[@prashantramalingam9121]

Hi HK, a much-needed post, but do you think custom ROMs will work on lower end old devices like the Samsung galaxy ace s5830i? I have seen my friend flash ROMs in that and I have seen the device becomes very slow. So is there any way to make it fast? or I would have to buy another phone and move on? Thanks in advance

How to flash custom recovery

[@justroxthis1986]

Thanks I finally put a custom rom on my amazon fire hd 6 because you know how amazon devices are there main android rom sucks thanks alot

[@juned1163]

The android guy can you please make a video on "how to swap internal memory with external memory"...i heard you saying it in one of your videos that you swaped the memories to install large game so can you please help me

[@darkkiel356]

dude no need to rooted?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+Vocal Buela Nope

[@lanceboyle4080]

great video thanks for putting it up, just a quick question, ive had a look for customs roms for my old samsung galaxy fame device as I wanted to try what you have done here... but the instructions on the xda forums for this are pretty vague (to me at least),, any chance you could help explain them better? if you have free time that is.

[@RyanG12742]

this is the most in depth video I have ever seen on flashing a ROM...... thanks a lot and keep up the good work. but how do I backup my phone if its a phone which doesn't have an SD card slot

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Even my phone didn't have an SD card the whole time. Its just that the Internal SD(phone memory) and external sd (SD card) are both named as SD on the recovery.only the stuff on your device flash memory will be wiped and the SD memory will be safe So all internal or external SD be safe and backups will be saved in your internal SD memory. Good luck the android guy

[@Br6y9n]

This is by far the best tutorial every other one was to confusing thank you for making this very easy for me

[@kapilgupta798]

Would my samsung galaxy core 2 work with the new cyanogen mod...... And plus i had a real hard time finding that rom for my phone.....

[@arthurmiklaszewski6217]

Nice video and really helpful if you are new to this. I would really like to see a video on explaining how to properly partition your external SD card (probably with AParted) to be used with the Link2SD to transfer apps and game data to your external SD but also to use your external SD Card for more RAM. For example I want to do it in my tablet with a 32 GB micro SD card. But not sure how to properly do it to not only transfer games to my external SD but also have more RAM from it. I did some digging on it and didn't find anything that explains on how to do it to have both. So I think if you make a video on this it would help lots of people. Both for them who either wants more space or more RAM or like me who wants both. Thanks

[@Financebychartered]

simple question it is required that our phone is rooted

[@DipsyMum29]

I've always used twrp but this seemed simpler? Is Cwm compatible with all the latest roms as I've read in some of the threads to only flats with twrp and never really understood how it made a difference?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+DipsyMum29 Yes,Twrp has some bells and whistles.But since Cmw is the O.G of custom recoveries,its compatibility is better than twrp,and is very basic with important features served in a simple manner.I Do have twrp on my other phones,its better and easier to navigate than cmw,but since most people watching this video have cmw on (as it supports all the older devices as well as all the newer ones too),So made a video showing cmw,you can also try twrp,filz,cyanogenmod recovery,etc,etc.The set of instructions shown in the this video is same on every other custom recovery as almost all the recoveries that came after Cmw,has the names and titles based on cmw.

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+The Android Guy And Ya,you will need Twrp to do certain try of tasks like mounting an otg,selective partitioning,etc Like wise you will need cmw to do things like dual boot 2 roms,etc If you are only into roms,them anyone will do Hope that helps

[@DipsyMum29]

The Android Guy yes that helps a lot thanks xx

[@Adhvikha]

How can people unlike this!! This tutorial is just so perfect. But can you please also show how to install or flash custom recovery in detail. You only showed how to install a custom ROM. My device is Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-p3100 running jellybean 4.1.2 and I didn't get enough tutorial for flashing a custom recovery for my device. And Thank you for your quick reply to my previous query.

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+Shailesh Manganakar Thanks for your support.I appreciate that As i said installing a custom recovery is diff for diff devices.Google search

[@Kawiesh]

Hi very helpful video. I had a question about backing up the rom via recoverymode on sd. How much space would it take approximately. Thanks :-)

[@clanboy12gaming22]

Dude that beat-boxing was sick!

