Hope this works...Will post when the operation is done..

Home button rarely works. The settings button in the pull-down menu doesn't work when it comes down to the settings. There are many disconnections with services. Sometimes the back button just stops working period then you have to use the software interfaces back button, if it's provided, to leave the application, which takes longer than it should.


It does move fast though.

Sounds like your using the latest TWRP which has issues when installing roms
Probably, but there isn't any other custom recovery that I could find for the SM-G360T. The weird thing is that gapps ARM32 (5.1.1) is the only file that is able to be flashed. If you know any other custom revovery for my phone, I'd be glad to try it out. This is the one that I am using:

Just got this phone today with no research. I was planning on getting the LG Leon but no one around had it in stock. (Smashed my LG F60 phone bad yesterday).
So, I was impatient, I did a fresh install of Windows XP (due to previous phones having issues with the OS being Win 7 64-bit). Then I installed the Samsung drivers (from their site) before connecting the phone (eliminates the phone pushing drivers) then I used Odin to push the TWRP and then wiped then installed the rom and gapps from sd card. At the end of flashing the zip files it did ask me to install SuperSU and reboot, which I did. Now I'm in a boot sequence endless loop :( I pulled the battery and restarted. Apps are now installing. Then I selected a launcher. :)
Cameras, GPS, phone all see to work. Tried calling my phone and see no alerts, only see it in the call log.

All this while getting ready for a tropical storm. In the next day or so I will try to go back to stock and flash again just to know I can do it. But first, hours of configuring this ROM :)

I like the ROM but its still missing ah few things. For instance. U can't set lock screen wallpaper from main settings. No volume or keypress sound. Plus the ROM itself will partiton ur ext-sdcard. I didn't understand that part if it suppose to be the lightest ROM. I think I'll stick wit slim pickins until this ROM becomes more stable.. But all in all dam good ROM for speed.

I went back to original firmware just because I wanted to see if I could. Then I used the usb drivers from http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SM-G360TRWATMB# scroll down to drivers. Then used Odin to push TWRP (I had to remove the .md5 extension from the op), then installed rom from sd card, selected not to install SuperSU, phone rebooted, went through half dozen boot sequence loops, then booted. Went back into recovery and installed gapps. Much smoother this install and was able to do it from Win 7 64-bit.
