I was using odin to flash cwm in order to root my s3 and instead of clicking pda I clicked bootloader and flashed it. Phone still works but in recovery it cannot mount the sdcard int or ext to root. How can I flash back to stock bootloader? I rooted before but by accident and in a rush I clicked bootloader and not pda. Please help thanks

Is it the recovery.img or recovery.tar file I need to flash under bootloader?

Can I just flash stock rom via odin? Someone surely knows the answer.

Freezas stock rooted thread, just adb sideload the md4firmware.zip file and flash.
I can't find a thread with that subject. Any link? Thanks

There apparently was some sort of update by sprint that kept cwm recovery from mounting sdcard and internal memory. There is a fixed recovery method on xda somewhere that allowes access so I then flashed the stock rom

I have done bricking my phone similarly a couple of times but ODIN saved me. I had to install the stock recovery and stock ROM a couple of time repeatedly to get it back to working state. Then, installed the CWM recovery and rooted the phone.
Cwm only worked once for me. Next time I went to used it it would say could not mount sd card or even the int. After reading on here there was a post about it and someone modified it so it would mount and could be used. Saved my ass lol

Hey dvtmg, which root method did you use? Most likely, you have the stock android recovery which will not allow you to do a nandroid backup, or flash roms. You will need a custom recovery (CWM, Rogue, ACS) to begin either of those processes.

If you run auto root I think it's option 3 to add cwm. Not sure though but check it out.

Yes option 3 is for installing CWM only. As far as a rom I would recommend calk's it will give you the features you are looking for.

Im running a stock rom and kernel with a root using th exynos abuse app. I tried then flashing cwm using mobile odin. Now if I boot into recovery the initial GN2 screen with the model name flashes up before jumping all over the screen and going blank. I hold the power button down and it happens a second time before it boots normally on the third go.

So using mobile odin or cwm to flash twrp works differently than odin on pc?

I have used to flash zip many times
Copy flashable zip to sd card (int/ext)
Open mobile Odin
Select ota/update zip
Point to zip you have copied
Flash.

You can use Galaxy Note 2 toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956)
Use it to flash back to stock recovery and then use the tool again to flash to cwm.
