No. If you use Hurupdater you can flash your stock ROM without bootlooping. It's a tool to flash stock ROM if you want to go back from a custom ROM

i will try it out thanks for the quick support

I think you misunderstand. Hurupdater is for flashing Stock ROMs. Not Backups. You can use Hurupdater to revert to stock from a custom ROM and then Reflash it. It is not a tool for taking or restoring backups. Trying that might lead to a hard brick

HuRupdater will only work with FULL OTA's (approx >= 2 . 3GB)
After renaming the 3 files as directed and flashing them you will end up with a working stock phone.

[Q] how to un-root

How do I un-root?

Click to expand...

That depends on a lot of things.
Are you stock rooted, or are you running a custom ROM?
If you are stock rooted, do you have a custom recovery installed?
There are a bunch of ways to unroot. If you are stock rooted with stock recovery, you can remove SuperUser and the files associated with superuser in (going from memory) xbin.
If you have a (working) custom recovery (that you did not use ROM Manager to update) then you can simply flash the stock firmware in recovery (unzip the file from Asus 1 time).
If you have a TF101 (non-3G version) you can use NVFlash or EasyFlasher to flash back to stock in APX mode.
I am running KatKiss and CWM. I have superSU, and there is an option for "Full Unroot". Not sure if this would work, since I need stock rom. Would I do the full unroot, then just flash the stock rom? what would I do with the custom recovery then?
If I were to flash the stock rom, wouldn't it still be rooted, and also have custom recovery? I need to set it back to all stock and factory defaults

No, you don't need a microSD card so long as your recovery can see the internal storage.

That is Stock Recovery. You can only flash the currently installed version of the Stock ROM or a newer version of the stock ROM with stock recovery.

i wasn't planning on flashing any roms yet. So this is normal then? just want to make sure everything is working fine, and is at stock now.
I thought maybe it was broken, or I did something wrong, that this is showing up.

Even with Titanium Backup Pro, doesn't gives this Option to backup Recovery. ..

[Guide][Receive OTA after root][keep apps/data][GT-I9500][5.0.1]

a lot of users are having this problem and if you want to receive an OTA you have to flash the stock unrooted firmware that will cause lose of data.
this guide will show you how to receive OTA again without losing your stuff
This works on GT-I9500 ONLY! (Lollipop 5.0.1 Recovery)
This also should work on any other model, but you have to replace the recovery with your model!
Steps:
1- Go to SuperSU and scroll down to "Full unroot" then reboot.
2- Download This file to PC and extract it.
3- Go to download mode by pressing the power key + home key + volume down key at the same time, then press volume up.
4- Flash the file via Odin (AP) or (PDA)
go to check the system status, you will find it Official
you can now receive OTA.
Q&A:
What is OTA (Over The Air)? Its an update which you can receive over wifi or mobile data.
What do i get from OTA? Well, if you root your device you wont be able to receive an update again, unless from flashing firmware via Odin.
- Why im still on custom status? Because you modified your system.
- What kind of modifying? Installing busybox, editing or deleting or changing any app or file system.
and some times xposed.
- How do i restore the old app? You can restore them by flashing firmware or by restoring Nandroid backup.
- Then what is the use of your guide? Well my guide helps in first place the rooted not the modded onces.
and always do Nandroid of the original system apps+data
you are still having your apps, data, pics, vids, etc...
you can root again at anytime.
check my thread for rooting if you want
im not responsible for any bricks
thank you...

Hi there,
Thanks for the guide, just thinking you may want to say what option in Odin to put the file and what OTA stands for, for the noobs.
Just a thought.

At some point the update maybe canceled, because the update checks for the apps before the installation, always do a backup of your phone then remove what you want, after you want to update just restore the system folder from the backup

Someone there said first flash the ROM, then the modem--which seems to agree with the way the instructions I first showed you were written.
Then your nandroid--which must of course be from KitKat also.

It's not for FRD-L04. It's extracted from FRD-L09. However recoveries are highly compatible between different versions, regions and models of the same device (provided they have same SoC which is true in this case).
