Which recovery are you referring to, the stock one or custom? Stock is hard to messed with except in extreme cases.

Thank you for your reply.I dont know because I have never seen the recovery after i flashed the stock firmware.After I flashed firmware via odin should it be stock recovery or custom? I wish to obtain cwm recovery for my phone.

Flashing stock firmware will also replace any custom recovery you had with the stock one.
I've been using only CWM 6.0.4.7 by Chenglu. If you want to use this one, choose the correct version for your phone and flash using odin.

[Q] Which is the best official firmware for i9001?

As the title said...
I'm looking for the most battery efficient, most smooth working, most application free (I don't want all the google applications, I use only Play Store, I don't like to sync my phone with the google apps) official ROM for my Galaxy S+.
I live in Romania. The i9001 ROMs for Romania are from vodafone and cosmote (mobile network providers), and these ROMs don't satisfy me. I would prefer a stock ROM without any change provided by the mobile network companies.
I do updates with Odin, I don't use kies...
The custom ROMs work very good, but it seems that the battery drains very fast... I had the swiss 2.3.6 version and the battery drains much much much more slowly.
From your experience which version matches? And where I can get it from?
I hope you can help me. Thank you!
Ok, because no one replayed, I've done some researches and flashed with Odin the 2.3.6 GB I9001XXKQG_I9001NEELE1_NEE.
This one seem to work ok! it satisfies me, but I want to know if I could obtain more?
Now it has the stock recovery and stock kernel.
Can I root it?
Can I change its recovery and kernel?
Which recovery and which kernel?
How to do this?
:angel:
please? someone help me? :crying:
Check the Wiki
The best info I've found is to read the wiki
Samsung Galaxy S Plus WIKI: Visit Here
Has section on Rooting and Recovery.
I use ClockWorkMod Recovery CWM 5.5.0.4 version as it has been stable.
Regards,
Kevin

Yes, you can use the stock recovery. I had no issue doing it this way.
On flashing CWM I did get a boot loop afterwards, but there is a link in the Wiki to fix that also.

Did you flashed CWM with Odin or directly from recovery with a .zip file?

you have made alterations to your phone so its not longer stock. the file you are flashing is for a stock rom and to be flashed in a stock recovery. to flash the update simply re-flash a stock recovery and allow the update to go through. you can also simply wait and flash an updated custom stock rom.
Edit: link deleted....may confuse you
Edit2: Using the toolkits you should be able to find the stock recovery image and flash it back

[Q] Help with installing Stock Kernel and Stock Recovery

Hi guys
Really struggling to find the Stock Kernel for my Note 3 and how to flash.
From what i've read on other forums, everyone seems to say you just flash stock ROM via Odin however this has proven not to be the case when i have flashed.
Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

so what your saying is that you tried to flash the stock firmware via ODIN and the kernel did not revert back to stock kernel ?

Yes that's exactly right. to check if it was a one off i'm currently flashing stock ROM again via Odin as we speak.
it should work that way but if it still doesn't work, go into recovery and WIPE all and then reflash Stock.. that should work

It is not possible to flash a stock ROM with TWRP.

Why? I flashed a stock rom in the Galaxy Tab 3 and it worked
Stock ROMs are flashed using Odin. A stock ROM can be modified to be flashed with TWRP, but then it's not a stock ROM anymore.

But where i can find a rom with no many modifications?
You'll have to look for custom ROMs that based on a stock ROM.

You can try the app Flashfire to flash the stock ROM. But I would make sure to have a PC ready (a friend maybe?) if something happens.
Okay. Thanks @Pwnycorn @audit13
