If you want to flash the full firmware, then download it from sammobile.com and flash it using Odin.
Then you can install custom recovery with Odin.
Be aware that if you flash the full firmware package, it has a new bootloader that doesn't play nice with custom recoveries. If you use any software method to boot into your custom recovery, you will get stuck in recovery and must flash stock recovery to be able to boot the OS. You can use a custom recovery only if you POWER OFF; then use the 3-button method to boot into your custom recovery.

[Q] [q] about reverting to stock recovery and updating with official jb

so i have stock rom but i have the cwm recovery install i know that i can install back to stock recovery via bootloader but some have complained that after flashing have faced the 'red triangle of doom' and are now unable to either flash the update or in some cases not boot the rom so what is the safest way to do this and what is the best recovery. img file?
What I did was restore a backup of a stock ROM, flash stock recovery and OTA popped up Had no red triangle of doom. Even if you do get that, you can still boot into the bootloader and fix things.
can u post the file wich u used for the recovery?

You can find links to stock recoveries HERE. Choose the one that matches the base rom you are using, ie 1.29, 2.17 etc.

Most likely you are trying to flash a 4.4.2 KitKat Tmobile custom rom coming from
the NB4 4.3 stock Jellybean rom.
If that's the case then you need to Odin flash the official stock kitkat 4.4.2
rom before you can flash any of the 4.4.2 kitkat custom roms.
You can download the official 4.4.2 kitkat stock Odin flash rom from
http://SamMobile.com After flashing you will need to root the phone
again and flash a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM.
Once that's done you will have no problems flashing the 4.4.2 kitkat custom roms.
Good luck!

[Q] Need help! Steps on installing lollipop with custom recovery + root

Hi guys,
I'm not sure exactly where to look for the steps because I'm in a unique situation or atleast I think I am. I need help on installing the LOLLIPOP firmware (N900TUVUFOB6) with a custom recovery and root. I am currently on a rooted note 3 v4.3 with the N900TUVUBMI7 baseband version.do I need to update my bootloader to a newer version? Should I atleast do a stock update to 4.4? Should I be using which custom recovery?
If I'm correct, I can't just flash the latest custom recovery and then flash the newest lollipop (for example the newest TEKHD like this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672393
Or can I? What If I just did a normal software update to upgrade me to lollipop, will the bootloader be blocked, disabling me from installing a custom recovery since I would want to root as well. And then would I be able to resume the steps from TEKHD instruction?
Thanks!

LG G3 T-Mobile Stock Recovery

So I rooted my G3 and I flashed twrp with flashify so I could flash xposed ( did not flash a custom ROM, just xposed) I got an OTA update so I tried flashing my stock recovery using flashify but i just got an error and had to pull the battery to reboot. I know some of you will think its pointless to root and flash a custom recovery just to revert back to stock but can anybody help me get back my stock recovery so I can get the OTA update.
You need the flash whole stock ROM via FlashTool first.

Any guide?

I need stock recovery img for n5100

Hello guys
Please help
What for? Stock is hopelessly outdated now. Booting into download mode and installing a stock rom via Odin or Heimdall will also install recovery. Or is it the stock ROM you need (4.4.something)?

Ektus.

I didn't know Rom include Recovery
Where to find free rom
