Hoping someone has a stock recovery zip for the att version of the g2. Have been looking but haven't found anything.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

****, I need this, too. I'm thinking that you need the stock recovery to use storage encryption for non-AOSP based ROMs... Any luck finding it elsewhere?
I found the stock recovery, but it didn't make a difference when trying to encrypt a non-AOSP ROM.

Anyone willing to help me get this zip package I found in the Epic forum to run on a Nexus S 4g?

The Samsung stock recovery, for uninstalling ClockworkMod, useful for turning in the phone to Sprint.
Do not flash the stock recovery unless your phone boots into system, and you need to turn the phone in."
I recently broke my USB plug inside my phone and am only able to charge (even charging is going out). I think many people could take advantage of it when they are not in front of a computer to return to stock.
Thanks whomever is able to help
You had to go and make this post in two sub forums of the nexus s forums eh...
Don't install that, just flash a stock rom that's unrooted and it should over ride your custom recovery.

Does this apply to the Nexus S 4g?

I wasn't able to find any non-rooted stock rom's for the Nexus S 4G. Could anyone point me towards the right direction?
Try peter alfonsos website? One should be under "crespo4g" in the downloads section.

Neither of those sites contain a non-rooted stock ns4g roms. They only contain rooted roms and OTA updates which require stock non-rooted roms to use.
The one Sean posted are the ones you are looking for

The ones Sean posted only contain OTA incremental updates. I still need to have an unrooted stock from installed to use them. I've tried all variations using all the stock rooted roms from Pete and they do not update. Error parsing file each time.

Did you try the software image on peters site ? That's exactly what you need if I'm hearing you right. Not the rooted stock ROMS but the image

Am I supposed to flash the image from CWM because my USB port is damaged and can't run adb.

I know what tour talking about. When I had my epic they had a non ROOTED stock rom that was flashable via cwm then the had a stock recovery that would remove cwm which was also flashable through cwm

I'm not sure if that's what you need to do , I thought you just wanted the image and you knew how to do the rest. I don't want to tell you something that might just brick your phone

ROM Manager should have your stock GB to download and flash. You would then be unrooted when you are done. It always works for me.
Here is the ns4g 2.3.5 full ota rom: http://android.clients.google.com/p...882446e0.signed-sojus-ota-138666.504d8824.zip. This will unroot you and return you to the stock rom and recovery.
This will not re-lock your bootloader, though. In order to lock the bootloader without a cable, you'll to build a modified kernel to use Ezekeel's hack. (To state the obvious, this would require root access and a custom recovery, so you'd want to do this before flashing the stock rom .)

Thank you. I ended up flashing stock rooted from Pete, and with no questions asked, they handed me a refurbished one.

I'm completely new to Loki, can someone answer these questions, please?
1. On Verizon, which Recovery is my best choice?
2. Is Loki built in the recovery?
3. Once I have recovery can I just flash roms, etc. From recovery like normal? Nothing extra?
I did search, so please, your answers and time are appreciated.

Get TWRP from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670
Install instructions are included in that thread. I used flashify but heard others had issues.
Once its installed you can flash ROMs and the one kernel or mods till you drop.
So Loki makes s off obsolete?

See this tread I wrote about installing Loki-enabled ClockworkMod recovery on Verizon LG G2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498941
1) Either CWM or TWRP. I don't think either is "best"; they generally do the same things. Each recovery has its fans. The tread above is specific to CWM recovery.
2) By default, no. I created Loki-enabled images for CWM. There is a loki-enabled image for TWRP if you wish to use that. Once you have the image handy, you can use the steps described in the post above to install it.
3) Once you have CWM or TWRP custom recovery, You can flash custom ROMs like normal.

I'm having trouble locating finding the stock kernel for my VS980 G2. Does anyone know how I can acquire it? I would like to install Dorimanxs' kernel but want to have a backup of stock to be safe. Thanks.

Just create backup before flashing new kernel. Then you can restore just the boot part of backup to return to stock. Or you can just dirty flash whatever ROM you are running and it will overwrite it.

Hello all, long time lurker here with a couple if questions. Not new to rooting: I've rooted an HTC Inspire, HTC One X, and finally this bad boy. This is definitely a different experience and there seems to be a lot of info that developers assume you know but even after reading everything recommended I still feel very confused. I am on the MDL baseband, rooted and flashed with the 4.3 GPE version which I think was pulled from a nexus variant. Here are my questions:
1) Are there any stock, rooted, Touch Wiz ROMs with the AT and T bloat removed?
2) What does Loki do, and if not explicitly stated that it's used in a ROM, do I install it before flashing the ROM or after?
Sent from my SGH-1337 using xda app-developers app
There's plenty, and you can flash ROMs from any S4 variant though you might need to flash an at&t kernel. Loki is our method to bypass the locked bootloader, and if you flash a ROM without it then it won't boot.

Thanks for the reply! I can't seem to find any ROMs in the Android Development forum that are described as such.

1.) Check out Shostock. It's built from stock source and works very well. It is pretty close to what you are looking for.

I like iB's GoldenEye rom. Has zip to delete bloat. You can open zip and delete lines you don't want deleted. IE I delete S-Memo from script so it doesn't delete it from rom. Perfect rom for me, good battery life also. Very smooth.
Long story I need to get a app from from the Australian Android Market using a app called Market Enabler. I'm trying to flash a new ROM but I keep getting a status 7 error saying I can't flash because in HLTE not HLTESPR. I've tried using market enabler again but there's no Sprint opinion. please I don't wanna be stuck with this ROM for ever anyway to bypass this or restoring it to HLTESPR?
I'm using clockworkmod recovery. And I'm trying to flash CM 11 other touchwiz Roms work just stock Android ones I'm having a isuss with.
if anybody can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
need some help guys come on. +++1
Status 7 is usually recovery error.
Either switch out to TWRP and/or choose unmount system then flash your ROM.zip
