I'd use TWRP if I were you and save yourself some headaches. From my understanding, CWM is hit or miss on our beloved Note 3.

First what version of KK where you on when you rooted your device ? Anyway pull battery then reinstall battery. Boot into download mode, then odin flash the version of KK you had before you rooted your phone.
Chances are the device won't boot. DON'T PANIC !!! Happenes all the time, just pull the battery again. Boot into download mode again, and odin flash the stock KK again it should boot the second time.
Once you get it to boot up, check and see what version of KK you are running and make the kernel , modem, and bootloader are the same.
At this point l would odin flash it again to make sure you have a clean install. Now you can root and install a custom recovery. I use TWRP.
IF you have any questions just click rom flashing basics in my signature.

Pull battery boot cold to download mode. From there attempt odin flash of factory tar image. Report back please.

Cant flash any recovery image :(

Hey Guys,
So I was running the google experience rom v3 and I decided to head on over to another rom but forgot to wipe before hand and my phone got a little wonky. I eventually ended up doing a complete Odin factory flash which brought me right back to VRUAMDK, when I went to install the OTA update to VRUAME7 my phone would reboot but would not apply and changes and I would get a notification telling me I cant update. I used an Odin flash to the VRUAME7 stock rom and that worked but for some reason I cant flash any sort of recovery now. Booting into recovery just brings me to download mode. I've tried flashing a recovery with Odin with failures on the write. Did I seriously F&#$ up my Nand? I just want to be able to run a recovery and have my GE S4 back Any help would be majorly appreciated.

The VRUAME7 firmware patched the Loki exploit and therefore you can not install a custom recovery. Right now all you can do is root the device also there is no way to go back to the VRUAMDK firmware.

Wow, am I really that oblivious? apparently.. any reason why this might not work on VRUAMDK either? pretty sure I tried flashing through goomanager on that and ran into the same issue..

Flashed CWM with ROM manger now cannot leave cwm

Hey guys, my friend decided to flash a custom rom, asked me for help, so I told him to get rom manager and install cwm first.
He was rooted already, not long after telling him. To use rom manager to get cwm, he messages me telling me he is stuck cwm, it seems that every time he turns in the phone or restarts he cannot leave cwm at all, he also claims he cannot get into download mode, keeps taking him to cwm.
I got him to and re flash cwm via cwm, but it gave him an error.
Has anyone heard of getting stuck in cwm before??

Get your friend to read the stickies in general, before he flashes anything else and destroys his phone.
Follow the guide to restoring to fully stock using odin on his pc, it might enable the phone to boot normally.

BRICKED

Ok, I'm at work so don't have a lot of time to get into details. Here it is in a nutshell:
I used Josh's MI5 tar to return to stock so that I can get that MJ5 update (if that's what it's called)
That went through w/o incident. However, in my haste I went to Odin and attempted to use Chainfire's root method to regain root on MJ5.
Needless to say that was a huge mistake. It froze during Odin and I was forced to disconnectand pull the battery.
I'm still able to get into Odin but it will not accept the MI3 or MI5 firmware. It gets an error after a few seconds. If I try to get into stock recovery I get FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERD AN ISSIE. PLEASE SELECT RECOVRRY MODE IN KIES AND TRY AGAIN.
Anyone have any advice other than attempting to return the phone?
I'm so pised at myself for making such a dumb mistake.

Here's the website to download Kies from Samsung. Make sure you get Kies 3: www.samsung.com/kies
Good luck! I know how frustrating it can be. Please let us know how it turns out.

I had the same problem and this is how I resolved it.
1) Odin CFautoroot
2) Odin TWRP
3) Boot into recovery and either restore a backup or install ROM of choice.
Don't sweat it bro. Simple fix:
1. Odin Twrp recovery
2. Boot into Recovery right after Odin passes you.
3. Flash a Nand or Rom.
4. Good to Go!
*Also, if you don't have a nand or backup or don't have a Rom downloaded, just download one and put it on you sdcard and then flash it. No need to wipe or factory reset. Rom of choice at this point should be Freeza's Mj4 or any mi5 rom will do!
*Stay away from Kies, waste of time...
Starting to look like the mj4 bootloader changed. Probably to try and prevent the knox safe root method by not allowing downgrading.

