[Q] I can't go back to touchwiz - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

OK I'm trying to go back since in returning the phone back to sprint and it won't let me on twrp when I try to install it it just says fail!

What exactly are you trying to flash in recovery?

I was trying to return to stock so I got cnexus deodex rooted mk3 stock ROM and twrp won't install it it just says failed and I tried clockwork and it aborts then when I went back to twrp and tried to restore my nandroid it won't restore the data it would fail and I could only rainfall pacman and yeah

If you're taking it back to sprint why not just use Odin

They're gonna see that it's rooted if you're taking it in for fixing, but TWRP is known to have problems with non-AOSP ROMs... That's the main reason I don't use it.

You don't need a computer to get root, it's not a requirement.
You need to download an app from the play store called Mobile Odin, with that you
can odin flash the required file to get root as well as flash the required cwm zip file
which is required to get root in the galaxy S4.
Thank you.

Yes, i'm pretty sure you're gonna need a computer to root. I don't even think mobile odin is compatible with our phone yet. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.
The other guy is high, you need to be rooted to use mobile Odin, there is no way of rooting this phone without a computer, sucks I know.

It seems that your English is not that good. To avoid errors, your ODIN must look like this.

Well all right then.
If you cannot enter recovery after a proper stock rom flash, that's a bad news.
I agree with the rest. When you flash stock you should be able to access recovery. If not this is a big problem. I say try flashing either a newer stock rom or go back to square one and start all over from original stock. Some times that is the best way to solve your problems.

At&t note 2 stock 4.1.2 recovery

I was hoping someone could get me the stock recovery... my phone is rooted and I have no computer anymore, it is the only thing I need just in case to return my phone to stock if I ever need it. I haven't flashed a custom rom since I got my note 2... I hope someone can help me I can't find it anywhere for the at&t version... thanks to any one who can help me by getting it for me...

I would not recommend trying that, CF-Auto-Root uses a temporary modded recovery to root the device. It may cause a boot loop if it doesn't get the other files it needs. I do not know for sure tbh
Thanks I appreciate the feed back, I gave it a try though work just fine for me it flashed just the stock recovery like I wanted it to c: so im pretty happy about it

Update from official (but rooted) 4.2.2 to official 4.4.2?

I tried searching with no success, so anywho...
I want to update someone's GS4 (4.2.2, stock T-Mobile/Samsung ROM) to the official 4.4.2 one, but obviously can't do that since the phone was rooted with CF-Auto-Root:

I was told that updating via Kies should work fine without losing any data. Is this true? I don't care about rooting afterwards. I actually just unrooted via SuperSU's full unroot option, but that still results in the same message as in the screenshot above.
You need to Odin the stock 4.2 image or 4.3 image. Then you will be able to accept the update.
You could also just Odin the stock 4.4 image.
All 3 stock images can be found at sammobile.com :

Kies wouldn't be able to safely update? Or is that essentially what Odin does in this case?
I wouldn't use kies.

So this (Odin) should basically just manually install the update without losing anything? I didn't do hardly anything while rooted so hopefully that won't cause any problems.

Why would you avoid Kies? Just curious.
It can crash in the middle.

Finally connected a 4.2.2 GS4 to Kies:
Really tempted to just go for it, but still afraid that something will go wrong. To reiterate, the phone was simply rooted with CF-Auto-Root and unrooted with SuperSU.
I'd go for it. Since I last posted about this I have changed my mind because I've seen people in your situation using kies successfully to update.
Just make sure your phone is fully charged.
