Hello Everyone,
At the begin i search for this question in google and in XDA forum, i don't find direct answer!
How can i remove CWM from samsung not 2 completely?
My advice for everyone have Note 2 Don't root it, you don't need to.
i dont think there's a way to just remove it,
i know you can flash a stock rom using odin and it will remove it
I did it with my S3.
After soft bricking my phone, I installed a rooted stock ICS rom in my phone then again installed Rom manager. CWM was not found. I think you can do it also in your Note 2.
Reroot with CF-Root this will put you back stock recovery.

thanks for everyone.
I was recently asked to post some threads here on XDA with the tutorials I have on my site. As time permits I will be posting a series of threads here to the Q&A section that will hopefully answer most questions that might come up.
If you can't find your answer in one of my threads I would highly recommend BluesRulez One Stop FAQ Thread. It is an awesome resource and has answers to just about every question I've seen come up!
__________________
This thread details the process of how to root your device without having to flash a full stock ROM. This method works for the Sprint, Boost and Virgin Samsung Galaxy S2 (SPH-D710, SPH-D710BST and SPH-D710VMUB).
This method uses an Odin One-Click Kernel to install a kernel that includes a Custom Recovery. Once booted into the Custom Recovery you can then flash Superuser which will root your phone and give you Superuser access.
Prerequisites:
A PC running Windows with the Samsung Mobile Drivers Installed. The Samsung Mobile Drivers are available here.
Any One-Click Kernel (preferably from the Android version you will be using, i.e. GB, ICS or JB).
All Sprint One-Click Recovery kernels can be found here.
For this particular tutorial I used the following kernels:
Gingerbread: Chris41g's EL26 Stock CWM5 Repack
Ice Cream Sandwich: Agat63's tFI27 Stock Recovery Repack (rev 2)
Jelly Bean: Agat63's Source-Built GB27 Recovery
Superuser (or SuperSU, MIUI Security, and etc) in a flashable zip, saved on your Internal or External SD Card. For this method I used SuperSU v1.25 (but any SU in a flashable ZIP should work). You can download several different versions here.
Although not required it is recommended that you have Samsung Kies installed on your PC as well. You can download Samsung Kies here.
Side-Effects:
This method will trigger the Yellow Triangle upon start-up and will increase your Odin count.
It will also change your startup screen to look like the International GS2 startup screen.
Both of these side-effects are very easy to overcome due to the hard work of Chainfire and Garwynn. You can get TriangleAway from Chainfire's thread here.
For the rest of the tutorial please visit my site: www.rwilco12.com
Enjoy!

First..well 2nd to you!! Awesome work RW ..your time and dedication is GREATLY appreciated my friend!
Will any of these methods work with FL24? I'm new to rooting Samsungs and am used to simply rooting via exploits through ADB. I have the phone rooted (temp rooted?) via the exploit in Framaroot and am trying to get a custom recovery installed next to flash a ROM. Thanks!

Does this exe. push the kernel/rom for me to flash automatically, or do I add that to the sdcard before I start?

The Kernel One-Click flashes the kernel and recovery together. They are combined on the E4GT.

You might have to turn SU on depending on which version you flashed. Open the app and see if under settings you see something like "Enable SuperUser" and make sure it's enabled.
If that doesn't fix it we may need to try another zip with a different set of symlinks. Either way, we're here for you and will get you squared away.

If you're asking - Can I flash VM builds on the Sprint D710, the answer is - yes. Did it when I tested the builds and everything worked properly.
If you're asking - Can I flash a VM build and be on VM service? Obviously you'll need to be activated to their service and provisioned properly. That's when you'd need to make sure that mmsc/apn/nv data is captured. I don't know if VM is a byod provider. (write that shiz down)

Couple Q's
Has anyone done this yet and how is it working out?
I am already rooted but on the stock FL24 and stock kernel, is that a problem?
Thanks for all this, I have been searching for 2 days and pulling my hair out to get this done. :good:

Yes. Many, many people have used this method successfully.
There's nothing wrong with a stock kernel, it just doesn't have a custom recovery packed into it or any kernel tweaks.
But I am confused... If you're already rooted why are you pulling your hair out?

Well mostly because I'm a noob lol. I heard also that if you do a factory reset with stock kernel you will brick it. But I want the extra options anyway. and really want to flash aJB ROM. Thank you very much for quick response, I shall give this a go in the morning.:thumbup:

K. Before you dive in too much further I would recommend doing a little more research. This device had had issues in the past that have made it very easy to brick. You should be very careful.
As a side note - This thread is a how to root thread but it sounds like you're already rooted. I don't know that there's any reason to reroot your device. You don't actually have to be rooted to get on JB either. You could just flash a one-click of a JB ROM.
Im new to all this so I rooted my Samsung SCH-S960L with a friend and i guess we did something wrong along the way.
The root worked fine, I then wanted to place a rom on it so we used rom manager and got CyanogenMod as it looked like the most popular and safest one. The problem is that it now says my phone is metro pc and the model number is SCH-R530M and I dont have a google play store (could not get it to download). I Just want to figure out how to get it back to normal and its hard to find many forms for sch-S960l or SCH-R530M
If you downloaded a CM rom you also need to flash gapps package. The google apps are not allowed to be used with those types of rom, or built into them because google apps are proprietary and cm is not licensed to use them in the rom. So you have to find and download the appropriate gapps package then you will have play store and other essential google apps.
Somewhat ambitious to jump right to that instead of playing with some TW roms first.

It seems like you flashed a CM built for a different device. Not all SGS3's are the same!!
Another possibility is that you need to update your APNs. There is a flashable universal APN fix for Boost S3 (I'm on Boost), so it couldn't hurt to check around and see if there is one for your carrier.

there will be a root method that will always work for your specific S3....that being said i have noticed that even in the SIII L710 one root method never works 100% of the time for every one hence why there are a couple of way to do so.......now if you look at my device history you can see i have been rooting different ones and each one except for my s3 could be rooted with Kingro Root.....and i used Towel Root to root my S3 the first Time around its an app the works on basically every phone but i had to manually install SuperSU and Busy Box from the play store this method should work on your phone especially if your on 4.4.2

i personally don't know if it will work/harm on JB since when i used it my S3 had already been updated to KK and SuperSU will help regulate what apps have root access by giving you a prompt when a app asks for root access and SuperSU also updates your "Root/SU Binary" so it's on the latest one and Busy Box will also ask SuperSU for root access and will install Busybox 1.22.1 which allows you to use some other root apps like Viper4Andriod

To root all you have to do is flash twrp recovery with heimdall and upon rebooting via the recovery the recovery will ask if you want to root the device.
The replicant os page (I think thats what its called) has a great guide on using heimdall
The command is something like heimdall flash RECOVERY pathtorecovery.img.
Make sure to get the latest version of heimdall, there was a weird bug in slme recent versions where the recovery writes would fail

as far as I know knox shouldnt interfere with the root process.
It would just trip the knox counter but that's about it, from what I read.

I am just curious, I popped into this thread and found some very useful info. However, I am unsure to one thing: The difference between GS3 SPH-L710, and i9300. Then will replicant work for SPH-L710? Many other forums, I have browsed, said stay away if it is not the same model. Is that true, or does it even make a difference? Thanks.
Also turns out that I am entirely too new to this site to even have a link in your quoted text, lol.
