I have a bell note 2, and i recently rooted the stock rom installed CWM made a nandroid and then flashed to cleanRom. I was wondering if i revert back with the nandroid do a triangle away and de-root with superSU will i be back to bell stock rom/kernel/modem with 0 on the flash counter and sowing device status as normal for warranty purposes?
I looked around but could not find a definite answer. Thanks
Not quite. You will still have a custom recovery installed. You can revert fully to stock using the Note II tool kit

Ya should be
I personally used Odin to flash stock recovery and i was right back to stock! Works like a charm.
so if you flash a stock recovery in odin the flash counter resets to 0?
No its able to be set to zero
Follow steps from here.

I accidentally flashed CWM 6. How can I flash CWM 5? Can I go over it with ODIN for an automatic downgrade or do I need to flash back to stock first? Ultimate goal is to root (phone is not rooted yet) that install Cyanogenmod. Thanks.

What do you mean accidentally flashed? Unless I'm missing something here, why don't you just use CWM 6 to flash CM?
I personally use twrp...but u can always find the tar file on xda and flash in odin

I used odin downloader to reflash the cwm recovery 5 on a Samsung Galaxy FiT. Installed cwm 6 to get that original 4.4.2 firmware but i wasn't satisfied of it, and i went back to cwm 5 to install another custom firmware cuz cwm 6 wouldn't allow me (error: Status 7).

I don't understand why you want to downgrade...philz latest has zero issues flashing any ROM..kk or not. There are no status 7 issues with his latest. So do yourself a favor and download his latest, flash whichever ROM you wish (which 90% of them are already rooted) and profit. If you want to backup your apps before just flash super su and you will be rooted. If you are on mk3 the process may a little more difficult but its still easy. Google is your friend man.

How do you propose to reset the counter with the current issue with latest jb ? Its always stuck at one, so do you think I should flash stock kernel + recovery before doing anything?

Really no matter what, everytime i check download mode my count stays at one and i found out this is because of the kernel and recovery. My last question is do you know where I can find the latest kernel and recovery to flash separately? Ive been looking and no luck and still am but thank you for your help thus far

hi ,i have TWRP , i unrooted my phone, how can i root it again , my USB port is not working .. Is there a file just to load to SD card and proceed from there?
If you already have TWRP, then all you need is to flash a superuser or supersu zip file through the recovery, and you are rooted. All you need to do is put it on your SD card.

You cannot completely backup a stock GS3 without root. The most you can do is backup your app installs (not settings), your text messages, contacts, and a few other things. You could us MyBackup for that, but system and app settings, as well as backing up the entire ROM requires root.
EDIT: Sorry, doing too many things at once, to backup your ROM, you would have to flash a custom Recovery through Odin (not mobile Odin), and then do a backup through that Recovery.
If you're looking to put the stock ROM back your rooted phone, there is no need to root a stock phone that isnt rooted, back up the stock ROM to flash it over to the phone you're trying to send in...
Download the stock ROM from XDA and flash it back onto the rooted phone making sure you check to make sure you didnt trip the ROM counter.
Check the DEV section for the stock ROMs. They are in there.

Ok.. here you go-
1. Download pre-rooted dmg1 stock rom from dr.ketan's thread. Install it from odin PDA tab. If you are stuck on the initial boot screen, go to stock recovery and reset/clear data (warning- this will also wipe you personal data on the internal memory, make sure you backup important stuff)
2. Install triangle away android app and reset the custom counter in the bootloader to zero... and then dont install a custom recovery because even after installing the recovery, if you set the counter to zero, then you'll have it again to '1' everytime you boot your phone because the bootloader detects the custom recovery during boot
3. Whenever you want to claim your warranty, go to superSU app and go to 'unroot'..
You'll have full stock dmg1 (4.1.2) n7100 and ready to claim warranty :thumbup:

thank you so much
your help seems good , just that im dumb.
can you please point me towards any preexisting thread if any which has a detailed walk through information how to go back to stock rom from any custom rom
Hello, I am currently rooted and have CWM 6.0.4.3. installed. I'm on CM11 but want to go back to stock.. Is there an easy way to keep root and go back to stock. Want stock for a few functions that ROMS dont seem to be offering but can keep root and CWM ??
Thanks.
Which phone do you have? You could try flashing a pre-rooted stock ROM via Odin. Then use Odin to flash CWM.
Bt its better to firstly install ur stock rom and then again root it as it takes no longer than 5 mins

