Step by Step Guide to root via Odin 3.07 !!!

Necessary Downloads:

1. CWM Recovery

2. SuperSU

3. Odin 3.07

Procedure:

Step 1

: Extract the Odin 3.07 and CWM Recovery files using winrar/7zip/winzip or any other extracting tool.

Step 2

: Copy the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.75.zip file to the SD card of your phone.

Step 3

: Switch off the Galaxy Star Pro. Then boot the device into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power buttons together until a construction Android robot icon with a warning triangle appears on screen. Now press the Volume Up button to enter Download Mode.

Step 4

: Run Odin on the computer as an Administrator.

Step 5

: Connect the Galaxy Star Pro to the computer using USB cable while it is in the Download Mode. Wait until Odin detects the device. When the device is connected successfully, the ID: COM box will turn to light blue with the COM port number. Additionally, the successful connected will be indicated by a message saying Added.

Note: If the Added message does not appear, then try re-install USB drivers or changing the port on the computer.

Step 6

: In Odin, click the PDA button and select the recovery.tar.md5 file. Verify that Auto Reboot and Re-Partition options are NOT selected.

Step 7

: Double-check and click Start button in Odin. The installation process will now begin.

Step 9

: Reboot the device into CWM Recovery by pressing and holding; first Power button (for 2 seconds) then Home + Volume buttons together. leave Power and Home button when Logo appears but keep holding Volume up button.

Step 10

: In CWM Recovery, select "install zip from sdcard" and then select "choose zip from sdcard". Now, navigate to the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.75.zip file that you copied earlier and confirm the installation by selecting Yes.

Step 11

: Once installation process is completed, return to main recovery menu and select "reboot system now".

Did anybody get success in rooting this phone ?

I got my first android phone Samsung star pro S7262 yesterday. I like to install some apps include busybox, viper4android. And free some RAM from bloatapps. We can't get Samsung note. So we got this. Most of the devs fixing and developing on other phones. If any dev can standup and say I can help in making our device root than that would be great. We will give you helping hands in testing the you develop and need to test on our device if you need. I don't a Laptop or Desktop PC so I can't but others will help you.

[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
You are also facing same problem I too can't root with this old files I first updated my phone with samsung updates and than tried to root. But rooting files are not working. :(
[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:
Those still stuck. Try below files

Try with these Files below. May this work for you all. Best of luck. (Procedure is same)

First

Install samsung s7262 drivers.

1. Download the SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe file.

This Link: (h ttp://d-h.st/KYc)

2. Click install the drivers file and follow through the installation process completely

3. Reboot your computer (optional).

Second

1. Extract "Odin_3.09.zip". Extract "recovery.tar.zip". Both in same folder.

2. Run "Odin_3.09". (Odin window will show an Added!! message in bottom left box.)

Now you connect your phone through USB with PC in "Download Mode"

(Press Vol. Down + Home + Power buttons together. Then press Vol. up to enter into download mode)

3. UnCheck "Auto Reboot" and leave "F. Reset Time" checked. (Everything else unchecked)

4. Check (Select) "AP". Select "recovery.tar.md5" (file you extracted from zip).

5. Press start

Wait!! :fingers-crossed:

(Do not press anything until 'Odin' says PASS/FAIL in green/red color on top left corner) it takes about 2 minutes or so or maybe less.

6. PASS (in green), Then Disconnect.

{{If say FAIL (in red) :eek:, try again or restart PC or check drivers}}

7. Now remove battery and shut it down.

8. Press Power (for a second) + Vol. Up + Home buttons together. Leave all three buttons when Samsung logo appears.

Now you enter into CWM recovery :D

Try this "Best of Luck". :good:
[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
This guide is better than other guides available on internet ;P

I have downloaded these files from other sites and tried this files they are the same. I followed the steps but when I press volume up + home + power key to enter in CWM recovery my display goes white and than I have to restart my phone red ! marks show before display turn to white.

If you have your phone with you. Try this. Flash you phone with stock ROM and than update through samsung update from your phone itself. Than try to use this files you posted. It will not work. :fingers-crossed:

Here is the screenshot of my phone shows the baseband version and kernel version than I currently have in my phone.
[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:
Red mark (!) shows on top left corner at samsung logo screen. Thats not an issue.

I tried it, what u said. Everything works Ok. and in screenshot everything is similar.

I would suggest u to try the recovery/all files I provided and try again. That white screen problem should not happen.
[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
Does your screen turns white?
[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:
No. no white screen on my phone.

you try flashing recovery again.

and Do not restart phone after flashing. just remove battery, shut it, put back battery in and try entering CWM recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
Yes followed all the steps correctly. Does recovery files need unlocked bootloader? Because I even try running adb on my phone to unlock bootloader but it stucks at samsung logo.
[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:
I have locked bootloader. Don't unlock it. why to mess with bootloader?, when this works on locked bootloader.
[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
Do you have other method to root my phone?
[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:

[General Questions and Answers] Gagan Kabir:
Everything looks fine. I have done everything all over again on my s7262. No white screen shows. there must b something else, which i can't figure out. let's see if others have same problems.
[General Questions and Answers] updown69:
I done a factory data reset and cleared cache partition from stock recovery and than removed battery and immediately flash recovery through odin again but still there is no way I can enter to CWM.

Just tested this and happy to report that it works perfectly! Here's how it went.

First, go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and search for s7262, download the kernel for YOUR COUNTRY and flash it as PDA through Odin.

Make sure you have copied the superuser.zip to your SDcard before you begin the following.

- Flash the recovery as PDA (I unchecked the autoboot, just to keep everything in control)

- Remove data cable

- Remove battery

- Go in download again, and flash the BOOT file as BOOTLOADER (This time, checked the autoboot)

- Phone starts in CWM recovery

- Flash the SU and hit the thanks button!

hey guys..

i bought a buddies note 2 last night, and he had some weird rom on it. i formatted the hard drive, and attempted to install a new rom using odin.

i received a couple error messages in odin. first i got:

first i got: Can't open the serial(COM) port.

then i got: <ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.

a quick google searche attributed those to kies running in the background, so i closed keys, and ended all related processes.

i restarted odin and tried again, but got "Can't open the serial(COM) port." message again.

some answers i found on google were to restart the phone and restart odin. i restarted my phone. only now, it looks like the phone is bricked with the following error message: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recover mode in Kies & try again.

I loaded up Kies, but the phone is not being detected by my computer, and it just hangs on "Connecting"

I tried switching the cable into another USB port, and the computer DID detect the phone momentarily, but only for that split second. Kies just tried to connect again, but remained in "Connecting", and then ultimately failed, recommending i reboot my device.

am i ****ed here? what can i do?
