Default CWM not removed after flashing stock rom (XWKI4) via odin..

After rooting my phone everything was great but then my usb port started to malfunction so to get it repaired i needed to remove root and CWM, after flashing the stock rom (XWKI4) root still shows under kernel version and CWM and superuser still remain.

Then you are doing something wrong as stock flash changes kernel and removes a rooted kernel . use a different download or firmware .

Should I be using just the pda section of odin or csc and phone too?
Should I try a different firmware for my phone to see if that works?

Follow the instructions from the relevant thread you are getting the firmware from depending upon how many parts are to be flashed .

YES
