Hello,
ReplyDeleteWhich model of the Samsung J3? Also compatible with Samsung SM-J320f?
Thanks for commenting here,
DeleteI don't understand what you want to know actually, but remember all the modeles of j3 is compatible to each other, they are different in their firmware date and version only.
In ZIP file there is no .tar. Only .img. So Odin wont work.
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to extract cwm recovery its already in a .tar format
DeleteI tried but Odin stops at Set up connection and then "Operation failed" and nothing happens. Yesterday I rooted J3 via Odin and everything is ok except flashing recovery. I tried also with flashify but for some reason when I start it Flashify stops when I press Browse file...
ReplyDeleteHello Darko Mihaljević, thanks for giving your response, flashify dosen't work without root access, so first root your galaxy j3 by flashing CWM recovery via odin method, if odin says "failed" then check your model and the recovery is compatible or not with your j3 model.
Deleteyou have to flash recovery which is compatible with your phone's model, good luck!
Tnx but I already rooted my J3. I failed to flash recovery. But it was my fault because I had to power off J3 and than go to Download mode (something I did not do). Now everything works ok. Do you know if there is some custom rom for J3?
DeleteYou are most welcome Darko Mihaljević, and sorry buddy in this time there is not any custom ROM exists for galaxy j3, if exists in future i'll post as earlier, keep visiting.
DeleteMy J3 is still boots on stock recovery after the reboot. I tried it again this time unticking the auto reboot and turn off my phone by removing the battery and boot on recovery but its stuck on j3 logo with odin text above.
ReplyDeleteDuring this process approx 80% people bricks their phone in first attemp but don't worry its softbrick problem, so you can easily fix it read this post to fix your j3 http://www.techalike.com/2016/04/how-to-fix-bricked-samsung-galaxy-j3.html
