Hey I'm trying to use the universal root, but apparently, the .7 thing is not allowing me to use it. Anyway I can go back to stock because I'm not rooted, and I can't flash anything? Thanks.

Hi -
first post - but I've been reading a lot.
I've rooted my xoom wifi us version, installed tiamat 2.1.0 rom and the tiamat 2.1 kernel - so far so good.
been playing around a bit, and was wondering if I can go back to the stock 3.2 Rom.
I'd like to remain rooted, and plan on still running the 2.1 kernal after I go back to the stock rom.
Is this possible?
can you point me to the right thread? or at least the right search terms, because I cant seem to find anything.
Flash official images. Get ota's and install them. Reroot/flash kernal etc.
I thought if I was rooted, then I can't flash the official image since the OTAs would not work?

No...once you flash the original stock images you will no longer be rooted. You will still be unlocked, just not rooted.

If you use the stock images, you will need to use fastboot.
any one know how to back to stock
Erm, you have installed a custom rom and want to revert to stock? I guess that's your question, right?

just fxz back (see the noob thread) then re root. it only take less than 5 minutes to re root, it is best to ota to 2.3.6 before rooting after the stock restore
Hi everyone,
Now I know I'm not alone on this because I've seen quite a few other questions about this and I haven't really seen any straight forward answers about this same problem.
Anyways I own the N8013 and like many I couldn't wait for the US version of 4.1 so I flashed the german n8010 version. No problems there, Ive been using it fine. However I always intended to go back to stock,and for the most part I have. I got back on the n8013 ics, reset the flash counter and all that so I am no longer custom and it says I haven't flashed anything. Downloaded the 4.1 OTA update, checked to make sure I wasn't rooted, I'm not, so almost everything is perfect. The only problem I have left is that SuperSU is on the device and I cant uninstall it.
Now I heard something about rooting to uninstall it but Im confused because if I root then remove it how do I unroot? Also Im worried that this will somehow affect my flash counter and official status. Anyways I'd really appreciate some help on this, I know there are others like me who could benefit from maybe a simple step by step process of getting SuperSU off and getting to unmodified, stock, unroot status. I have a physical defect with my device and even though I've heard samsung is lenient id like to not take any chances.
Again I'd really appreciate any help people have to offer, thanks for reading.
Root, run triangle away to reset counter. Go to supersu and find in settings the unroot and remove supersu setting. It will remove super su and unroot. You may need to reflash the stock recovery or stock rom again via ODIN. Stock recovery is only a few seconds, stock rom about 4 - 5 mins.... Your choice....
Should be completely stock now...

Well I already rooted and reset the counter, the problem is I can't find any setting in SuperSu to remove itself. I found the unroot which I ran but I dont know where to remove SuperSU, maybe I'm missing it? Or do I need to re root and follow these steps again? Or do I just flash stock again? Also if I flash stock through ODIN will that affect my counter? Sorry If I'm just missing it, I really appreciate your help.
Via recovery format system cache data and sd card and nothing is on the phone .
Boot to download mode and flash stock rom via Odin .

No, flashing a stock rom through ODIN won't raise flash counter..
Like the title says I am wanting to go back to stock KK but kind of at a crossroads on which method to use.
1. Unroot and go back to stock KK, then reroot.
2. Flash this deodexed version http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2562921
Either will get you what you want. The stock deodex'd is the easiest. Just flash it in recovery. Edit, it'll also keep you from losing everything on your phone.

Perfect, thank you.
I would also go de-edexed. You wont be able to get OTA updates but its much easier to modify / theme etc
