[Q] I can't use costum rom

---

Hello Everyone!

Two days before, I tried to install some costume ROM into my Galaxy W, but i wasn't successful. I had to flash with Odin.

In today, i decided to install a costume ROM all means. I have a stock rom 2.3.6. I do the rooting, after with odin i flashed the CWM. I put the selected rom into my sdcard, and with the CWM i started the install. The phone wrote, the install was succesfull, so i was very happy.

I did a reboot, and wait for the magic... but nothing. It wrote the samsung logo, after wrote the galaxy W logo, and freeze. I thougt it just installing itself, so i left back. Half hour after nothing, so i must used odin again, and install the stock rom. What do you change that, that I could install costum ROM? What problems am I doing?

To make things simpler flash stock ROM 2.3.5 as .6 can no longet be rooted.

Once ur have restored to .5 root it n flash CWM n flash ur desired ROM....

So i need to get a stock 2.3.5 ROM, and after do everything again? Where can i get that ROM?

It's interesting, becouse i can root my 2.3.6. I have a superuser icon, so i don't know!

2.3.6 can be rooted. I have rooted mine. But the only 'recovery method' will root it.

Did you wipe the phone through CWM before flashing the custom ROM ?

Ehhhhh! not really....

2.3.6 can be rooted with SuperOneClick.....

I did it with my 2.3.6, after flashing new Stock ROM, lost root, but re-rooted with SOC, on this 2.3.6.......

EDIT: flashed this with ODIN

Phone: I8150XXKK1

PDA: I8150XXKK1

CSC: I8150OXXKJ6

but I acknowledge it does not work on all ROM's

The order I did:

1.) Root my phone like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1317394
2.) Flash the CWM with Odin
3.) Wipe all with CWM
4.) Select the .zip file, and install it. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1441662)
5.) Reboot my phone after finish
6.) Wait for booting, but freeze at Galaxy W logo

I have: 2.3.6 | I8150XXKK1

BRB...Be rite back google sammobile.com there is a 2.3.5 FW

OH you used OC ROM........

you check this in post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1441662

• *Disclaimer*: OC may break your phone!
  
• Recommend to use SetCPU set your default speed to 1.4Ghz. Adjust to 1.8Ghz only when necessary. Also it is recommended to set a Profile that will lower the speed in temp > 50C, you know, just in case.
  
• OC is very hardware dependant. If you cannot boot or experience crash too often, this is not for you. Get this non-OC ROM instead.
• Faster = use more power = more heat = less battery! Let me know how's the battery is like.
• OC code was modified and compiled by a friend...
