hello, I just want to know if it is possible to install a custom kernel such as ktoonsez kt747. Is it possible to do this using odin? My galaxy s3 is fully stock but has root.
Thanks,
You will need to install a custom recovery first, then flash away.

You won't lose 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.
this is XXXDDDAAA
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 used kies to go back to stock and then rerooted. when I tried to install a tw kernel I got a soft brick. Unlike a custom ROM you can not just do a recovery back to before so I am afraid to try another kernel till I know.
stock rom w/custom tw kernel

I have a rooted AT&T galaxy s3, rooted with a custom kernel. I also have twrp and have been able to do a backup (nandroid backup) of the stock rom with stock kernel and stock rom with custom kernel. Sounds like you made sure the kernel specifically states TW, so not sure why you had this problem but I have used it...did you install custom recovery ?
I'm only rooted... on the STOCK firmware
I'd like to install that kernel:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2415862
But it says: ONLY SUPPORTS Android 4.2.2 SAMSUNG STOCK BASED ROM
Does it mean that I won't be able to install a custom ROM after flashing the kernel??
Or it just mean that I must be on STOCK to use it?
Also, I'll use that recovery: PhilZ 5 recovery to flash the kernel: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2287802
is it OK?? or I should use TWRP (I read that TWRP is better than CWM)
Another Q:
If I had problem with the kernel, is flashing the STOCK one easy?
(I want a link to a stock kernel of N5110 just to be safe)
Finally, would flashing kernel reset my device and wipe all of my data?
Thanks in advance
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.
