think about adding in a stock recovery/kernel? since people will need a recovery to flash this and a kernel to have root

This one is just if they want to unroot for some reason. I will be putting out complete stock options soon also.

So I install stock rom and run this reboot from recovery and I'm back to unrooted stock?

I am waiting for a similar answer, will the rom undo what the rooting has done.

It will completely unroot you.

No but I could be wrong but I really doubt it

This won't work in stock recovery. It will uproot your system but not replace your kernel or recovery. You can run this and the complete stock firmware zips in my Rom threads to return to a unrooted system with stock firmware.

[ODIN][N8013]Stock Kernel and Recovery Images

This post will contain N8013 stock kernel and recovery images. For UEALGB these were dumped from a device that was rooted using the "root injection of /system" approach. For UEALH2, they are simply extracted from the Kies dump at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1847706 so that you can get a stock kernel or recovery without downloading 1GB of files.
If you flash any of these using Odin, they should not trigger your flash counter. Note that for some reason, flashing these in Heimdall will trigger the counter (unlike Heimdall on most other devices).
Pardon for some ignorance. What should be the steps to follow in order to root from an updated to latest OTA update stock Rom on a 32gb USA version? Do I need to flash the kernel, or just recovery should be ok?

Why don't u ask this in the root thread?
Here is what you should do:
Root Via CWM (method 2 in the root thread)
1. Download and put the superuserzip on your internal memory on your device
2. In odin uncheck auto reboot and load the cwmrecovery tar in the pda slot
3. Start odin
4. Once finished boot directly into clockwork (volume up and power til the samsung screen then let go of power while holding volume up)
5. Use the volume rockers to scroll in clockwork cause its finicky and flash the superuser zip you put on your device.
6. reboot
7. Make sure you have root and touch screen and pen works
8. Download goo manager
9. In goo manager hit menu and hit the install recovery script
10. DONE
Have any problems odin back to a stock image and if things go bad flash entropys triangle away kernel and clear your binary count
Any chance you could update the thread to account for the updated kernel for the N8013, that adds support for exFAT?

For OTAs - no, these will probably not work.
Ok I downloaded the UEALGB stock recovery tar again and it contains only boot.img. Is the link bad or am I just screwy?

Thanks Entropy, as much as I want to root now I am going to wait for either a stock LG4 recovery or a root injected LG4.

I have the Canadian 8010 model, and installed the prerooted firmware that was provided. It didnt flash right the first time but the second time it did. Everything works great and Im rooted with CWM. The only thing I noticed is that it says I have the 8013 model now which is probably because of the firmware but its not a big deal.

Does anyone have a working UEALGB stock recovery?
Please, update the LGB recovery. I think that's the kernel.
Can I flash the H2 recovery in a LGB rom??
Cheers!

You can't, but you can flash the entire H2 ODIN image from here (about 1GB):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1847706
and not lose your data. You lose root though (which you can get again through the alternate recovery method)
Can we get a kernel and recovery from UEALI3 please.
Can someone dump latest firmware please and pm me.

Sorry no idea about that, I have never used TWRP in my whole life, been using CWM since the beginning of times.
Well you can try it using TWRP, backup first and then try, might work.

[Q] How to install new recovery?

Well i currently have CWM, and want to install philz touch, do i need to go back to stock rom, and root and unlock bootloader again, i don't want to loose all my data
You could use a tool to do it or flash it if it's flashable. There is no need to to anything else but what I mentioned before. At least, that's what I've done in past experience

+1. Just download the flashble zip, copy it to sd card, flash it from your existing custom recovery.

Backup recovery without root

Hi,
I just installed the OTA, so I'm currently running the stock recovery and I didn't gained root.
How can I make a backup of the current recovery prior to installing a custom recovery (like TWRP) in order to get root? I would like to have a copy of my stock recovery so that I could restore that in order to install future OTA updates.
Is there any way to create such a backup? Maybe using fastboot?

You don't need a backup of the Stock recovery. There is a thread which has the entire collection of Stock recoveries, which you can flash if necessary.

Can I install Xposed using Odin?

Hai! I'm new here so if this isn't the place to put it so sorry!
Anyways so I've always wanted to install Xposed, but there are always things getting in my way, until I saw a Xposed file that would work for me perfectly! But I don't have an recovery, the tutorial I took just made me use Odin, but I am rooted with busybox. (if that's important.) Anyways so I saw how to install an custom recovery, then I saw you had to unlock your bootloader, I had to google how to check if it was unlocked and it wasn't, so I then googled how to unlock bootloader and saw you had to delete your files. Now even if I get to backup and restore, I don't like factory resetting things. Until I remembered Odin, I googled it and saw it could flash. So i'm wondering...
Can I installed Xposed using Odin? Or atleast flash an custom recovery to it using Odin without unlocking my bootloader?
Here is my tablet's stats.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A Lollipop 5.0.2 Rooted (Busybox Installed.) Stock Rom Touchwiz SM-T350
No, you can't flash with Odin. Only cwm or twrp

You should install the framework zip via custom recovery only.
1) Flash TWRP (or CWM or Philz or whatever is available for your device) in Odin
2) Reboot into recovery mode and you will be in this new custom recovery you just put on
3) Flash the xposed framework
4) ?????????
5) Profit!
