OK, Please ATTENTION!!!

You must absolutley know what you did! Dont use it for your regular phone, as it is a pre-Alpha relese, and it is clear, if it was able to flash and start, that some stuff will not work atm (for example wifi because its excluded). It is just a starting point, if someone is willing to help me to check if it ist startable or not!

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!!!!!!

You must know what you have to do if the phone gets bricked (Odin stuff, stock rom and so on!!)

This pre alpha contains only the plain SlimBean-Part (4.2).

All your data will be lost surely, so this is only for poeple they did not dayly use the phone!

Dont ask me if it is bricked, I repeat!!

But for those wich calls the devil a Bambi, here is the link:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347824305

Make a full wipe, format the system-partition, and flash it via philz.

If you try it, then tell me what you see. Unfortunatly, I was not able to try it atm

And again: Think what you do!! I'm not kidding!!

Can I ask you what sources and kernel have you used and if there is the risk to hard brick (such as flashing a I8190 ROM) the phone flashing this?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] SolarPlexus:
Used sources of slimrom jb4.2 with blobs from stock, no kernel and no recovery included. I expect only maybe soft brick.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gabrius99:
I flashed it, following those step:

1) Wipe everything

2)Mount system

3) re-wipe system

4) re-mount system

5) flash the ROM (obviously without gapps)

6) reboot

But I'm stuck at boot logo, no boot animation appear.

So for now no slim :(

However recovery flashed the ROM so fastly, that I think that something went wrong there

[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gabrius99:
No error, but the flashing lasted after about 10 second

Sent from my GT-P3110
[Galaxy S III Mini General] SolarPlexus:
10 seconds should be ok for flashing.

Its a mess that it is up to now not possible to get a bootlog :( Anyhow, if the point stuck so early, I have maybe to check the entrypoints, and the given bootlogos... Maybe more this evening...

Thanks up to now Gabrius99 !

Hi, [MENTION=3470903]SolarPlexus[/MENTION]

Sorry if I didn't respond, but I was a little busy, but don't think I haven't seen your posts.

Now, I'm trying to install your ROM, to see if it's working. Thank you for the work!

[MENTION=3470903]SolarPlexus[/MENTION], as what [MENTION=6307885]Gabrius99[/MENTION] said, ROM stuck at Samsung logo, not bootanim. He's correct.

I tried now to install the ROM, and I couldn't be able to see the bootanim. I don't know what could be the problem. Maybe you can verify this evening.

AromaFM should work even if I have installed stock or this ROM.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] SolarPlexus:
You must install the aroma FM manually ! Download it, and store it on the sdcard in the mentioned directory... The philz recovery did not contain it...

Hey everyone, by mistake i deleted all system apps...so now it wont boot lol,stupid mistake, but idc i can fix it, the point is, i got some thaughts for the future rom that i might do" ported from 12.1 cyanogenmod" sry i cant tell my exact sources till now till it works,first thing is removing about everything except playstore, radio....remove unecessary files since cyanogenmode keeps unecessary files when u install it, and might remove heavy boot animation since it takes alot of cpu usage.

And, once i was flashing also using philz and it only taked 10 seconds, i believe this is an error, as it also wasnt wiping data,i had to format and reflash more than once till it worked, or i probably didnt mount everything and wasted my time lol.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gabrius99:
Are you porting a cm 12.1 for our phone? However this recovery can't flash ROM up to 4.3 because this philz hasn't selinux support. But i didn't understand if the ROM is working or not :confused:

Greets
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Lord_of_Death:
Actually its not reall cm 12.1, i think it will be more like the themed roms thatcwe did till now. The rom is still under construction. Yes it is for the i8200.

Wich WIN7 USB driver to connect i8200N to ODIN

Hi guys,

I can't get my phone to connect to ODIN . The COM field will stay white and won't change its colour.

When I connect my phone, which is in download mode, to my computer, windows tries to update the device drivers. It will not find the appropriate driver and disconnect the device finally. Very annoying. :(

I have installed Samsung-Usb-Driver-v1.5.55.0.exe

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much,

Gazorbeam

+++++++++

I got it to work :)

Sorry. I seemed to have used the wrong ODIN version. I have used the older ODIN v4.43 instead of the Odin3 v3.09

But now the next question: In which field do I have to put the PhilzTouch_recovery.tar.md5.zip?

On the older Odin version I had sections like PDA and Phone and so on.

On this Odin version all I have got is: BL, AP, CP, CSC

Which of the above should i choose for Philz Touch recovery?

Thank you in advance,

Gazorbeam
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jorjee:
AP is the same as PDA

CP is Phone
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gazorbeam:
Philz Touch recovery wont install

Sorry guys for bothering you again,

I ran ODIN3 and put the recovery.tar.md5 in the AP box.

I ticked the box left from the AP button and started the process .

I waited for the process to pass. But still did not get the PhilsTouch. It remains all stock :(

This is what I got in the message window of ODIN

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> recovery.tar.md5 is valid.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] SolarPlexus:
You have to use the Odin 3.09! The others won't work at all. Reboot it with direct with pushing louder+middlebutton method. Then it should be there. Except the you have a new bootloader which ****edup the recovery flash with stock one...

