Try this process:

1. Place all the files you downloaded to your Desktop
2. Extract files from the Odin archive over to your Desktop
3. Connect your device to your PC using the USB cable.
4. Copy the Root Package archive over to the root of your SD card.
5. Once the file’s been copied, unplug your device from your PC.
6. Double-click on the Odin executable file and it’ll launch.
7. Click on PDA and select the ClockworkMod Recovery file you have placed on your Desktop.
8. Checkmark the box that says F. Reset Time. Leave Repartition and Auto Reboot unchecked.
9. Turn OFF your device
10. Reboot your device into Download mode. To do so, press and hold the Volume DOWN+Home+Power buttons together.
11. Press the Volume UP button to continue to Download mode.
12. Plug your device in to your PC via USB cable.
13. Hit Start in the Odin and it’ll begin flashing the recovery.
14. Once the recovery’s been flashed, you’ll get a message on your screen saying PASS. DO NOT reboot your device, just head onto the next section to learn how to root your device.



1. Pull the battery out of your device.
2. Put it back into the device.
3. Reboot the device into Recovery mode by holding down the Volume UP+Home+Power buttons together.
4. You should now be in the Recovery mode.
5. From the Recovery menu, select install zip from sdcard followed by choose zip from sdcard.
6. Navigate to the SD card of your device and choose the Root Package archive you copied earlier to your device.
7. It’ll flash the package to your device.
8. Once it’s done, reboot your device.
9. And you’re all done!

Tried your suggestion. Got pass on odin. Got to step 5 on second part. But could not go any further the sd card didn't pull up. At the bottom of the screen. E:can't mount/cache /recovery /command.
I have used 2 different sd cards both 32 gig. Formated. The second card i wiped the card clean except for the root package. Same thing. It doesn't show my sd card. Any hhelp would be appreciated. Thanks again

Also 1 more question do i need to have the sd card mounted or unmounted. Thanks again

I've tried the steps above several time with the same exact results, Device will not recognize the sd card. Finally gave up months ago.
Thought I'd try once again and came across your post.
Have you been able to solve this?
