Hello, i've just bought a stock SGS+, with stock rom and recovery. I'd like to install 4.2.2, and my problem is that the phone is still on warranty. Will my warranty be void if I install CWM (I know it will if i install custom roms, but that can be easily reverted to stock), and if it will, can i return to the stock recovery in any way later? Thanks for help and sorry for my bad english

Type *#1234# and write down what you seen in screen. Inorder to claim the warranty you must need that to return to the exact stock Rom which your phone was shipped with. Also take precautions before you start flashing. Take backup of efs and persist. Once you lost these files you can't get them back.
Always be prepared to face an unexpected brick/bootloop/freeze/random reboots etc. Get ready with all the informations to overcome these situations. Happy flashing..
Edit : Flashing stock Rom will overwrite all the previous custom installations. And revert to the stock. Don't worry. There will be stock recovery.

Hey man, thanks for the reply! So, if just download the right rom (Build Info : Tue Feb 21 11:10:17 KST 2012 i suppose), and install it through CWM, will it delete CWM and revert to stock recovery?

No. You have to flash stock Rom via Odin. The details of which you can be found herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1922505.

Hey, one more question - when I install CWM can I install 4.2.2 straight away from 2.3.6? Or do I have to do something more?
And which one is better, CWM or TWRP?

Yea you can install. But don't forget to wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvic cache before installing the zip.
I am using CWM 6.0.3.2 and not facing an issue with it. Haven't used TWRP yet... so can't comment about it. Those who are using says its good.
Really thanks for all the help man! Btw, I see that you're using liquidsmooth, same one that i'm planing to get. How's it running?

Hey, once again I have a question. I want to be fully prepared, so i found a tutorial as illustrated as possible, and I would like to ask if it's a good one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776095
Also, is the stockification process the same, but with stock ROM package, or is something different?

It;s a brilliant tutorial. Explained there is a method installing CWM, Rooting and Deodexing of untouched stock ROM users.
You can use the same method as explained in CWM installation using Odin to revert back to stock. Only one difference, instead of that recovery image you have to select the stock ROM image.
Give a Big thanks to Broodplank1337 for such a wonderful tutorial.:good:
Thanks for all the support man ^^
In the tutorial i see CWM v5.5.0.4, and you have 6.0.1.3, and on one thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843825) I've seen that there is 6.0.2.6 already, but they're .zip, not .tar. I should flash 5.5.0.4 with Odin first and then install new CWM .zip through CWM, am I right? And when i'm revering to stock, do i have to download the right firmare, or can i just backup my own? Or if I backup it with CWM will it lose the stock recovery?
And also, I can't find any /efs /persist backup tutorial :C Sorry for all your time taken, but perhaps you have any link? Thanks again
Recovery
Well when i need waranty i just need to restore the rom but what about recovery ? can i leave it on CWM 6

Yes you can install CWM 5.5.0.4. If you are looking for a newer version, you can use Alireza7991's CWM 6.0.3.2(thanks to him). you can find both .tar and .zip files there.
When reverting to stock, you have to download any stock. If it's for warranty purposes, you need to download the one for your region.
In order to flash the stock rom, you have to use odin, not CWM.
Here is how you can backup your /efs and /persist
Good luck.

As i said before, when you flash the stock, all your previous customizations will also lost. After that there will be only stock recovery.
Thanks again for all the answers, still got one question - when is the possibility of losing efs or persist? During rom flash or CWM flash? Can i flash the CWM without the risk of losing esf?

Risks will be there all the time. No one can assure you that any step or method is 100% fool proof. That's why all the developers in here underlying that "Try it your own"., they take no responsibility of any damages.

I mean, when comes the risk of losing these partitions (even after successfull flashing), after flashing CWM or after flashing rom? I'm asking that because i have to root the phone to backup them, and the easiest way to root is to install the .zip through CWM

First off I would like to thank everyone on this amazing site for all the advice, guides and tutorials.
I unlocked my nexus bootloader and flashed a couple different roms. I really like the rom manager so I've used that to download roms and then flash them using that app.
When I downloaded the stock version of 91and flashed it, the phone no longer seemed to have root or clockwork recovery but my bootloader was still unlocked. When I downloaded rom manager, it could not get super user permissions, this being useless in flashing a backup or new rom. So I used universal one click root to gain root access and then rom manager was able to flash a backup.
I know this may be a dumb question but hope someone could explain to me why I needed to re-root and why I lost clockwork recovery...?
Thanks for the help in advance.

Right theres your problem. stock roms dont have root built in you have to root them again. unless you download a prerooted stock rom. hope this helps.

Yep this seems to be your problem. If you're wanting stock with the basic add-ons then the first link in this thread is your answer: Link.

The advantage of unlocking your bootloader means you can flash a custom recovery from Fastboot mode, without having to "root" the ROM. Next time this happens you can just boot into fastboot and flash clockwork from there like this:
fastboot flash recovery PATHTO\RECOVERYFILENAME.img
so say you download clockwork and save it to c:\sdk\fastboot named recovery.img from a command prompt you enter the following
cd \sdk\fastboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
once it is done flashing you can do this
fastboot reboot recovery
and that should take you into clockwork where you can flash your favorite ROM (or restore a backup).
Thanks for the help. I will be sure to try that method out next time. Very helpful.
Hello. Well i have a big problem with my Captivate. All custom roms that i have tried (Cyanogen, MIUI, Cognition, Serendipity, and the ICS rom by teamhacksung) won't bother to install. I always flash back to stock 2.1 via Odin-1-Click, root it via Samsung Galaxy S 1 Click Root, and install the Hardcore Speedmod Kernel for Clockwork mod. I follow all the directions completely and with Cyanogen i always get a boot loop, and with all the others clockwork mod freezes while it is installing the rom. I thought it was taking it's time so i left it overnight to complete. About 8 hours later it was still at the same screen where it said "Installing Update." Can anyone help?

