[Q] Is warranty void if I have ClockWorkMod Recovery?

I have this exact same problem with my Galaxy Note GTN7000. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692582.
Don't know what it's called. Soft-bricked? hard-bricked? But I was able to reset the binary count to 0 and in Odin Mode it says, CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD : NO and CURRENT BINARY : SAMSUNG OFFICIAL.
But when I go into recovery, it is ClockWorkMod Recovery and not the stock recovery. Can I still get warranty? What can I do to get rid of CWM recovery and get stock recovery back and also keep binary count 0?
Please help me

Anything that isnt official samsung will void warranty.
What you can do is flash a stock firmware via ODIN and job done, That will not increase binary count, Binary count raises when flashing kernels via ODIN.
Or better still, If you can just find stock kernel for ODIN, then just flash that as that will contain stock recovery too.

Thanks a lot for that I tried to flash a stock ROM and since mine's bricked, it was unsuccessful.
Now I get this message on switching on - Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
And now I can't seem to open in recovery mode. In Odin MODE, custom binary download says NO and current binary is Samsung OFFICIAL.
So is that good enough to get warranty?

If its not booting into recovery then yes, you should be fine, They wont suspect nothing if the binary count is 0 and there is no yellow triangle.
Just say there was an OTA update and this is what happened after it installed.
They will just simply see the kies message, plug it into their computer and flash latest software, then return it to you

Flash stock rom with pc odin.
That will give you everything as stock, recovery, baseband, kernel without binary counter raise

dude .. hes not able to flash the stock rom.. any how.. if you are not able to boot into recovery... then u are good to go...

download your stock rom using samfirmware and flash using odin.
if you have doubts search google how to go back to stock kernel you will find videos

Guys he already got his answer.
No need to repeat over and over the same thing paraphrased.

G800F: FAILED ODIN Firmware Upgrade. All Fail.

So I wanted to upgrade my firmware to the latest build, and having vast experience doing so, I downloaded from Sammobile.com the latest firmware build for my G800F and Odin showed "FAILED" with no error reported on the steps screen. Tried again, FAIL, swapped cables, FAIL.
I tried loading other firmwares...and nothing. The Download mode screen reads:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SM-G800F
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUN OFFICIAL
SYSTEM STATUS: OFFICIAL
Secure Download: Enabled
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1
AP SWREV: A1
ASV GROUP: 7
Any ideas or suggestions?

Try the Odin version contained in CF-Auto-Root
https://download.chainfire.eu/523/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-kminilte-kminiltexx-smg800f.zip
Have no problem with G800F and this latest 4.4.2 (15 May 2015) G800FXXU1AOE3_G800FDBT1AOC1_G800FXXU1AOE3_HOME.tar
Use Odin with admin rights,
don't know if necessary, but clear your internal storage and wipe everything before flash with TWRP:

Had the same on G800H while flashed latest Stock ROM published on sammobile.. finally the following steps a working (in my case)
flashing the stock firmware through Odin (ignore failed message)
take off the battery and put it back in
boot into Download mode.
flashing the twrp recovery
Reboot normal
The rom is now updated and had no problems with it (flashed it on this way 2 weeks ago)

Download n910t pit file and flash the pit file with the firmware. Make sure repartiton is checked. And let it reboot without pulling the the usb out.. the first thing it always does after odin to stock is reboot to recovery....are you getting any errors when you try to flash the firmware? Download this firmware. It is untouched full stock wipes everything

I'm having the same problem. I'm not getting any errors, and I found and flashed the PIT file with the stock firmware. Still no boot. It just sits on the boot up screen. No recovery, no battery icon...no nothing.

Hey, thanks for the response. I tried this and actually got the first successful flash all day. However, on reboot I sat at the Samsung splash screen and didn't pass that. Further attempts to flash using the same setup are all FAILing again now, too. Bummer..

Try different usb cable i had same issue few days ago and i figure out it was usb cable that cause this.
After flash firmware Must do wipe data factory reset and wipe cache from stock recovery otherwise it will stuck in bootloop at splash screen.
Make sure you are flashing correct firmware for your model.
If this didn't work then flash twrp in odin and flash from twrp any rom for your model but it will trip knox and void your warranty.
Hope that helps

Try Odin 3.09 and uncheck reboot option,
when then download is finished "Pass" disconnect and pull the battery out and go to recovery mode,
wipe partition, wipe Data then restart, you will be fine.

Hey thanks for this. Odin 3.09 seems to PASS flash every time, which is awesome.
On booting into recovery, however I drop into the Android robot animated system update screen. No option to factory reset.
I briefly get 'Installing Update' with a progress bar
then it goes to Erasing... for some time.
Then "Installing system update..." with no progress bar.
Finally, reboots and hangs at the Samsung splash screen after the blue LED lights
This thing has been 100% stock but I might try to flash TWRP or idunno what else to try. Found out it'll be $150-$175 deductible to get a replacement so I definitely have an interest in saving this thing.
edit: actually after a couple more tries I got this thing to actually boot. dropped into fresh Samsung setup routine. success!!.... sort of. crashed mid-setup and rebooted. which was the behaviour I was attempting to address by resetting this thing in the first place. ehhhh wonder if I don't actually have a bad emmc/flash memory/chipset whatever. will keep trying.
edit2: random crashing all the time. finally made it all the way through setup to the home screen, but don't think this is gonna get better. i could try to re-flash, or flash a custom recovery or a custom rom or idk? basically back at square 1.

i'm having essentially the same issue as you are, I think it may be time to move on for myself. I would like to get it to boot so I can "jump" to a different phone because I have $98 left to pay on her and that plus 175 for a refurb probably burned screen hardware is a kick to the pants. I can get recovery to work both stock recovery and twrp but nothing I flash will stick to the system partition it seems.
back to trying a little more then google pixel here I come if she won't come back from the dead...
