Flash twice with Odin:
1) flash first time unticking reboot
2) reboot in download mode
3) flash second time with reboot option enabled
Still the same, after reboot i hold the home and volume and it still goes to old recovery.
Battery out.
Afterwards boot in download mode with 3-button-combo and flash again with Odin.

Can I flash only CWM because I want to make nandroid backup first before rooting to preserve original copy of stock system? Can I root after flashing CWM?
Yes. Do the backup between the indication 7 and 8, like there was a 7.5 - in the cwm recovery perform a backup to the external sd.

Failed attempt to install recovery on new S4
This is my first post to XDA, so first let me say how impressed I am by the support you guys give to all us newbies. Thanks
I have been attempting to root a new Galaxy s4 mini and have read a large part of this thread and attempted to follow the instructions carefully. But without success.
If someone can help I would love to be able to free this phone of all the samsung junk.
Story so far:-
I've attempted to root using the Skipsoft Toolkit and using Odin directly.
All attempts have failed with the odin message of 'Get pit for mapping' followed by a Complete(write) operation failed.
The progress bar on the Download screen on the s4 never gets past the first millimetre.
1. The drivers are up to date.
2. I've tried several USB cables and am plugged directly into the back port.
3. I've tried Odin 3.07 & 3.09 recognition of the phone is fine.
4. I've tried with Auto Reboot & F. Reset Time selected and not selected.
5. I've attempted to flash recoveries CWM 6.0.4.6 & 6.0.5.1 & TWRP 2.7
6. USB debugging is on.
All fail.
The phone is
I9195 running 4.4.2
Baseband I9195XXUCOI4
I'm using a very old Dell laptop which I think my not be running USB 2 all other computers in the house are MACs.

Looks like the Skipsoft Toolkit is only supported up to stock 4.2.2, your phone is 4.4.2 (not that I've used Skipsoft)

I think it means CWM did not install properly, flash it again

Boot into recovery go to "advanced" and select “Wipe Dalvik Cache”
Hi everybody.
I flashed the recovery but when the phone vibrates and I immediatly hold the keys Home and Volume Up, it starts normally. No way to start the recovery mode. If it can be useful, the Android version is 4.4.4. Thanks in advance for help.

335WARNING! ONLY USE THIS ON THE GT-I9195 MODEL!
Hello all S4 Mini owners!
I'm happy to finally release ClockworkMod recovery and an insecure kernel for the GT-I9195. With these two installed on your device, obtaining root is easy.
Attached to this post is the necessary files needed for this task. Download the following files:
- Odin_v3.09.zip (if you don't have it already)
- recovery-clockwork-6.0.5.1-serranoltexx.tar.zip
- S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip (contains SuperSU v1.89 and BusyBox v1.21.1) ONLY FOR STOCK ROM! NOT FOR CM OR OTHER AOSP BASED ROMS!
The procedure is as:
- Copy the " S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip" to your device SD card.
- Turn off the phone.
- Press and hold home, volume down and power. Download screen should appear.
- Connect USB cable, and press volume up.
- Start Odin, uncheck "F. Reset Time", and then click AP button.
- Select "recovery-clockwork-6.0.5.1-serranoltexx.tar.md5" file that you previously extracted, and press Start button. The phone will reboot when finished.
- After the phone resets (it vibrates) IMMEDIATELY hold volume up and home buttons to boot into recovery mode.
- Select the option to install the ZIP file you have previously copied to your device and begin flashing it.
- After flashing using CWM, reboot into system and enjoy your rooted device.
- Optional: Flash GT-I9195_Kernel_v1.zip (Only for Android 4.2.2, not KitKat) to use a custom stock kernel, which might fix battery drain for some.

17I'm still working on CM, and have the last few days been struggling with rewriting the audio config that defines mixer control and usages. Samsung uses completely different names than what's in the audio hal in CM, and rewriting it and testing is a huge pain. And then on top of that Android 4.3 was released, so even more work bringing that up too.17[OFF-TOPIC] What do you think about releasing a second CM9/CM10 EOL for our old Galaxy W to include the MasterKey exploit patches? I don't think it's a good idea to leave us with security risks
[/OFF-TOPIC]
Yes, there will be new releases of that soon. But keep that discussion to the Galaxy W forums.
An insecure kernel has disabled the root prevention checks that Samsung added. Other than that it's the same as stock kernel. Although in this kernel I also made two minor changes to allow apps to read the kernel log and the full logcat.
