Yeah as long as its a zip file. Tar will be flashed through Odin. Img through adb. Backups don't translate well between some recoveries though, just a heads up.

So, I am like many of the other noobs in here who tried to install TWRP through goomanager. I realize that this is not possible, and am paying for my actions. I have read on many threads like this one that by flashing the stock ME7 recovery onto the phone through odin I can get my phone up and running again. Only issue is that I cannot manage to find the stock recovery for ME7 to save my own life (or the life of my phone coincidentally). Could anyone help me by posting a link to the download? I certainly don't mind being marked an idiot if it helps me out or other people who do the same exact thing.
Thanks in advance guys.
Wait, are you on mdk or me7?

I am on ME7
Edit: I have looked up and down XDA for an ME7 stock recovery but I still can't find it. I have found multiple threads alluding to such a thing on the dev forum, however I still can't find it
This thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301259
There is a download link.
Flash using Odin.

Thank you very much. Once again, to flash it, just open odin, click PDA (after connecting the device), select the downloaded file, then click start?

I was given an S4 so I rooted and safestraped it. But does that mean I can flash any Rom I want with safestrap. Please help never used safestrap before

No, only touchwiz roms. There's a thread about roms that work with safestrap. Hyperdrive and Eclipse are popular roms.

Yah, you can't flash all rom with safestrap. Just some roms can work with it. I'm looking for threads talk about this issue.

in DEV thread much discussions concerning the use of safestrap.
Is my bootloader locked? I tried installing ClockWork and TWRP Through Rom Manger and GooManager, both say they are successful but when I restart into recovery via an app or manually it goes into ODIN Mode or Stock Recovery? What am I missing here? Any help gratefully appreciated !
Only mdk can install a custom recovery. Not to be rude, but a lil reading would of went a long way. All you can do is root and k stall safestrap

No, you can't install a custom recovery. The bootloader is locked.
I suggest you read the following

Yes, and it wasn't really make clear what works with MK2, but now after reading more I see I need SS. I Have 3.70 Installed. Now I am having trouble finding any KitKat Roms that work with SafeStrap and MK2? Is there a list somewhere?

Thx, I actually found that not long after my post. Now it seems there are no 4.4 roms compatible with ss 3.70 and mk2? Hyperdrive seems nice but it's Jellybean.

so I looked at your link and seems like some people are struggling so I haven't tried it yet. Are we any closer to a simple root. I don't necessarily need to install a recovery just want root. And by the way thanks for posting the link.

You may be out of luck.
The method is easy but it will wipe your phone.
There is a chance yo could be waiting for a looong time.
So if I'm OK with wiping it works. Everything will work?

Try towel root, it worked on my nc5, only problem is that the bootloader is locked so I cannot flash roms
Simply search "towelroot apk" and you should find a link to xda or to towelroot.com
