Hi,
I need to send my phone (Galaxy sII) for warranty and I need to install the factory rom. I'll do that, but i've heard that I also have to install original recovery mode (now i'm running clockworkmod).
Does restoring original rom with odin also restores the original recovery mode or do I have to do it anyway? If so - how?
Original rom will restore the stock recovery
But u should first ..triangle away to reset the binary counter..
Then flash stock rom
Yeah I did that. It shows 0 now. Thanks.

I want to grab some software off a stock galaxy ace from the same provider as mine. However, before I root it and install CWM, I want a way to revert it to Android system recovery <3e>. Obviously, I cannot back up the stock phone, it's unrooted and has no CWM recovery backup yet, and once I install CWM, it won't have the stock recovery anymore. Any way to get the stock system recovery?

There's no flashable zip or whatever .
All you need to do is to flash any firmware via ODIN

If u flash any stock rom ,u will get your stock recovery back =D
Where can I get a stock rom for the device, though? I can't take a backup to make my own without CWM...I assume I could learn to use Odin with a tutorial somewhere, but Odin can't take a backup, can it?
sammobile.com
Nice site. I don't suppose the Europe or Asia firmwares will work in North America, though? (Canada).
hi, i've rooted my phone before 2 months. it was fine but suddenly it get hanged in boot screen itself. what i have to do. it will not go to recovery mode but only to download mode. so no data wipe i've its backups in pc whether i'll be able to flash it with odin
If you are getting Download mode and nothing else..better you flash your current ROM version again from from ODIN, then Root again, and put your backup on SD card (if those are backed up at the time of good condition of your phone) and restore.....
I dont have recovery package i think filehosting is blocked
Flash any stock rom and CWM and root kernel to match your old version as said .
jje
u can flash litening rom through odin.
I wanted to flash the Siyah kernel, but failed. Now the phone is always stuck at the Samsung logo, and I can't even enter Recovery mode, only Download mode which implies I must use Odin.
Any advice?
Flash a stock rom in Odin, factory reset. Clean slate. Then try flashing whatever rom/kernel you want again if you're still keen.
Edit - Or...Flash stock rom, root phone, restore Nandroid backup (assuming you have one).
Any guide for using Odin to do just this?
Here. But don't let me stop you searching for it :-|
After resetting the flash counter via TriangleAway, If I go into CWM Recovery Mode and than return to Download Mode, counter says 1 and system binary is "Custom".
But for example this guy does the same steps as i did, but in minute 3.47 he sees 0 and official in his device but i see 1 and custom in mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=raY_bwsHZSs
Please inform me why is it and how can i fix this?
Nope it never has so something wrong on your phone or running TA .
and yes i have just tested ..
TA sets 1 to 0 boot recovery boot download mode and still 0
Status will of course say modified until you follow the instructions and flash stock firmware and factory reset .
jje
To be honest, there isn't any other instruction left that I didn't try. Applying every step one by one.. "Reset counter on boot" option in TA is also active. But after booting in CWM Recovery, it add 1 (i'm using stock rom and flashed siyah kernel for TA).
Which instruction are you trying? I'll be glad if you can copy&paste to here. I don't think so but maybe there are something different by any chance..
BTW Here what I did last time:
1) Flashed a 4.0.4 stock rom.
2) Rooted with CWM Recovery included one.
3) In CWM Recovery Menu, wiped factory&cache&dalvik
4) Rooted with Stock Recovery included one.
5) Used TriangleAway and removed the battery when it's done (before booting the device)
6) Booted in 'stock' Recovery Mode wiped factory&cache.
7) Immediately booted into Download Mode (counter was 0, both status were official)
8) Flashed the same 4.0.4 stock rom and downloaded automaticly 4.1.1 JB.
Now I'm using it like an ordinary users, I hope it doesn't change binary/system status & counter in time...
Hi. I own a Karbonn Titanium S5 Plus/+.
I was looking to install a stock 4.4 ROM. So I rooted my phone with rootmaster (I do not own a PC).
I download some unofficial CWM for my phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634569.
when Backing up from custom recovery it says Can't Mount/system.
my biggest mistake is that I did not Backup original recovery.
I even went to cyber cafe and tried this method of flashing stock rom of my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2718505 But it didnt work at all.
So my problems are :
1.I cannot Factory reset my phone.when i select factory reset from settings, it boots up in recovery.when i select factory reset from recovery it doesnt change a thing.
2.My phone has a update . when i try to update,it again boots up in recovery.I tried updating from update.zip but it gives STATUS 7 Error.
3.Again due my stupid mistake of not backing up while changing the boot animation I am stuck with a custom boot animation. Is there a way I can revert it back to original.?
The company's website does not provide stock rom its devices.
Is there any way that I can bring my phone back to full Factory State (Without PC)?