Ok perfect, thats what I was looking for. Phone btw is S3 - d2att - SGH i747) Sounds good to install the stock rom and re-root.. I'm sure its here but I have searched everywhere to find a tutorial on this and I cannot find a straight answer.
Would you mind giving me the steps or pointing me to a thread that explains how to and has the files in need to download ?

Do you know if there is a step by step on this somewhere ? I dont mind going back to complete stock.. I can just re-root and flash CWM after.
OR
Maybe you could just answer the bigger question : the reason I want to go back to stock is I need to use MHL/HDMI which CM11 doesnt support. I dont want to go back to stock, I would rather even go to another ROM that supports mhl/hdmi.. but if I have to go to stock, than so be it.?
Were you running the stock AT&T 4.3 ROM before you switched to CM11?

Since you installed a custom recovery, that would have tripped the Knox counter which voids the warranty. It's not a problem if the phone is working properly.
Did you update to 4.3 or did it come with 4.3?
You may be better off installing a pre-rooted ROM.

It was quite some time ago but I believe I was on ICS 4.0.. and switch to CM from there. Im not worried about the counter for warranty, that's expired on my unit anyways. I just want to be able to use MHL/HDMI function.. so if fine with flashing pre-rooted.. or stock.. or a different ROM that support MHL/HDMI. Can you recommend the easiest route ?

I asked about 4.3 because the 4.3 bootloader cannot be downloaded. Flashing via mobile Odin will not touch the bootloader or modem.
You could try a pre-rooted rom and then flash a custom recovery via Odin.

Ok thanks, I will do that. 1 thing I'm not quite sure of is the bootloader situation ? In the first tutorial there is a note : Flashing a prior bootloader can hard/soft brick your device. How do I know ?
I see the steps as:
Extract tar file you downloaded.
Use Odin, put phone into download mode [with phone off, hold vol. down + home + power ], connect to computer and open Odin.
once in odin click the PDA field and select the tar file
Leave Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checked.
click start and when done let phone reboot.
If you just want a stock, rooted phone with no custom recovery, no plans to flash custom roms, etc. then you can stop HERE.
For my situation, is it just that easy ?
Before flashing, verify the version of your bootloader.

OK I have made an effort to go read and figure out how to find out what version of bootloader on my own.. But i cannot find ? Any chance you know... And could help?
You mentioned your have the i747 and Rogers. Do you have the AT&T s3 (i747) or Rogers/Bell/Telus s3 (i747m)?
What is the most recent stock ROM you had on your phone?
Hey. I got the i747m. As for what was the last stock ROM I had, can't say. I know when I bought the phone it was ICS and I had received and update to jellybean.. But them went to cm10. The tutorial I followed told me had me back everything up, which I did. Have it in a file somewhere on my comp, would that tell me ?

If you are sure you have the Rogers i747m and you have never loaded a stock Rogers 4.3 ROM onto your phone, you could use desktop Odin to flash a pre-rooted 4.1.2 ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426.
Flashing the pre-rooted 4.1.2 ROM will return the phone to completely stock, wipe out all installed apps and data, and you will have root. I do not recommend flashing the Rogers 4.3 pre-rooted ROM from the link.
Once you are able to boot into the phone and set things up, you can flash Philz Touch from Odin which will give you a custom recovery on a rooted stock 4.1.2 ROM.
