Odin or not odin?

Hi to u all. I need a little help in according with unroot procedure.
Well, I rooted my device without odin, but using a tool with mac, so flahing recovery.img with terminal and then flashing supersu with cwmd.
Right. Phone works good. I am still with stock rom. I would like to unroot the device for my reasons.
Could I unroot without odin. Having mac I am enable to run it. I read on play store that I can reset numbers of flashes and if I delete supersu, it become unrooted. But, with this procedure the device will give a state "custom" as well. So.....if someone could help me I will appriciate a lot

Note 2 "died"?

Hi guys.
Someone help me. Was having problems with my note 2 switching off by itself so tried factory reset. While the reset was in progress I springed my battery off by mistake. The phone now just reboots from "Samsung galaxy note 2 n7100" then shows the Android robot, then back to"Samsung galaxy note 2 n7100"....
Cannot boot into recover but can get to download mode. Tried reinstalling another rom (not custom) via odin but outcome is same as above.
Is my phone a write-off? The phone is currently not even being recognised by the computer. ..thought it was usb drivers but not the case. Reinstalled drivers and my friends phone is recognized very well.
Kies does not even detect the phone.
Please help guys.

Hi. Sorry for bothering again. The site you referred me to had a Mexican telcel rom. I am using the international version of note 2. It's it fine to Flash this rom? Secondly, I did not see any PIT file links. Might you have a link to this?
Thanks

Well this link has most of the roms..
Try a different usb port if phone is not detected in download mode & exit kies while using odin!

Thanks.

<Q> about upgrading firmware on note2 n7100

I am currently running on XXDMC3 android 4.1.2 version on device and i want to upgrade it new the update available.........will i loose my root access after upgrading? Or custom recovery?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

If you mean stock update then yes
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

So what can be done so we do don't lose root?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium

Mobile Odin can be set to inject root while flashing - but ...
If you are pre 4.12 and need to fix the SDS problem then apparently Mobile Odin doesn't flash the boot which is needed.
So if you are pre 4.12 and need the protection from SDS, then just flash and re-root it with CF Autoroot (takes about 5 minutes)

Or look at my signature download that prerooted rom OR our beloved dr.ketans prerooted rom x)
Ive used his guide to make a prerooted rom. U will gain root access + warranty

Mobile Odin is an app created by Chainfire , it's in the Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro&feature=search_result
It allows you to flash directly on your device without a PC. It flashes from the SD Card directly.
One of the features it includes is "Everroot". This injects root directly into any new firmware that you flash.

[Q] is it possible to flash custom recovery from Mobile Odin?

Can anybody Tryed flashing custom recovery from Mobile Odin?
If so, then it's possible to flash philz recovery from mobile odin (I don't have PC around )

Sure you can flash any recovery via mobile odin pro. You will download and flash the tar file not the zip file (the same as pc odin). 4 example 4 latest philz recovery u will flash the file

why not ?
Mobile ODIN [PRO] is in a way replacement of the PC version, or might even better in certain aspects.
As mentioned earlier, you can just flash the .TAR or .MD5 file provided from Philz download page.
Same thing applied if you want to flash stock ROM (in .TAR / .MD5) from Mobile ODIN [PRO].
Good luck.

Yes, but one must use .tar archive instead of .img files.

Made an account just to reply to this. I was in the same boat, and tried that. Phone rebooted but couldn't take OTA. When it restarted after failed OTA install, went into bootloop. Had to reflash stock through ODIN and problem solved. Sorry man.

So Im running stock recovery and stock rooted 4.4. So that means I either wait for lollipop on Kies or Odin back to stock then take the OTA.

I'm in the same boat

Not sure about this but Odin to stock and taking update will keep all your data if that is what you are worried about. Only issue is you might not be as smooth keeping your settings. I had some fc's and lag. So I reset to factory and restored apps and there was a huge speed and smoothness increase.

Im planning on reseting, trying to maintain setup on a major update always causes lag.
