[HOW TO] Get a Completely Stock Kernel + Root! - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I just confirmed what leatherneck6017 discovered in Bubby's stock kernel thread.
Basically, there's a simple (although sort of drawn out) process for getting yourself both a stock kernel, and root access. Here's the steps I followed:
First, I flashed the stock kernel linked on the first page of the thread above. Coming from Zedomax, this removed root, and brought me back to stock (Albeit with SU still installed)
Second, I followed Bubby's instructions in This thread to install Clockwork Mod, and then flash the root .zip in CWM.
Third, I reflashed the same stock kernel I flashed in step one.
Voila, I now have a stock kernel--and root!
All thanks to Bubby for his hard (and amazingly fast) work on this device.
I don't know if anyone else is even interested in doing this, but I thought I'd put it out there, since what I've wanted since Day 1 is a stock kernel + root and now, in a roundabout way, I've got it! Much thanks to ACS, and I hope this helps someone.

Hell yea, thanks man!

This is exactly what I have been looking for also.. DL'ing the files now will be flashing momentarily...

Boo Ya! Worked like a charm, many thankx good sir! Root is back, SetCPU is locked at 1200, and now I'll be watching for LOS and checking to see if my BlueTooth connection is back to normal... although at this pace there will be something shiny and new to flash by noon HaHa!

Worked as posted!

after doing all this will i have clockwork mod or not?

amen holay lu this is all i wanted dont need no fancy kernel thanks yall!!!

I was from Zedomax V3, just flashed stock kernel, still have root and native recovery

Damn my luck! It's only been 30 mins running stock+ root and BAM.. signal loss... sigh.. going back to virgin stock, I never did get LOS for the 6 days I ran unrooted. Balls!

actually you dont have to do the 3 steps just flash overclocked kernel and then reflash stock kernel through odin and the root will stay with stock kernel.

is there any way to working rom manager? when i did back up through rom manager it stuck at traingle.when i tried to flash clockwork mod from rom manager it shows three phones i1900mtd , i1900 and samsung galaxy 2.

I did this process and now have stock kernel plus root. Is it not possible to have stock kernel, root, AND clockwork mod... ?

Not until cwm is added to stock kernel, or the root .zip, because they're both in the same spot and after you add root you lose cwm, at least I did..

So if I wasnt rooted to begin with do I A. Root with zedo' method then follow steps in the OP or B. Start with step 2 somehow? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Unroot the phone?

Is there any methods on how to unroot the phone?
i was wondering the same thing, i'm gonna go exchange my phone tomorrow at noon due to the vertical lines on the screen. i just installed the deodexed rom and deleted superuser.

I think someone needs to post a CWM or Odin flashable stock recovery image. I'm not sure when that's going to happen since we replace it with a custom recovery to get root. I have a feeling we may need to wait until someone releases a custom kernel/system image that is pre rooted. At that point someone with a virgin phone should be able to flash that and pull an image of the stock recovery.
However, I could just be talking out of my ass since I'm not a dev ...

I agree. A Odin that would flash the stock kernel and stock recovery would be very handy incase you need to return the device. I'd worry about returning the phone with a custom recovery and voiding some sort of tmo warranty.
I am also looking for a way to get the original recovery back.. is there a way to do this or will we have to wait?
If you did nandroid backup before installing the zip file then all you need to do is restore that backup.

And how would you go about getting a nandroid backup without the custom cwm recovery? I'm pretty sure nandroid won't backup the recovery partition anyways. This isn't like other devices like the vibrant where recovery is built into the kernel or you just start a custom recovery by loading an update.zip from the stock recovery.

Does anyone have the stock recovery? or a way to put it back to stock completely? If not your looking at a huge Out of warranty fee if returns are needed.

No, looks like that will not put the stock recovery back on so it will be evident in the event of an exchange that it is rooted and the Out of warranty fee will be assessed.
---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 PM ----------
Or is there a way to remove the recovery from the phone that will work too (for an exchange)
This is what's keeping me back from rooting so far. I want to know for sure I can go back to stock before I do anything. Hopefully this will come soon.
I might be exchanging my phone and wonder if they would notice that it was rooted. Kinda want to test everything on this phone and then I will figure out what to do with my new phone. What do you guys think about them finding out??
Ya, I would love to see a way to restore the stock recovery also. I rooted to see if chainfire would help with all of the game crashes that i have been experiencing but it didnt and now I want to restore the stock recovery so that I can do an exchange.
you must have clockworkmod recovery installed before continuing

anybody have this problem when trying to access rom manager?
Can someone with a higher pay grade than me explain what's involved in order to get the file/image for stock recovery? Just trying to understand the process involved. Does anyone know if this is being worked on now?

If you noitce....the recovery is called CMW and in the recovery refers to itself as "CWM-Based". It's not from Koush is my understanding and that's the way of the world.

Lost Rogue Recovery, still have root

I'm running VeNuM ICE 3.1.1 with FC22 Modem and Kernel. Apparently I used stock on the kernel during my last flash and lost my recovery. What's the easiest way to get it back since I'm already rooted and the Android System Recovery <3e> doesn't give me the option to flash anything?
Odin or mobile odin.

