There are two easy ways:
1st Method
1. Install a app named ROOT MANAGER from play store (PLEASE NOTE THIS IS FOR ROOTED DEVICE ONLY)
2. If you have already rooted, after installing that app it will ask to install a custom recovery ie. CMW (ClockworkMod Recovery)
3. Before selecting CMW, ROM manager app will ask your device model select accurately and proceed to Download CMW and install it. It will ask for a reboot
4. You are Done
2nd Method: (You must have a Computer)
1. Try to Download the zip file of CMW of your device (zip file differs for device to device, So choose carefully your model)
2. Extract that zip
3. Go to Download mode (Power+ Volume down)
4. Install Software named ODIN v1.85
5. Open Odin and Connect your device to computer.
6. Flash the extracted file using Odin.
7. Done mate :thumbup:

there is no app called root manager it is rom manager and rom manager installs cwm only for a supported no of devices so you cant have cwm with rom manager on all phones
for the question you can try mediate cwm as it is a mediate processor phone search in xda

[Q] Pushing a zip file-need help please

Hi! So I've sucessfully rooted my phone using the SuperOneClick or whatever its called...I need help backing up my rom. Already tried to follow these instructions;
G. Flash Custom Recovery:
1) Push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.6-galaxyace.img to your device using "adb push recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img /tmp/" command
2) Turn off your phone
3) Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
4) Login to your device over "adb shell"
5) Mount /system using "mount /dev/block/stl12 /system" command
6) Flash CWM recovery using "flash_image recoveryonly /tmp/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img" command
7) Umount /system using "umount /system" command
8) Reboot your device using "reboot recovery" command to test your new CWM recovery
9) Reboot your device
This is great and all...except for the fact that this keeps happening;
C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb push recovery-cloc kwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img /tmp/ cannot stat 'recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxyace.img'
I've already moved the entire zip and folder into platform-tools. What is it I do now?
Would just like to know before I commence with downloading more apps.
Thank you in advanced,
WarDerp
Help please
Why are you using DB shell method? Just put zip on Sd card and install via recovery. androidflip.com/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-v5-on-galaxy-ace-s5830/

Thanks. But which Zip? the one found on that website? I have clockwork but it doesn't recognize my phone model. Do I install that .apk included on? Some of these instructions are pretty vague to be honest. There's another version of that tutorial that goes more in depth but its for an older version. I don't really want to flash anything without knowing what I'm doing..
When you say 'you have clockwork', that's a very vague statement. Please elaborate.
The zip file on that website provides a version of clockwork that will 1. provide a backup of your rom and 2. works for SG Ace. Which is what you want right? If not don't read any further and do some more searching around!
So let's go over what the website says. Download the zip file to your computer, paste it to your SD Card (anywhere on your SD Card). When it says 'paste the zip file as it is', it doesn't mean 'paste the .apk included in the zip file', it means 'paste the zip file'...
Disconnect your phone from your computer. Turn your phone off. Reboot into recovery by holding down the middle button and then pressing the power button. That will bring up 'recovery mode'. In recovery mode you will see the option 'apply update from SD Card', select that option with the middle key. It will then show you a list, in which will appear the .zip file you 'pasted into the SD Card'. Go to it and press the middle button. It will then install Clockwork Mod Recovery on your phone.
This should appear as an app, with the Clockwork bowler hat symbol. In there you can then press the 'create backup' and it will automatically reboot into recovery and show you the process of copying all the files into the 'clockwork recovery backup' folder that will have been created on your SD Card.
Is there anything vague about that?

No need to get upset, but respect for helping me. So, in short, this will allow Clockwork Rom Manager to detect my model of phone and then allow me to back up my current rom, right?
I'm running Clockwork Rom Manager 5.0.0.3. What is the .apk he's including? Its not my fault if I have concerns..

What nonsense! I just want to do something so simple. And you keep saying not to use ROM Manager...but you recommend Clockwork Manager.
Sigh...

But I'm not looking to modify it until I back up my ROM
*facepalm* Ohh spacecaker.....
Look OP , you cannot use ROM Manager because it bricks your phone .
You have to flash ClockworkMod Recovery through stock recovery (it's a zip file)

Ok, how do I do this? And from the beginning please
Step by step
Much thanks thus far!

No there is a miscommunication here. ROM MANAGER will brick your phone but CLOCKWORK RECOVERY is fine. They are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS.
CLOCKWORK RECOVERY can be got FROM THE LINK I PROVIDED and installed via the instructions I repeated here.
Edit: For the record the link I provided will install CWM Manager v1.80 AS WELL AS Recovery. This is not the same app as ROM Manager and it simply provides a user interface that takes you directly to Recovery Mode and create backups without having to go into recovery mode manually.

