I have a rooted N900 running stock rom, I want to reflash the stock rom, the question is; do I have to unroot first? Or I can flash it right without unrooting
I'm not concerned about warranty and reseting flash binary, I just want to get a clean stock rom again

Yes, you'd have to install a stock ROM and make sure it isn't rooted. Make the phone look like it was when you got it, basically.

No, doesn't affect counter. Only flashing custom Roms and kernels will raise counter.

Hi all,
Is it possible too flash a custom recovery via goo manager in a stock root injected I-9500 ?
If yes then wouldn't we be able to flash roms without odin via the recovery and the flash counter would remain at zero ?
I am tempted to try this. But seems too simple for others not to have tried this before me.
Let me know if I am totally missing something and if some one has tried this before.

Not possible to install custom software on and from a not rooted S4 atm. Security has tightened since the S and S2.
I am rooted.

Then you allredy have the counter raised, 1 or 10 will not make a difference for warranty. That`s gone allready bro if they check that and unfortunately triangle Away doesn`t work yet for the I9500.
I have used this for root.

So, my S4 wont read my simcard anymore, and I have to send it back.
What do I need to do to make sure that Samsung accepts and replaces my device.
It's Rooted, has a custom recovery and ROM.
Thanks.
EDIT: Its a Canadian S4.
Remove flash back via Odin find stock factory image for YOUR DEVICE (I337m) I take it you didn't update it so find the Odin files that correspond with the fw that your phone officially came with

So I went back to the Official Samsung firmware, and used triangle away. Now when I boot into download, both say official. However, when I check device status, it still says custom.
I have removed Root and have a custom recovery installed. Found a Sprint S4 recovery, but I can't find the Canadian. Will the sprint one work?
Only other method I could think of is using Kies (if you don't have it downloaded it) to restore it completely.

Well, Can I not just flash the stock recovery with ODIN?
I'm not too sure. You could search it

If you have an i337m you can flash the stock firmware with odin.

See, I cannot go back to stock and do the triangle away method as SIM card is required to activate the phone, which currently won't read a simcard. Can I not just flash the recovery? Or is there a way to bypass simcard activation? Thanks
I'm trying to restore my phone so I can sell it so I was wondering how do I remove custom recovery, root and revert back to stock ROM? By reverting back to stock will this allow me to do ota updates?

Hi mate,
Restoring back to stock should restore your OTA ability and remove recovery/root.......There is a back to stock link in my signiature......Follow the guide in there for restoring your phone:good:

No not exactly. You also need to reset the flash counter using triangle away app.

cant I jus t revert to stock via keis?
These are basic questions that you should have known before you started to flash your phone.
But no, Kies won't do anything for you in this case. Use Odin.

Hi!
Got my N9005 with MJ7, so I went and rooted with cf auto-root.
As I'm on 4.3 stock, what are my options for upgrading?
What are the implications of the new 4.4.2 bootloader ?

I can live with that as I like the s-pen features.
Should I just flash any firmware?
I see on sammobile there isn't yet a Croatian rom with 4.4.2.
Should I just flash another one if so how to choose and what is the best way to flash?
Will my root survive or will I have to re-root?
Thanks!
Mine didn't survive and now I can't re root for some reason

Yeah that's the only one I tried. Seems to install fine but when booted back up supersu isn't even installed