From what I've heard is not to mess with a Recovery while on ICS due to their being bricks... I'd suggest using the ODIN one click to EL29, then use autoroot package with option C, to install Rogue recovery and flash to a newer ICS ROM.

What id suggest is downloading chris41gs stock el26 recovery and use mobile odin to flash it. Then upon reboot go into recovery and flash whatever u want next. Then if u want to switch roms again or update, follow the same procedure.
thanks Febby & rsalinas1, I used sfhubs one click odin to stock, then installed FC24 with cwm and I am good to go. good (cheap) learning experience for me.

[Q] Start from scratch help due to stupidity!

Can't title it any better. I was running Mj's BLEND ICS, and have been having problems with reboots, etc. So I saw a new version out and wanted to try that. I rebooted and noticed CWM was gone, and it looked like a stock recovery.
So I was reading up a bit and moved over the new version to the SD, then while under that recovery, I made a HUGE mistake and hit the power (forgetting that's [enter]) and whatever it was on it formatted data/system and cache so the phone is now dead (luckily not bricked).
On boot it sits at the Samsung title but that's it. I DO have access to both recovery (which is NOT cwm) but also have access to ODIN (huge + IMO).
So, I had the following;
BaseBand: 57 : 10.10 5.FD19
Kernel: 3.0.15-SPH=D710.FD26-XL467198
So naturally my question is what to do next? Back in my evo day's I ran CW7 and was very happy, I see C9 is out but the docs I saw said coming from GB, where I HAD ICS).
So the million dollar question, how do I proceed? Since I have access to ODIN, I would like to either;
a) restore a brand new stock rooted ICS for the g2 (note I am on sprint)
b) move back to either blend, or even more like to try c9.
Thanks as always to the group for all read/replies, out of all my posts/fun, this was my first facepalm!

Didn't think so, I would equate it to an ok linux boot partition but the other partitions were wiped (which is why once I could get into ODIN I knew I would be ok, just wanted to make sure I had the correct stock ROM)

Recovery won't stick with new OTA update.

The CWM or Team Win recoveries will not stick after rebooting the phone with w OTA update. There is a way of making recovery stick on the rooted OTA update. Does anyone know the correct files to freeze or erase for the new recoveries to stick?????
Is there another way of these recoveries to stick besides flashing a custom Rom??

I have root, I have Goo Manager, I'm on a completely stock rooted rom and every time you reboot the new OTA software over writes the custom recovery to the stock Android recovery. If you have a custom rom this will not happen, only on a stock, rooted OTA latest update rom. Others are having the same issue.

I waited for the OTA update then used Odin to flash root, did not reboot after flashing with Odin, pulled battery, then went right to recovery and flashed super user.zip file. I rooted my phone the right way. This is my 2nd SGS3 and didn't have this problem with the 1st one because it had the older build. This is not a problem if you are on a custom build. Only stock, rooted with latest OTA build.

Guys, I have seen this on my GF's GSII (Sprint) as well as on my nexus 7. They are placing a file called recovery-from-boot.p in the /system/ directory that overwrites recovery on every boot. I put a guide a few post up that outlines the issue when I saw it on my GF's phone.
Personally my T-Mobile has been fine, but this scenario I have dealt with before. So don't flame that bad.
The bottom line is that without some custom modding, if you're running the official stock OTA update, stock kernel, etc, standard CWM recovery is not going to stick.
Plain and simple.

I would argue, I have a stock rooted rom, stock kernel and I update to the new OTA update via Kies and TWRP has stuck every boot since then. I even tested it again when I saw this thread as it made me unsure.

Maybe the Kies version is different than the OTA.
Maybe TWRP overwrites or renames/deletes the files causing it.
But you can't argue with my posts, because I said official OTA update, and CWM.

No worries, but for clarification to all the read this thread. The update from Kies is the exact same Official update as the OTA, so if you have not been prompted for the update yet from T-Mo, just install Kies on your PC and plus your phone in, it will prompt you for the update.
I have another guide I made for that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1842142
For the recovery, installing twrp or CWM wont remove the two files I listed. This is done manually. I know on the sprint side, they made a root Super User package that swiped those off specific to the sprint phone. But I opted away from that for my GF as I Prefer SuperSU and am anal retentive about installing something I don't want and uninstalling it.

It's strange, some phones don't have it at all, some only have the .p file, and some have both. I have not found the common denominator yet.

[Q] Help! Kernel Problem!

Hi, i flashed my frosty jellybean v5 rom with the UVLI8.v3 kernel and now my phone won't display anything (but i can hear) past the boot screen, i can still see Odin and CWM. I want to be able flash my old kernel back to fix this problem but i can't even access my internal drive! I tried installing Gs3 stock kernel with Odin by converting it into a .tar file but it's always failing with Odin. I think if i place the file onto the external sd card i can see it with CWM, but i don't have one. Please help!

How can this be done? And if i do install a new rom, Does my kernel turn back to default?
Do you have cwm installed?can you access recovery? If so just restore a nandroid. Hopefully you made one before you started doing something silly like experimenting with kernels you had no idea would work or not. Otherwise just wipe and reflash frosty. The same thing happens to me when I try experimenting with ktoonz on different roms. If its a nogo it will jist black screen and play boot sounds. Or you can download a rom place it on your external and flash from there in recovery. Don't think you really need to odin back.
