The problem is that you've flashed a rom that is not Loki patched. Flash one that is and the message will abate.

Essentially the same thing except mine is red

Well if he can't get past the boot screen of the unauthorized software he can't flash anything unless he does it in recovery. The only other option besides recovery is to Stock Restore.

This is one of the first phones ive done rooting myself
And I dont think I will ever quit now
BUT
How do I do that. Flash one Loki Patched

Check out the official Roms list in general section. That can give you the steps to do a wipe, but if you can get into recovery, just install one of those roms

So I have the Recovery screen and its allowing me to get ZIPS from my EXT sd card , but currently I only have omega
This is one of my first times with any of this so step by step may be needed
and what if I just go to restore.. Yes or No

You can do the no wipe restore. Or download a new ROM into the micro SD if you have an SD adapter and slot for it.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

How do I find out which ROMS wll actually work for this phone
I cant believe omega didnt ..

Any of them on the Roms list will work.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

So lastly ..
Where do I find this rom list. is it suppose to be in recovery because all I can find is the rom I placed

No you will have to download it. The list is just a list of Roms that are available for download.
Look in the general section

I appreciate all your help and will thank every post on this thread from you
I hate feeling like I dont know what im doing but I really dont . Im still learning.
Can you send me a link and ill look there and what ROMS do you suggest personally

You should just be able to download a new kernel and your ROM will work....

Is that possible to do in RECOVERY

no... you have to somehow get the kernel into your phone or microSD Card

You can adb sideload ROMs or kernels from within recovery so the zips don't have to be on your phone as long as you have access to a computer and adb.

Rom manager update issue

I am having an issue with the rom manager update that happened today. When I try to backup my rom, it rebooted into recovery mode but it errors out and will not let me backup my rom. Could anyone suggest a fix for this issue? Thanks in advance.

as stated a couple hundred times around this forum section:
dont use rom manager
I'm not sure how far this warning extends as I'm new to android with this phone, but if you see the sticky at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288112
Big red letters say not to use ROM Manager.
That said, if you open ROM manager, choose "Backup ROM". It will reboot and give you the screen with the green droid and triangle exclamation point. At that screen, press power button and it gives you the CWM Recovery menu. Use volume buttons to select "backup and restore", then home button to choose it. Then home again to pick "backup" on the next screen.
Once done you can go back to the main screen and choose to reboot from there.
Edit: Looks like PirateGhost beat me to it.

It was working fine for backup process, I am not using for rom downloads and updates. And I don't care how many times it has been stated to not use it, it was working fine for backups, and all I was asking for was if anyone can help, and clearly you can't.

so use the backup/restore feature in CWM!
problem solved!
i dont understand how hard it is to comprehend......if ROM manager is giving everyone problems, DONT USE IT. if it was working for you then it stopped, DONT USE IT
pretty cut and dry....
until there is proper implementation of ROM manager, DONT USE IT
re: rom manager
Here is a app which can replace Rom Manager until they update it to be
completely compatible with our new phones.
Download link: http://www.wuala.com/jgmoreno75/Sams....5.apk?lang=en
It does basically all functions of rom manager and many more which rom
manager cannot do. About the only thing I cannot do is to download roms.
Check it out...
Also PLEASE if you are a NOOB reading this please don't post anything pertaining to Rom Manager.
It's just a waste of time since it's not needed at all for doing anything that we do here and there is
NOTHING in Rom Manager which is a requirement for flashing, backing up, restoring, installing or
anything else having to do or pertaining to our Samsung i777 phones..
So let's all just forget that rom manager even exists for now

cant root my samsung galaxy showcase sch-i500

Hello i am new to this website and i was wanting to know how to root my samsung galaxy showcase sch-i500 from c-spire wireless.I had my phone rooted before i upgraded to gingerbread the other day.I have found some directions on the website but i guess i am not doing them right.I downloaded the gingerbreak from chasefire and i scaned it with my phone but it is showing as wall papper on my applications any help would be appreciated and sorry for asking this question if it has already been asked thanks
Try this app
This is the easiest one I'd used to root my Fascinate I500, But remember to manually restart your phone by removing your battery and putting it back in. For some reason it's not doing that at the end of the process. Good luck.

