Okay so i rooted my Samsung Galaxy express to jelly bean 4.2.2 using the method below.
but i cant access Samsung kies because it doesn't recognize rooted phones. So i was wondering if there was any way to keep the rooted features but go back to the stock rom? And if there is how do i do it and where do i get the file from?
Flash Clockwork Recovery
1. Download Express OUDHS CWM.exe.
2. Turn off the phone
3. Press and hold volume down and power to enter download mode (if this doesn’t work, press and hold volume down, power and home key)
4. Connect your phone to your computer via USB
5. Window ID: COM should be highlighted in yellow, this means your phone was properly detected
6. Press start and wait for installation
7. Disconnect your phone, recovery is now installed
Install SuperSU
1. Download SuperSU v1.25
2. Connect your phone to your computer via USB
3. Copy the SuperSU v1.25 file to the root of your SD card (make sure you have an SD card in your phone)
4. Turn off your phone
5. Hold volume up, power and home key to enter recovery (as soon as you see blue text on the top of the screen that read entering or booting recovery, immediately release all the buttons)
6. Click on install zip from SD card and locate SuperSU file
7. Select the SuperSU file and install
8. After installation is complete, reboot your phone
You will now have both custom recovery and SuperSU installed on your phone, which allows you to install custom ROM’s, which is the next step. (Make sure USB debugging is still enabled). Please note that these versions of CM10.1 and CM10.2 are unofficial builds, however are stable enough as daily drivers.
1. Download CM10.1(Android 4.2.2) or CM10.2(Android 4.3)
2. Download Gapps (Google Apps) for CM10.1 or Gapps for CM10.2
3. Connect your phone to your computer via USB and place ROM and Gapps files in root of SD card (make sure they are on SD card)
4. Download ROM Manager and reboot into recovery. You can also manually reboot into recovery by powering off your phone, pressing and holding volume up, power and home key.
5. Create a backup.
6. Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition and dalvik cache (found in advanced)
7. Install the ROM from the SDCard
8. Install Gapps from the SDCard
9. Reboot phone and let it sit for a few minutes while it boots for the first time. It may take a few minutes, and this is only evident upon initial boot.
You will likely run into issues with non functional WiFi. To resolve this, after flashing the ROM, follow these simple steps:
1. Download this file.
2. Power off the phone.
3. Hold volume down, power and home button to enter download mode.
4. Press volume up to enter download mode.
5. Connect phone to your computer
6. Open Odin and flash the downloaded file as Bootloader (You should see a green box that indicates that the method passed and worked)
7. Reboot the phone and test WiFI
Why do you actually need Kies for?

This is what I have done to get the newer version of CWM like it says
Download the newest CWM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1533697
Download fastboot http://androidroot.mobi/2012/02/22/i...sformer-prime/ and stick the new cwm in that folder and rename the file form the first download tfp_CWM5_androidroot.blob (INCLUDING THE .IMG)
Next open CMD and cd into the directory with both the .blob and fastboot inside
Reboot prime holding power and vol down till white writing comes up then press nothing untill it has three icons on the screen now press vol down (NOT UP) once to be on the middle icon then vol up to select it (I had to pull the usb out and back in)
Once the bar has finished you can reboot now go into CWM and make sure the version is CWM v5.8.2.0+ now:
wipe data/factory reset in recovery
flash ROM
flash Gapps
reboot
It will boot
please help i have motorola atrix 4g at&t and please the link of neutrino or codename rom :c
if you are in CM9 that means, you have a rooted and bootloader unlocked atrix with CWM recovery. I will help you buddy...
PREPARE YOUR PHONE FOR FLASH THE ROM;
-make sure you have installed the drivers of motorola. It is recommended for your pc to recognise your phone when you connect it.
-(I recommend GT version, it is FAST and battery life is great! Better than EE.) Download the rom and the addons on the link>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26657806&postcount=7819
-put the files in your SD CARD.( put the .zip files to your SD CARD, do not extract!)
-PREPARE yourself for the flashing
1) FULL WIPE
- https://www.dropbox.com/s/1tgt2yax88rp2mi/Moto-Fastboot FULL WIPE.rar <<< DOWNLOAD THIS.
-Power off your phone.
-open your phone in FASTBOOT mode. (press power button and volume down at the same time until you see 'Fastboot' on the screen, then press Volume up to activate it. Connect your phone to your PC.
-RUN the "Moto-FB Full Wipe.bat" and follow the instructions. (I remember that you should only press ENTER )
2)FLASHING ROM
-Power off your phone and POWER ON with POWER ON+VOLUME DOWN again.
-When you see Fastboot, Navigate with the power down button until you see ANDROID RECOVERY. (I think you should press 7 times to power down to see, if you pass it do not press up to go back just keep pressing vol down to see it again.) When you see Android Recovery Press VOL UP to enter the recovery.
-navigate to 'install .zip from sd card' with using vol up or down then press POWER ON button to enter.
-'choose .zip file from sd card' and power on button to enter again.
-find your Neutrino2.8GT.zip file and press power on!
-It will install in 15-20 seconds.
-then install the ADDONS by following the same method. (install zip from sd>choose zip from sd>default camera apk(that was the one of the addons.)) You may install all of them or some of them, depends on you. But just install them all
-after you done, reboot your phone by selecting 'reboot the phone' in the CWM recovery menu.
-ENJOY YOUR AWESOME ROM.
PRESS THE "THANKS" IF I HELPED! :angel:
Hi So I am stuck in download mode when I tried to root my Fascinate with odin today it got a fail 1 success 0. I have tried holding down the power button for 10 seconds and a battery pull to no avail. Help would be greatly appreciated.
I would suggest that you get a .pit and re partition while you are going back to stock.

