Okay so yesterday I got stuck in a bootloop updating a 4.3 ROM and had to Odin back to stock and root and install recovery all over. I'm just curious before after I rooted the first time I had the unlock icon on boot now it says Samsung galaxy s4 on boot. Root is working fine along with recovery now but that's different. Is this okay? I used the no wipe tar file factory image if that makes a difference. Thanks
Maybe because your still stock rooted and have not flashed a custom rom yet...

Oh know I flashed a ROM as soon as I rooted and installed recovery.

1. Does all stock roms have the same recovery?
2. If so how can I pull a stock recovery and push it over a stock Rom with cwm...
(replace cwm with stock recovery) in order to be able to get otas

In the tar you download from sammobile.com, there is a file called recovery.img. This is the recovery. Just be sure to download the rom suitable for your device. Then you have 2 options:
Put the img in a .tar and flash with odin
OR
Download this file www.mediafire.com/?w45j8i0fcj0wck0, which originates from this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089&highlight=lorddeff07.
Replace the img with your own and flash with cwm.
I have used it to flash pershoot's recovery to my 7500 and it worked. I don't know whether it will work for stock, or wifi only version, but I see no reason why it shouldn't.
Please report back as to what you tried and if it worked.

Why don't you just wait a day or so for one of our awesome devs to post a rooted OTA after it drops, and then you can just flash it.
But I think the answer to your question is "PDA"...

I feel you m8... But you know as soon as Sammy drops the ICS update the great devs on XDA will pop open the OTA, root it, tweaked it and debloat it. And that will be done most likely in a few hours of the update. And remember if you do the OTA, you most likely will lose root until the devs setup some new root files.
Just saying...

Yeah I know can always flash back via odin an old hc rom re- root re- cwm /wipe factory reset and flash cm9 xD
Just Wish pershoot had a kernel control app to get proper and full control of the tab as I have it in my gnex with cm9 and frankos kernel app

I was flashing lite'ning rom. Did everything just as the post did but my phone is stucked at the samsung screen.
It is important to let you know that I used this rom before, then correclty flashed cm9, then RGUI V10. Then I decided to flash lite'ning again but went unsuccesful.
Can anyone help?
My phone is able to go in download mode. It is the international version of the SIII in Mexico
Thanks!

Try wiping /system before flashing the rom again. If it doesn't work. Then get yourself an Odin compatible stock ROM to flash... if you can get in to download mode then you will be fine. But try the first step and see how it goes.

My phone is stuck on the samsung screen. Flashed odin. Can't even get into recovery mode. It does nothing.
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.

If you're still on HC, its best to upgrade to stock ics first.

That's correct. Stock ICS will give you the correct Bootloader required for the custom ROM you wish to to flash.

Hi
Before, rename your post name. Not correct, use "[PHONE MODEL][PROBLEM TYPE (here Custom ROM)] Freeze on boot.img flashing".
Thanks.

CWM needs ROOT, so flash SuperUser/SuperSU.
Flash CWM
Install the ROM as the OP says

No need to root to either flash CWM or a Custom rom..
just flash CWM via recovery mode and then flash a custom rom via CWM...
thank you,