Edit: But if you have Rom Manager for the love of God delete it first, before you do anything else. It will brick your phone!!!!!

Possibly soft brick S3??? Noob needs help!

First of all I've read some posts but haven't found what I need. I know you may read this kinda post all the time from unexperienced people but we are all learning. This is the deal, I was trying to flash Cyanogenmod 10.1 in my s3, I saved the rom file and the gapps file in my sd card. After I do all the whipping (data+cache+delviks cache) and go to find the zip files they are not in .zip format so de recovery mode doesn't recognize the files as such. So I just went back and tryed to reboot the phone again but it gets stucked in the Samsung Gt I9300 image. I know this may be really simple to fix but I'm a noob! Btw the phone does enter both, recovery and download mode. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
"after I did all the whipping" LOL
what do you mean, they're no in the zip format? did you unzip them?
sd card
push the file into ur sd card either throw recovery or by sd card reader and boot into recovery then chose the zip from ur sd card and install

Thanks for your answer. The thing is that the files were not in the zip format and I couldn't flash them in the recovery mode. If I compress them into zip format would it work??

I realy messed up... Coby Kyros Mid1060

Hey!
A friend of mine has this new tablet - Coby Kyros Mid1060 - and ask me to install Gapps and what was missing...
The thing is... I accidentally renamed the 'boot proper' file original without copying the new one...
So, as you can imagine, i can't boot the tablet, it stucks on 'android' logo...
I've been searching for different ways to reach the file but i can't...
Before doing that renaming operation i managed to root the device and i can get to the recovery menu...
Is there a way to fix this problem?
I appreciate all your advices.
Thank you.
Same Problem
I'm having a very similar problem with that device.
I've deleted the build.prop file while trying to rename it.
Could anyone send me a copy of that file? I'm trying to replace it with an update.zip

Hello.
I'm having the same problem ... Already have some solution?
This worked for me
I made the update.zip file that you could find in attach.
It replaces a build.prop file that will allow a factory reset.
The device will reboot again.
1. copy the file to an microSD
2. plug the microSD in the tablet
3. turn the device on in recovery mode ("volume down" and "on" )
4. select "apply update from sdcard"
5. select the "update-signed.zip" file
6. reboot you device
hope this helps
If you are stuck on the bootlogo, you can always edit/add/replace files in your device. No need for flashable zips.

I don't know... Don't have it..., but I can tell you that the USB debugging was disabled.
android commander is not an app its a windows program. Try connectingyour device to your PC and check android commander. If you have an insecure kernel , you can access the root of your device and make any changes you want.

nevertheless what I did worked for me and is a practical way for people with less skills or knowledge to solve their problem.
With that in mind I posted it.
I tried lots of thins, including connecting the computer to the tablet... nothing worked, but this did. My tablet is working now.
Original rom?
Hi there, is this the original rom file for the MID1060? My tablet is having some problems with the positioning sensor and i need to send it back to warranty, but i've modified it so it can have googleappz on it and i can't restore. Do you think that wth this i can solve it?

[Guide]How to Root + CWM Recovery, NOOB Friendly[Updated]

PLEASE HIT THE THANKS BUTTON!!!
Intro:
Even though there a lot of articles on how to root most of them are not detailed and still many of you out there who have still not rooted your phone this guide will guide you.
I've gone through lots of articles on how to install CWM recovery , How to Root Canvas HD but almost all of them are not noob friendly and you just don't understand them. As a new user i myself took days to get acclimatized to rooting.........
This is a noob friendly guide to root and install CWM recovery both on 4.1 and 4.2 versions.Everyone can go through this!
Sources & Thanks.
1) Thanks to XDA i've taken a lot of resources from XDA.
2) Thanks to developer of motochopper.
3) Thanks to developer of mobile uncle tools.
4) Thanks to micromax for a beautiful device.
5) Taken help from google.
First what is rooting?
Rooting is a process allowing users of Smartphone’s, tablets, and other devices running the Android operating system to attain privileged control (known as “root access”) within Android’s subsystem. Basically rooting is performed to overcome the limitation that wireless service providers and hardware manufacture of android phone put on some devices. If your android mobile is rooted that means you are the SUPER USER on your android cell phone and you get ability to customize or replace system applications. This little word rooting provide you power to run specialized apps that require administrator-level permissions and perform another operation which are inaccessible to a normal android.
I think this should be more than enough and you would have already spent your time on this!! Hope so
Now what is CWM recovery?
All of the Android devices consign with a recovery assuage that is a basic partition on the device's internal memory and also can be booted into it. The stock recovery of almost all of the Android devices provide a few basic yet useful options that allow us to factory reset our device, clearly it is cache partitioning, and bring back its operating system using an official ROM in zip format, but that is the only thing you can do with it. This is the reason where a custom recovery becomes handy.
A custom Android recovery initially replaces all the stock recovery with the one that lets you to do all that you can with the stock recovery, plus a overabundance of options that give us a lot more control on the device. With a custom recovery, you can install official and unofficial ROMs as well as other updates also including hacks, themes, kernels.Using zip files, wipe not just user data but every standard partition on our device, ascend the storage card for USB mass storage access without leaving recovery, partition your SD card, wipe dalvik cache and battery status, fix the permissions, perform, manage and restore backups, and so on.
This is where CWM recovery comes in our aid!!
There is also another very popular recovery named TWRP which many developers still recommend but still a major drawback is that many ROM developers still prefer CWM so i say go with CWM!