Rooting i500
Did you ever get root enabled, I imagine you tried superoneclick and it failed. If you didn't get root I can help. It requires cwm and a root-package zip that you flash with cwm.
Problems rooting
I think it may have worked for the original poster but i am having BIG problems rooting my phone from cspire. The one click does not work and i have tried three other ways to do it. I am able to get recovery console access but past that nothing has happened. I followed the instructions at galay forums.net (wont let me post link but when i got to the part where i install the "su-x.x.x.x.zip" file i get the message "installed successfully. enjoy!" but when i reboot to try to go to the next step it always reboots into the recovery. Please help!

thats the exact setup I havei just got this phone asa replacement, did you use Odin to flash recovery then flash zip I linked up?I can send you what ever file you need to complete it(recovery root zip etc.) just lemme know
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Yes I used the recovery flash (red clockwork mod) to flash the zip you uploaded for me. It says that it installs and that there are no problems but when I back out and reboot it will just boot back into clockwork rather than into the android os. The closest I've had it to booting right was using the su.x.x.x.x.zip file but when that was used my phone just boot looped (samsung logo boot up bid sanding logo for about two minutes reboot rinse and repeat)

[Q] Nabi 2 Root Problems

Hi
I would have posted this in the Nabi 2 root thread, but i don't have enough posts to do so.
I have tried and tried to root both my girls Nabi 2 tablets and i get errors with both of them, i have rooted a few Android devices before and find it easy, but i just cant get these to Nabi 2's done.
Using jmztaylor's method i get this error:

If i try to install root or gapps via recovery, i get this error:
I cannot see or understand what i am doing wrong, i rooted my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 at Christmas and everything went fine, im using the same computer to do thes Nabi 2's but just errors all the time.
My most recent update on them was December i think, is it possible Nabi may have blocked the method to do this between the root being released and Christmas ?

No i just have the normal Nabi 2, im thinking it was the update i did on Christmas day, its above the version that everyone is rooting their Nabi 2's on.
EDIT
Thanks to your link, i found this thread

It seemed to root fine, i even have SuperSU on the Nabi, but it wont install gapps, so i tried installing the Market independently, it installs but wont run, lol its frustrating as i normally find these things easy, now i feel a bit stupid for not being able to get it sorted.

not sure if you tried this version of gapps ?
I just go in to Twrp in choose install

I have tried at least 5x's on 2 seperate wifi networks to update and it fails every time. I was rooted prior. Now unrooted and bootloader is locked. I checked all files and there is no trace of any recoveries in my files..anyone know what I can do? Even if I can stop the prompt to update would be great.

Youre still on mdk which is good. If you lost root youll have to reroot. Rename sdm.apk to sdm.apk.bak or delete if you so choose and itll stop the notifications. Quite a few threads on this as well :thumbup:

There's a root method, but it's a gimped one. Only update if flashing recoveries, roms, kernels, etc is unimportant to you.

I am fine with stock rom and root.
BTW, I found the issue....
I had updated the sound files to boost the level outputs in system/etc/snd_soc_msm folder. When I was using the recovery method to install the update stored in /cache/fota that's when the error presented itself (instead of just "update failed"). As a good boy, I kept the original files and just pasted them over the modded ones. The update is flashing as we speak. As long as I have root file access and maybe tethering, then I'm good.
I WOULD like to tinker with ROMs, but, there isn't time for that anyways.

small problem

Good day, first of all greetings to the forum, my name is isaac and I hope this forum to share experiences and solutions to ongoing issues, and also to resolve some that I have like this.
for two days, try to root my HTC One M7 ATT with a rom of this same page, persisamente this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522530
but apparently I did it wrong, because after my phone would not boot android, the problem is I run out of another rom to admit you, because as you know has no SD card slot, and does not detect it as USB storage, so if I can I can I get the recovery installed TWRP 2.5.0.0, my phone is S-ON, no more to say, I hope you can help me,
Thank you very much for your attention, greetings!
ok buddy , first of all install TWRP 2.6.3.3 you can go under their website and download it. Flash the recovery by using fastload the instructions are plain and simple http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/164 if you need further assistance let us know.
Second, I would suggest to download android revolution HD 41.0 since you have an AT&T device with sense this Rom will work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023
Once TWRP is up and running sideload or push the ARHD into the phone and flash it. You should be up and running.
The reason that you are having a bootloop is because the Rom you are trying to flash is a Google play edition and you will be only able to do this once you have S-OFF. Now to root the device I suggest Downloading SuperSU v1.89 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
Any questions let us know.
