My nexus is rooted with 4.2.1 stock firmware and have CWM recovery.
I want to flash purity 3.1 rom.
Do I need to deodex first or just flash the zip file?
Just backup then flash
Don't forget to wipe.

Can some one guide me for flashing stock rom and stock recovery.
Can I flash the stock ROM over ICS? If so, does it wipe out root?
Hello. I currently have omega rom installed with cwm. I want to flash a stock rom to see if I can enable HD voice on that.
My question is: can I install a stock rom on a custom recovery? Or do I have to revert to the original stock recovery
You need to flash stock rom via odin. Recovery has no role here.

Ok.so there will be no issues with cwm installed? But the cwm will remain after the flash of the stock rom? I want to get back on omega rom after testing.
Thank you.
No.
Cwm would be deleted which can be reinstalled.

I'm currently running custom 4.3 ROMS on my i747m with MK5 bootloader and I'm looking to flash 4.3 stock. I want to return to stock and use DE-SAMSUNGNIZER to de-bloat stock. Is this possible? Or will I lose ROOT and be unable to flash any other custom ROMS.
Thanks for the help!
I suppose you could flash a pre-rooted rom via Odin.
Root is not required to flash custom ROMs, using a custom recovery should do the trick.

Would you recommend using a pre-rooted & deodexed ROM flashed via CWM/TWRP or using the Sasktel Image flashed via Odin?
Thanks for your help audit13
I have a bell s3 so I always just flash the pre_rooted stock image and a custom recovery. By having root, I can uninstall the bloated apps.
I don't think the pre_rooted ROM I use is deodexed.
hey guys,
i will be flashing Echoe Zen Rom v3 [2.20.40.165] which is the latest rom & will then flash the latest kernel available (Ael Zen v3.5) which was released yesterday... The only doubt i have here is if i flash this rom will be able to flash the latest stock firmware from asus? and if yes how can i flash it... I have seen people having issues with twrp & updating stuff so do i also have to edit the updater script? Please someone enlighten me on this issue of updating to latest stock rom after flashing echoe rom... I know the flashing of entire rom i.e boot.img, system.img etc with adb but is there any other way like ota or flashing directly of stock rom via twrp? i dont wanna edit the updater script & stuff everytime we get an update...
The best way back to complete stock is to use root with CWM recovery and flash the stock zip from your external SD card as the phone goes back to complete stock. Bootloader is locked again after you do this.
