I am very new to this rooting process of Android but I figured Cyanogen seemed simple enough, but I managed to screw it up. The phone boots up to TWRP 2.3.3.1 but the phone has no OS installed so I don't know what to do.... Please someone help.

Make sure you have your Drivers installed!
Download a rom compatible to your device.
Then connect your phone via USB to your PC.
Now go to Advanced-> Mount USB
If you have the correct Drivers it should detect your device and you can put the rom onto your phone.
Then You can flash it!

I have a ATT sgh-1717 samsung note with Android 4.0 on it. I tried to root it this morning using Odin3 and pda.tar. It passed but I am unable to put on the next file Superuser 3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip. It just goes to a black screen with samsung logo. If I hold down the volume up and down at the same time as the power button I am able to go into Clockwork mode. I can not reboot my phone. What can I do at this point? Is there a way to copy the zip file to the sd card on my phone? Any suggestion is greatly appreciated! I have been reading all day and am quite frustrated at this point. Of course my schedule is on my phone....Thank you so much.

Put it on Download mode and go back to stock and try again. and Superuser can be install from the PlayStore
Take the sd card out and put it in a pc and copy the file to the sd card.

You. are right! I don't understand. I followed a guide and got stuck, now I am trying to get some help. I just wan to get my phone up and running. Please point me in the right direction.
I found the easiest way for me was to download custom Rom to sd.move it to external.odin cwm then flash twrp.reboot to recovery n wipe all caches.system.internal.not external.then install ur custom Rom.reboot system n let Rom settle.most roms already have the rooted files.if ur planning to stay stock.there's plenty of present roms for that.n make sure all the devs get their thx :thumbup:

Are you able to boot into recovery? And if so, what version of CWM are you running?

First of all, when you power on your prime where is the "NVIDIA" logo? Bottom middle or bottom right ?

This means you are still on the ICS bootloader.. First thing we need to do is get a version of TWRP on there that supports ICS. Do not use CWM on prime. Too easy to brick.
What rom do you want to go to ?

How can I flash a different recovery?

Can you get into fastboot? You do so by powering off the prime and then holding down the power button and the volume button the same time for about 10 seconds until you see icons appear on your screen. Then you use volume down to go over to the usb icon and then press volume up to select it. The device will say starting fastboot protocol on the screen and freeze.
Plug it into the pc and check device manager to see if it is installed.
Let me know when you get this far.
The pc recognize the prime. So far its good.
What should I do now?

There is a file attached to this post. Download it and make a folder on one of your drives on pc and extract it. (eg d:/twrp)
There is a bat file inside. Run it and follow the onscreen instructions.
After you get TWRP installed be careful what rom you are flashing and what recovery because they require new bootloaders and if you flash the wrong recovery for the wrong bootloader you will hard brick your device.
Which version of energy rom do you want to install.. Give me version number please.

The one you linked to should be fine. NRG has the bootloader upgrade and the TWRP upgrade built into the rom.
After you get it all flashed and working tho DO NOT flash another recovery as they will not be compatible. Never use that zip file I just gave you again because that will not be compatible and lastly Never use CWM again lol.
Good luck
Thanks man. Wher can I see a guide about the compatble roms and bootloader?

There has only been 3 really.
There is the ICS bootloader the JB 4.1.1 bootloader and the new 4.2.1 bootloader.
Flashing a rom that isn't for your bootloader will not brick you.
Flashing a recovery that is not meant for your bootloader WILL brick you.

You can adb push a file but then you are going to need adb files on computer.
When you go to install select internal up the top and then go the folders in the list and select up a level to go to root on the left and then select external_sd. Anything in there?
So, I have the SHG-I777 and I had stock 4.0.3 but the cellphone started to reboot over and over again so I made a factory reset wipe cache and those things and the cellphone was working fine until today.
It started to reboot, I think it was on a loop (Sorry for the bad english) And I Couldnt do anything with it, I made factory reset again and it turned on but in safe mode and every process in the cellphone just stopped I wasnt even able to select a launcher..
It rebooted lots of time again and now it just stays in the "Siyah Kernel" screen.. Now I cant do anything andddd the laptop does not recognize it so I cant use Odin .. I trough that I could flash the stock 4.0.3 again via recovery mode but I dont know how to do it.. or if I should flash another Rom or a custom rom.. the only thing that I can do with the cellphone is to get into recovery mode.
help?

I've read the stickies (Im sorry for not doing that before), I'm still looking for a solution, I'm dowloading kies in another computer to see if the pc actually recognizes my phone, so I can be sure that the problem is my laptop and not the phone... if it does I'll just flash with odin a stock rom.. I'll update here the results.

Happened to me like you. Then look for the Odin 3.14 and a kernel and pass it. keep in mind that it is a risky process. another question, you still has the rom into your sdcard? because if you do not forget to pass, because when you pass the kernel by Odin on it goes straight to CWM

The root method works, sounds like you need to educate yourself on how to use ADB correctly.
