Request for stock recovery kitkat & jb

I am requesting stock recovery for kitkat 4.4.2 build G8. And JB 4.3.
my purpose is that, if we want to update our device via OTA we just need to flash the stock recovery instead of flashing the whole stock firmware via Odin, to avoid the "system modified status"when updating via OTA.

Error executing updater binary in zip - TWRP

Hey people.
After going back to Lollipop stock, I tried re-rooting and reinstalling recovery.
I tried to use both OneClickRootRecovery and the SRK tool - and in both I get the same problem.
Root seems to be fine and recovery does appear, but with one little thing - I can't flash ANYTHING.
Getting the "Error executing updater binary in zip" when flashing anything.
I tried a ROM, and even the latest TWRP zip. Always the same error.
Any idea how to solve this?
Updating "updater-script"
I am having the same issue on my lg d802. I read in few threads to edit "updater-script" file. I downloaded roms meant for d802 and replaced all "d800" appearing in updater-script with "d802" (not sure that this is what was to be done).
Tried flashing the rom with updated updater-script but still getting the same error message.
Someone kindly help.

UPDATE: After extensive reading threads I found the solution. Need to flash jellybean bootloader using "bootloader changer" and then flash AOSP based roms. To restore the stock lollipop one should flash kitkat bootloader back.
The easiest for you who are installing aosp/cm roms is:
1. flash kk stock
2. root and use autorec for kk
3. flash the roms you desire

Moto X Play - How to Change Software Status From Modified To Official

Can you Guys Please Tell Me How To Change Software Status From Modified to Official
I Had Rooted My Device, Unlocked Bootloader and Custom Recovery But Never Installed Ant Custom ROM's
So, When The Official Nougat Update Came, I unrooted my device and installed stock recovery
What else do i need to do? Please Help
U need to flash whole firmware, then software status will change to official.
Flashing a stock firmware didnt change mine from modified to ofiicial... but what i found is that you have to flash a stock rom and then update the rom via OTA... here you have to flash a stock rom which already has an ota update... for example the stock rom is "1" and already has an ota update ie "2", then you have to flash "1" first through fastboot/rsd and then update to "2" via ota... it should change from modified to official...

Help upgrade S4 from stock KitKat to latest Lineage

Hi Gurus,
I am dusting off my old AT&T branded S4 (SGH-I337/jflteatt) which still runs KitKat (4.4.2) to Lineage (I think 14.x images are available). The BaseBand version is: I337UCUFNI1. It is out of contract, so no worry about getting any official updates.
The thread here about TWRP for this phone made it look easy to install with the official app from the PlayStore. But after installing TWRP, I get an error 'System software not authorised by AT&T has been found" when I boot either to recovery or to ROM. I am guessing Secure Boot is still actively preventing custom images from booting.
So, how do I bypass this and go about successfully installing Lineage? Will Loki help me do it? Once I install TWRP, is it just a matter of installing official Lineage, or should I make other considerations?
Thanks in advance.
You have to be on the jelly bean MDL bootloader in order to install any custom recovery or ROM. Once you have upgraded to kit kat, you cannot go back. Only the MDL bootloader can take advantage of loki, all other bootloaders (including yours) can't as the exploit was patched in the MK3 firmware I think.