Thank you for responding but I have not rooted yet the problem occurred when I was trying to root.
are you following the [GUIDE] from droidstyle?? Section 6
Section 6: How to root stock froyo or gingerbread(This is not needed if your flashing a custom rom)
Downloads these files to PC,
Samsung drivers-
Odin (computer program)-
CWMALL 2.5 (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it)-
"su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file (place this file on the root of your sdcard...not within any folders)-
Modified stock Froyo kernel (place this file somewhere on your computer where you can easily locate it). This file is only necessary if you're rooting Froyo. It's not necessary for Gingerbread-
Instructions:
1. Install Samsung drivers on your computer.
2. Open Odin on your computer. (You may need to disable antivirus programs on your computer and/or phone for this to work properly.)
3. Power off your phone and remove the battery.
4. Plug the stock USB cord that came with your phone into a powered USB port on your computer (usually on the back of the computer).
5. Press and hold the "volume down" button on your phone, and continue to hold it while plugging the USB cord into your phone. This will put your phone into download mode. You'll see a large yellow triangle on the screen of your phone. (Let go of the volume button at this point.) You will also see one of the small boxes in Odin turn yellow, as well as "Added" appearing in the message box.
6. Click the PDA button in Odin (NOT the PHONE button) and navigate to the "CWM2.5_Voodoo.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier. This file does not include a voodoo kernel and will not perform the voodoo lagfix conversion. It's only named as such to note that it is compatible with voodoo kernels.(make sure auto reboot is unchecked, although it should be by default)
7. Click START. When this process has finished, you'll be notified in Odin (succeeded 1 / failed 0) and your phone's screen will go blank.
*** Step 8 is only for rooting Froyo. If you're rooting Gingerbread, skip Step 8 and proceed to Step 9. ***
8. Unplug your phone and click RESET in Odin. Repeat Step 5 to get the phone back into download mode and recognized by Odin. Using the PDA button, navigate to the "stock_kernel.tar.md5" file you downloaded earlier, select it, and press START. You'll again be notified in Odin once this process has completed (succeeded 1 / failed 0).
9. Unplug your phone and re-insert the battery.
10. Press and hold BOTH volume buttons. While holding them, press the power button. Hold all three simultaneously until you see "SAMSUNG" appear TWICE. This will boot your phone into CWM 2.5 red recovery. If your phone boots up normally here and not into recovery, just wait for it to boot up and then power it down and try again. It may take a couple tries for you to get it right.
11. Using the volume rocker, navigate down to "Install zip from sdcard." Highlight it and press the power button to select.
12. Navigate to "choose zip from sdcard" and select with the power button.
13. Navigate to the "su-2.3.6.1.x.zip" file that you downloaded earlier and select it. Scroll to "Yes," and use power button to select.
14. When you're advised of completion, press the MENU softkey to go back to the previous CWM Recovery screen, then highlight and select "reboot system now."

Hi guys,
I just used Download Mode + Odin to push T110.CWM.v6.0.4.8.tar.md5 to my T110 Tablet.
After that I could boot into CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.8 without issues.
Then I installed the zip file android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip
After that I rebooted. And since then I was not able to boot into Android or even Download Mode.
Only Recovery Mode works.
Then I tried to run adb devices from Windows and it reports my device ID number + recovery.
Now I was hoping somebody could help me with some adb commands to get this thing working again.
My initial goal was to root and upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2.
I would prefer using this lite rom T110UEUANE4.LiteV2.Rooted.Deodexed.June2014.zip instead of the official rom T110XXUANG2_T110OXAANG2_XEO.zip.
But at this point I would not care to much, I just hope it can be fixed again
Many thanks for your help!

Now i haven't tested beyond that but i found a youtube link for flashing stock rom via odin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ChtmNtpk3c
but this is in spanish so i translated in english here..
You must install Samsung KIES to ensure that your PC detects your phone.
After downloading install Odin
1 - Restart the phone in Download Mode ( Vol down , Home, Power Simultaneously ) .
press volume up to continue ( or vol down to leave but it can damage... )
2- Start Odin
3 - select files and press Start
Watch Out !!! Never unplug your phone before restarting
After 5-10 minutes your phone will reboot to your new ROM
stock rom download below:

Thank you very much! Although my SCH-i589 is currently hard brick, I think it will be very useful! -- Greetings from new members after 8 years
