Hello,
Apologies if I didnt find it after searching but:
I was looking to get stock recovery back onto the S4. I know I can Odin back to stock but being that my phone is already set up it would be nice to just flash stock back and be happy
Thanks!

I'd you're wanting to remain rooted, then you will need a custom recovery.

I used to be on stock recovery rooted and was able to update ota while keeping root with ota rootkeeper... And stock recovery

Every rot method I've seen requires installing a custom recovery. Either twrp or cwm.

So, you want a recovery that has no abilities? No backups. .. no restores. ... reinstall motochopper then.

It's possible to extract the stock recovery from the Odin image and flash it independently. Check it out in this post. Be warned that it's only for AT&T S4's and it's possible to brick your device pretty badly if you flash the recovery to the wrong place.

yes, you will have to use the odin, and then root again. unless you're running a custom rom, then you will have to full wipe your device.
I am rooted on a mdk build. I was previously rooted and had twrp custom recovery. Ran bunch of roms then kinda got tired of messing around and always having to do a full wipe in order to try different roms so I uprooted and went back to stock completely.
It hasn't been a week and I already decided to go back to root and throw on a different rom. I rooted again, but am having a lot of trouble installing twrp and clockwork recoveries.
When I try goomanager I come to the screen to install the recovery and I get a "webpage not available" every time. When I try to do it manually I get a fail message. I just don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
Through clockwork, I install the recovery, and it tells me that it was installed successfully. I try to access it and I get the Verizon error message saying that unauthorized software was found and to shut the phone off and bring it to nearest vzw, Yea Ok!
So I'm lost at this point, anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Best way out of this.
Install CyanogenMod Installer on your desktop and plug your phone in. It will install cwm and custom rooted phone. As simple as that.
I did the same as you and this I found really easy and fast

What I would do personally then is download Kies on desktop and do a full system restore. I lost my Recovery by going from routed to stock and couldn't do anything at all.
This sorted it all out.

Don't use goomamager. Try this. Sorry looked through your first post again.
Download a cwm recovery, go to recovery and flash it through there. If that doesn't work then see if you can find a 'flashable in Odin' ROM that confess with CWM that comes with it. Try that. That will definitely work.

I would have done that but when I try and get in the stock recovery, I get the Verizon error messaging saying unsupported software. I can't get into stock recovery at all.

Same issue I had. I just went into download mode and flashed a CWM through Odin. Or a ROM through Odin. Keep trying that maybe
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk
Any time I try to install recovery through Odin I get the fail message. Thanks for your help.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Odin the stock firmware and start all over. Root, then use rom manager or goo manager to put in the custom recovery. Then get rid of the manager.
I must be doing something wrong since I can't seem to get my 2012 4.4.2 n7 rooted. I have the bootloader unlocked custom recovery installed su installed yet no root. What did I screw up?

Have you tried CF-Auto-Root?
I just did but maybe I got the wrong file when I trued to run it it got aborted. ?

hello..
i got note 3 sm n9005 (uk model),i tried to root my phone odin says pass,but it wont go to recovery mode it restarts and stuck on screen saying recovery is not seandroid enforcing" in red and another in yellow saying" set warranty bit.it wont let me root my phone,,,pls help me with this
thanks
That means you have succesfully put a custom recovery on your phone via odin. Stock wont show anything, but anything other than stock, that will show. I can only assume your on JB(4.3) still and have flashed a recovery for KK(4.4)
Im from the uk too, using chenglus 11/21 recovery on my jb rom.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Make sure you are using the right cf auto root file. One is for 4.4 and the other is for 4.3.
edit: didn't read it completely, what did you use to root your phone?

I've never used cf auto root. To root my first rom ( stock rom) i just flashed a custom recovery, and then flashed a superuser zip inside cwm

Did that worked? As far as I know to flash a custom recovery you have to be rooted first.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
Yes works fine. Have done it a few times on the n9005, and many times on other devices. You don't even need a rom to flash a custom recovery, or stock recovery for that matter.

When I first got mine it will not flash cwm without rooting it first but mine was N900W8 so might be different situation.

Really? Im suprised, never heard of that before. Although i only read information related to my device, the n9005.

I initially rooted with Vega 0x0.. I just recently flashed twrp (0x1) to get on CM11. Being as though it was still buggy, I restored back to stock rooted.
This morning I got an OTA notification about stock 4.4.2.
Is it possible for me to take an OTA being as though I have a custom recovery?

If you're back to original unrooted stock then yes.
