Do i need to unroot my device first.. i want to flash my device to 4.1 stock firmware, or wipe dalvik cache?..
no need to root - just flash via Odin.

my phone is currently rooted, i meant should i unroot before flashing?
whenever I flash a stock firmware via odin my phone gets unrooted automaticaly
I had the same question but after searching a bit, I was informed I could just flash using Odin. Most likely lose root but can be rerooted afterwards, at least that's what I was told.

Is there a way to unroot my phone without flashing stock roms via odin?
Id like to take my phone to service center i used triangle away to reset flash counter now only problem is to unroot my phone?
If you have SuperSU by Chainfire then simply click the app then settings. Scroll down to full unroot.
There are a number of root/unroot programs out there, that do not require you to reflash a firmware.
Here's one.

Or you could try mobile odin pro to flash an official firmware, from your phone.
Failing that Odin will be probably be your final option.

Is there any way to get a custom recovery installed on the LQ5 ICS 4.0.4 without flashing a custom kernel?
Related to that, all I'm looking for is a way to make a nandroid backup with restore option, so if there's a third-party way of doing it, I'd appreciate any suggestions.
I've always used CF-Root Kernels, but I just Mobile Odin flashed this ROM and I have stock recovery, so the backup/restore features are gone.
Just flash the latest CF-Root kernel via Odin in the PDA section and you will obtain your custom recovery. No other way for it.

From what I can see, that's LPK 5.5, right?
Can I flash it via Mobile Odin?

I'll be extra cautious, as what I'm seeing here is it might have the emmc brick bug in kernel.
So what ever you do do not wipe using stock recovery.
I'm using the save ROM and loving it. But will wait for any more news.
Though I have wiped multiple times using the dial code.
Yes I believe you just flash the latest CF-Root either via Mobile Odin or normal Odin. As atifsh said, don't wipe anything in the stock recovery as the MMC_CAP_ERASE seems to still be present and will eMMC brick your device, which is a real pain considering Samsung know about this. But it is still only a leaked ROM, so be very cautious.

Look at this:

If you flash other kernel and you don't re-flash then the original one some things like bluetooth will not work....
If you do my procedure you will have CMW, Root & the most important thing: THE ORIGINAL KERNEL!!! :cyclops::good:
PRESS TNX BUTTON IF I HELP YOU :good:
When I flashed the Stock_LQ5-CWM.zip above, I lost custom recovery and went back to stock recovery.
Chainfire has released CF-Root for LQ5, so problem solved.
Thanks for the input.
after receiving jellybean update.
today i saw that my phone has supersu and CWM apps but i don't have root.
how to get root back?
before i did it via cf-root
stock rom, stock kernel
I would just reflash cf root

I don't think that gives you recovery but you can flash that seperately anyway

i don't need recovery and all. i need to use tasker dpad, etc
As slaphead said, flash cf-root or auto root depending on if you need CWM. With mobile Odin pro btw you would keep root every time when you flash a new rom.

Can i flash stock recovery with mobile odin
you can't flash a stock recovery. it comes with a stock rom, and mobile Odin is made exactly for flashing stock roms

So i can go to stock rom with mobile odin?
And bydeway i already flashed stock recovery with mobile odin and in works...
I was pretty sure there isn't a stock recovery separately from the rom.
of course you can flash a rom with mobile Odin, that's what it's for

You where wrong about the stock recovery flash it is possible...
But can i flash stock samsung rom with mobile odin and will it then make everything stock(recovery)(rom)and modified status too...
you are asking the same question for the third time, read my replies.
you will need to use Triangle Away, unroot, then factory reset for everything to be stock

heres my suggestion
once you already went back to stock rom, then your traiangle away but still want your phone rooted. what you can do is to search here in XDA the CFAutoroot for our S3 and your system status still be NORMAL. works for me
I used cf auto root and have always had stock rom. I still have modified status.

Thank. I have stock rom and recovery so now if I unroot with super su run factory reset im good to go?
I dont have to yet. I just want to make sure I know what to do if the time comes.

Just to let you guys know. Curiosity got the better of me. I flashed a stock rom followed by a factory reset and I'm now out of the box stock.
Thanks everyone. I think im getting the hang of this. :beer:

Anyone have tried?
I'm currently on 4.1.2 Rooted ChainFire
I just wonder if it is possible to flash the 4.2.2 stock ROM from sammobile with CWM?
Which means
i can keep the root while updated to 4.2.2
Because AFAIK, flash via ODIN will remove the root itself.
any respondse will be appreciated
Thanks in advance
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
all the ROMs on sammobile are Odin-flashable.
It doesn't matter what you flash it with - if the ROM is not rooted, then you'll lose root.
Get a pre-rooted 4.2.2 from the dev section

The only way to do is with odin for mobile

No you can't

You have two options, flash with PC Odin, then root with CF Auto root, and flash CWM via rom manager.
Or you can flash with mobile Odin, don't flash recovery.img and check the everroot option this will keep root and custom recovery.