[@TheRatchet04]

[@prajwal7250]

man thank u so much bro really now i learn how to install custom ROM's.

[@Adhvikha]

I have two doubts here. Firstly, is there any need for internet connection during the process. And secondly I use kingroot, so should I replace it with superSU before doing this. Thank you.

[@BestGamingIsrael]

dont know what i did wrong but i did backup and after i did factory reset and wipe data and cache it deleted my rom file and i cuold not use it after i got the file via pc to the sd card

[@TheAndroidGuy]

You accidentally wiped your internal memory which contained the rom file.No issue though, Flash a stock rom/custom rom

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Your rom didn't come with Playstore pre installed. You can either flash a compatible version of gapps.zip or manually install the lastest version of both playservices.apk and playstore.apk form the Internet. Read the description for more info

[@johnboos6987]

do i need root to use the phone

[@MrDownWithTheSouth]

So why would you need titanium backup if you can backup everything from the recovery?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Good question Titanium backup can help you transfer your apps+data from your old ROM to your new ROM Nandroid Backup will restore the whole old ROM

[@jebonneelvina7559]

hey mate. my status is already custom but I want to return to the original rom. how?

[@MrWarriorwithin007]

hey i just wanted to know that as my device has no external card slot will i be able to revert back to the old os after taking its backup? wiping cache n doing factory reset wont affect my backup ? Thanks

[@TheAndroidGuy]

If you are worried. Please Do take backup of the backup you created (copy it into your pc/pendrive, ect)

[@jenarocalvillo8009]

do you need to have root to install a custom ROM?

[@fifaamgamer3051]

[@sarveshvashisht]

Hey android guy, 2 questions/help needed. Do I need to root my phone in order to install a custom rom and a custom recovery? Please if you have time can you find me a video/tutorial on how to root my Samsung Galaxy s5 the Indian exynos variant. Kindly reply and thanks if you have read this. Peace!

[@sabindrasinha2342]

Is Cyanogenmod and Custom ROM is same or different? When I am searching for Custom ROM for my device it is showing the results which are for my device. But when I am searching Cyanogenmod for my device it is showing some other cyanogenmod not for my device. Then I have only Custom ROMs for my device but not cyanogenmod. In video you have used cyanogenmod. Bit last version of this video you used custom ROM. Can you explain please?

[@SAKE42able]

want to ask I'm on ll want to install custom ROM based on kk should I down grade first or flash directly another question I have videos on phone memory will it wipe when I install the custom ROM or it go to backup too ??

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+Mohammed Kamal You can flash directly Data on the sd card will be safe, Data on internal memory will be wiped.make a backup

[@LIGHTandPEACE]

You deserve like and subscribe.you have pure english.easy and clear.

[@Mukul.023]

as you explained in your vedio,that we should first backup and then go ahead for the custom recovery! so mine question is too you is. Cell like myn moto g 1st gen, we don't have external SD card where we should backup? ... 😯

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Use your internal memory simple. Internal memory and flash memory and two different things. Only the flash memory is wiped when you install a rom. The data on the internal memory including the backups and not wiped unless you manually format the phone from the recovery. Just be safe, take a backup of the custom recovery backup on your pc

[@Mukul.023]

+The Android Guy thank you! 😃

Okay thanks..!

[@regencyluxuryhotel569]

@theAndroidGuy Can i use this rom for my galaxy note edge? Awesome video. Thumbs up!

[@jawadiqbal6582]

Great explanation buddy ,i have just one question what if i want to install another custom rom and want a backup of this rom as well will it overlap the stock rom?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+Jawad Iqbal You can create as many backups you want They will be backup-ed separately

[@xXGAMING101Xx]

the best tutorial on youtube thanks for the perfect explanation :)

[@leighneck4915]

good day sir!just wanna ask .after a successful installation of new rom..do u need to root the phone again or no need? thanks in advance. :)

[@TheAndroidGuy]

If the room is Not pre rooted. You will need to reroot but it's very easy to root from the Custom recovery. Just follow the instructions Video on Rooting after installing a custom Rom. (link in the description)

[@janmix21]

I can't find a tutorial on how to install a custom recovery on my Alcatel One Touch Scribe HD 8008x. Is it possible to follow tutorials even if it is not for my specific phone model?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

I don't recommend that. IF there is a custom recovery file for your device there will be a tutorial for that too. If not then please don't try tutorials that are not for your device. Search in forums you will come across something or request for a tutorial on xdaforums Do subscribe Goodluck TheAndroidGuy

[@janmix21]

Thanks for the quick feedback man. I'll try to request a tutorial on xdaforums and hopefully they make one. I already subbed. Great vids btw. Cheers!

