IMPORTANT
With this recovery there were problems with the cache partition. If you should have it also Chainfire has created a fix to solve the problem. The file to scricare is as follows http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachm … 1349983558 is a zip file that contains a tar file to flash with odin. The steps are identical to those that have followed to install root and recovery. So it’s put in to flag PDA without re-partition. This fix restores the original recovery so if you want to re-enter root and recovery changed you will need to reuse one of the methods described.
