How to uninstall CWM Recovery

Hi,
I installed CWM recovery 5.0.2.6. after installing it i found out that installing a custom rom will void my warranty. I couldn't find the stock rom i had in my Galaxy Mini on Web. It is S5570XWKQ5.
Is there a way to uninstall CWM recovery without flashing another rom ? Can you please help me in detail because i am quite a noob in these matters.
Regards,

Please help

If it is not possible to uninstalll, can you please tell me how if it is possible to downgrade to Clockwork Mod Recovery v4.0.0.5. And how can i do that ? I am sorry about being urgent about this but i am really stucked.

To remove CWM you can delete /system/bin/hijack and /system/bin/logwrapper
Then rename /system/bin/logwrapper.bin to /system/bin/logwrapper.
At least this is how it was on froyo. will probably hold true for GB.

I guess had to say this, i haven't flashed or rooted my phone with a custom rom. My version is 2.3.4 and i couldn't find any hijack on /system/bin
I used ES Explorer to delete logwrapper.bin but couldn't manage to do it. I guess that is because it is not rooted so ES Explorer can't work as Root Explorer.

Just. flash your rom with original GB firmware using ODIN and then you will get stock recovery. If you know your rom details download one from sammobile.com and then falsh it using ODin.

I know that it is possible to get back the stock recovery by flashing it with my current rom.
But problem the problem is this my current rom does not exist online. It is the turkish rom and you can only find it by going to the technical service and paying a certain amount.
So i have to do this w/o getting installed a stock rom.

Then I guess you will have to do so OR, just stay with CWM recovery installed on your device.

I don't want to pay 30$ for just a single rom flashing.
Is it possible to backup my current rom and then flash a custom rom with cwm 5.0.2.6 without getting bricked.
Worst case scenerio if would have bricked the thing could i restore the backup i would have had or flash a custom rom.
Please help me yagya. I came to this point by not reading carefully your cwm installing guide.(noticed the 5.0.2.6 warning but it was too late) i am not blaming or anything just aiming your conscience.

So, you mean to tell you have CWM v5.0.2.6 and you want to get rid of it just because you saw a warning on my post.... If yes, then don't worry, CWM v5.0.2.6 works fine (at least for me). Try for yourself. But, since many other complained to me about flashing error with latest CWM I included the warning.
However, If it doesn't work OR if you want to go back to CWM v4.0.0.5, simply flash the CWM v4.0.0.5 from Odin using One package option. You will get CWM v4.0.0.5 on your device.
Also, downgrading to stock recovery if you are using custom rom is not recommended. Just flash older CWM recovery and everything will be fine. If you need any help follow the link on my signature.
I hope I understood your problem and it will help you. If I am wrong please correct me.

Wrong Section buddy.. Galaxy Ace has a its own section so better ask there.. or search on yagya's blog site, link on his signature..

you only have 1 possibility.reflash your kernel andyour rom,use wotan server,i hope that they bring software to flash samsung and sony ericsson smarphones,flash with it and this must erase cwm

[Q] Galaxy Ace stuck in reboot loop

My Galaxy Ace is stuck in a reboot loop after trying to flash 2.3.6 onto it, when it had 2.3.5 on it previously.
I've used ODIN and no matter what firmware I try to flash onto it, it just goes into a reboot loop.
Any idea how to fix it?

Did you try to do a wipe?

press down home button and then power on phone ...--> you will enter into recovery mode .
select wipe with help of volume keys and there you go out of bootloop

My Galaxy Ace is also in some sorta reboot loop.
Everything was working fine with it (phone is rooted and CWM installed) until I did a phone reset because I was giving the phone to my gf. After doing this the phone reboots, the blue samsung logo plays (without sound) and then repeats ad-infinitum. I can get into recovery mode and download mode ok and I've tried wipe and even restored a CWM backup (it says it was successful) but the phone just keeps rebooting. I can see the phone in odin but I've never tried to flash anything onto it and quite frankly I'm unsure whether it would just make things worse (if it needs to go back to Samsung for repair). Any help would be appreciated...

If you have cwm ..why dont you download some custom rom like cm7and flash it ..that would bring your phone back to life ...then you can downgrade to stock rom if you want ...and btw in cwm try cache partition , clear data /factory reset and clear dalvik cache ..see if it boots after you do this ..

when i always flash by odin or by cwm i always do wipe , wipe cache and wipe dalvik, this helps me everytime

I managed to flash a firmware from samfirmware and it fixed the reboot.
Now my issue is when I connect to Kies, it says there's an updated firmware for the phone but it fails every attempt to install it. I went back to samfirmware and found this firmware: S5830ZSKPD ## but when I download and extract it there's only 1 x MD5 file and 1 x DLL file?! The other firmware had the 4 or 5 files needed to include in Odin... any ideas guys?

I think its a "one package file " ..I forgot the correct name but there is some option like that in odin ..dont worry it contains all the required files ..and if you are scared to do it then go to you tube ..there are many tutorials showing it then...

Yep, that's exactly what it was, thanks again.
Unfortunately with this firmware, Kies doesn't recognise it and provides no info.
I flashed back to the older firmware... I'll just have to keep experimenting I guess.

many people says, don't upgrade the firmware with KIES.

