If you want to go back to completely stock unrooted, with stock recovey, you will need to use Odin to flash a stock rom. Why are you wanting to stay away from Odin? It's even easier to use than CWM.

That's from not reading or not paying attention to what you're doing. It's very simple if you take a few minutes to read

When it comes to this phone Odin is your best friend and ONLY way to restore stock recovery. Look here and read a few times you shouldnt have any problems http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513359 if you rooted your phone you shouldnt have any problems unrooting it.
I think flashing back and using the zip file is quicker I done it had to send my phone back under warranty and got my replacement everything worked just fine they never knew I was rooted but what do I know

Odin is the way my friend, and I wouldn't trust anything from a site called GalaxyS2root or whatever. We have the best, most knowledgeable community and devs on earth here. Odin will not fail you my friend, don't let the few retards who refused to read scare you off.

Just saying for a easier way I've done it so I know it works it unroots your phone and they can't tell anything has happened to it if people don't know what they are doing with odin I've used it before it's trusted but it's retard proof if that helps you sleep dude :what:

Although I agree with your answer to use ODIN, I just wanted to point out that GalaxyS2root is a legit site run by XDA Senior Member Zedomax. He roots phones and flashes ROM's for a living. Peace.

Well now there is an update zip file that has the updated stock ROM for gingerbread on galaxys2root and it does use Odin so if you brick your device or just want to sent it back you can

If you are that afraid of doing it, pay someone else to do it.
That way if they brick it (they aren't), you can sue them or something.

I paid to get mine rooted. I never had a good Samsung before. People pay me to root/flash phones.

Do what previous post said. Odin back to stock will not trigger the flash counter. If you are paranoid, there is a sticky that shows you how to reset your flash counter.
I know this has already been asked but I can't find the thread I got this when I updated to jellybean thru Odin I've even odind back to 2.3.6 stock twice I've wiped everything many times then instead of oding back to jellybean I installed twrp and flashed jmt 3 and it still is showing up I don't understand does anyone else know why its doing this thanks in advance! Or how to get rid of it

You need to use Dark side Super wipe. It's in the development section.
Go into recovery flash the zip then flash your room again. Should solve your problem.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
Yup even used the dark side wipe...or do you mean Jamison's super wipe?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
You can try Jamisons. It may help

This is the first time I've seen something like this on the t989. No idea what to to tell you except that it must be touchwiz related, since PAC ROM didn't display the same issue.

This has been reported on quite a bit. Odin flashing back to ICS will fix the issue but any Jelly Bean flash thereafter with a rom based on stock 4.1.2 will bring back the black type. My work around was to flash back to stock ICS and then load CyanogenMod 10.0. What is odd is that some phones will take odin upgrade from ICS and even from GB to the new stock JB with no problem. Haven't figured out why though. I'm thinking there is something in the new kernal included in the UVMC6 rom.
So for the people that updated to 4.3 and run ROMs such as s3rx , dandroid, infamous, etc... Did you guys not care about flash counter and warranty and just updated anyway. Or have no intentions of going to anything lower than 4.3 because risk of brick.

With 4.3 and 4.4 around the corner I am sure I will find one I like. And my phone is more then 1 year old so not worried a out the warrenty.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You can still go below 4.3 but only by flashing the ROM, not firmware
