Have You Updated Your Phone Even Once

If Yes)-Then its a common problem after updating.You can quickly Install CWM Again By 2nd Method OR You can try once again With Odin or 3rd Method

If No)-Then this is strange. plz Post your Firmware Version, and try once again with odin.

There is one more solution.Take a nandroid backup of current then flash Original Firmware again and WITHOUT installing any UPDATE flash CWM via odin. Then restore Cwm and Voila u r Good To Go

Pm me if problem Persists

If you downloaded from the Samsung website ... then you are right. You'll probably know if you right or wrong when you connect to odin while in downloading mode (1st method) and I guess it will most likely work in sha Allah. :)

Questions on versions

@ thecoreguy

Hallo

I just purchased a 'Samsung Galaxy Core I8262D dual' and before to use it - I want immediately make a backup with CWM Recovery.

Is this installation procedure suitable for an original (virgin) device - or is 'root' required? (In all methods?)

In method 1 the 'CWM'-link will download a "CWM-recovery-6.0.3.3-I9300.tar". The name suggests a' Galaxy S3 I9300 '. Is this compatible with the 'Samsung Galaxy Core I8262D dual' ?

Confusing is, that in the second method a "CWM-GT-I8262.zip" is used!? Is this also a version 6.0.3.3?

Which File (which method) is best for the 'Samsung Galaxy Core I8262D dual' ?

Thank you very much for your efforts :good::good::good:

and thank you in advance for a reply.

Impossible to install recovery or roms!

Hi everybody! My problem is a bit complicated.

First, I rooted the phone, then I tried to backup everything from my Huawei Ascend G300 (ICS) using Titanium Backup.

When I recovered all the backup info and apps into the Core and restarted the phone, it stopped working.

It boots (sometimes) normally, then it shows the lock screen, I try to unlock and it crashes, it won't respond.

I tried to install CW recovery, but I couldn't with the first method.

I can't use other methods because my phone won't let me do anything in the OS itself!!

The only thing I can do is enter download mode and sync with Odin.

I tried flashing it using one of the roms posted in the other thread, but I couldn't, the cell screen says something like authentication failed (sorry I don't remember now).

It seems to have been flashed the new rom, and it starts for a few seconds showing me a constant error message that includes ".acore"

Then it will restart, and restart, and restart...

Please tell me if it is a problem with the rom I downloaded, I'm now downloading another (stock).

Thanks!

How can I fix it without having to flash the rom again?

i have a samsung galaxy core I8260

Yesterday I followed this tutorial, did not read well the part that said it was for the I8262 version ...

I tried the 1st & the 2nd method os the post.

Then, as I could not start CWM (power + home + volume UP) android decided to restore factory data (factory reset) from android preferences.

And surprise! CWM worked !! I did a backup, then install 2 roms for galaxy I8262 core (I made that mistake... my phone is I8260), but did not initiate android (infinite loop of reboots ...) then restore my backup and is still with the loop of restarts ... .

How I can fix it? Thanks brothers :good:

1.

Make sure your device is powered on and running normally,

2.

Make sure you have rooted your device and that you have all of the necessary permissions in order to manipulate system files.

3.

In the root file system go to \system\etc

4.

Find the file named install-recovery.sh and either rename it or, as I did, delete it.

That’s all there is to it.

problem fix

your three methods do work...but what's happening is after installing cwm successfully by any of the three methods, os is re installing the stock recovery by removing that cwm instantaneously after reboot....so to stop the os from re installing stock recovery we need to rename or delete the stock recovery file in the system files (system go to \system\etc \install-recovery.sh) before we do any thing....and after renaming it, we then can follow any of the three methods...i followed the first method and it worked on my gt-i8262 core dual..

Samsung double sim GT-i8262

Hello community.

I tried to install KitKat on my mobile and managed, by installing a recovery mode that supported the sd card installation.

I used philz_touch_6.22.1-arubaslim.tar

KitKat after 2 hours stopped working and am trying now to use ODIN to go back to old OTA firmware, but cannot manage.

Am not sure I am using the right firmware

It looks like I cannot use Philz any longer also.

Am also out of KIES .

Any idea how can I get my mobile working, with factory OTA or whatever firmware at this stage

thank you

regards
