Tired of searching for a complete Guide to Flash JellyBlastv3 on your GT-S5360?

Well, I have something for you::::

Read On.... :)

Warning: The Below Steps are only for Samsung Galaxy Y, GT-S5360

Performing any of the steps shall Void the Warranty of Your Device.

I am not responsible for any damage you cause to your Device or emotional loss or anything.

You are solely responsible for you actions.

The Following procedure has been tested by me and it is working correctly.

​

Warnings and Important Tips:

1. The process may and will erase all your data present on the device. Better backup your contacts, Messages, Calendar entries, Notes Etc. You may use Super Backup, Go Backup or SMS Backup & Restore. There are several other apps in the Market. I would recommend to backup using multiple apps.

2. A Computer should be within reach with internet. Also have a USB Cable. Wi-Fi is recommended.

3. Make sure the system is running Stock ROM and Stock Kernel.

4. Also make sure you are running latest version of android available. On Galaxy Y, it is 2.3.6

5. If not, you can update, by going into settings>about phone>software update. Sign in with Samsung Account. 6. Before proceeding further, make sure that the phone is fully charged (Recommended 70% at least). High Chances of damage are there if the device runs out of juice during flashing.

7. Proceed with caution. Avoid confusion. Follow the steps! Never Jump to next step before completing first!

8. Within Procedures if you think the battery is not enough (>70%), you can charge it before proceeding to next procedure. The Phone can’t be charged within an ongoing procedure.

9. Enable the USB Debugging option. Go to Settings>Development>USB Debugging. Check it every time.

10. It took me considerable time to type the detailed steps to make it easy for even a beginner. Be Generous.

DO NOT FORGET TO PRESS THE THANKS BUTTON! :laugh:

I.	Root​

Rooting is a process by which you can get root access or administrator privileges to your Android phone and can flash tweaks, custom ROMs, custom kernels, install additional applications which requires root, use firewall etc.

Root will void your phone’s warranty but it doesn’t matter you can get it back! (Google unroot)

1. Download the the update.zip file to your SD Card (not in any folder). I have attached it with the post.

2. Switch off your phone & boot into recovery mode.

3. Press Vol Up + Power Key + Home button together at the same time to boot in recovery mode.

4. Touch screen is disabled here.

5. Use volume keys for scrolling & home button for selection.

6. Select Apply update from SD card.

7. Select update.zip (which you have downloaded).

8. When it shows Installed from SD Card complete written.

9. Select reboot system now.

10. Your phone will restart & first boot may take 5 minutes. (Mine took a few seconds!)

11. Check for an application Superuser and open it.

12. Go to Menu > Preferences > SU Binaries> Update binaries.

13. SU Binaries will update. (You need active data connection or Wi-Fi)

14. When it get updated, restart your phone.

You’re done! Your phone is now rooted.

Warning: Do not delete Superuser or you will lose your root!

II. Flash ClockWorkMod​

ClockWorkMod is a Custom Recovery which lets you Flash Custom ROM, Kernels etc.

Note: This is temporary. Every time you need CWM, you have to flash it again. (For your convinience, keep it in the SD)

Instructions:

1. Enable USB Debugging by going to Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development - Enable USB Debugging.

2. Download the CWM Recovery.zip file and Place that file on the root directory of your SD card. (Attached)

3. Switch off your phone .Then boot into recovery mode, (hold Volume up button + Home button + Power button).

6. Select "apply update from SD card ", find the zip file you copied to your SD card earlier.

Once done, it will give you the option to reboot your phone, reboot and you're done!

You got CWM installed, you can now flash custom ROMs. :)

III. Backup Stock ROM
​

In case, if anything happens to your device while flashing Custom ROM, backup of Stock ROM serves as a contingency plan. The Backup can be used to recover damaged device via Odin. (Now don’t ask me what’s Odin) :p

It can also be used to return to the Original State if ever you wish to revert back.

1.	Boot into CWM by Flashing CWM again.

2.	Go to Backup/Restore

3.	Select Backup Current ROM. It will take a while and then it’s Done! The size of the Backup File depends upon the no. of apps installed. Generally should be around 200-400 MB.

VI. Partitioning SD Card​

On SGY GT-S5360, the Internal Memory is too low (190 MB). Every time you try to update the apps or try to Install new apps, you get the annoying message saying “ Internal Memory Full, delete some apps”. This is where Link2sd comes to the rescue!

There are also Similar apps available on the Market, but here we will be using Link2SD.

There are several ways to partition SD card, but here we will be using CWM.

Note: You need a rooted device, well doesn’t matter we have already rooted.

Note: This method will erase all your data on SD, so better backup it

1.	Boot into CWM recovery.

4.	Choose the partition size. (1024 recommended)

5.	Choose the Swap size. (0 M)

6.	Select “Yes”. It will take a while and then you are done! Reboot your phone.

7.	Open Link2SD (or Download it from the Market). A pop-up will appear, choose ext3 (ext4 is fastest but ext3 is most compatible). Then Reboot.

8.	Open Link2SD, Go to settings , then tick Auto Link.

9.	Below in Auto Link settings click on all the three- Link App file, Link Dalvik Cache, Link library files.

10.	Also set the Default location to external.

11.	You are done. You can also link some of the existing user apps to the partition.

Now all your user applications will be linked to the SD Card, saving your precious internal memory space
