SCH-I545 stock recovery - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hi, I installed CWM using Rom Manager and I would like to go back to the stock recovery so I can install the latest OTA from Verizon. Does anyone have the stock recovery image for the SCH-I545?
I was sure a backup was created when installing CWM but I can't find it.
Thanks.

why in the world would you want to install the OTA??....

Maybe he doesn't like root.

The stock recovery file in the link above is a type .gz file. ODIN does not recognize it and windows does not know what to do with it. Can someone advise? Thanks

CWM recovery.zip

Hi
Does anyone have CWM "recovery.zip" for Gtab 10.1 GT P7500. I can only find md5 and .img files. I am refering the latest version 5.5.0.4.
Thank you
I asked around for this a few days ago and a guy posted a link for me...I can't find it now...darn it!
I read in another thread that you can use ROM Manager to flash your IMG though. If you still have that zipped up, park it on your SD card, open ROM Manager and go "install zip from SD Card". Select it and flash and I think you will be okay...I have never tried it that way though.
Can anyone else confirm this works? Or if you are brave give it a try and let us know!

This is the GT-P7500 CWM recovery 5.504 with Odin3.
View attachment Tab10.1Recovery.zip
There are some issue upgrade ICS 4.0.4 with rom manager.
like boot loop, screen rollong in CWM recovery mode. maybe not affect by Rom manager...
but most issue reply with rom manager installed.
For rolling screen there's a fix,flashing custom bootloader,but causes issues on official ICS at the moment...

Thank you for your files. Just to explain why I need it: since i am a linux user i try to flash my tab using linux. The following procedures did not want to work:
-Adb / Fastboot
-heimdall
-flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img.
The only method to flash the recovery for me is flashing it with the recovery as a .zip file and then rebooting the recovery. In this way I was able to install CM10 Jelly Bean on my tab.
Cheers.

Did you zip it up first? Don't extract it.
You can use Mobile ODIN to install the .md5 recovery if you're rooted
The pro version is on the Play Store or the lite version is free in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
I don't think that zipping the image solves the problem. As far as I know you have to zip it without compression. It would be helpful if there would be a how-to for Linux in this case.

[Q] Installing TWRP on Unrooted Note

How can I install TWRP on my unrooted Note? and Which is the easiest way to install it?
Searching through the forums I haven't found any specific instructions but if I've read correctly it seems that through ODIN is the easiest way.
Where can I get the latest ODIN for the Note i717?
Could someone be so kind to provide some instructions and links?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
You don't need to be rooted to flash a rom or install a recovery. Root is for access to the system files of the rom after it boots and loads.

How can I install a recovery without having to root my phone first? What's the procedure
All the instructions I've found require the Note to rooted first.
Rom already on sdcard.
Recovery tar in Odin.
Flash recovery with Odin
Boot into new recovery and flash rom.
Rom will be rooted once booted.
Bingo, the EASIEST way th go from bones stock to custom rom.

thanks for this , man..my wife's Note was never rooted, and she wants it done, so I will try this way..
sounds waaaaay too easy though!
I didn't mention that that this method will trip the flash counter
As I don't give one care about what my flash counter says unless I get a hardware defect within my year of ownership I didn't mention that before.
There are ways to reset it so don't even worry about until the day comes where you need to.
And just where do we find the TWRP. tar...... That we flash with Odin.....
All I see is how to Install TWRP using
GOO MANAGER..... And that requires root..
Which the OP doesn't want to do....
Thanks...

flash the CWM tar first, and after you go through all the other steps, and are rooted, download and install TWRP..
Like the above poster said, but skip the root step. So CWR using Odin and occasionally, then TWRP by using CWR, done.
Ok..... So we need the CWR.tar, for Odin...
Any links please?
Then.... We need the TWRP file to put on our SD...
Any link to the TWRP too please?
Thanks for all your help...
In keeping the OP's note un-rooted...
See the super everything thread. The tar file is there. The TWRP zip is in the original development thread.
Hey guys. Thanks for the responses.
I see that some of you are recommending to odin CWR and then use CWR to flash TWRP.
On the TWRP page there is this link to the following page http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/sgh-i717/ which has the different TWRP files and there is a TWRP .tar file. File name: openrecovery-twrp-2.3.2.3-quincyatt.img.tar
Can I just odin the above file instead of odin CWR first?
Where can I find the latest ODIN? I've looked for downloads but haven't found it. A link would be much appreciated.
Once again, thanks.

coul;dnt he just Odin the TWRP .tar alone??
And skip the Odin CWR all together??

Yup
As long as its a .tar and contains a recovery.img whichever you choose is just that, your choice.

Stock Deodexed Tmobile G900T Lollipop 5.0 anyone?

