Well I was going to install twrp on my s4 but had a few concerns. 1. Can I uninstall it? 2. If so where is the stock recovery for Verizon s4. Thanks

Is there a way to 're install the stock recovery?

Yep, should be able to push the stock recovery image via adb or terminal emulator as described in this thread:
Edit: Just realized you're not on a VZW GS3 but there are probably similar instructions for yours.

CF-Autoroot again.
Odin TWRP
Wipe
Flash freeza's Deodexed Stock ROM
Flash MI5 Firmware
Wipe
Flash JellyBomb
... this is what I would do.

I heard twrp was not always safe to use is this true

Safer than CWM at the moment.
Don't restore backups yet. If you dont know what you are doing follow instructions.
You can easily brick your phone while in recovery. Be aware of that. Be careful.

Yes the rooting is the same and the link developweb gave you is the easiest instructions and it is how I rooted my I717r. However....
If after installing Recovery (cwm or twrp) and you reboot into recovery to install superuser you find out you still have stock recovery installed then you need to do an extra step. Depending on how your phone was updated there may be a script installed that restores the stock recovery. So after you install custom recovery remove your battery while it is rebooting. This will prevent the script from reinstalling stock recovery. Then boot into recovery yourself to install superuser.
Info about rooting the Canadian version is here:

I rooted my I717r with ICS installed. I installed ICS using odin and the script was not on my phone. I believe if your phone was updated via OTA then it got the script. I have no idea if this script is carried over into jellybean or not.
Thanks a lot everyone

Did you read my post above??
I'm on mj7. I want the cm11 on my phone and was wondering if I could flash a cwm recovery over to my phone, then boot into it and flash cm11? Or do you need root to flash a custom recovery? Thank you for your help

I really wish you would search the forums for this frequently asked question. But at this time there is no custom recovery for your firmware. I would recommend buying an MDK firmware s4 off of Swappa. Other than that you're SOL.

Thank you. I took it for granted that there was a recovery for 4.3

I just flashed it this morning and did a restore. Was at stock and up to date before flashing. Using 2.7.0.0
I've been trying this method since TWRP went official on the S5 and it keeps telling me it's not supported. Same with GooManager and Flashify. I don't want to go the whole Odin route if these methods should work. I'm on Philz recovery but want to go to TWRP since I had that on my S3.

I installed the official version via Odin. 2 minutes and I was up and running. No problems.
