Like fastboot boot twarp and get everything patched?
No

Is there a way that I can remove the root on my phone? I used Fresh Kitchen to root it. But I was just curious as to if there was a way to remove the root and return everything back to stock. Any help? Thanks :]]
yes , you can un-rooting the dvice by flashing the Original recovry
the first time that you rooting the device by flashing the recovery
like ..
recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2H image recovry, Automatically the
device will made a recovry image of the Original flash recovery
if you have the Original flash recovery flash it and the rooting will be over
and the device will be return back to stock
i hope i helped you
I have an R800i that is factory sim unlocked. It is rooted, using the zergrush exploit, but I havn't installed any recovery or tried to boot into recovery. Does this mean that the bootloader is unlocked?
Can I install a recovery using the auto installer method? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1437840) Will this stop my phone from booting?, as I have heard that the recovery is installed on the kernal or something, and you need to flash a kernal to access recovery and boot up

Click to collapse
If you have not attempted to unlock your bootloader, it is not unlocked.
But since you have a factory unlocked R800i, you can unlock your bootloader from here.
If your bootloader if unlocked you can flash custom kernels, and custom recoveries.
However, ClockworkMod Recovery is accessible from the auto-installer, and does not require an unlocked bootloader/custom kernel.
So if I use the auto installer, the stock rom will still boot. If I flash a rom from that recovery, will the recovery still be there afterward seeing as it is on the system part of the stock rom. Will a custom rom include the recovery seeing as it includes the kernal?
Hello all,
So, I decided to root my device when I found that after 4.4.4 update, hboot was updated and the command:
Code:
fastboot boot some_custom_recovery.img
so I can boot a temp recovery was disabled, I would like to ask, will actually flashing a custom recovery using:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
work? If after flashing a custom recovery then flashing SuperSU then flashing stock recovery, will I be able to get OTA updates? And what is the worst scenario here as I have read that people get stuck with boot loops and other problems here and there?
Thanks in advance..
Yes you can flash custom recovery,SuperSU and than flash back to stock recovery and still take OTA's .now you wouldn't want to change anything else like write permission sdcardfix app as it will modify your platform.xml and an OTA will fail for that
Hey I'm looking to flash a custom Rom because I'm not a fan of Asus skin... From my research I don't need to root the phone, is that correct?
I only need to unlock bootloader and flash twrp.
ofc you can ..if you have a custom recovery
I have my phone unlocked. I don't have PC.
Is there any way we can flash twrp from stock recovery or any other way.
Phone is running on miui dev rom which is not rooted.
Is there any way we can root the device with stock recovery.
I may be silly, excuse me for that.
no it's not possible
