I have no idea what you are meaning thru stock bootloader. Do you mean thru stock recovery? Are you saying you are stuck in a boot loop?
What was your firmware, what Rom version were you running, what safestrap did you have loaded....need some basic info

If i click reboot will just take me back to samsung svreen and then the.stock recovery
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
im on stock root and i wanted to hopefully flash a rom, but first i needed a custom recovery. On my phone, i downloaded Rom manager and it asked me to install cwm. it found my device and it downloaded and said installed successfully. i rebooted into recovery and from there it loops and boots into recovery non stop. i remove the battery and put it back in and it still tries to boot into recovery with the loop. (Semi-fix) when i remove my battery and boot into download mode. i can cancel it and it will skip trying to boot into recovery and load just fine. i can then shut down or restart as needed. but booting back into recovery will start the issue over again. i just want to know a safe way to have cwm on my note 3, or how to revert it back to normal. any help please?

Pull battery let it sit for two minutes. Push menu button, volume down button, and power button at the same time boot into download mode. once there flash a fresh copy of your OS which ever version of KitKat your running. You lose all your personal data, but your beyond that now. Then here is link to my thread should answer all your questions http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 enjoy !!!

Yeah ive said it a few times this should not be used
If youve bricked your phone you can get back into your phone by holding volume down menu botton and power botton at the same time when it pops up the warning screen to enter download mode hit cancel your phone will then boot up after your phone is on if you do not have a computer the way you fix the phone so you dont have to do this every time your phone is off you need mobile odin and a kitkat cwm.img.tar for our phone flash it and problem solved you can now boot into cwm recovery then if you want you can flash a twrp img zip through cwm or just keep cwm hope this helps
Ps if you Google mobile odin the dev gives it away on his xda mobile odin page

First, pull the battery for a minute then reinstall hold the power, menu, and volume down buttons at the same time and boot into download mode. The version of Phil'z CWM you flashed is to old for 4.4.4 NK4. Now download to your desktop the right Philz CWM recovery file (Phil'z_Touch_6.48.4-hlte.tar.md5 ) here is the link https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/hlte/ there are two listed use the second one. Flash with odin and you should be good to go. Go to my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 for more info.
done exactly as you said and the same screen came up saying recovery is not seandroid enforcing and then it jumps to Philz Touch 6 so im assuming everything is right now...i really appreciate the help! tyvm
different rom
ok..i installed cyanogen rom..i also used titanium backup..i want to go back to where i was but i dont see titanium backup on there anymore..how do i revert back?
i guess i need to update my phone n900p (help)
my rooted note 3 was running 5.0 L so i tried flashing a custom recovery both TWR and CWM now its stuck in boot loop. i read all the post showing you how to get out the bootloop. how ever i still need to put a recovery on my phone are there any updated links for this with odin because i was using the odin 3.0 sorry odin 307
I have been gone for about 9 months and I was satisfied with my Note 3 being rooted and using a stock ROM. So today I thought I would see what is new in ROMs. First thing was to load the latest custom recovery so I tried updating Goo Manager only to find a new program in the play store called TWRP Manager. I installed it along with a new version of busy box which was required and then installed the latest version of the custom recovery after following the instructions for using Sprint, Note 3, etc. Think it was 2.8.5
Well when I booted into recovery, it loops (stuck) with the message at the top saying:
Recovery Booting....
Recovery is not Seandroid Enforcing
Set Warranty Bit: recovery
Tried pulling out the battery but instead of rebooting into phone, it goes right back into booting into recovery and then i get the dreaded endless loop.
Any thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you can boot into download mode, just flash the recovery again with odin. Something may have been corrupted, you should be ok.
Hey guys I need some help. I have a Verizon Galaxy S4 with NK1. I rooted it by flashing back to NC5 and then rooting then flashing back to NK1, that part worked perfectly fine. I then wanted to install a recovery so I used the CWM app and thats where things went wrong. After doing so it said it did it successfully but when I clicked boot into recovery so I can install CM12 it did not boot into recovery it instead booted straight to the Odin screen with the Android logo in the middle and below it saying "Downloading", and also has the text in the top left corner.
I am hoping someone has an answer on how to fix this.
Thanks!
Also to add onto that I am able to boot up my phone normally its not that its stuck in a boot loop where I can't get past that point. It only happens when I try to go into recovery mode that it take me to the Odin screen. When I do the steps for booting into Recovery it shows the samsung logo and then the blue text that usually comes up in the top left corner flashes for a millisecond and then the screen transitions to the Odin screen
No cm based roms & only safestrap for custom recovery. Spend some time reading what you can & can't do to your phone

Is there any other way I can factory reset my phone and wipe it completely because I can't go into recovery mode.
Have you installed safestrap?

Yessir I installed it, what would be the next step?
Read how to use it. If you installed the recovery (not just the apk), reboot your phone and you'll see the screen and directions how to enter ss recovery.
From there you'll be able to wipe your phone.
Not sure how it'll work with you trying to install cwm. If this doesn't work, odin'ing back to stock and starting over might be your next option (unless someone else can suggest something)
Aslo, if you're stuck in that boot, you can pull the battery,
then hold the volume down, home and power to get the the download screen,
choose restart the phone
this worked for me when I was in a boot loop
This won't fix your recovery mode issue though, but you'll be able to use your phone in the mean time