OMG, thanks a million bro! I Odin TWRP and it immediately booted into my stock MJ4. I missed the opportunity to get into Recovery right after Odin TWRP. Now when I try to manually get into recovery it takes me to stock recovery.
I'm so afraid of doing anything at this point and am just happy to have a working phone. What would be the best way to go about restoring my nandroid? I'm assuming I should ODIN Twrp recovery again but this time don't allow it to reboot the rom? I'm so nervous I just need some more confirmation before I do anything!
I love you guys in this community...someone always comes through over here when I'm in utter despair!
Boot into twrp recovery and flash your back up. . Once you flash twrp recovery using Odin you won't have to do it again.

Are you saying that after TWRP is flashed via Odin you have to immediately go into recovery? Because after I flashed TWRP in recovery the phone automatically rebooted back into the rom. After this I turned off the phone and tried to manually boot into recovery but it took me to stock recovery despite having just Odin TWRP a few moments earlier. Hope that makes sense.

Once you flash twrp via odin you have to go into twrp recovery before your phone reboots. I usually hold power up, power, and home button right after I hear my pc beep (like when you disconnect the usb). Once in twrp, flash away!

Thanks bro, that did it! I was w/o a phone the whole day at work and really thought my shiit was permi-bricked!
No problem!

When flashing twrp in odin it may help to uncheck auto reboot. Then when it finishes boot it into recovery manually. That way you don't miss the window.

Help sprint note 3 stuck in boot to recovery.

Hi i was trying to flash cwm but now when i boot my phone all i see is samsung galaxy note 3 and on the top left it says :
Recovery booting...
recovery is not seandroid enforcing
set warranty bit:recovery
It just keeps rebooting i took out the battery and it still does this! I cant get into download mode or anything please help.
I used the odin root file (like a re-root) to fix this when it happened to me
Yep me too
More details like android version...the recovery filename would help. As others have stated, try flashing the cf-autoroot file for the SM-N900P
My guess is that your recovery isnt there. This happened to me once and I fixed it by reflashing TWRP thru Odin

Where exactly did you find the odin root file? My phone works perfectly but I can't get into recovery mode to flash any other ROM. Thanks in advance.

No such thing as a odin root file, jpeery88 is correct just didn't say it quite right. First odin is software used to install (flash) rom and recovery (files) into your device (phone). ROMS are stock or custom and rooted. You need to get into download mode to install a custom recovery first before you can flash a custom rom.

This was normally a job for a USB jig. I've not found anything for a note 3 though. You might take the battery out over night and try again.
Maybe with the sd card out as well.
Finally I think I've read an attempt with battery out but plugged into power.
after that its punt and buy a "new to you" one on ebay; they're like $140 now a days.

Canadian S6 Edge soft brick PLS HELP, very detailed explanation of what I've done

I started the night by downloading a rooted kernel for the phone and installed that using ODIN. All good.
Next I installed a TWRP recovery image using the flashify application from the app store. That works and were still good.
Then I had to flash a "modem" and "bootloader" for marshmallow (note I do not really understand what these were for, i was trying to follow a guide).
This is where it went screwy, after flashing these 2 files for my specific device through ODIN, it would not boot.
Im not sure but likely to make things worse, I attempted flashing a new TWRP recovery version because i belived it would work with the modem and bootloader.
Ive now tried flashing the stock firmware using ODIN but i get a FAIL message. Please please help, i only just got the phone and i feel hopeless.

use samsung smart switch to restore ur device to factory settings
it will fix ur phone back to normal
If smart switch doesnt work download your stock firmware from sammobile (make sure its the correct variant. Also were your updating from 5.0 to 6.0?
