You need Odin installed on your PC, and this file I have attached. Turn your phone off, hold down both volume buttons and hook up the USB cable which is already connected to the machine running Odin. Open Odin, and select PDA, find the file you downloaded from this post and select it. Now click start in Odin & violla !
Ahh k will it wipe my data. The reason I asked is since i'm rooted with a stock ROM with clockwork recovery installed,.will I still get ota's.

No it won't wipe your data.
As far as OTAs go, it has to be stock everything.
seems to be stuck and setup connection, does it take a long time?

According to someone no you can't. You need stock recovery to get OTA.
You can flash back to stock recovery by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1319830
yeah with that button combination im going into clockwork recovery?
You guys ROCK perfect thanks for the help.

No problem buddy, hope all is well.
Is it possible to add clockwork mod recovery on our phones w/o using Odin (directly from the phone) ? I was able to do this one the infuse 4g but I haven't seen any thing in the forums about it. Or a way to root w/o it either. I'm hardly ever home in close to my laptop so this would be a great help.

Yes. Use the thread sfhub inntje development section that is stickied at the top. U can flash the stock kernel with cwm without using Odin.

Trying to be helpful, so...
No, because you need to use ADB (Android debug bridge) to run the zergrush exploit locally on the phone. you cant push the files onto the phone from itself or use the exploit. The best that they have right now is mobile Odin, but thats for flashing files over partitions, not rooting or a installing a recovery..

recovery should be built into the kernel that he is going to (mobile)odin and mobile odin will inject root into the system if the option is selceted. if used severel time and i think it works great. The only thing it failed me on was the modem. Has to do that at a CPU.

Technically he could download the zergrush files to his phone and run them and root... Then download a kernel to the phone and write it with dd

If you can still use your USB port, I would recommend the link that Petrovski80 posted.
If you cannot use your USB port, then it is a bit trickier. You will have to:
1) Ensure you have root and a custom recovery;
2) Lock your bootloader using BootUnlocker
3) Flash the stock kernel in recovery
4) Flash the stock ROM (i.e, the /system folder) in recovery
5) Flash the stock recovery in recovery.
EDIT: I posted how to do this somewhere, but I can't remember where it is now. A quick search should find it.

Not packed the way it is, no. You need an Odin repack. Look in the dev section.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
What the steps in your case should be, by my knowledge:
- Try extracting the .tar containing the actual img files by using an app like ZArchiver on your /sdcard
- Lock the bootloader using Bootunlocker app
- Reboot into recovery
- Flash appropriate img files
- Reboot into Android OS at least once so android will overwrite your custom recovery with stock
Disclaimer: none of this is tested, just theory.
If i can unzip it i think mobile odin can flash it i guess

Hey Guys, coming from the Samsung galaxy nexus. Receiving my s4 in a few days.

1.Root using motochopper
2. Install goo manager
3. Install TWRP
4. Funfun
Are those the correct steps? Thanks!

Did doing it that way change your system status in Odin mode? I Odin'ed TWRP and then rooted. Now I have a system status of Custom instead of Official.

If u have a custom recovery the status will always say custom. Only flashing back to stock through odin will make it official again.

I'm used to my Galaxy S2 I guess. It never said custom. Tried Odin k0ane's stock file. Still says custom. I thought I was going to have to return the phone. It started using hotspot data for all data. I was almost to my 500 meg limit. A factory reset fixed it and Tmo gave me an extra 2gb hotspot data for this month only for free.
What's the difference between custom and official?

Official is all stock factory system. Custom means you altered the system and your warranty is probably void. That's why people try to flash back to stock if they need to get their phone repaired or replaced.
I see. Coming from the galaxy nexus, so much to learn..
Also, where can I get the samsung USB Drivers to do the motochopper?

Take a look ant the N2 and S3 forums - they have threads on returning to stock and i am sure we will see one here - AS SOON as and only when an official Samsung TMo firmware is available.
If you break or brick your device before then you will have to wait before sending it in to Samsung or TMo.

I can't believe sammobile hasn't gotten the firmwares posted yet. Isn't this unusual? Doesn't Samsung usually release the firmware almost immediately?
Does anyone know why that when I download something to my internal sd card and then boot into twrp and try to install it the file is missing in the download folder. Am I doing something wrong? i'm coming from cwm and things are a lot different. Any help would be great thanks
