All help is appreciated, i successfully installed twrp, went to install Rom and the installation failed, now the phone only boots to recovery, sideload fails as well, the rom is in there but it fails installation every time, already installed CWM and nothing works. I can boot into bootloader and recovery perfectly just can't get it to install.
Never mind, figured it out, had an outdated twrp recovery, updated via fastboot to the new one and it worked perfectly.
thanks for those that looked anyway.

Ok, so I have been running a Honeycomb rom but wasnt happy with it so I decided to try a different one. In the Roms directions, it said to be on a stock 1.2 rom. So I downloaded the one from its instructions and flashed. All went well, it booted into the stock rom with no problem. So I put the new HC rom on my sd and renamed to update.zip. I booted into recovery and noticed that the recovery was reverted back to the stock recovery. I thought, no big deal, Ill just flash the rom from that recovery. Well it kept aborting the install for some reason. Doesnt give an error, just says installation aborted. So I figured it was the recovery that was the problem. I downloaded CWM 0.8 and followed instructions, put the recovery folder and the update.zip on the sd card, I booted into recovery and the installation bar came up like it was installing, then switched back to the stock recovery. I assumed all went well and rebooted the device then powered off again and tried to boot into CWM, shows the three birds and the recovery key detected but doesnt go any further. I can power the device off and boot it back up into the stock rom but every time I try to boot into recovery, it does the same thing and gets stuck. Any help would be great.
CWM v8 isn't compatible with 1.2 branch.

I have a rooted GT 10.1 LTE with the EH04 update. I have tried flashing via CWM which results in the obvious breakage. I have also tried installing via Recovery and Odin with the attached files and in various combinations with no luck.
Any suggestions or ideas on what I am mucking up to not be able to get CWM only my tablet?
To note: It was working prior to the EH04 update.
Bump.
Any ideas?
try the cwm here:

to a certain degree it is a lot of trial and error as to what parts of the various 10.1 models are common and which are distinct -- at this juncture what is to loose from flashing a different cwm?
Try this recovery ( flash zip)

Then try this rom

I unrooted to get the EH04 updated using this: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7718-romleakodineg01-factory-stock-odin-image-vzw-lte-tab-101/ , waited for the EH04 update, then re-rooted using this (which I used to root initially): http://rootzwiki.com/topic/2242-root-recovery-galaxy-tab-101-lte/ .
Perhaps you should unroot per the above, take the update, then re-root as above--worked for me.
i ota'd EH04, lost root. downloaded kernel.zip, applied it, got root back, installed cwmod, clicked to reboot into recovery and it's looping since, i can't do anything but get into ODIN but the PC wont recognize it, although i get a pop up saying android.. installed, adb devices doesn't pick up either. can't get into recovery.

someone warned in the forums and i didn't read it before i did it, used odin to put recovery.zip, now i'm back in action.
The recovery you provided is the same that I attached. What I discovered however is that if I booted into recovery right after installing the CWM recovery, CWM would load. If I booted into stock EH04 then back into recovery, the stock recovery would load. It seems as if the ROM was restoring stock recovery when it loaded. After installing Lightspeed, CWM recovery stayed in place.
Either way, thank you for the assistance. I hope this thread ends up helping someone else.
My steps to install Lightspeed from Stock ROM EH04:
1. reboot recovery, install either recovery.zips above.
2. When the system automatically reboots, hold volume up to boot into recovery again. This time it should be CWM.
3. Wipe cache and factory reset
4. Install Lightspeed ROM

Thank you. Everytime I tried flashing cwm recovery, I would always end up back at stock recovery. Your fix worked perfect.
I'm having problems booting into Recovery. I used the method here: All In One Root Recovery Installer to root and get a custom recovery on my phone. After installing CWM that was included with the package, my phone rebooted into Recovery once. I was able to wipe Cache/Dalvik. Phone has been running great with no issues except when I try to boot into Recovery it goes straight the the Android OS/Home Screen. The blue letters show up on the top left of the screen like it's going to boot into recovery but it doesn't.
I was thinking about doing two things:
1. Running the tool again and installing CWM again.
2. Downloading ROM Manager and have that install CWM.
Can I do these things without messing anything up?
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
Hi! I've been messing with my phone for a while and have it rooted and Bumpd with TWRP and I recently decided to switch back from the unofficial CM12 to the system backup I made before flashing CM. After I restored it, it wanted to install a sprint update and said it would reboot to install it, stupidly I pressed "okay" and didn't realize that it probably wouldn't install correctly with TWRP and not the original recovery. Now every time I restart the phone it boots into recovery (I assume because it wants to install the update). I have tried to boot it into download to reinstall the stock firmware but it still boots into recovery. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Have a great day! from my LG G3
HI, so I'm on MDK, rooted, and running GPE 5.0 LP, and I was recently attempt to update my recovery. I used Jrummy's ROM installer to install the TWRP 2.8.3. I rebooted, and now when i load into recovery, it says "kernel secure fail" and won't let me do anything. Is there a way to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.
Update: After attempting to reboot it a few times, I am able to boot to ROM, but still unable to boot to recovery.

Boot to the ROM and install Flashify from the Google Play store. Use it to install the latest TWRP. That should clear everything up.

Hmm. Ok so I installed TWRP 2.8.3 via Flashify, and successfully rebooted to recovery. I then flashed JFLTE-GPE 5.0 (jan. 2nd version). Now can't boot to either recovery or ROM, both of which are saying "secure fail: kernel." I did not loki doki. Ahh help!
Update: After rebooting multiple times, I can now reboot to recovery, but not to ROM.
Update: I used the 12/24 loki doki and now it seems like the ROM is working.

I ran into a similar problem, and had to completely restore to stock via Odin.
What were your steps here? Also I had trouble getting loki to install, which steps did you use?