What do you recommend to install the roms? Odin restores the captivate back to stock perfectly without any problems.

Here's what I would do:
Odin1Click to stock
Master Clear
When the phone reboots, copy this and the ROM you want to flash to your SD card
Reboot into recovery, and select "install from zip"
Select the update.zip you just downloaded
It will cycle thru once, do it one more time, you'll then boot into CWM
Select to install from zip again, this time select your ROM
and you should be good to go

Flashing the kernel was getting you in bootloops.

Which ROM do you want to run? CM7/Miui/ICS are VERY simple, GB is a LITTLE bit more complicated, you have to flash the boot loaders first(and has a bit more risk of bricking too). With GB, just make sure you read very well, and fully understand what you need to do BEFORE you do it

Make sure to do a Master Clear first. Save everything you want to keep on a ext SD, and back everything up. Master Clear will return the phone just like you got it from AT&T. It erases EVERYTHING
Also, I remove my SIM and ext SD before I M/C just to be safe

Don't hit it with a brick?
When you are using Odin1Click make sure you don't disconnect your USB, or knock the battery out, make sure your battery is more than 50%(100 is best).
If you look under your battery, is there a tag with numbers like, 10.06, 10.07, 10.08 and so on there? If there is, what is yours?

I have a quick question regarding upgrading to ICS from GB. I'm running KK4. If I were to CWM to ICSSGS or TeamHacksungs ROM, could I just do an Odin oneclick back to KK4 if I don't like them (without problem of bricking)? I know the basics of flashing , just wanna make sure coming back to my stable ROM will be as easy as a 1click. Thanks!

You definitly made a mistake somewhere. Try the v20s bin/fls files from my noob how to, since they also work for me. Did you wipe everything when you were in recovery + flash superuser.zip? Unroot ROM is ready, but you need CWM to flash it and will lose all kind of root access.

That's cause you didn't follow all the steps.. When you flash higher versions, it has to repartition. Therefor a couple flashes are needed. If coming from gb and going up to 10.2 or 10.3, you'll have to flash cm7 first and then make your way to cm10.2, once again by flashing twice to rewrite the partition.
All that is clearly mentioned in the instructions. Just gotta take the time to read and understand it.

i know the repartitioning thing but not from this phone. trust me if it was clear in the instructions i would have done it 4-5 roms iv tried and none of them have this instruction i appreciate your resonse though but onto a solution. i think since it refuses to mount the sdcard smtn went wrong trying to install cm10.2 though they all faild. so im guessing my safest bet to be to use odin to load a new rom or something advice there or from that of your experince with the device would be much appreciated.

I'd probably start fresh at this point. Flash Odin kk4 without bootloaders and see if boots up correctly. Also try your sd card. From there you can flash korn kernel using odin 1.87 and go back up to whichever ROM you want using their full instructions.

the kernel seems to be packaged with cwm tho i doubt it is this true on all occasions?not being able to flash a rom due to the kernel mismatch is unheard of by me atleast it would flash then just not work can u explain what you think was the problem i was on cm10 btw.
korm kernel gonna research that but i might get anseers from you first its a kernel for what gb??
sorry am reallly blank on this phone

Getting impatient is the worse thing you can do.. Now you'll have to flash the gb bootloaders cause you just flashed 2.2.
Now flash this: http://click.xda-developers.com/api...e</b></font>&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13811531834186
And please, be patient. Don't interrupt it for any reason!!
From there, follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
I'm sorry but I can't hold your hand through all this, I'm in class.

BTW readme is exrtremly clear that it dosnt contain any bootloader files which i guess since i did the other thing would make this irrelavant and i could just go to the 2nd instructions but ill do to the T. BIG THANKS

In that case, flash the first link I gave you. Which is the non-bootloaders version.
Usually, the older one clicks flashes the bootloaders.
Ok. So im trying to install the bloatware removal script by @CoOoL_BoY. I will post the link to the original topic and hopefully sombody can help.

So this is my problem. I have the AT&T Note 3 which as far as i know has a locked bootloader or somthing like that. I cant find anywhere to install CWM or TWRP i cant find any downloads for that recovery tool for my phone, from what i see they dont exist so can sombody please help me get this script installed to my phone. Is there some other app that will flash the script to my phone or do whatever needs to be done so i can get it to work. My phone is rooted and i have tried to get CWM and TWRP and it doesnt work. Is there an alternative or somthing i can use. Any help would be great thanks in advance. I have the MJ5 build and on 4.3

Yes we have a locked bootloader. We have to use safestrap instead of the usual recovery like cwm or twrp.

Thank you so much i saw this post before but i stayed away from it because im new to android and this rooting/hacking...im not gonna lie ive always been an iphone person with a jailbreak but i dont hate on either phone because they are both great just personal preference. but thanks for the help now i have that working soll my last thing to figure out that scares me the most lol is installing new roms because thats how my first android messed up then i switched to iphone and have used them forever. do you know of a post that shows you how to set up the rom i can only find a post of compatible roms but i went to the safestrap screen and there is 4 rom slots and my stock rom slot and im not sure what any of that means.

Hi there, I have a question also,
Do I need to flash a custom rom using safestrap and then flash the script, or can I just use safestrap to flash the script on my ATT stock rom?
Thank you in advance.