I looked around for one but was unable to find one. Maybe Twi5sted's stock has the original kernel but encryption fails when I attempt it.
Any suggestions?
Yep, muinz_ri created a Stock De-Odexed ROM. I was successfully able to install Xposed by flashing everything through FlashFire and still have Knox 0x0.

how to make stock recovery flashable?
I do have another question regarding this rom - would you happen to know how I may be able to make the embedded recovery image flashable? TWRP doesn't seem to be working at the moment with regard to decrypting and formatting /data but the stock recovery does. It can come in handy if there is a way to do it via mobile odin possibly or via some other program.

Right now I have stock recovery as I recently reflashed the Rom. At some point however I plan to go back to TWRP.
If I run into encryption problems and need to do a reset, I would like to see if I can flash TWRP using TWRP app while booted in safe mode (if I am able to get that far).
What do you think?

Here, download this, extract the zip, put the recovery.img in the extracted folder, highlight meta-inf system and recovery.img and zip all three and flash it. Only use this zip for stock or custom recoveries

Hey thanks! So I did as you said and flashed the stock recovery from the deodexed rom and it's still TWRP. Strange isn't it? It would make sense if the deodexed ROM came with TWRP but when I initially flashed it I can confirm it was stock android.
I'm confused....

Oh wait, I did something very wrong... fixing now...
Yay it worked, thanks a lot
I guess I should keep the stock recovery installed with this thing encrypted because TWRP seems broken (at least version 2.8.7.0). I emailed the developer about it.
Now I'm wondering for added flexibility, how I may be able to flash the stock recovery from MobileOdin. That seems to take .md5 files and not zips. Is this feasible to do?

Well thanks! Maybe you can point me toward the Windows way as I would like to do the same for the stock kernel, xposed, and the tethering addon.
fishinpercolator so are you having trouble with TWRP? What I did in FlashFire was flash the pre-rooted de-odexed ROM (that I linked earlier) then booted that. It was de-odexed and worked fine but boot took about 15 minutes (as it is de-odexed).
In FlashFire you need to hit the + and press Flash ZIP or OTA.
Then I installed FlashFire again (it was erased because I flashed a new ROM) and downloaded the Samsung 5.0 Xposed ZIP and flashed that in FlashFire using Flash ZIP or OTA. Basically since I have Knox 0x0, I use FlashFire as my "recovery" and it might be easier for you than finding a working TWRP image (although I am sure ShinySide is more than eager to help you). Then I installed the Xposed APK and had to reboot before it recognized the Xposed ZIP was installed.
After that, most Xposed modules started working for me.

I haven't used flashfire but will look into it. I've already tripped knox a while ago so that's not my prime concern. I want this phone to be encrypted and would like to learn a way to fix on the fly while on vacation (and without a laptop) in the event a catastrophe happens. It seems TWRP may not be removing the crypto footer when I format data as I still get the encryption password prompt.
Seems like flashfire allows you to flash roms from USB? I will need instructions for that.... <pokes around>
::update::
For some reason I thought flashfire was command line driven... I have Mobile Odin and I read that it contains flashfire, something worth looking into.
Is there a way to flash roms using ADB from a usb stick?
(NOTE- I should clarify, is there a way to flash from a command prompt assuming custom recovery is not installed and the phone is soft-bricked).

ROM for Odin of PH1 update

This is the Odin flashables for the PH1 update retrieved from Kies3. I find it different that the ROM is in four files, and I don't know how to combine them. You will actually need to select all four check boxes in Odin 3.11 or newer, and select the correct files based on their prefixes. Just a reminder: remember to backup everything so you don't lose anything!

Thank you for this, if I'm wanting to keep my custom recovery and be rooted would I just select the BL, CP, and CSC then flash the stock rooted in TWRP? And can I load all 3 in Odin at once or is there an order I should flash in? I remember when I flashed to OK2 I had to do a specific order and pull the battery in between, wasn't sure if that's still the case. Thanks in advance.
I honestly don't know about the custom recovery using the Odin flash. You could try it, but you'd have to reinstall your SU binaries. These files will not work in TWRP. As for loading the files in Odin, yes, you load all of them at the same time. I would recommend trying the prerooted ROM I posted first.

Thank you, the pre-rooted ROM is in 7zip, doesn't it have to be zipped? Should I just extract and zip?
**edit** Nevermind, I bit the bullet and flashed the Odin file then my custom recovery afterwards. All is working, thank you for the guide and files.
Problem extracting files from the PHI zip
I'm trying to extract the files to a folder, but getting "unknown compression method" error so files won't extract. Is this common? Anyone seen this before? Is there another way to extract the files so I can load them individually into Odin?
Thanks

there's no flashing option on stock recovery.
Only at TWRP (or other custom recovery) Flash directly from there.
Rooting has nothin to do with it.

Oh, that error means the ROM might be faulty or you're flashing the wrong one.
Be ensure of the ROM first.
Redownload and check.
