Yep, just download the stock ROM, flash with Odin. That will overwrite the custom recovery, remove root, and go back to an untainted Touchwiz stock ROM. If you have an incremented flash counter, be sure to solve it before you flash back to stock. Triangle Away can reset the counter to 0, but requries root. Flashing back to stock with Odin will not (in my experience) increment your counter. So after flashing your phone will be virgin again.

You can use the TAR file to flash a stock ROM on your phone using ODIN on your PC, with your phone in Download mode. For example, mrRobinson's pre-rooted stock ROMs are to be flashed using ODIN.
(But yes, if you flash a mrRobinson's stock ROM using ODIN [or an original stock ROM], it will overwrite your custom recovery with the stock one, so you would have to reinstall a custom recovery once the rooted stock ROM is flashed.)

You could try the image in Page 4 of the thread below for the Odin flashable *.tar file to get back to stock 4.3 ...

I have, however, always found it is tidier to use (custom) recovery and the instructions in the thread below ...

I am presuming, of course, that we are both talking about the AT&T i747 here.

[Q] Questions about going back to stock.

Hey guys,
I was running Cyanogenmod 11 for a while which I installed using the automatic tool online. During the summer I flashed Dirty Unicorns but I have issues with the camera and random rebooting. I just got a Galaxy Gear for Christmas and I've read that its only compatible with touchwiz roms.
I'm trying to go back to stock and I am ok with losing my root access.
I have an SGH-1747m on Baseband I747MVLUEMK5 and my service provider is Bell. The android version is 4.4.4 currently. Whats the easiest method to do this? I've read some concerning information that going back to an earlier version of android will soft brick your phone, but I believe the most current Bell firmware is still in Jelly Bean.
Is it as easy as downloading the correct firmware and flashing it using Clockworkmod Recovery?
Thanks
You should download the stock ROM from sammobile.com and flash it in Odin to get back to stock.

The latest version available for my baseband is 4.3. Will I run into problems going from 4.4.4 to 4.3?
Flashing in Odin will flash everything, including the bootloader and modem.

Thanks. So if I'm understanding correctly I just flash the latest firmware released by my carrier (4.4.2)? Is there anything else to watch out for when choosing the firmware?
Also, before flashing should I make a backup with Clockwork Recovery or any other program? Will Clockwork Recovery still be present after flashing with ODIN?

Yes, flash the latest firmware for your phone. Be sure it's firmware for the i747m and not anything else. Always make a backup if you ever screw up or want to go back to where you are now. You will lose everything by flashing the stock firmware with ODIN, even clockwork mod recovery.
Thanks. When I made a backup before going to Dirty Unicorns I used Clockwork Recovery. If Clockwork will be deleted by flashing with ODIN, how would I utilize that backup if I needed it? Should I use another program to back up?
EDIT: I flashed it and everything went smoothly. Sincere thanks to everyone who gave me help!