Well I could flash it with Odin if I had the firmware but I don't.
It appears it's not available on SamFirmware.com
Do you know where I can download the following firmware?
PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
Thanks

Lol I cant understand those firmwares ..can you tell me which version of android you want like 2.3.4/2.3.5/2.3.6 ...then ill be able to help you wanr

Thanks anyway but I managed to find the firmware online and flashed it using Odin.
Now Kies says I'm using the latest which is a good start : )
Now I just need to find a way to root my SGS2 GT-I9100T

U can try a custom ROM from the Developer's forums here.
I also once stucked in the Reboot Loop..............
But then I installed a custom or if you want features from a official Rom, you can install Stock Based custom ROm from the Developer forums of Galaxy Ace. Really good Rom have been made by the developers

In the chance that someone else is looking for this latest OEM firmware update:
PDA:KPD / PHONE:KPD / CSC:KPC (THL)
It can be downloaded from: http://translate.googleusercontent....flgljh&usg=ALkJrhiMpHV83dugh4RGwhKpyjIrYIgn2Q
It is in "one part file" format and can be flashed using Odin.

whatever may be the problem ......just rem to keep a backup of ur previously used rom and just flash it with cwm...

Progress?

Galaxy S wont boot

Hi guys,
i just got a Galaxy S (international, germany) and wanted to flash Clockwork Mod so i can flash a custom rom (miui). I got it with version 2.2 so i rooted it with z4root 1.3 and then tried RomManager to get CWM on it. But it did always reboot into Samsung stock recovery mode. So i tried this Odin3 1.7 and flashed a Kernel and got into a bootloop (First this one, then i used the one promoted in this video (YouTube Video, description XDA Thread with promoted Kernel. Phone now stuck at booting (isn`t even bootlooping, just stuck at the GALAXY S GT etc. logo. I still can reach the Download Mode.
Can anyone please help how to get at least the phone working again I`m really desperatly.
Greetings from Germany & Merry Christmas

Install a new Rom with odin will make your phone boot again.

2.2 is probably too old now.
Upgrade to Gingerbread Stock using Odin. Turn on Repartition and follow the instructions to flash.
Download a Custom Kernel for the Gingerbread firmware that you flashed. Every Kernel except the stock comes with CWM Recovery.
Copy the MIUI zip file to sdcard and flash it with recovery. It should boot right up.
If you are still having bootloops, try doing a factory reset and then boot MIUI.

Don't try things that you aren't experienced with.
Anyway, download odin 1.85, flash stock Froyo, launch Kies, update to official Gingerbread, launch Odin, flash Semaphore Kernel and GG.
Merry Christmas!

How can i flash Stock Froyo/Gingerbread trough Odin? Can`t find anything usefull @ google
btw i can reach Recovery Mode (CWM / Speedmonk something)
(Kinda experienced by flashing around with my N1 for around 2 years now, but never heard about this Odin Program)
thanks for help anyway

I am not going to help you with this one. You need to get comfortable with the forum and its contents first. Read all the guides and stickies before proceeding with Firmware flashing. There are many different types of firmwares with Bootloaders which are often dangerous to flash and few without bootloaders. Hence, first go through the guides and go with the flashing only when you are confident that you are doing everything in right order.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379853

Just do what dhiru1602 says. after you flashed it with the latest Gingerbread ,
flash the cf-root kernel with odin . than download the latest galaxian/semaphore kernel, copy it to your internal sd-card and flash it with the app SGS Kernel Flasher . you can find that app on the market. good luck mate !

Thanks guys, u really saved christmas for me Just booted up the latest Miui Rom!
Happy Holidays

Galaxy S ODIN Flash

Guys I've got a problem with my Galaxy S i9000 with CM9. It stopped working after restart (endless loop on Cyangenmod logo) and now I'cant get to recovery mode. Only download mode works, so I think that I must to flash it with ODIN. And there is a problem, because I can't find proper CM9 ROM files for ODIN. And what version of ODIN should I use? Now I've got 4.38 and phone is visible - it's OK?
I will be very pleased for ROM files to ODIN and some instructions how to flash it propely. I've read many threads from morning, but I can't find ROMs

Hi there,
afaik there are no CM Versions flashable via ODIN.Use ODIN to flash a Stock firmware, then install ClockworkModRecovery and Install CM9 via CWM.
You should try to take Out your Battery for about 5 minutes and try to enter Recovery Mode.
About the Odin Version: If you look at different "howto use ODIN tutorials" there are different Versions "recommended" I've used multiple ODIN Versions eg 1.3 / 1.83 and every Version made a good job.
Give this a try if Battery-out for 5 Minutes does't take you back to recovery

How to install CWM Recovery?

I downloaded several versions of CWM for S3 Mini (e.g. PhilZ CWM, 6.0.3.2, 6.0.2.7, 6.0.2.8. touch...), all installable via Odin. I put TAR into PDA and click Start, Odin show message that update is successful (after 6 seconds) but when I enter into Recovery mode, there is still native Android recovery.
My device is not rooted and it has original 4.1.2. android. I tried to change Recovery first in order to root it. What am I doing wrong? I also have Galaxy S3 and I can change Recovery which I want, so I am not noobie in custom recovery install procedure via Odin.
Please, help because S3 Mini is mystique for me

Huh, I tried also with Odin 3.09 and it didn't work. Odin notifies that file is uploaded but still I have original recovery. Any other idea?
