Does mobile odin work for our phones yet? I wanted to install twrp but I'm still in my stock recovery.
Are there any alternatives for installing twrp from the phone?
Thanks

3.75 will run on our phone. Here's a lino to 3.72 as well https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358538127
As the title says, I just received my phone from swaapa. after my s4 mdk version broke. The phone is rooted and it's running 5.0.1 I'm not familiar with this version. So for safety measures can some one link the restore file you would use to restore it back to stock (the one used in odin).

There is no way to put the phone back to MDK. However, the info in this thread will give you some guidance on downgrading to KitKat and keeping root, among other things. 5.0.1 isn't bad. I'm running stang5litre's debloated 5.0.1. I bought my SGS4 from Swappa, as well. It was not MDK, either, so I'm limited to what ROM's I can run. Hope this helps.
Is it AOSP or touch wiz? If its aosp it's likely to have an mdk bootloader. Can you give us a screenshot of your "About Phone" in settings?

It's currently running a tw rom but I'm able to use twrp so I'm not sure cause other versions use that other recovery.

If he has a custom recovery he's not stuck on 5.0.1

So, my only guess is he has an MDK bootloader with the stock 5.0.1 TW installed.

Don't flash a stock ROM in Odin. If you do that you will loose the MDK bootloader forever. You're a lucky person, you can flash whatever you like right now, whether it is a TouchWiz or AOSP. If you loose the MDK bootloader you loose the ability to bootloader bypass exploit.

So I can go back to the mdk version through Odin and then reroot? I'm confused my old s4 was still on mdk and I was using cm.

Yes, or you could just update TWRP to the latest version and try a 5.1.1 CM based ROM. I recommend Exodus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3135866

Two things, Triscuit:
1) You posted a link to a WHOLE ROM and not an OTA;
2) The ROM you linked to is for the MDK bootloader which most of don't have.
Please be careful, guys!

You can download it from Sammobile. I just downloaded it a couple of days ago. It was a very slow download though. They want you to pay for faster downloads. See link. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SCH-I545/

I used Odin. I'm not aware of any other way except maybe a custom recovery.
