Just a quick question. I am on the stock rooted EL29 rom. I used ODIN to do so. What I'm wondering is if there is a way to unroot without a computer. Mine crashed and I don't really have use of one. Any info would be appreciated.
one of the only ways I know is to have first used the auto root method. since you flashed an already rooted I would say mobile odin from the market would be the way to go and flash a stock tar. not rooted.

Hi i currently have stock rom but have it rooted. Can someone provide me with a link to update my phone to the new update w/root or let me know what I need to do? Thanks!
Also I am not sure if I am running ext or rfs can some tell me how to figure that out?
A great place to start learning about modding the Epic are the QBKing77 videos on youtube. Just search for them or check out the links to his videos in most of the OPs in the development section. There are a ton of custom roms to play with right now, as well as the stock EI22 Gingerbread rom that came out OTA.
Thanks as I said though I am already rooted but unsure if its ext 4 or RFS I need help figuring that out and then I think I can just odin it from their.
I wish to stay on stock.
Might I suggest taking a look at the MostlyStockROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1339579
You can even go to the "old links" and choose to download the deodexed only first release which is Stock + doedexed + root. Or choose one of the newer releases which has the fixes/features you want.
If you want EI22 Fully Stock then I believe you will need to unroot your existing install and install the OWA. I haven't seen a stock ODIN method but may have missed it.
I see. How do I unroot my phone?
odin back to stock ec05.
ok so then how do I root my phone after going back to stock updating then what?
Or couldn't I just do a factory reset then update?

Once you odin back to stock ec05, it'll do the OTA update onto ei22. That's how I did my phone. Warning, once you odin back, you'll lose all your app and data.
I'm not worried about that I have titanium back up pro. their has got to be a easier way to do this though. Before All I had to do was Odin to the next update and that was it (eco5) now I have to odin back to stock remove root then update and then reroot...... thats a lot of work.
Is their a way to do this without un-rooting my phone?
Also can someone shoot me a link to a tutorial on going back to stock?
Also once root is removed I take it I would have to re root it. (this is ridiculous un root, update, reroot)
So what DO i do to re-root it?

you can just download the file and install it using CWM but i'm 0 for 2 with this method.

Follow the video that babystewie posted. I've used it twice, both succeeding with no issues what so ever. It will allow you to update to GB with root, but will give you a stock version of GB. If you're interested in rooting GB as well, check the video description and there's some more videos.
There are a lot of mostly stock roms or even just a cwm flashable ei22 in the development section. You'll keep root and won't have to go through using odin so many times.
what do you mean a stock version of gingerbread? also I already have clockwork if that helps does it mean i have ti do anything different if i want to keep root?
There really is no completely stock Gingerbread ROMs because we don't have the tar file for the Odin flash. There are several ROMs in the Development thread (where the ROMs are) that are mostly stock. You can simply flash one of those, and if you want the EI22 modem, you can flash the EC05 to EI22 modem updater found in the stickies in development. I recommend you start here:

So two questions.. how did my phone get unrooted? And more importantly how do I root it safely again? I was looking at the auto-root tool and it says in the instructions it's not for newer versions. That's why I ask what's the safest way to root again, thanks guys!
What exactly did you flash on? Sounds like you flashed a non rooted fi03. Do you want to just have rooted fi03?
I'm running ICS 4.0.4 I had FH13 and I was rooted, I flashed to the FI03 version and all the sudden I was trying to run a rooted app and it said my phone wasn't rooted?! So yeah wondering if that's just a side effect of flashing, and again the safest way to get it rooted again.

@Bannjio Thanks given! Appreciated!
Glad I could help
I am super sorry if this has been covered, but I have indeed searched, several sites, and I haven't found anything on my specific problem. I had my Galaxy S3 rooted for a time then decided to unroot it. The unroot worked and the phone status now says "normal," but I still cannot receive any OTA updates and my flash counter does not say "0." I suppose my first question is would resetting the flash counter solve the problem with getting the updates? And if so, How can I go about doing that with an already unrooted phone? I searched through the thread here:

- but was not allowed to post in it since I'm a noob. Thanks for any help.
Use triangle away to reset the flash counter, however you will need to reroot to run triangle away and then unroot again once your finished.
Could always PM the OP of the thread. Sure he wouldnt mind :laugh: That being said, flash the jb version of that rom. Youll be up to date w/ no root and a counter at 0.
Thanks. I'll reroot then follow that thread's guide and use the rom files linked. I know enough about rooting to root, but if I ever run into an issue, I have no idea what I'm doing. We all appreciate your guys' help!
Stupid question, but I want to be sure. I can easily root, then use the triangle away app. But, when I go to unroot, am I just using the JB.zip file from the above mentioned thread and that itself will unroot? Or do I unroot completely first then flash that zip?
Sorry, maybe is offtopic but I need this information badly...
I rooted my GS3 and installed some Incredible HD rom...now, I wanted to get back to stock rom! So, I restored to my Stock rom which I previously backed up in clockwork recovery...Now I have a stock rom but UNABLE to update my phone via KIES or OTA????? It sais > your device curred fw isnt supported ....
What should I do? Should I reset my flash counter or unroot it first before update or what???
THANKSSSS
Ok,
So I recently updated to the stock 4.1.2 image, and I wanted to root because I have always read it was best to have the latest base before rooting. I was able to root using the guides on here, but everything kept force closing and i was unable to do anything with the phone, so i went back to stock because of the problems. What i think was happening was that the rooted image I was using was 4.1.1, and i need 4.1.2.
Could anyone point me to where the 4.1.2 image is that i need to root is so that i can root correctly?
Well, I don't know which method you used before or how you plan on rooting now, but on 4.1.2,
Cf auto root still works.
Casual root still works.
Flashing recovery through Odin then supersu through recovery still works,
I've done them all.
What doesn't work is the No Tripping the flash counter (by flashing the root injected image) root, rooting with motochopper, or the root your phone with your phone root.
You probably know that you need Odin (3.07 preferably) no matter what you do, except I think for Casual;
and also yes you probably flashed a 4.1.1 image over your 4.1.2 data, but a factory reset should have fixed that.
They also have a rooted stock Rom somewhere in the development section if you want it, once you have a custom recovery.

I rooted my T-Mobile GS4 a while back (when I had a windows PC) now I have macbook and I cant use Odin on it. Is there way I can just go back to 4.2 without unrooting my phone?
Mobile Odin, flash stock Rom tar but select Everoot option too keep root.
There's a couple of threads to show how to use Odin on a Mac.

Is root all you've done? Like are you on the stock ROM still?
If so you can always just uninstall Super User.
Of course this won't restore the stock recovery or reset your flash counter. But it will remove root access.
It all depends on how much you want to unroot and what you are trying to accomplish by it.
