Can anyone give me the stock recovery for N900 4.4.2 please? My phone is rooted but used fake system stauts in wanam xpose. I can download OTA upgrade but failed to install the update. So i guess it must be bcoz of CWM. Thank you so much in advance.

I have the same problem before. And I have flash the stock firmware via Odin. No data will be lost.
If you are going to flash the stock recovery, you'd better flash the stock firmware
You can also download the stock firmware and extract the stock recovery yourself.
Install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Firmware Browser' to find and download the stock firmware for your device.

Oh.really. I didnt realize it at all. Current firmware is the one that I downloaded and flashed it from odin. Can u guide me how to extract and flash it bcoz I am afraid I will have bootloop or brick.?
Yes I know your application and this is a must have for SAMSUNG.? I wait for you before i proceed anything.
The firmware file is a TAR archive and you can extract it with WinRAR.
You will get recovery.img file and it can be flash via Odin.
But it's easier if you flash full stock firmware. No data will be lost.

Do i need to repack recovery.img into tar.md5? I can add recovery.img into zip archive and then rename into tar.md5? is it a right method? I have modified something in system folder which i have to flash through CWM. So after i flash stock firmware, im not going to lose my data but my modification will be lost.
I hope u understand my problem.

I want to back to stock recovery for my i9505 (I9505XXUBMG5 ) Malaysia (XME). MY question is where can I download only a single file to flash back to the stock recovery because I don't want to download the whole big rom file, currently I using stock (rooted) with custom CWM recovery. Is all the stock recovery from different country same? Is there any site where I can only download my (XME I9505XXUBMG5 ) stock recovery?
Please advice.
Thanks.

This is the XME MG5 stock recovery, I've transferred the Hotfile link to a premium download link so it will download quicker, flash via Odin 3.04 as PDA
Thanks a lot :good: I still got lots to learn from here
Just flash the file given to earlier.. My recovery is still the custom CWM. Not change back to stock recovery.
Please help and advice.
Thanks.

How did you flash the Recovery?
I load the tar file I downloaded into odin at PDA then click start, after finish.. factory reset. I think I know what happen, the kernel downloaded got no recovery.img inside it. I guess I need that file to relace my CWM recovery.
I want to install my stock recovery to be able to download OTA updates using my stock themed firmware but I can't figure out how to install the recovery.img that i got from my official firmware. I already tried to flash it using odin & through twrp recovery but the file is not supported. Can anybody convert my recovery.img into a flashable file?

Hi,
Look HERE
Flashing the stock firmware for your phone will also flash stock recovery and stock kernel.

I am currently using stock firmware and stock kernel but my recovery is twrp. I want to restore my stock recovery without affecting my root and modified system files.

You will need to find a stock recovery only image that can be installed by ODIN.

I was able to extract my stock recovery.img from my stock firmware but it is formatted as Disc Image File. I am wondering if its possible to convert it to other format so that i can flash it via odin or recovery.

You can`t flash the extracted stock recovery with Odin but you can with Mobile Odin Pro from your phone. It also flashes .img files. Did it myself on the I9505.

I tried to flash recovery.img that i extracted from my stock firmware via mobile odin pro but got some problems. After boot logo, it goes back to the setup wizard like when you open your phone for the first time. I can't also proceed with the wizard since i'm getting an error like secsettings stopped responded.
I installed a kernel but there's a wifi bug and i don't know how to fix it. I made a backup before, but when i restore it, it doesn't go BACK!
i have i337M (4.4.2)
Someone please help me ..
I haven't personally tried this on the s4 but it should work. Grab the 4.4.2 factory tar file, rename it without the.md5, and extract it. Inside you should find a boot.img. Put that on your device and flash it with flashify from the play store.

Thanks! I will try it when I finish downloading the File from SamMobile.
Just to Clarify:
I need to remove the .md5 from the name? So just .tar? and then extract and put the boot.img on my sd and install flashify and flash from there? And my kernel will be back to stock?
If I wanted to unroot, would i just flash the .tar file through Odin? That would remove TWRP, root and custom kernel, am i correct?
Thanks.

You made it easy to answer your questions. It's yes to all of them

Help! I am still on stock kitkat and I have reactivation lock (yep I know thats the problem) on. Then I decided to install a custom recovery (twrp) via flashify and then I booted into recovery, now it says "custom binary blocked by reactivation lock" and "secure fail: recovery". If I try to reboot my phone it keeps booting into recovery mode.
My question is do I have to install the firmware all again or can I also install only the stock recovery with odin and make the phone work all again? If it is the second one... Can someone PLEASE upload a file of the kitkat recovery? Thx in regards!
dude install stock kitkat firmware for ur device and extract recovery.img inside the tar file then convert recovery.img to tar hope u understood

Thank you for your answer
However I did it another way lol, just flashed the whole rom all again with odin and it works flawlessly. There's no need to wipe anything.

1. you should be able to extract it by 7-zip or Winrar app from tar.md5 rom package
2. When you have recovery.img extracted boot into TWRP, go to "Install" > navigate to the folder with the file > select "Images ..." > select the file > select "Recovery" > and finally swipe to flash.
