Let's say I want to flash a rom and made a backup thru CWM of my stock rom will I be able to keep root if I flash it back to the stock rom ?
II'm doing this cause I care most about no auto brightness issue than the actual advantage to go with a custom rom.
Thanks
Why don't you just root your stock ROM then? You need to be rooted to flash CWM recovery anyways..

If your ROM is already rooted, and you're restoring it from CWM, yes. If you're using fastboot to re-flash the stock ROM, no, you'll have to re-root it.
I'm kind of confused about what you're asking, though. Can you give more specific details? Are you going to flash a different ROM and try to flash the stock ROM, or parts of it, on top of the new ROM? I wouldn't do that unless you're very sure of what you're doing.
Hey guys I apologize if this has been answered, I searched but found nothing that addressed my question directly.
My friend decided I should root my One X, the problem is he used an old Clockwork Mod that is no longer supported. What I need to do now is unroot my phone because I'm having nothing but problems with this Rom. From what I understand from videos and everything else is I need to lock the bootloader and flash the stock rom. The issue I have is every guide I've come across so far all start out with "Only use this guide if you first rooted your phone using this method [insert author's rooting guide here]!"
Needless to say, I didn't use any of their methods. I've looked through the guides here and I see various recovery options, I'm just concerned about replacing my recovery tool. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!
If you want to go back to stock non rooted Sense, relock your bootloader and run a ruu. Check here for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
If you want to run another custom rom, you should actually just flash another recovery (read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677447) and flash another rom.
just flash stable cwm recovery-clockwork-6.0.2.8-evita.img
you can just flash it using Flash Image GUI if you can boot into your current rom, reboot recovery and flash the rom you want to flash. i wouldn't go back to pure stock seems like a waste of a good phone imo =)
Hey guys, dont know if this is a silly question. I have an HTC one s (S3 model) and I was thinking about to root my phone and install a custom rom. If i am unhappy with the results and wish to go back to my stock rom can i do that?
Also if yes, is there a way to kind of save my current rom and reinstall it again if needed?
Thanks guys !
Once you are rooted and flash a custom recovery you can backup your current rom using the recovery. With that you could go back to using the stock rom if you did not like the new one you flashed. There are many roms out there though so don't get discouraged if the first one you try isn't what you were hoping for. There are always more out there to try including many based on the stock rom.
I have a THL W100 Rev1 Phone.
Recently I installed CWM Recovery on it. I also flashed my original(Stock) rom to a Miui Rom I found on Needrom.
Problem is, Data won't work on that Rom, for whatever reason, so I'm not interested in keeping it and much rather go back to my original rom.
I tried finding the Stock rom for my phone, but some are in .rar files and require a different flashing method...
Can someone point me in the right direction so I can get back my stock rom? Is there a .zip file I can use in CWM Recovery?
Thanks for the help in advance....I'm sorry for the noob question...

In order to flash .rar files you need to use the program SP flash tool on your pc. You can find tutorials on Needrom.
So i don't know if this has been asked or tried before but i always notice that when people flash new roms or go back to stock they sometimes lose root
or even custom recovery.
I could be wrong but before you reboot your phone,
after you just installed that rom couldn't you just flash the recovery.img and then flash the superuser.zip?
i mean shouldn't it at least work?
just curious.
