no need that all, you just need to install kies pc, it will give you samsung phone driver, odin pc, a custom cwm recovery tar format. and custom roms

most files i mention there you can find on this thread except for kies pc

then how to reboot to recovery mode?

haiz. now more

PRESS volume up + home button + power button, when the s3m word come out release the power button till recovery mode ready

download mode for odin, press volume down + home button + power button, when the menu come out, release all button and press volume up to enter download mode

lol. why we can enter but other ppls cant using the 3 button combo. ok thx man.

we can but, the trick is different, on old phone we need to hold that 3 button, s3m we need to release the power button after the 1st s3m word appeared, that only the difference

btw. kies pc is for what actually? when do i use it?

official Samsung PC-phone software for update, transfer media and back up

so it is actually optional software for rooting la?

ok. im gonna try flashing enox now.

bro @jakgelap in odin to flash custom rom hit the PDA button right? same as flashing cwm?

no, odin not for custom roms, you need custom recovery mode to install custom roms

ooo. ok. for custom rom no need to use odin after flashing cwm rite?

now close odin and continue on cwm?


instructions:
1. download the GT-I8190_enox-reVenge-AMD3-v4.0.zip - 339.63 MB and "optional" GT-I8190_AMD3_modem.bin-update.zip & copy them to your "ext"sdcard
2. reboot into recovery-mode and make a backup...(to be on the save side )
3. now flash the "GT-I8190_enox-reVenge-AMD3-v4.0.zip" and optional the "GT-I8190_AMD3_modem.bin-update.zip"...
4. after flashing you should clean/wipe dalvik-cache & cache ...
5. reboot and wait ! (first boot can take up to 5 minutes)

yes, just boot to cwm recovery, installed zip from sdcard/external

ok thx. after that. do efs backup and all is finish right?

okok. i still din root my phone. now doin backup on cwm.

i choose backup to sdcard insteadof backup (the top one)

choose the choice of external sdcard if you can find 1. maybe you should root already the phone, you already have the custom recovery mode, just put the s3m root.zip file in any sdcard, and find the option to installed fron sdcard from the cwm recovery. after reboot your phone already rooted

i think wrong choose since it says sd card space free 768mb on. shud be gb not mb.