[@MrAurinko]

this is a great tutorial, although i have a couple of questions, can i do the backup with titanium? i mean would that titanium app work as the custom recovery you are talking about? thanks man

[@traceyodonnell1969]

Just a quick question, my apologizes for ignorance... Once you have flashed your custom rom, is your device more considered rooted?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Both Yes and No,If the ROM that your flashing comes rooted(pre rooted) then your device will be rooted.If the ROM doesn't comes pre rooted like the one that i i showed in the video,then its non rooted.You will have to root it

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Tracey ODonnell If the sim cards are fine(No scratches or scrapped off connections), and doing a factory rest on your device yields no fix then its should be a hardware issues, you might need to change the sim card trays only.Take it to a local individual phone repair shop as the servicing center folkes will change the entire thing for a small issue

[@traceyodonnell1969]

Possibly but my research has warranted that changing the tray doesn't fix the issue as it's thought that it's the connection between the tray and the board itself. Thanks for your time I appreciate your responding.

[@dharam344]

Hii...i have micromax unite 2 lolipop..which custom recovery best for me ?? And how i flash custom recovery plz help meee

[@mirchidarling9820]

all latest phones hv custom roms and recoveries but ... my phone dnt hv

[@rick00770]

Do you need a computer to do all this ? sorry for asking but I'm new to this and don't know as much as others. I have an unlocked note 3. I did root it using towel root one click root apk (no pc) not sure if I am totally rooted. but my phone is faster in most area, s. I downloaded root booster and green if from android play store also. Thanks for your video. You explained well.

[@TheAndroidGuy]

To install A custom ROM you will need No pc you can do it straight form your device. But to install custom recovery you may need a pc. It depends on your device. Google search will help. But once a custom recovery is install there after everything else can be done from your devide itself no pc

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Happy to hear that you are making full use of root..

[@Mkobzar1]

So If i have a lollipop i still can downgrade to a kitkat by finding the kitkat ROM and following your steps?

[@feelgeorge]

I am stuck in a boot loop, I want to get out of it but I cant how do I install a new ROM for my note 2 ? when I press volume down and power button and home button I get to custom os screen which says download when I press the volume up button. how do i flash a new rom ? please help

[@TheAndroidGuy]

+George ogbeide Thats not a bootloop screen,You booted into the "Download mode" Simply go to the custom recovery and restore the backup that you should have made.If you didnt make a backup,Flash another rom but make sure that the rom is made for your specific device.If you cant boot into the custom reocvery (very rare) the google search "How to unbrick "your model number" which basically includes flashing the stock firmware on your device though odin software from a pc

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Simple Google search 'How to unbrick +ur Device model number'.

[@jbuloke]

[@aravindan8156]

Really Thank you vry vry vry much R u indian???

[@Dean7748]

What modifications did you make on the stock ROM? At first, I thought it was a regular Galaxy Note 5 ROM. But if it's really stock, tell me. Please. How?

[@TheAndroidGuy]

Its a near stock based rom based on the official s6 rom. Aesthetically its identical to any another touch wiz based rom that comes on Samsung devices. If you look closer, I have changed the screens DPI and tweaked with the colour and contrast settings due to which the images and the rom looks crisper even though the display is a previous generation display The Speed of the rom is increased and hardware acceleration is forced turned ON from the developers option

[@TheAndroidGuy]

And that's pretty much it. No major tweaks. So it's a stock touchwiz based custom rom which is made to look like (themed on) s6's rom. Hope that helps Goodluck TheAndroidGuy

[@Dean7748]

+The Android Guy Cool. Thanks mate. I used to use a Galaxy S6 ROM on my Galaxy S4 too. Imperium ROM, if I'm not mistaking