Hey lets see how it goes... thanx for replying....
i have 2 questions for you ,
1) do i need back up my device i mean the stock rom or something? if yes then how ?
2) about the unrooting just in case if there is a goof up and i unroot it will it work properly ? as mostly micromax phones have a lot of problem and i am old user of micromax android phones so every now and then i have to run to the service center for one reason or the other. So warranty is there , i have read some where there are some clock timer issues on phones which enables the service center guys to differentiate the rooted phone ? is it true? kindly guide.
i m still going with the process you listed and will let you know how it goes for me.

Welcome,
For your first question,
At this stage you will not be able to take the backup of the entire ROM since as you don't have CWM. But in case if you're already rooted then download titanium backup pro and use the backup all feature and in case if you've not rooted then follow this process. Backup all your contacts to your gmail account using the sync option. Then backup messages and call log if you want through some backup app like snap pea. Then download app uninstaller from playstore a free app and backup all the apks ( second or third option don't remember exactly) then backup this file to your PC ( the file name is android it will have the folder data inside it and sometimes another folder obb copy both).
SO by now you have a backup.
Now coming to your second question,
Yes the unrooting will work without any problem You just have to go to the settings and click full unroot and its over! You're worried too much i think no just do full unroot and they wont be able to identify it if you still have doubt then after unrooting you can factory reset your phone and then there is almost no chance the customer care guys find it out.

No after you click on recovery update it will just flash the new recovery and in this case CWM recovery it will not make any backup or so.
But since you're rooted( if i remember properly) then use titanium backup pro to backup whatever you need. But at thi moment you cant backup the entire rom as you've still not flashed CWM!

[Q] Huawei G700 EMUI 1.8 B124

Hello
here i am posting here because i cant post on Miscellaneous Android Development , how ever i think i post there before while working on B5512
I Just got new G700 it came with B115 middle east channel , phone is good but as a start is there is a update i must ask my self is root ready , and CWM for sure so i start the digging
@chamaruco thank you for your great thread which saved and helped many people
now i got a file and i think you were looking for it ""G700-U10_V100R001C00B124CUSTC432D001_Firmware_Portugal_Channel-Others_4.2.1_EMUI 1.8_05021LMW.zip"" it contain usb upgrade and sd upgrade with drv and flash tool
i notice EMUI 1.8 not 1.6 which i saw for example a permission manager with it on P6 is that here in that rom too ?
is that rom improved than mine b115 phone is good for first look but
(in B115)
1-camera quality is strange i dont mean bad but it look very strange it is like very poor on quality
2-in call volume is too low in my opinion all " in test mode"
Question now did any one get that update "EMUI 1.8 B124" can tell is there is any improvements ?!
Question am i able to flash CWM image directly with flash tool to save some annoying procedures ?!
a member here provide flasher and cwm.img and orginal recovery.img
i did not work with the phone yet need to shift data from old phone remove ext2 part and prepare for change , and feeling lost here
want to strike it all once
i will upload "EMUI 1.8 B124" soon as it came from a private server
any suggestions are welcome
When you install 1.8 you will notice there is only a tap error from uploader..it is a 1.6 emui. That's all.
Hello

But my mobile does not boot into CWM recovery mode as i have seen in my previous Qmobile A8 it always restarts in the defualt recovery mode which only give options to "1. reboot, 2. update from SDcard, 3. update from cashe, 4. wipe/delete user data and wipe/delete cache and in the last there is a calibarate TP, AND OFF COURSE THESE ALL ARE THE ANDROID BUILTIN RECOVERY STEPS NOT OF THE CWM
And off course there is not any file or folder named update.app in the downloaded .zip/extracted file. "as i have mentioned above the folder contains a folder named META-INF and three img files named as boot cust and system while a .bin file named logo too.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP.

So after I select the Reworked scatter file there is only the sec_ro partition checked to flash. So after flashing it do I now select the previous scatter file and then flash everything (including preloader)?
