I previously rooted and installed cyanogenmod 11 on my international galaxy S3, i encountered some bugs and waned to switch back to Touchwiz, I managed to get back to touchwiz which i downloaded from sammobile.com (United kingdom - vodafone edition) I am on EE and the phone is locked to them, when I put my phone into download mode, nothing recognizes it, I cant flash in odin as it doesnt work. is this to do with me putting a vodafone version on? there was vodafone apps which i managed to delete. the phone works fine but i wanted to know if there is a fix to this or have i stopped myself from rooting this phone ever again? I have no clue if i have stock or custom recovery, and how would I know?
