2nd METHOD

If the above Method didn't work for you because some people are experiencing problems with the above method for the latest firmware so you can try this method which shall work.

Things Required

1)A Rooted Galaxy Core

2)CWM.zip File(In Second Post)

3)Uni-init APK(In Second Post)

4)A Mind

Let's Begin

1) Download and install BusyBox.

- Open and install BusyBox.

- Done!

2) Copy »Uni-init v1.0.apk« to internal memory and install Universal Init.d.

- Please see HERE the entire instructions.

3) Download and install Android Terminal Emulator.

- Open Terminal and type following commands:

PLEASE TYPE THE COMMANDS CAREFULLY OTHERWISE YOU CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE

su
cd /storage/sdcard0
sh cwm.sh

5) Press and hold »Volume up« and »Home«, then press »Power« while "Volume up" and "Home" are held.

- Use »Volume up« and »Volume down« to navigate items and »Power« to select.

3rd Method

First Download Flash_zip from the second post and unzip it in the ADB Folder so the folder where adb files are present you have to unzip there. Now Also Download the recovery.img file from the second post and again place it where the adb files are there.So,The 'flash_image' is within the attached zip file! Use the file within the zip file, NOT the zip file itself.Put the recovery image and the flash_image on the root of your C drive.

Let's Begin

(make sure you're in the command prompt and have changed directory to where the adb file is)

adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/

adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/

adb shell

su

mount -o remount, rw /system

cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin

cd /system/bin

chmod 777 flash_image

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
