Did you reboot your phone after rooting?
You might have to remove your battery too, not necessary, but better
And SuperSU is superuser.SuperSU is made by another dev, that's all

You unfortunately cannot use link2sd with stock ROM
The other thing is that even a swap file is a bad idea on the 5839I
If it is on stock ROM , bricked one already.
Dont think I will worry about it again but you should try root validator instead of
Root checker I think some apps only like superuser and dont always recognize
SuperSU you can get a flashable zip from chainfire's website if the zip at the start
Of thread wont work, easiest way to check for root is probably to try and install
Busybox by the way,
One more thing, there is a file In system/etc that prevents apps to sd by
Deleting the apps to sd files at every reboot, could this be your problem?
Samsung were a bit naughty about things when they set the
firmware up
You can delete it at your own risk, did it myself last time around but to be honest I have some fifty odd
apps installed and after that the phone lacks internal memory anyway, samsung
Havent actually done too bad a job once you get rid of the added bloatware
I hope this info helps, and on stock ROM you also have to reflash CWM everytime you wish to backup or restore through ROM manager,
Good luck sounds like you might just be frustrated over nothing, lets hope so.
Ki113Ro
have realized since last post on this subject that as long as you don't try and instal apps 2sd script you CAN install link2sd and its working i also now realize that current kernel which is called Redbend UA has ext3/ext4 type support and since succesful install of link2sd have freed up maybe 40mb of internal memory.
I also wou.ld recommend Imbawind Adrenaline boost script v3 search xda for link to download. next thing is to deodex ROM so i can apply new jelly bean style i think. I have debranded ROM after CWM backup so can restore if needed .
Thanks to all the developers and people brave enough to risk bricking there devices because of all these people devices are getting better and
thanks to samsung and htc etc for listening to the consumer and making sure the changes others make are streamlined into there ROMs the new galaxy is much quicker than the old one Thank you.
Thanks have to go also to Google and everyone connected with the Android OS
Open source rocks big time.

1 yes flashing to root device with this file will trigger the flash counter which will indicate unofficial fw is installed after that samsung wont let you get ota updates
2 no but triangle away needs root to work
3 triangle away will reset the flash counter so you can get ota updates unfortunately on our device the counter goes back to 'unofficial' after a reboot

And now my Galaxy Mega 5.8 (GT-I9152) is rooted.
100% working.
Now we just need CyanogenMod !
Official ROM is useless.
Even Macromax can move stuff to SD.
No USB Mass storage.
I know there are lots of softwares for all this, but one CyanogenMod can solve all the issues.

I see my friend, how will I know if it is the proper custom roon that I'm going to use? how I can prevent my phone of getting brick?
Just type "list of custom roms for **your phone model** " in google.
This list varies for each and every model,brand,motherboard specifications etc.
Be carefull. I hard bricked my phone once. Now its not even switching on. I have thrown it in dust-bin,it became useless

Now if there are no instructions, you usually just have to flash it and then reboot.

As of now Sir i have a problem with my phone because i didnt know that it is not right to transfer files from my phone storage to sd card like system files, im now in android system recovery and dont know what to do with my phone, i hope some one will help me in this trouble cause i dont know if this is the situation they called brick. thanks for your reply, i will gladly appreciate it.
This is the whole story regards my current problem
early this morning as i open my phone, i used to think that if i will transfer all files from my phone "system" in my 8g sd card it will be helpfull to lessen the burden of my processing ram that is 489mb available. I attemp to use root explorer to transfer the system files on my sd cards. i cut it in the root explorer option and paste it in my sd cards that is 8g. seconds passed it transfer files but as minute goes by it stock up and dont run anymore. i used to press the reboot system which is power botton + up volume and hold it in a couple of seconds. and then i stock in the system recovery and dont know what to do next. everytime i install some zip. files it is written that E: SIGNATURE VERIFICATION FAILED INSTALLATION ABORTED. thats the whole story. hope someone will help me to fix this issue.thanks for your time reading my message.
Buddy!! Never do that...it may spoil your rom
Just go to play store and download link2sd.apk
As simple as that

Thanks a lot my friend, anyway how i can install link2sd.apk if i cant run my phone because it is in the system recovery mode? will it run in the system recovery mode if i will download it in my sd card? thanks again
No..it wont work like that buddy!
&
Sorry man! Your stock rom was collapsed.....i got the same situation(error signature) with my samsung galaxy tab. Then i came to know that it was soft bricked.
Then i kept my phone in download mode and flashed stock rom(available in official samsung site) through Odin software using my laptop. Then is worked like before
So now what you do is......
Open google..and search for "How to soft unbrick **your phone model** "
You may find something which is helpfull.

Grand quattro stock recovery dont allow us to perform such actions. You have to flash cwm using odin. The detailed process is mentioned here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2494471
And I dont know about add bocker,removing bloatwares etc. But u can perform such actions with root uninstaller, titanium backup, adaway etc etc. I have rooted my phone just to use gl2sd soft. Actually am pretty happy with stock rom and recovery. After getting all the conception I will use those things. If you are having less knowledge then dont do anything till u know what u r doing. And obviously take backup of efs folder, its really important if u are planning to play wid ur firmware or recovery..

Bro I have downloaded adaway and its working too. Is adaway good or not? And if we update host file manually using root explorer, is there will be any difference? And is there any security risk in adaway app?
