Hello people! I was wondering, if I install PhilZ Touch Recovery via odin, does it increase my custom binary counter? Thanks! If yes, can I install it via the stock recovery mod, using a signed .zip if there's any?

Hi guys,
I am a relative newb to xda and rooting etc and have a query that hopefully someone can help me with. I have flashed a pre rooted mf8 rom via odin and would now like to add the loud volume mod to my s4 i9505! As far as I understand the mod has to be flashed via custom recovery. I still have stock recovery on my s4 and I am not sure on how to flash a custom recovery or which one I should use. Apologies if this is the wrong thread and thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,
Look HERE
Choose one of the 4 recoveries available .
Installation instructions are on the thread.
as far as i know there are currently 3 custom recoverys available.
im using philz touch recovery.
download newest version as .tar.md5, put it in odin as pda, and flash it just like you did with the pre rooted rom.

Thanks... just flashed via odin... worked a treat. Now for that sound mod file.. Thanks again!
What is the easiest way to get a custom recovery on my device which is a i9505 i have rooted using cf auto root?
Sorry for the noobish questions i have always had Nexus devices so Odin etc is new to me
Use recovery tools, available from the play store. After installing CWM, it's easy to change to any other recovery you want. Hope this helped!

Just flash. All custom ROMs have root.
Btw, you need a custom recovery to flash a ROM (like TWRP, CWM)

Not necessarily. You can flash a custom recovery through Odin and not root it at all and then just install a already rooted ROM.

CWM is always reliable. Some prefer TWRP. I'm using Philz Touch. It depends on your preferences. CWM is the most stable.
Hi:
I have flashed a ROM Stock with Knox in 0x0 and root. How could install a Custom Recovery like CWM or Philz without up to 0x1?
Maybe ... Could with Mobile Odin Pro? or is there any safe method to install a Custom Recovery like SafeRoot method for root?
Thanks in advance.
You can't.

No. Only with android 4.2.2 was possible flash a custom recovery and custom roms without trip the KNOX.

hi
root is not necessary only if you need it , for flashing you need custom recovery (twrp) and rom
from the thread
Installation instructions
I only support the latest TWRP recovery, AT&T users must loki after flashing
-Full wipe
-Flash ROM
-Reboot

You should root because only then you would be able to back up EFS, and EFS backup is very recommended before you Flash anything custom.