Not sure. This is something what could happens on Samsung devices, because they like to block more and more, but did not really take care for a device and update it correctly. Retry the flash, maybe it was not completely done... From where you get the recovery-file?

I have got all files out of the same thread.

What I want to do is to install Philz Recovery and then go to the golden S5 style ROM which is mentioned under 4. in the same thread.

I would like to have a phone without bloatware. For my purpose a debloated custom ROM would just be fine. But I don't even manage to install the new recovery. :crying:

BTW.:

In download mode the phone shows: H/W Version 0.3

In recovery mode it shows: Android system recovery <3e>

Untick auto-reboot (only auto-reboot!!!!)

Hi,

I've (quickly) read this thread but I don't find solution.

My device (GT-i8200N) can't install binaries (Super SU).

I've rooted with KingRoot. After, I launch Super Sume Pro, but it's same.

Impossible to install binaries.

After reset factory, I install SuperSU (zip file) with TWRP.

But always the same... I can't run binaries update.

Please, help me !

Thanks a lot
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gabrius99:
I suggest you to reflash firmware stock. Then do this:

- Reboot download

- untick "auto-reboot" from Odin

- flash philz touch

- remove battery

- now reboot to recovery by 3 button combo

- flash supersu.zip

- reboot

Thank you Gabrius, it works !!!

I really appreciate your help.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] PaulRichter:
Does this mean I dont have to root before I install Philz ?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Le Dam:
No, you must install Philz before flash SuperSU (=root).

If you follow exactly Gabrius instructions, it work.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Le Dam:
Big problem !

My phone reboot each time in english (my configuration = french).

EDIT : ok after new flash

Work also with simple TWRP (not Philz)
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Lord_of_Death:
nope no need to do that.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gabrius99:
You don't need root to install recovery:

When you flash recovery, if you reboot to system, Samsung system replace the custom recovery with his recovery and you don't find Philz anymore. But if you don't boot to system but directly to recovery, Samsung system doesn't activate and you boot in Philz. Then superSu zip disable that thing and recovery won't be replaced.

Greets
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gazorbeam:
:crying:

This phone is a pain ....

First of all let me thank Gabrius

Following your instruction I was able to install Philz Touch. Hooray :laugh:

But Philz Touch could not mount the external SD :(

I put the SuperSu update zip in the internal SD. Booted into the recovery and ended up stock :crying:

I installed Phliz Touch again. Ran the update zip for SuperSU from the internal SD

Rebooted the phone. The anchor app (vroot) is gone. Kinguser is still there.

Started SuperSU. Update did not run through. :(

Link2sd can not mount the 2nd partition (Ext3).

I don't know what else I should do.

Tomorrow I will start from scratch. Wipe everything off the phone. Back to factory settings and then start all over again.

Keep your fingers crossed.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] Le Dam:
[MENTION=5622860]Gazorbeam[/MENTION] : why use Vroot or Kingroot ?

If you start from zero, you only need :

- Odin

- your_stock_rom.tar.md5 (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/)

- recovery.tar.md5 (Philz or other... I first use Philz but don't work. I use safe TWRP - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ojsodqjxv4lrt4y/recovery.tar.md5 (1).zip?dl=0)

- SuperSU.zip (UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.69.zip - http://download.chainfire.eu/365/SuperSU)

And follow Gabrius instructions ;

- Reboot download

- untick "auto-reboot" from Odin

- flash philz touch

- remove battery

- now reboot to recovery by 3 button combo

- flash supersu.zip

- reboot

Fyi, I also wipe partitions before flash

Note for "safe" TWRP (I read that in first thread but I can't say if it's real) :

Attention with TWRP-Recovery. Data-Partition restore seems to be not right. At the moment please did not use it, because it can delete your data-partition. We have to investigate it further! Other partitions seems to be ok, but its a good Idea if you copy your important data also manually to a other storage (like PC) while you trying things of this thread.

Somebody have restore problems with this recovery ?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] PaulRichter:
If you try to restore data partition on twrp the screen will turn pink, data will erased and twrp starts again itself.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Le Dam:
Wow ! I just change Philz because my smartphone reboot always on this recovery !

Now, my phone is full customised... what can I do ?

Can I re-flash other recovery (Philz again ?) and keep all my configuration ?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Gazorbeam:
Yes, you are right of cause. Now I know it :o

My plan was just to get root access, install titanium backup to get rid of some bloatware and to install link2sd in order to get more system memory.

I followed this tutorial for the rooting, but never managed to change to SuperSU.

I will restore the phone to factory settings, install the stock rom from sammobile and start all over again.

Can anybody please provide a link to the SuperSu.zip?

All I find is just the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.69.zip Or is this the one I need to use?

Has anybody installed link2sd on an i8200N? Does it work well with the phone?

What is the best format for 2nd partition? Ext2, Ext3 or Ext4?

Thank you for your help,

Gazorbeam
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Le Dam:
Yes, SuperSU is UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.69.zip (not only update).

I can't answer to your other questions ;)
