator (link provided by me). Both are working fine]
6.) Used the fastboot reboot command (although it never works for me). It shows finished in the minimal adb cmd screen but the phone doesn't reboot. So I manually unplugged the device. Removed and reinserted the battery.
7.) Now rebooted to recovery screen and found the unofficial twrp successfully installed. [ Warning: After the 6th step, don't reboot your phone normally. Instead, boot into the fastboot window [hold power + vol. up] and select the boot into recovery option. This is required only for the first boot up process or else if you do a normal boot during the first boot, the stock recovery replaces our recently flashed custom recovery..
8.) Upon entering the twrp recovery during the first boot, I installed the magisk v19.3 zip I had in my external SD card. It's not necessary to root your phone right now, you may even do it later by simply rebooting from within the twrp, and later on entering recovery after your phone is all set and working and when you're free from other hassles. But I went for rooting during the first boot. And encountered an error something like: "Cannot mount data(0mb)" at the second last line. So, I could not root my phone. So I decided to root it later on and currently just have it switched on. So, I went for the reboot option in twrp.
9.) My phone started rebooting and got stuck at the boot screen with the tag Device unlocked at the lower left corner (indicating unlocked bootloader). But this was something familiar to me, I had already dealt with this error the previous time I rooted my phone. The solution was very simple. I just had to flash a no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file {included along with the twrp link} using the twrp recovery and then my device would boot properly, as it did the last time.
10.) I flashed the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file from the twrp and got so many red line errors during the flash. (This didn't happen the last time). Every error had the same words, "cannot mount data (0mb)". So I went back to try rebooting again.
11.) Started rebooting again. This time the device didn't get stuck at boot screen, rather it went into a bootloop, rebooting again and again. Now maybe the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file did its job and my device got free from the stuck at boot screen problem but simultaneously got caught by the bootloop error probably created due to not formatting the userdata after unlocking the bootloader. Or maybe the "cannot mount data (0mb) just ruined up my phone. Whatever the cause be, I just went for reflashing the entire firmware via the sp flash tool and temporarily forgetting all the bootloader unlocking, custom recovery, rooting, etc and live with an invalid IMEI phone without a working sim, until I find a solution on the internet.
12.) And then, I ended up here on this thread leaving my experience, and learning my mistakes from the OP's post. Very soon I will depart for the cyber cafe to try again without any mistakes this time.
At last thanks for this awesome thread.
And yes here's the link for the unofficial twrp 3.1.1 (by moderator) & the no verity-otp-encrypt.zip file:

Search Google for "Moto E3 power firmware flash file" and you will come across websites providing the flash file. The file would have a name like "Motorola_Moto_E3_Power_XT1706_MT6735M_S135_161108_6.0.1.zip". The "S135" over here is the firmware version and will vary upon the version uploaded by the site. The latest version as of today is S152_190315. I somehow managed to download a S151 file and I forgot where I downloaded it from. But you can still go for older firmware versions, and then when you're done with all the flashing and rooting and all that and your phone starts up without any error, you can go for OTA updates from within the settings>about phone>system update.

S151 is newest (flash file available for download) for XT1706. [Actually S152 is latest but it's not yet available for download] So you succeeded maybe because you used the older version. Cause a guy commented that he couldn't root the newer versions but could root the older versions.

Is it necessary to uncheck preload? If yes, I think you should highlight it. Anyway, I didn't uncheck preload and the flash successfully worked for me? So what difference does it count for? Please do notify us of its significance.

I didn't remove my battery, sim or microsd card and everything worked fine for me. Also, I didn't connect my device to pc after pressing the download button in the sp flash tool. Here's what I did instead:
I kept the sp flash tool ready with all steps. Only pressing the download button remaining. Then I connected my device to the pc. As soon as you hear the device connected sound, press the download button. And the flashing process will start. If you get late in pressing the download button, you will hear another sound of device disconnected. Then you'll have to remove the usb from the device and replug it and go for trying again pressing the download button as soon as you hear the device connected sound.
